| August 11, 2002 The Tool concert last night was great, and Karl and Eric were great companions :) Happy birthday, again, Eric! My ears are still ringing, but it was worth it--my second concert, and my first ever rock concert! Go me! Lately I have been busy writing songs, but since it is so hard to use this computer (I am on my parents') I can't put them up as often as I would like--sorry. I have created album art for my albums, but they are still rather rough looking. For that stuff, I think the most important part is that I get my nerves up so that 1) I can play in front of my band 8P and 2) I can play in front of other people for performing. I have the worst case of stage fright when it comes to singing. The violin isn't as bad, but some of you know how bad I am with that, so I think that is saying something, and it isn't something good. <sighs> I am hoping by winter break I can do something about it, but we shall see. It makes me feel sick just to think about really playing in front of people. But I really really really want to do it. I just need more confidence. Other stuff going on is that my job is winding down. They want me to stay during the school year, but obviously I can't. I am happy because Suhaila is coming home, so maybe I can do some stuff with her. Also, next weekend I get to pay a visit to my "sister." I can't wait, because I miss talking to her in person. It would have been nice to have had her near this past month--it hasn't been too good. Ah well, right now I have the house to myself, so I am going to go work on my songs :) but feel free to check out my songs and all, since I was able to add some more. |

| August 28, 2002 Happy Belated Birthday to Sarah! Other random stuff is that school is starting up again soon, so that means more updates, but less song updates--sorry! I can't wait for my broadband connection back, but I will miss things like my family, my cats, my mattress, free time, songwriting time, being able to blast annoying music ;) , and other stuff like that. I almost had a new guy possibly, but of course he turns out to be stupid in some way. <sighs> Maybe I should switch away from guys for a while, and concentrate on my true love: math! Haha. Anyway, yeah. Guys suck at times. And not in a good way. I will miss my job this summer since some of the volunteers aren't coming back, and they are so cute! So many of them want me to get a boyfriend--it's ridiculous. They think I should just be able to ask a guy, and that he will go out with me. They are so naive. They think I could ask a guy I hardly know to go do "stuff." I don't think they even know what "stuff" is :) I tried to open their minds some with different issues like homosexuality and race---and of course math ;) I couldn't resist! I have bought so many cds this summer--John Mayer, Michelle Branch, Avril Lavigne, Phantom Planet, Tool, Dixie Chicks, The Vines . . . and then dvds--I got LOTR and Moulin Rouge. I guess it makes up for a year of not really buying many. Usually I buy so many cds, but then I stopped because I can download at school. Well . .. I have nothing else I want to say, except, here Karl, I updated ;) |
