Singing a Song of My Own

Apr. 26, 2009 - -yawn-

Okay, so the Macintosh computer finally decided to die. >=(  With all my stuff on it.  >=(

Alright alright, it isn't THAT bad I guess.  I was able to retrieve about all my stuff.  There's just one more thing I need to get off of it.  A friend of ours thinks the fan probably broke, so it overheats after a while and shuts down.  =P  Annoying.

But still, my stories are going well.  I'm really working on two, Ravenhollow and Shadow of the Sun, but there is one more I'm kinda working on.  Don't have a name for it.  lol  In Ravenhollow I've just about finished chapter seven, in Shadow of the Sun I'm working on chapter nine.  The dark moment.  Bwehehehe...  Yeah... -grin-  In the nameless one, which I call Annebelle after the main character, I'm just writing random scenes right now, not really chapterizing them.  I've gotten bits from the beginning all the way to the dark moment, which is usually around chapter nine.  So all is well in writing land!!

In other news:

I've been playing around with manga style drawing.  Not sure how I like it yet, I still think that that style looks kinda dorky but... -shrug-  It is actually pretty fun to draw that way, not having to worry as much about getting all the proportions right like with realistic drawing.  But whether I end up liking drawing in this style or not, I'm still going to keep up my realistic drawing.  And I have been doing realistic drawing too lately!  I've just about finished a drawing of one of my characters; Annebelle actually. -grin-  If you want to see it and read my characters' ramblings, you can go here:

Last Wednesday me and some friends performed at a seniors' center.  I sang two songs, "Legacy" by Nichole Nordeman and "Set the World on Fire" by Britt Nicole.  Then my friends sang some rounds and played some instruments.  It was fun.  Got a taste of what being a singer is like.  And I loved it.  -is now even more impatient to be a singer-

Then on Friday I worked at my first real job!  I folded t-shirts.  From 8:30am to 4:30pm I stood and folded t-shirts.  Got two fifteen minute breaks and a thirty minute lunch break.  My back, legs, FEET and shoulders were rather sore afterwards.  And sore the next day.  I'm still a little sore.  But it was a good experience!  I'm going back in Monday for a couple hours, then that'll probably be the end of that job.  They just needed extra help because they got a big order.

I found out that Britt Nicole is coming out with a new CD in August!!!  And heard one of the new songs on the radio.  It is awesome!!  -excited about the new CD-

SWEET! I didn't know when Britt Nicole would come out with the next one, but I've already heard Indestructible, which I'm pretty sure is goign to be on there.
I love "Legacy" AND "set the world on fire! " I like your taste in music. ;)

Aug. 9, 2009 - computer dying

Oooh, I cringe when I read about a computer dying with all your valuable stuff on it. Make sure you have a BACK-UP drive, and that you ALWAYS back up everything.
Especially if you have a Mac, you can easily set up "Time Machine" to automatically do it once a day, or however frequently you want it to back up.
Hope you were able to retrieve your files!
