every word weighs on me like its the last straw
one more time and im going to break
every word is too heavy for my withering heart to bear
and every time i hear that name i die a little more than i'd ever hoped i would

Monday, December 13, 2004

How am I supposed to feel about the things I've done?
I don't know if I should stay or turn around and run
I know that I hurt you, things will never be the same
The only love I ever knew, I threw it all away
And I can feel you breathing
And it's keeping me awake
Can you feel it beating?
My heart's sinking like a wave

Friday, December 10, 2004

you might as well just put all the lyrics from copeland in here...they all make me feel more and more emo by the minute...a constant reminder of the situation
wow a post?? lyrics, yes. but meaningful ones...are they ever other than that?

American Love

Exchanging Beauty For The Ashes
Given My Heart To Nothing Real
I've Given My Heart Away
To So Many Things
So Many Times I've Failed
Help Me Stop This Endless Cycle
Remind Me Of How It Can Be
Take Me Back I Surrender All
Without You My Heart Is Broken
I Never Should Have Let You Go
I Never Should Have Let You Slip
Through My Arms
As The Sun Sets Tonight
I'll Hold You With All That I Am
I Never Should Have Let You Go
Promise Me Youll Stay With Me Forever
Forever
Forgive Me
For Running So Quickly To The Outside

you wanted a post? here ya go

Last night I had a dream that we went to Disneyland, Went on all the rides, didn't have to wait in line. I drove you to your house where we stared up at the stars I listened to your heartbeat as I held you in my arms. We hung out at the rainbow where we drank til' half past two. Nothing could go wrong anytime that I'm with you. Like crashing a hotel room or leading up to that first kiss Or searching for a high school that you know doesn't exist... These are the things that make me free I feel like I'm stuck in "stand by me" This night was too good to be true. Today I woke up alone wishing you were here with me, I wanted us to be something that we'd probably never be. Today you called me up and said you'd see me at our show, But now I'm stuck debating if I even wanna go. [your name here], don't you understand that what I say is true? I just want you to know I have a major crush on you. I'd drive you to Las Vegas and do the things you wanna do I'd even have Wayne Newton dedicate a song to you. I only wish that this could be Just dump your boyfriend and go out with me I swear I'd treat you like a queen.

If I were you and you were me
And we were back in '93
We had it all and all was well
And this was where about I fell
But that was then, we could pretend
Our differences would be the end
I take it back, full-blown attack
Now it all just fades to black

I just wanna feel alive
Time goes flying by
Doodoo doodoo doodoo
Doodoo doodoo doodoo

If this is how it's gonna be
Then I might as well be free
If this is how you're gonna act
Then I just won't take you back
I knew you well, I knew you then
But now I can't seem to pretend
Where have we gone, It's been so long?

I just wanna feel alive
Time goes flying by

If I were you and you were me
And we were back in '93
We had it all and all was well
And this was where about I fell
I would've died, you never lied
Way before we even tried
And if I knew what we'd go through
Would I still be into you?
Still be into you?

I just wanna be happy
I just wanna be happy
I just wanna be happy here sometime

[The American Classic - Silent Drive]
i fucking love music. it is the most amazing creation ever to exist. the feelings you can convey. the amazingly wonderful time you can have while playing your heart out of your instrument in front of people. even better when its your best friends. i need to move more toward feeling the music and giving back what i feel during solos. be one with the bass. sounds lame. but you have to make the bass an extension of your heart. play what you fucking love.

i fucking love white lion...thanks shane...gettin me all back into the good rock

[Love Don't Come Easy - White Lion]
yeah...hah i like it

Hope dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption
Winding in and winding out
The shine ahead has caught my eye
And roped me in so mesmerizing
It's so hypnotizing
I am captivated
I am

Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I'm right
Swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now
The things you swore you saw yourself

So clear
Like the diamond in your ring
Cut to mirror your intention
Oversized and overwhelmed
The shine of which has caught my eye
And rendered me so
Isolated so
Motivated I am
Certain now that I am

Vindicated
I am selfish
I am wrong
I am right
I swear I'm right
Swear I knew it all along
And I am flawed
But I am cleaning up so well
I am seeing in me now
The things you swore you saw yourself

So tired of the corners of your lips
Part them and feel my finger tips
Trace the moment for forever
Defense is paper thin
Just one touch and I'd be in
Too deep now to ever swim
Against the current

So let me slip away
So let me slip against the current
So let me slip away

My hope dangles on a string
Like slow spinning redemption

man...i hate it when you tell a friend something in confidence, and then they go and tell only one other person because its "only one other person, it wont matter." they do the same and so on, and then every fucking person that doesnt need to know, now knows. and its even worse when i hear everyone talking about everyone behind their backs. i cant wait to get the fuck out of high school. most of the people suck

you have got to check this out!! this is the most insane looking bass i have ever seen! http://www.ritter-basses.com/ritter-basses-baesse/ritter-basses-jupiter.htm
haha...and i want it

Tuesday, May 25, 2004

i thought about it...and i really do have it all. my life right now is going so amazingly well. im loving it. im so happy. there's always stuff to be dealt with and i will deal with it *slash* figure it out when i get there. im having too much fun with life. my whole college career is paid for...either school i go to. im so lucky.
on another note. its interesting seeing people follow my exact footsteps from two years ago. bitching about the monotony of days, scarred by heartbreak, wanting to be alone. sound tracks to life. of course ive alwasy had a soundtrack to my life, since i was little. but i wish i could offer some advice of some sort. but there's nothing that will help. i did it on my own. so i dont know. seems like you need to change. your current attitude is lethal, and it must be overcome. its no way to live. if you want IM me and we'll talk about it.

other news, if you (someone in specific) read this, i did it because i missed the feeling of really doing it. really holding on. haha and its funny. no one has any idea of what im talking about.
but yeah, im living life to the fullest. got so much shit planned. jazz course at UMD over the summer (theyre paying for it, $2000), five day bike trip down the 185 mile C&O Canal with the UMD TENTS program, and canoe trip with andrew prolly in the Pine Barrens in New Jersey. fuck yeah. im happy. genuinely.

[Ordinary Story - In Flames]
shiiiit nobody's online...grrr...haha though it is 12:55..oh well. so i realized that every person's door's locks have their little ideosyncracies that the people who live there know about. like only having to turn it so far. turning it the right way. we know our own, but someone else'[s is impossible because you dont know what to do. youve never been ewxperienced wiht that lock system so you have no idea. damn schema making us look dumb. or maybe its just me thats really dumb. heh. so people always have to let you out and they look at you like you're crazy because you cant open a door. its harsh. now that i really think about it, i think im juist an idiot. haha and people are looking at me miiiighty funny...heh. ok time to go eat. then sleep. then....sleapt....food.

Here I go so dishonestly
Leave a note for you my only one
And I know you can see right through me
So let me go and you will find someone

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one

Made my mistakes, let you down
And I can't, I can't hold on for too long
Ran my whole life in the ground
And I can't, I can't get up when you're gone

And something's breaking up (breaking up)
I feel like giving up (like giving up)
I won't walk out until you know
I let go, there's just no one who gets me like you do

Broken this fragile thing now
And I can't, I can't pick up the pieces
And I've thrown my words all around
But I can't, I can't give you a reason

I feel so broken up (so broken up)
And I give up (I give up)
I just want to tell you so you know

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, there's just no one that gets me like you do
You are my only, my only one

Made my mistakes, let you down
And I can't, I can't hold on for too long
Ran my whole life in the ground
And I can't, I can't get up when you're gone

And something's breaking up (breaking up)
I feel like giving up (like giving up)
I won't walk out until you know

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, there's just no one who gets me like you do
You are my only my only one

Here I go so dishonestly
Leave a note for you my only one
And I know you can see right through me
So let me go and you will find someone

Here I go, scream my lungs out and try to get to you
You are my only one
I let go, there's just no one, no one like you
You are my only, my only one
My only one
My only one
My only one
You are my only, my only one

here's a place off Ocean Avenue
Where I used to sit and talk with you
We were both 16 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all night

There's a place on the corner of Cherry Street
We would walk on the beach in our bare feet
We were both 18 and it felt so right
Sleeping all day, staying up all night
Staying up all night

If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away

There's a piece of you that's here with me
It's everywhere I go, it's everything I see
When I sleep, I dream and it gets me by
I can make believe that you're here tonight
That you're here tonight

I remember the look in your eyes
When I told you that this was goodbye
You were begging me not tonight
Not here, not now
We're looking up at the same night sky
And keep pretending the sun will not rise
Be together for one more night
Somewhere, somehow

If I could find you now things would get better
We could leave this town and run forever
I know somewhere, somehow we'll be together
Let your waves crash down on me and take me away

well sunday afternoon there was a rehearsal for the musicians playing at the confirmation mass...my mom, the pianist, guitarist, and me. It was fun and good challenge musically. so the guitarist really liked how i played apparently because he called tonight and wanted me to play at his mass on sunday mornings. i would have been happy to. but my family would disown me. also he called and talked to my mom about it and she of course said no right off the bat without even consulting me. that was kind of annoying...really annoying. now i dont know if i want to do it or not. its a wonderful feeling that someone enjoyed my playing, playing with me, and respects me as a musician that they would like me back sometime. its amazing to know that. not to mention they are a good 40 years older than me. i need some advice. my parents totally would not want me there. and i would have to get up at like 7:30. but its playing music. and i enjoy the music aspect of it. aside from the "worshiping" side of it, or providing ministry to a priest i never particularly liked. its music. its what i love. its what i do and plan to do the rest of my life. hah. might as well be married to music. i love it in sickness and health. ok now im startign to sound crazy. just thought id bitch a bit in here. since apparently i dont do anything exciting :P.

weird but im going to babble...seems nice how experience is so wonderful and adventurous. the excitement from a new style, or new route...exploration "instinct" drives humans. it forces us to discover and learn. new views of your environment are wondrous. you think you know the surrounings of your home like the back of your hand. you know you all have those days where youre sitting staring through your window across the street or in the baclkyard. you do it for so long and so often that you truly know every minute detail of the outside world at every time of day. you know if something is out of place and when life through you looks right. but when you change position to somewhere whose image youve never seen from your window, you can see the brilliance of new experiences. or maybe im an creature of morbid routine. life is for experiencing the most pleasant, adn sometimes unpleasant events. its all an eexperience that adds to our own personal legacy on earth. did you do what you enjoyed? are you happy with the way you lived your life? was it to the fullest? life's goal is to reach all the points where you can then say yes to all the previous quesitons. experience makes us who we are. never go trhough life saying always and never. do what you think is dangerous. experince the thrill of something new that may be completely innocent. life is for living. and your dreams can help you live in the direction you want. all you have to do is try. no i need to believe that and we'll be good.

Rationals, are the problem solving temperament, particularly if the problem has to do with the many complex systems that make up the world around us. Rationals might tackle problems in organic systems such as plants and animals, or in mechanical systems such as railroads and computers, or in social systems such as families and companies and governments. But whatever systems fire their curiosity, Rationals will analyze them to understand how they work, so they can figure out how to make them work better.

In working with problems, Rationals try to find solutions that have application in the real world, but they are even more interested in the abstract concepts involved, the fundamental principles or natural laws that underlie the particular case. And they are completely pragmatic about their ways and means of achieving their ends. Rationals don't care about being politically correct. They are interested in the most efficient solutions possible, and will listen to anyone who has something useful to teach them, while disregarding any authority or customary procedure that wastes time and resources.

Rationals have an insatiable hunger to accomplish their goals and will work tirelessly on any project they have set their mind to. They are rigorously logical and fiercely independent in their thinking--are indeed skeptical of all ideas, even their own--and they believe they can overcome any obstacle with their will power. Often they are seen as cold and distant, but this is really the absorbed concentration they give to whatever problem they're working on. Whether designing a skyscraper or an experiment, developing a theory or a prototype technology, building an aircraft, a corporation, or a strategic alliance, Rationals value intelligence, in themselves and others, and they pride themselves on the ingenuity they bring to their problem solving.

Rationals are very scarce, comprising as little as 5 to 10 percent of the population. But because of their drive to unlock the secrets of nature, and to develop new technologies, they have done much to shape our world.

dual humbuckers, abalone block inlays. it was my perfect bass...just it fell short...why couldnt it just play beautifully too?? guuuh. ill just use the $1200 for something else thats more worthwhile..like adding some more money to the upright purchase that my parents cant fully afford...or the 6-string i wanted and know plays and sounds good having tried one already..or buying new pickups for my current bass...which could use some hum-cancelling. good ol stacked pickups being wired in reverse so that all hum is eliminated. bleh. its a sad day. very sad.

less than jake medly
Welcome home outcasts
Because I know how you have
Felt over the years
The truth is that
Looking at me is like
Looking in the mirror
And I know how it feels
To be the best part
Of a running joke
To all of your friends

And to be on the edge of your bed
With your head buried in your hands
Wishing that everything would end
I know how it feels to be the loneliest

Welcome back outcasts
Because I've told myself
That it would be alright
Probably about a million times
Over every minute of all of my life
I know how it feels
To be so confused
That you're so far out of control

And to be on the edge of your bed
With your head buried in your hands
Wishing that everything would end
I know how it feels to be the loneliest

So you sit and wait for a sign
That the coming days will be alright
And you drink
So you can forget another night
Bruised from the blackouts
And your blood red eyes
Try to start looking
For the brighter side
Wait for a sign
Welcome home
Everything will be alright

And I know how it feels
To be the best part
Of a running joke all of your life

I've come to my senses,
That I've become senseless,
I could give you lessons on how to ruin your friendships,
Every last conviction, I smoked them all away,
I drank my frustrations down the drain, out of the way,
So I sit and wait and wonder,
"Does anyone else feel like me?"
Someone so tired of their routines and disappearing self-esteems,

I'll sing along,
Yeah with every emergency,
Just sing along,
I'm the king of catastrophies,
I'm so far gone,
That deep down inside I think it's fine by me,
I'm my own worst enemy

I could be an expert on co-dependency,
I could write the best book on underage tragedy,
I've been spending my time at the local liquor store,
I've been sleeping nightly on my best friends kitchen floor,
So I sit and wait and wonder,
"Does anyone else feel like me?"

[soundtrack to the post: Ghosts Of You And Me - Less Than Jake]

bleh...i kinda feel aimless and a bit unsure...so im going to stop this whole everything as sex thing. i dont like being so predictable. and apparently people say that im not to be believed. which is very disconcerting. so ill probably just stop talking unless i know what im talking about. i dont like being called an idiot, or dumb, or stupid, or just "oh thats trevor for you." for some reason i really dont like that. so, no more of that from me. we'll see what happens.
i wish i knew about scholarships and college acceptance. everyone else seems to be finding out except for me. i could really use the money...thought i probably wont win. bleh.
so im going to audition for the navy band. maybe ill get into that. and thatd be my job. playing music as my duty. i could be stationed in anacostia, go to school at UMD and the navy would pay for it, provided i get in. then i get $15,000/yr though if i do it, i have to stay for four years. which would be interesting, i dont know if i would want to do that for four years. though i could get training for nuclear engineering and start out at $60,000/yr after 2 yrs of training that the navy pays for...aaah too many options. life needs to be a little less complicated.

from window there is a view of the same things i see everyday. but there's a certain pleasant quality to seeing the same things everyday. hearing the birds sing, feeling the brisk morning air on your face. there's something invigorating about life. seeing the dead trees adn the partially cloudy skiy, hell i sound like a weather forecaster. i see the shadows of trees cast by the early morning sun. it is good to ponder things, though not too much, as that will lead to overanalyzation and distress. i prefer to keep my mind moving. i dont want to think about my inferiority complex, or the mental block, or mindset, or my odd refusal to be proud that i am a good musician. hm life is intriguing. im back to bed.

Congratulations, Trevor!
Your IQ score is 129

This number is the result of a formula based on how many questions you answered correctly on Emode's Classic IQ test. Your IQ score is scientifically accurate; to read more about the science behind our IQ test, click here.

During the test, you answered four different types of questions — mathematical, visual-spatial, linguistic and logical. We analyzed how you did on each of those questions which reveals how your brain uniquely works.

We also compared your answers with others who have taken the test. According to the sorts of questions you got correct, we can tell your Intellectual Type is a Visionary Philosopher.

This means you are highly intelligent and have a powerful mix of skills and insight that can be applied in a variety of different ways. Like Plato, your exceptional math and verbal skills make you very adept at explaining things to others — and at anticipating and predicting patterns. And that's just some of what we know about you from your IQ results.
SteelWings
You have wings of STEEL. No one's really
sure why, but at this point in your life you've
shut off emotion to the point of extreme
apathy. You are cold and indifferent much of
the time...or perhaps you're just a good
pretender. Next to impossible to get close to,
even those who do never see the real you. It's
entirely possible that YOU don't even know the
real you. You have a certain fascination or
attraction to destruction on a massive scale -
disasters, perhaps even death or the concept of
the Apocalypse. Because you hold so much
inside, one day you're simply going to snap.
Then the mask will fall away, and your true
wings will be revealed. Until then you will
deal with whatever comes your way in icy bitter
silence and acceptance. On the positive side,
you are fearless and immeasurably strong - not
much can crack through your defenses. You
intrigue people, who can't help but wonder why
you're the way you are. A loner and one who
spends much of their time brooding and
contemplating life and death - you are a time
bomb waiting to explode and create some
destruction of your own.

Drones since the dawn of time
Compelled to live your sheltered lives
Not once has anyone ever seen
Such a rise of pure hypocracy
I'll instigate I'll free your mind
I'll show you what I've known all this time

God Hates Us All, God Hates Us All
You know it's true God hates this place
You know it's true he hates this race

Homicide-Suicide
Hate heals, you should try it sometime
Strive for Peace with acts of war
The beauty of death we all adore
I have no faith distracting me
I know why your prayers will never be answered

God Hates Us All; God Hates Us All
He Fuckin' hates me

Pessimist, Terrorist targeting the next mark
Global chaos feeding on hysteria
Cut throat, slit your wrist, shoot you in the back fair game
Drug abuse, self abuse searching for the next high
Sounds a lot like hell is spreading all the time
I'm waiting for the day the whole world fucking dies

I never said I wanted to be God's disciple
I'll never be the one to blindly follow

Man made virus infecting the world
Self-destruct human time bomb
What if there is no God would you think the fuckin' same
Wasting your life in a leap of blind faith
Wake the fuck up can't ignore what I say
I got my own philosophy

I hate everyone equally
You can't tear that out of me
No segregation -separation
Just me in my world of enemies

I never said I wanted to be God's disciple
I'll never be the one to blindly follow
I'll never be the one to bear the cross-disciple

I reject this fuckin' race
I despise this fuckin' place

yaaaay i dont get any money for college! my parents make too much money but its all tied up in debt. the FAFSA expects us to be able to contribute $20,000 a year..hah, right.
go making too much money. so im out of the running for any need based scholarships...oh wait, thats all of them. fuck it. who needs college anyway?

Wednesday, January 21, 2004

so today was a great great day. i got my SAT scores...600 math and 630 verbal...im psyched! 1230. up 100 points...not taht much but i surpassed my goal of 1200. i sold one of my guitars yesterday and got $100 for it (twice the amount i paid for it) and sold some pedals and cymbals today. with some of the money, i bought new strings. piccolo bass strings are fucking awesome. theyre .050-.040-.030-.020in (E-A-D-G respectively) [normal strings are .045-.065-.085 -.105in] theyre an octave higher than normal strings and sound liek a guitar and bass playing at the same time. its magical. and i got some light gauge strings (.040-.090) and its amazing what a few thousandths of an inch will do to playability. i can play Linus and Lucy with such ease now...though that could be do to much practicing....but the strings do help. leeeets see....only three day week. score. tomorrow is the last day. time to relax and chill with you. im getting all A's again. lets see...trying to think what else is going on....im probably forgetting lots of stuff...but meh...today was positively great :) ok time for sleep...cos now i dont have to wake up at 6am. thank god. heh. java is fun but not so much fun as to waant to be at school at 7am. im crazy...and a geek..haha. out.

uuugh....fuckin sore throat....woke me up at like 6:30 and i cant get back to sleep....mayebsome chloraseptic then to try again...:(
if it makes you less wrong id have to say youre lying
those dime a dozen blood red sunsets cant save you now
its time to save face and steer clear of me and you know it
cos next time i see you youre going down in the 1st
and we're all betting youll never get up again
the sky never looked so real through the trees
and i could still wish i had never met you
30 weeks of bloodshot eyes
too many nights of fights i always lost
youre too good at lying and i never had a comeback
matchbook romances are the worst
and youre easily the worst thing to happen to me
every day is a new day i wish ill hear of failure
every day i hope youve died

Fret spacing is determined by the "18 rule" (actually, it is
more like 17.817). The fret spacing is in calculated as
follows:

The distance to the first fret from the nut is calculated by
dividing the total scale length by 17.817. For a 25 1/2 in.
scale...

25.5 / 17.817 = 1.431273 (or 1.431)

That result is then subtracted from the total scale length...

25.5 - 1.431 = 24.069

That result is divided by 17.817 to get the distance from the
first fret to the second...

24.069 / 17.817 = 1.351

and so on.

Trevor in Penultimate Fantasy
With unprecedented grace, this breathtaking tale, set in wartorn Poland in 1940, takes a look at students, Trevor (Haley Joel Osment) and Courtney (Michelle Trachtenberg), who discover themselves deeply in love when an evil scheme is dreamed up by his neglected brother-in-law, Ryan (Daryl Sabara). The lack of storyline coherences allows ample time for you to kiss people.

i never really write in here anymore. so for all of you who check this regularly, this will be a treat. lets see...ive been unusually stressed recently. but that has all passed. my audition date for UMD school of music is Jan. 31 at 2:45....which i may not have a ride to but meh. ill get there somehow. my bass is coming soon. well sorta. it will be ready Feb. 12 at the latest. so i should have it in about a month. a month too long but it will be soooo nice once it gets here. for anyone that cares its a Carvin LB70P with blue burst finish on AAAA quilt maple top, rounded body sides for a smooth sleek look, and abalone block inlays. Dual HB4 (musicman) humbuckers with piezo bridge pickups and active electronics provide a plethora of sound combinations with 3 (technically 8) pickups and 2 blend knobs, i shall never know all the sounds possible from the bass. its gorgeous ($1162.99). ok back to what im up to. i find myself praciting up to 4 hours a day for my audition and hey it pays off. i picked up a piece on monday night and can play it nearly flawlessly. its superb. im playing "Portrait of Tracy" by Jaco Pastorious, Invention #1 in C major by Bach (so awesome), my own solo piece i wrote that employs multiple voicings, and "Linus and Lucy" by Vince Guarldi arranged by Stu Hamm. I have 2 weels from tomorrow to continue working on these and i will have them perfect or as close to as humanly possible by then. oh yeah. so that was stressing....getting all my applications in even though they were after the deadline. thanks a lot to lucy's mom who pretty much got me the chance to get in. hmm so i may take a max of 5 AP tests at the end of the year. depends. im going to take Psych and Bio and English. not sure about Calc and Chem. depends on how i do and how well i review my chem. 4s all around is my goal. though, 70/119 and 40 wrong for the mutiple choice, 23/50 points in the free response = a 4 on the AP Bio. so i think i will get a 5. no doubt. hmmm yes i shoudl read more. after my audition i plan to. or read psych. i need more time to read. but i play so much music its hard to find time. being at school at 7 on tuesdays and wednesdays is going to suck but its needed. i get up at 6:45 anyway. so 6:15 wont be too bad. afterall i go to bed when you do, and usually before 10 cos im a dork and tired as shit. heh. hmmmmmmmmmmmm what else. la la. tired. time for bed. night all.
