"If you're a bird, I'm a bird..."

And so my week long dream like trip is coming to a close. Though I guess I cant be too sad, cause I might be coming back in two weeks.

Things I'll miss:

-Movie Nights
-Froyo and school with my girls
- Impulse and Legacy
-The entire Casey family
-Cooking for you
-Notes
-Playing guitar while you do homework

And a few other things that I'd like to keep to just me for just a bit longer.

I'm glad this trip rekindled a lot of old feelings and inspired a lot of new ones. All in different areas. I got back something I missed since Jr. year of high school. I'm a romantic, but 3 years of no romance can make a guy rusty. This trip has brought me back to my roots, so to speak, and I couldnt be happier. I think you couldnt be happier either.

I love my girls. I'm more comfortable with them then I have ever felt. They feel like home to me. No, they ARE home to me.

HOME

Sis, you've only known me for about four and a half months and I know you've always got my back. I love. Lemme try that one mo gain. I LOVE!

I cant wait to start working. It'll be the final puzzle piece to making my new life official. I know that sounds dumb, but while I've been back in Cali I felt like I've just been kinda wasting my time. Although I couldnt be happier being back, I kinda feel like (if I'm not in L.A.) I dont really have a purpose. So, I'm glad to finally fill that void. It'll make a lot of people happier with me. Including me.

Anywho, I should get some shut eye before I bus it up for six and a half hours. HELLA MO' KITTY POUCH!

Final Thought:

Wanna go for a walk?

Sometimes Blogs are like Crack...

After my spurt of writing every day for a week, it's good to be back at a comfortable pace. That week was just jam PACKED full of shit to talk about.

Are your problems a good, bad or an in-between?

Thank you Charlie Kelly.

Anywho, I'm leaving for L.A. today and I couldnt imagine leaving a second later. I think I'll be heading back near my birthday, but I'll see if my financial means allow me to do so. That is truly where I wanna be on a milestone birthday like that. With the people I really love and care about. The few people who make me HAPPIER than anyone else. You need those few friends who are always gunna be there for you.

Music is going well. I'm booking more and more gigs and hopefully L.A. will provide a flood of more venues that enjoy having me there.

Anywho, gotta go back.

The Past

Sometimes it's good to relive the past... I think it helps remind us how we got where we are. It helps us remember what mistakes were made and why we make the choices now in order to avoid making the same mistake twice.

Its nice to relive to good moments. To remember we are loved. To remember that we have some many experiences that have made us smile and how we may look forward to more again.

It's good relive old love. Cause you never know when your chance will come again.

AH!

Sometimes you just get to the point where you're just tired of it all. Tired of all the negativity and all the things that for one reason or another are against you.

That's where I'm at.

I'm an optimist at heart. 99.9% of the time I can smile and just let it slide off my back like water on a duck.

But there are times where, for some reason, I allow my defenses to fall. And it sucks.

But I have such a great support system. And I know that I'll be ok. I know that, other then the one or two negative things I have left, I'm at the happiest point in my life so far.

And that's a GREAT feeling.

Not just knowing it, but the people I've surrounded myself with live up to that every single time. Most of the time they exceed my expectations.

I love you all.

All the problems will pass as long as you hold on to what really matters. What you really love. What really makes you happy.

Do what makes you happy. For me... music.

Surround yourself with people you can rely on. Surround yourself with people who you love and know will have your back whenever you need them.

Those are the most important things to me.

Music & the people I love are all I need right now.

Whew... hope you enjoy my rant. Maybe my thoughts will be a little more collected later and I can try to explain a little better.

So, What's Next?

I'm at another transitional stage. This whole winter break had been me reaching a new chapter in my life, but now I just gotta keep reading. I hit the new place... and it's great. And I know it's only gunna get better.

This winter break had changed me and my life forever. In to many ways to explain. But I'll say this; I used to have friends in L.A., but now I have a family.

I love the fact that I've gained a 22 year old sister. I LOVE it. Siera = Coolest... person... ever.

Song inspiration? I think so... I think so.

My music is coming along nicely. I LOVE working with Brittany. It's just so easy and comes so naturally whenever we pick a song to cover. She's got an amazing voice and makes me sound at least 10 times better. I think we could write a really great song together. I just don't know if we've reached that stage yet. She's just kinda starting this whole music thing and I'm right in the middle of it. I think it would be hard for the two of us to find a pace we're both comfortable at.

But I'm proud of her. She's got a lot of talent. I'm glad she's using it. And I'm really glad she wants me to be a part of it.

Anywho, I've started to learn Italian. It's something I've wanted to do for a long time... and I think I'm ready now. I'm at the point in my life where everything is changing, so why not throw this in the mix as well. I've always said I'm gunna live in Italy at one time in my life. I'm going to make it happen. I dont view it as something I want to do, I look at it as something I'm GOING to do. Why not? If I feel so strongly about something... why not experience it? Something that's known for art, music, food, rich history, and above all else LOVE.

I wouldn't be surprised if I was made for Italy. Or the other way around for that matter. Or both?

Final Thought:

Forgive Quickly
Kiss Slowly
Laugh Uncontrollably
&
Love Truly

See You Soon.

Not a single moment has gone by that I haven't thought about you.

I love you.



I always have and always will.

Dear Video Buddies.

Dear Dana & Siera,

I am currently typing for a video I'm making you. I wanted it to be authentic, so i thought why not make a blog post. I LOVE YOU AND MISS YOU BOTH!
