My roommate is a WIZARD

Ok...can we talk about my roommate Catherine??

Now I know we aren't technically roommates anymore, but come on...we lived together for basically six years....she'll always be my roommate :)

ANYWAY, this girl is ridiculous...in a good way!!! She is just one of the most brilliant musicians I have ever met, on top of being a loyal friend and a beautiful woman.

She and I both struggle I think with being vulnerable...meaning we just don't like to do it. Who does??!! But I think we've both in our own ways been trying to open up more to different possibilities and directions in life...I know that's really vague...but I'm still working on being vulnerable :)

She has been able to really open up and expose herself through her music which is just so amazing to me. I only sing what's written for me and I've found that I am able to lightly tap into my experiences and emotions and I can portray that in what I do...but it's still through someone else's words or melodies. I never really put it all out there....ever. She has opened up her mind and even let people see into her heart through her art and I admire and respect that so much.

So at risk of just babbling on forever and ever about this girl, because I really can...ask anyone....I'm the best PR rep she has :)....I'll just stop right now and post a link to her blog. Some of her posts are really insightful to not just her, but I think a lot of people that read them...because you feel like she's writing things that you were feeling but didn't know how to think or say....AND you HAVE to listen to her music!!!!! The variety is endless, but I really love her latest full track she posted. It's called "trapeze"...


Listen and weep....I did!!!


I love you, Cat!!! I'll talk to you SO soon!!!
