Communications

I decided to major in Communications with a minor in music theory. Im still gonna teach probably, but I'll be teaching speech and debate instead of music. And who knows maybe I'll still end up teaching music one day.

Me, and both Travis' are gonna practice today. I hope we sound good for bruce jam. Its the 4th time I've been in it and we get better every time. We actualy have a full band and a great time slot. So lets up for the best.

I hope Brittnay feels better eventualy. She seems really sick and cant sleep cuz of her roommate. I went to draw a picture on her board last night as a get well soon type of surprise, but she was sitting out side on the phone when I got up there. But since she lives on the 4th floor and I didn't feel like walking back up there later. I went a head and did it anywayz with her sitting there. I must say it was a good piece of work for only having 4 colors to work with.

I seem to be hanging around the lobby alot the past few days. Maybe thats because I know I dont have to practice nearly as much as I use to. Mr. Ford said I only have to play my jury peices and not my barriers, so thats freakin awesome. Ive actualy started talking to Desi too. She even walked me to my room last night. Its kinda good to be able to talk to her again and not have to have the akwardness of it all. I know what some of my guy friends are thinking, "oh shit...what the hell is going on?" Dont worry, Im not trying to get back with her, Im just tired of this not speaking thing. If shes gonna hang around here and if my friends are her friends, well we might as well learn to live with each other at least.

Its been fun....

Well, I got fired today from working desk. Turns out those RAs who use to find me half way awake eventualy ratted me out. I knew it might happen, but man it really sucks. And wouldn't you know, they couldn't wait untill after thanksgiving so i could make as much money as i could. FUCK!!!! As if my life wasn't hard enough all ready, now I dont even get to have a job on campus. How the hell am I suppose to support my self or my family with no job? This couldn't have happend at a worse time. Im changing my major, im already saying goodbye to so many friends in the music program... man this is a rough year.

Ive only got 2 good things to look forward to now, band banquet and getting the fuck outta here.

A new major??

Ive been thinking for a while now about changing my major. Right now Im music education, but i dont know if this is for me anymore. I just cant take music being forced upon me. Even if it was for something like teaching, It would still feel pushed onto me. I know I want to do something with music, but im not sure what. I know i could finish with my music ed degree, but do i want to go through 5 years of college only to burn out later on after ive got a job teaching somewhere? I dont know, ill finish this semester out and then talk it over with my advisor and family and friends and see what happens.

If you have any idea what you think I should do, or just an idea on how to decide what i should do, please post a comment.

Oh yea, check out my new picture. For those of you who dont know what it is, its the Metallica ninja star. Rock on

Jammin like a good band should.....

Today me, travis, brandon, and his little brother who is also named Travis jammed for like 3 hours today in my room. It ruled :) We taught them the pixies-where is my mind and they taught us some weezer. It was totaly cool. I hadn't jammed iwith a bass player in like 6 years so it was really sweet. Didn't do much other than that today. I didn't even wake up untill 2:20pm and they all got here at 3.

My mom also came up while we were playing and we played the song Stacy's Mom for her. She said it was an "interesting song." She said we sounded pretty good considering it was our first time playing together. She also brought me some coats so now i wont be so freaking cold all the time. Unfortunitly my favorite coat got chewed on by our dog a little so the cuff on one of the sleeves is messed up a bit. But its still worth keeping. Ok, well, im off to watch some movies or something. Stay cool my peeps.
