What’s happening

My dad was in the Army, so I get the feeling the need to move every so often. Living in my own house now, when I get that itch I end up rearranging the furniture. I hope you do manage to travel and catch up with people.

2024-04-25 12:50:59 +0000 UTCSounds as though a great deal of things are happening. I can relate to the "oversharing bit" the career I'm (in progress) working towards requires a great deal of travels, and usually won't be tied to one place for long. I still got a loads way before reaching there, yet it'll be worth it once that day comes hopefully you get to do what you'd like. May your upcoming/future projects go well Mate 🐺 🐾

2024-04-23 23:39:18 +0000 UTCQ: I made a date for you, part one-do you have a go to pick up line, that always gets you in the door to talk with a girl you want to be with .....part two-whats the line?

2024-04-22 22:05:52 +0000 UTCI can relate a lot to your thoughts as I had been in the same situation 1 1/2 years ago. To get your mind clear on where you wanna be is important to follow your dreams and find your personal road to happiness. Realizing that I don’t want kids and shaping my life following my dreams was the best decision I ever made. Now I travel for work and it makes me more than happy. And the right man for me will be thinking alike and be there at the right time and moment, no need to rush anything that is not meant to be. Do whatever you love and everything will come together the way it should!

2024-04-21 22:19:02 +0000 UTCJoel, lots of people juggle a traveling career with a loving monogamous relationship (and the 2.5 kids and pets and houseplants and yard maintenance and…). I think it’s way more common than you probably recognize. Hell, I’m living proof that it’s possible because my husband travels a fuck ton for work every year. (“Faithfully” by Journey is my jam!!) Speaking from experience, the secret to making a relationship like that work is maturity, independence, trust, commitment, respect, communication, humor, honesty, understanding, appreciation, compromise, adaptability, but most of all, love and passion for one another. As long as both people continue to have the strong will to keep the relationship alive, then there’s a way to make it work. But it does take work. Also, absence makes the heart grow fonder. I firmly believe that the right partner for you is out there, it’s just a matter of time until you find each other.

2024-04-20 20:42:57 +0000 UTCArgh totally, it all made me wish I was better at taking photos. There was so much to look at. And Cuba’s quite safe for women on their own too. Solo trips are worth it, but yeah, the considerations are different, hey? … And the face healed ok, I just felt like such a weakling 😂

2024-04-20 19:54:55 +0000 UTCSome cultures are so awesome, that even during all kinds of issues the people are still warm and welcoming 🙂 I haven't been that close to equator, so I don't think I have ever experienced that kind of super strong sun. But ouch with the blisters 😬 I hope it has healed already so that it's not painful at least 🙂 I burn quite easily, so that sounds pretty awful, that u still get burned like that despite sun cream and hat. I don't know if u are into taking photos, but I can imagine that Cuba is a great place for photography with those old cars and beaches and such..

2024-04-20 18:39:11 +0000 UTCMy whole mission was to shut my brain off, so that part was successful anyway. It’s a weird place right now. They’re really impacted by food shortages etc because of the global situation. The people I met were super nice despite everything. I think my sun problem was because I went so fast from a cold climate to extreme heat. Has this ever happened to you? I’m don’t think I’ve ever been so close to the equator. Maybe TMI but I got blisters on the side of my face (uuuugh) even wearing sun cream and a hat 🎩
emy
2024-04-20 17:00:50 +0000 UTCCuba and beautiful beaches does sound like a great all-inclusive destination. But yeah if it's too hot all the time, then it's not fun when u don't have the energy to do anything 😓
JustSomeJK
2024-04-20 10:23:07 +0000 UTCI went to Cuba. It was definitely relaxing. I think the boredom did help with the relaxation. The beaches are insanely beautiful but the sun was so powerful, I was wrecked 🥵. I was like Quasimodo, scurrying between the shadows
emy
2024-04-20 04:07:37 +0000 UTCSorry to hear that your vacation was boring. I hope it was relaxing at least 🙂 Yeah I want to see historical sights and museums etc. and experience things while visiting places 🙂 But not so that every minute is scheduled... All-inclusive is probably handy if wanting recharge batteries when being totally exhausted though. Can I ask where did u go on your vacation?
JustSomeJK
2024-04-19 23:35:21 +0000 UTCIt is awesome that you are planning on traveling and visiting friends. Only you can decide what makes you happy and inspires you in your music and video content. Thanks for the update!! Hope you have a great weekend😊

2024-04-19 22:36:07 +0000 UTCBus tour sounds like a nice idea. And if everyone’s a stranger you won’t have to struggle for alone time, it’s easier to choose when you feel like being social. I recently went on an all-inclusive vacation alone and I gotta be honest, it was a lil boring hehe. It’s nice to have stuff to do
emy
2024-04-19 22:25:29 +0000 UTCI get this too. I have a simple apartment in a comfy neighbourhood that’s close to nature. I can pick up and leave pretty often, I just leave my houseplants with someone. For what it’s worth, I’m happier than I used to be. Removing the chaos that’s under my control to remove, not accumulating tons of material stuff. Sometimes I think I’ll need more in the future, but I really like it for now.

2024-04-19 22:20:01 +0000 UTCHey Joel! Be free its the best thing ever.😍 I ended my last relationship a few years ago because of this. My ex wanted to “put me on the box” and I wanted to see the world. And I say it was the best decision I made. Traveling and seeing places is even better. It makes you feel alive. This year I took my first trip alone. And it was AMAZING! And about dating and children, this happens at the right time and of course if you want it. Enjoy the most of life as possible because it goes by so quickly. We are still young, don't stop doing the things you want to do. I'm happy for you.🤍

2024-04-19 14:18:02 +0000 UTCGood point on that sing along thing...😂 Although I'm still probably not going to sing along, 'cos I noticed from the video clips I took in Robbie Williams' concert, that it doesn't sound so hot on a video when the people around u are singing along and it sounds a "little" bit pitchy 😂 But one shouldn't care about that, so sing your heart out 🙂 And yeah definitely check those bus tours... Some of them goes to pretty cool sightseeing destinations and one that I looked at visited some distillery where one could try making gin themselves, could be interesting 😁 And yeah old people are awesome. And when traveling with them u can be sure that there is toilet breaks 😂
JustSomeJK
2024-04-19 12:59:27 +0000 UTCI never thought about a bus tour as an option to travel and visit places, but it sounds interesting, as in maybe I’ll look into them. Also older people are pretty cool, they have great stories, and sometimes they know how to get the best service out of anyone. I could find someone to come with me to the concert if my friend can’t make it, but I also could have a lot of fun on my own I think, I could sing along as much as I want without caring if strangers judge my lack of talent 😆

2024-04-19 12:47:26 +0000 UTCDidn’t read all the replies, so sorry if i repeat.. Many music artists manage relationships while traveling. You find someone that understands. Either they stay home, travel with, travel sometimes, however it comes about that works with the two of you. And that’s something only you two have to work on together… but it’s something that can and will when it’s with the right person. And as far as the AI stuff… it’s definitely so thrown in our faces (not saying from you) that there’s some burn out… but you’re right. It isn’t going anywhere. I do think it’s a fascinating tool that can help creatives through idea slumps… so maybe you can still incorporate it like you do with pointing out auto tone and other ways music has been enhanced

2024-04-19 12:27:26 +0000 UTCOk, I'm here to throw a bunch of cliches. First, I want to say what I keep repeating to myself. Don't spend your energy on solving problems that don't exist yet. I'm pretty sure when the time comes you'll figure out what to do. As we all know there are no boundaries for love. And if there's no love, then screw that girlfriend with those kids!(sorry, that's too inappropriate joke) Then, I'm super excited to hear the song getting ready, great news! Now I'm not sure if I should check it out asap or wait till it comes out. Also, AI is fine, people are scarier. And of course I hope this new page of your life will be filled with happiness, creativity and absence of leaks. Stay safe, sleep well and, idk, memento mori! And have a warm rest of the week!

2024-04-19 12:23:30 +0000 UTCJoel, feeling as tired as you. The "vibe", for creativity is so important. Consolidating, regrouping what a mountain you have set before you to climb. Thank you, I've been trying to do the same. I feel I have way too much crap. George Carlin did a skit on "stuff", if you can try to listen as you sort. I wouldn't suggest to drink anything at the same time, though....could be messy. Travel, I've done some and there's so much more to see. I just don't really like the idea going alone. New Orleans, and a few US places before going back to Europe. Seeing the world whilst being in Navy different as civilian....so to speak. Life is precious, to be enjoyed -so happy that is becoming a higher priority. It can also help with the bubbling creativity that is inside you, Joel. I am sertain the best is yet to come from you, I'm excited imagining. Having the family, yes Joel please don't give up. Dreams are meant to be dreamed then lived. You, my love, with your talent where meant to not just live them but put them to music. Lighten your heart, and dare to keep dreaming. Oh, and yes AI is cool .....but it is creepy (inanimate to life, oooh), tingles the goosebumps. Humans will always be important and needed..... especially ones as special as you -you make this heart sing.✌️✌️✌️❤️❤️❤️😂😂😂😍😘🥰

2024-04-19 12:16:18 +0000 UTCYeah I have always wanted to visit Ireland and the Titanic museum etc. And my over 10 years older than me colleague has been on a bus tour there and said that she could go again 'cos it was so nice. She also told that the other passengers were mostly older people or farmers 😂 To me the main thing choosing such tour is to feel more safe and not having to eat every meal alone and also one doesn't have to worry so much about getting around in public transportation etc. At least I could ask older people tips about good life or talk about food prices and animals with the farmers 😁 But yeah we'll see... I just don't want another vacation like I had last year. And yeah definitely going to the Coldplay concert, I just wished it could have been with the best friend. So I'm thinking the same way as you of the Ed Sheeran concert, no matter what it's going to be a great experience 😊 And those two artists are the kind that it's easy to find someone else to go there with you or to sell the other ticket too.
JustSomeJK
2024-04-19 12:14:15 +0000 UTCYou said before that you feel better when you are not working alone, so I think the office space and working with Rod is great news. I think all of us, at around your age get this itch to travel and see things, and though I may be wrong about it, your conditions seem ideal for that, as you don't have to be in a certain place to do your work, it seems you can pretty easily set up to film in other places if you don't want to interrupt videos when you are traveling. Regarding your worries about another person not being able to put up with your need to move every few years, I hope you find someone that makes you happy enough that the trade off doesn't seem like you are losing something. I am a huge believer in compromise in a relationship.

2024-04-19 11:11:04 +0000 UTCYou sound like a nomad. You can make that work

2024-04-19 10:14:34 +0000 UTCHey a bus tour in Ireland sounds amazing, so if that's the worst option you get stuck with I think you'll be fine. I got priced out of the Coldplay concert tickets where I live, so I won't be seeing them this summer either, it's a bit of a bummer. I bought tickets for me and a friend to Ed Sheeran knowing full well that she may not be available on that date (vacation with kid and husband may overlap), but even if I end up going alone I think I will be happy with the experience.

2024-04-19 08:09:27 +0000 UTCYou're so calm despite many changes happening in your life. Thank you very much for sharing your private thoughts with us and I appreciate that you feel comfortable telling us. I'm also sharing good news too.. My cousin brother came by to visit with his family ever since he has immigrated to Australia. He used to be in the arts industry (drama & theatre) but has since become a restaurateur. His mentee/long-time pal has invited him in a 3-part arts programme and it's been like prolly 25 years since he's been actively involved in any arts-related activities. I've only seen him acted in TV so this weekend is definitely a rare chance for me to see him in theatrical action. I'm so excited and happy for him~~💜

2024-04-19 08:04:49 +0000 UTCThanks for the nice casual update 🙂 So excited to hear that u are planning on doing more creative stuff and music 🎶🥰 5 Stars out of 5 is a great song, so I'm definitely looking forward to hearing the finished version of it!🙂 I hope u get to travel to all those places, live life and gather experiences/memories. U are lucky to have friends around the world that u can visit and hang out with. Maybe u can do some little updates from ur trips, so that we can live off of ur experiences 😁 My summer plans went down the drain couple of weeks ago when I found out that not a lot of friends are having summer vacation at the same time, or that they are having trips abroad with their kids and husbands and not able to make another one etc. I also planned on surprising my best friend with the Coldplay concert ticket, but now found out that her sister gets married this summer so my bf isn't available that concert weekend. So now I'm wondering if I should book a bus tour in Ireland or something so that there would be at least some people around while traveling 😅 Have been quite overwhelmed by thinking about what to do with my life overall, but yeah who cares. First world problems etc 🤪 Maybe I will just listen to ur demo Decide and try to become ok with the possible future of becoming lonely cranky old lady, who listens to human based music, walks her dog and curses on young people listening to their AI idols from the chip installed in their brain or something 😂 I hope u find a really nice new apartment and ur own person 🙂 Anyways, good night and have a lovely weekend 😊💙

2024-04-19 06:29:38 +0000 UTCYou live once Joel, travel and see the world if you have the means to do so and everything else will come together in time when you’re at peace with it 😊 Honestly super stoked about 5 Stars out of 5 potentially getting released, it’s been my favourite unreleased song for a hot minute! 🥳

2024-04-19 06:22:08 +0000 UTCWhen you find the one you love, you'll make it work whether you live next door to each other or a thousand miles away. Finding a kindred spirit that will travel and explore and enrich your life will happen if you let it, it might not happen if you hide in your apartment though 🤗. I'm glad you're looking at the separating work from home by sharing an office - I know they always say do something you love so it doesn't feel like work, but when it encroaches on home it's hard to step away. Keep being your awesome self Joel Boel 🤗😘

2024-04-19 05:48:37 +0000 UTCThat's so cool you're making plans for more freedom. I bet you'll feel more inspired when you don't feel so tied down. Wish I traveled more but such is life lol. I've just been spring cleaning at my house. Feels good downsizing and just getting everything spruced up again.

2024-04-19 05:30:32 +0000 UTCI absolutely feel you with a "being in one place too long". I'm on this situation right now, like I suffer from burnout in job I believed is gonna be a great opportunity to grow, but now it's only a place to earn money and I hate it. But I have to stay because my home studio is growing bigger and I need permanent job. And if you want to travel more, I would like to invite you to see Poland 😀 we say here "I'm throwing everything away and go to Bieszczady" and that kinda works 😆it would be a long trip for you great place to have a rest enjoying nature and get inspired

2024-04-19 05:14:17 +0000 UTCThanks for the update! Sounds like a lot of positive changes are happening! And that’s so good that you are planning to take much deserved time off to travel. Also looking forward to hearing the finished version of 5 Stars Out of 5! 🙂
Miriam
2024-04-19 05:14:01 +0000 UTCExcited to hear 5 stars out of 5 get released! It's a fantastic song. It feels amazing to move out of a place with bad memories. Good luck with the moves. I have this weird combination of never wanting to leave my house but also see everything in the world.

2024-04-19 05:08:46 +0000 UTCLove your casual updates, thanks for sharing your thoughts. Be free, make your plans come alive🎶🎶
Elli
2024-04-19 05:08:40 +0000 UTCOmg, never ever settle down with someone who is not on the same page as you when it comes to travel vs staying in one place. It is definitely possible to have a family and still see the world, but it takes partnership and a team mate that wants the same thing. Do not marry a homebody if you are more of a rolling stone, find a stone that rolls with you😉

2024-04-19 04:06:47 +0000 UTCI’ve also gotten a strong desire to travel more recently. I live close to an airport and anytime I drive by it I fight the urge to turn in and just hop on a plane 😂 But then I check my bank account and….sigh. Trying to make some plans for a quick get away for Memorial Day weekend next month :)
