so i played drums for worship for the first edge of the year last saturday. it was pretty dope. courtesy of derek's meinl cymbal/zildjian. (22"heavy ride)/(16"zhtcrash??)
i also tracked a simple drum track for tristan's new worship song yesterday.

i didnt go to school yesterday 'cause around friday nightish..to saturday, i got sick. yeah it felt pretty weird playing drums while sick.
though im doing pretty good right now.

i need to find a place to get a haircut asap.

oh, and these "boba fett" dunks came out..theyre looking pretty fresh. first thing to cop once i find another job.

alotta homework today. yay for continuing my promise

to hell and back

yo
new blessthefall song is dope as frick. definitely looking forward to their next album. beau is magnificent.

i had homework for the first time this week today. and it was just a chart. i found it fun actually. and..the other was to color something.

edge is in one more day. im always so stoked to play worship. i think ive got every song down to a science. i always used to get so nervous when playing drums. especially when there are other drummers in the crowd. but this time i wont. fasho..

i think i half failed to complete this weeks to do list. i still have two more thins to do. hopefully i can finish them tomorrow??..

okay. starting the next blog, i gotta start putting photos along with each one. got to.

oh and i didnt keep my promise about no boba..i just had some.

good god, how can we still get home

no homework again. but tomorrow for sure. cause it's due friday..
assembly schedule tomorrow! so all the juniors have to wear green..hmph
still though, this week is going by quick. once again.

im excited for youth group this saturday..especially worship! wooo..
i'll try my best.

so boba time's happy hour is awesome. you buy one, and get any free flavored milk tea. okay nicko..no more boba after tonight.

drumming is messing with my..arms and hands.

*and you will keep each other warm
But tonight I am feeling cold.

xxhapaboixx (9:23:08 PM): i said i think when people are overly nice..
xxhapaboixx (9:23:15 PM): its cuz they dont want to hurt anyone...
xxhapaboixx (9:23:19 PM): so they hide stuff
xxhapaboixx (9:23:21 PM): cuz theyre scared
xxhapaboixx (9:23:29 PM): and theyre faking so they dont have to be real
xxhapaboixx (9:23:33 PM): cuz real/reality hurts
xxhapaboixx (9:23:42 PM): and so youre not really yourself afterall.
xxhapaboixx (9:23:47 PM): and youre manipulating people..
xxhapaboixx (9:23:50 PM): by not being real
xxhapaboixx (9:23:56 PM): no one really wants to be stepped on..
xxhapaboixx (9:24:28 PM): but nice guys let it happen and just hide their real feelings/self. they want to break out their shell, but they cant cuz theyre scared of not having everyone like/accept them.

"so you say you're alone"
there's alotta stuff for me. it's all about maintaining

the lost ask for a hand

but I can’t stop, I never stop

I’ve been losing my footing here

my weekend wasnt too bad. it was my mommy's birthday
i still enjoyed a rest from school.
played worship at church sunday. that was dope..first time in a while.

1st and 2nd period are such boring periods..but once they're over, i'm pretty done.
and I still don't complete ALL of my homework. fick homework.
i slept at 12 last night..thats progress

oh btw..dont ever wear sunglasses if theres no sun around.

everything in your darkest thoughts about me might be true

I hear the words you say, I still feel nothing

I put my voice out there for you to hear

but the words never made much sense to you

the created void

let me take you somewhere I cannot explain
I wanna take you somewhere I cannot explain

second day of school. same thing. same routine. today was an early day. so classes were short, and got out early!!!!
still bumpin underOATH. not gonna let go of this album for a while.

so today i finally paid attention in U.S. history..and my teacher is interesting. i like her style.
well i was interested.

they will never understand what eats at our insides /

normal is not so / normal is not so far.

it's all in my head, if you want you can look inside /
there's nothing but red and all the mess I've been.

we are the involuntary

brian wada, youre frickin awesome d00d.
youre just adding to the motivation ive been getting with guitar.
me and him gotta have a guitar session for sure.
i finally have someone i can teach all im learning to.

so first day of school was not bad. after lunch, the mostly hard classes are over. cause then i have animation, theater, and english with mrs. b. shes soo dope. i think she deserves my effort. haha.

afterschool, litsos was waiting on the desk. and..gosh i love it.
i'm practically obsessed with it.
and then ate at the chipotle by my place with my lil bro. its sucha walkable distance..so convenient.

there's a calling ahead. A desperation.
[we are all lost in the sound of separation]

until tomorrow.

first day of school tomorrow. let's do it d00000d.

today i woke up, and my brothers were going out to lunch. so i hopped along. souplantation looks half good. but eh i hardly eat there anymore. eric and i spent time hanging out again. he's inspiring me to start like visual art again. iono

school makes stuff fun in a sense. its like youre counting down for the weekend..but you wouldnt be counting down if school was in the way. so it like creates a block or something..knowm sayin

underOATH still holds the bar for best band ever. period. their album hits stores tomorrow.

this is defeat

church today was dope. i was asked to play drums on the last minute with marques. it was dope. i did fine for a fill-in.
spent time with eric after. he's a coo kat.

i took a nap, and then like woke up and my brothers and zane were heading out to the movies to see "the rocker". i hate that word so much. but yeah i wanted popcorn. and the movie wasnt as bad as i thought it would be. movies are getting better these days.

now i'm here back listenin to underOATH. you have no idea. theyre seriously musical geniuses. yeah you wouldnt know haha.


*remember that you loved this night. and that you're gonna love the next 2-4 months.
