New Goals.

I want to deliver product that is lifechanging. Which makes me feel like I can start from scratch, right now. Because the truth is, a lot of my past music, writing, etc. has been cathartic for me. But how does art come across in a way as to heal other people?

Ego, art, and the spirit: a reconciliation.

Back to School

I am excited about the prospect of re-entering school. I have about 50 units completed so why not finish what I started? I had to take off a good decade and a half for some vagabonding but i'm not looking to be geriatric by the time I get my degree (not that anything is wrong with that, mind you.)
Part of the reason I haven't finished my GE classes is the frustration with how much math I felt I'd have to take. Ironically, I've always been rainman like at time tables, etc. but I have no patience for the abstract stuff. Right now I'm in the process of trying to add a statistics class at UCLa.
I really like the Teacher, Kevin Nichols. He has a very straight forward and honest way of teaching that I like. I figure once I get that stuff out of the way everything else will be fun. Just feels like it's going to take forever. I'm not giving up music by any means, in fact I hope to study it further.

The beard is coming off soon.

It seems that whenever I try to grow a beard I succeed for a month or two and then grow weary of looking more and more like Howard Hughes. I'm eccentric enough without it, I'm not looking to win any more eclectic creative guy of the week awards. Maybe when I'm an old man I'll grow the courage to keep my facial hair, but I predict for now it'll be gone within the week.

I need to Excercise

I let myself go this summer. I used to always run, ride bikes, i don't know. Maybe it's because last year at this time i started pulling muscles, i've been too easy on myself. Time to start kicking butt again. But every time I tell myself that i don't. So hopefully i'll just naturally fall out of lazy mode, which i blame on getting laid off, being online too much and never having any money. No excuse.

people with no soul
get things done faster
that way they can chill for longer
alone in their ivory tower
