Lost Inspiration

I haven't drawn in a long time, almost a month now. Which isn't long, but that's like Cyborg not playing piano for a month. I just stopped. I realized I'll never be able to afford the cheapest art school, which is the one in San Francisco. I think that had something to do with it. I haven't worked in photoshop, done any graffiti drawings, even tagged my name. Well I take that back, I wrote a letter to Emiri the other day, and I drew our names on that. But that's it. Well, yesterday I was at SnowJam, and ski and snowboard convention. There was this booth there for Sno Bro clothing, stupid name huh? Reminds me of Slowbro haha. My brother made a comment about it, I don't remember what he said about the name, but he said I could blow their designs out of the water. They had a generic font as their main logo. Which I still can't place where I've seen that font before. And some other designs etc. It kinda made me motivated to get back into drawing. So I've been thinking about it, looking at other peoples art. And it's just not pushing me into getting back to my dusty desk and getting back to work. Maybe it's cause I'm sick. Being sick sucks, I've been sick since thursdayish. I laid in bed all day and called out of work saturday, sunday i went to work but laid in bed for most of the day. And today I'm just feeling lazy, although I have quite a bit of cleaning to do. And work to get ready for in less than two hours. Guess I better get to it.

November

Is finally here. And with November approaches the end of marching season.
So soon? Yeah, I guess so.
The season passed by faster than a blink of an eye.
The season has been no less than enjoyable.
Sure-We've had those days, but who hasn't? They're pretty unavoidable.
All in all, I can say that I am satisfied with where we are in relation to where we started.
Last night, we laid on the field after rehearsal was said and done (which was pretty fantastic to say the least.)
The stars. They aren't extremely in-your-face visual, but they're there.
They're gorgeous. I never knew how peaceful the silence could be- when its dark and you're surrounded by people who you've grown close to.
There's nothing quite like Band and how its influenced my perspectives on life.
I definitely don't know what I'm going to do without this program next year.
It's helped me grown into my own shoes. And next year, I'll have to manage without it.

I'm really stressed over college. It's not a user-friendly system and I hardly understand what needs to go into it in order for me to be successful. Let alone where exactly I'm heading.I just know that I want to write music, or play music or something along those lines. I keep telling myself that I'll cross that bridge when I get there but its just right around the corner. I'm there, its just I'm in denial that I am.

I definitely need to step it up after the season ends.
Get a job, finish my College apps so I don't have to worry about them later, and get my Transcripts.

Here's to being a senior.
