Hello, boys and girls!
I haven't had a chance to put anything on here in a while, so, where to start...
Oh, yes! I'm dating someone! She's named Hanah! I met her through a friend of mine. She's pretty cool to hang out with, she can keep up with my warped humour (and has one of her own), she's rather thoughtful, and cute. We've been together for about a month or so. So, yay and stuff!
Also, this job with
Alliance Data Systems is pretty trying right now, but it's nice. I actually have the appropriate privileges and tools to actually fix issues over the phone 90% of the time! The reason it's trying is most evening's I'm alone for two to three hours, and it ALWAYS... GETS... BUSY! It's tiring as hell, but I try not to let it stress me out. I'm just one man. I can only take those calls one at a time.
Oh, I made a big decision recently, too! I've decided to start going back to school part-time while I work. I've been approved to attend
Dallas County Community College and I'm going there to acquire a
Performing Musician Certificate in Commercial Music. After this, I may continue to get the
Associates Degree in Applied Science for it, which will benefit me more. What do I plan to do with it? Get the hell out of IT and start doing music more seriously. Even if it's jingles, background music for movies, shows, or video games, or whatever work-for-hire stuff, I'd like to get my foot in the door there as well as continue with my more independent pursuits.
I'm also doing it for Anthony Perry Schell (Schellino), my late grandfather, who lived with me through my childhood and taught me most of what I know of music. He's a big factor behind becoming a music major (as he was one) and I want to be writing songs and, like him, performing well into my elderly years. I wish he were still alive to see how proud I'm going to make him, but I have a feeling he'll see it in Heaven all the same.
The only downside is I'm starting to gain the weight I've worked hard to loose. I think I need to get more strict on my dieting again and find a way to get more exercise in. I can't blame it on video games (which I love playing) as I haven't had much time for them. Other then those, I have no real complaints!
There's my update on me, for those who are curious and care! Ciao for now!
