Back In AZ(Dec 2nd-5th) YAY!

Well, it's been about six months since I've been back in AZ and I'm glad that I'm going back to a place I use to call "Home". Well, I take that back. It is my home. Will always be my home. I'm still trying to find my click here in O.C., but I'm almost at my goal on finding it. Which is in the works. Works as in... Making a Difference. I originally wanted to be in a band, but finding one here is hard. It's even harder trying to build one from the ground up. However, I like to say that I'm still trying to find a drummer for the beginning for the band. DJ, John, and myself are still in the looking for one. Oh how we like to start a PowerViolence band.

Got a bit off subject. Well, I'm going to my first home in Eloy. It's going to be great. I get to catch up with all my friends and family. My sister is getting big. She is big, ok? I said it. Haha... My lil sister is still in school. My mom is still doing her thing with work and stuff. They told me that they were in Tucson for Thanksgiving this year. Which is something difference. Every year we go to my Grandparents house to eat a dinner. The past two years, I have spend it with my Mar Mar. Feel kind of bad. First off, should I be celebrating this holiday? The holiday is about genocide, but that was thousands upon thousands of years ago. Is it like I can change it just back to my native people in the US. Plus, now of days, things have clear up. I, myself just can't think of hating what has happen back then. I'm not a hateful person. And why do we only have to be thankful on one day. Honestly, everyday is thanksgiving. I try too be everyday. Especially ever since I moved here. I'm away from family and whatnots. It's been hard that I can't see them like I use to.

It's been lonely, and I've been getting thru it. But eh... work has been dragging me down. I'm working 40 hours, but I'm not full time. I really need a new job. I apply online at all these jobs, but nothing. Whatever happen to going in and making the first impression to the boss? Makes easier paper work on them, but who are they really hiring? However, do the boss(es) really want to see who they are hiring and pay attention to the resume and facts? I don't know, but please just hire me!!!

Well, two more days till Mar Mar and I take off to AZ in my hometown of Eloy. Ahhhh... I can't wait. I can't wait to visit everybody. hopefully I can. I'm up with Mar Mar now. She's sick and helping her get thru this. She says it make her feel better when I'm here close to her. I don't believe her, but what ever that has to be done to make her feel good. I want to make her feel better. So scratch what I said, I do believe. Haha. Hope she feels better sooner than later. I might buy her a Starbucks tomorrow, if she does feel good.

Tomorrow, I release what I'm going to call, Project: O.C. Slackness. This has to work... or else.

P.S. I forgot how good, and how much I miss Thrice. I miss these songs. Great shit man!

Missing In "Action!"

"NO!" Says the Braskies in their song "Heart & Soul". My Favorite song from them. And I miss that song. I believe the last time I heard the song was... Well, I thinking in Tucson when we did a show with them at the Living Room. Only a hand full of people showed up. Felt bad that They came all the way down here and played to 10 people. Better than nothing, you know?

It reminds me of them from when the AZ Ska Weekend in April. After Reggie left. It seem to me that all local music died in AZ. Or maybe it's just me. The Braskies are back now, yet. Still seems they are not as flexible as they use to. Feels like I'm doing the same with me here and doing nothing all of a sudden. I keep telling myself that it's just me being too busy with work. But even with that said, I can still do something on the side. Too bored to where I want/need to go to ever show I can, but can't. I'm missing a big part of me when I moved out here. I miss getting out there in playing to myself in a bedroom, or go as far as Flagstaff to play in from of a great number of people. I miss it a lot.

I am trying to get a band together still with my friend DJ in Garden Grove. I feel between him and I we can make a kickass band. I can really feel it. But no luck with a drummer. I am playing bass in a ska punk band with my friend Matt. But No dice on getting together as one to do so.

I just hope when I do get into a band, I haven't lost my musician's skill. :/

Only Five Minutes To Write This.....

So, I'm feel like I'm going crazy. Something is missing in my life. Of course I miss my friend and family in AZ. But I feel lazy... Well, not lazy, but very inactive with what I'm not doing. I need to get out more and find something to do. I still want to get this band going to do some shows out here and hopefully out there in AZ. However, I am disable to do anything without a car.

Someone... buy me a car. :P
