RTV

Just got back from filming the saturday/sunday episode of dayTV on RTV
As you can see, we had A BLAST!

Think I'm going crazy... hearing strange sounds coming from outside, but just took a look and there's nothing there! Desperately need some sleep but the last few days I've been quite insomnia prone... Either from a) the adrenaline of running everywhere to make it on time for rehearsals/shows/school or b) Started reading newspapers, but like too much of the good stuff, there's too much going on in this world for my brain to compartmentalize... Whatever it may be, tonight I better get some sleep! :p

Sleeptight ;-)

Singing, talking & melting

I'm so in love with my super cute mini hp laptop! As I'm eating some yummy carrot soup in a little soups n juices bar in the middle of town, I can actually blog at the same time cuz I didn't die dragging along a huge laptop... nope I just slid my small (pink btw, i know,AWESOME!) hp in my purse and barely even felt it!
I am however kinda tired, not from a heavy bag, but from going to bed pretty late after a very intense (and hot!) band rehearsal... crammed in one little room with 6 people and no airco.. trust me don't wear anything grey! Everyone was melting... but it was fun and eventhough we only had a limited amount of time we got through everything and it all actually sounded good so I'm excited to go rock the stage with my band...! 

On another note, I had to get out of bed, or more like roll out of bed, early this morning to go to my very first voice coaching lesson... It's not to learn how to sing or anything but it's so I can finally start talking like a normal person :p haha no my blabbing is pretty standard I think but it's more to learn how to talk without straining my vocal chords, and with the right pronunciation, and to stay on topic during interviews and not completely stray and start talking about my mega cute cat (Gigi)... And it was fun, the lady gave me an introduction, some lecture to take home and pretty soon I'm gonna talk like a rockstar! (or maybe just like a more cleaned up version of Alice, less "euhming" and more sexy and smooth, sweet talking)

How much cuter can a laptop get?!?

Performing @ Den Deugeniet

As I arrived at the venue I was playing at yesterday, "den Deugeniet", I was just hoping that my friends that tagged along wouldn't be too bored... My songs aren't really meant to be brought acoustic, they're supposed to be really loud and crazy but we gave it our best yesterday and as it turned out, it actually worked out pretty well with just a guitar and keyboard. My friends didn't fall asleep and the audience (the usual pub crowd + some younger guys and people from my label) actually seemed enthusiastic or so it seemed (but there was a spot shining in my eyes so maybe I saw wrong :p). I guess when you don't have a full band behind you, there's more room for some vocal experimenting so I had alotta fun. One guy even asked my autograph, although it turned out what they really wanted was my number (I obviously didn't give it) but all in all it was a fun, and great experience and I can't wait for my next performance! 

Thnx to everyone that showed up and I hope you'll come to the next show ;-)

Housewarming

So mentally I'm preparing for my performance tonight, but physically I'm at my sister's housewarming party, so I decided to share it with you guys!

I'm BACK

I know, it's outrageous how lazy I have been with this blog lately, abandoning it was not what I had in mind when I started out so I'm gonna pick up where I left off and this time I'll do my best to post as often as I can! To be honest, I think I might have been reluctant to post because I wanted to tell you guys about super hot and sexy shows that I've played and gigs and TV shows but believe you me, it is hard to get your first single out there! No wonder my mom and dad wanted me to have a back-up plan :p BUT don't worry, this is not me throwing in the towel, it is rather the contrary, the difficulty of succeeding and breaking through is only firing me up to try harder, do more and be better! I mean I am very lucky, my first single is selling good, and I'm in the "tip" hitlist, and my video is being played on national TV, so I'm thrilled but I can't help but want more! 

The biggest hurdle is the national radio. I love Kesha and Katy Perry and all the international stars, I love hearing their songs on the radio but you would think that the country you live in would want to promote national artists as well, but apparently this is not as easy as you'd think... well easy isn't the right word but it's not as straightforward as you'd think. It is very hard to get on the radio, but don't worry I have a plan... gift-baskets! Haha as soon as they taste my gluten-free cupcakes they won't be able to say no :p Ok, I know that might be a bit too simple but I'm just brainstorming out loud here ;-) Whatever happens, I just hope I can keep entertaining you and rocking out on stage! 

Here are the latest updates on what I've been upto, and what's coming up in the near future!
