First Post

Hello! Hola! Aloha! Well first post of the new blog (sweet). This blog isn't going to be dedicated to anything in particular nor is it going to be beautifully written. I write way to many papers that have to be perfect so I need a space where I can msitpye things, make run-on sentences, or sentences that aren't sentences at all. It'll probably be written the way it sounds in my head. So there, take that you grammar nazis out there! -Thats cool if you are though..not hating on any perfectionist out in the world. Anyway, here's a little about me..

A very smart man asked me one day what my Ikigai was (no the word isn't misspelled). I didn't know what that was but supposably it's what gets you up and out of bed in the morning. So I'm like "Duh my alarm clock. It's friggin' on the other side of the room so I have to get out of bed or the stupid thing'll keep beeping." Well that was the wrong answer and I got smacked in the head. Well sorta, just kidding about the second part. I had to think about the real answer to the question for awhile. Then it hit me like a friggin brick wall and woke me up out of a deep sleep. DUH It's music! I live for music. I love everything about it. I mean yeah there are certain songs and artist I don't totally love but hey its still music right? I love to play music. My fav fav fav fav favorite instrument is the bass. I've been playing for like...lets see...7 years now? yeah thats right. I actually picked up the guitar first and was like "ok there are to many strings to hold down at once...so i'll pass on this one." Then I hopped on bass thinking its was going to be easier. WRONGO! It was actually pretty hard. Why you may ask? Because I didn't want to be a boring bassist. I really hate playing chord notes through the entire song. It's so well...yeah boring. I like bassists that push the boundries like...Flea (Red Hot Chilli Peppers) and Emma ( Sick Puppies). They are my inspirations. Ok so what else do I play? Hmm when I kinda dabble in a few other things like keyboards( darn you sheri for moving away and taking that beautiful keyboard with you! I was starting to get the hang of it), guitar ( I know like..3 chords but thats all you need right? No? oh..), and Ukelele ( yep I am a proud owner of 2. One in which was my grandmoms).
Oh and I was a marching band nerd in high school--but we won't go there-.

I am also a huge gamer and I love technology. Don't be afraid of technology, well not yet.

Blog ya later.

^--clever right?
