'Day 8...'

To my favorite internet friend-

We barely know each other yet, you challenge me with new words- some of which I never knew the meaning to. You're not a facebook, myspace or twitter friend. Just a wordfeud opponent and that's probably the best part! You're not all hype over who said what and why, you just wanna play scrabble on the phone...

Super dope!

No stress. No assumptions, just words.

Just the game. It's refreshing.

Thank you!

Tracks...

Finished a track today! Although I was very excited, I had a little difficulty with the 'life' of the music.

Sometimes, you may try so hard to get the tempo and lyrics down, that you forget the emotion in a piece. It's okay! It happens.

My best suggestion is to remember where those lyrics came from. Remember when you wrote them down and what you were feeling like. Then lay that THANG down!! :)

Anyway, the track is called 'Summer' and, it will be on a new mixtape by Joseph Hallman! An extremely talented classical composer, teacher and performer. He's also from my hometown, PHILADELPHIA!! Check his site HERE.

And remember, LIFE!

Day 7...

Day 7 is to the Ex.

While it's easy to place blame for how my life is currently shaped, I won't. Because you're no longer apart of it...

However, I will say that the aftermath of 9 years has not been pleasant. I mean, damn! I've been alone, involved, happy, sad; and through all these stages in life, I've managed to blame myself completely. Clearly there were two people involved and clearly, both of those people had issues that we couldn't overlook.

As selfish as it may sound, I no longer care about you. That's my way of dealing. The disadvantage(s) of that mentality has adversely affected current relationships. By relationships, I mean intimate and otherwise. Relationships dealing with my family, friends and the significant other.

But I'm still not mad with you. I still can't wrap my logic around what others think should be the definition of blame. We're adults, and we must deal with life and the way it has come to be. I refuse to use our past as a crutch because all that matters is today and tomorrow.

I wish you the best in yours, Sincerely.

Happy New Year...

After finally getting settled in, I figured out what my solid resolution will continuously be. Over the past couple of years, I have seen my own growth and have also attempted to prove it to others. No more. If the change is real, it will show.

I took a much need walk today. After being sick for almost two weeks, the sun on my face and the cold air hitting my skin was much needed. My 'sick days' definitely did not help with inspiration or work...

Which leads me to my resolution: to look in the mirror. Yea, easier said than done for me. Simply put- to attack myself with motivation before I can even imagine inspiring others. Sometimes, we need to put the fire under our own asses before we take the torch outside.

Let 2011 begin!
