   Ladies And Gentlemen, I Have Seen God ..... And She Is Beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ^_________________________________________^
Everyone, do I have a post for you!!

Well, on Monday I don't really remember what I did. XD I think I did play my guitar more and, yes, try to learn new songs. Oh yeah! I tried learning Slayer's "Raining Blood." I got about the first two parts down, then when it went to hell I stopped learning it. XD I may try to learn it again when I'm more advanced.

Tuesday, more of the same. I did FINALLY learn all of As I Lay Dying song "Meaning In Tragedy". That chord part was weird, but easy once I got the hang of it. Also, school has been a little hectic. Loads of tests and stuff like that. But I keep trying so don't worry.

Wednesday, I kept practicing all of the songs I already know and, I don't know what possessed me, but I also tried to learn "Saffron's Curse" by Cradle Of Filth. Maybe the fact that Cradle did it made me want to learn it. Anyways, I almost have it down. And I got to talk to my old music teacher, Michael, on msn! We caught up on some stuff but I forgot to ask him about a drummer before he left. I'll try again later, though. Then we went to Wal-Mart where I got, yes, the NEW Atreyu album "A Deathgrip On Yesderday"!! Lemme put it this way: If you don't have that album, you suck!!!! That album is gold!!! If you do have it, you rule!!! I give it a 20 out of ten, going up there with albums like "The Curse", "Cruelty And The Beast", and "V Empire".

Thursday, my mom dragges me to town to all of her doctors appointments because she says I can stop in Hot Topic at least once during the day. What a crock!! I got in there and got what I needed, but man did she take forever in those places. I mean, we were so late getting out of the town, we had to call Randi and tell her that we couldn't be at lessons that day. That's actually good though, cause I didn't know that song that well. So, more practice time!! ^_^

Friday, I went on vacation to St. Augustine, which, if you've ever met my grandma, you KNOW how much she's been breathing down my neck about a trip there for the last ten years. XD Well, this coincided with the dance, right? Exactly! So, that's why I went. FOR THE DANCE!!! Okay, I'm confusing a lot of you right now, I know. Well, lemme make it simple. Who have I been saying I've been going to this dance with? *waits for response* Right! And who lives in St. Augustine? *waits and smiles* Riiiiight! Now, read the title to this post. Okay, now who did I go with?

KAREN!!!!!!!! ARE YOU BLIND!?!?!? ^____________^

Well, yes, so I got there and hung out with her and all of her friends (Allison, you are hyper! XD). Then, for some reason, I couldn't eat dinner when we went out to get something and started feeling bad. But, by dance time, I was back to normal. I don't know if any of you know what bass speakers near you head does, but man is it loud! That was just really loud! But I had a great time (and I hope you did, too, K-chan). Lots of dancing, talking to her friends, walking around the place by ourselves, OH YEAH!, and calling this guy Sterling a pimp! XD But, yes, Friday kicked ass.

Saturday, um, I woke up SICK!!! I was still in the hotel room and it felt like I had been to an afterparty. I was puking in garbage cans and just not feeling well at ALL!! I got some medicine though and hung out with Karen on Saturday. We walked around this mall we saw o the way to the dance and started looking for shops here and there. Weird east indian places, Pac Suns, music shops, and we got some sodas, though my stomach hadn't been able to hold any food since Friday morning. I did get one album, though. The re-issue of the first Darkest Hour album "So Sedated, So Secure". After that, we dropped her off at the college, said our goodbyes (Though I didn't want to. I wanted to stay! T_T), and we had to leave for home. Oh and I listened to the Darkest Hour album. It gets a nine out of ten! Really good grab! When we got back to my grandma's, it turns out that my Albany cousins had come here. Man, were they P.O.ed that I had left them. I don't care, though. I had the best time with K-chan.

Sunday, before my cousins went back home, we went out to eat at this seafood place, which led to one of my cousins trying to get everyone to give him their grilled shrimp. Believe me, I taunted him like crazy! XD That was the best! And that has been my long and crazy week! WHEW!!

As for this week, I plan to write new songs now that I know how to put the beats in there now. Wish meh luck!

You know something, it's poem time once again!!!

Signs point to paths I cannot see,
Blinded by swarns of deceit flowing east on the breeze.
He'll want to take me to keep me alive
But her arms are as nooses and shall mimic their squeeze.

Scarlet beauty flowing,
Presses to garmets of nightfall.

Oh, is death too much to ask for?
For this is what thy presence brings.
No coffin they make shall keep me from you
Even if they tied it with my own broken heartstrings.

Scarlet beauty flowing,
Offset by Luna's cresent amulet.

Tell me, O purity incarnate,
Am I thy love or the most hellish curse?
Even after one side takes my soul
My love will live on, verse by verse.

Scarlet beauty flowing,
Envelope jewels from the heavens as trikets for they neck.

Scarred and starry night, enlargened dew soaks me wet,
I death my soul can rest, in this life it shall not.
My life turned upside down, a plague for all to see,
But you came from below, and fro my soul you have fought.

Scarlet beauty immortilized,
Creation is as I am, all yours.

Wow, I don't know where that came from. Probably caffine. XD Anyways, tell me what you think guys.

Now, the video this week is the same as it was last time. It's Eighteen Visions with "I Let Go" off their album "Obsession". This was the first song I EVER recommended on here, WAY back when I couldn't play the videos! I really find this video funny, like one of those movie house parties! Hoep you guys like it.

Okay! This month's Band Of The Month is one from around here. It's my old music teacher's band Engaged In An Open Casket Standoff!! In case you're wondering, Michael's the one wearing the "Jackknife" shirt! XD Anyways, they don't have any albums out yet, but from what I've heard off their demo, they are excellent! You can actually order their demo from them off of their myspace. It www.myspace.com/eiaocs . Check them out and give them some support now! Come on!

This week's question: You got any ideas for the funny video I should play next week?

Last week's question: I have a bad procrastination problem. XD

Well, I gotta go really soon. I hope you all had great weekends, especially you, Karen. And take care of those gifts! ^_~ *hugs* I'll try to get some pics of my trip and the dance on here by Thursday! Well, see you all on Thursday. Take care and stay (sic).
