We Love OUR Ssekos!!!!! (Im in the Gold ribbons!) Sandra aka twinny in blue and Robinah in red.

:)

I want my new album cover to look like this. A New Me.

Deep thoughts going through my mind. Summer 2011.....

Well so far, this summer has been pretty decent and not as bad as I thought it would be. I met a lot of awesome people, hung out with my friends, well when I say friends, its more like, Hannah really, and of course the other besties, Beatrice, Serraine, and Sandra aka Twinny. (Remember Twinny, texting each other on facebook when we were just next to each other? We both have a problem) I have been in studio non stop, and very stoked that my new album A New Me, is done. I also started an online reality show with Hannah, which is more like us being silly and didn't think it was serious at all, until we started getting interests from Club Beer on how they might be able to sponsor us, Rad huh? 

I performed a few shows here and there with the two coolest guitar players, Aaron and Eric. I'm still amazed on how majorly talented they are. They have really helped out in this album, and produced a few songs on the new record. 

I went out. Partied. Had meetings. Ate at Javaz. Went to the movies. Attended a wedding. Got a new radio job on 94.8 XFM!!!!!! 

Babysitted big momma alot, who can now say "bye" and kinda say my name "Cho Cho" you know as in Rachel, well hey at least its better than Jaja, I will leave that one for my momma. :) I have been playing the "mom" role in the house, worrying about bills, food at home, meds for the girls, making sure studio is okay,changing big momma's pamper, everything, I even got scared and caught myself being a "mother" when I was so mad at the girls that we sponsor at home, cause they came back home with bad scores on their exams, all I could read was "aim higher, low scores, doesn't try hard" boy I was so mad, and didn't think I would react the way I did, I even felt more like an adult when I grounded them! Now I know how my mom felt when I came home with an "F" in math freshman year of high school. Heaaaaaated!!!!
I was also nominated for the Museke Online Music Awards under the Voter's Choice Category! that caught me by surprise!! Its gonna take place in New York Sept 24th.2011 Cross fingers that we take this one home!!!!!

My Sweden trip never happened! sad face. Buts its okay, its not like I wanted to be at the biggest festival of the year that starts today at exactly 10:00am Swedish time, and sing on stage alongside fergie, coldplay and other great artists in front of 10,000 screaming fans.......sniff sniff 

(sarcasm is one of my specialties). 

But its okay, I have had a lot of freedom, laughs, and surprisingly...some crushes, I mean don't get me wrong, not as bad as last summer's emotional Saga with the half Geisha boy, but this time it was actually bearable.There were choruses, sing alongs, and no spoken feelings. Thats all im gonna say! *wink*

But Overall, I am happy and I'm looking forward to the upcoming months ahead. Mom is gonna be back this Saturday from the USA. I am pretty sure things will change and I will be even more busier now, but I am glad I got this freedom to grow up a bit more, experience the "real" life, and basically live free. Thanks to you for making it fun and the most enjoyable I have had in a loooong time.

been there and pretty much said that.

I want a new tat really bad! something out of the ordinary!!! something that represents me. I love this tattoo of Lights. One of my other favorite artists, she is soo awesome!! Besides Haley Willaims, she is also my wifey. You may salivate over these photos.....

Her Tats are amazing and she doesn't look trashy with them at all!! Me want!!

So I was going through my friend Deanna's facebook photos and landed on this photo of my apartments I used to stay in California, Ashwood Court Apartments!! She took this photo waiting for me to come out for a good night of bowling, Dec, 2009. Ha, she says that it looks like a face on top, like from the Mario Bro. video games. I totally didn't notice that, until i saw this photo. Aww...makes me miss home even more!!! California Dreamin...

Love and Rockets!!!!! : )

ps. Thanks to word of mouth for this post!!!!! much love!

giving all my undivided attention....to god knows who???

I do too.

We were the first ones at Erics place, and driving on the way, there were alot of stops, thinking "should we go now?, what if we are the first ones??!" Eh, "Freak It" Lets go....and this is what happened.....

WE had a great time lastnite over Erics house, he had some of his friends over for dinner, and to chill out!! And it was suuuuuper fun, i met alot of new people and i think the most exciting part about lastnite, was the whole Aaron taking off his shirt so magically in a way it would make u guess, HOW DID HE DO THAT?!!? its kinda hard to explain, but i will try my best to get him on a youtube video and he will demonstrate, oh and also Blake showing us how to lift someone using 2 fingers, don't worry its no hocus pocus, but all real!! Thanks Sarah for your participation!! :) AND who can forget about James?!??! Gosh, the conversations that we were all having with him was so intense and all about science and technology? Bascially rounding it all up, we will either be human computers or resurrect from the dead, or pretty much die with mankind in 2050!!! All i know is that James is pretty intelligent and got all of us wondering. And OMG EW!! Pastor Sempa on youtube, about the whole "POO POO" thang, was not a joke at all. That one needs you to actually get on youtube and watch it! lol. Oh and Dani's tasty ricecrisppy cake thingy was soooo goood!!! I totally need that recipe and it was soo good, that i totally forgot that my toothache was there and immediately after finishing the desert, the toothache came back more painful than ever!!! GAAAAAAHHHHH...

and Gosh i like this guy, LIKE LIKE...but honestly Rachel, WHATS WRONG WITH  YOU!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! I definetly needa to step up my game, if you know who you are, wait....should I be saying this.....?

Have a good weekend!!

Dream

So last nite when i was sleeping. i dreamt. Well, don't we all. It was very weird in a way and this time I only remember bits and parts of it. So the world was like about to get attacked by aliens, and there was like a huge warning about it, and I remember trying to get out of my house and I was kinda too late because i spotted an alien space craft in the sky, just above my house, so i remember getting silver foil, or was it silver paint? I don't remember, and i was putting it all over my body, face, legs, chest, arms, everywhere!!!! So once the alien came inside my house, it didn't really attack me and probably thought I was one of them, and i remember speaking, "errrrrrm errrrrrrrr" alien language. Very Weird. My dream randomly jumped from there, and last thing i could remember was me making out with this guy. or was it an alien? 

I love dreams.

yes people, sometimes we can get off rhythm too, so dont feel bad.

The feeling when you make plans, get excited, and it never happen

 

When that beat drops to your favroite song

I have been in a musical roller coaster these past few days, one day im listening to babyface, another time i am listening to nirvana, the next i am listening to 50 cent, next the all american rejects. I now know that i don't love just one genre of music, but i listen to mostly everything! I was looking at some videos on youtube and saw that Demi Lovato's new video had a lot of hits on it, almost 14 million views, so i was curious and wanted to know if the song was "that good". 

and boy, i usually don't listen to those Disney stars, but this girl did not play around in her new video, Skyscraper! Its soooo deep and i wish it was my own. Definitely a song that describes what I have been going through. You know rising up to the top, while having people trying to bring you down. I think we have all been there.... 

click above to see the video. Such emotions in a song! I need to work on that!
