update
So I'm doing much better.
I saw Third Eye Blind in concert. It was the best rock show that I've ever been to. I think that is because they are my favorite band of all time. I sang along at the top of my lungs for over two hours. My voice is still recovering. But that may be because I haven't been able to sleep this week. I've had work very early. And the nights before I have to be there at 6am, I have to close and leave at 11. It's awful. Today I worked from 7am until 8:30 pm. I worked for 9 hours with Eric who is from dudeland. He is a complete bro. If you make a tiny mistake, he also rubs your face in it. I almost hit him today. I didn't even really make a mistake today though. I just hadn't gotten to the next task yet.
I've written 8 new songs this summer. I'll probably drop one of them. I may try to record them.
Fyi, I'm so fucking loopy right now.
I haven't had much luck with jobs. I did have an interview with Pac Sun. They are opening a store in Coolsprings. I went to the murfreesboro just to talk to someone after I applied online. They told me to just wait, but I pressed on, like I normally do, and this time they actually gave me an interview on the spot. I'm following up tomorrow.
I've been helping my jiu jitsu instructor teach self-defense and karate at mtsu. I met a girl there. She's an athlete. She plays soccer and used to practice karate. She seems fun. She is assertive, and she is gorgeous. We hung out last night. We did some cardio that focused on agility drills. So we ran and got to know each other. She makes me smile, but I feel weird. It's not the same. I just feel so strange. But I'm just getting to know this girl and can't reasonably expect to feel the same thing so soon after my last relationship. Especially when I got to know Amanda slowly over the course of 18 months. Anyway, I'm an idiot.
A lot of random people have asked me what I want to do. Actually they weren't really random at all, but anyway, I don't think I want a conventional vocation. I don't want to do one thing. I've always done lots of things. Fuck having one job, or even several 9-5 jobs for my whole life, retire, and then die, or whatever.
Short-term plan:
Finish up new songs
Record a demo and create a press kit
play shows
Take an amateur fight in the spring
do a month long tour
move out of the country, preferably to a spanish speaking country
finish learning spanish while there
stay there for 1-4 years
then grad school
