Yes it has been weeks since I've posted and all 2 of you are wondering WHY? But the truth is I got really busy and any free time I have is either spent writing songs or catching up on sleep. So right now I have a few minutes to catch you up on what's happened.
Well life on the island is slowing down and people are leaving which makes the population about 1000 lol. So now that theres no traffic illegally go 60 on a 30mph and not get in trouble, not that I have...ok maybe a few times but I needed chocolate. Well since everything is closing life is kind of slow outside of our little 22 acre property...but inside this little bubble.............AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!! Life is speeding up and driving some people to madness...ok that's a little over the edge but things are getting tense now that things are moving faster. This week I have to perform and record a bunch of music so my techie can master it for me and for his grade. So tomorrow morning I have to wake up early and go record some stuff and lay down the drums and bass. Oh man.
I do have a story for you....
So Thursday night I was laying in bed and I got a knock at my back door...it was a manager telling me that Tom (one of our teachers) had gotten me and 2 other girls free tickets and backstage passes to the meet and greet for KELLY CLARKSON! the person I have looked up to for the late 7 years of my life. It was so unreal. The next day we got in my car got on the ferry after some trouble and then we drove a few hours to the show at Mohegan Arena/Casino lol. We ran around and finally got our tickets. Kate and Jill (Alum of CMC) aka Kelly's Background Vocals came out to meet us and they hung out and talked with us for a while and then they met us backstage to bring us into see Kelly. My heart was racing. They brought us into Kelly and she was amazing! Super sweet and she gave me a hug and then we talked about the fudge on the island that's amazing and how we like it at CMC and then she said..."Oh yeah we're going there in like a week...right?" I was like oh my goodness I could see you again in a week??? I love my life. lol Then Jill and Kate gave us a tour of backstage and all the dressing rooms, then they brought us back to our seats from behind the stage. It was awesome. I am so blessed to have this opportunity even though I get to meet cool people I still have no idea what I'm suppose to do with my life. But some how I keep getting brought back to this place of meeting really good connections with artists and songwriters and producers and managers.
I'm still asking "God what the heck am I suppose to do?"
I suppose I will always ask that but I'm just gonna keep walking and see what happens.
Well for now I'm gonna go to bed and wake up early and then play some music.
God By You my Friends,
Hannah

ReplyDeletethis is a philosophy I have embraced. I don't know what's ahead, but for now I've done what I can to be where I am. Doesn't mean I'll be here the rest of my life, but I know God will use it to take me to the next adventure, so I can trust him and can enjoy the moment because he's got the rest covered.
anyway, my two cents. I'm excited to see what God does with you and in you!
I LOVE LOVE LOOOOOVE Kelly Clarkson and that is a freaking awesome story.
ReplyDeleteAnd ditto to what Nathan said. Take everything in right now. Think about whats next later.
I had to be reminded of that pretty much every week while I was on my semester adventure. lol Ill be sure to remind you.
thanks for the update!
It's definitely been an interesting adventure for me a lot different then I thought it would be...it was always that idea that this semester would make or break me...right now I'm broken but I know God is going to use my brokenness to bring about His good and perfect will...it's just hard when I'm broken. But it will be worth it. Thanks for your reminders I really needed them. Love you both.
