you belong where...

You belong among the wildflowers
You belong in a boat out at sea
Sail away, kill off the hours
You belong somewhere you feel free

Run away, find you a lover
Go away somewhere all bright and new
I have seen no other
Who compares with you

look mom!

A couple weeks ago, my bestie Morgan Mills and I had the opportunity to go to South By Southwest along with a SXSW package including roundtrip airfare for two, a three-night hotel stay in downtown Austin, and two SXSW badges! You are now asking yourself, 

"How in the hell did they get ALL that?! Not Fair"

Well...thanks to Broadcast Music, Inc., we were treated like queens for 4 days in Austin Texas. Morgan is a singer/songwriter with BMI and entered their "What's Your Inspiration" photo contest, and we won out of thousands! We had so much fun, a special thanks to Candi Shand from BMI, who was our personal assistant/publicist/girl while we where there!

Yesterday BMI wrote a huge article on Morgan here, and was kind enough to throw me a bone too ha. Take a look!

The photo I took of Morgan that won the contest. Shot over Malibu Canyon in random field ha.

'Cause I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
She said, "What?" I told her that I didn't know
She's so cool, gonna sneak in through her window
Everything's better when she's around
Can't wait until her parents go out of town
I fell in love with the girl at the rock show
