had another early morning this morning. ouch time. had a bible study at 7am at Megs. its was good.
headed over to my 8am class after that and took a psych. test. it went well. i think......
after that i headed over to church and practiced drums for a while. then i went home and made mac&cheese for lunch and just kinda spaced out till i had to go to choir and be the dominating male tenor. as i always am.
then i went to work. after work i went home, changed and then went to church again to make a video of me playing drums for this drum thing i am auditioning for. it went really well. right quick. after that me and
brianwhitechocolatepaultrishdanjordan went to old chicago and got pizza. i ate tow pieces and felt like i was going to throw up so i pitched in my cash and left. came home..edited the video...then wrote the blog.
i decided that for weekends what i will do is write one for friday night and then write one sunday night for both sat. and sunday. we will see how that goes. take luck.

today i would definately designate as "one of those days." I shall elaborate.
Woke up to my brand new alarm clock (which did happen to be VERY loud) promptly at 6am.
hopped into the shower. did the moring stuff. Then went to my 7:30am vocal test for my ear training class.
pick a number one through That sucked. first of all, its really hard to sing anything at 7:30am. and its really hard to think about and sing complicated music charts you have nver seen before at 7:30am. After that i went home and woke up nate (friend who lives with our family temporarily) and we team-mowed the lawn.
yeah we knocked that baby down in like 40 minutes. (which is really good if you have ever seen my lawn)
after that i went inside and finished up two essays i had to turn in today for english. i got those done and flew out the door to school. went to my music theory class and took a writen test that turned out to be easier than i though. then went to english and turned in the essays. after that i went to statistics and bomed my test in that.
i swear he translated the test into klingon--and i only know how to say one thing in klingon and that is
"ghay'cha! nachwljdaq betleh tu'lu'!" translated--"oh my god! there is an axe in my head!!"
Being that the test was on statistics, not things to say when you have an axe in your head, i didnt understand any of it. o-blah-di o-blah-da life goes on. right? so i left that monstrosity and went to arlington heights to buy a bunch of stuff at guitar center for me to use at my church....and i dont have to pay a dime for it. brilliant huh?
Paul redel and Brent graced me with their presence...which was nice. while i was there i found the coolest amp ever...the mesa boogie dual rectifier tremoverb. my new dream amp. some day maybe..
after that i made my way back to rockford rightquick and went to visitation for a close friend of my family's mothers death. not much to say about that. after that i went to Megs daily grind and hung out with paul for a while.
then about 8:30 i went to lone star steak house with Julie Speck for dinner.
now i am home and ready to end another day. another blog.

well today was no day out of the oridinary. I got up at aobut 7am. stumbled into the shower. stumbled back out of the shower and got dressed. stumbled to the white shadow. my steed. my turbo charged ride straight from 1991.
Drove to my 8am class and stumbled into CL1 on the beautiful campus of rock valley college. Went to psych. class. if you asked me right now what i learned today in that class the only thing i could tell you is that i am a darn good doodler...and what ever kind of pen i grabbed off the table in my kitchen was a really nice one. After that
waste of 50 minutes i left the building to find that the beautiful campus of rock valley college had gotten all wet with rain...and was continuing to become so. so i quickly walked across the bridge into the student center and played about 4 games of pool with john nieswander. he beat me 3 out of the 4 today. usualy i whoop up on him..but today was "ONE OF THOSE DAYS." we quoted halloween 3 (as we do every day)
"Shit Earl, that was Ted hallister from down the street. You son of a Bitch, we wanted Meyers"
its amazing how much funnier that gets everyday. After that i went to more classes..then how and eventually ended up at work. My boss Larry was in a bad mood at first but it got better as the day went on. After work i went to church. picked songs....led music....talked to people. After that was over i went to target and baught a new alarm clock that is supposed to be "extra loud." we will see..or hear i guess..now i sit here...avoiding my homework. like usual.typing my first blog.
