Some updates
SCHOOL
This semester has been on and off as far as my level of concentration goes. I was all about getting straight A's for the first five weeks of the semester. But after the tedious process of moving out, dealing with other people's bullshit, and a combination of other things, I've started to not care as much. I'm trying to recover though, it's just hard. I only have about five more weeks left. Might as well stick with it. I hope I can graduate sometime soon, and by that I mean a year and a half :/
O well, it will be worth it in the long run. I'm going to start looking for a job and volunteer work for this summer. I need to build up my resume more.
BAND
I've been playing shows like crazy in the past couple months. We've been playing at youth centers, old theaters, bars, and even skate parks lol. And although I have the time of my life for that brief moment being on stage, I can't say it's worth all of the trouble. I've thought about it and I'm most likely going to leave the band. It's for my best interest in my opinion. I don't like being committed to something that won't give me any guaranteed payout. Out of all the venues my band has played, the most we've ever made is $30 bucks, and that only covers gas. I think what most musicians don't realize is that it's so hard to get big and make money. Which leads me to the other thing, the genre.
I play metal music, which is probably the most inconspicuous thing about me (Besides being a furry). I like the guitar playing in the music, but basically hate everything else about it. I hate the fans, I hate most of the messages it brings, and how underground it is. I think I need to play something more sophisticated like blues or jazz. I believe that's more me.
ONE LAST THING
I'm also now single and enjoying every single second of it. :)
Here's a vid of my band if you wanna check it out!
I'm the guitarist to the left in navy blue. This was the skate park show we played last week.
