I had an inspiring weekend, so this is what I got.
At times, words do not come easy Long rides, a meaningful song, can show the way Lost in a sea of restless slumber
It comes down to this…you are a ship in a bottle
What will it take to crack the glass? A blunt object, a poem, maybe a smile? Nevertheless, a ticket to sail has its price This is a confession, a thought, a feeling
It comes down to this…you are a ship in a bottle Solely there for one to admire…never to touch
Years will go by, as they always do One day, your glass might break Upon the liberated ship, a new captain awaitsCurrent Mood: artistic Current Music: Journey

I'm just sitting here watching Matrix reloaded, so i'll write alittle bit...
This was probably the fastest weekend i've had in a while. Friday was like a blur...work, class, work, Angie's fashion show was the highlight of the day. It's amazing how talented she is with what she does, and i'm really proud to be in the same family as her. Her sisters (my other two cousins) modeled some of her designs as well. I never would have thought 5 years ago i'd be going to fashion shows, but i learned to appreciate it and admire it.
After that it was the Star Wars ep. III viewing in my room. Now for those of you that don't know what it's like to watch movies in my room, it's like being at the theater. My roomie and i have a half stack with the tv on top of it, my 5.1 surround on my computer all hooked to the dvd player...nuff said. Finished that, went to Meg's appartment with Matt and chilled with her, Angie, and Angela (yes there's two of them) and nothing eventful happened, we talked, laughed, went to bed.
Saturday, I got up, ate, fixed Angie's computer, went grocery shopping cause she wanted to cook dinner and have a good meal. I cooked pork tender loins, Angie made pasta, Angela made garlic bread and salad...it was a good meal i must say. After that we played battle of the sexes for hours, and the guys won (of course) and that was that...back to my room, played some smash bros (because it's so therapeutic) and went to bed.
Today, went to fine arts and rehearsed the R&B band for the show monday. I don't know what it is with some of these singers, but they don't show up to practice, and they think i'm gonna let them sing tomorrow? fuck that! I didn't feel we needed a weekend rehearsal, but that's just me being me...i was at class, on time, and i worked hard to learn the songs on piano that they wanted to sing, and i did my part. They didn't meet me half way and just show up...how hard is it to show up to a class where you sing? i mean is there an easier way to get an A? I don't sing, i play the piano for the singers, and if i didn't show up, there wouldn't be a rehearsal cause there would be no music... ...wow i was on a rant there...anyway, I rehearsed the ones who cared enough to show up and work, and then went in the grand piano practice room and played for a good hour and 20min. It felt like i just got a full nights sleep after i got out. Music really is the best medicine out there. Went to pizza hut for dinner...funny thing happened there, but if you want to know you'll have to ask cause it's too good a story to write all out.Current Mood:  calm Current Music: The wind blowing outside

| » Magic music |
You ever wondered what happens when you listen to music for a really long time? Well, I did that tonight. It's amazing what you'll hear and piece together as the songs change from one to another. I think I learned how to cure writers block tonight, because I haven't been able to write something that I thought was me for awhile. I don't know if it's the parts of songs that stuck out to me, or what i was feeling to begin with and it took the magic of music to bring it out.
But after bombarding my soul with music and lyrics, this kinda just poured out of me:
Feel it...in the air The coldness tonight, as the clouds turn grey I'll leave without a trace...
I won't last the night The guidance of the gods grows weak As I leave without a trace...
Walk alone, the air is the ground Leaving no footprints in the clouds They disappear...without a trace
Some look for pieces They'll look for me, for them, for they Will I return? One day...one day
Till then, I leave you....without a trace

Update!
So i'm just here at work at the helpdesk listening to kyle play the banjo and matt clean the porn and stuff off his family computer...cough cough...
Life has been non-eventful for awhile, just college and life. 19 credits and 10 hours of work a week on top of it all 3 performance bands is a lot on my plate. I was talking to some friends and i was telling them about the patterns i'm starting to notice about myself. I'll admit, when I came back to college, I was looking for a girl. And whenever i'm looking, i can't find one that i want. And once i say ya know, fuck it, i don't need this now. I start just waking up for me and music. Those being the 2 biggest things that keep me going. Once i get females and relationships out of my head, the opportunity to start practically throws itself at my feet. WTF!!!! where were you when i was lookin!? And i start getting this shit like, "I don't know why you don't have a g/f you could get anyone you want." Fuck that cause it's just fucked up saying. It's so far from the truth.
Other than the patterns of life, it's a shame that those of us who used to be close can't co-exist anymore. I wish things could just get patched up, but i don't think it ever will. Life isn't consistent, and the people you meet won't always be the same people with the same mind and morals. People make selfish decisions that may hurt people. Problem is they selfishly and blindly do these things and not think about the consequences of their actions. But at least have the decency to admit to your mistakes. This isn't a message to anyone, this is just my feelings, i'll say what i have to those who need to hear it.
I'll admit, in a different situation, i'm guilty of making poor decisions. i don't get to spend time with one of my best friends like i used to anymore, and it's a major hole right now. I took too many disappointments personal, and reacted selfishly. It's difficult when i go to college and he is still home going to college. I just sucks that we can't go back to the way things were; no worries and playing music all the time.

Yeah so it came to my attention that i don't update this thing enough, so here's what's been up...
I'm back at college already. Just finished training for the computer helpdesk (i'm becoming a computer geek) the training was actually really good...it's not like the usual training that when you get down with it you still don't know what the hell is going on...i actually learned a lot from it, and met some cool people along the way...i think the saying third times a charm is true so far...my third year living in the same room in college has finally paid off...i have the HOTTEST RA on campus, thank you god...
Summer seemed to fly by, i worked for Central Hudson checking the power polls for stray voltage and overall conditions for $12 an hour plus $5 an hour for car expenses...it was a pretty kick ass summer job and i only worked 4 days a week 10 hours a day...my sisters had the most amazing babysitter a kid could ask for. she is something special...i hope her b/f knows what he's got cause she's a diamond in the rough...anyone of my friends that met her would say the same...
I started teaching myself guitar this summer...i played for about an hour a day...i think it paid off...i think in another year i'll be a decent player...
..but here's to a new school year, and here's to the new adventures and people i'll meet this year...
i'll try to update more often

This past weekend, someone who was and is still very dear to me lost her father to lung cancer...he was only 51...i write this so those who might complain that their parents suck or whatever the case is, just take a moment and be thankful that you didn't have to go through what my ex-g/f went through...i looked at my father after finding out, and i broke down crying, cause as much as we don't see eye-to-eye, i love him to death and i take for granted that he'll be here when i get up everyday...so take this time to tell your parents, your loved ones how much you love and care about them...you won't know how much they mean to you until they're not there anymore...
...and for you Rachel, you know i'd do anything for you...and your family...whatever happened in our past was the past...with that said, i'll be there...tomorrow, the day after, whenever...

it was a good fathers day this year, it was nice to spend an afternoon with dad without small shit getting in the way and he was just able to enjoy having his family around...i can't imagine what that must feel like...but i yearn for the day that i have that feeling, having a companion, and children, and being loved by them and loving them in return...but for now i'm thankful for what i have...a father who's healthy and well. And i pray for those who's father's aren't with us anymore, or those who are ill and this father's day might be their last father's day...i pray for them, and i pray that i may have another good year with my dad.

you know what the difference between your heart and your mind is?
Your heart doesn't think...it just knows...no thought process is ever needed... ...your mind doesn't work like that

This is for Eric cause he wanted some poetry, so here's some poetry for ya Eric...
Now we see the crossroads The Traffic light says go But, the heart says stop
Now we see each other The look in your eyes say go But, the heart says stop
We are those crossroads Our eyes are the traffic lights saying go The heart is the vehicle without fuel
Fill the tank with passion Time to finish the journey One step at a time
Once we're at the other side There will still be a crossroad But now, now it is a road crossed

"Honesty is such a lonely word Everyone is so untrue Honesty is hardly ever heard And mostly what I need from you"
No this is not about girl problems so just get that out of the way. It's about people making bad choices and the consequences that follow. It's bad enough that people fuck up, but shit, clear your fucking name and just fix things the right way. i refuse to get involved in whatever mess there is now. i'm putting away the mop and bucket, it's time to mop up your own shit. Both parties of this mess need to clean their shit up.
That's one thing out of the way.
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions."
We hear this cliche all the time, but god dammit it's the truth! Somethings don't need to be worked out. Leave and let die for Gods sake! too much talking just harvests drama. so stop talking and leave things be. there are bigger things to worry about then all this petty shit that is constantly going around. I refuse to let anymore of this shit enter into my everyday like it has been, i will put a stop to it, and some aren't going to like me for awhile, but my road will be clean. And there will be peace.

This is just a cool inspiring story i wrote...no it doesn't necessarily reflect how i am right now...it just came to me...so here it is
Walking alone one night Without a destination You look around…your own street becomes unfamiliar
The moon is your only light You hear a soft whisper “Who are you?”
You turn to the voice No longer is the moon shining on you You see a small child; it’s yourself, innocently looking up at you
It repeats, “Who are you?” You turn and continue walking, quickening your pace Your heart, now beating faster and faster with each step
The light, now behind you, engulfing your child-like self You stop to catch your breath; the light appears next to you You look back, nothing is there
Out of the corner of your eye You see the light again, and you hear “What are you?” Staring back at you, is yourself, as you are now
Your fear and confusion grow more Is this a dream? Or the powers of the evil one You quickly turn from yourself, and run
You make it to what is the end of your driveway As you make your way through the darkness You see an unusual silhouette standing in front of you
The light now again on you The silhouette falls to the ground You run to see who, or what it is
An old, sad face looks back at you With a stare so powerful, it appears to take every ounce of strength to look The old one struggles out the words “Why…are….you?”
The aged figure lies before you It is you…you just watched your own death Without words or thoughts you cry
“Who am I?” “What am I?” “Why am I?”
Why were these unanswerable questions asked? You don’t know the answers Deep down, you know that you need to know
You realize you need to find out who you are Your young self needs to have something to become That’s why it appeared to you
You know you need to do something with your life That way you, yourself now, has something to offer to the world You, appearing to yourself explains that
The one you can’t answer, is why Because there is never a definite answer to why You’ll find out why when you die
You walk to your door You go inside, with a new realization Knowing, that you just had the most valuable epiphany anyone can have

Well it's been awhile, but here's what's been up. Matt and I went to Binghamton last week to go see Incubus and that was fucking AMAZING!!!

People who know me and know me well, know that the one thing i hold more precious to me than anything else is my family...and when i see someone in my family getting mistreated, i go nuts...that's what's happening here almost every weekend here...my cousin lives across the hall from me with megan...and every weekend her "fiance" comes to visit...i've never seen a more dysfunctional person or relationship...he is the most manipulative piece of shit...and i'm on my last string with him...and i'm just speaking for myself but i know there are more people who agree with and stand with me...the good news is i had a good talk with her and i think it got her thinking, at least i hope it did...cause i don't know how i'm supposed to say seated at the wedding when the minister says "If anyway objects to these two being wed, speak now or forever hold your peace yada yada yada"...I won't be able to stay seated...i expressed my views and what the real story behind him is...and how he's just a big manipulator...i hope and pray that it all works out...and i'm not saying i don't want them to get married, but they need a lot of counseling before anything like that happens...that's all for now...i have so much shit to do...it's crazy...ciao
