I was now in the Studio, working on the song 'Liberian Girl'. The lyrics is now complete, and we only have to put it on tape now and do some arrangements.
Quincy and the rest were here, and I just walked into the cabin. I put the headphones on and soon the sound started playing... The south African Jazz singer Letta Mbuli also worked with us on this Song, giving the entire song a fresh combination.
"Nakupenda pia Nakutaka pia Mpenzi we'" she sung into the microphone, as I waited for my part.
"Liberian girl You came and you changed my world A love so brand new Liberian girl You came and you changed me girl A feeling so true Liberian girl You know that you came And you changed my world Just like in the movies With two lovers in a scene And she says, "Do you love me?" And he says so endlessly "I love you, Liberian girl"" I sung into the microphone.
"mh-mh, babe Ahh (ah, ah, ah, ah) Mh-mh, babe, alright Liberian girl More precious than any pearl Your love so complete Liberian girl You kiss me then, ooh, the world You do this to me"
Once we recorded the entire song, it was time to record the background vocals. We worked in the studio the entire day, until I was satisfied with the result.
Quincy and the rest seemed to love it, and so did I.
We also worked on the Song that I've written last year, 'Hot Fever' but after discussing a few things and changing the lyrics a little, I came to the conclusion that the title 'The Way You Make Me Feel' would fit better with the Song.
I also recorded that one, over and over again, doing some arrangements until I was to a hundred percent satisfied with the result.
"Hee hee Ooh Go on, girl Ow Hee Hey, pretty baby with the high heels on You give me fever like I've never ever known You're just a product of loveliness I like the groove of your walk, your talk, your dress I feel your fever from miles around I'll pick you up in my car and we'll paint the town Just kiss me baby and tell me twice That you're the one for me The way you make me feel (The way you make me feel) You really turn me on (You really turn me on) You knock me off of my feet (You knock me off of my feet) My lonely days are gone (My lonely days are gone)"

After a long day in the Studio, I walked back home, took a shower, had some dinner and then walked straight to the home studio to work on some more Songs.
I want to put a good rock Song into this New Album, since the last rock Song I've written was 'Beat It' for the Thriller Album.
Today I had tons and tons of ideas, which is good for work.
I spent hours and hours in the studio, trying to write down some lyrics.

I had another shooting today, and my boss said that it would be a good idea to dye my hair darker, so that's what we have been doing for most of the time. Once my hair was all ready, the next step was makeup and outfit before we could start with the shooting.
I am currently not in Los Angeles, since I had to fly out to Hawaii for this photoshoot. It's beautiful here, Kenzie would have gone mad crazy if she would've been here.
Once everything was ready, I walked to the photographer and he started giving me instructions before I could start posing. He chanted excitedly for how good I looked and what I good job I was delivering ...

"You're doing an amazing job, dear! Keep going!" the photographer chanted, and that's what I did. I kept switching positions and trying different poses, while the flashes went on and off.
When the shooting was over, I changed back into my regular clothes and got escorted back to the Hotel. Outside of the building tons of paparazzi's and fans were waiting for me, I gently smiled and waved at them while I got escorted inside.
Arrived in my room I went and took a cold shower, before putting on some comfortable clothes and letting myself fall on the bed. God I'm exhausted...
I have another shooting tomorrow, then I can fly back home. I can't wait to sleep in my own bed again.
Suddenly, the Hotel phone went off. I groaned and picked up.
"You're speaking with Jade López." I said, trying to hide my irritation. "Hello to you too, bestie." Kenzie teased, "Hi Kenz..." I said and released a sigh, "Sounds like someone had a bad day. How was your shooting in Hawaii?" she asked, "Stressful but good. You'll see in a couple of days when the photos come out." I replied, "Is everything alright?" she asked concerned, "Yea... just busy. A lot of things are going on lately and I simply feel exhausted." I whined and covered my eyes with my arm, "Because of Paul or because of work?" she asked, "Both. Duh." I replied, "Have you come to a decision yet? I mean... this marriage is literally tearing you apart... for how long can you keep going like this?" she said, "I know, you're right... I honestly don't think that I can do it for any longer. I'll have a talk with him as soon as I come back home." I replied.
We then chatted about her shooting and upcoming Fashion Show, about how her relationship with Randy is going, about Michael... a little bit about everything, until we hung up and I immediately drifted in a peaceful slumber.
Too many things are messing with my head right now, to the point where I even refuse to eat properly.
I tried following my mother's tip... searching my heart... but still... nothing. The only thing I know, is that I no longer want Paul by my side. My life is a real mess right now.
