"TIEN BEAT" the sporadic bulletin detailing the life of Tien
January 2010
Hi everyone!
I hope the new year is treating everyone well. I finally graduated from college, with a degree in Philosophy and a minor in Theatre. I loved USC and I'm glad I went to college, grandiose debt notwithstanding. I just moved to Echo Park, a vibrant locale near downtown Los Angeles. Plans: to get a day job, finish my latest acoustic album (Starboard Sessions) and the debut Dayplayer album. I'm really excited about both. I want to TOUR TOUR TOUR...that's the main overarching goal right now, career-wise.
I'm tempted to say that there are many things I figured out in college, like who I am, what I believe in, what is right, what is REAL...but I don't know if that is really the case. If anything I am more confused about all of those things, but I will claim that I am more at peace with their indeterminacy and impermanence. I just take comfort in the notion that my perspective on these things has grown, and will continue to grow. The more I contemplate the vastness of the universe, the brevity of life, and the uncertainty that envelops all of our actions and experiences, the more it seems I find myself in a place of acceptance, wonder, and gratitude.
Happy birthday to Maggie Rose Fitzgerald, whose presence I am so fortunate to have enjoyed, in the short time we had. Every moment is precious.
Love to all, and I'd love to hear from each and every one of you.
Best wishes,
Tien
