LUCK is achieved by putting yourself in every PLACE all of the TIME and eventually both will be RIGHT

Sometimes you just don't know what to say. Sometimes things go a certain way because things are meant to happen. These things are far bigger than you, but you feel special knowing you are a part of them. I can honestly say that I just saw something happen that I thought would never happen, at least not in front of my eyes. I just saw a performance, that at this moment, I want to classify as "the best," but I'll take into consideration the lingering heat of the moment and say that after the shock wears off, it will end up in the top 5.
nobody puts baby in the corner.
Sometimes you get opportunities, because you work for them. You jump on the moment and give it your best shot. I work better on teams than I used to think I could.
When creating this site I wanted to make these artists and other people involved, prove that they had something to say. Prove that they had insight in this industry and in the world around them and had more to say than you can fit into 12 tracks on an album. I wanted to prove that though this industry seems to be closing in on itself, that there are a few who will be strong enough to triumph over it and create a better model. Not all artists are being used by their labels. Not all vocalists have nothing to say. Not all people living in this world that others find "elite" consider their lives to be that at all. At the end of the day, we are all just trying to make ourselves, and the people around us, happy. Today I saw 8 people, who many kids look up to as being some sort of god, speak to a group of college kids about their insight on the industry and their careers. They were far more well spoken and down to earth than some might imagine. They had educated opinions and ideas about what is happening right now and how to prepare for the future. For a group of people that I often put on some sort of pedestal, they did a fine job of staying up there in my mind. I stood there, feeling like I was watching my children speak their minds to an audience of doubters. I take up for these people at the drop of a dime, but watching them prove my opinions right in front of an audience, who turns their nose up at me when wearing this band's tee shirt, was one of the most satisfying things I could ask for.
It's nice not to drown in dissappointment for once.
So, I've, I definetley don't want to say that I've wasted, but used, half of my work day to achieve this hightened level of happiness and well...this once negative sentence is turning into something on the postive side. Let's say...who cares! I do however have work to catch up on and have no concentration in my body knowing what I just saw and knowing what I'm going to be experiencing tonight. I'm reminiscing of England. I took a train down to Bournemouth and actually purchased the last ticket to the Fall Out Boy show. I call it fate. Cassie calls it, the show that led her to the best plate of jerk chicken she's ever inhaled.
I'd never bet on it, but I feel that I can say that I know the way your head works better than half of the people I've claimed to be in love with.
