I suppose it's about time to start this thing back up. I'm not some overly-sappy emotional wreck anymore.
So, what's changed since my last post... I'm definitely more involved with music. I've gotten pretty decent at the guitar, and I'm currently involved in three musical projects. I've decided to take up on Brett's advice and try writing some stuff down every day, no matter how shitty it is. Speaking of Brett, I've started to take lessons for the guitar. Brett's my teacher, you see, and he's an absolute genius on the instrument. Hopefully, some of it might rub off on me.
I've been single since my last post. She was a sweetheart, but I suppose I destined the whole thing for failure. I do wish her well, though. I'm now getting back into the routine of dating and stuff. The Walgreens thing is still alive, though I'm working down the street at a different store. I never did get that Gibson, but I did pick up a sweet red Telecaster for like, $400 or something. I've lost a bit of weight since then, but I've still got quite a bit more to go. I'm currently attending the University of North Florida, which is a bit of an achievement for me. I've become quite fond of the colors black and red, as they symbolize bravery and brashness in Chinese lion mythology. I'm a bit more "black" than "red", but hopefully I'll grow out of my recklessness. I'm an education major at UNF.
Well, I think life's going to me grand.
And now, my first daily poem.
When you wake up in the morning 'cause you just couldn't sleep
Because a monster is in hiding just beneath your sheets
Just reach under, grab his hand and pull him out of your bed.
He'll probably try to eat you; make him pancakes instead.
Tell him your life story and how you'd like it to end.
He's probably real lonely and in search of friends.
Share with him some laughter and some coloring pens.
Help him write a song to sing again and again that goes...
Ohh, I wrote you this song 'cause I feel so alone.
How I wish you would say, "I'm yours, and you're my own."
'Cause I think I really like you, and I hope you like me too.
Someday, I hope you realize that all I want is to be with you.
