9 - My Friends Don't Want To Go....Can I Get A Ride?
Two-thirds of 10° played a show at Don's house tonight in Mt. Clemensish. It was kind of a hassle getting out there, but the show itself was decent. It was for a bunch of Don's friends and family, so it was really low pressure, which was a major relief, since I had to play drums. Now, I've never been a great drummer...really, I've hardly been a decent drummer...so it was kind of rough, but I had a lot of fun with it. I'm not ever going to be as good as Phil is, but I held my own with the singing and the playing.....AT THE SAME TIME!!!!!!!!!!.
Ahem.
We've got kind of a big deal show coming up on the 21st that I'm hoping a lot of people can come for. We're doing an 89x Homeboys Show with Mike Shilakes and some others on Tuesday, August 21st. We have to sell 50 tickets, and they're only $5 each. If there's any way you can make it out here, do it. It's a really big deal for the band, and could lead to us getting some big shows in the future. Hopefully the sound will be run a little bit smoother than it was last time. Music starts and nine and should be done by one. I'm not sure what time we're playing yet. I'll post more details as I find out, but please try to get out here for this. It would mean a lot to me
I'm not going to be able to do school or marching band or anything like that this semester, because I won't be able to afford it. I've got two jobs now, and I'll need to be working at those so much that I won't have the time to go to class too. It's been a really hard relization to make.
My only other solution is to find someone I can beg to be a co-signer on a loan with me. $6500 would get me through both semesters, counting school, rent, utilities, and maybe even getting a new laptop.
(I know I don't absolutely need a laptop Macbook again, but I did my best work while I had it. I got out of my place and did homework and studied and everything. It was an invaluable tool.)
I just need to get things turned around here. I don't think not going to school is the answer. Rededicating myself to what needs to be done is. Pursuing a degree that isn't music is what I need to do, and I need to take it serious. It sucks that I've put myself through a lot of shit to realize that, but I'm a stubborn idiot sometimes.
curvesandcurls7: i love the ladies, remember?
whatuhhh: that's what you say
whatuhhh: but not what you FEEL
curvesandcurls7: YOU DON'T KNOW ME YOU DON'T KNOW MY LIFE
whatuhhh: I KNOW YOU'RE NOT GAY
curvesandcurls7: lol fiiiiiiiiiiine.
curvesandcurls7: but if i was, i'd love the ladies
whatuhhh: clearly
Mary sent me the rest of the things I had over at her house, along with two letters, one from before and one from recently. I responded back to her on the AIM last night, and she responded back and told me to never talk to her again.
Jackie is engaged.
Ang has been in Chicago for Lollapalooza (sp???? jew jew bees???) since forever, and she's not going to be back until forever. We manage to text sometimes, but it's really not enough. It's odd that she's so far away, but it isn't like I can just go see her whenever anyways.
I'll refrain from posting it again, but if you missed the song we recorded together, check out my YouTube thing in my last post. Comments and constructive criticism are always appreciated.
I was out of minutes last month on the 20th. I went over by one hundred and fifty one minutes. My cellphone bill is therefore double what it would otherwise be. Not pleased.
