Porcelain.

Well tomorrow I am finally off "Lung Lockdown" as I like to call it.
Bittersweet though due to the fact I have an appointment with my Psychiatrist Dr. Hendren.
Whom I haven't been to in three years.
Btw if you forgot or are unaware I have a mild cause of Aspergers Syndrome. Which is a form of autism and I take madication for it.
I've been taking the same stuff for about five years and it works perfect and my body has come acustomed to it.
Unfortunately, it has side effects. These are always being Tired. (Which I always am) and Crappy memory. (Which I have). So I it's bittersweet but I'm okay with it.
Tomorrow I go in and we are going to "evaluate" me. Which alone freaks me out.
And then most likely change my medication which freaks me out alot. Cause that means a "switch" which includes getting off my current and getting on a new one. This usually involves fun stuff like withdrawls and freaking out body. Not excited at all.
And really really really apprehensive about it. Cause I have a hard enough time with missing two doseages (which is just one day. I take one in the morn and one at night)
So please pray it all goes smoothly.

God, I'm done with Doctors; first a tube and now this.
Hah, I think I'm good for the rest of 2009 on the whole doctor thing ya know?

Now for some great insomnia and moby to calm my thoughts.
Custom westone in-ears anyone?
Yes me please : ).

Well I'm chilling in my own bedroom.
Which is awesome considering I shouldn't've (can I do that gramatically? haha) gotton out of the hospital till tomorrow. But overnight my condition rapidly increased so I'm good. I feel great now. I think the therapy of being at home is the best cure to any problem.
Stupid lungs lol.

Anyways. No Christmas spoils to report cept Emmah's rad T-shirt which wasn't my size hahaha. But It'll still work. And I got an iHome from my bro in law and sis. Cept Yesterday my sister and mum lost my iTouch. FAIL.
So that's kindof.........ironic.
Anyways. I got my stocking full of candy, coffee, giftcard for coffee, really nice shampoo and conidtionair.

Yay. Christmas is going to be next Thursday (new years day) sense none of us shopped before my lung incedint. And we couldn't shop while I was in the hospital with "the tube" lol.

So yes, it's great to be home.

I'm going to be shopping for my three gifts this weekend too, wish me luck in finding my dad's should be a bit challenging.

On a side note, I've become intensely rusty and my electric guitar work. GAH, songs I could just dish out have become a bit hard. So I gotta work on that I bit. My jamming flow is bad.
At least I know I can just pick up my drumsticks or acoustic or bass and feel better about myself. But still, I gotta practice that sucker.
And I had to replace the A string and accidentally put an E string in its place.

oops.

I'm Scared.

Currently Listening:
Amsterdam
A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Basically I'm really scared right now.
I'm in such a helpless state.
I can't walk normal. I can't laugh. I can't even put pants on by myself.
And to top it off I'm hooked up to more wires than a power plant.
Am I really this fragile? Is life really this short? Just a few days ago I was laughing and dancing with some friends. I'm such a indepentant person who thinks I can get through so much on my own.
I rely so much on my own strength and thought.
Now I'm stuck to a chair and a bed smelling HORRID. With a pump sown from a white box into my chest. Keeping air from collapsing my lungs.
I'm so broken and scared right now......

Luckily I've recovered fast and I'm about to find out if the tube which was turned off this morning comes out or goes back on....

But really, I still seriously can't believe this is happening. I hate being in this position. It makes me cry.
It's so humbling and so good for me though.
Seriously I've learned such a big lesson through this and God's really taught me to lean on Him.
And to let others help.

That doesn't mean I'm not scared though. I have to many fobias of hospitals.
I hate them so much. They're just to much to handle for me. To much death to much fear to many needles and machines that bring you a false sense of life and hope. I don't think any of you understand how much I mean this phrase.

I just wanna go home....

Stood on the edge, tied to the noose
But you came along and you cut me loose.

Money Matters.

Currently Listening:
You're Fairer Than The Sons Of Man
John Thurlow
IHOP Streaming

So as of two days ago I had about 11 dollars to my name.

Unfortunately it's not March. It'd December so I was intenstely worried about making enough money for my friends and family's gifts.

On top of that I dropped my gutiar on the tile steps yesterday and that's going to cost me a bit too. And I have to repair it cause I was planning on selling next week to have my Gibson Acoustic by christmas.

This won't be happening.
But that's okay.

Anyways. I was really worried and last friday we had a guest speaker and a really good friend of mine come and speak at youth about his serving in cambodia. At the end they asked for an offering. I myself am very insecure about giving money in tithe and offering cause I know I barely make enough to get by and I litterally can't get a job. It's not me being lazy. I literally can't.

But I decided after a little prayer to give him the little I had.
Anyways the week went on and I happen to come across by surprise 15 dollars from extra gas money and thought that was cool. But I still was like "Well God I'm going to need about 200$ so I can actually give gifts to the people who bend over backwards to help and give to me".

I just got an email that I along with a few others will be blessed in the fact that I will be getting payed 50$ every weekend I play at my church. And I get a check for november. I am so overjoyed right now. I can't explain how happy I am right now in the fact that when I wake up on Christmas morning there will be a present for someone from me. Which I was seriously doubting.
And there was one other person I needed to give a gift too. And I can probably repair my guitar with decembers check. Thank God. I haven't got a legitimate paycheck from somebody in months.
And my previous job went under too. So I'm really glad God didn't leave me high and dry.

Anyways. I got the little semi formal youth dinner tomorrow night at church.
I'm pretty stoked I love dressing up. I always over due it a bit. But tomorrow night I think I'll actually stick with the semi formal-ish. Anyways, should be good. I wonder how our video turned out sense they had to almost completely re-edit it.

Anyways enough banter.

That will be all.

The Link

www.myspace.com/thetaylorfineprojects

listen to "The Simple Life".

Read my blog below to know why I posted this.

Please don't take these demo's to seriously by the way haha. I have horrible equipment and restricted time so I just try to make good music and have fun along the way.

Which in this one I did. haha I skatted : P.

But that's all I'll give away.

Recording Break.

Currently Listening:
The Simple Life
The Begining Demos
Taylor Fine

I'm recording my second demo right now called "The Simple Life"

It's kinda Jason Mraz-ish. I like it.

My fingers unfortunately don't, and after about six tries I decided to take a break.

Usually things go a lot smoother but this song is givin' me trouble. But that's good means it's creative.

I'm pretty sure I'll have it done today. I just have to record my Rythmn Acoustic, Lead Acoustic on Bridge (the only place there is a lead), Bass, and then lastly Vocals.

Should be a good song. I'm gunna add a tambourine to it tomorrow. I'm going to have my friend JT do it just cause he's radical and I promised him he'd always play tambourine on my songs haha.

Anyhoo, I'll post up the lyrics for you guys and then tomorrow a link to my music myspace to hear it.
It will be freely downloadable by the way. So here you go.

The Simple Life
By Taylor Fine
It seems that these days I’m lookin’ at the sky
And I wonder if at this speed, it’ll change from blue to white
Oh, everything’s just flyin past me
Whatever happened to the simple life
OH what ever happened to a simple life

(now just slow down and I’ll tell you what happened)

It all started when we were young
And all of are finger paintings began to become
Rembrandts from stick figures that caused us to laugh
Oh, our preschool chants became 32 piece orchestras with funny names, no, no, no nothin’s the same
Now I got nothin’ against growin up, I’ve got everything against trading in my cup
of orange juice for a glass of wine, oh I’m just Fine
The way I am, much to the dismay of uncle sam, I don’t drop the coin in the can
Oh, our playground fights about who’s lunch box is more outasight
Have turned into wars about politics, religion and oh my heart is sore
You say you’re so mature, you may have some facial hair but I am sure
That you never really grew up on the inside, Mr. High So high
Get off your throne, leave us common people alone, we hang up our phones
We don’t have to be involved in your hierarchy, so just go back to cutting down tree’s and pavin concrete over all our memories.
Our multiplyin’ two by two is now what does that hott blondie think about you, Oh she loves you, it’s true,
but don’t get all obsessed on all of that mess just calm down level out.
(Funk Instrumental Bridge)

It seems that these days I’m lookin’ at the sky
And I wonder if at this speed, it’ll change from blue to white
Oh, everything’s just flyin past me

I've Realized

Currently Listening:
Sunburn (Timo Maas Sunstroke Remix)
EP's
Muse

and the Albums "Play" and "Hotel" by Moby

That I love experimental/electronica music.

NOT Techno.
But remix kindof stuff. Ya know like Moby, or this RAD remix of a Sunburn by Muse I have.
Moby does do like rave stuff but at the same time he'll do an alt or a blues song or a easy electronica song. So it's really cool how diverse he is.

And since I'm picking up Piano for my music major I think I'm going to start doing my own stuff once I have a decent knowledge of chords and synth stuff.

I like it cause it's great just easy listening when you're driving or staying up late.

To bad my rents are still down stairs and keep ALL the lights on. I think it's time to sneak up to my room hehe.

I'll need to put on the strobe function on my iTouch too hahahaha mini bedroom RAVE.

I'm a music geek, but I'm okay with this.

I'm Just Fine

I don't care that much about shopping on Black Friday

I do care about the fact I'm seeing my best friend in 12 Days.
12 days............still so surreal to me.
Reality will probably kick in when I give her a hug when she gets here : ).

Now I go to sleep and wake up in a new day.

I just heard a solo made after 83' Talk, all is not lost.

If you're a musician you understand what I mean by this.


Pretty much amazing guitar solo's that "talked" for the player ceased to exist after stevie ray died and david gilmour played his last show with floyd, and when led zeppelin broke up.


Micheal knows what I mean.


But I just heard a solo made in 07' talk.

Makes me really happy.

I thought good music died when alternative pop cutlure controled music was born.


I was wrong it's alive.


Again if you're not a guitarist or one who respects guitar greatly you have no idea what I'm talking about.

But that's okay : D.


Anyways Thank you John Mayer.

yes I did just say John Mayer, check out his live solo on his new record "live in la" it's the solo on slow dancing in a burning room.
And no I never would've guessed it'd be that either


Haaaaapppyyy Taylor.

My Weekend Happenings (To Answer Emmah's Question)

Currently Listening:
The Great Gig In The Sky
The Dark Side Of The Moon
Pink Floyd

Well this weekend was a very eventful one. It was super rad.
Friday I finished up my application for the Uni in LA and finished the paper for it too.
Met up with my bud Kira at Coffee Republic and we chilled for a bit.

Then I popped in my car and went up to Beckye's for Fri-Sat birthday extravaganza!
I started driving at about 6:45 pm. So I'm on my way up to placerville which is like only a 45 minute drive. So it should be simple right?
Wrong.
I misunderstood Sarah's directions (*cough*herfault*cough*). And I take the wrong exit
I then begin to go and turn left like she says.
and I start driving........and driving..........and driving. Till it's a dark country road and there is NOTHING in sight. So I call her and found out I'm a little off course.
About thirty minutes worth.

So then I pop back on the free way and get there....about around 8 haha. So just an extra little jaunt there. I get there, we chillax have fun, beckye gets surprised. We then at about midnight put on Kate and Leopold. Which was a very good movie I liked it. We then went to bed at about 2:30 AM : D. Makes me happy.
Wake up at like 8 cause that family has people living with them and they are all very, very loud. haha. We then just take it easy that day. Go to Mels Diner for some food. and I drove home.
Sunday was chill too. I went to church, went to the new section of the mall, went out to starbucks with Lana, Rachel and the two Munzie boys. And then home.

Today I had a total stress attack and now I'm trying to calm down to Pink Floyd. I have so much on my mind and so much on my schedual it's ridiculous.
I need three things.

Boardshorts, Board, and Waves.
And I need them now.

But as for now, I'll just sit and wait till I
play That Great Gig In The Sky.


This blog is dedicated to Emmah Scott and her question of what I did this weekend.

You Have My Attention!

Currently Listening:
You Have My Attention
In Motion ("The Record With The Twig On It")
Copeland

I went to see one of my top favourite bands last night along with another big fav of mine at the boardwalk (local club/bar that has good gigs)

It opened with a random band I've never heard of (as all shows do) And they were okay.
But then Lovedrug came on and it was freakin' awesome. They did a good set, I got to talk with the guy afterwards and he's a cool dude.
Signed my friends shirt :P.

Copeland was the headliner and it was almost as if they asked me which songs to do. It was seriously almost all my personal favourites. They just didn't do California. But honestly that's okay haha.
All I have to say is when he hit "The Note" in You Have My Attention to kill the night it made waiting in a cold line outside worthwhile. So amazing, the boy's go lungs.
Made me want to go home and play music. To bad it was 1 Am and I had to wake up at 8:30 haha. But none the less a great day. I then went to Apple Hill today for some food and stuff with some friends. Saw Kristina by surprise when Iw as there so that was coolio. I got home and just now finished draft 2 of "the college paper". haha it's what I have to write for Masters, so I'm doing a good job on it.

But yeah that's the past 24 hours in a nutshell.
Go Copeland and Lovedrug.

beeteedub, Emmah's actually coming to America in less than a month. So rad, so rad.

Humanity and A Taylor Fine Update

Currently Listening:
I Will Posess Your Heart
Narrow Stairs
Death Cab For Cutie


I would have to say last night in retrospect was a good night.
Even though I don't think socialism is the best thing for America I have to say that I am proud of the fact the President is African American.

I mean take this into serious thought not just stereotypes.

If this man lived fifty years ago he couldn't even wash his laundry, ride a bus, or watch a movie unless it was specified "black ..." and now he is president.
ON top of that if you think it was only 70-80 years ago the Ku Klux Klan numbered at 6,000,000. And blacks and their friends were dying on burning crosses.

I am not proud to say there is a intensely far right democrat in office but I am proud to say that there is a black man in office.
Dr. King can we begin to sing "That old negro spiritual, free at last, free at last, thank God almighty we are free at last" now?

We will see what the next four years has in store. I am apprehensive about it not gunna lie.

Anyhoo, I'm enjoying beautiful cloudly chipper weather with a nice hot cup of tea with honey infront of Peets and am about to have my mtg. with my CT for my school. Turns out to get into the Uni I'm going to next year I have to have a more advanced version of Algerbra 2 done. When I heard this I was like GUTTED haha. Math is the root of all evil, not money :P. But ah well life goes on. I just gotta make it one more month and I'll have a nice break to relax and chill. So it's all gouda. I still can't believe I'm moving to a Uni next year. So ridiculous, I have to choose my major specifications too. I think I'm going to do worship leading and teaching music (as a college professor NOT high school haha). I might decide to add al ittle recording ont he side too.

Welp my CT is here time for lunch : D. Mmm organic goodness.

Long, long, very long weekend

Currently Listening:
Beautiful
Cannons
Phil Wickham

Friday was Holloween so I went to a mates house and he had a little dance-shin-dig.

let's just say some people should not dance, and some people should work on their costumes.
as in not wearing women's clothes (tacky women's clothing at that)

geh, just wrong.

anyways. I got to wake up at six on Saturday and took the test, then I had my bud Aaron's 16th surprise birthday party. Which was freakin rad, so fun. A jamming/wrestling/eating/chilling extravaganza. Then we went to his show to support him haha.

Went to bed at about 1, but found out the clock went back so I got an "extra" hour of sleep haha. Woke up at six AGAIN for worship.
7-3 lot's of music. I swear I can still hear the click track in my head.
130 bpm 
do do do do do do do do
throbbing in my head perfectly on tempo haha. Feels good to be back.

and of course to kill the weekend I chilled with masonic for the noon' always a good time.

Btw we did one of my top three worship songs ever written today. Look up Beautiful by Phil Wickham.
It's simply astounding. I remember when I first heard it at IHOP's ATC one night. I seriously can't express how much the fourth verse of that songs means to me. [which of course is the crescendo of the entire song : )]

Now for another week, gah I have the midterm and loads of hw this week too.
Ah well Thanksgiving break will come soon : ).

I just want it to be December, no school, amazing weather, Emmah gets her little booty in the us of a finally, and Chris and Lauryn are gunna be here all that month.

I woke up to a car accident.

My neighbor backed into my front right fender,

First off this was not my fault. I was parked right in front of my house 8 inches from the curb, nice and legally.
So yeah, it went like this

Taylor's Mum: "Taylor, You up?"
Taylor In Bed Sleeping: "yeeaaahhh"
Taylor's Mum: Well the neighbor backed into your car, it got hit.

Taylor In Bed Sleeping: "mmmmmmmk, thanks"

*Taylor depressed stays in bed cause he went to sleep at 2 AM and thinks he's still dreaming*
*Taylor goes to shower*
*Taylor goes outside to make sure it was just a dream*

Taylor sees Nice fatty cantelope size indentation with plenty o' white paint scratches and paint chips.


For those of you who knew I got in a car accident my first week of driving I'm guessing you're thinking this too.

You suuuccckkkk Buddha.


to make it better my mum is freaking out in the other room on the phone saying we're going to become a socialist country. Some people just need to take a politik break. geeehhh it bugs me I need headphones.

La Breakdown.

So pretty much LA was radical, I wish I was still there. But as we all know there is this thing called school and this other thing called a calender.

GEH. It's just another manic monday. hehe.

Anyways here's the dilly-bo-nilly on what went down in la.

Got there wed night and went right to bed, it was 11 pm haha.
Thursday we went to ventura beach and chilled down there and went into town to check out shops and I got a rad shirt with a dove on it. I found out the day after that it was a band shirt and the dudes name was in smallish print on the side. I have yet to listen to it lol.
We then went home and watched the office. I didn't like this weeks episode. Didn't make me laugh to much and I just didn't fancy it. Not super good script writing.
Friday I went to Masters Uni and checked it out.
IT'S AMAZING : D. I'm so excited to go there. It's basically in stone now I'm going to be moving there end of next Aug. and started my freshman year on campus I'll be dorming it up. I sat in their music theory 1 class and understood the vast majority so that was cool. Made me feel smart :P. Their music programme is astounding. I was intensely impressed. I thought it was going to be so-so, but I was happily prooved wrong. I plan on majoring in music and minoring in history there. Also everone there was suprisingly nice and chill and cool. Anyhoo later that day we went to a year 10-11 football game cause my mates sister teaches at that teams highschool.
If you don't know already I personally hate watching football unless there are these things present.
The San Francisco 49er's
People to go outside and chill with so I can just pop back in half way through the 3rd quarter
And interesting playing.

This game had none of these factors and frankly the team sucked :P haha. Bad day for Hart JV football (by football I mean the American football Emmah [and yes that is how I will always spell your name]) But I've heard they've had betterdays so I guess that was an off Friday.
So after that we went to a classical concert for the uni and the choral arragement was ridiculous. They did some stuff that was just like.
"What the crap??!?!?" haha. so tight.

Then Saturday was downtown santa monica shopping. And I got a sweeeeet scarf and another rad shirt. That night was BJ's and then I watched a movie with my mate back at the apartment. The new James Bond I still think is a bit iffy I have to get used to him. But he plays good poker heh.
Then Sunday we drove back home to good ol' sactown and I went to my bud Sarah's Birthday party. Hot Tubbin Fun.

That's pretty much it. Now I have my week full of exams, yay. So far I got an A on my first sign quiz I have another in Wednesday I have studying for my Music Recording mid term exam and studying for my Uni Exam (SAT) all week and then SAT Saturday and Mid Term next Tuesday.

ROCK N' ROLL!

Now back to SAT studying and IHOP streaming goodness :)

Politik (the only one)

Now I'm not a big person to get involved with politics cause I thing they are overdeltwith but after today I had to vent somewhere.

This blog is my personal Beliefs and some myths and logicstics people need to know.
NOTE: This is not a dem hating blog please if you are a democrat continue to read. We might not share the same views but that's okay.
If you are a Republican and most importantly a Christian Republican please read this entire blog and don't get mad at the ending.

BeforeI begin I want to state please ignore some of my horrific grammatical errors! Thank you.
As many of you know the American Election this year is between to unlikely pairs of people. On The Democratic Ticket we have possibly the first Black President Barak Hussien Obama and another classic old grey white guy Joe Biden.
The Republican ticket we have the classic (very) old white guy John McCain and possible the first woman to have the title of "president" in their job discription: Sarah Palin.
Lets sort out the uneccecary arguments first.
If you vote for McCain you are not a racist.
if you vote Obama you are not a sexist.
I just want to drill that in to your little heads. Racism and Sexism has nothing to do with this election. (or it has a .000009 percent value)

Now I personally believe that voting for McCain would be the best choice for America cause that Obama basically would make this the peoples republic of north america haha.
of course I'm exaggerating but to a length he would put into action a plethera of socialistic views.
E.G. Universal Health Care. There is a reason people from Canada come to the US of A to get surgery.
"Spreading The Wealth" this is the very concept of Socialism. You tax the wealthy (who worked hard and diligently to earn their money) and you give it to the poor (who generally didn't work as hard). Now I do realize there are flaws in that statement cause there is the occasional person who just stumbled blindly into wealth and ther is the person who stumbled blindly into poverty. But honestly anything is possible if you throw away all the stereotypes of American Society and make something of yourself.
Another subject he wants to introduce is that we should negoiate with our enimeis.
As I remember he said that he would sit down with Rual Castro (The Bad one of the Castro brothers) Of Cuba and talk out our differences.
To bad he'd shoot you if you got within 1 mile of him.
Obama in inexperienced in this area of foreign relations obviously.
And of course I'm pro-life and pro-traditional-marrige (the latter as of today that issue is wavering in my mind) and obama is the opposite.

Now that I have introduced some simple Logic into your intensly brainwashed and media infected mind here is something for the Right Wing Christians. (sorry if I offend you. But I most likely will)

If Obama Is Elected Jesus Is Not Coming Back. haha. I understand this election has a great deal wavering on it cause of the supreme court justices but seriously, one day a Democratic President will be elected. There two parties. and the trend lately has been around every two terms a switch.
E.G Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush.
America has had a lot of Republican influence and they want something new. So this might just be them trying to get their feet wet into some other ideals.
So please, calm down. It's just 8 years (max). And for all we know in four years Sarah Palin could be running for president and clean up Obama and the Democratic Congress's mess.
If Obama is elected our country will have Democratic overload and they will bounce back for sure.

Now to Dispell some myths.
A. I understand there is publicity going on to the fact that Obama might not be an American born citizen. I could be wrong be people lets get real here. Do you really think this man would gamble his entire future away?
And so soon. I mean he's only been in the senate for 8 years. Come'on I think if he would take this gamble he'd build up some credibitlity and some experience first.
I think the inmagination of the republicans (and the random democrat filing said lawsuit)
have wandered a little to far
Which brings me to this issue I faced today. (Ironically in downtown santa monica haha) I was talking to a friend of mine and they stated that since the democrats have control of congress and if Barack became president that they would overrule the Constitional Admendment that states "you can only serve as president for two terms". This brought me to the edge. Have you people literally gone insane? I understand that our country is turning in a bad direction. But we are not a socailistic totalitarian government!!!!! Seriously our country goes through good times and bad times. (to our point of view). There are other people in America that don't think just like you.
They are not you "enemy" and they will get their chance to try their views in American government.
we are a democracy created for the people by the people and let me quote one of my favourite lines in literature ever written.

"All Men Are Created Equal And Endowed By Their Creator With Certian Unlienable Rights, Amoung These are Life, Liberty, And The Pursuit Of Happiness" - Thomas Jefferson the Decrelation Of Independance.

This is a free country in which everyone gets their say.
Now for you Democrats this might be your time to shine.
for you Republicans you'll get another chance.
We go in and out.

Just because Barack might win doesn't me we become the U.S.S.R and in 30 years Jesus Comes back on a white horse.
(don't me started on the end times by the way hahah)

So Relax, and please by all means.
VOTE NOV. 4Th!
Vote for your Ideals and for your Beliefs!
May the best man win in this country with freedom for all!

God Bless You! God Bless America! And God Bless Fender Guitars!!!

Your friendly neighborhood indoctrinator,

First off here is a deep thought to think of. Me and Lana figured out on Sunday that:

"Normality Is Realitive"

Think about it........think about it long..............think about it hard........chew on it..................keep chewin........soak it.............marinate it..........give it flavour in your thought process..............
.................okay enough digesting Lana and I's deep introspective philosophy.

I'm going to be heading out on a grand voyage (all of 8 hours) tomorrow.
I'm hittin up the good ol' Los Angeles. There is a uni down there I'm going to be checking out. I'll also be chillaxin at the beach, shopping for radicalbadical clothes (mostly scarves since I own only one currently heh). I even might be going to six flags magic mountian.
Which would be TIGHT. Last time I was there (two years ago) it was pretty fun.
Plus I'll be missing two days of school who can go wrong there?

So I'm pretty excited, should be a good adventure.
There is one downside though. That would have to be something that came alot faster than I thought it would..........

College?

Confused

So I was planing tonight to go to an art thing on vernon street in roseville but it was a high price gig it wasn't free so I thought.
"oh well, I guess I'll just go to first service and leave and not do second"
so I go to sit in first and it starts off with this.

"Now I'm really happy I'm preaching on this and not what I was supposed to.
Which was 'Mother Wounds' *vast majority of church laughs*"
and he continues on that subject and how he's glad he didn't preach it.

Now for some of you I'm pretty sure you know where this is going.
Mother wounds is probably one of the largest struggles I've had and still have.
Me and my mum have had some intense and horrible times. But we've gotten alot better.
now I understand that he didn't want to preach it cause he had no back round with it I hold Nothing against him. What confuses me is that the church laughed.
more than once.
I mean seriously, I figured there had to be someother people that struggled with that I know I can't be the only one. But at the same time

Why'd they laugh? Is it that feeble and uncommon of a matter.

I really don't know what to make of this.....

32 C today

Currently Listening:
The Grey man
You Are My Sunshine
Copeland

This is ridiculous.
It's about almost a whole month into the fall season.
And I'm positive it must've hit at least 32 C today.

I'm kindof upset at the fact I was wearing a scarf and a coat last Friday cause it was so cold.

Stupid PMSing Sacramento haha.

But it's all good cause I just purchased Copeland's "You Are My Sunshine" box set!
It's one of my all time favourite bands new album/box. It comes with the album/notes/live footage/and the making of and their new music video.
If you want to hear it check out.
"The Grey Man" at www.myspace.com/copeland
Such good music!

I'm at peet's coffee and tea now enjoying some iced green tea with honey and am about to get my hair cut. A bit above the eyebrow. So it should be nice. I'm excited, I love short hair now.

That's my Friday update, LA and Masters Uni visit in five days!!!

Blogging? (My Break From Music)

Currently Jamming To:
Exo-Polotics
Blackholes and Revelations
Muse


Haven't done this for about a good year.
Thought I might wanna bring back the baseline if you know what I mean.

I think I'll mainly use this for posting new songs up and for just random ramblings.
Nothing better than long stringed out thoughts.

: ).

So I'll start out right now with my recent life happenings.

I am one week into my break from music. I am doing it for three weeks. Cause I believe that God wants me to get down to the roots of our relationship so I can find him in the secret place again. To kindof "Nudge" me into this season my wrists,shoulders, and ankles have all be in PAIN. Randomly too. So for my saftey I stopped. But then when I went to the service at the local House Of Prayer. I realized that God is doing a little interuption in my life. Cause honestly the whole gind of worship, school, and socail. Had gotton really monotonous. And I wanted something fresh.
Well God answered me there haha.
So now I'm having amazing personal times with God and He is doing a lot of renovation and taking me deeper.
So this break definitely was His will and it's a rad, good feeling you get when you know you're in God's will.
(Much to the dismay of the six different worship leaders I'm on call for)

Prayer would be nice for this Saturday. I have to play the two saturday services cause they couldn't find a replacement. There sitll might be a chance Brian Kane can play for just one more week before I start playing in his place. Which would be a hudge blessing to know I wouldn't have to strain my muscles or break my break haha.

So yeah that will be all :)

And I'm waiting patiently
