So I have always been a big fan of the band 311 anyone that knows me knows this but as of recent I have just become obsessed over this band their sound, their stage presence in live shows, the fan following they have (the best around if you ask me), how they treat their fans, they are honestly to me the best band that has ever come into exsistence. Yeah you'll have people argue and say of Zeppelin and the Doors and even modern bands are better but to me those guys don't even compare to how great 311 is. I haven't ever heard a song by them I didn't like and I don't think that there is a day that goes by where I don't listen to their music. They have a way with music that just touches me like no other band can and I don't know that there are many other bands out there that can do that for people like they do it for me.
On to my real point with this post that is about 6 months apart from my last post. 311 day is coming up in march and I am to the point of doing almost anything to go and see them in vegas. This will/would be the concert of a lifetime and if that means not having any money for a few months because I blow it all on this trip then so be it I am sooooooo fine with that. Myself and Kyle will do whatever it takes to get there and if you want to help us and even come along you're more than welcome too. Just felt I should share my love for this awesome and one of a kind band with you all.

What I have learned...
Sometimes I feel like I am the only sane person in the entire world. I take a step back and think to myself no body has any respect or manners for anyone or anything anymore. Their common sense is out the window and their wok-ethic Foget about it! That left town a day and a half ago. I wish I just wish someone would come into my job or run in to me on the street and they would act and talk like I expect a normal sane person like myself does. On second thought no I don't hope that happens because I think I would have a heart attack if it did. And lord knows we the world couldn't afford to have me gone. Haha that makes me seem like such a cocky arroigant asshole but thats exactly how I feel and I makes no apologies for anything that I say.
People need to walk the Fuck up and realize that nothin in this world promised to you and that if someone has the chance they will you stab in the back without question for an extra dollar or two. Take everything and when its gone they're gone too. You'll find out who your true friends are when everything falls out the bottom of the soggy cardboard box and the only thing of worth or value to you is a piece of paper that says you got a degree in a field that either doesn't exist anymore or isn't hiring you unless you have 10 years of field experience but you can't get the field experience without a college degree that says you're certified to work in that field so you wind up working as a waitress or a bartender or possible even an Iron-worker something you could have done without going to college in the first place. It just seems to me that the only people who seem to get ahead in life are the ones that would sell their souls to the devil just to be popular or sleep wiith a beautiful women own a $40 Million dollar yacht and drive fancy cars just to say that they can.
I hope I never become so obsessed with money and material things that I forget who I am and what I stand for.I don't want to be like every other random idiot off the street who doesn't have a clue what the hell is actually happening in the quote "real world" (emphasize the hand qoutes).I am gonna try to make myself a better person everyday and become a great person who some day can set an example for generations to come.

Take it From me.
Well its the end of the school year all my friends are leaving and some I may not ever see again. Personally I have a hard time dealing with this even though I may not show it. In the past I was never one to get very sentimental over things like this but the past few weeks I have realized that the times you have with the people you love most usually don't last. So don't take them for granted and don't ever forget them. Let the small stuff go and concentrate on the good times you have and can have with people. Its just so crazy to think that I spent the last four years seeing the same people everyday and in less than a week they will all being going in a million different directions to start their new lives. I hope that I stay in touch with most of them and if not at least a select few that have touched my life. Which brings me to my next topic of having someone to love and love you in return. I have been single for the past oh say 6 months and yeah I have enjoyed it. Being able to do what I want when I want. The random hook-ups although that gets old after a while and people tend to look down upon it. The meeting of new people which I will never get sick of. However I have realized that finding the right person is probably one of the most wonderful and enjoyable things anyone could ever hope for. I know I have given certain people advice on this topic in recent times and I stand for and believe in what I told those people. I wouldn't give advice that I thought was wrong or flawed. I just realize that when its right there is nothing better than that. Knowing that person isn't gonna leave your side for anything, the comfort and assurance that comes from that couldn't provide any better a feeling. So don't be afraid to tell some you miss them or that you love them cause the small things count and the people you care about may not be there when you wake up in the morning.

Saves the Day
See I'm just waiting for the moment I can break away, the only reason why I stay so I can save the day.
Anytime I'm down or sad or something is going horrible I put on a song that reflects my attitude and things suddenly seem to get better. Although it may feel like you can't trust anyone at all in this world you can always trust good tunes to lift your spirits and put things into perspective. If music was never created life would be so damn dull that I don't think I could handle it. I guess what I am trying to get at is that if something as simple and awesome as music can change your mood in a matter of seconds than most shit doesn't really matter as I have said for years. So don't get caught up in the drama and the BS. Cause you can't control other's actions but you can control how you react to them.
