Song of the Day

Hot Hot Heat -Bandages

Thought of the Morning

I was asked the other day, when was the moment that I was just happy? I answered with no hesitation, "when I went on a trip to Massachusetts, to see my girlfriend at the moment!" See, when I landed and drove out to her school to see her I was so excited to see her my heart was beating in a rapid rate. After driving around for an hour I met up with her at a crosswalk. My eyes lit up at the sight of her and this feeling that I can not describe just rushed over me of great joy. That is one moment where I was just...happy!

Lesson One

So here is a little video of the first song I had to learn on only one month of lessons. Mind you I am horrible and not trying to wake anyone up in the house while I was doing this. I hope you guys are loving me making an ass of myself?!

Untitiled

Felt the need to write something, so this plopped out!

Right the wrongs of the past
with our present conveniences
herald the trumpets
to beckon our return
the truth is upon us
together we will know
together we will never depart

Another Thief for the Thievery

Thievery Corporation was amazing last night. The lights, music, friends, were just perfect. I have not enjoyed myself out at a concert for quite sometime now. On my feet through the whole concert made my leg turn to mush...maybe as well that I worked before the concert as well added to it. I need more concerts....MOAR!

Untitled Poem

looking into you
i see endless possibilities
if only my heart could be brave
and my lips follow its lead
everything would be perfect
as if spring rose from the floor boards
for now still stricken
stricken by the beauty you exude
i feel i won't be able
able to be with you
till that time comes around
i'll step closer to you
open my mouth
"hello"

Random Tid Bits

Me: I want to get this thing you put up by the wall that holds all my books and has planks you stack them up on.

Co-Worker: You mean a bookshelf?!

Me: In a word...Yes!

Me: ...

Let me clarify this a bit. I can be pretty descriptive about simple things cause I plainly just forget the word. Happens more than I feel comfortable saying. Funny none-the-less when it happens and I end up giving a description for a bookshelf.

Great Question!

Went over to a friends tonight. We started talking about where we thought we would be at this age? I looked at him and told him honestly...I've always thought I would be dead. In a way it has hampered me. Walking around with this big death wish, while not really wishing it. Now, things are really going to change. Life needs to be lived and now at this age I am going to be whatever I am supposed to be...a bad musician!!!!! heeheehee!

Mobile Bits

I look at my hands as if they are mirrors, reflecting your touch.

Love For That Thing That Makes Your Ears Feel Sad!

I like to hear crappy music. Why you ask? Well, someone sat down and said I am going to make this type of music and it is going to be awesome. Minus the awesome, someone made it. I applaud that they did something and from there figure out exactly what was on the singer/singers mind. I need more bad music. I think the perfect woman would have the same feeling towards bad music...seriously! Whatever I make is definitely bad music. Well, bad music to popular masses. Maybe today I will spend it making a totally "AWESOME" song!

Dream Capture

For the brief moment my eyes closed last night I had a dream...after god knows how long. And here we go:

It started off with me waking up at an ex's house. Haven't been there in awhile. Figured we had probably gotten hammered the night before. I ran into the ex's parents while walking towards the ex's room, which we exchange pleasantries. The father goes on to offer me an old pictures frame that he had since he was in the war. From that point we talked about war. After that moment we headed to what seemed to be a weird living room, from there I do not remember much than staring deep into my ex's eyes and waking up. Her eyes seemed very sad when I looked in them.

That's all...I know very uninteresting, but then again I don't dream much!

Song of the Day

311 - Love Song

Thought of the Morning

When you are truthful you end up not sleeping for another night.

Tipsy So What You Think of That?

You grow apart but still feel something burning. May not be much, but still there. I never can understand when you fall in love with someone, it ends and you still feel the same after the fact...when you see them! Damn, how you wish it can all just go away. Yet, beautiful still that you ever felt that way for someone before. Love, love, damn love, you know how to play me and make me, shake me, brake me, and re-create me! I feel like writing a love song to love. Maybe I will...peace!

Grim Reapn'

"I feel like death is fucking calling me", best said by Biggie. I start with that cause currently I feel that way. Accidents that have been happening to me. All I can do is laugh. Nervous tick. I have been wondering what would it be like to die. What is on the other side, you know! Is heaven real? Or, will I wake to another existence...NAH! I wonder, is death calling for my number? Car accidents, body doing crazy shit, getting into confrontations, and so it goes. Damn, I am just blabbing. Sorry, I am going to end it here.

Works from the Little Green Moleskine

Written during a night out at PS14.

No words can be used
hand signals, and stomps
Can this be what the elders spoke of
Love gone most a rye
Fooled thought of forever
Eyes blaring through a cloud of smoke
Devil's drink arrogates the worlds senses
The end of all that commences
Stomp and flail
You're still gone
My heart...still frail

Works from the Little Green Moleskine

So, this new headline is going to be works from my different Moleskine. Notably, my little green one! Here is a little something I wrote during the week at a friends house in North Miami Beach, while staring at her ceiling.

Write me a letter, simple, and true.
Mail it to last year, when our love truly bloomed.
Signed "forever till today". Oh, what a day!
You're gone now and I have forgotten how to be with you.
It's okay life goes on anyway.
I'll write myself a letter, addressed to tomorrow.
Hope the next gets it with no delay!

Months Later

I've been going through a roller-coaster of emotion the past couple of months. Not knowing what to expect from myself. I've disappointed and impressed myself...at the same time. Quite odd really. Lets not deter ourselves I have very little time to compress everything to catch you up on, "you" being everyone I imagine actually looks at my want-to-be blog.

Start Act I: I have started picking up voice lessons. I love the release of it. Being closed up for 16 years from singing and now exhaling all that built up dudgeon, exasperation. God, I love it...though my throat does not. It'll get over it.

Act 2: I've been keeping my head in books. Many books. Things I should have read years ago really. Well time flies, and I have found my gun. All and all it has gone pretty productive.

Act 3: Still building my own fashion sense. From the look of it, it's going well! I have more confidence when I am out. I feel better as a person cause I am all cleaned up.

That is all for now...I can definitely expand on all three more, but I just don't have the time right now. We'll see if later on I can right some more. Chao!

PS: I am also learning French!

What the Mind Does to Simple Concepts (Poem)

Quite an old writing of mine. Felt it needed to be put out there:

when you feel as though there's no you or me, but us. so strong a feeling to be lost in a eternal ballet of human emotion. castrates the sedimentary process of psycho analogy to re-theorize our mere existence. a process so antagonistic of it's own purpose it defeats its own residual purpose. the us factor. intelligently created to immobilize the thought process from actual realization. endo-chromatic beacons of emotion play elaborate pieces, unfiltered to our minds. in short...i still feel you

Incontrovertible

Our laughs fade into morrows' embrace
As we vociferate our vows of hate
I stand in an incontestable rate
"Don't leave me in the rain"
Last words derived from a minuet vernacular
She went on morrows'
No more

-jairo

I might add more later...we'll see!
