Blahhh....
My mind is crazy. I used to be a fairly optimistic person, but now I just find myself unsatisfied with the monotony of my life. I work and I hang out with Megan...and I try to save money, but nothing seems interesting anymore. I guess it's not entirely true. Stuff is interesting only if you make it. I just...got to keep my head straight. I don't feel like myself at all.
As of recently Ryan, Filip, and I had a household Olympics. We had 4 events: Poker, Wing Eating Contest, Bowling, and a Case Race. 3 points for first, 2 for second, and 1 point for 3rd in each event. At the end of the Olympics the person with the least points was to get the small room in our house. Well we had poker first and Ryan ended up taking that one. I went all in on a Full House...and he had a Full House. He had Full House-10 high ....and I had Full House 9-high! It was intense. Then we had Wing Eating....and Ryan took that one. He had 34 wings and I came in second with 32 wings. Then bowling which I totally sucked at and Filip crushed us in.
So by the end...Filip and I were the only competitors in a case race. And....i'll just say that....a case race is really hard. I lost. I puked before Filip. I finished 21 beers that night. Filip won because he finished his beers and because I puked first. But....man. It was hard. It was a hard time. At the end "The Judge" or Drew was forcing Filip and I to funnel....and....I funnelled like...a beer...and then 2 beers at once...and I just couldn't hold it. I was practically falling asleep standing.
Needless to say it that was exciting. Now i've got to build a loft for my bed and I get cheaper rent. Hell yeah. I'm sure the small room has it's perks.
Megan and I are still together. We had a rough patch for a week, but you work your problems out and now our relationship seems to be doing a lot better. She makes me happy and that's what is important.
Shallow Palace is doing well now. Took a few weeks to get our foundation built, but now we are able to collaborate really well and our songs sound good. I would still like to get on something with Paul because I miss jamming with Paul, but we both apparently have the clashing-est schedules around. I also wish I had an easy way to record...and a new amp.
Which brings me to my next few worries as of recnetly. I'm still broke. I don't understand what i'm doing wrong. It's like I'm always broke no matter how much I work and how much I try to budget I just can't hold on to my money. Something always comes up you know? Sucks, but there's not a lot I can really do except keep working and keep saving.
I hope school goes through. I haven't been accepted yet, but I'm pretty sure my application is complete. It's just going to suck registering for classes cause my classes are going to be really fucking early...and I am terrible at waking up early. Like...really bad at it. If it doesn't go through i'm not going to be that upset because I really hate school...and might prefer trying to get another job teaching guitar somewhere...or something like that. or just another job ingeneral wouldn't be bad...
SHould've thought about that earlier in the summer. Maybe I should take some bartending classes and see if I can get job doing that.
