I've got so many things to look forward to. My debut album, Now & Then, is currently the third-highest selling CD in Astrovision-Podium. (Thank you to the demo girl over there who plays my CD all the time!) My first single, You're the Inspiration, has made it to the top ten lists on the radio and TV. And my formal album launching hasn't even taken place yet. (BE THERE! August 22 at Aruba Metrowalk, 8 PM.) I realize I'm no where near No. 1 and a lot of people a) don't know me, b) haven't heard of my song, and/or c) don't care about any of the above...but a girl can dream! And that's what I'll do till I make 'em come true! (Oh goodness I did not intend to rhyme...or sound corny.)
With that, let me say congratulations again to the newest MYX VJs: Sanya, Mica, Igi, and Drei...ROCK the Philippines (and play my videos)! To the other finalists: Atom, Nico, Jet, Max, Sandra, and Odessa...What they've been saying to us is so true. We're young and we have so much more ahead of us. So don't throw your hands up yet (unless you're dancing to a command in a song) because we gotta be ready for what they throw at us next. And to the people who dream of auditioning for next year's MYX VJ Search, I say GO FOR IT!!!
P.S. Thank you to Igi for unknowingly letting me post the pictures from your camera onto my blogsite. I'll post more pics from my own cam next time! :) And hey...you were obviously a great partner! The best of luck to ya!
Tune in to my radio show, VINTAGE SOUL, every Wednesday at 8:15 PM on Wave 89.1. This week I'll be singing tunes from Maria Muldaur, The Stylistics, and Anita Baker. For those of you who only know artists from the year 2000 onwards, let me help take you back a little farther. :) Enjoy the music!

MYX doesnt know what they're missing..... So your cd is selling well thats awesome. There are soooo many doors that open when some close. This whole past month for me the same things been happening. Lots of decision making that might ultimately change my entire future. Hopefully both you and I continue to make the right choices. Keep up the awesome work and I hope to see you sooner than later.
PS: You think you know who I am.......I think not. Post to ya soon.
i can't agree with you more when you say 'the best is yet to come.' your journey to a lifetime of opportunities has just begun and you can't be bothered by little bumps along the way. just stay focused and be stronger, wiser, better as you enjoy the ride.
your cd is awesome. i enjoyed all the songs and am so happy that it's making real good. good luck on the formal launch and all the best as always.
love you much,
nette
MYX got myx-ed out! They passed on the new upcoming artist of the year! ohwell...you don't know that this mught be a blessing in disguise...now you have more time to focus in promoting your very very awesome and wonderful CD! and thanks to your CD I found this blog :D
Good luck to you and thanks for the great music and voice that I haven't heard for a long time...
"I have been swept away..." quote from my review of your cd in my blog :P
-TL
"S.A." - what makes you think i don't? you'd be great at spelling bees, but when it comes to typing, you hardly ever punctuate. i mean, you don't like using apostrophes (based on a few emails and your two comments here). and that's what gave you away. :)
t. nette - i'm so glad you liked the album. thank you for always commenting on my blog! atleast i know that people are actually reading it hehehe...i miss you all over there. MUCH LOVE!
TL - thanks for not buying a pirated copy! hahaha! let me know what your blog URL is so i can check it out too! :)
You can find it @ http://ti-blog-ger.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html

i'm excited about the cd launch! hope there are really press people who would write all over the media and not just a few who just go because they had to....uhmmm...that's the mom talking. anyway, keep up the good work. btw, the billboard is really awesome! did i mention that already? many times i passed by there already (corner of edsa and connecticut for those who don't know where it is) and it still makes my heart skip a beat...who could be more in love???
Don't get me wrong, but maybe it's a good thing that you didn't make it in the final four. The VJ gig is great, but pursuing your career as an artist is even better...I think. =)
Book some concert tours, network with other artists and try to reach out new audience in bars and the internet.
BTW, I googled your name and your blog came up. I'll be dropping by metrowalk tomorrow to support. =)
All the best Dianne!
