Hey everybody - I just got home, and I’m getting ready to unpack my bags!
I wanted to update you guys about what I have been doing lately. The last two weeks have been so much fun for me. It all started off in the beautiful Bahamas.
I was invited by People Magazine to perform at their annual party - and they sure know how to throw a party! I got to stay at the most beautiful hotel I have ever stayed at in my whole life - it’s called the Atlantis. It looks like a theme park, and they have aquariums all over the place. They even have a slide that goes through one of the aquariums so you can see sharks swimming as you go down. Isn’t that crazy? I only stayed there for two days, but I made sure that I did everything that there was to do. I tried all the water slides, swam in the ocean, in the pool… and the best part of the whole trip was that I got to swim with dolphins!!!! :-) That’s something I have always wanted to do since they are my favorite animals!!! And it was amazing!
First, we got this weird underwater scooter (I’m not even sure if you call it that). But all you had to do is hold on to it and follow the dolphins. Then, we got to kiss and hug the dolphins - they were so cute! I got to swim and play with them for about an hour, but I had so much fun that I didn’t want it to be over LOL. One day I hope to come back to the Bahamas and do it again.
Of course, I was there to perform, which was just as much fun. I performed two songs: "As" by Stevie Wonder, and one of my own new songs called “Memories Turn To Dust”. The people from the magazine were all so nice. I had a really good time!
I have a lot more to tell you guys about this trip – I will continue in my next blog.
But for now, I wanted to ask you something and share with me your answers: Is there something that you have always wanted to do? What is it?

“Dear Esmee, I have been checking your videos on youtube, and your voice is enchanting. I would like to ask you to consider singing two songs from Andrea Bocelli: 1) Con Te Partiro / Time to say Goodbye. This song will sparkle with your voice and your tone level abilities. I like it better in italian. 2) Vivo Per Lei / I live for Her By the way, I am writing to you from Panama (Central America). This is to show you that your voice is circling the world. Keep it up, and continue being yourself. Be careful with the music industry. Actually, you don't need. The world will follow your voice without greedy intermediaries. Un abrazo, Guillermo.”
“hi Esmee, I hope your doing fine. Well there are so many things i would like to do....... It's always been my dream to become a singer but i know i don't have enough talent so that's one thing i will never do..... Well i would love to go bungee jumping or go to Jamaica hihihi ”

“Hi Esmee! I'm glad that you can influence people through your talent. That is such a blessing to be able to do that; and you do it so well! One of my dreams is for you to sing with my husband. He is an artist as well and admires your talent. He is a pop/rock artist that is currently singing in a different genre, but it would be great if you two could record a song together. You are a beautiful person, and hopefully that dream will come true one day. Thank you for inspiring my own singing as well. Please e-mail me with your response.”

“Hey Esmee, I can not stop listening to your song "Outta Here"!!! I love it! I want to be just like you when I grow up and I look up to you. Something I've always wanted to do is go on a tour and sing. It's been my dream since I was four years old. When will you be coming to Toronto to perform? I would like to try to get tickets. You are amazing! All the best!! Celina : )”
“Heya, I only just registered but I gotta say, I think what you're doing is awesome and you totally deserve it :). The first single sounds really good and in reading your blog I came across the question you asked about what I've always wanted to do so I thought I'd answer it ;). One thing is quite similar to what you're doing really - I've been singing for a long time, main idols being Richard Marx and Keith Urban (no offence ;)), and there's nothing like being on stage, but I don't get to do it often and never really did anything to get my stuff out there. Working on it though ;), hopefully soon something will be up on my hyves or myspace, but we'll see. Another part of me also wants to be a helicopter pilot (maybe navy, have an information day coming up may 27th) and see more of the world, cuz there are so many beautiful things to see. If all goes well I'll receive my BA degree in English this July and then I'll have to start working on a career. Hopefully it'll be one of the two mentioned above :). Well, hope I've answered the question for ya - good luck and have loads of fun! Will check out the album soon. Matthieu”
