Me and My Music

I'm no guitar genius. I just learned a little something-something. I enjoy it. Well, yeah, the fingertips of my left hand hurt on the early days. But it doesn't. Not anymore. Besides, helps me on my singing and songwriting. (Geez, I feel more and more like Taylor Swift every day!) I'm trying to do the chord progression for "Don't Rush", but... I'm stuck! It's supposed to be an upbeat rock-ish song (Like Miley, Demi Lovato, or Paramore) but I keep on playing on G-Em7-Cadd9-D unconsciously. It's not bad, but it doesn't fit the song. I don't wanna use the D-A-Em-G because too many songs use that already.

What the heck. I'll figure something out.

Speaking of guitar... Since I don't play any other instruments that can help me with my music, I've been learning some songs and planning to do covers for it. Damn it! I just remembered that I promised Daniel to do Cascada's "Evacuate The Dancefloor". Maybe I should make an acoustic version of it. Maybe I should make the acoustic versions of that kind of music; Cascada, Lady Gaga, Jesse McCartney...

Great. Now I feel like Kris Allen. Always with a guitar. Not that it's bad, but... come on. I've never been a fan of him. I'm always for Adam Lambert when they were in Idol. Though it is kinda unique to turn a dance music into an acoustic. Look up Kris Allen's cover of Kanye West's "Heartless". Kanye's voice was, like, synthesized in his original song. Kris' version is... acoustic. And it's pretty good. I don't see anything bad about it. My range is probably almost the same as Kris (Except that I'm a girl. Alto.)

Bottom line is... music is freedom. I'm free to write or sing about anything. Anything I want. What the heck. Eff what people said!

Song of the entry is No Boundaries by Adam Lambert/Kris Allen (I like Adam's because his unique vocals, Kris' because his guitar playing lol)

"Twisted Fairytale"

I decided to start over and write a new novel. Here's the link.
http://www.worthyofpublishing.com/book.asp?book_ID=2488
Some of the characters and events are based on real life. Some.... aren't. This is some kind of a free therapy session for myself, and hopefully, my readers. I'm trying to tell everyone that we're stronger than we thought.

It's only three chapters so far. I'm working on my fourth chapter right now. But I already got positive feedbacks that motivates to continue writing.

I'm hoping that someday Hollywood will make a movie out of it. That's my goal. I'd love to hear those teenage girls scream my name outside my hotel. I'd love to meet people who reads my book at my book tour. I'd love to have groupies.

I'm still holding myself back to not show this to any of my family member. But when I came out with this, it's gonna be a bang. I know it.

Song of the entry is "When I Grow Up" by Pussycat Dolls

Don't Rush

I grab the phone and call up Holly
See if she wanna catch a movie
But she says, "Sorry, but I'll pass
I gotta clean up my boyfriend's mess,"

Where did everybody go?
I don't know my friends anymore
Ever since they go out with those boys
Who treats them like toys

[Refrains:]
I wanna be free to do what I want to
Don't wanna get tied up to my boo
We girls can easily blush
But it's all just a crush
So don't rush

One day I sit at lunch with Skye
She keeps on texting her guy
And talk about how good he is at Fine Arts
Oh well, he stole her heart

I don't wanna be one of them
I'm not gonna fall for their game
I'm not gonna give up my childhood for
Something that'd do no good, 'cuz

[Refrains:]
I wanna be free to do what I want to
Don't wanna get tied up to my boo
We girls can easily blush
But it's all just a crush
So don't rush

Don't rush, 'cuz it's just a crush
That makes you blush all these times
Don't cry, instead say goodbye
To all his lies he said to you

Holly comes up to me crying
Over her boyfriend 'cuz he's cheating on her
And Skye gets very upset
'Cuz it turns out that she's just a bet

[Refrains:]
I wanna be free to do what I want to
Don't wanna get tied up to my boo
We girls can easily blush
But it's all just a crush
So don't rush
Don't rush 'cuz it's just a crush

Hey, baby don't rush.

I wrote this song for all the 'single ladies' out there. I know it's not that good, but I'm a little out of words right now...
