Stop this Train!!!

Wasn't it just the other day, we were in diapers throwing dirt and falling down all the time? Wasn't it not too long ago that we were all awkwardly growing into ourselves and trying to hide our multi-colored braces? And then, like some dramatic realization moment form a
Scorsese flick, we are facing one of the biggest transition periods of our lives.
Elementary to middle school was hard, but more so just down right awkward. Middle to high school was pretty terrifying, but not as much as anticipated. But now, literally EVERYTHING is about to change. Don't get me wrong, I'm really excited about flying the nest. But that doesn't negate the fact that my life is zipping by at ludicrous speed. Friends are all going in different directions, and its starting to show (even in myself) that the ties that are holding us together are slowly being let go. I guess I'm just feeling really old and powerless.

So after my somewhat depressing rant, I'd like to end by saying lets make the best out of the time we have. Carpe Diem!!!

Drifting... Into Perfection!

Have you ever heard, seen, or smelled something that immediately made you stop everything that you were doing? The phenomenon that tickled your senses is so miraculous that for a moment or ten, you are submerged in complete bewilderment and appreciation for the capture of your mind.
Of the many things that entrance my senses, there is one that I want to write about. For those that know me, I love music. I love guitar especially, and when I hear a great guitar player, I tend to melt. But there is one man who astonishes me the most. AND NO, IT'S NOT EVEN JOHN MAYER!!!!!

This seemingly awkward, chubby, and impressively bearded man can PLAY! With his inspiring phalangical (that means finger) skills, you can't help but be amazed. Honestly, every time I watch him play, I find myself staring at the screen starry eyed with my mouth wide open. And of coarse, what is nothing less than thrilling, is always accompanied by a wave of jealousy and yearning for his ability. Seriously, go watch him on youtube right now. I've left a link below, but his other stuff is just as great. And after you check it out, tell me about some other things that leave you totally and completely dumbfounded and flabbergasted. It doesn't have to be musical. It could be food, movies, books; anything that makes you say "WOW!"

In the Beginning

So after reading one of my friends blogs for a little while (Cameron Purgahn butnowidigress.blogspot.com) I was inspired to start my own. I don't imagine that I'll have many important things to say, and if I do I'll probably misspell a lot of things. So if you read it, thank you. If not, you'll never see this so :P


P.S. If you google image search Destin McIntosh, this is what you'll see.

K thanks,
