Season of Love
Well good golly it seems like everyone is finding love right now. Guess spring came a little early huh?
I could take the easy road and be bitter. I would be lying if I said it wasn’t a bit true. Especially because my ex is already in another relationship. But that’s neither here nor there. I don’t talk to her anymore so I’ll move on in time from that whole thing.
It...

what is your sign and do you think it fits you?
I am a taurus. Here is a short description of a taurus:
Patient and reliable
Warmhearted and loving
Persistent and determined
Placid and security loving
Jealous and possessive
Resentful and inflexible
Self-indulgent and greedy
I’d say that’s pretty much me. I’m working on becoming less jealous, resentful...

Where do you see yourself in 2 years?
Graduated, hopefully at the same job or better, maybe in a relationship (if I’m ready for one, which based on how much I’m enjoying being single lately I’m not sure), I might still be living at the house, having great friends, good times, and hopefully planning to take my trip abroad.

I sit in the lobby of a place I’ve been many times before. It’s entirely different. I drive the same car. I’ve lived in the same place for nearly a year. I have most of the same friends. But it’s different.
Things will get better. Because this time there is patience and understanding. There is a promise to live day by day while also maintaining long term goals.
Reignite artistic flames....

Why do you share every detail of your life, particularly shameful moments and your insecurity, with the general public through internet media?
I have nothing to hide really. I am an honest person and I feel like the people who like me despite all the truth that is out there are people who really like me for who I am. I wish people in general would be more honest.
I’ve...

Behind Walls
Why don’t roses bloom in winter
Or snow fall in the desert?
Why do we become sheep
and listen to the Shepard?
We follow rules
regulations of understanding.
Left to consequence of choices
and hope to be withstanding.
Free will is limited
always cautious and caged.
We do what’s permitted
sometimes we falter and sway.
We build walls around ourselves
spend our lives breaking...

What are your thoughts on fate?
Fate is interesting. I’m not a religious person so I don’t believe in anything predetermined. But I do believe things happen for a reason, and that is based entirely on how you respond to something. When bad things happen I think they are meant to be learning experiences, and if those bad things repeat it is because you didn’t...

WHY YOU A F**CK’N BRINNER HATER?
I LOVE Brinner. Maybe the greatest thing since sandwiches. What I don’t like is when people think cereal and warm milk is brinner. That is NOT Brinner. Brinner is legit eggs, bacon, pancakes, waffles, hash browns, sausage and stuff like that for Dinner. Cereal is a universal meal and therefore can not be considered Brinner!

you’ve never been to chicago? do you want to go there?
Absolutely! Though there are many places I want to go. I definitely want to see most of the U.S, but I really want to go to Sydney, Australia and Madrid, Spain.

I’m exhausted.
Valentine’s Day was fine. I found out that giving things to other people and spending time with friends is more enjoyable than actually receiving anything. I don’t feel alone, but I feel like I’m on my own. I’m fine with that.
I really want to start my job. I’m doing all the paperwork tomorrow but I probably won’t start until a week from...

If you were a solo artist getting ready to release your first albm what song[s] would you cover?
The covers I know right now are “Fire” by Augustana and “The Gambler” by fun. I love those two songs and oddly enough they are both piano songs that I translated to acoustic guitar. The funny thing is I might be recording some songs soon and one of those two might be on the EP I...

What is your style artistically?
I have this rule that I live by, “Don’t make a career out of my hobbies” It applies well to me and by no means does it apply to others. I love to write lyrics, blogs, poems, and music. I love to act and sing and play guitar.
The thing is, I do those things when the feeling comes. I feel like if I had to make money off my art...

What do you think is the worst thing about yourself and what are you doing to change it?
I have anger/insecurity issues. I have a hard time being alone and staying patient with things. Most of my problems in life have come from these things.
I have taken care of my anger issues finally by simply not allowing myself to get angry.
I am getting much more confident and secure, ...

have you ever beeni n love?
I can definitely say yes. It’s the most amazing, difficult, and painful thing in the world. You can lose yourself in the person you love, you can become someone you don’t even know. But at the core, when everything else is healthy and both parties are secure and happy, love is the greatest thing in the world.
But I am very cautious now,...

do you know what me and most people record modern pop music on these days? not tape machines, like the days of yore, but computers. computers loaded with a software called ProTools. this software can make your music do things that you can not humanly compete with. with tape,...

Any new music that you’d recommend, sir? Secondary question: Are we still on for Bamboozle?
I’ve been on an indie/instrumental/soft rock kick lately. I already posted a Regina Spektor song on my blog, but I’ve also been into Sufjan Stevens, Explosions in the Sky, Belle and Sebastian, Wilco, Rooney, Mogwai, Elliot Smith, and The Album Leaf. Also This Providence,...

Reflections from a Jury Assembly Room
Quick hits:
Do I have time to get quarters from my car before they call my name? I really want a soda.
These chairs make my back itchy.
Keeping 90+ people in a room doing nothing doesn’t seem very productive.
I’ve seen a few good-looking female lawyer birds. Maybe the TV depiction of them isn’t completely far-fetched.
Jury duty is the best way to see the melting pot that this country is… At...

I haven't figured myself out.
And I’m not going to by the time I finish writing this or by tomorrow morning.
I can say that things will get better and I will continue to try to find balance. The secret for me is to say yes.
Do you ever write music anymore?
“Yes I do. In fact, we should collaborate.”
Are you working out again?
“I went for a run tonight, let’s make the upstairs room into a gym....

What is missing in your life?
I’m sure the answer will be different if you ask me another day, but I guess what I’m missing right now is a sense of purpose. I’m going to work, I’m going to find a way to graduate, but I don’t know what my ultimate goal is. I know I want a family, but that is far away. I’m missing adventure and excitement, and...

if you met a person who was exactly like you, would you like them?
I don’t think so. I am a very competitive person and I value my individuality. I take pride in being different from other people. Someone like me would get jealous of this and we would likely clash. I’ve dated people who are very similar to me and it can be an issue.

The New Plan
I have a headache. No, not from trying to figure things out. I went out drinking tonight with some friends. It was her 21st birthday and me and Eric ended up meeting them at dinner on a whim. I think I needed this.
Things are starting to work themselves out. It looks like I may have a job. I’m going back to Blue Shield of CA though. I guess third time really is the charm! Yes, I have to...
LOST opening credits (1967) →
Hilarious opening credits for the hit show LOST had the show started in 1967. I think everyone can appreciate the humor in how much the style has changed in TV shows.

A poignant and somewhat disturbing story. Very interesting though, worth a read.
