Today was a good day for me.

At 1 I had my recording session with Dan. I got there early so that I could watch Evan do the end of his recording session with Audrey.

Evan then was nice enough to help me get ready for Dan's session. We got inputs plugged in and got his band set up for recording. It was really nice of Evan to help and I'm glad he did because it kept me from being stressed. :)

The recording session went well. Dan sang an original song. We did a scratch of the whole band and then specific dubs of drums, bass, acoustic, and vocal. We will add electric guitar when we get a chance because his guitarist wasn't able to be there today.

Dan did get frustrated with his vocals and then the next artist, manager, and engineer came in before we were done and kind of were critiquing Dan and I. He nor I liked it. :(

After my session, I went upstairs to see if the work from yesterday had been finished. Warren was there and I updated him on what we did last night and what was semi-finished this morning.

He checked to see if what we had started working on was working out. And then he changed his mind about the right main speakers. He told me if I felt comfortable messing with them up on the scaffolding, that I could try to fix it myself.

I tried, but there was a lot that would have to be done. It was a two person job and I couldn't do it by myself. So I kinda left a mess.

I went to the grocery store and WAS going to go to dinner and get coffee but Whitney texted me.

She told me that Warren's youngest daughter invited some of us girls over to hang and watch a movie.

I thought it would be a good opportunity to get to know her and hang with the girls and get away from CMC.

It was fun! We watched a movie and gabbed. It was very interesting to see Warren in his home.

Haha different perspective on the man...but still the same.

Tomorrow will probably be finishing up the work on the stage and speakers and then a Grammy party at Tom's!

I am so glad that today went better than I was expecting. It gives me the hope that I can get through this semester and do WELL.

I still have to put effects on what I recorded and more, but the process did not stress me out or make me insane: which is great.

"Aren't you proud of me? I wasn't hard on myself!"
