Kivimetsan Druidi really caught my attention out of all these bands. They are sick ass folk metal with female and male vocals. Check them out here.

Blinded by the Sun.

The new Gym Class Heroes album "The Quilt" is awesome. My favorite tracks on it are "Blinded by the Sun" and "Drnk Txt Rmeo". The whole album is awesome though. I've been playing it almost non stop since I downloaded it the other day.

I had a pretty uneventful day today. I basically sat around, cleaned up my room to get it ready for turning it into a studio, and played some Xbox. Call of Duty 5 comes out soon, and I'm definitely gonna be getting that. I found two more records in my house too, one by some band called "Nutcracker" from like 1978, and one by Gene Johnson called "Always True" from 1981. I also remembered that I had gotten At Half-Mast's "Alive, Alone, and Waiting" on clear orange vinyl from where I made them a moving banner a year or something ago.

I also get my license next week, but I won't have anything to drive until next weekend probably, unless I can drive my Mom's car until then, which I doubt will happen. My family wants me to sell the van and get a little car, but I like the van a lot, ha. They're right though, gas is gonna cost too much to drive it a lot.

"You told me it's the truth
But I'm still afraid
I'm not the one
That would jump the gun
If I had proof
I'd take off my shades
And be blinded by the sun"

Vinyl!

So I've been thinking about this for awhile...I've wanted to start collecting vinyl. I've had a few my Dad gave me sometime last year or so, and then tonight I bought about 10 more. Lauren is getting me something to play em on for Christmas, so I'm pretty excited on that. She said it has a USB connection too...so I can probably start working on producing beats and stuff. I wanna learn whatever I can that involves recording in any way since that is what I really wanna get into later on.

Anyways, here is a list of what I got today:
  • Agallah - The Crookie Monster
  • Anthrax - I'm The Man
  • Aretha Franklin - Everyday People
  • Bukshot - What's On My Mind
  • Dre - Naomi
  • Cheri Dennis - Freak feat. Babs
  • Michael Jackson - They Don't Care About Us
  • New Edition - Last Time/All on You
  • Plan B - Life's a Beat
  • Wreckx-N-Effect - Rump Shaker
I'll probably get more than just the value bin stuff pretty soon. I'll post up the stuff my Dad gave me before too, although, it was mostly classic rock type stuff though.

Zannah.

Ah, it's been ages since I've posted on here. But I feel the need to post something again.

I've more or less been in love with reading lately surprisingly and I have spent a lot of time reading. I read both of the Star Wars Darth Bane novels, and I am now anxiously waiting the release of the third book, which is said to come out in late 2009. Since I knocked out the second book, I've got awhile to read some other stuff. I finished Eragon and began on Eldest, so I'm gonna finish that one up and then read Brisingr. I wanna read some non-fantasy books after I get done with those, any suggestions?

It's just past one in the morning right now and I'm just beginning to show signs of being tired, which isn't a good sign for me since I have to be up for school in the morning around 8. But I am very relieved after today to find that I am passing all of my classes, with only one being below an 80. I have a 90 in Senior project/English IV, a 94 in Electrical Trades (I literally know less about that subject since I've started that class), an 84 or something in Digital Video Productions (Easiest class ever, but still fun, Mr. Halstead is awesome) and then finally, I have a 74 in Algebra 2. I'm just happy to get by passing a math class after my terrible failure in Geometry, haha.

I've gotta pass all my classes this year, and as long as things keep on going smoothly like they are, I'll be out of high school right on schedule. Report cards come out on the 10th, which means I will be able to drive. The van will be back on the road again, so expect to see the old brown stickered up van all over town all the time if you live here in Wilmington.

I think I'm gonna start posting on here a lot more often again and it will be less about just what I have been up to, but about stuff I've been thinking about and stuff I have ideas I want to share on.

Side note: The new Taylor Swift disc comes out November 11th, I'm pretty excited on that (Call me lame for it, but I don't care).
