We all play off each other really well and they've complimented my playing a lot, I'm able to fuzz it out and get weird with encouragement / no qualms, the drummer throws out some super interesting rhythms and the guitarist just does his own thing creating a wash of sound behind the riffs/rhythm. The drummer recorded our jams today on some old tape reels he had; didn't have any monitors but he said it sounded great though his phones. We probably have 4 solid songs to go off just from today. Can't wait for him to transfer them to his computer and send them my way.
I have to drive an hour to get to the practice spot, and I don't engage in as much small talk as they do with each other, but whatever I'm still stoked.
That's awesome, dude.
I also have to drive for just over an hour to get to band practice and it was pretty damn awkward at first cos I'm in a 3-piece along with two brothers who live together, but it ended up being totally worthwhile. Best of luck!

Yeahhh got really down about recording a song earlier in the week because I couldn't sing it but today I thought I'd try again and I think I've nailed it. Gonna take some time to mix though because it's kinda dense and I'm bad at that.

I have a job that's giving me enough hours to live comfortably.
Kate's mom sent me a check for $100 for school supplies.
I have friends in the area that, like, text me to hang out.
I'm back in school next semester for a major that I'm REALLY excited for.
I have a roommate and don't have to worry about losing my apartment.
Kate's coming home next week!
GUYS, THIS MOVE TO NIAGARA FALLS TOTALLY WORKED OUT IN THE END. EVERYTHING IS FUCKING AWESOME.
LIFE IS FUCKING AWESOME.

I'm feeling more and more confident about my interview on Tuesday. I just had a major breakthrough on my research portion. And I have all tomorrow to finish those up and solidify talking points for the interview.

Really, I'm still generally unhappy with my life. I still drink a lot every night. However during the day, I'm motivated to make things happen. I've also realized that if I find the right job listings, I've got plenty of skills that I can apply to a career. Basically, in the right area with no real paid experienced required, I'm awesome.
Yeah, I feel good. And after tomorrow, I'll feel like this job interview I have on tuesday is practically mine.

Just started talking to this drummer who is into the same music as me and wants to jam sometime.
It's IMPOSSIBLE to find a drummer here so this is extra awesome.
