And You Can Speak Your Mind...

Jim - ZZZzzzZZZzzz....
The Voice - OKAY!!!!!!... It's time for a REAL post... Jim... Jim?... JIM!
Jim - WHAT?!?!... HUH?!?... oh... hey..
The Voice - I was saying, It's time for a real post...
Jim - ...aww... Come on... I've been busy... and you know I have no life outside of school.
The Voice - true true, you don't have a life but you need to say SOMETHING!... people probably think you're dead!
Jim - Oh, alright...

::clears throat::... WELL!!... It's been awhile. TO be honest... I've been wanting to post something... but the combination of being lazy and nothing really going on in my life, I... well... haven't. Umm... Between working on my art, writing my poetry stuff (speaking of which, I got the Editor's Choice award in the compilation my poem is in), working on music (jazz, yo!) and reading books (rereads, school books, new reads, and music research for my on career as well as Chelsea's), I've found little time to do anything... Not that what I'm doing is nothing... but it's just... not fulfilling at times. But the book I'm reading on the music industry entitled, aptly, The Music Business, is very interesting... It covers MANY MANY things about being a professional musician form college to contracts to composition and record producing to distribution and sales of records... An amazing book by Dick Weissman - professional musician, recording artist, composer, and record producer.

I get my license in a little bit... my B-day was in Feb. But I waited awhile before I got my permit... so I'm ready for that... Or am I?... well... I'll finally will be able to stay after school for science club! WHOO!... and whatever else calls my attention... I don't think I'm gonna drive myself to performances though... with the stress factor, I don't know if I'll trust myself on the road then... but now I can pick up Colleen whenever she wants to go somewhere... cool beans...

Mrs. Myers said to email her sometime next week about my voice lessons...

OH!... you guys HAVE to get the Franz Ferdinand Album... it's too much sweetness... I haven't uploaded it to my PC yet, so I can't let you hear any of it... but I am putting a new song... and the winner is...
"Sidewalks" by Story of the Year...a beautiful song.

I'd like to thank ... err... whoever it was that got me off my butt to write this entry an--
The Voice - No problem, man... It's my job, yo...
Jim - errr... yeah.. sooooooooo... I'll try not to be lazy and update again soon... until then , leave me a good note!

::Daily Lyrics:: - don't need you to worry for me cause I'm alright/ I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home/ I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life/ Go ahead with your own life, and leave me alone ~ "My Life" - Billy Joel
