Life lessons and my new toy


When people get into relationships, they tend to feel the need to spend every waking moment with that person. They think about them all day, and dream about them at night. What is with this phenomenon. I understand everyone needs love, but the vast majority of people that I have been in contact with lately completely change thier lives. They are no longer receptive, they now need to ask thier "other" before they make decisions on thier own. This is just very annoying to me. We were born free, why compromise our freedom for someone we may not even LIKE in a year? People tend to push away the ones who keep them strong, the ones who are there for them when thier "other" treats them like shit. Why is this? It's not like that for me. When i'm in a relationship, I make my own choices, I am considerate of my girlfriend, but when my buddy asks to hang out, and I have nothing planned, I'm not gonna go asking permission or seeing if it's okay to do so. I think it's just that most people are insecure. they need someone to be there for them at all times, and when they get into a relationship, the MUST keep that person. Granted there is a huge chance it WILL end, and they will ask why they wasted so much time on this person, and all you can do is knod and pretend to be confused!
In other news, I bought a new drum set!!!! As you can see it's baby blue. It sounds GREAT! I'm playing at the Bugjar on Tuesday and i'm gonna give it a go for the first time. I'm starting to become a very serious drummer. Not like I wasn;t b4, but i'm getting so many offers I can't keep track, and i'm happy. I'm single for a reason, and thats okay. I need no distractions right now. Granted if someone special came along who knows, but I tend to always keep my head on straight and never break what my goals are. they just become part of it all. But i'm frikkin happy!!

Funny because I know exactly who you're talking about. Anyway, just my two cents on the whole relationship thing. I think it's healthy as long as the other person is considered. Just to keep a balance between having your own life and not neglecting your relationship. I think you've got a good handle on that though, It's just that most people tend to be at both extreme's. Either they never hang out with their significant other or they're all up under their bf/gf's armpits all the damn time! I must say, that is quite annoying. We all make our choices though.
Damn... it's all about balance.

Enough of that shit, let's get to the more important things in life. Congrats on the new set!! Haha. Don't hurt 'em to badly now!
