funny pt. 2

all my friends start college today. asuyghfdsaf
so we're in Orange, Ca right now at some starbucks in some mall.
I hate days we don't have shows or aren't driving or doing something productive,
but at least we're in a choice location.
It still trips me out to think how much life has changed in the past few months.
My life is crazy right now. I am dirt poor, but I'm the happiest I've ever been.
I have to work all day selling cds just to make enough money for gas to the next destination, but I love it.
I love talking and meeting all the new people, and I especially love the people who run away and refuse to listen to our music. hahaa
Tomorrow's the big day, photoshoot with Celina Kenyon! I'm pumped!
Then Show in Huntington Beach, then....
WARPED TOUR!
I am sooooo soooo sooooooooo excited to follow warped.
We're just gonna be meeting he coolest people all day long and getting to watch and hang with all my favorite bands. It's gonna be amazing.
So if you're going to any of the warped tour dates let me know and we can haaaaanngggg!

funny.

I haven't updated this in foreverrrr.
For those of you who don't know, here's a little update on my life.

So after everything I went through, I am not going to college.
Nope, no school for me. Not UCSB or CSUF.

Why, you ask?

well i had this brilliant idea to,
JOIN A ROCK N' ROLL BAND!

haha but no, seriously, for those of you who know me you know that music has always been my greatest passion in life. So when i was presented with the opportunity to have a go at my dream, and chase what I've always wanted, I dropped everything else and took it.

It's weird looking back at these last few months, from graduation to now. I was in a completely different place in my life two months ago at the end of senior year, and I was a completely different person. I always told everyone that I wasn't going to go to college, and that I was gonna join a band and tour the world, but not even my best friends believed me. To be honest i thought I was full of crap too. I didn't think it would actually ever happen, so it's weird looking back and seeing just how, perfectly, everything fell into place. Coincidence?

So anywho, After graduating I still didn't know what i was going to do, and by the grace of God i ended up coming in contact with, and later joining A Midsky Surrender. (myspace.com/amidskysurrender)
I moved up to Turlock, Ca in the beginning of July and have been living and touring with them since. I absolutely love all the guys and they have become some of my closest friends. We had our up and downs, but in the end we came out stronger and better than before. We're currently on our first real tour which ends the 18th, and then we follow the remaining California warped tour dates selling cds and pushing our name. It would me so much to me if all my friends from back home came out to the Fresno date 8/19 and came and hung out and bought a cd. I miss all you guys!

We just recently got a LEGIT manager who we are all super stoked about! He's gonna do great things for us! We're taking new promos in like a week or something, and then we're getting a whole new myspace and everything. We'll also be posting our cover song when we release the new layout! Some of you have already heard it:) haha it's soooo good! The next step for our band, according to our manager;), to is to get signed, record a full length and get it in stores and into kids hands, and TOUR TOUR TOUR! This is seriously a dream come true. It still feels so unreal to me. I don't feel like a real musician, or like i'm in a real band at all. I still feel like a kid jamming with his friends in a garage. haha

So yea that's what going on with me post-graduation. I truly do miss everyone and hopefully we'll all get to hang soon! I'll be in kingsburg after this tour on like the 24th? to get my wisdom teeth out! I want to see EVERYONE while I'm there! Kingsburg will always be my home<3 random side note: The kingsburg recorder is interviewing me and doing a story about me as a touring musician. Weird.

Everyone make sure to check out my band if you haven't already!
We're going to have NEW EVERYTHING in a few weeks! Big things are coming from us, so be on the lookout.
