Just a quick update. I know I haven’t really updated too much since my initial surge, but the reason is that I am just enjoying the rest of summer. So I don’t think im really gonna be doing too much blogging until two weeks from now when summer was over so i can reflect and then complain and so forth haha. but word. peace

This is a bit random, but I realized recently how awesome Ford Field really is. Its a small little league place near where I live but it has turned out to be one of the best places to just chill. From Kan Jam-ing to watching lightning storms from the roof of the buildings its pretty damn fun. (more…)

Damn. Where do I start? NSLC was a lot more than a simple medical-leadership-nerd camp. I guess I’ll start the day before my flight. In an excellent display of preparation, I went to the airport a day early. I walked up to the check-in counter and the lady stared at me and said, “Son, I’m afraid your flight is tomorrow.” After pondering why she was scared, I told my dad and went home to get ready for the actual flight. But hey, at least I got a test run before my first time traveling alone right? Regardless, it wasn’t the best start to my first extended time away from home… (more…)

I always hear the saying, “People never change,” but I have a hard time believing it. I guess maybe some things like morals or basic nature are quite deeply rooted, but even then I think those change. Looking back on the past few years, I see it in myself. (more…)

The other day was a great day because I got a brand new amp. Its a black Fender Hot Rod Deluxe and it is one of my greatest purchases ever. When I say “my greatest purchase” I mean my impulse spending of my dad’s money. But yeah, it was worth it.

I figure I’d start by listing out what I actually have. So, here goes. For guitars I have a Mexican Fender Stratocaster which actually sounds amazing and an Ovation acoustic electric. I have a solid state crate amp that came with the guitar, but more importantly I just got an amazing Fender Hot Rod Deluxe. One of the most important things though is my capo. I love that thing. But thats about it. I can’t start posting songs until I actually record them, but I’ll get to that soon…
For drums, I honestly couldn’t tell you EXACTLY what I have, but either way I got a great deal on it and all my drummer friends are amazed by the quality of the set. Its a Yamaha set, and Im pretty sure its a Custom Noveaou. Right now I only have three toms, 10 12 and 14, a ride, crash, then obviously a snare, kick and high hat. The good thing is that the kick drum is beautiful. Its like a freaking cannon. I love it. Oh and I should definitely not leave this out– my good friend Henry is the reason I have this amazing set. He found it for me, it was cheap and he even helped me set up and everything (by help i mean he did it)

A Formal Introduction

Alright, so today I was sitting around doing absolutely nothing again when I decided that maybe I should use blogging to kill some time.I’d like to credit part of this blogging-urge to Athena; she showed me her blog, in which she really let out a lot and she is one of the many good friends I made from NSLC (I’ll probably designate a post to NSLC later). But back to blogging as a whole- people say its almost therapeutic; its a great way to let out emotions and talk about random crap. Now I’ve come to terms with that fact that most people don’t really give a shit about what I have to say, but the beauty of blogging is that I can pretend like there are people reading it. Unfortunately, WordPress tells me how many visits my blog has, effectively lifting my cloud of ignorance and proving that no one is actually reading this stuff, but whatever, I really don’t care.
