Hey Nick, how have you been? What have you been up to lately? I just graduated and i am starting college in the fall (i hope that doesn't make you feel old (: ...)anyways, I hope your doing well and singing a lot!!! i hope to hear from you! Miss you! Tess
I already bought the fluorescent believers EP from itunes but Konrad let me listen to the new versions, please let me know when you're done because I want to buy them too.
Amazing hanging out with you as well...and it's been cool getting to know you.....{And I learned more and more as the night went on....hee-hee} And as long as you keep making mesmerising music I will be at shows...standing in the front...dancing and singing e EVERY WORD!!!!
P.S. I actually LIKE the beard...I am am not a usual fan of the beard!!!
hey stranger! How are you? Im graduating in a few months and looking at colleges...its kind of stressful but hey...I just figured I'd let you know whats going on in my life now. I bought my own car in August (1997 Mercury Cougar/white) Im pretty proud of that! anyways, life is great! I've decided that i want to major in business and minor in art (painting) hopefully so one day I can run an art gallery in New York. Thats what im shooting for. Its all very exciting! But I shall tell you more another time! I hope your well! Take care Love Tess
I like this new song. My favorite song is the one that you wrote on your Jyde CD. Have you recorded that with instrumental accompaniment? If you don't I think I will. ;)
