wow I haven't written in forever. on October 29th, i ditched my last two class periods. my friends who were with me, told me that the school wouldn't call unless i ditched like 5 more times. they called at around 6:30 that night. my dad was pissed but my mom fuckin exploded on me. i dont really remember all that she said but it was bad. she took my guitar away for the week. i read 3 books that week. i also got really into my serj tankian cd that i had just bought. anywho, i broke two pairs of drumsticks this week. one pair at school and the other pair on my set two days later. i hit way too hard. it's probably cuz i'm always angry. anyway, i purchased Queens of The Stone Age's Lullabies To Paralyze. i really like Everyone Knows That You Are Insane. The saturday before the day I ditched, I had this "recital" type thing at my towns Guitar's Etc. I kicked ass with my own original song that i actually don't have written down, surprisingly. i'm kind of sick of it now and i've already written two or three more songs. one of them i wrote most of last night at like midnight. It's kind of light, based of a part of a Coheed and Cambria thing I saw in the latest Guitar World magazine. It's fingerpicked, which is something I'm not very good at but i can do it for this new song. I've noticed that a lot of my songs sound like instrumentals. this could be because I don't have lyrics for them yet but they just kind of have that vibe goin on. anyWHO, i was looking at this awesome Fender Strat custom, it looked like, at Guitars Etc. It has a black body and neck, brown/black sparkly pickguard, humbucker bridge pickup. i was gonna buy it when i had the money but it already got sold. i'm so pissed about that. now, i'm looking at the Ibanez's, one of which is only $230. it kind of looks like an SG but different. it doesn't have whammy bar capability and i want a guitar with a whammy. i'm kind of looking at the Fender looking ones because they have whammy's but there's this other one that's pretty much the same as the first Ibanez i mentioned but cherry red with a black pickguard. i have no idea if it's whammy capable but i think i'll get that one. anywho, that's all i can really say for right now.
