I just finished another song for my album. I love it.
It's quite interesting to see myself evolve with my song writing. Not so much with the actual lyrics, but with the sound of the music, the sound of the words and how they are sung. I think I'm improving anyway.
I know I've said it before, but wizard rock is such a blessing to me. It has become such a huge part of my life in such a short amount of time, and I'm so grateful for it. I don't care if no one listens to it (okay, that's a complete lie. It would be nice if at least like, three people enjoyed it, just for self-esteem purposes), I'm just so happy that I get to create it.
I was explaining to Erin (my best friend, and possibly my future cousin-in-law, depending on how things work out when Tyler gets home in late 2011 from his mission in Honduras) that I've never had so much joy in writing songs. I've been writing crappy song lyrics and poems since the seventh grade, but now I'm actually putting legitimate effort (as opposed to...illegitimate? HA. The word "illegitimate" always makes me think of Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings and all their illegitimate slave children. But I digress.) into my songs. I just feel happy when I write now. It's lovely :]
On the subject of Tyler, or Elder Wedemeyer, rather, I love reading his weekly emails to everyone. He only gets 30 minutes every Tuesday to write emails, but he does it so well! Tyler has always had a way with words that I could never compare my writing with. He uses such great imagery, it's amazing. I miss his amazingness.
I talked to Jenna (Tyler's sister) last night. Despite her being somewhat under the influence, we had a good (but giggly) heart to heart.
I miss my cousins. They are truly my brother and sister, not my cousins.
And now, I end abruptly, seeing as it's almost 1am and I have extreme issues getting up for my 10am class as it is.
Later days.
Song of the Day: "Broken Stereo" by Sean Fournier. Download his album for free!! It's quite catchy.
