  • fuuuuck...

    i'm so frustrated with everything. absolutely everything except for breathing. that's the only thing that i can go back to that doesn't disappoint me. i feel depressed when i spend money. i feel depressed when i bathe. i feel depressed when i eat. i feel pointless when i try to write/play music.

    i feel depressed when i wake up.

    i really need a break, but with school and a huge festival for my band to play in, there doesn't seem to be any sign of one of those. i guess life's really all about how well you can take bullshit and how long it takes for you to get over it.

  • the cycle continues...

    I asked Logan if he's ever had a point where he just wasn't satisfied with anything he wrote.
    "Oh hell yea, man! I fuckin' hate when that happens. I'll write like 5 songs in 2 days and just throw them all away." or something like that.
    I felt a little better then, but I realized I've been on this block for a lot longer than 2 days. More like 2 months, actually.
    I know this is my passion, but I'm worrying that it's something I won't be able to improve. When a "good idea" hits me, I write it down, then sing it. Then it turns into a horrible idea, so I throw it away. And the cycle continues.

    On the bright side, my band got accepted to play the National Rock Summit in Pensacola, FL. I'm pretty excited, but I know that we're not ready to play it at all. There is so much work between now and then. Pray for us, please.

    I want to have a way with words. Does it come naturally, or is it something you have to work with? I'm worried that it's the former.

    I'm hoping this works out, but I know how this goes. I hope I'm wrong.

  • I am aware now

    Looks like I'm back into the routine of waking up early for no reason. It's nice though. I think I've always been a morning person without really knowing it.

    Why don't I feel like an artist? That's what I've always seen myself as, but I'm sure I'm just as artistic as the next person. I'm sure I am. Artists are able to easily express what they feel. Not me. That's the hardest part for me.

  • Too scared to take a chance

    The past few days have been pretty stale:

    wake up
    take a shower
    read for 3 hours
    write a song
    talk to friends
    scrap said song
    go to sleep


    Point being, I hate summer reading, and I hate the fact that I can't express myself as well as Conor Oberst or Aaron Weiss.

    I've got my eyes on the prize, and she's beautiful.

    Senior year is less than a month away. I'm still not sure if my excitement for this exists. Everyone else seems to be anxious, but I'm just ready to get it all over with. That way, I'm one year closer to Belmont(awesomenessss).
