**Dont get used to this, I always promised myself i would never do this kind of entry.***
Just sitting here, music playing softly in the background and my eyes just starring at the keyboard trying to figure out how to begin this entry. It's much more difficult than i thought. So much has happened, and i am thankful for all of it. I close my eyes and veer off into an imaginary world that basically resembles Utopia; I smile, open my eyes and just allow my fingers to do the majic while i begin this entry into a journal posted live for the eyes of whomever wants to read it.
Last night as Jared, David, Dan, and I took the stage in our black slacks, black long sleeves, and white ties we played our hearts out for our friends, family, and fans. We are so grateful for everyone who has come out to see us play in the last year or so. Our website, www.BreathingChemistry.com will be updated as always for upcoming shows in the future.
I gazed across the crowd to see the smiling of some of my best friends. Friends some people could only dream of. Thank you everyone who has helped me and been there for me along the way. And especially those who put up with my crap, but still attended our Real World/American Idol Tuesdays.
I came home last night after the show and saw a note on the table from my parents. It read, "John, we hope you had a great time at your show tonight. Sorry we couldnt make it, but we will be sure to be at your next one. Love Mom and Dad." Maybe it's just me, but somehow that meant just as much as them being there for me.
Then i fell asleep and woke up to the ringing of my telephone at 6:15 am. Yes of course, it was Laura. Last night when i played i closed my eyes and felt her there with me. She is with me always even while she is in another country right now. All i know is when i was asked something this morning, my response was "I know now for sure. It is definetly love." Some people may not understand this, but anything is possible and this is just an example of it. I look forward to seeing her on 4th of July weekend. Thank you Laura for making me a better person. I love You.
And last but not least, Jared...Dan...David...
You guys are the ultimate friends/bandmates a kid could ever ask for. Thank you guys so much for being here for me. I love you guys and cant wait to start a new life with you guys in Orlando. Good luck Jared and Dan with your girlfriends, i'll be with you guys! and David, try not to attract too many girls you stud!
And now i part away for a while. Tomorrow morning i leave for Orlando and begin school on Monday. I know i will be starting soemthing new but i wont ever forget everyone who has made the last four years of my life amazing. Thank you again, I love you all!
