Into the Sun Tour: Day 21, Rivers and Roads til I Reach Nashville

You. Guys. Today’s journey was a beast. I woke up, still exhausted from yesterday’s drive, to the sound of rain pattering against my window. I was very confused considering when I drove into Little Rock yesterday, it was 92 degrees. Seeing the rain, I knew it would make my journey that much harder but I …

Into the Sun Tour: Day ‪20, Little Rock, Arkansas‬

Today was a tougher trek than normal. Leaving my family behind is always emotionally draining which makes the drive that much longer and harder…. About halfway through the drive, the contact in my right eye dried out and folded up into itself, getting stuck under the lid of my eye. I had to pull over …

Into the Sun Tour: Days 17-19

These next couple days I want to keep to myself. The time I get to spend with my family is precious. It’s been a huge joy to be around them. In fact, since I’ve been here, I haven’t felt the pain in my back at all. It hurts me to leave them; it hurts me …

Into the Sun Tour: Day 16, Open Bell Coffee Shop

Today, I took it easy as I normally do before a show. I watched movies with my cousin and then got ready to sing tonight. For the first time on this trip, I am not going to a show alone. It felt really great to have my close family come out and support me. Especially …

Into the Sun Tour: Day 15, Day at an Asian Bathouse

I once again find my aching body ruler of my domain. I do some research and find King Spa and Waterpark in downtown Dallas. My sweet cousin wakes up earlier than me and cooks up some breakfast before I head out on my adventure. It was a little rough. The map kept telling me I …

Into the Sun Tour: Day 14, Family Reunion in Dallas.

You guys, the most anticipated part of my trip is finally here. I am visiting my cousins in Texas!!!! I won’t deny feeling a bit hungover from the night before. It made getting up early and driving into the sun so much harder than it should have been. I will admit, I was surprised at …

Into the Sun Tour: Day 13, One Night in JJ’s Alley

I woke up exhausted again. Unfortunately with chronic fatigue, it takes days for me to recover from physical exertion. So, I listened to my body, took it slow, and made my way to the Whole Foods shopping center to shop some more and eat. The perks of playing in big cities is that there’s always …

Into the Sun Tour: Day 12, The Lighthouse on Lake Hefner

After a series of unsettling dreams, I finally awoke and began my day. I wasn’t quite sure exactly what to do. I still felt too tired to do anything physical and didn’t have a real need to shop. I decided to just search for food somewhere with a view and found myself ending up at …

Into the Sun Tour: Day 11, The OK but no C.

Well, today started decent enough. Check-out wasn’t until 12pm, so I slept in and took my time packing up and getting ready. I found an Airbnb, so I made my way over to it. After unpacking all my stuff, I went out into the world to go shop for my baby cousin’s birthday present. (I …

Into the Sun Tour: Day 10, Rainfall in OKC

You guys, last night I had a horrible nightmare. My friend was driving me around town and we found ourselves stuck in a lake. I panicked and got us both out of the car. Somehow, we were on the road again and my friend drove into another lake on purpose. I was so frustrated and …
