I managed to make a somewhat understandable paragraph out of about 10 different song lyrics!
But yea if you can make it out that a basic version of how I feel, presented in the form of lyrics which are the biggest outlet of feelings ever. I figured it'd be more interesting than just writing them out like everyone else. That is mainly the only thing we use the blogs for lol.
Well our first ever band practice was actually amazing. Lay Down sounds great and we pretty much wrote a whole original in about 1 hour, so that was definitely a win. The original sounds amazing too, its just so fucking awesome. Everyone loves it too it's so sweet. So yea if we keep up like this we'll have probably 2-3 orginals and 4 or so good covers in a month and we'll start playing some shows!!! We already have that one song as an original, and unfinished one that needs touch ups and a hilarious extremely happy riff dylan wrote that we thought would actually make an incredible screamo chorus. So there that's 3 originals to be touched up and need vocals. So everyone was hoping to get the song we wrote last practice finished and have a rough first version demo sort of thing recorded during the week through an actually audio jack so we can get some good quality recordings. But yea hopefully we'll be playing our first show in about a month and if all of our songs sound as awesome as this one we'll be playing big shows fast!

Alright so that was my day guys =D
Well that only killed about 5 minutes... lame.
These blogs are boring, theres no point, im bored, i wrote about my day haha.
What else is there to talk about... umm no work until saturday! hooray! thats cool. I want to go to the gym tomorow, i did nothing over the break i just lazed around so may as well start going again.
hmm.. everyone seems depressed lately. Like the world was taken over by a depressing miasma. I don't know, I feel pretty fine, for the most part. When I get sad I just get optimistic, which considering the circumstances, isn't hard. It cheers me up. I guess you could say right now I'm not sad just impatient. So I'm trying to fill the time up with tons of stuff to do. Drumming, song writing, going to the gym, working. My main reason for working isnt even the money, i dont want money now, i want it for the future but i just wanted a job so i could fill some time. Life's kinda funny right now kind of in a twisted sort of way. Kind of like god's testing us all. Seeing how much we can take. I doubt I'm the only one who feels like this, like we're being tryed. I know it'll work out, a week ago... yea. That was as real as it gets, like a wait for me sorta thing, that one moment. No one knows what the fuck im talking about but yea i dont really either. Everything happens for a reason right. Well it sure can be hard sometimes to think of the reasons. But I think I should be doing something right now. Something more than what I'm already doing. Reprioritize a bit. I think I've got it though. Good things come when you least expect them, I'm just gonna stack the deck a bit while i wait.
I've never felt so motivated in my life to do something, make something out of myself. I just need 4 others with the same mindset. Pretty sure I've got 2 already at least, hopefully 4. dont know. I just want to do this enough fucking around, Dylan has the exact same idea as me, almost positive Max does too. So why has nothing happened? I was hoping by now to at least have a set. So I'm done fucking around doing nothing. I'm tired of playing everyday to a track.
Yea and I also want to go to the gym regularily again =P
K well I just wasted about 30 mins sweet now ima go to sleep lol
Holy shit!!!

Now could it be maybe it's not me, YEAH! sleePING! Could it be maybe yoouu awakening?
WORDS SO SECURE SCREAMING LIKE AN ALARM!!
Are you trying to wake me up?
NOW WHAT'S THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO PULL, IS IT MY ARM?!!
I do believe you're trying to wake me up
Now could it be maybe it's not me YEAH!! sleePING!!!
Could it be maybe you awakening?
Sleep this time tonight
Sleepwalk in the light
Sleep this time tonight
(One day we'll)Sleepwalk out of sight
Now here, I, am, but I'm just sleepwalking
Yes here, I, stand
But I guess I'm just sleeptalking for myself
One day this world will see me at the horizon
One day from a distant light
And just before I stand to face my love
I'll turn around and with a smile I'll say my goodbyes
Just one last goodbye... GOODBYE!
Not exactly sure what the last stanza (bridge) is supposed to mean, but this song is the fucking most amazing song ever made. It's a great song to play to, so me dylan and anyone else who wants to are gonna play it for the fun of it because its fucking amazing. Haha love it, listened to it like 30 times. Last night was pretty sweet too. Tonight will probably pretty sweet. Yea, thursday i have nothing friday is gonna be funny and yea sat and sunday i have no clue. Yep

Well we've been talking for like the past 2 hours now. It's pretty sweet. Things are pretty much just like they were last break, and i cant stop remembering boxing day, and just like the whole winter break and half on january I always have the same reoccuring dreams of the two of us. Just purely happy dreams that make me want to just sleep all day. Haha hopefully, this time the dreams will be reality.

Omg!! Chris can draw!!!

K so I'm really shocked right now. I'm the guy who always thought I can only draw stick figures and that I'm the worst artist ever. Well as seen above I'm pretty decent considering I just started drawing yesterday and this is the first drawing I've done of a picture off the internet. Never done that ever before in my life. I have to say I'm dumbfounded and extremely proud of myself for actually drawing that. Who knew I could draw? I have to say I love my new found skill, I've always wanted to be able to draw and i guess i never really tried until now and I have to say it's soooo much fun. I'll probably be spending a lot of time now drawing either my own creations or other replicating others. Like Inuyasha ^_^
I just decided to share that with you because i bet you'll all be as surprised as I am. ^_^

This was gonna be a comment on Mark's post but yea it was so big i decided to make it into a blogpost.
Hmm... faces look retarded in this thing.
Yea, i agree with Max; you shouldn't be so quick to give up. You might just have to give it some time to let her get over Jeremy. But as far as Jeremy goes no ones very happy with him right now.
Everyone hates how the reason he dumped Cassidy was so that he could cheat on her if he ever felt like. They act exactly the same as they did a couple months ago. It's annoying how he's made out to be such a ladies man even though all he is is desperate. Almost any guy can get a girlfriend like Jeremy can but most of us have the dignity not to ask out any and every girl that so much as smiles at us or shows the slightest interest in us. Funny thing is that actually Jeremy isn't very smooth with the ladies at all. He's liked by about as many people as any other guy I can think of is, probably less girls like him than most other guys do actually. He just brags about every girl that likes him and stretches the truth. Actually as far as women go I feel bad for him. The only girlfriend he's kept for more than 1 week is Cassidy. Girls definitely aren't his strong point in life because he's (apparently) had 20 girlfriends and everysingle one but Cass dumped him the first week.
I feel bad for Kellen because everytime he gets any time with Cass Jeremy jumps beside her and practically starts making out with her and Kellen has always liked Cassidy more than Jeremy ever has. Kellen has always cared about her, one thing I'm sure Jeremy never put much thought into. Another thing he's done that Dylan, Max and I.. even Matt are pissed at him for is being a good for nothing bassist that hasnt shown up to a single practice. He gets one final chance to prove his worth thursday and if he's not there or if he sucks at the bass (one of those things is bound to happen) he's out. No more of that bullshit. That's the thing I'm pissed at him for right now, everything else with the girls and stuff is just Jeremy, he'll always be like that.
Don't get me wrong Jeremy's one of my best friends and he's tons of fun to hang out with and stuff but yea as far as women, morales and showing up to practice goes he's a fail and nobody agrees with him in those areas.
Well that was all gonna end up being a comment on Mark's last post but yea i figured I may as well turn it into my first post in like a month. To tell say the truth I forgot about this site. Probably because I can never think of anything to write about. Ok, well that's a lie. I can think of things but I don't bother writing most of it because I'm sure most people wouldn't want to spend the time reading it. Everybodies expressed their disinterest in my blog anyways. So if I ever have anything to say I say it out loud to people that care to listen.
I've hit that stage in my life where nothing seems to matter anymore. I guess it's only natural everyone goes through it. My parents did and my children will also. Nothing's so special anymore Christmas, Birthdays, holidays in general. All the childhood joys are no longer fulfilling and I havent hit the age where other things are exciting, like travelling the world, going to college, really starting my life, getting married and all tha stuff.
Lately I've just been doing stuff to try and fill the time. The one thing I look forward to now the most is playing music. Even if it's only me alone playing to a track, it's still amazing. It's a let down when Jeremy doesnt show up and he probably cant even play. I was hoping we'd actually have a bassist and a full band that with alot of hard work we could get going. Well now we need a bassist, big let down. Guess we're not going to be performing all too soon.
Whatever in this time when I'm not actually playing with my band I can write some music that we can use some of it later in future originals. I guess I can't really complain though, as a drummer I'm actually fairly renowned, I'm known as the best drummer at thomas haney by everyone who goes there and in the small music crowd at Pitt I'm known as a damn good drummer, best at Pitt easily. At least thss also has Will and that other guy who are also pretty good. I have Gary's praise he considers me one of the best drummers he's ever taught and says I have amazing potential, the potential to become as him in many many years but eventually reach his current level. So that's awesome that he thinks so highly of me as a student.
I just want to perform though so more people can see how great my band will be, once we find a bassist and get our shit together. We have the potential to be great just not the best conditions. shitty amps and such, and no bassist. unless jeremy is amazing and will show up to all our next practices...
That ends a long post lol, i have nothing else to say on those 2 subjects.
