Enjoying My Last Day Off.....

Well, I go back to school tomorow. Joy. I've been off for MLK's B-day and today is a teacher's workday. I am entering my 2nd semester. This semester I have all of my hard classes, like Geometry and Honor's English. It will be cool though. Next Saturday, I am going to that All District Band tryouts, so pray for me. It is really tough. Usually everything comes easily but this is like some Senior stuff.

Well, in the last post I put "I'm Trying" as the title, but a good friend of mine reminded me of one of my favorite quotes......."DO OR DO NOT, THERE IS NO TRY" Now whoever reads this blog, guess who says this quote....Leave it in my comments. There is one person I know that reads this that CANNOT leave a comment.....*You know who you are....* Anyways, just try and guess for fun. I will tell you next post, or give you a few days to figure it out. I am going to go by that quote. A smart person says that....(You will be on top of my cool list if you guess correctly).

I'm not sure if many of you know, but I am into website development, (html\css\javascript\ etc...) and I am working on making a website. It will be awesome, and I will post the url when I finish it. You all will love it. I am gonna start on it next week. It will be a nice surprise. For you.....and me. It will be awesome. Well, wish me luck for school, and with the web design stuff. (I love computers, bad thing is, I barely get to use them. When I get my own.....man, it'll be on then!) Lol. Anyways, I will tell about my classes next post.

I can never think of a good ending....So....umm....bye....?

I'm Trying....

to have a positive attitude.....seriously....*I say as I TRY to smile...* No, really. I really want to have a positive outlook and view on life. But it is hard. Seriously. I have been in bad moods lately and not being that bright.....like I used to be. I used to be happy and joke around and smile even when there was nothing to smile about. I have no idea what happened.

Well, actually I kinda do. A mixture of puberty and lots of really explosive events. But, I am going to be more happier. In general. I really don't like being in the dumps because then I am not an encouragement to anyone. And I really want to be. Or, at least, try to be. I am in the process of getting FUSSED at to go to bed (I had 3 minutes). I have to go. Have a nice life....Till next Time....hahaha.

Umm......Sorry? Will An Oath Make It Up?

Hey Guys.......umm....long time no see.....Please don't kill me. :) I really wanted to post, but every time I was allowed on the computer I had to do other things. Well, life is pretty well these days, yes there are things to complain about, but whats the point? We all have to continue to lead our own lives, so lets all help others with their problems, and we dont have to worry about our own. MARK MY WORDS.....I am making an oath.....I WILL CONTINUE TO BLOG MORE. There. I made it. So you all can say "remember your oath?". and get mad at me or something. Anyways, I seriously am gonna have to post more so I dont have to write a novel each time I update you guys on my life. If any of you see me in real life, remind me not to say "yell" and say "fuss". For example, ....Matt says,"Man, I wish _____ would stop yelling at me!" I would have to refrase that to "blah blah blah blah ______ fussing at me". You know what I mean. Just remember that because I have a tendancy to be quite dramatic. *hahaha* Well, life is.....(like usally) preety fast at times, then at sometimes massively slow. I passed all of my classes this semester with an A's and B's so that is good.( I should of had all A's though). Next semester I am gonna have all my hard classes...:(.....It snowed, which rocked. It was awesome. We sled, and one time I was goin down the hill and went strait through the briars and went onto the road. *Laughes Histerically* Ahh....good times, good times....Im outta school until Wednesday.....which is good, so I have no excuse not to blog ...hehehe. Well, have a nice life, and I will talk more.....Ya'll come back now ya' hear????........no really....please.

What's New...

Well, I haven't posted since Christmas Eve. Which is bad, I know, but I have very good reasons......1) I don't have a computer.....to my own name....2)When I do get to use it, I have a limited amount of time. Anyway, Christmas was great! I am very thankful for all the stuff I got. We went up to Ohio, and had a pretty good time, then I saw my mom up there which overall, went pretty good. Then, we got a dog...It is a Golden Dooldle. (Mix between a golden retriever and a poodle.) We, (after endless brainstorming of names) finnally ended up naming it Madeline....Maddie for short. We also had a revival at church (3 days) and I played a lot of basketball. Everybody at the house has been sick(except for me) so I will probably end up getting it, because I am at school right now, and I feel like I have been hit by a train. Seriously, this morning I woke up, and went into the bathroom, layed down on the floormat, balled up a towel and went back to sleep. I almost missed the bus, which would of stunk, because today this dude that has been in the National Drum Corps (this really huge professional band with awesome drummers that march on the field) is coming to our school to help the people that go for the All- District Band (State Band) auditions. Me!!!! I was the only person in my school to make the band tryouts for the All-District Band- Snare Drum. So that dude is going to try and help me with my solo for when I go to Wake Forest in a couple of weeks to try out. Well, I am extremly tired, and I think the bell is about to ring, so I am going to go.

"Ya'll come back now, Ya hear???"

Christmas Eve......

is extremely boring.I'm bored right now so I have decided to post it. There. Ok. Now what? Ummmm......let's see....Church was good yesterday, and Mr. Luigi (codename for a person most of know) gave me these cups called 'Speed Stackers' for Christmas. You have to stack them really fast *hence the name*. No, they sound massively corny, and you are probably laughing out loud, but they are actually fun. I am getting pretty good at them (but thats probably what half of the world's kids are saying right now), and you have to do these formations in a certain amount of time. It is really competitve. And I like it.Now bored....Lol....again...Well, if God intervenes maybe we will have a drumset back in the Church in maybe a month. That is good for me, but some people probably did not like it. Some people did, and thats why we can get another one......(hopefully).Christmas is tommorrow and that will be fun. I still havent wrapped stuff, so I think I'm going to hand it out in Ingles' bags. Or maybe WalMart.....those guys broke me....Seriously, I thought I had some $$$ until I went to Wally World (walmart) and they emptied my pockets. Now I am broke as a joke. I honestly don't know what I am gonna do today...it is making me crazyyy...noooooo.......ahhhhhhh.....no more 'Speed Stackers'......noooooooo.....I'm gonna go play with my drumsticks....It's the only thing keeping me alive. **Thank you God. For drums, drummers, and drumsticks, and music, too. Amen** Sorry, now I am calm...where was I? Oh yeah, I am leaving now. Have a nice Christmas Eve. Ya'll come back now, ya' hear???

A Short Update

I am extremely sorry.....I haven't posted in forever.....I've kinda not been allowed...... I will hopefully be able to post more.

Christmas is coming soon!!! That is gonna be awesome. I will kind of be sad some becase I will not get to see my family, but I will deal with it... School is out, thank God. We are going up to Ohio....I will get to see my Mom for Christmas....that will be pretty cool. The break will be over fast because we come home the day before school, but at least I have some time off.

I really want a drum set really bad, and I pray that I can get a good one soon. Well, I have to go.....I will talk later!!! Until next time......hahaha....bye.

Things Are Looking Good at This Point....

Dear World,

Well. It's been a rough week. Really rough. I havent been able to post something on this beast for about a week.....(I've been grounded.) Things have been pretty hard. I can't go into detail, but trust me......Anyways, I had a band concert Thursday...that went really good. I got a solo.....it was awesome. Then on Monday we had Pep Band. (The band that plays for the B-ball games.) I'll be able to post more hopefully. I talked to Jeremy (the guitar player in my band, and my best friend) and Brother Ken (my guardian, pastor, and good friend) and we made an awesome deal. If Bro. ken gets to come to some of our practices we are allowed to practice in the dining hall maybe....and before people start thinking things.....no, we are not a rock or heavy metal band. We play what we feel. That's it. Classical, Jazz, Latin, Christmas, Blues, etc. That's why we are a good band. We are all musicians and music flows through us. It is Me (drums), Elliot (bass) and Jeremy (guitar). The deal isn't settled, but I hope it all goes well........I'm also really thankful too. I have had some really big personal victories in the past few days, and that was all God himself watching over me again....and people say there is no God because they can't see him, but in all reality if they look hard enough they will! I will add more soon but keep in mind my blog is still under construction. Well , enjoy your adventure into a crazy white boy's life.
