Starting in the fall I will be attending the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. I am really excited to start and just have a great time with great friends. I really like the area and I'm looking so forward to having my own apartment a block away from south street.
I really can't wait, I really want to get out of this town. It's not that I hate this town (well I occasionally do...), I just need a break from this place. I've lived in the same house for eighteen years. I can't wait to get out of here, but I'll still miss the place. That's why I've given myself a project for the summer. I'm going to document (using mostly photography and some other mediums, maybe even music) everything I love about New Jersey. I'm going to bring it all with me to Philly to remind me of my home and what really inspires me and has brought me along this far. It should be a fun and interesting project, I'm really looking forward to it.
Last Friday night I saw I am the Avalanche at the Holmdel Fire House. It was one of the best times I've had in a real long time. I had only recently started listening to band but I knew almost every word to every song and sang my heart out. Just being there and living off the energy of the band and the crowd made this show incredible. It felt so great to be part of something so incredible with some of the best guys I know. It was one of the only shows were I felt such a strong connection to the band. It felt like both the band and the crowd live off each other and need each other to stay alive, and it was incredible. I'm really looking forward to seeing this band again (hopefully soon) and just have a great time again. This band deserves all the recognition it can get because they are just plain awesome.
Well I guess that's it for now, things seem to be looking up right now (aside from stupid school shit which I don't really care about). Cya!
