VIVIAN

Good morniiiiing! WOW thank you for your kind words :’) I promise you there is absolutely NO reason to feel intimidated by me. I love everyone, I love getting to know people and hearing their stories. Please message me off anonymous, or on Facebook if we’re pals, or any other social media. I would LOVE to talk to you in depth about your creative side :)

I have four tattoos. They are all written in my handwriting. Also I always keep this in mind when placing them on my body: the left side of the body is the receiving side, while the right side is the giving side (in terms of energy).

I got my first tattoo when I was 14 in Fiji. My mama and I both got the phrase “have faith” on our left wrists. My mama was spending long periods in Fiji at the time, so it was a personal reminder to myself that everything happens for a reason. It keeps us together when we are apart.

My second tattoo is the phrase “spread light, speak truth.” Those words mean a lot to me because that sums up everything I intend to do with my life. It’s placed on my right rib, because it’s what I want to give to the world.

The third tattoo is on my inner lip, right in the center of my body. I got this one in Fiji with one of my best friends Torika. I got “yalo” which means soul in Fijian. Torika got “marau.” Together, the phrase means “happy soul.”

Let the feels come

I haven’t updated this lil blog of mine for quite some time now. I’ve been living in Los Angeles for over 6 months now and it’s been wilder than I ever dreamed. It’s time I shared a bit of the excitement with my friends and family back home.

I came to Los Angeles to study Visual Communications at FIDM, but I’ve been surrounded by music since I arrived. I’ve been singing since I could talk, playing guitar and writing songs since I was in the 3rd grade. It was always my childhood dream to create music and share my words with souls around the world. But life happened, and somewhere during the mess that is high school, that big dream was placed far off in the back of my mind. I promised myself I would get back into it, but it wasn’t until moving to Los Angeles that those dreams were restored for me.

My focus shifted in January. I started making music again. A lot of it. It all happened really quickly, as if all the words I couldn’t sing for the past four years were released in a flood that came pouring out of my heart. Thanks to wonderful friends who believe in me more than I could ever hope for and the blessing of a family who supports me wherever I go, my Dream of Sounds has once again been filled with life. 

I’m in the process of recording my first project. I’ve written every single word, I’ve written every melody on my guitar, I’m producing it myself, and I’ve got the support and guidance of some very wise friends who have inspired me to no end. I really feel like I can do anything, like I’m in the flow of the universe and I’m trusting it to take me wherever I’m meant to be.

So that’s where I’m at. Working harder than ever and singing my little heart out. Channelling all the highs and lows of life into my Dream of Sounds. Keep an eye out, I’ll have songs to share very soon and I’m extremely excited to do so. I’m investing my whole heart into this project, every part of my soul. This is the most personal work of art I have ever created. It’s been a journey already, but this is only the beginning and there will be many more things to share as this path progresses. All I ever hope to do is to share love and impact the world with positive change and emotional honesty. Thank you to everyone who has filled me with light and love along the way. You are wonderful and I hope I can make you proud.
