New Beginnings
I had some time so I figured I’d blog. No rants today, just going for something along the lines of stream of consciousness. My back hurts like a bitch because I keep leaning on things instead of sitting straight, but I’m too lazy to sit straight because I want to be relaxed! Why can’t I have both? )=
I can’t wait to start playing A Passion Melancholic – Depapepe with Andy. I can’t believe I had never heard of them before. They’re music is just so dynamic! However, I wish they had some finger-style pieces in their mix, but regardless their music is phenomenal. However, this song has harder timings than Summer Parade, but S.P. has a lot of mobility on the frets, making it hard. I guess both are going to be challenging, eh?
Learning to sing with Acapella, and it’s awesome! I’ve always felt embarrassed by singing, but it looks like with their help, I will FINALLY not sing like crap. Beatboxing needs more work, of course. But what I really need is a mentor, or just someone to help me out with my style. It’s getting so dry, ._. I also need someone to teach me all of the cool sounds people make with their mouths x-x;; But so far I feel like I can mix it up decently, not too many rinse repeats.
Need to work on a stronger kick, I’ve been having trouble with it considering there are 12 – 13 singers compared to 1 bboxer. But I also need to watch out for making it sound like a fart, that’s way worse than not being heard. Also, the snares could be crisper, but how do I do that while not compromising volume?
Blah, calculus is still raping my ass. Hopefully Eddie can help me over the Thanksgiving weekend. Okay maybe I will rant a little bit. (x But seriously, who the hell is going to use optimization in their future lives? If I want to know the maximum area I can use with a copper wire I’ll just ask the guys at the Home Depot, shit. Even without the employees there, you can just use COMMON SENSE, and if that fails then just use trial and error! Who the hell wants to sit there and solve a ridiculously complicated mathematical equation? Freaking ridiculous.
I find it funny that as I rant this, my facial expression has not changed once. If I had to guess, my face would probably look like the, “BUHH..I don’t give a shit” face. It’s also ridiculously cold in my room for some reason. Good thing I have a shit ton of blankets and pillows to keep me warm. (=
Ah, tangent on dreams. I can’t remember my latest ones, but I have been dreaming more on a regular basis. I believe it was Friday night and Saturday morning, I had 3 separate dreams in one sitting (or laying, tee hee..?). It was really weird. One of them had to do with Eddie and I fighting over something COMPLETELY trivial and ending up hating each other, something like that. That dream then went on it’s own tangent and a burglar broke into our house and started snooping around. That dream ended soon enough and there was a serial killer outside our house. He ended up killing my uncle and someone who I couldn’t make out very well. My mom was screaming a claustrophobic person trapped inside a box, and it made me think. SOMEONE is trying to kill us, and you’re screaming? Really? Shut up and be quiet. Now I know that’s extremely rude to say to your parent, but it was a dream. My world, biiiitch! xD
Anyway, I really want to learn a slow, chilled out finger-style piece. That way I can jam by myself. :p. That and I don’t have to play chords anymore, or rely on another person to play my other part. I also need to practice bboxing while playing, that would definitely be a treat for people to see.
Rooooaarrr. I wanna be a billionaire..>_>;; so then I could by my parents like 5 houses- each! Finally starting to get tired at 5:00 A.M. Sigh.. not enough time to sleep. I’m scared if I ‘nap’ it might just sleep through school.
Speaking of school, I can’t wait for the ICC Charter Dinner! Sick ass shit goin’ down! =D. That and I somewhat want to get it over with. It’s in December, eesh.
Well, time to internet surf before school.
Until next time,
