TWEAK on: music.
music obviously plays important part of my life besides. but Jesus Christ comes first, then music. and i know that i play music because God called me to play it. i was in 8th grade when God placed it on my heart that music would be what i did with the rest of my life. i didnt know really what it would involve. i only played trumpet back then, but God has really taken my life to where now He has me playing several more.
and so, i am a music major in college and i play a few instruments. i own 3 trumpets, one pocket trumpet (its really stupid but it was cheap, so i warm up with it in the car), a trombone, 4 electric guitars, 3 electric basses (1 is fretless), 1 classical guitar, a very old piano, and like 4 harmonicas in different keys. i also have a really crappy clarinet. do i think i'm cool? no. do you think i'm cool? you'd better, or i'll...something...to you. at any rate, i think youre cool, so yay!
in college i have to learn how to play other stuff. i learned how to play the piano but i really suck at it. i learned how to play the trombone and i suck at that too. i had to learn the flute, clarinet, and alto sax. but in the end, its worth it, i think.
they want us to get MORE instruments in for college. what i have isnt enough, i also need a flugal horn and a trumpet in the key of c, and probably a piccolo trumpet. now look, i'd buy them but what these people dont realize is that i gave them all my money for them to educate me. if they want me to have these so badly, they can buy them for me, thats what i say!
some music for you to enjoy.
PUNK/SKA Buck Enterprises - i tried out for them but i sucked. Five Iron Frenzy - i've seen them many times and they kick butt. in fact, they rule butt. The Insyderz - i dont know what these guys are doin lately, but i worked for them at kb '99 The OC Supertones - i've seen them like 15 times and i worked for then in '97. and february 10. 2002 i played with them on stage. ahahaha. The Skadaddles - no longer together but their 2 albums are like nothing i've ever heard The Madkatz - saw them once in ohio at life 2001, and thought they were cool. Freeto Boat - they shouldnt have gotten rid of the horns Squad Five-0 MxPx Slick Shoes Noggin Toboggan Face Value Watashi Wa Hangnail Dogwood Relient K Philmore

TWEAK on: friends and family.
i dont know if i can really name people here. see normally this would be like the "shout outs" thing (or as the spellingly challenged people say 'shout outz') where i would say yeah i everyone and then name all our good times and say some inside jokes that only that person and that person alone would understand. now why the heak do people do that, i mean only ONE person, maybe 2 or 3 but usually only one will understand what that means and then what the heak you wasted a half an hour thinking about something that happened in 5th grade that wasn't really funny in the first place and then other people feel singled out! do you know how that feels?? hmm? do you carl??? it feels terrible! yeah carl i'm talkin to you, you know we've been friends since 1st grade and what do you do you just forget about your best friend in the whole world i mean what are you trying to say, am i that forgetable?? or do you not like me anymore i mean whats your "beef"? hmm what is a beef anyway i mean personally i like beef i think its a good source of protien but yeah...what was i talking about? oh yeah stay out of my dresser mom, some things are private, gees.
to all my other friends and NOT carl and not my mom because she goes through my stuff, i have to say i love you and you guys are more than i could ask for. i say that from the bottom of my heart...does a heart have a bottom? i mean there's all these arteries and ventricles and atriums and stuff so its hard to tell...
family is so important. the whole family structure is basically essential. i hate to see all this stuff happen to kids everyday in their homes because their have problems. it really is a drain on the kids, and sometimes things happen to them in the end like drugs or gangs or just really stupid things. i think if people wouldn't get married and then divorced like after a year and a half there would be a lot less problems among teenagers and stuff. i know how it is, not personally but i have a lot of friends whose families are just not the way they should be. i also think that parents should take responsibility for their actions and also they should show more love to their children. i think it is unfair when parents behave unfairly to their kids.
likewise i think kids should show more respect to their parents. they need to obey them and show respect to them.
disciplining a child is not a bad thing when they are being disobedient. i hate seeing all these stupid things happen where one person sues a parent for hitting a kid. of course you cant beat a kid, i never said that. but hitting isnt wrong and i think its retarded for all these stupid things to go on all the time thats my 2 cents.
TWEAK on: important things like college and careers.
college is hard. i'm going for music performance and i play trumpet. i thought it wouldn't be that hard, but they really crack down on you...until you DIE! see, they all ready killed me like 5 times. practicing only 8 hours a week only gives you the grade of a c. so, yeah...and at some point i hope to double major in acting...good gravy i am going to be over worked.
oh yeah, i failed math too. but, like so did everyone else in my class. the teacher was dumb, i think he got fired, so it was all good.
i go to schenectady county community college. they have an awesome music program.
as far as a career...well, i hope to do one of 2 things: play music professionally, or be on tv or in movies as an actor, man that would be so much fun. a lot of people said i should have my own show, hahaha... but i seriously want to get into acting and music as future (or present) careers.
a wise man once said, "where ever you go, there you are." i try to apply this to my life everyday in hopes that i will better achieve my goals in life and become a better human being.
let me be in the know.
