What I know for sure:
If I don’t make music: -no one will care -my head will blow up -I’ll live a normal life -my existence will be dismally uneventful -I’ll probably develop a passion for ebay -my relationships will suck -showers won’t be exciting anymore -I’ll care a lot more about my grades -I’ll stop dating musicians -I’ll feel a lot like what I feel like right...

So, I’ve been at Stanford for what feels like years now, entirely neglecting my musical career. What have I become… My producer nick says we need to get people hyped on my new album, coming out November the ?, 200?. Yeah. So, I’m 21 on Monday and having an existentialist crisis, but not really. I’m just kinda like, “where’s my music?” and...

Recap of my life. There’s been a lull in the recording process of late, even though we’ve got some very promising songs in the making. First Carlos was out of town and now nick won’t be able to record till NEXT Thursday and thenhe leaves AGAIN. In conclusion, my nails are short. On the bright side today I got a membership to a gym (to tone up before school…for two whole...

advocating working on weekends
This blogging thing is becoming an addiction. Nick left the office after editing “spell shop” and the drum track for our next hitoramee. Now I’m here with Colin and he’s pimping my myspace, and doing a beautiful job of it. In the meantime I’m editing a video of one of our practices (which will soon be posted for all to see). I can’t believe how productive these...

edit THIS.
So I’m at the office right now, and we’re editing the last version of “lady in the spell shop.” It’s taking a long time. But that’s ok. Because it’s going to blow Antarctica out of the water…and you. If any of you have ever heard someone editing music or video or something, you know that it sounds like musical aliens attacking the globe. It’s...

deep sorrow
but not really. More like…frustration. And disappointment. “the lady in the spell shop” is still in need of vocals. Yes, this project that was only supposed to take a week per song has taken more than a month and we still have yet to produce one track.  And the masses are protesting.  Well, not really but they would if they knew what they were missing.  I don’t even know...

There's someone in my life who...
What if I had a series of blogs that all began with that? For example: There’s someone in my life who has a boyfriend who doesn’t deserve her, but she thinks he does, but I think she’s wrong. Would that be creepy? Would it be insulting? Or presumptuous? Because I don’t want to hurt feelings…but then again, if I’m not revealing any names, no one will know. Except...

Good News...
…and I don’t mean the Bible…although in comparison this isn’t all that important. But still. This is kind of important. Not in the scope of eternity. We haven’t saved any lives or cured any diseases. Yet. But we’re recording. Yep. It’s pretty insanely cool. We started out with drums and then did bass and then keyboard and then vocals and then more vocals....

Haze
Last night, something changed. I can’t tell you what, but I feel that it is extremely important. I’ve gone about my morning in a total haze. My alarm didn’t go off, so I slept extremely well till I flew out of my bed around 8:00. And I don’t mean like birds fly, I mean like projectiles fly off of an exploding car in one of those high speed movies. …Long analogy. No wait, comparison. Gosh, I took...

Not Worrying
Functioning showers are a blessing—one that far too many people take overlook. Today, like yesterday, began with a bird bath: me frantically scooping water that was dripping from the faucet. I don’t know whether it’s water pressure or something in the pipes, or an underground plot contrived by genetically modified rats planning to take over the world, but one thing’s for sure: it’s a real bummer....

Little Birdies
Blog by Nu Ingenue (musician/vocalist/songwriter) Commentary by Colin Wright (designer) So I’m really bad at all of this blogging stuff. It’s not that I don’t WANT to keep people updated on my thrilling life. It’s just that…well there’s nothing really thrilling about it for the moment. I think you might be surprised what people find interesting about other people’s every day lives. What is...
