Dumb Ways To Die (Cover)

I've been having such a terrible month. Trying to balance so many activities all at the same time, getting rushed to the infirmary, getting injured once again, laptop crashing, and getting random panic attacks due to over stress (the negative list could go on and on).. I am very exhausted but I know He has helped me through it all and I know he will continue to help me still.

I've always wanted to cover this song. It's beautifully made and I love how every word from the song speaks to me personally. Hope it speaks and enlightens you as well!

One thing I've learned from having to go through hardships is that it really makes you stronger and wiser so if you're going through something now, hang in there and ALWAYS look at the bright side. He will help you and He will show you the way to back to your beautiful :-)

Have a lovely day!

LYRICS
I'm stronger than before
Stronger than I'll ever be
And I raise my eyes to the One
The One who made me see
All what I thought was lost
But now is found
And I'm grateful

Grateful for the day
You called my name
Ever since You walked into the door
It's never been the same
Mornings are brighter now
I'm not afraid
And I wake up each day
With a smile on my face

Coz I've been in places
Where I couldn't even see
The light of day
And then You came

I'm grateful
You showed me the way back to my beautiful

Everything seems different now
Things are turned inside out
With a new pair of senses to go with around
It doesn't even matter
If I'm up or down

Blues are bluer
Smiles are brighter
It draws a tear whenever
I watch the sunsets paint the sky
I don't even mind walking under the rain
I never laughed like this before
And I'm gonna say it once more

THANK YOU SO MUCH LUIS CORTEZ FOR PLAYING THE GUITAR FOR ME!!!! <3

The Moon Song (Karen O Cover)

Music and lyrics by me

She was just a lonely girl sitting by the benches 
Hoping for something or someone to brighten up her life

Didn’t know that she could be something big and someone worth the time 

Oh but time had changed
And she opened up her heart
To the million possibilities

She was just a lost girl in space
Searching for a meaning to the life that she was living

And now she’s got that smile on her face
That could launch a thousand rockets into the space
Dreams now as big as the universe
That’s what she did now she’s found

Found in love
Found in hope
Found in adventure
Found in peace
Found in family
Found in friends
Found in laughter and in tears

Lost Girl

This is my very first Vibration Exercise. 

What is a Vibration Exercise?
You have 30 minutes to make a track, render, then delete the file. 

Thank you Logiclub for introducing me to this practice! 


Sunrise (Vibration Exercise #1)

Love You More

Wrote this song for a friend who fought cancer with a smile. He's one of the people who really inspires me and I feel so blessed to have met such an amazing human. This song is for him. He is my miracle mountain. :)

Thank you for everything, Carlos. The thought of you in heaven continues to inspire me to live life to the fullest.

Lyrics:
All we do is pray for one
Still hoping for that big bright sun
That would take away all the pain
And get the strength, the strength to gain
To lift us up, and make us strong all our days

But you are a miracle
Our source of hope when waves get rough
You remind us to live, to start and never stop 
And hope to reach the very top of the mountain
Your beautiful mountain
 
All we do is work and beat around the bush
Still fighting for what’s right to get that little push
We wanna take away all the pain 
And get the strength, the strength to gain
To lift us up, and make us strong evermore

But you are our miracle
Our source of hope when waves get rough
You remind us to live, to start and never stop
And hope to reach the very top of the mountain
Your miracle mountain

You remind us to live, to love, and never stop
And hope to reach the very top 
To live, to love, and never stop 
And hope to reach the very top

Miracle Mountain
