tick tock tick tock

5 more days until my first test officially begins. I cant wait. Oh joy. Then tests for 2... 3 weeks in a row. Oh boyyy. Soooo exciting.

On the brighter side, I just learned how to play You and Me by Lifehouse on the guitar with this new string muting technique thing that makes it sound really nice. It's kind of cool. And plus my Martin strings from HK are finally here. :) And Jimmy gave me a set of Dean Markleys for my electric. Although I would have totally preferred Ernie(s) Ball(s) just cuz of the name.

My computer is now triplebooted with XP, Vista, and Ubuntu 9.04. Its kind of cool. Although I am kinda of running out of harddrive space. How did I use 600Gb again?

I have awesome friends.

testtesttesttesttesttesttest

There are five seasons in junior year: Winter, Spring, Test season, Summer, and Fall. Vivaldi missed one. I think the sudden drop in the amount of sleep I'm getting is a sure sign that test season has begun. On top of that all day, I hear underclassmen whining about how they can't finish their work. Sophomores and freshmen complaining about how much work they have just plain pisses me off. How many AP and SAT exams are you taking? Yeah that's what I thought.

Also, my computer died on me. I am no longer able to boot Vista anymore, and now I am running XP. Wasted three hours of my time yesterday trying to get it to work. Piss me off.

My cellphone has dust inside of it on the screen so that I can't clean it without taking my whole phone apart. Piss me off.

I just changed new guitar strings that actually sound worse than my old rusty ones onto my acoustic guitar. Piss me off.

What is wrong with my life? I cannot wait until summer, where I can finally get a job and work on something other than schoolwork. Not much better, but hey, at least its different.

all the above!

My music taste can generally be described as incredibly diverse. I like pretty much everything, especially oldies rock. However, I don't really listen to death metal and some types of rap. 

So... I also have a new favorite song pretty much everyday or two. CUZ THERES SO MUCH GOOD MUSIC OUT THERE! And my new favorite song of the day is All the Above feat. T-Pain by Maino. I don't usually listen to R&B but this is really good. :)

I have a band called the Chicken Biskits, created for the Rock for Charity event. Website is at http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1686090067#/group.php?gid=65354838431. Anyways, we had practice today, and my lead guitarist has problems counting. Spent an hour getting four bars of his solo right, literally, and its still not completely right. All good fun though, kinda.

Half day tomorrow, prom on saturday. How exciting. Finally some fun in my life!
