My World (point whoa)
by R. Faires
SO many things to throw on the ground,
like this or this or that and even this, I’M AN ADULLLLTTTT!!!!
I am extremely excited to graduate. Somewhere in the bible something is said like: live your life to the fullest while you’re young, and don’t take your adolescent years 4 granted, because you will be old before you know it.
I have enjoyed my time as a high school student, but my lifestyle is contoured more towards college life.
As a homeschooler, I have had the comfort of my home as a school place, and I have also had the comfort of slacking off a bit on some subjects. I think college will help straighten me out (or use these talents for my benefit) to become a better student.
It’s a big time in my life, my fellow senior’s lives, and my family’s life.
I’m going to take advantage of this maturation point to…mature. A clean slate is a good thing. All of the screw-ups are forgotten. I want to be looked at differently; i’m a different person.
sarcasm, gossip, and language are things all teenagers struggle with, but it’s time for people to straighten up. I was not, and you are not put on this earth to cuss and hate on people.
I think all of those rappers have it right (…to a certain extent) nobody likes haters.
With my graduating and Matt + others graduating, I feel (and he probably does too) that there needs to be more people, I don’t want to say like us, but…like us. Kind of the way we had to become who we are after people like Matt, Joel, and Aaron left. Jered and Tammy leaving wasn’t easy either for LACOC.
pray for the kids.
On a lighter note (of the lightsaber) I am about to send in some demo CD’s to record labels!
Only Very rarely (very, veeeeery rarely) do bands get signed on straight from a demo cd, so I’m not really expecting a contract, but I am hoping for some feedback. Most likely I will hear stuff like “play some shows and build up your fanbase,” and “work on your sound, and make it your own.” Which I am cool with. I just want some professional opinions, and who knows, if I get lucky I just might get a really cool offer and/ or scholarship! IDK!!?!?!?!?!
my stuff is going to labels like: 4AD, JAGJAGUWAR, subpop, and maybe XL and Rough Trade records.
Btw, The music of James Blake is the ultimate chill-out music. Long car drive, walks outside, and morning coffee-time music.
He’s truly awesome.
Yours truly, rapper, songwriter, leader, follower, teacher, Totem-spirit house cat, and Jedi knight…
