Things are good here. Just about to finished up with week #1.. We are all pretty mentally and physically exhausted, but the kids are already showing great progress so that keeps us all motivated!! . Our nights consist of dinner by 6 and bed by 9... Kinda pathetic really.. We wake up at 6, work out, and then do physical work from 8-430 so i guess it makes sense, just not what I am used to. Hopefully by next week our jet lag will fade and we will do a bit more exploring.. (I hope)!
The week before I left I was very busy exploring and writing!! Turns out there is a lake 15 minutes from my apartment. It's beautiful! I met some more awesome new friends and they just so happen to have a boat so we did what anyone should do with a boat and went boating!! Woohoo!! Nashville is like everything I loved about Wyoming, combined with most things I love about Cali, just add it's own southern uniqueness.. And.. It's perfect!!!
The cowriting sessions went really well.. One was slightly frustrating at the beginning...it was our first time writitng together and that can always be a bit of an adjustment.. However, when we met for the 2nd session it went much better and our song turned out pretty cool.. Most Arists/musicians are very opinionated people with their own way of doing things so when you put two artists/strangers from different backgrounds together. and tell them to write a song.. there is going to be challenges, egos, opinions, etc...It may turn out great or...it may be disasterous!! Luckily ours came together. So...that is one of my new goals... Write with as many people as possible whether we clique or not, so I can become a better writer., as well as a better, more patient, tolerant and accepting person.
Thanks for following along!!
Cheers
