:)

Sorry that I haven't been blogging lately. I was really busy with school and my project.
FINALLY... it's the weekend.

Anyway, I was SUPPOSED to present my project on Thursday, but due to our early dismissal, the class was shorter and I didn't.
Then, I was going to present today, but for some reason, I didn't.
So now, I'm presenting on Monday. Hopefully.
Aha, yeah. I will present on Monday.

Apparently, I've been dragging Tino all around my school for the past day or two. It's quite fun, actually, since two of my friends were fighting over Tino. They wanted to carry him around the school for me.

I also liked playing guitar in my art class. Especially when we have free time. Which I did, haha, but one of my friends (who is really good at guitar) kept "stealing" him away from me. :(
Haha.

Yeah, he's that famous.

Notebook Paper.

I don't remember posting this song here but I have a pic of the chorus of it.





I found it in my old songbook.
Dunno what inspired me to write it. I forget easily.





I apologize for the short post. :(

Another Day of Boredom... and Music Videos.

Another Saturday has passed... boring as ever. Well, not really. The evenings tend to get a little boring. There isn't much to do, besides ranting on this blog, which by the way, (if you prefer text talk, then I'll say BTW) is literally my refuge to get outta boredom.
Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.


I've been obsessed with a few songs lately... AND their music videos. Here it goes.

1. Who says- Selena Gomez
 
I just love the message to this song! And Selena Gomez is pretty awesome. 


2. The Fray- Never Say Never

I used to be obsessed with this song!

3. Long Distance- Bruno Mars (no music video- just lyrics)

I just love the beat of this song... and Bruno Mars's voice. :)


4.
I just love this song. The music video is really nice too. It's different. 
Well, here it is. Four of some of the songs and music videos that I'm currently addicted to. Yes, I realize that it's different from my "Five Fav Songs" list on the side of the blog. (check it out!)

Project Time... Once Again

I wrote about half of a song yesterday for my project.
Here it goes.

Think about the memories,
Save them like a keepsakes in your heart.

I know we're on different journeys,
But keep an image in your mind.

It doesn't have to be in a frame,
You don't have to look at it every day.
Just take a glance every once in a while,
I hope it makes you smile.

*chorus*
Everywhere I go, my mind wanders away,
A flashback pops in my head, driving me insane,
And you will come and go, like time ticking each day.
The memories are in my heart, like a picture,
In a picture frame.

That's all I've got!

Over-and-out.

Project time!

I finally found the song I'm going to use for my project!!
It's called Don't Let Go. (CLICK ON IT!!! haha.)

Yeah, I love using links in my posts. It's fun. I'm hyper now.

For this song, I'm only going to be recording the chorus and posting it onto my powerpoint. Although I've been complaining about not having any equipment for recording, I am going to work in the music room at my school. Omigosh! It's amazing! There's a lot of music equipment there! What a dream come true. :)

Unfortunately the presentation has to be a maximum of 5 minutes long. 

I'm still crossing my fingers and hopefully I will end up posting my first "recorded" song on here soon!

holaholahola.

My Spanish is legit.
Anyway, it's pretty ironic how I end up adding posts for 4 days in a row or something, then I stop posting for 3 days, and start posting again. It seems to be a trend.

So, I'm working on a project. It's called ENEX. (Enrichment Exploration.)
Yes, it sounds cool. Very cool.
We have to choose a topic for either
1. a future career
OR
2. a passion

I chose something somewhat in the middle... more on the passion side.
Can you guess? It's quite obvious.
Music Recording/Production!!!!

It's a powerpoint presentaion and I'm also going to create background music. Along with the music, I'm going to play Tino and sing an original. Yes, I'm hoping to get high marks for the "wow factor."

It's due in 3 weeks. Thank goodness I'm ALMOST done. Kind of. At least I'm not procrastinating. 

I'm crossing my fingers!!!

We All Have Been Disturbed. Don't Deny.

I've been remembering flashbacks and memories lately. Some of which I don't even want to look back onto. It's kind of giving me the creeps.

Here it goes.

As I was inspecting my retainer (when I say inspect, I just mean randomly observing.. when I say that, I mean just staring at it.) I remembered an incident where I was about 4 years old. I walked into the bathroom and I found a cup that had my grandma's dentures in it. I will say no more, considering how disturbed you might be.

You know those little toys where you squeeze their heads and suddenly their eyes pop out. Yeah, that was what I looked like.

Long story short, I was scarred.

Anyway, I'm still writing songs, and I came up with this as I was trying to control my friend's hyperactive sister. Since I was too busy trying to control her and stop her from poking my eyes out and eating my ears, I only wrote a verse... basically 4 lines.

"If I come any closer to you,
I might just regret.
I can't go back cause if I do,
I know I'll get hurt."

Over and Out.

Home "Sweet" Home.


I've been home all day long. Gee, how wonderful, isn't it? What a great way to spend my spring break. I think this day has been wasted. I mean, seriously, I could have written a song.

But I didn’t.
I could have gone out. But I didn’t. I could have played outside; mainly because for once it’s actually nice outside. But I didn’t. I could have-

Yeah, you get the point.

I just didn’t, okay? I stayed home, sat comfortably on my sofa wearing my sweatpants, watched TV and didn’t do anything productive. Well, actually there was something productive.
I ate.

Eating food is quite an important and productive thing to do. If you don’t agree, then prove me wrong. I mean, eating is one of the ways that you’re healthy and ALIVE. Am I correct? When am I NOT correct? Probably one in a million.

I think I stretched that out a bit too far. Okay, I’ll go with one in a thousand.

Fine, fine. Okay. One in a hundred. Don’t push it.

As of right now, I’m sitting here with a notebook and a pen trying to come up with a new song. Honestly, I think I’ll end up coming up with a song at 3:00 AM, when I’m in the middle of a wacky dream.
When that happens, I don’t want to get out of my cozy bed and to my bookshelf and go through my however many notebooks I have until I find my songbook and try to write in the dark. Once I’m done, I get thirsty and I think to myself “Dude, you just wrote an awesome song. Now you must reward yourself with a cold glass of H2O.” 

Yes, I used a scientific term. 

Back to the story of my life. Do I go get a glass of H2O?

The answer my friend, is no. Why? Due to the fact that when a person, or to be exact, a family is asleep, people generally turn their lights off. Especially when it’s nighttime. No lights equal darkness. I don’t  like to go down the stairs when it’s dark and I prefer not to even walk around the house when I can barely see what I’m doing or where I’m going. I don’t have night vision. I consider you awesome if you do have night vision.

In other words, I’m too lazy to go downstairs, (in the dark!) and get a glass of water, then actually drink the water and go back up. 

Story time is over. 

Bytheway, I’m in the mood for a soft, chewy, chocolaty cookie. Yum. :)

Hello Noobie

I feel like I'm walking around in circles because I have nowhere to go with my so called "brilliant" idea of writing random gibberish on the blog other than my music. I've tried to make this blog as interesting as possible, but since it's coming from me, I doubt it will be interesting.... It will be AH-MAZING.

Enough said.

Besides, I just named it "A Peek Inside a Music Freak's Life" right? So I'm bound to tell you about my life, however boring you may find it.

I'm still walking around in circles and to be frank, I'm dizzy. Can I sit somewhere?

Also, I was searching through some songs and I found some that I recognized. I used to listen to them way back when I used to stare out the window pretending I was in a movie. Pssssh... I don't do that now.
In other words, I used to hear this on the radio quite a while ago and I'm pleased to hear it again.

It's a shame that I saw the music video for the first time today...


Stop and Stare- One Republic

I also get very annoyed at the adds they show in between some videos. I mean, I get it "Swifer gives cleaning a whole new meaning." I've used it before now stop reminding me, please. Also, I know it rhymes. That's cool. Yo.

R-r-r-ranting.

From what I know, April Fools ends at 12:00 PM. So three hours and thirty-two minutes have passed April Fools and honestly, I didn't prank anyone.

Go figure. I woke up at noon anyways. C'mon, it's spring break.

Don't get me wrong, I did get pranked. Let's just say, I've been pranked by my mind. My brain. My imagination. Whatever it is you want to call it, it's was in my head. And I was pranked while I was asleep.

It's quite easy to get fooled in your dreams. I mean, you can't control them, right?

Let me just sum it up. My dream involved me being apart of Dancing with the Stars and some of my friends who are boys wearing a skirt.

I have no clue how I came up with that and I hope that I will never come across that again.

Enough about that. I realized that this blog is full of mumbo-jumbo of all my songs. I think it's pretty awesome but I don't want you to read this blog and suddenly fall on your keyboard and start snoring. That's not what I intended. I've decided to also post random things about my life, or some posts about me ranting about a certain topic. And I'll add a bit of lyrics and poetry.

I've also decided to change the name of this blog. The URL is the same www.music-in-writing.blogspot.com but instead of "Music in Writing," I changed it to "A Peek Inside A Music Freak's Life."
I thought it will give it a little more character.

I hope this doesn't confuse you.
