week of music

went to Jason Mraz concert last nite. it's was awesome. granted, i'm not a big fan of big band stuff....he still sings great. oh and he's either really silly and crazy or he was drugged out of his mind, but he was hillarious with his craziness. Tonight will be John Mayer. Whee hooo!

Two awesome musicians that inspire me to pursue music. I'm slowly getting there and when I mean slow, I mean S-L-O-W!!!! Things just need to click in my head so that I'd learn to put music with my songs. I'm being patient and open minded. I think I've said that plenty of times. The thing is, I have to remind myself that so that I will not get frustrated enough that I'd give up. You gotta do some of those mind tricks and do some self reminders so that you can move on and go on.

Well, I'll write more later. I have to go to the grocery store for I am the only one left from my family to do the shopping for thanksgiving. I'm making queche. whee hoo!!

I'm back from John Mayer. It was fantastic. You know, the more I go on these concerts, the more I want to pursue music. It's in my blood. My whole body just gets excited and my heart just starts to ache that I'm not in the mix of things. I know I have a lot of things to do before I can even attempt to go perform somewhere. I have a lot of writing, learning, rehearsing. . . but I know I can do something with this if only I can continue the drive. What am I saying? I KNOW I CAN!!! as thomas the train said. We'll get to the end of the rainbow sometime.


i keep thinking this is it
this is what i want to do
the bright ideas in my head
i tend to start without thinking

i end up hurting myself
end up disappointed
ready to give up again
to throw in the towel instead

i get frustrated
become totally incapasitated
unwilling to move
just suddenly complacent

i jump ahead thinking i deserve
all i want i should get
in a silver platter it is served

am i totally naive
nor am i just plain stupid
thinking that the world would cater to my every desire
to keep the fuel for my fire

and so i get frustrated
become totally incapaciated
unwilling to move
just suddenly complacent

do i need a glowing sign so that i can follow
road maps that would lead
a driver perhaps that would take me there
but really, it is me that should take the lead

if things don't go my way
there's no one else to blame
it's not their fault you didn't get there
you gave up playing the game
