an update because now i want to write
I take solace in knowing that I can always write for free, since the paper is an ocean. I don’t think I am in love right now, but today I played music all day long. I skipped one and a half classes and it felt right. I am not sure if I will feel the same way when I wake up. I have programs to write and things to think about, but exploration is not about thinking. If one had tried to explain this to me before college, I would not have understood at all. I recently came up with an idea that people stop changing because they stay in one spot. In the same area with the same people and the same feeling.

I was so happy with playing music today, and how it sounded. I had the best jam session I have ever had by myself and made some sounds and got an idea for a psychedelic guitar riff and played it up there for at least thirty minutes while I endured school and walked home but I don’t understand how to make the guitar sound to make it feel like the 60s. I don’t see myself ever really needing more guitar pedals except maybe a phaser. But I don’t think I need one for a while. This weekend I got a synth wah pedal and a fucking sick tremolo pedal and those will set me for a while. There is just so much rad music shit out there to trade money for. I don’t need them but they are fun to use. Sean and I jammed on guitars and drums today…that is, one jam of us on guitars and Laura on drums, one jam of Sean on guitar and me on drums, one jam of Sean on drums and me on guitar. Playing actual guitar into guitar pedals is fucking sick. We decided to live together again today and I’m pretty stoked. We’re going to aim for a Cloyne double with two rooms, put both beds in the same room, and turn the back room into a music room. I’m fucking stoked. And speaking of stoked, my dad is getting me a bike as an early birthday gift, and I’m going to take it to Iowa with me this summer to explore. Laura showed me a band today that’s going to play in Ames while I’m there. It’s really good pop music: www.myspace.com/frenchquartermusic. Campfire show in SC this Friday with good friends and possibly next Tuesday in Oakland with stag hare with new friends.

Also, yesterday I talked with ryan swanson for a long time about travel. He’s gotten to do a lot. He went to Argentina and Mexico for a really long time and he’s going to China for a year next year. I really want to go to finland. On Sunday I spent at least two hours using the internet to seriously consider moving there for a while. I may travel there but I do not think I will live there unless my mind changes some more, which it will tomorrow, so maybe I will live there tomorrow. I know that you all are well and don’t finish
