"She's always leavin' without saying goodbye, she knows I never get mad. She feels the music and meaning, I'm good at makin' her laugh" my song *grin* By Christian Wilson
Again, I have no idea where to begin. For the majority, things have been amazing in my life. I have always believed that things happen for a reason and it's never been more true than right now in my life. Even though I am well aware of how much music plays a part in my life, but more than ever, it has helped me get through some challenging situations I have had as late on top of just making me feel so happy in general. Thinking about it, most of my good friends I have met through shows or people involved with music and I'm very fortunate to have had all the experiences I've had to gain those friendships. Last night I was reminising about how it all began in Orlando and Atlanta with my love of local music and where it has brought me today. It's amazing that we had to all go through certain paths to make it where we are today. It was totally worth it. Worth it to go through the happy times, worth it to see who actually is still worth the friendship today and worth it to discover who I might meet next. So many great things have stemmed from experiences and challenges in my past and I have no regrets. There are no regrets to have because they are all learning experiences and they all had to have happened for me to understand what is right for me.
If you haven't heard of them yet, please look the following up because they are what I am stuck to currently:
*Christian Wilson & The Wayward Sons - my song *grin* & "Morning Comes" & "I-10" and so many more..
*Randall Shreve "The Entertainer" - "ExtraOrdinary" (comes out October 14th - pre-order!)
*Jack's Mannequin "The Glass Passenger" - "Crashin"
*The Bridges - "One Way"
*Georgia - "My Room"
*All-American Rejects - "Gives You."
*Butch Walker - "Ships In a Bottle"
*Rush of Fools - "Undo" & "Lose it all"
*Seabird - "Rescue"
I *love* where I live. Julie and I have the best house ever. Affectionately called the Sunny Days Motel, it's yellow, for one. Has a great pool, for two. Thirdly, great neighbors. I can go on and on..a neighborhood that actually is safe to walk around, Starbucks & Publix in walking distance and five minutes from downtown. Happiness, I tell ya. I pretty much heart it. I'm super glad everything's worked out with my living situation finally. I'm so done with apartments.
Currently, it's my favorite time of year at work. Just finished up with NOJ with ROF and had a blast with those kids! They were amazing! One of my favorite tours for sure! Working on F&W now with SS coming up and perhaps some additional projects. The weather is our "fall" with a little less humidity, which makes me happy! I had my "Baked" boys on tour (third year consecutively, thanks to Ken!) and I heart them! Now, just seeing where things might lead me. It's nice to have five years under my belt at WDW and I'm so proud that my five year plan has been extremely successful. I couldn't ask for more professionally. I have been so blessed in all of my tours that I have been fortunate to have toured. I really don't know how, but I can only be very thankful. I have said it before, but I'm so content in my past tours that any additional ones are pure bonuses. After RT, JBs, CK, JF (w/JS) , ROF, MB and all my NOJ, Grads & Events and countless amazing Guest Tours, I'm super happy! Which leads me to saying that I am completely open-minded to future endeavors to further my career and make magic through other loves of mine. We shall see where that may lead. *wink*
Going back to the theory that things happen for a reason, I shall bring up my amazing family status. I feel so complete now. Probably not even noticing how much that I was missing before, I am now so happy to have my family reunited. I'm not really even sure how to describe it, but I love having my brother back in my life. I think perhaps it might have taken as long as it did, because it was suppose to for some reason beyond me needing to know, but regardless it's perfect now. Family has taken on a more important meaning to me as well through this entire experience. Family means always having your back, family means always being there even just to listen, family means forgiving regardless of differences, family means asking and giving advice, but not pushing it to be used. Family is a connection and love. So basically, I'm very full of love and learning a lot about my family. And for those who prefer facebook, I love myspace. *grin*
So that's my update so far....perhaps I will update again soon if I get the time...and if I'm in the mood
