things have been inproving. I 've been devoting a lot more of my time to doing things that make me happy, instead of going out of my way to please my friends. I just finished my first tedious project (halloween costume) and with this momentum I will outrun my past and start making big changes. On Friday I'm going to get caught up in my media class and start drawing out some simple shop projects for school so that I can get a mark in. Not only am I going to start doing projects in class, but I would like to start doing them at home too. Simple Instructables stuff to start off, bu ya gotta start somewhere.
As for my personal health, i've tried to eat healthier, but when i'm in a situation where i don't buy my own groceries and my mom works most of the week, I eat most of my meals from the microwave. i've been meaning to start using a toaster oven, ( ya know, nothing healthy ever goes into the microwave) but that would require a place to set everything up. something I lack at the moment. on the plus side, i HAVE been walking a lot more, and i plan on using the stairs more. This may seem like a simple goal (i live on the 6th floor) but my building lacks landings so it's just a straight walk of 25 steps from floor to floor, instead of 10-15 steps and then a landing in between.
i've also been wanting to fix the patch cord for my guitar and learn how to play tabs, chords, and notation. My plan is to incorporate my love to make things into my love of music. planning on making a keyboard stand, guitar stand, and a composition whiteboard out of a large picture frame and some bristol board so that I can convert notes to tabs,tabs to notes, along with standard High School music room tips like how many sharps and flats are in a scale, a fingering chart for guitar and bass, along with many other additions that might not fit on one poster. my walls are bare anyway so it 's not like i'll miss the space. I realized that to make music, I need to learn how to play my instruments.
now since i almost forgot, my Deadmau5 costume that i'm going to wear to roo's party
