Where my gay's at?

Over the weekend I got to swim in Zurich lake. When I say swim, I mean for a mere 30 seconds. Haha! The water was colder than ice...mountain water. It was such a beautiful day full of sunshine...we had a cook out BBQ and I somehow managed to mess up the kabob veggies :-p, I am so not a cook. I will always take up an opportunity to hang out with Andy, Chris and their friends. Hopefully I'll get to do it again before I leave for home....! I almost forgot the best part of the weekend...this cute little Dog Leo would not stop kissing my face! He kissed it nearly for 10 mins!! When he started to move to my boobs I made him stop....he was getting a little to frisky. He would be perfect for Hollywood. Miss Hollywood and Mister Leonardo Dicaprio. :-D


The tour is still going very well, its a very tight schedule and long hours, but I have so much fun with these kids! It makes me miss my brothers and sister even more though. I haven't seen my family in almost a year because of all the traveling, but next month I'll be taking a looong holiday to go see them. I cannot wait. :-D

This morning a really funny thing happen....I'm always making mistakes with words and for some reason I always choose the worst option. This boy asked me  "Do you like the gays?" I was like "Of  course! They always have the best time and they are great to go shopping with. But sexual orientation doesn't matter at all to me, it's whats inside that counts. " Everyone again was so confused and then they started to laugh really hard....That's when the teacher explained that he meant "gaming." The real question was "Do you like the games?" Hahaha, but I think its completely understandable how I got that confused! I could seriously not stop laughing, and the boy was such a great sport about it. :-)

I'm a little car sick right now because we're high in the mountains, so I'm going to relax a bit and sip this diet coke before  my next gig. Ahhhhh, so refreshing.

I'm sure you all know by now my love of sweets. I seriously have the biggest sweet tooth in the entire world. This huge candy store in Europe called "Lollipop" is amazing. They have soooo many different kinds of candy then we do back home! I love it! When I called my husband to tell him about this amazing candy store he simply said "I bet you got three pounds didn't you, Just like  you do when your home." And he was right...I got 1 kilo = 3 pds! Haha he knows me too well :-) Again...I just dont understand why my boobs photograph so big! Seriously they are NOT that big!! How I dare to dream! Thanks to Oliver who took the pics....hahaha!

Six feet under.

I'm sitting outside of my hotel room watching a beautiful storm overtake Zurich. I really love storms, they bring me peace and the wind feels amazing in this hot summer weather. Every time I'm alone traveling I get to know myself a lot more. You don't realize how much you've grown up until you start reacting to things differently. The petty bullshit we use to deal with just isn't important anymore. The past is left to the past. Of course there are always exceptions where people hold on to whatever grudge they can, because to them that's all they have. Let's make this world a but better and let go of the past. Life is too damn short...we should always look for the positive first. So this is my post to say....MY past is buried. Every lie that was ever told to me, every broken promise, every hurtful word....ALL OF THE BULLSHIT is being buried. This is one funeral I won't mourn.

I want to personally congratulate John Gordon and Manfred/Mette Zähringer from Iceberg Records for winning the Eurovision Song Contest with "Satellite" performed by Lena Meyer-Landrut!! I am so proud and honored to work with you guys.

Eurovision is one of the biggest music contests in Europe. It compares to like an American Idol! Over the years he Eurovision contest has found amazing stars such as Celion Dion and ABBA.  How Eurovision works is each member Country submits a song to be performed live on TV and then casts votes for the other countries' songs to determine the most popular song in the competition. The show has been running since 1956!!! Making it one of the most longest running shows in he world. To read more about the contest go here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurovision_Song_Contest

John Gordon and Jodie Frost wrote and produced the song so this is a really big win for them!! I am so honored and feel so lucky to be working with John, everything we ever write/record together always turns out amazing. One of first songs I've ever written with him was "Absolutely Nothing." Can't wait to work with him again in September! Go to YouTube and listen to "Satellite" performed by Lena Meyer-Landrut. It's a really great song and Lena is so cute! I wish her as well nothing but the best in her career.

Anyways....the entire tour has been going super well. The days are very long and it's a lot of hard work....it's nothing I didn't ask for ;-)! I've gotten some really funny questions too, such as "Do you like sport in bed?" and "Are you somewhat of crazy??" Hahaha! Yes, yes I am somewhat of crazy. Thank you for noticing!
