I manage to afford high end cosmetic brands, and while I may not have as much as many makeup gurus or long time makeup addicts...we gotta take into account...do I really NEED it? Nah. so it's ok, and believe me I have more than I need. haha.
I had lunch with some family friends today, I was showing my 'uncle'(not by blood but he's family anyways :D) my new Takamine. We got on the subject of classical guitar, I was talking about how I really wanted to get into it because I really admired the style. lol, turns out he actually took lessons quite awhile ago and had 2 really nice classical guitars, one of which he let me borrow(I'm having a blast, I'll have to take pictures of it and post them up here, it's a freaking gorgeous guitar).
Anyways, upon arriving home he calls me and says that when I left he found an old classical guitar, kinda beat up and run down but it sounds good, and would be good for me to start out on and he said I could have it. Holy crap. I was sincerely touched by that, it means so much to me. :D
I am really appreciative of all the luxuries I have in my life. I can't stress that enough...
Classical guitar is proving fun thus far. I say this now, now that I haven't had a lesson and I'm fumbling blindly through Beethoven's 5th Symphony only from what I've read...hahaha. but really though, I'm excited to start playing it...I bet it'll enhance all my other writing and stuff.. I was writing some on the acoustic last night and came up with these cool diminished sounding arpeggios, fingerpicked. Sounds even better on a classical guitar. maybe I can learn to write some bass-y stuff for it, that'd sound great for an intro, outro or pre-solo.
anyways. off to do stuff. books to read, movies to watch, music to write, more productive stuff to do. :)
I'll be back with Silverstein lyrics, I bet.
welcome to the planet. welcome to existence. everyone's here, everyone's here. everybody's watching you, now. everybody waits for you, now...what happens next, what happens next...? I DARE YOU TO MOVE, I DARE YOU TO MOVE, I DARE YOU TO LIFT YOURSELF UP OFF THE FLOOR. I DARE YOU TO MOVE, I DARE YOU TO MOVE LIKE TODAY NEVER HAPPENED, TODAY NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE...welcome to the fallout. welcome to resistance...the tension is here, the tension is here. between where you are and where you could be, between how it is and how it should be... I DARE YOU TO MOVE. I DARE YOU TO MOVE. I DARE YOU TO LIFT YOURSELF UP OFF THE FLOOR. I DARE YOU TO MOVE, I DARE YOU TO MOVE LIKE TODAY NEVER HAPPENED, TODAY NEVER HAPPENED...maybe redemption has stories to tell, maybe forgiveness is right where you fell. where can you run to escape from yourself? where you gonna go? where you gonna go...? salvation is here! I DARE YOU TO MOVE, I DARE YOU TO MOVE, I DARE YOU TO LIFT YOURSELF, TO LIFT YOURSELF UP OFF THE FLOOR. I DARE YOU TO MOVE, I DARE YOU TO MOVE LIKE TODAY NEVER HAPPENED, TODAY NEVER HAPPENED...TODAY NEVER HAPPENED, TODAY NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE.
