Feels like Friday! Which is super weird.. cause it's only Thursday. OH well.
I'm bored! I'm not talking to bella or alex right now to do another random interview, cause she is actually on the phone with her husband! (My older brother Damen) but.. that gives me time to have this blog post to be strictly about.. other stuff :)
I have a bunch of homework I have to do this long weekend! Which really.. sucks! But, once I get it done quickly I can pretty much just chill out! It's going to be fun. Ugh, I kind of have a lot on my mind right now that's keeping me from focusing.. so it's a litle stressful. :P
But right now.. I wanna bring up a point that I just thought of. So bella, (I just asked Damen to ask her for this lovely info) has sprained her left ankle twice and twisted it once. She has sprained her right ankle 3 times. And once in a while since she never got either of them looked at, she gets pain in one of them for up to a few days and I have sprained my ankle twice.. I went to the hospital both times and unless I ever sprain it again, I wont feel anymore pain. I just thought I would take this moment to say.. sucks to be you! >:D
Just kidding, Love you.
But anyway.. September is almost over. Congrats gents, we've made it a month of this school year! Cheers! Well.. I'm gonna go do something fun.. not to say that blogging isn't fun.. but something else ;)
Love,
Kaytelynne.

Just wanna take the time to say thanks guys! I never knew how much people liked reading what I had so say about stuff! And about Records, and my life.. and just reading my blog because I just looked and noticed that I have hundreds of blog views and stuff from you guys! It means a lot :) So here is a internet hug *hug* <3
So, I'm kinda bored so I'm chatting via telephone with awesome bella! Let's do a record interview oh my gosh! I'm excited. K, wow she's laughing at me! Haha, let's do this!
Question 1: What would you say is in the future for this "possible future record" you have mentioned in the liner for TFOM & DNW?
A: Well, I haven't been thinking a lot about that, and I don't wanna spill too much about it either. But I can defnitely say I am excited more then ever for what's in the future for me and my music! If there was a chance of another record.. I'd say watch out music industry, I've learned a lot.
Question 2: What was the hardest thing about making DO NOT WITHER?
A: My gosh! Well, definitely knowing what it was about.. and you know, where to start with it all, because I can see with both records as proud as I was of every single thing on it, the songs got stronger as I got through the record. And having time for it! And the last hardest thing, was I struggle with this a lot is.. using the words you, him, I, me, etc. in the lyrics! It really bothered me, because it was me noticing that I was using those words as fillers in spaces I didn't know what to say.. so I struggled fixing that but it definitely made a difference in the end.
Question 3: What has been playing a lot lately in terms of what you've been listening to lately?
A: Ah, I love it when people ask me that! Lots of The Honorary Title, Two Door Cinema Club, We Were Promised Jetpacks, Daughtry and Coldplay are only a few of them right now!
Question 4: Are you tired?
A: Yeah, a little bit. But this was fun!
Question 5: Thank You for taking the time to answer these out of the blue interview questions and not talking super fast so I had time to quickly type out the answers! :)
A: You are very welcome. This has been out of the blue interview time with your own, Bella Merryweather. Yes, that's me. Join us next time when we interview out good friend.. Alex! (First name I thought of!)
Thank you, and goodnight!

Sunday is a Funday!!
It's Sunday and I just arrived at home with my neighbors from church approximately 20 minutes ago. It was a good service! I enjoyed it.
And I enjoyed Youth Group and all of it's awesome-sauceness, basically.
If your having a bad day.. inbox me on facebook and I will surely reply and help you through your hard time.. cause that is pretty much the mood I'm in right now! And I really wanna hangout with James again.. but he's busy today so oh well I guess. I have homework to do.. and I really don't wanna do it. But at the same time, I have to do well in terms of grades this year. Because if I want a post-secondary education or a career or a life at all, high school and my grades matter unfortunately.. it's just I enjoy being a teen and doing un-high school like things like just hanging out and blogging on Blogger cause I love it and it's free! (Celebration time inserted here)
Yay I just got an inbox from my bffff!! Her name might be Bella, she's kinda cool! But she does live in a different city that isn't as cool as Mississauga livin' ;) But anyway, right now I am hanging out with my next door neighbor twins named Jordan and Hayden! They be jokesters!! Like I can't believe how much of rebels and funny dudes they are! Like Jordan is just sexy!!
well.. too bad Jordan wrote the part from they be jokesters until the end of that paragraph which the whole thing is a lie.. but they are pretty cool guys. I'll be seeing you!

Liner--
''When I started the first record, I had no idea what would come out of it.. or how it would turn out and how fast I could do it. I knew I would get impatient with myself, because in the beginning of it.. it was a definite challenge to just jump out into my own world of creativty and make a record. Because you know that's exactly what it was, a leap for whatever I wanted the record to be. A little before I started it, I had a dream title for the record, which was acually 'The Fall Of Man' I just really loved the intensity and story behind that title and I hoped to incorporate that title throughout the whole record. And that's kind of what I did, except for the fact that it wasn't just man that fell.. but the purpose was to show how I fell too, and there was a lot of personal story and truth in it that was going to show through the first rec, and as it completed.. around the end.. I wrote a song called The Fall of Man, and it made the whole story of the all around record, into one story. One song. And as soon as I knew it, it was done. It was a major accomplishment too! I had it done so quickly! I mean, this was my very first mature music that I had ever written. I had no lesson, ever in my life musically and here I was, you know hoping for the best outcome for a noob record (Haha). And I thought, you know.. as noob as I might be, I am so proud of this record and all that it has become and just all that I had learned in the months that it took to finish.
So at the end, I released the track list and title and everything and I did want liner notes.. but you know, I'm a noob.. what noob needs liner notes? And I also thought .. you know, the music should say it all.
So about a week and a half after I finished TFOM.. i wrote the song Forget. It was a lot different then the stuff that I had put into TFOM, because it was a happy, feel-good song. So I decided, there is going to be a second record. As proud as I was of TFOM, I wanted to take my time in this record and just make a second record that all in all, topped the first one and just blew it away and still love the first record. So I started in the middle of June, and the entire summer, the only time I had to work on it was on the weekends, and sometimes in the afternoons during the week when I had inspiration to write. One day in the end of August, I pulled all the ideas I had together (Because in the beginning all I had was many different little ideas, not full songs) and I realized that the record was two thirds done! So I worked the last part of August so hard and was determined to finish it for September. On a weekend, I finished the last song I had trouble with which was The Dark I See, and all I needed was a title. I thought, wow I did'nt have a set idea of what this record was gonna be, because it's so many different things with one message I couldn't name. I didn't want to pull a random album title, So I went through the meanings of each song on the record and I came up with the powerful statement song, DO NOT WITHER. It's in caps.. because it's important and so you see that importance. So, the meaning of it all was.. Do Not wither.. whatever happens.
So that's the liner for The Fall of Man, and DO NOT WITHER.
Thank You. And finally, as far as a 3rd record goes. We will see if there is a chance.

Bad news?
Blogger/Google has just informed me I could lose all access to my blog and information if I don't add a phone number to my account cause apparently it makes it super secure? Too bad I don't have a phone number to add to this thing.. cause if I did.. I would do such things. So if in the future I'm hacked.. I should have had a phone, huh? oh well.
But um, it's kinda pouring like crazy in Mississauga! How could it? Ah, I don't care. Lol, but I've missed blogging! I haven't been able to blog because my parents have decided to start acting like parents and haven't let us use it very much because homework has to be done.. and even if we don't have homework.. we still have chores and what not, and they say there is much better things to do then just sit infront of a computer screen so I have been looking out in thr work outside the web!! And I'm kinda liking what I've discovered.. it's an enjoyable world that our God has created for us :)
Anyway, school is well.. and I like it too! it's fun. So yeah, since it's raining I'm not anywhere else and I finished my homework! So I decided to blog and facebook and tweet :)
PS - I love James Nathanson. He told me to write that.. cause I'm on the phone with him and I'm barely listening cause I can't really blog and talk at this same time! So yeah, I love the guy.. a lot. ;)
Talk soon, friends!
Love,
Kaytelynne.
