Acoustic Guitar @ MindSay

Good mood, bad mood, good mood, it seems to be fluctuating today, but as of right this moment, I'm in a good mood. I guess it's a difference of certain things I hear throughout the day, but I think this good mood is going to stick today. The past few days, I've started picking up writing some music for the first time in a few months to be honest. In fact.. I've spent many hours of the last few days just coming up with ideas. I've had this rhythm in my head for ages, and I couldn't think of a melody to put it to, but I guess I got some recent inspiration, and came out with a pretty decent result so far. I clunked out the notes on a guitar a few days ago, but since I have no way of actually recording the guitar, I just composed the song on my computer, and tried to make the guitar sound as realistic as possible. Here is the link to download the song (Pretty please download it and give me some thoughts):

Belle

This song was actually written for and inspired by my new friend monkeycookie , there's something about her that really got my creative juices flowing. This song when I wrote it is at first just the basic chord chart I use for the rhythm guitar, and then I throw in a melody at the very end, I don't know if I will add more to the song eventually, but I am liking the product so far. This song makes me think about almost a heavenly sensation of happiness. The image I had in mind when I wrote it was the ability to see an angel flying through the heavens just as the sun is hitting the right angle, and bringing joy to everyone through its happiness. That angel might very well be you Monkey. :]

Please download the song my friends and give me some feedback! It's a very short song, and I really want to know what people think. I really sincerely hope you enjoyed this surprise Monkey, it doesn't measure up to your surprise for me, but I worked really hard on this so far. (I'm sure my roommate is sick of hearing it)

Switching to a different tangent, I'm trying to stay in contact with my family more, and build a stronger relationship with them. We never really had a super strong relationship, and I guess I want that to improve. I called my house today, and my dad picked up. We chatted for a good while, but it made me really bummed out to hear he's very sick. My dad never gets sick! He hasn't been able to go to work since Monday, and apparently his eyes hurt too badly for him to do his work effectively. :[ I called again right after to tell him about when my spring break was and stuff because I forgot, and I guess he had a surprise in store he forgot to tell me about. My dad is going to help me out with getting a new car, and I'm getting a 2006 Honda Civic! :] It's burgundy, and should look something like this:

i started shopping for a new acoustic guitar today. it was the most fun i'd had in awhile. i went to foxtone and brickhouse and i'm probably going to guitar center... later today? my brother's been looking at drums, too so he goes with me. i can't wait to buy one.

hmmm. i ate at chili's yesterday. my brother ate my burger and i had some fries and 3 glasses of coke. that wasn't very fun but, whatever. bleh.

my friend sarah is having a party tomorrow for her 16th birthday. it's going to be a nice little party with a few friends and her family. i got her a nerf dart shooter and some mix CDs i made. i'm nervous about the party cuz i'll be the youngest one there. i hate being the little one.

Alright...I've packed pretty much all my stuff...heading out tomorrow.

Today was eh. Sitting in the house all day with my family can drive you insane, which is not good since I already am so. Anyway, I want a guitar!! That's gonna be my new obsession I think (besides Jimi Hendrix) 'Cause my bro has a video camera, and he recorded me singing Redemption Song by Bob Marley. I was thinking, "Damn, I wish OI had a guitar to play along to this." So next time we go to Walmart I'm getting an Acoustic Guitar. I wasted $6.00 today on food that was ba quality. That's how I waste money. The food looks so enticing plus I'm an impulse buyer. That's why I usually don't carry money with me. Castles Made of Sand by Jimi Hendrix is an awesome song. I'm taking my natural hair wearing even furhter, I am no longer putting anything into my hair contaning petroleum or mineral oil, and I'm not using shampoo or conditioner anymore. (Don't say ew, my hair is still clean, and I don't need to put chemicals in my hair for it to be clean/look nice) It is part of my self-revolution. I am trying to rid my body inside and out of artificial products. If it wasn't here when humans first arrived, then it is not necessary for life.
