"Marry your best friend. I do not say that lightly. Really, truly find the strongest, happiest friendship in the person you fall in love with. Someone who speaks highly of you. Someone you can laugh with. The kind of laughs that make your belly ache, and your nose snort. The embarrassing, earnest, healing kind of laughs. Wit is important. Life is too short not to love someone who lets you be a fool with them. Make sure they are somebody who lets you cry, too. Despair will come. Find someone that you want to be there with you through those times. Most importantly, marry the one that makes passion, love, and madness combine and course through you. A love that will never dilute - even when the waters get deep, and dark."

Sorry I’m so late in replying! Answer: I was buying ALL THE THINGS. No really, remember how I complained about the friend who asked me to take a super heavy suitcase? I became the friend. I checked two 66-pound suitcases, brought one carry-on and a guitar on my back, and kindly asked my little sis and my dad to bring an electric bass and a ukulele, aside from their own stuff. Heh. :)

I’m back home and feeling all sorts of jet-lagged. So much so that I typed jeg-latted the first two times.

Né?! P.S. I wish I could stop by to see you guys! :(

That’s what I’m saying! But for some reason, when you travel to and from Brazil the luggage weight limit is higher—71 lbs. each suitcase—so I’m just gonna take 6 lbs. worth of stuff out… or else she’ll end up paying for my back surgery, too. 

funny story: I agreed to take my friend’s suitcase to the US before I found out it wEIGHS SEVENTY-SEVEN POUNDS.

So. This was my very first freelance in songwriting back in 2006, for a Greenpeace ad. This is sort of a “revisited” version — I don’t think I knew what I was doing back then (and I still don’t!).

All I remember from their briefing is that I needed to write about how we’ve become careless and need to take care of the world better, Greenpeace style. Interesting how a recent song of mine also picked up on this same theme, but in a more personal POV…

I think my never-ending to-do list and overworked brain are getting in the way.
