Don't you love those moments of music-induced nostalgia?
Right now i'm listening to Death Cab for the first time in months and just reveling in the memories i've attached to them from high school. I think for the first time since leaving I am homesick. It's not really a bad homesick though, it's more of an appreciation for an old part of my life passed, and a full realization that a new phase has begun.
I think a lot of times even the "bad" parts of life are great, given enough time has passed since a "bad" part that is. But I personally love them.
One thing I really really miss: playing music in a group. Sure I can practice drums by myself as much as I want, but it's obviuosly not the same as playing in a group or playing live. I've jammed with Angel (keyboard player in our building) a few times, but I think I will explode if I don't start having a more regular creative outlet other than just my practicing drums. What ever happened to Yeah Catullus? We were so good. Mark, get yo ass over here and let's make some tunes!
I think i'll also try my hand in songwriting. I'm sure I won't be very good at first, but the ideas in my head have slowly gotten better and better over the past few months, and i'm learning piano now (college class) so that will help.
Miss you guys <3
