So here we are...

It's after xmas, and what a time it is... I can go back to not having to worry about presents and crap. I have off school until the 23rd of January. All in all, this is a good time for me.

I just put together a drum sequence for a song I hope to start recording tonight. Depends on my schedule... I don't think I have much going on, but we will see. The drum sequencing is a pain in the ass. Basic beats are easy, but some of the more intricate fills are tough. So when I do post this song, the actual recorded/finished version of it will be a little different. And that's okay. For now, I'm just trying to get things going with this. I'm not rushing anything, I'm taking my time, I'm not giving myself any unreal expectations... 2 songs is my goal by the time school starts again. Shouldn't be too hard. But we'll see...

As for life in general, I'm in kind of a lull. This happens after school lets out. I get so busy and inundated with school projects and studying, that the sudden and abrupt stop to that leaves me a little disoriented. Not a big deal by any means, but I'm in a small funk these days. I'm sure the Arrested Development Season 2 DVD I got will help with that, ;-). I also got many gift cards to go shopping with, and hopefully that will ALSO add to my getting out of a funk.

In other news, I got my school schedule all worked out. I think I have enough classes and credits to be able to graduate in Spring of 2007. It's going to be a lot of work, but better to finish at age 27 than age 30. I met with the guy, who collects REALLY cool typeface drawers, and went through my work, got out of some classes and came up with a game plan for the rest of my college career. Fun times (not ever), but it's coming along, and I feel a little better seeing a light at the end of the tunnel.

OH, and I got straight A's for the second semester in a row... OH YEA!

I also finished a couple of other things. Namely, my sisters wedding photos and wedding DVD. I picked it up at the Apple Store in Schaumburg from my good friend David. While I was there, I saw someone from a band that I really like that recently reunited, but I won't say who it is... I'm not a hollywood tabloid here, people! I also saw a child no older than 2 1/2 playing with a round seat thing like a ball for about 20 minutes, until David came out from the back and made a REALLY funny agitated face like "What? Why are you doing this and why are your parents letting you?"

I'm back to working out and back to making music people - stay informed, and I'll see you on the flipside...
