My first blog!!! March 31,2009

I’ve just finished training and I’m running to the beach trying to catch the last rays of sun.
Only now I understand why people from all over the world try, at least once in
their life, to visit California.  Besides the obvious-Hollywood stars, beautiful people, Disneyland and Universal studios!  It’s the beauty that drives us to the West Coast.
My Cousin just came out here all the way from Siberia.  He was only 12  the last time I saw him!  Now he is a professional Beach Volleyball player who is trying out for the Russian Federation Olympic team for the London Games in 2012.  I had such a great time
watching him play on Manhattan Beach, Playa Del Rey as well as Santa Monica. So now that I’m laying out here soaking up the sun I reminisce about all the fun we had together here at the beach.
I would also like to remind everyone to not forget to wear sunscreen.  My cousin didn’t listen and got burned as well as all of his teammates.  Besides we all know that we are destroying the ozone layer- so be careful no one needs skin cancer. ☺
The ocean always had a healing power over me.  I love the soothing sound of the waves. They bring me inspiration.  The first song that I ever wrote was on the Beach.  Now that I think about it- that was 10 years ago.  It feels good to have something in my hands, and to say that I have finally stepped on my path to creativity and fans.  I often wonder who I would have become if I stayed in Kazakhstan.  I don’t know but I’m happy that I’m here in Cali! I have become whom I’ve always dreamed of being. A singer a songwriter a performer and a strong young woman. The hardest thing in this life is to believe in you and love yourself all; the rest comes with life’s lessons.  So if you are having a hard time right now and you are lost, remember that nature is the greatest healer of all, and all you
have to do is step away from your troubles step outside of your box.  Grab a towel go to the beach and meditate, or rent out some skis or surf board and go enjoy a great God’s gift to humanity “Mother Nature”.
P.S. Don’t forget to pick up your trash on the way out and please recycle!
