Rainy Days


So this is the start of a story-line! On a related note, it rained basically everyday last week. We'll probably never see that much rain the rest of this year. It was pretty heavy. Before it was cold and dry but I like the way the air smells after the rain stops.

Lately I feel like I've been making the wrong decisions. I thought I was making the right choices, but my parents  seem to contradict everything I do. I guess they know best. I just want to develop those skills properly before next year. I plan to try out for section leader (of the french horns!) next year when I'm a senior. It looks good on a college application.. Plus the other juniors are going to try out too. Then we'll be a triumvirate, like Caesar's, you know, except we won't kill each other or stab each other in the back. Kind of like Caesar's.

Thinking

Sorry about not having a picture. I've been thinking real hard lately, and I've decided that I'll post more regularly but have drawings mostly when I feel like it. That's the way life is, I guess. On to the real post.

I have done some thinking the past few weeks, as referenced in the above statements, and I've come to believe that I am not a ranker kind of person. I mean, GPA is real important and all, and I'll still go for the 4.0 (that's my goal) but I realized that I can't chase after something that for right now is impossible. I'm happy with whatever rank I get, because I try my hardest and so my grades will reflect it. But I have my moments of weakness, and that's mainly what I'm working on right now. As part of my dedication, I even built an MOC called Sloth, the Former King, as I continue to strive to become a better person, as a whole. My life quality drops every time I fall into a brood mood (when I try to think things out properly, you know?) but I'm hoping that there will be a long period between now and the next time I have to go face to face with my issues. Thanks for listening I guess. I have a list of good songs that helped me whenever I'm in a funk. I'll list them tmrw.

EDIT: Here we go. Only Time-Enya, Africa-Toto, Bridge over Troubled Water-Simon and Garfunkel, Perfect Day-Jim Jones, Forward Motion-Relient K, Move Along-All American Rejects, Get Through This-Art of Dying. Lemme know if you have any suggestions!
