update

That's right, three posts in one night. Feel like writing right now, but I'm sure by the time I get to the end of this I'll realize how little I actually have to write about and how uninteresting my existence is at this point in my life. Here it goes anyway; not a lot has happened lately, besides Scott's finally turning 19. Happy birthday mister. Really stoked on this month and the ridiculous amounts of sweet shows. To name a few:


  • Mcbain's first show at the Bad Cave this Saturday

  • Have Heart, Trapped Under Ice and Polar Bear Club

  • Bane, Cruel Hand and Forfeit

  • Converge, Ceremony, and Coliseum

To say the least I don't plan on having much money in the next couple of weeks. Also, for those of you who don't know Mcbain yet, this up and coming hardcore punk band consisting of four of my favourite boys (Mike, Scott, James, and Duff) has the most potential of any band I've seen come out of Milton. Normally I'm skeptical of anything musical coming out of this shitty little town, but I'm more than impressed at how good these guys are at song writing considering how short of a time they've been playing together. For those who like fast, raw riffs with no bull shit and all rage, I don't think you'll be disappointed with this band. Either way, if anyone's reading this you should come check them out this weekend, as well as all the other unreal bands playing.

Other than constant work, a whole lot of nothing has been happening in my life. My U of T audition is in two weeks and I'm stressing pretty hard on that. I went over the list of all the requirements to get in and I'm definatelty no where near being ready as far as my theory and general music knowledge goes. I'm riding on my songs basically, which is less than comforting considering I will have never played with my accompanist when I go in, and I've had a huge lack of practice the past couple of weeks. Hoping for the best, cause I really need to get in...

Still cutting back my partying as much as possible at least until my audition or till I've paid my mom back the $1500 I owe her and my grandpa, not stoked, so I don't have any ridiculous stories, besides another night at the bar with no money and still managing to get 5 drinks, and a sloppy night with the crew last night.

I've been pretty stoked on learning lately (also in serious need of finding a word to replace stoked). A year off really makes you miss school in the sense of always learning something knew. I feel so ignorant to current events and life in general lately and I'm starting up my reading again as much as possible. I can't wait for school next year, or at least a structured life. Any time I ever get to myself now is usually spent on sleeping or being lazy, I don't feel like doing much else when I work at 6:30 am then have to practice for the rest of the day.

k fuck seriously, I'm ending this blog now. I was right, useless post #245. I'm seriously the least exciting person right now. It'd rule if I had art or something sweet to post, or didn't write every time I was in a blah mood. If you're even reading this, you're fucked. I wouldn't even read this. I'm gonna go make pasta and watch fight club all night.
