I am Antsy...

I really really really want to perform on my guitar, I don't know why but for the last 2 weeks I have wanted to play and sing in front of an audience... i have found like 4 songs that I just want to get a drummer and a bass player and just have at it... that is what is so frustrating about school... it keeps me from doing cool and fun things like that.

speaking of cool and fun things... I have had the itch to go hiking for about a week now. 

I can't wait until summer!

Rock The Homework!!!

I woke up this morning with no intention of finishing all my homework, due to the fact that I procrastinated it all weekend . . .  and then, I woke up this morning (later than I should have) and got it done!  (I'll admit I didn't do all my reading, but I got the important stuff!)

So, for once procrastination paid!!! I got to do everything I wanted this weekend and still got all my homework done before class with minimal stress! Who says procrastination can't pay off?

oh, and those are the Rocky Mountains?!?!? That John Denver is full of crap!!!!!!

Business Finance

I am glad that I am not a business major anymore.

Business Finance is a little bit rough-er than I would have expected... then again, I should have realized that because people need to predict the future in order to make good business decisions... 

I can handle finances pretty well (and I'm humble too...)  but all this EBIT and OIROI stuff is spinning my head... it's not natural!!!

so, I'm pretty much saying I'm glad that I am here in my new major.

I dreamed a dream

So, Sunday I woke up with a song in my head (which is not odd because I usually wake up with a song in my head... or in my heart... or both) this experience was different though, because although I had a song in my head, it was one that I had never heard before... and it was only 2 lines long.

So, I spent the first hour of my sabbath recording the miraculous manifestation of musical mastery that I dreamed up.  It wasn't half bad when I finished... but I felt like something was amiss...

As I got into the shower (one of my more contemplative places in the world) I was still molested by the thought that I might not have had an original song... when right before I finished I realized where I had gotten part of the song... it was not a direct copy, but you can definitely see the influence (it is all in the verse, the part that I didn't dream up, so I don't feel so bad).

anyway, I was/am quite pleased with myself and the results.

that is all.

Will you go out... not with me?

why is it that it is so much easier and less stressful to ask out someone for someone else?
I mean besides all the obvious reasons... (I am not that stupid...)
I asked out a friend for another friend that I am doubling with on friday, and it was the easiest date conversation I have had with another person, it just flowed and was fun.
why can't it be that easy for a guy when he is asking a special someone out for himself instead of trying to hook up a buddy?

dating life is hard for single guys... (luckily, I am not one right now!)

life can be so unfair...

Silly Guys...

Mazda 3s are for girls.

TRUE!!!!!!

My Friends...

... real and purchased.

First the real ones:

I received some wonderful birthday presents this year... (my parents gave me money, so I got exactly what I wanted from them... I bought it all myself!!!)  the two that pop out the most in my mind are the ones that I see the most often: my new suspenders, and my new guitar stand.

Natalia gave me some freakin' sweet suspenders, which were worn at church today, and I must say make me look totally awesome! as evidenced by this picture:

Then, to make things even crazier her and Heather got me a new guitar stand (capable of holding 2 guitars at a time!!!) which is now in my room displaying both of my electric beauties. This present has helped me to get back into playing my bass, now that it is readily accessible, I am more willing to pull it out and lay down some hot grooves (the 2 that I know (yes, Lowrider is one of them!)... I am still working on learning more, but it is hard to play the bass without backing something else up, and I don't have a band to play in right now, so I run a little short on bass playing inspiration).

as far as purchased friends go, that would be my guitars... and I am now trying to increase my collection with a few new guitars: imagine Jack Black (in School of Rock) playing on his sweet guitar (a Gibson SG Special in a deep cherry red if I am not mistaken)... then think of a cheap imitation of that guitar... yeah, that is what I want.  Then imagine Kyle Gas (the other dude from Tenacious D) and the acoustic guitar that he plays on the music video of "Tribute" (by said Tenacious D) now change that guitar to an acoustic electric and then change the color from brown to a black and that is most likely the other guitar that I am interested in right now... (and yes, that would put my total up to 6 including the Ukulele and the Bass... I am obsessed and will admit it, on the grounds of brooklyn).  They are still in the works, as school has drained me of financial resources... but soon the government will give me back some of my tax money...(because I overpaid them like I always do...) and then... they will be MINE!!!! (insert mad scientist laughing here________.) (ok, that's more than enough.)

So, not to leave anyone else out, thanks to everyone who helped make my birthday cool! 

I love you all! Thank You and Goodnight!
