<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">These have a been a very weird and difficult few weeks. But I am writing to you purely as a singer living in these times of probably what has been quite mind messing. So many questions, not many answers and keeping things simple is probably the safest things to do. </span><div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There isn't many things I can say about the world and how everyone else is dealing with this pandemic, but what I can do is tell you (and also write this as a reminder to myself) of what life has been like for me during this pandemic! </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">When we were told that we were going into lock down, I remember I had just got home from recording. It was the 16th of March and the family was sitting down to watch the announcement from the Prime Minister. Once he delivered the news of a 2 week lockdown beginning on the 18th, it took a while for me to process what that meant. My brother who is a lot more attuned to things than I am went right into it and broke it down for me, point by point, on what life was probably going to look like for the next few weeks. Me being the stubborn girl that I am believed it was a "let's wait and see" situation. He was right, of course, in all the precautions we were going to be making. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The first week in quarantine got me active! Got me online a lot talking about the happenings around town and how we need to keep our optimism up and hearts open to whatever life was going to throw at us. Inside though, I was just trying not to think about anything other than getting through the days without panicking about what the future was going to bring. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I think that's still my motto. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I spent my days with family, I was lucky to have been around them during the lock down. I watched TV with my mother, did exercises with my brother and spent the evenings reading up on music giants that I never had the time to venture and learn about. I believe that was quite a highlight. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The worries about what the Covid-19 has brought to my life still remains in my peripheral thoughts, whispering to me to leave behind the life I have known before. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Before this when my days were just about going going going and listening and learning songs for shows and booking events and saving money and paying bills and recording albums, I did not have to worry about whether I was wasting my time because it felt more like I did not have any time left to waste anyway. But now that there is a lot of time and still much to do... my mind sometimes wanders to the "what if"s. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">All I can hope for is for the safety of everyone. Keeping myself and the people around me safe is my concern.. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I hope to also get back to work soon. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">There is a tricky situation in there and I am still trying to work out the details and taking my time to come to terms to how my lie is about to change quite a bit professionally and personally. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Taking deep breaths and trying really hard to be optimistic. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">stay safe guys, stay clean. </span></div>
<div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Our second jam session kicked off rough, all thanks to yours truly not knowing how to CONFIRM A STUDIO! Ok self anger, aside, the amazing guys at <span style="color: yellow;"><b>Drum Asia</b></span> managed to get us a space on the stage area. Yes, we had to cut down the jam session time from 3 hours to 2, but I was working with the best musicians so, 2 hours were plenty!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: yellow;">Ee Jeng</span></b> got there early, so did I. Was I going to take advantage of the extra minutes I had with him to write something new! Hell yeah! <span style="color: cyan;">#everyopportunity</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">yeah I am doing hashtags now. boom.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I had been working on a new song called <span style="color: #f4cccc;"><b>Nice</b></span>, got some help with the chords from a friend all the way in Australia (thank you, internet) and within 15 minutes,<span style="color: yellow;"><b> Ee Jeng</b></span> and I had the song off and running and as <span style="color: yellow;"><b>Omar</b></span> and <b><span style="color: yellow;">Dave</span></b> came in and set up, the song had a life of its own and within an hour we had most of everything we needed! </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I know this is not news to musicians out there about what it takes to pull a song out of thin air, but I have been struggling. Especially since I have been writing on my own for years, only recently able to write things on a piano. It's my fauly; to let my pride lead me to where I am today. I could have always asked for help! Now that I have absolutely put that on the shelf, I am throwing "please" and "thank you"s out like candy! Or.. advice.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Anyway, 2 hours flew by and we had 1 new songs and re did the 3 from last week. Me, the person who thought she had plenty originals in the bag, realised that she has lots of originals yes... but all of them incomplete. I need to sit down and finish these songs! They all have really good ideas and hooks but they dont have a second verse and all the options out there doesn't help! Bridge? No Bridge? hook? How about some weird section that no one expects! Options options...</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Oh well, once we were done, we packed up and headed for dinner together. I like this part of the evening, the part where I hear some of my friend ideas for the songs, ideas on what is going to happen with it next, what it could be called while we also catch up with other parts of our lives. I am lucky that I work with my friends for a living.</span><br />

<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="color: yellow; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: yellow; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: x-large;"><b>Yesterday</b></span><span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"> I got some musicians into the studio to work. There was no reason for them to have allocated time for me, to come into studio and to help me out with something devastatingly important to me, yet they did. </span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">I got to the studio <b>(Drum Asia)</b> a little earlier than everyone else, sat down at the piano and tried banging to my not-so-great chords in preparation for them to come in. They slowly made their way to the studio, setting up the instruments and just catching up. We as musicians , dont always get to just hang out with each other outside of work, and have even less opportunity to meet and hang out in studio to just play for fun. </span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Then, I took a deep breath and told them what the first song would sound like. I played a sample and some examples of songs with a beat I liked and <b>Omar</b> (drums) picked it up in a second. I gave <b>Dave</b> (bass) and <b>Dean</b> (guitar) the chords I was interested in and .. off they went, with or without me. The song had taken shape and … it was a life on its own. It was like we were creating a whole new person in the room (lets’ not get too descriptive). </span></div>

<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">A few weeks ago I met my producer, <b>Rozhan</b>, and he told me that this whole process was like creating a child, and when the album was done, it would feel like I have given birth! Hahahaha what a perfect way to describe it. </span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Like a parent, I can’t wait to see the songs grow. </span></div>
<div style="font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 16px;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">We managed to go through 3 songs that evening. And the best part was that the guys were excited to hear the next song and then the next and tried different things with the song and asked me if I liked this, or if I liked that. Being decisive was important too, because I can hear the song in my head and so it made it easier to decide what I want and not want. But these guys were giving me so many good ideas, I wanted it all! But… some songs should not be suffocated with excessive detail. Guess I will have to update you to how that feels when it comes to it. </span></div>

<li><span style="font-size: large;">How the f*ck did Freddie Mercury do that? Find the confidence to just be himself? Was it acceptable to try new things even when it was not a norm? How do I do something like that?</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">How did he find such a band that went with what he designed? Was he a natural born leader? Did he just get really lucky to find people who thought like him?</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">If Freddie, who was studying to become a designer, could play the piano and write such amazing music, why am I not doing the same? What is stopping me and what can I do to break through that barricade?</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Does it matter that it is 2019 and the likes of Ed Sheeran and Ariana Grande is probably what the youth think is genius music? Shouldn't I conform? And if I don't conform, then where is my stage? Did Freddie have the same concerns?</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">This movie could not have come out at any other time but now. Perfect timing. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Being yourself is a good thing if the people around accept it. And you should walk away (but never forget) the people who didn't want you to be who you are. </span></li>

Welcome to the new year!<br />
<br />
Yup, I totally slacked the whole 2018 but let's all be Frank and say... 2018 could not have ended sooner.<br />
<br />
This blog has always been about music and my musical life, but why not let you in a little bit. When I first started blogging, I was 19 and loved talking about the fun I was having with my everyday stories (like threading, which I still do by the way). That was, of course, when I was still in school and had young things to talk about.<br />
<br />
Now I am 31, singing for 14 years, still loving it, no doubt about that. I have this feeling of separation anxiety when away from the stage and mic and spotlight for too long. Is 5 days too long?<br />
<br />
Anyway, what I really want to talk about is health. OK FINE sometimes that is not the most entertaining subject.... but when you forget health, health forgets you (deep).<br />
<br />
Just take a second, think about all the things you've seen on TV or read in adverts or heard from the previous generation of "adults". Now throw that out of your head. It is not like that. It is worse. It is harder. It is more painful and it lasts longer than you would imagine.<br />
<br />
And that's if it's happening to you.<br />
<br />
Being a carer is a whole other post.<br />
<br />
Everyone Should Choose Health<br />
<br />

Didn't get much sleep last night. Kept getting woken up by bears and noise.... dreams and such... So was up at 8am.<br />
<br />
But anyway, gym at 12:30pm. My mum had to exercise for 20 minutes, so I used that time and played the Amajor scale for 20 minutes effortlessly. YAY! Doesnt seem like much, but it was quite an achievement.<br />
<br />
Thought of dividing the day between scales and writing music. But I end up just scaling the whole day.... dammit! Well, I hope to have more originals by December. I will only perform songs I am proud of....<br />
<br />
Will keep on it!<br />
<br />
Need to write!<br />
<br />
And now... need to sleep...... till gym. </div>

<br />
I believe the song I will be hearing in my head for the<span style="color: yellow;"> REST OF MY LIFE</span> is the G major scale.<br />
<br />
I don't know what it is about my fingers and trying to get it right, even though it's almost exactly the same as some other scales, but I trip up! Get into my head too much! Never though I could confuse myself by playing scales.<br />
<br />
The end results will be amazing.. it has to be!<br />
<br />
I have days when I feel so damn lame for having a hard time with my scales, especially since I have been trying this for years! My closest friends are musicians and sometimes I get embarrassed to tell them about my struggles on the piano even though I know they would never judge me and will be nothing but supportive and helpful.<br />
<br />
But I have to keep on going. I have to <span style="color: red; font-size: large;">stop</span> thinking that I am getting older and maybe I should just give up. That's some crazy Bull-Shi+3 talk. It's never too late Dasha. Just stop wasting time! Surround yourself with people who are on the level you want to be! Talk to them and be inspired. Know your place ...and then level up!<br />
<br />
Tomorrow... A major.<br />

<br />
And this bottom, I have visited many times.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><b>Scales. </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
That is the first thing all piano teachers and pianist say I should start with. This has of course been a topic of debate for a while, and yes I have picked up and started on the theory lessons (again for the 100th time) but I have always been excited for the moment I get to put my fingers on those black and white keys.<br />
<br />
And so, from the bottom to the top. One scale at a time.<br />
<br />
I have been learning the C Major Scale for 10 years. So I know that.<br />
<br />
Yesterday was all about the <b>D Major</b> and <b>E major</b> scale.<br />
<br />
D Major done. My only technique this time was doing it over and over, up and down, both hands, 10 times in a row perfectly, no breaks, with metronome. Not too shabby.<br />
<br />
E major on the other hand (haha) was not so fun. Think I will keep this for another week when my fingers are a bit more warmed up.<br />
<br />
F Major was today, and you have been a bit of a bitch.... but I got you in the end. The fingering <span style="color: #eeeeee;"><i>(haha I always laugh at this, because I am immature sometimes) </i></span>got me at first, then I got you back.<br />
<br />
Today while watching a tutorial (those 10 minutes a day kind) I found myself mindlessly playing the F major scale. I realise muscle memory is the goal when it comes to practice. The more you get it right, the better you become at it.<br />
<br />
Also this is the video I watched today:<br />
<br />
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ufQ3ujNgBF4<br />
<br />
Cuz he is also cute. And like most people, I need to be told what to do at first, and this guy tells me exactly what to do down to what to do with my phone. I like him.<br />
<br />
Tomorrow... G major!<br />
<br />

<br />
It has been months since I have written and like I said above... yeah, what else?<br />
<br />
To be honest, I got lazy and distracted with my daily life that I forgot about the one thing that has always made me happy when I was active, and always made me sad when I left it forgotten.<br />
<br />
<i><span style="color: #ead1dc;">Music. My own. My love. My dream. </span></i><br />
<br />
I was going to start a new blog about how I really really really want to write my own stuff on the piano. How I hate that I am not equipt enough to do that! But I have this, and this is about my music and me and our relationship. And so, I have decided to really get into it. And I don't mean the quick "here is 10 minutes a-day practice tutorial" <i><span style="color: yellow;">(which I do admit I do watch just for ideas)</span></i>, but really really get into it. Like getting lost in practice and hating myself when I get things wrong and loving myself when I get things right and just DOING IT like I have said I will for years.<br />
<br />
Why is it different this time? <span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;">Because I am telling you about it.</span> And I hope you can be supportive and remind me to practice, remind me that the end game is worth the effort. Remind me that it is not too late. And with all your help, I will get there.<br />
<br />
I am so lucky to already have people in my life willing and ready to help. Arms wide open, phones on and homes ready for me whenever I need that extra guidance.<br />
<br />
I can not wait to tell you all about it.<br />

<span style="color: #e06666; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="background-color: white;"><br /></span></span>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #e06666;">Oh wait, I didn't even tell you I was going anywhere! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #e06666;">I have been in London for the past 6 weeks and it was not what I expected. I did do the things I intended to do which hopefully is going to be very exciting for everyone. I did lots of other things too which I had planed to do. I watched Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak and John Mayer. I thought I'd leave inspired, but I left angry at myself for not working harder to be like them. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #e06666;">From watching my idols, I realised how much time and effort and work and consistency they put in. Their concerns are just the same as mine when it comes to writing music. "Just put it out there," John said. He just told me the thing I already knew. People are not going to like everything I put out. Some may, some may not. Guess that's the risk of being a musician. The part I have not been brave to get to, no matter how many Januaries I tell myself I will get an album out within the next 12 months. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #e06666;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #e06666;">When will this ever get on the road? Put the pressure on me! </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">

<i><span style="color: #eeeeee;">"excuse me, could you bring me down?" </span></i></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">I have often heard that I have the weirdest on-stage preference when it comes to my monitors. I always prefer them softer than some singers and I never thought about it until today. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">I started singing in small bars in Penang, here and there with minimum experience and minimum knowledge of what I would need when I performed. All I knew was that I needed a mic, speakers and maybe a music stand for my file (yes, my lyrics were in a file, that you flip!) and hope that the wind is kind and the lighting doesn't reflect off the plastic protecting my lyrics. There were performances completely void of a monitor and I didn't know any better. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><span style="font-size: x-small;">There was once a whole contract, that had monitors, but a mixer that was not properly working. The monitors were there for show and were never turned on</span><span style="font-size: xx-small;"> (no matter how sexy I spoke)</span><span style="font-size: x-small;"> and with this, I was trained to perform without monitors. So now when I am on stage and the monitors are turned on and working, it surprises me just a little. As if there was a wall in front of me and I singing right at it and my voice is being thrown right back to my face! </span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">I much prefer hearing the far away sound of my voice coming from the house speaker. Ever heard your voice played back to you and think "dang!!! That's what I sound like? I shouldn't talk anymore....", I often ask myself why anyone would like my voice. Then I shut up and get on with it because I love singing and I just hope people can tell that I do when I do. Do be do be do be doooooo...</span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">But in all honestly, what this has taught me is how to work through tougher situations. How to perform with a faulty monitor, how to carry on with a show if a monitor cuts out. Learning how to trust my voice while performing and listening to what the audience can actually hear. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="color: #eeeeee;">Challenge yourself. Try the difficult way and see what happens. It's through the mistakes and hardship that we learn the best. </span></div>

It use to be a platform to speak your mind and share ideas. Now it's an open writing ring and everyone wants to take a swing.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is why I love blogs. Yes, I know I promised myself this blog would be professional only but before I was a full time singer, I spent a lot of my time writing blogs and poetry. Those days are long ago and far away but I'd like to bring that back.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Isnt it sad though how argumentative the world has become. And no one thinks before they speak or type or reply and oh so many severed ties and burnt bridges. This has also made people sensitive beyond measure. What is going on? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Writing songs have also become a challenge. When writing "cleverly", it made me deliberate weather I was saying anything wrong or my message may be muddled or confused and people may take offence. The song is about how everybody lies. And if you have to lie, lie cleverly. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
"Leave your man" is easier. If he's a bad guy. And you know he's a bad guy. Or maybe not a bad guy, but a naughty one. Then leave him. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But anyway the point of this post is to say I am going to open my mind and heart on this platform. I will of course think a thousand times before posting anything so if you are reading this, I meant you to. </div>
<div>

Exclusivity, it's easy for most but tough for some. I'm talking about everything under the sun! Exclusively eating vegetables. Eating non living things exclusively. Eating meat exclusively. Drinking wine exclusively. Warm water exclusively. Etc etc<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Putting the live stories aside, I'm talking about being exclusive to musical genres. Is there such a thing? I don't think so. Exclusivity to venues. Well, I am loyal to some more than others to be honest. </div>

Come catch me and Robin Banerjee as we duo it along, Just the two of us!<br />
<br />
January 7th @ Suzy Wong<br />
New year, new songs! Well, come new songs at least. It feels like 2016 has leaked into 2017 and I don't know where one year ended and the other began. Signs of growing up where I guess I have begun to take one day at a time. Anyway that's not the point! Suzy Wong!<br />
<br />
January 20th @ Suzy Wong<br />
So yeah, this is place is pretty awesome (and pretty hard to get into, but it helps to know the band) and I will be performing with John Thomas and his trio! What's going to happen? I have no idea, but I do know it's going to be fun!<br />
<br />
This is all, since Chinese New Year comes early this year, everyone will be partying home-town style. See you February!Dasha Logan http://www.blogger.com/profile/03158811701557169653noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6386325023342226927.post-86177005359957648182016-07-15T03:32:00.000+08:002016-07-15T03:32:05.664+08:00So bad at thisWhat has happened to me? I am telling you, this website thing is so distracting that I dont even update that!<br />
<br />
Anyway rubbish aside, I have been caught up with stuff (life stuff) so here I am trying to make up for it while I have the lap top on my actual lap. Most of the time I am lazy with the lap top across the room and a bluetooth keyboard and mouse by my side. Couch potato to a whole new level indeed.<br />
<br />
SO! Here I am with the dates that I have! I know it's kinda half done, but it's the information I have right now and I will update along the way. Thank you for visiting the blog for updates! You're the best and I am so glad you keep an eye on me ;)<br />

<span style="color: #ead1dc;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #ead1dc;">So this is something I have not done in a while but I have been trying to keep up in letting people know when I have been performing, I am so sorry to my followers and friends who have tries to keep up and I have been an absolute useless online user in updating you. </span><br />
<span style="color: #ead1dc;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #ead1dc;">BUT I really want to change that. =) From what I see, there are still people out there checking out my blog so why not keep it going even though I have a web site? I have always loved blogs ( I wonder if anyone can find the old ones I have posted up... those would be embarassing) </span><br />
<span style="color: #ead1dc;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #ead1dc;">SO HERE IS FEBRUARY. I am going to keep it short and sweet. </span><br />
<span style="color: #ead1dc;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #ead1dc;">When: 5th</span><br />
<span style="color: #ead1dc;">Where: Rils</span><br />

<span style="color: #ead1dc;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #ead1dc;">I have also been hearing a lot of concerned comments about my well being and health, saying that I am looking tired and worn out. I am working on this. I don't know why I have been feeling tired lately, but I am changing my diet, fixing my exercise schedule and making time for healthy activities. </span><br />
<span style="color: #ead1dc;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #ead1dc;">Always a time for change. </span><br />

<span style="background-color: black; color: #eeeeee;">So yes, i know i have skipped the whole month of February. As some of you know, my mother has been recently admitted into ICU in Penang so I have mostly been on the island to be with her. She is improving a little more every day and, well, it has been quite a roller-coaster which I can't quite get into just yet. </span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">
<span style="background-color: black; color: #eeeeee;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">

Happy new year, folks! <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This year I have decided to know my resolutions, instead of
make new ones. Work hard, get there (wherever “there” is)<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
2014 came and left with many lessons, many happy (and sad) memories
and a new way of seeing things. I am lucky. Sometimes, when things are getting
difficult, just remember that the rewards after will just taste sweeter. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
And so, I am more than excited to announce that the year
kicks off with a gig!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">

17<sup>th</sup><br />
Mezze<br />
Jalan kasah</span></b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A lot is going to be happening real soon, planet! Look out
for my brand new single coming out sometime soon too, “Leave your man”! I love love love
this song and I can not wait for everyone to hear it and watch the video
when it is ready for public eyes. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What can I say Malaysia, you have got me this far, help me
go further? <o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: white; font-size: large;">I guess I want to thank people. And I want to say how I feel.
And I want to point out that this feels like the beginning of something that is
going to be amazing. And it’s actually kicking off! 10 years of working hard
and grinding my teeth and trying to get myself heard, and I have finally
reached level 1 of this insanely multi floored building to success in this
industry. I may have started in the basement, but here I am, finally a floor
up. One up, as the gamers say. =) <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: white; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: white; font-size: large;">I have always had people around me who knew my destiny as
well as I did. Like it was not even a question, I always knew I wanted to sing
and knew that I would stop at nothing. Although, I admit I have had my doubts,
days when I just wanted to throw in the towel and live a life that was
comfortable and safe and reassuring. Here I am living it dangerously,
undetermined and reckless. And finally, I have reached a point that can
actually assure me that… all the hard work is not left unnoticed. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: white; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: white; font-size: large;">Thank you to the supporters who have and continue to support
me, my music, and my lineage. And even to the people who have nothing nice to
say about me, I want to thank you. Because if it was not for the hate you feel
for me, I would never feel all the love that comes from the people who do. I
only hope you find something today that would make you so happy, you wouldn’t find
the need to hate. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<span style="font-size: large;">The “–bers” are here at last, marking the quick rush of
weeks before the end of the year. How time flies.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">I have set goals for myself this year and I am proud to say
I have reached 70% of those goals, with the biggest one of all, getting a song out
into the world. Not just any song, an original song. Played
internationally.
Jump-around-like-a-little-girl happy!!!!!!!!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: yellow;">Unfortunately, there are no public shows this month. Lots of
private shows which is good, busy is good! =) </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">However, I will be popping up around Kuala Lumpur. Guess you’ll
have to follow me on Facebook for that. =) <o:p></o:p></span>https://www.facebook.com/pages/Dasha-Logan/60022910933?ref=hl</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">Been keeping myself busy with cooking and reading and
writing. Also going to challenge myself with a word a day with the help of
Dictionary.com so if you see me on the
street, come up to me and ask me what the word of the day is. Whoa, really
setting a challenge for myself. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">Will definitely arrange some live shows for the remaining of
the year. There’s nothing I love more than inviting people to shows. I finally
got Spotify! I feel like I have not lived properly all this while until I got
the app. Yikes. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">So I will see you lovely people around town, have a great
October, and if I were to give you any advice, it would be to get Christmas
Gifts now. =D Beat the rush! </span><o:p></o:p></div>
