I'm starting to get better with writing in here...I think. So my usual day, I come home and I read away messages and the usual, check Facebook and whatnot, then I get on my way with doing nothing all day except school work, listening to music, and playing the guitar (which is in dire need of new strings). But when I read away messages, a lot of people have something clever to say, or they quote a philosopher, or a great song, something along those lines. And I always think that, I wish I had witty sayings and such, but I don't. So there's not really anything I can do about it, unless I become witty, but I'm not yet, I am a smartass from time to time, does that count as witty? I don't really think it does, but oh well. Usually, I just put up a song lyric that either means a lot to me, or is just from a good song, or is a great lyric, because I really like songs that have good lyrics to them. And speaking of which, I've been working on some of my own songs lately, and I'm pretty happy with them. I don't know when I am finally going to be able to record them because it is too damn loud in this apartment. So lately I've been thinking that I might not come home for Thanksgiving break and instead, stay out here and record some music, relax, and just do my own thing. I'm sure my parents wouldn't want me to stay here but it beats working at Canal's. We'll see how that turns out.
The other day, I watched the movie Reign Over Me with my roommates. I'm going to start off by saying what an amazing movie it was. Don Cheadle and Adam Sandler are both brilliant. I think I liked Adam Sandler's performance more, only because it is quite rare that he does something other then comedy. He was probably the perfect person for the part, and it was really hard to hold back tears. If I was watching alone, odds are that I would bawl my eyes out, but it is simply a great movie. The movie also brought me to think about a certain day in history. That day, obviously being September 11th, 2001. I've been told my people that they remember where they were on big days in history (Pearl Harbor, Kennedy Assassination, etc.). I remember exactly where I was when I first heard about this. I was getting changed for gym class and a friend came in and told me that a plane had hit one of the World Trade Center towers. At first, I just thought a small plane with a pilot flying too low lost control or something. My next class was a computer course with the one and only Mrs. Butler (holla Greg). That is when I found out how serious things really were. It was overall just a devastating day. I must say though, it was amazing afterwards to see the patriotism of the country really come out. But yeah, I knew exactly where I was and it was a scary day.
More to come soon, hopefully some recording will get done so I can actually have demos to write lyrics to or whatever. And maybe I can post them on here.

Until next time...
