What You Don't KnowI have seen many that are beautiful,  but you are the most meaningful.  Your beauty is cool and calm,  cooling sweat on my palms.  Your smile makes my world bright,  even in the darkest of nights.  Like the cloudless chimes and starry skies;  and all that is best of dark and bright,  meet in your aspect and your eyes.  We barely know each other,  but you still make my heart flutter.  I cannot buy you a gift for I have no money,  but my love for you is a journey,  starting at forever,  and ending at never.  Indeed, we don’t’ know each other very well,  bu What You Don't Know

Star In The SkyYour eyes are like the stars of the night,  and when you look into my eyes  I am taken aback by your beauty,  for such beauty never notices me.   
You're the most beautiful star in the sky,  and I imagine myself up there with you.  O, what I would give to be with you.  We have so much in common to share.   
I always dream of your utter beauty,  and I wait for each dream to come true.  Every moment spent without you is saddening,  for I treasure your happiness.   
You smile at me in these dreams,  and I love how your face brightens.  I am always doting towards Star In The Sky

A Beauteous KissI dreamt of a kiss between you and I,  and it was a wonderful moment.  Both of us amorous and I bashful,  we kissed once more.   
I wondered how I kissed a beauty like yours,  for I am never so fortunate.  I was drowning in my ugliness,  and your beauty breathed life into my lungs. A Beauteous Kiss

Out of My LeagueYou are out of my league.  I mean, you do beauty pageants  and you're great at modeling.  How does a below average guy like me  get an above average girl like you?  However, with the many hobbies we share,  my chances have shot up.  We even share personality quirks.  But your beauty shines like an angel,  and somehow you have seen my dull ugliness.  I guess something DOES shine within me,  but what did you see shining?  What caught your eye's attraction?  Whatever it is, I hope it lasts.

Shipping Out to the U.S. Army

Thu Jun 18, 2009, 2:42 PM
  • Listening to: "March, Op. 99" Prokofiev
  • Playing: Halo 3, XBox Live
  • Eating: Pizza Rolls
  • Drinking: Voltage Mountain Dew
So I finally signed all my contracts and swore in to the United States Army, and since Tuesday June 16, 2009, I have officially been a Corporal of the U.S. Army. I also found out when I ship out, which isn't till February 10, 2010, so I got a long 8 months. It's that late because the earliest date that they could find for saxophone classes (I'm doing the Army Band, just as a reminder) is on February 16, and I have to be there 6 days prior to the classes for other basic training stuff. I will be at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri, and my basic combat training is for 9 weeks. And another plus side is that I got a $5,000 pay bonus for making it into the band as a high school graduate because literally 98% of the people who pass the audition are college level and professional players. Between now and when I ship out I have pre-basic combat training physical training stuff to do before I leave, but other than that, I have no idea what I'm gonna' do for 8 months. I'd get a job but our economy in Michigan is SO bad that no one is hiring here, literally. Maybe I'll just play Halo 3 on XBox Live all the time, lol. Well, anyway, I'm really excited for my ship date and once I ship out, I probably won't be posting on here anymore. So, every single one of you guys may not hear from me again, except for A-Dance-In-The-Rain (she's my sister). Well, it was a pleasure looking at/reading your art, guys...

I am officially a Corporal in the Army, my MOS being Saxophone Player for the Army. I ship out to basic combat training on February 10, 2010 for 9 weeks and I'll be stationed at Fort Leonard Wood in Missouri; then I'll have 6 months of music school in Norfolk, Virginia, and after that I'll be deployed either somewhere in America or Germany, Tokyo, Korea, Vietnam, anywhere. Basically wherever there's a spot open for saxophone. So on February 10 and onwards, don't expect too much deviations from me.

Classes dull your mind and destroy the potential for authentic creativity.
