I've just created another Blog XD Don't pannich tho...
I decided I'm taking back my 'Ms Williams' side and get back to the 'Words' that used to be a special part in my personal music site: ...And This Is My Music (which I'll be changing the layout as soon as possible), I used to write stuff about music acts and albums... well, when I decided to write on myspace's blog I did it to make an English version of that, later I stopped writting my 'Words' in the website.
I feel like getting that side of me back. Ms Williams has a past XD shame I think I deleted the complete Neptunized bit, but maybe there's still some piece in Google's archives... well, in fact never disappeard, since I still write on myspace's Marta's (MCG) blog. It's been a while tho since my last post, but yet, I usually post there about music and stuff I like, rather than explaining my personal affairs LOL! I did it sometimes, but I prefer this Vox to write about what's going on with my life.
Well, that's all I had to say ;p Let me announce it into my mates at my yahoo!'s music group, we hardly post there, but still is our home.
Cos I'm out of control and I think I'm ready to blow (take it on the explode sense, non sexual).' This was a verse of song I made once over 'Diddy' s beats (by The Neptunes), and right now is how it feels. NANA DAY SPAIN is getting bigger than we though it would, and consequently, NANA DAY BARCELONA is getting out of control -in a good meaning- . I need to keep my feet on the ground and keep thinking as fast as I can, and my mates in the job need to do it aswell. This week is going to be CRAZY.
First, I'm gonna be busy working in my two jobs, and then I shall dedicate my spare-time (at nights) working on translating our Project for NANA DAY into English, and making the Budget part and the Activities stuff bigger and professionally, because this is our priority now to get a big space to celebrate it. We had a great feedback from two of our principal investors, but they are gonna give us too much support than we cannot ask for money to get a bigger space to celebrate the event. So we're gonna need to work hard as hell to solve that.
This weekend we went to the Comic Fair and we had loads of meetings concerning to that. It was very intensive, and I spent too much money on cd's XD I bought THE END by NANA starring Mika Nakashima, OLIVIA'INSPI REIRA (TRAPNEST) album and Love for Nana Only One Tribute. Then I bought Black Cherry by Koda Kumi. :P It was great having the chance to buy those cd's. I'm in charge of the NANA DAY'S music part, and we had contacted with two girls from a club called Saxen Carnival that wanted to work on that music part, so I have great expectations from this collaboration.
BTW nothing new about my love life, I can only say that every day that goes it sucks more and more. I don't know how long I'm gonna stand this situation, I don't feel down now, but I feel decieved and I'm sick and tired of it. It irritates me too much.
I repeat it once more: www.nanaday.net
Aw! I fell in love with her music and her acting after watching Attack No.1 and Ace wo Nerae! Then I watched Azumi, and started to dig into her albums, not only the themes for the previous series, and since then I've been becoming more and more a fan of hers. My aim is to have all her original albums someday, not only the mp3 you can download from trackers and other sites...
I've still got to finish Shimokita Sundays, but I will do it soon because her new drama Hotelier will start real soon! I've got a live tour to watch and all her videos in a nice DVD ;D I guess I'll spend some time next week to watch them on my living room's screen... I'm gonna share with you a song that really wakes me up!!!!
I like how she mixes styles plus her voice always relaxes me so much, which I really need lately!
And she's really funny when she has to play that role, but when she has to be dramatic, she does it perfectly!!! She's trully special, Ne?
Well, didn't have anything to do, and I was listening to her, so I though I would dedicate her a new post. After all the NANA DAY typing, I need to chill XD
This week's Holy Week in Spain. In Spain and in any catholic country, I guess... but it's not like a holiday to me. It's ironic, is the first holy week in years that I'm not gonna work, but I don't feel it like a holiday cos I've been unemployed four months now. At the beginning was fun, cos I had loads of stuff to catch up with, and had a few works to do, but after finnishing them, I've started to get bored by not having a job that obligates me to go out everyday.
I still got plenty of stuff to do, but is not the same when you don't get paid and when half of this stuff requires the computer to be made. :-/
Sugababes tour is already on, and I haven't sent my letters yet, :S I'm really lazy to sit down and write them, although I've got the stuff for a month now.
Yesterday I went to see my new nephew, this time is from a friend I studied drama with. We went with two more of my mates to meet the new child, he's so cute! He fell completly asleep at the moment I held him XD, cute.
When I got like this, I usually get really down. I did last two weeks, but it was because another thing, not because my job. That worries me, but I'm kinda active lately, and getting loads and loads of ideas, so that makes me work harder to look for a job. Now my goal is to ge to a status when I have to depend on no-one else to do my thing. I mean that I want to work hard, get my ideas on, and become someone that can actually work as a freelance or even have a little company. I'm gonna start-up a new project with a good friend of mine, I know that usually's no good to mix up friendship with bussiness, but I do know I can make bussiness with her because we sort of know each other perfectly, and also know how the other works, so no chance to get backstabbing happening.
I'm listening to 'new' music lately: new Joss Stone's album 'Introducing Joss Stone', Mario Vazquez, TOKIO's new single 'Hikari no Michi / Run Free' , m-flo, Lisa, EXILE, the albums for NANA's anime from Anna Tsuchiyah and OLIVIA... I'm really so into NANA and all its stuff. Is amazing to have such quantity of music just because the anime and the movies have different songs for NANA's and Reira's characters.
I'm also getting more into my DS, I'm officially addicted to Animal Crossing, and I've been downloading some games, the Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan! (I've got the US version, but this one's funnier), Electroplankton (really kawaii!), and one that's called something like 'Kira, Kira'... Pink or whatever... let me check... 'Pinky Street, Kira Kira Music Hour' I shall find some guides to this one cos is in Japanese. I already gave up on a few japanese games LOL! But this one is about girls in Shibuyah, really cool. And when I'm bothered, I've get my Japanese language guide, to check out the hiragana and katakana signs, LOL!
BTW, soon I'll got more news on another friend of mine. I'm just holding it a bit more.
I'm trying to get familiar to Japanese katakana and hiragana, now I've got more time...
Well, I knew this from a couple of months ago, but it started just last week. I'm now working on another projects. Well, I would like to stop doing this, I mean work in projects but knowing I will def get paid for my job, but right now, I can't do nothing but prooving I'm capable of doing what people asks me to do, in order to get them give me more work later, and make it an actual job :P
Well it's something really exiting, I even suggested loads of stuff for this project. It's not me who's managing it tho, which is really great, so I'm just doing assistance works for it, but it's risky cos I shall give good advice and provide the right names so the project becomes a success. Despite I like the job, I hate the fact that right now, I got nothing sure to hold on. I mean that nothing is gonna assure me my future, I ain't got a job yet, so no money coming in, and I'm not gotta get benefits for all this little projects I'm involved, although I still hold the hope it will provide me a better future.
I'm still waiting for that package... but I'm getting started into the Project Manager thing, and I must admit I'm really exited about it. The only thing I loath, is the fact I shall work on home, and my parents don't understand what I'm doing, specially cos I only get involved in stuff that doesn't bring me money :-/ But hey! If everything works fine, in a very short future, I could start being paid for this Project manager thing :P
Dreams are cheap. Ne?
Indeed, I'm The Messenger... I've been the whole weekend being a messenger, awaiting for my package to transfer. I'm still waiting. I've got a sample tho. But I'm waiting, and when you wait knowing the one that's making the package is working her ass out, it's really uncomfortable. Also because I know the one that's gonna recieve it, depends a lot on the quality of this package. I hate being like this, although I like what I'm doing :S
On the other hand. I'm Project Manager. It's not too different from being a Messenger, but this time I even got more responsabilities. What doesn't changes is the harrassing and chasing people part. Asking till they get tired of hearing your requests. Trying to deal, keep it cool... well, I really hope I succeed, I'm taking this to the next stage. I'm leaving the amateur status, and while I'm trying to become a pro, I really get lost in it. Sometimes it gets to despair. Specially cos no-one else understands my position. They don't get why I'm waiting like this for something to be sent. They don't get why I waste my efforts into managing any projects, when I won't get any refunds. One day we're gonna rule the world, I hope so, me and my mates, my mates and me.
Yesterday I took a little break and went to a meeting within' Silver Clover fans. They're a group from the Otaku world, that like to cover Japanese & Korean Pop songs. I really had a nice time. Here there go two pics from yesterday's pic-nic:
These people are us, while covering us from the rain that suddenly interrupted our lunch.
That's me, I seriously need a hair cut :S
LOL! I'm really bored, and instead of doing what I should (keep on subbing Attack No1 into Spannish...) I feel more like writting, about me. I'm that Egocentric. LMAO! No, seriously, I just find out how fun is this Vox thing, I think I'll keep posting in here more often, cos I've been focusing only in my myspace profile:
and my myspace music spoiler profile
but don't take this last one too seriously LOL
I think I'm in a lot of comunities for friends that dragged me into them, like Friendster or Yahoo! 360º, this last one is nice cos I got too of my best online mates, Paula and Ngan, but I don't visit it that much often (I think I'll pay it a visit and message Ngan)...
http://360.yahoo.com/marta_dontspeak
Well there's nothing too much up there, but there are some pics of me a year ago.
BTW I'm in a music comunity named Splice
Is not that I wanna be a singer, I just love to sing, but anyway, maybe I'll stop soon, cos got troubles with my voice, and I'm visiting a doctor next month.
Well let's keep talking about me and my ego...
I'm 26 years old, and I'll be 27 next August, yup 1980's generation, I think that was a nice one. We were the first ones to have certain stuff, and also the last ones to see other certain stuff...
I think it's because of that, I keep missing the 1980's sometimes, but I was never that much into the 1990's, even when people speak about the Godlen R&B days of the 1990's, well, I though those were really good, but I'm not ashamed of the present, I do like what's being made now, how crunk has become less annoying and more pleasent while being mixed with R&B and Hip-Hop, and I still like old 1990's, but I don't turn my back to nowadays acts, such as Cherish, or Chris Brown, LeToya or Black Buddafly... I love UK's music too, and now I'm getting that much into Japanese R&B and some of their pop and rock acts, I really thing the present music has nothing wrong, but it's brilliant.
One of the acts that has caught me up so much is Amuro Namie, I love her songs, I bought 'Queen of Hip-Pop', one of my fav tracks is 'No'
What I really like is to write stuff over beats. Got two nice friends who are really good making beats. They're both at my top friends list in Okada Rei's myspace (link above).
I'm really getting into Amuro Namie, BoA and Koda Kumi. Love the way they got to sing, and their songs, but from Japan, I'm also into Arashi, V6 & TOKIO, and Ueto Aya, Okui Masami, Otsuka Ai & Do As Infinity.
My favourite music subject is usually girl bands, and the band that has marked me more after TLC and All Saints, has been Sugababes.
I was already grown when they came out, that's why I say they go after TLC and The Saints, cos I was growing still when those two bands crossed into my path. But I see the Babes like my little sisters LOL. I've met them all, except for Siobhan, and got the oportunity to chat with Mutya once, well, she's going on solo now. But I also love her replacement in the band, Amelle, she's really nice, and love her style too.
Sugababes style all over these years has always influenced me, and watching them grow and change has been a pleasure. As a fan, they have brought me nice memories, and good friends, and as a person, their music has been a good influence on me.
I'm keeping an eye on Amelle's sister new band, Samiyah is in a trio called 'Little Miss Jackson',
http://www.myspace.com/littlemissjakson
I like their music too.
Within' Sugababes, I love Blaque, as much as I love the Babes. They say they're gonna come back for real this year, but who knows... after two unreleased albums... and those solo projects from Shamari and Brandi never coming out... I wish they do it someday tho...
Cherish & Black Buddafly are the new bands I'm adding to my favourites. They would be at the same level as 3LW are in my priorities list. I love 3LW I'm a huge fan of Adrienne Bailon, I met her last year, she's so sweet!
http://www.myspace.com/3littlewomen
In a special level, and because I got so much involved with some of their fans, I have the 411 girls. The ex-411 ones. Cos I still don't know whether Tanya, Tisha and Suzie have another girl or not in the re-formed band.
www.foreverbegins.net is the site we setted up to all those nice memories the girls gave to us.
With me is nearly all about female vocals, even with solo singers and MC's, Brandy, Monica, Sheryl Crow, Keyshia Cole, Terri Walker, Beverly Knight, Keisha White, Estelle, Missy Elliot, Eve...
when it comes to males... I keep straight to Jay-Z, Lemar & Japanese boybands LOL!
Well, I like nearly all So Solid crew male acts, Sef, Oxide & Neutrino, Face, Mega... and my fav and one of my fav producers: JD aka Dready, known now as only Dready.
Oh! I forgot to mention Jay Sean and Raghav! Is not that I mistake them, I know they are two separated acts, just that the names came now suddenly into my head. LOL!
Well, before this post takes longer... I think I'll stop in here for today. I just named a few of my fav music acts. Maybe next time I'll talk about my fav Mangas, Comic characters or my fav series...
