sometimes it just takes a road trip to put life back into perspective. i had a great time traveling with friends, seeing old friends and meeting new ones... it was perfect, but way too short.
now i find myself back at camp and trying to balance camp life with the dreams that are floating around in my head... so many thoughts of creativity have erupted in my brain as of late. the hardest part is putting it all on paper to make sense of patterns.
i also learned some things about myself and my friends and i feel that many things even there have been put into perspective and settled in my mind. crazy how a few extra days can do that.
i think i'm already planning a trip to texas for the fall? or next spring. depends on when my table gets done ;) but it should be a great time and i can't wait. seriously, this table hasn't even been made yet, but knowing that i'm going to get a mpk original makes me super excited!!
i really am happy as of this moment. life is good and i know pray that friendships that were started could continue to grow and flourish. maybe oh sleeper will be like the new underoath in my life? maybe. i suppose no one will quite fill those shoes, but it is a great feeling to know that new connections are being made that help me continue to support bands in the scene. :) that was such a big part of my life, and is a part of my life that i still hold a passion for. not just the music and the bands, but the kids that relate to the hardcore/metal family. every time i go to show i am drawn back in, and each time i tell myself, this time i'm going to stay more involved. well... maybe its time for me to live up to that. maybe this new connection with oh sleeper is a way to not only support a band i love, but a scene that was once so dear to my heart. its true that you can never get it out of your blood. and maybe that's not such a bad thing...
