Crying Wolf…

15 12 2008

As usual, i have to push the reviews back a bit…its finals week…however, there shall be multiples! Expect one for the FOB recored, the most recent TV on the Radio album, and Silent Alarm from Bloc Party back in 04. It’s quickly rising to my list of all time favorites, quite a feat for any band.

In other news, the first two days of my new life have been pretty rocky, but decidedly better. Good better. I’ve tried out the new attitude with everyone, and so far so good. School tomorrow is the real test…if I can go through a day without, well, making a complete ass of myself. I’m also going to try talking with people that I had sworn not to…we’ll see how that goes. Damn this Bloc Party album is good, btw. Next time I pass Borders I have got to pick it up in plastic, it’s worth even that…

Wow…women. I have yet to figure them out. At all. Just when I think I’m close…BAM. SIKE!!!!!!!!. I’m further than ever. Ask me if you want to know about why I say that…

Hmm..what else today…My churches so called “second” (worship) service is headed down the tubes…there is lots of talk of giving it the axe. Which means no more worship band for me, and no more reason to keep driving to Brook for church. At least thats how some would see it. I’m not sure. I love the people there, and I have many friends, so maybe I’ll get lucky, and that part of my life wont die off. On a different note, I’m am so stoked to be in the Diary right now…It seems like the right band to be in at the right time. I think there is so much we can do with it. I can’t wait till the heavy writing starts during break.

I need to pack it up for the night, I think Dad is catching on to the keystrokes…roftercoper…haha.

Here’s to good times with friends-Bottoms up!

Much love,

–Ander, Slickwilly, Flip Jones, DJ Fad, WilBob, Synthy McTricky Hands, Wilhelm, and all my other nicknames past and present…





The New Creed

14 12 2008

Awaken each day to your first.
Talk with those you encounter with the attitude of making your first impression, even if you have known them for a lifetime.
Don’t be bitter, be forgiving.
Don’t be spiteful, be spiritual.
Love all, hate none.
Never underestimate yourself.
Trust God. Help those in need.





Popped out…

14 12 2008

listening to the new Fall Out Boy album…The track that on right now “What a Catch, Donnie” is the best version of Hey Jude never recorded. Review coming later tonight/tomorrow. Don’t hold me to it. It is finals week after all.





Closing time…

13 12 2008

Ya know, I’ve had a lot of time to think lately. About everything. I ever did. And I think most of it’s pretty ok.

My birthday, until today,  was August 31. No big, just like another day.

I have a new one. December 13th. Saturday,  December 13th, 2008. Birthday=new. Why? I am losing my mind? Nope. I went out with friends tonight and realized, just putzing around as drury high school me doesn’t (PMF) fucking cut in anymore. I want a new life. And according to God, I’m allowed to get one.  Even when I feel farthest from God, he’s watching. Like some sort of stalker-hawk. A stahawk if you will. And for some people it sucks, becasue they can never “get away” with anything. But that’s just it. “Getting away” with (PMF) shit is an oxymoron. No such thing. HE sees all. Knows all.Ouch.

From midnight tonight onward, that’s a good ouch. I’m slowly breaking through the crap in my life, and I saw the light.

Here’s to breaking through

–Bottoms Up

I sincerly hope that whoever reads this will find their life as blessed as my has been, and will be.

Love
