Haha, you aren't alone there. My family is my life and getting ready to go to college is about to kill me. I don't want to leave them. So I'm considering taking a semester off and working on my dream, so that if I made it, I could just take my family with me. I need them to survive.

It's a breath of fresh air to meet someone with a passion for music like mine, but also respects their family needs. Does your family support you?

We have a lot of labels around here in Florida that are strictly for Indie.

It's nice to meet you. How long until you graduate?

Do you have a specific label in my mind?

Oh, and we never got around to this; I'm Jai.

If you look around your state, there's usually producers willing to help out. Ya know, give you a push in the business. It took me forever, but I eventually found one. Call around, find some people to put together a demo for you. Ever considered covering a song as a demo?

Hence, there were no girl musicians on that list I gave you. I never will -nor have I- enhanced myself. I mean, if you want to do that, what are your fans going to think when they show up at your show and you aren't what they expect? I won't label myself in a group with "hollywood babes." Ya know? I'm there for the music, and music only.

Musical Influences? Well I have a lot of different ones. A big influence though, happens to be the Jonas Brothers. I'm sure they are not your cup of tea, though. But there are others like Leann Rhymes, who I happen to have vocals like. Very powerful ones. So that plays a role in my style. Then there's The Beatles, Beach Boys, Secondhand Serenade, Aerosmith, Elvis Presley, Journey, Deff Leppard, Bon Jovi, Pink Floyd, Kiss, The Who, REO Speedwagon, Starship, Elvis Costello, etc... Yeah, I'm very versatile.

Hm..when I say it, I don't really mean just one. Kind of a mix of both. But I guess leaning more towards...a rockish punk.

well then, can you atleast elaborate?? instead of saying negitive things about my journals how about constructive critisim aye?? like for instance what it is that im doing wrong. ohh like i said in my other journal "you should judge my journals by the contents of the writing, not how it is presented...

There are actually a lot of people who hate christmas, but im not one of 'em, i love it
:D

OI cant u tell by my journal dat im not in da best mood. so why do you have to come in and critsize (i no its spelt wrong, well atleast i think it is) me HUH?

:) Its alrite, it looked like you would love christmas for the rest of you life
its great.

Yeah, I definitely agree with you. The lyrics are drowned out, not necessarily because of the recording only but because, as I was told, they didn't have a microphone so it was sung without one. I guess they're more pop-punk than punk rock, but either way I think, rough recordings aside they're pretty good. Thank you for listening. =]

no prob :)
yeah, sometimes thoughts pop in the head and you have to write them
x)

Yeah..its ten past nine here...I owuld recommend sleep!
Sweet Dreams my new friend!

=D

Good on you! Make the most of it while you can!
Well, I must leave you, as my bed-time approaches...yes I have a bed-time curfew.

Love lots (<--Platonic of Course) and enjoy your night! Talk to you later!

=)

Aww man thats awful, I feel for you terribly.
Well tomorrow is the last day of term, so I am pretty stoked to be getting my two week break...but of course me saying that wont make you feel any better...so apologies!

Life is generally really good apart from my boy-troubles lol

=D

Ahh good times. =D

*Basks in Flight of the Conchord Glory*

So how are things for you in your life?

Haha FotC reference for the win!

So how is life?

*Murray: Hey Greg?

Greg: Yes Murray?

Murray: Would you consider us to be friends?

Greg: Why, yes Murray I would.

Murray: Well we're not. We're colleagues. Just thought I'd clarify.*

^Hehe one of my favourite skits!

You are very nice by the way, ;)
Thankyou for helping me out, you are very sweet!

=)

Yeah I did, and it isnt her that I have the issue with. We all have a really tight bond, we would never do anything against each other...and it helps that she is head over heels for another guy!

And thankyou..I'm sure there will be, maybe! That is if I dont abstain from the world of men entirely!

By the way, Murray is the best character on Flight of the Conchords...him and Mel lol
