here we go again!

Alright time to wipe the slate clean and start the year anew!

Three day's in, the new year's been pretty good. I've got myself finishing up some projects of major importance and starting a few new ones too. Those projects include:

1. the EP! yep, I've decided to put some of my sporadic writing on paper napkins and pieces of paper to good use. As of now, there's two songs completely written, they just need polishing from my producer. The other 4 hopefuls, which will have to be narrowed down to 3 or less are in the final stages of being written. I'm really hoping to get these tracks done tomorrow.

As of now the sound of the vox is very jazzy to me, but we've thrown in some guitar riffs for one song and a piano bit for another, so the sound is still being developed, but i have a pretty good idea where i want it to head.

2. I decided to write a book of letters. this really is just another form of a journal, however all the letters are specifically written towards people in my life that either irritate me, i love dearly, or those i just think of from time to time. Hopefully i'll be able to keep on this for the entire year and then at the end read through all the nonsense i've written and figure out if it's helped me get a better understanding of myself. This probably will never be seen by anyone but myself.

3. Books books books! I have a large collection of books that I need to either dispose of or read. Right now i've started reading the Twilight Series. This is mainly due to the fact that I need something to jumpstart my reading habits again. Also three of my good friends have read these books, so i suppose if anything, it's something discuss over tea.

4. Adventures: I hope to go on more adventures this year for work, or otherwise. I would like to:

-snowboard
-camp
-visit monteray bay
-go to vegas
-go surfing
-go rock climbing

I have a whole year, so hopefully some of these things will get done.

4. Be healthy & enjoy life.

As of now these are the only things that I can think of that i should work on/improve/do/otherwise.

i will say though that last year started off very good, then went pretty bad and then the rest of the year was clean up time. hopefully i'll try to remember what happened at the beginning of last year that made it so great and focus on that. ;)
