Do i look pudgy in that picture? I swear, i’m not pudgy… of course, with me eating meat again now there’s no telling what kind of weight i’ll balloon to. Actually, i’ll probably gain a few pounds and then drop a lot, because i’ll theoretically cut a lot of needless carbohydrates out of my diet. This summer was, like, 24/7 carbs. Yuck… after awhile you don’t get any more energy out of them, they just settle onto your ass.
all the beautiful hair is gone, and my nose is actually much bigger than that if you’re not looking at it head on. oh yeah, and i’m not that cute. otherwise, that’s an accurate representation of me.
Sus just took one look at my infamously cute Orientation picture and said “whos this eddie-vedder looking mutha?” I dunno what that’s supposed to make me feel… but, i have chopped off my hair since then, so the resemblance should be gone. Damn, i ought to have a webcam…. lemme try to make the picture a little smaller so i can post it.
No more cheddar ramen, ever. I’ve been doing some pretty shitty sounding trios, and it’s starting to bother me. It makes me seem like some self-important un-talented fuck who is pretentious enough to think that people care to listen to him sing out of key. But i’m not, really. It’s just that without a dorm full of friends to play a few songs for every week i am rapidly leaving my guitar on the sidelines, and this allows me to do a little performance. Furthermore, i can’t play the same song all the time, because it would get boring, so it’s incentive for me to keep working on new songs that i would typically ditch in favour of another repetition of “Crashing.” And, finally, keep in mind that i’m just recording through the teeny mic in my computer, and that i’m doing a live take with no stops or pickups. You might point out that doing a concert is at least that hard, but for me playing in front of people is the most comforting thing in the world. Being alone in this room with the computer… now that’s intimidating.
Ditched that outfit totally. Now i look rugged…. err… as rugged as i get. I have some real image issues, don’t i? I just don’t think it’s fair that a guy either has to wear jeans and a t-shirt, or khakis and a button down. I like originality, damnit!
