Well well well......... Hahahahahahaha.
back! Well, not really. I just wanted to see if i could remember the password and username. guess I did. Maybe I'll update as well.

So whats new... hrm. well if you were an avid reader of this blog.. and refused to read anything else.. then it would be too much to explain.. but then again, if you read nothing but my old assed blog, then you best kill yourself b/c there's something seriously wrong with you.

anyways,

Whats new in the news... hrm...

1. Almost done school: Five weeks left.. .. then i am finished.. and then i'm in a shitty spot.. b/c then i'll have no more metis cheques to get me by. Which ultimately means getting a job.. I'm not very good at that. I dont' wanna work in a kitchen...:( and i don't wanna cut my hair and take out my peircings... i really don't... ah well. i have 5 more weeks of putting this idea into the back of my head.

2. In the world of music: This is fucked. I've been trying for the past 4 years to get a band going, with no luck. Supposed to jam with tonnes of folk... never happened. I was getting quite discouraged. Then this summer... well more specifically, these past few months, lots of opportunities. Once pete gets his bass rigged back up, i'm supposed to jam with him, which would be really fucking cool. I'm supposed to meet up with some chick that does ballet and wants to do some kinda psychobilly thing, which could be really cool. I've been jamming with pike, and thats been going really well, something will definately come from this I think. We played together before, so it's not hard for us to get to the same page quickly, we just need to organize.. which is easier said than done, and finally, I got asked to try out for the position of 'Bowel Slugger' for Eliese's ex-beau's band Wohedness. So i 'auditioned' haha.. well not really but i jammed with the guitarist.. or well.. 'blasted' in their language, and I think it turned out well, i learned three of the songs from their released album, and tomorrow he's coming back to run through them again, and on friday I get to jam with them in the jamspot with their drummer, if all goes well there, then hopefully i'll get the job. haha.

now this is crazy. I can remember when i was uneasy around john, mainly b/c he is my girls ex, and they were together for almost 5 years... and well, i guess my human instinct said uh-oh to having him around, or when they hung out... irrational and crazy of me? well yeah.. but i never claimed to be sane.. but as he came around more.. well we started to get along, and now I don't mind him around at all, he's a funny guy. This is also extremely funny to me b/c i'm not a huge fan of death/grind metal... the gutteral vocals and 'grind' drums used to bother the fuck outta me. i'm a little snot nosed punker.. not a metalhead or whatever. but when it comes right down to it... music is music, and well.. i must admit.. it grows on ya.. haha. I've been listening to the Wohedness cd over the last week, and it's good shit.. I'm lookin' foward to jammin' out on it. I'll make sure to keep posted on the progress of it all, and if it all works out.

3. 1,500 sheep commit suicide.. or well 450 sheep commit suicide and 1050 attempt: I shit you not. Pike showed me the news report today... somewhere in Turkey... one sheep decided that life was too hard and jumped offa cliff! Well, i guess there's a reason as to why trendy fuckers are called sheep, b/c as it goes... 1,500 of the other sheep followed suit and jumped as well! craziness. Only 450 died though... this is kinda morbid when you think about it.. but funny at the same time.... What had happened is that as more and more sheep pumbled to their certian doom.. the pile of dead sheep carcass' piled up... and it piled up so high that after the 450th sheep, the rest of the landings were cushioned by the huge pile. Wow.. i wonder if they give out darwin awards for sheep! hahaha.

am i sick to find this humorous?

anyways, i guess this gives a new meaning to the old phrase "if johnny jumped off a bridge, would you too?"

haha... in the land of sheep.. i guess the answer is yes.

and even more about this (yes i know... it's weird for me to find this topic ever so interesting) the news statement said something about how the shepards were blown away by this event... watching the sheep jump... so WHY the fuck didn't they do something? I mean.. saving one sleep.. i can see that being hard.. even a couple hundred of 'em could be tough... maybe those little fuckers were fast as hell.. but 1,500 of them?!!?!?!?!?! I mean.. come on.. they could have ran and tried to stop at least a few of 'em..

ah well.. thats enough of that..
so thats the news in the world of trav for tonight..
