Ok so here it goes, Its been absolutely forever since I wrote in this thing, I can't even remember what my last entry was, but I restarted my computer and Blurty popped up so I decided, why not write in it, no one reads it anyway's? So I guess it'll just be a huge update of what I have accomplished or done. So after this past semester at OCC majoring in Electronic Media Communication or (EMC for short) which pretty much just adds up to Radio and Television production. I've decided to take the audio track instead of the video. In the long run I'd like to work in a recording studio running the board as an engineer or a producer(ultimately). I really think I can attribute to music somehow in someway, I think. I have so many ideas, and sounds running through my head that I would love to hear on a record, but I know I could never do it myself. So yeah. I want to produce other bands music, and get the good stuff out there. So as I was saying after school ended, I went straight to Long Point Camp, So the day I took my last test I packed and the following evening I left and began to work there full time. It was all right, I mean it was as good as it could get being on an empty camp out in the middle of nowhere, at least the day time there were people, but at night is when the animals came to plan, and Steve stayed inside or went to "town" or Geneva got a movie at Blockbuster or something to pass the time till the morning. Then after about 2 weeks being there by myself my best friend Jerry came down and stayed with me and worked during the day and weekends like me, doing maintenance mainly. Hey at least the good thing out of the ordeal was that I got to drive a tractor to do a garbage run. Fun to drive, not fun to unload at least I had someone to help me. That job (maintenance) lasted about a month, and then my actual camp contract kicked in. I was then deemed, "The Candy man" because I ran the Canteen or Candy Shop as I told the incoming campers. I did that for 2 and half months from (June to August). So yeah, I've been keeping pretty busy. I sure do miss camp and all the people in it, but I'm used to by now. The whole thing about dealing with separation and stuff. I mean at least the people I care about seeing or hearing from again I am actually staying in contact with. I had a good summer over all. Some notable people to mention: Jerry (awesome guy, class act), Steve and Raksha (Great people, truly care about others), Scott and Danielle (they helped me out, and made me feel like I was not the only one, great people) Dot( My German friend, also a great person, I'll never forget that last night when we were late for curfew, and everybody probably thought we were making out, maybe I only wish too much. But when we did are thing, it was fun, yeah) Richard (My English mate(heh)(friend) I'll get you back you Zeppelin I promise..ha ha.....what a great and amusing guy. Emma, my only friend from Wales you too are a great person, I sure hope you like Motion City Soundtrack. Sarah you're kind of messed up, but you're totally rad in my book. Jay well you always say how it seems like I'm the brother you've never had, I guess you're right, we've had some good times. Shannon, I know she'll never read this so I'll just say a few things. She started working off and on around the same time I did, then a certain person put a thought in my head that she liked me. The more I got to know her the stronger my feelings got. Yes I wanted to ask her out, but I guess I never had the guts, but maybe in the future, but I doubt it because I heard she's got a thing for David Flores, but maybe I'm wrong. So yeah, she's a great person, kind of crazy, really fun, and absolutely gorgeous, and might I add that on the banquet night when she straightened her hair she looked absolutely amazing I was in awe. But I guess she'll never know unless she stumbles upon this thing I'm writing which I doubt. SO those are the bunches of people that really made the summer fun sure there were others but I have a whole year to write about them. So next time you'll hear more about my many friends from across the world. So, currently I'm back at school taking more courses I've got a full load, so that's good gonna keep me busy.
Over this past summer there were a ton of music releases that are absolutely amazing in my book I'll just list them:
Brand New "Deja Entendu" This cd has not left my stereo, its made it onto my xbox so I can even kick it when I'm busting a 540 Benihanna over the fountain. Absolutely amazing cd, so many different dynamics.
The Mars Volta-----Absolutely weird off shoot of At the Drive in but I find it extremely interesting rock music, kind of like at the drive in meets Sigur Ros, which is wicked.
Spitalfield---all I have to say is wow, I thought it was going to be generic emo pop but was I surprised by this guys voice so crisp and non whiny I absolutely love and hope to see them on the 11th
Matchbook Romance "West For Wishing Ep" -----Wow pop/punk/emo/hardcore sound strange well its not that strange and it works so well, its great the harmonies and then all of the sudden this guy screams the lyrics back and you can understand it, awesome and I cant wait till their cd comes out on the 23rd
Then there's
Motion City Soundtrack "I am the movie" ----Great Rock band with synth to go along with it. All I have to say is that the Moog player is more into it than anybody I have ever seen, he does a flipping Superman move on his freaking keyboard stand its crazy!!!! But really they are a great band.
I guess that's long enough to make up for time lost. So if anybody reads this who knows me or doesn't know, send me and e-mail we can talk or something. It may be cool.. I don't know. Well that's it for now.
