Okay, well let's see.

First, about a month ago, I decided to waste three dollars on a coffee (because I hated them at the time), and discovered that I actually loved it. I've had coffee everyday since then. It's good stuff. I can't believe I didn't like it before. Oh well, but yeah, mocha = brilliant. I actually named my new bass mocha. I bought a bass a few weeks ago, it's pretty tight, I like it.

I played solo at Oskar Blues one night, for some Guitars Etc thingy. It was awesome... And a week later I played with the All Stars Jazz, which at the same time I got the opportunity of joining another jazz combo with my friend Andy who plays vibes and other percussion stuff. We both want to go to Berklee next year, and we both are going to try out for the Grammy Jazz Ensemble. Basically... It would be righteous if I got into that -- first I would get to go to California and the Grammys, second it would be with a friend, third, I would get to bypass the Berklee audition. So... That's cool.

Well, I go to Boston next week for a Guitar Camp. Hah, a guitar camp I actually get to participate in -- since the first week of June I've been interning at Guitars Etc for their guitar rock camps. It's actually pretty great, today is the last day. Basically, it kept me on a routine, cause God knows I needed one! Otherwise I probably would have ended up being lazy and unproductive. So yeah, it got me up, got a coffee at Ziggi's, go over there and teach some music... Good times.

I must admit, I am pretty loopy right now -- yes it is all legal. I am on a million pain killers for an oral surgery I had a few days ago. It hurts like hell, and my face is swollen, so it looks like a square. But whatever, I am relaxed on all these drugs. I got teeth implants and bone grafts. Fun fun? Now it looks like I got into a gang fight. A few people have given me an odd look today, hah, I find it entertaining. Gotta enjoy life!

Oh yeah, another jazz combo hah, I got into the Colorado Conservatory for the Jazz Arts... Yeah... So that's like... 5 groups I play in... I'm gonna start taking vocal lessons too. I'm pretty psyched for that.

If I'm rambling...blame the drugs! I swear...

What else... I'm going up to Copper Mountain tonight with my family for their Guitar weekend. Get to watch some sweet guitarists I haven't found out yet but yes! And, they usually have niiiiice guitars on display, always making me feel lame and wishful.

School is coming up, which means this damn extended essay has to be done. I've got about 2,500 words right now. Ah. And I have pretty much only worked on it at Ziggi's... I am here too much. And yes, I am here right now... Drinking a mocha non-fat no skim double shot. YAYY. I will be semi-awake for rock camp thing tonight.

So pretty much, my life is very busy and productive with musical endeavors in a nutshell. It's a good life... This is where I want to be. The people I meet are fantastic!!

That would be my summer. Time for BOSTON!! Time for overcast and rainy weather!! Time to miss school to play music!! Hah! Yes!
