9: BACK WITH A VENGEANCE :-)



Well hello world!! 
I am back from Australia!! I have been back for a few days now, but for some reason had difficulty this time round getting back on a normal schedule..so I have been sleeping A LOT!!
Melbourne was a success...Recap: (I went to Australia for 3 weeks with the company I used to work for in LA. We provide intensive therapy for children with disabilities) The kids did awesome and made great progress/improvements...always rewarding :-) ...We also met some amazing people and made some life long friendships with the families. I miss them already. COME VISIT!!
On our free time we were able to attend an AFL game (Australian football League) which was pretty cool. The boys wear short..SHORT, shorts..BONUS FOR US!! ?? haha..We also did a few day trips which were so much fun!! We got to go climb some trees in an adult obstacle course which also included zip lining...IT WAS HILARIOUS watching all of us try to land on our feet..AMAZING..the videos are priceless. I may just have to post a few below :-) We went to Phillip Island to see the Penguins..I was bummed I didn't see any do the penguin slide on their belly..They were pretty cute tho. The following weekend we went on a wine tour through Yara Valley. It was awesome..Interesting part of the story...I missed the shuttle to the winery because I was locked out of the apartment with a dead cell phone..So.. In tears and my clothes from the night before.. I spent 120 dollars in a cab and met up with the rest of the crew..Poor cab driver...The cab fair was very worth it..And I think my friends and our shuttle driver who got to see me roll up in a cab an hour late at their first winery thought so too..:-) HAHA. So embarrassing..Made for an interesting day..
Anywhoo..Saying goodbye to our new friends wasn't easy...but after sharing an apartment with 6 girls, 5 beds (i had to share) and only 2 keys...and..knowing I would be coming back to summer, music and my own place/bed, made it a tad bit easier. :-)

Now...I am back with a vengeance and ready to focus 1000000 percent on music. I will be working on writing my new album...FINALLY!! AND.....I get to start the hunt for my new band mates so I can start performing around town. YAY!! I  have several co-writes in the books, so I am looking forward to that as well!! Got to keep moving forward. :-)
Well, Back to work!!
