Title: i'm at skool and i dislike skool
i guess i'll start off my end of the year blog/beginning of skool blog right now..i dunno if i'll b able to finish since i have klass in like an hour and a half from now hahaha..phreakin' aye..i dunno what i'm gonna do during these breaks...ok i guess i'll jus type for an hour straight or so so i kan kill some time...damn what do i type about..i haven't really typed nething in a while...or like fully blogged in a while..hmm....i guess i'll start w/ end of may mayb...hmm..or should i jus start w/ june....i'll start w/ both...ok so spring sem ends and there went the 1st year of my kollege kareer..damn that went by like a flash of lightning...yeah..it was like BAM itz done....phreakin' aye...oh well...so finalz and what not..and i think during then it was Debut kourt time...yeah it was..it was for Joyce's debut...that was phun...i didnt' think it was gonna b really phun but it was u know..so yeah thatz dopeness inddeed...uhmm so yeah there was jus praktices and praktices and phreakin aye..i only had like 2 weeks of summervakation b4 i started skool again at LBCC..yeah since i've taken a klass at LBCC it fully kualifies me of Long Beach origin...yeah...so ne way i took an Astronomy klass..it was uhmm...how u say..kind of....boring? hahaha...well yeah it was boring and i slept most of the time but all in all i learned quite a bit and i phreakin' passed the klass too..soo booyyaaahh...hell phreaks yeah as Sushi would say...so yeah..that was interesting..going to klass..and then going to debut praktices...when klass started there was like three of us..well i'm not talking about the whole klass but like our lil group type deal u know...it was Sushi and Sushi's sister's bf's sister..yeah...if she ever reads this she might b like 'WTF y didn't u ever jus say my name?!"..she's proally say something like that then try to hitt me...or hitt Sushi haha..yeah..well time went on and after the 1st midterm i guess she wasn't happy w/ the grade so she dropped..and then there were only two..but yeah that was kool too..it gave me initiative and kompetition somewhat..kuz Sushi always got like a half grade higher than me..i'd get like a B- and he'd get a B..and i would get a C and he'd get a C+ so yeah..itz good to have kompetition....i don't think he saw it that way at all but i usually always end up looking at things like that when itz jus me and someone else so that way i always stive harder and work harder and what not...but yeah...well all in all we both passed..so thatz if ure wondering if we passed or not..uhm yeah and Debut praktices were at that park in West Syyyde LONNG BEEAACH...yeah at that park next to the prison..i mean highskool haha..yeah..nex to Kabubu...itz phunny..i took a pikture of it and seriously u'd think itz a phreakin' prison..mayb i'll upload it one of these dayz mayb...we'lls ee..or i kan alwayz jus put it up on my myspace..myspace..not ures...yeah...so yeah then Joyce's debut kame around..and the vibe was very different for me than the other debuts that i was in...i dunno i think i'm getting really old for the whole debut thing..or mayb it was jus Joyce's kourt kuz i was the eldest guy...they phreakin' kalled me Lolo ...isn't that something...haha..yeah so that was a phun group of youngins..when we weren't prakticing..we were talking about stupid stuff..playing soccer...riding skateboards...learning uya dance routines..or learning how to do cheer stunts..yeah i know how to stunt uhmm a basket toss now..well the back spot tho...i kan't do the legs thing...but yeah...so i learned something new also in that kourt...uhmm so yeah and at Joyce's debut we did those stunts again..to Joyce and her eskort Sonny....SONNNNYYYY!!!...yeah that was krazy kuz we kept on messing up..but we finally got it and everyone started takin' piktures and what not..that was kool..i think she has or had 'em on her myspace...so yeah..and then her debut happend..and yeah there were technikal diffikulties there also...like Roselle kouldnt' get the powerpoint to work kuz there were too many graphics and piktures in it so we had to kill time by sharing childhood stories.phunnystories.jokes.and whateverz ne one kould think of to kill time....yeah then it was Sun Doominal's turn to play..even tho i TOLD Rhen.Anadelle.andCheryll to go b4 us....so yeah..so we did two songs..our hawaiian medly....we really played that medly alot for half of this year....and then we did the kicker song..the one that gets everyone going..and yeah..itz the one that D wrote...and i kame up w/ the musik...but yeah..it was dope w/ two guitarz and a bass..Neil was on bass of kourse...myself on guitar..and Dominic on guitar as well..yeah..Dominic might have been slightly buzzed at that point...i'm honestly not shure if he was or not but ohw ell....so yeah..we rocked dat chet like krazy..yeah and we all jumped at the same time at the end.it was dope..and the krowd was very responsive and they really enjoyed it..so that was phun stuff..oh and Rose went also...Rose is my debut partner Melody's sister..who was only in Kali for like a kouple weeks b4 she went to China on her adventure...Rose is also Sun Doominal's street team leader in New York..yup yup u got dat chet right we got a street team in NYC..and she loves musik and she'll work hard for the bands too that she likes..so itz kool that she's apart of the team...well ne way..that was a phun debut night...said goodbyes and what not and i didnt' sleep over kuz i had skool the next day..blah blah fast forward more and more..so aparently w/ my choir at the time we were planning on putting two things..one a musikal..full on u know...w/ everything..hardkore everything..and number two a showkase..a showkase of talent and what not ...well basikally if ure wondering if those things will ever okurr or if they already did..well..we kanned both idears...but when we were talking about one of the idears durin gone of meetings after we watched taht movie...Hedwig and the angry Inch..krazy movie..kinda weird and gross at times but yeah it was a good movie...so yeah we were at the oval table diskussing and what not and there was a break durin gour disskussion and Willy axed me if i was down to b a roadie for his show at the Blue Cafe...and i said 'shure no problemo i'm there man' and he axed' oh yeah u kan perform too..w/ Dominic if u want' and i was like 'HELL YEAH WE'LL PERFORM...lemme go kall him up to check' so i kall him up and i told him the news and he's like 'F(*)CK YEAH I'M THERE BRO!!!" and then Willy asked me what our band name was and i didn't know at the time so i told him i'll get back to him...so yeah...we really prakticed for that gig...we settled on doing jus guitar and bass songs since we didnt' really have a drummer at the time...well i'll xplain more later...so yeah i IMed D$ and axed him what our name is and he's like "id unno man" and i was like "what about that name u had that u saw in a dream or something" and he's like "oh that u mean ...Sun Doominal" and i was liek "yeah lets use that..itz original..and itz different..and it has a good story behind it u know..." and he's like "i guess yeah for now" so yeah thatz how we settled on the name....so we praktice and we praktice enough for a 15 min. set...and then well there was drama at the time too but i dont' feel like blogging about that but it was ok tho..well later on in the summer things simmered down..and everything is A O K now..well for the most partk..well ne way back to the musik...so yeah itz gig day..i forget when it was but we were pumped and ready and what not..so we go to Matt's house...he was the bass player of Willy's band Hyparxis at the time..he's a really kool guy..really chill..phunny attitude..awesome at the bass..and itz a fretless bass too..AND he rocks on guitar..on top of that he's my age..krazy..well we watch half of Willy's set..and then we praktice our song...Badfish...it was Dominic's idea to make it faster...so yeah..now u know....so Willy and Matt and Drew were diggin' it and it was rockin'..so we left..and then rounded the troops and headed for the Blue Cafe for our first experience at a 21 and over bar/klub ...purdy damn krazy..so we kary all the stuff in...allof it yes i know...set up...chill...it was a purdy damn good krowd that night..a lota peoples...yup yup..and we bypass the authorities for awhile..meaning sekurity..and when they found out we were underage they jus gave us a threatening talk but itz kool....kuz they were kool after that..so we had our hands checked w/ the dreaded Xes....and we did our roadie duties...Dominic maned the Kamera kuz i wasn't shure if he'd b able to change strings and do allt hat tech roadie stuff..and i worked the Pr skillz and got people to sign the mailing list..and i even did some roadie work when Willy broke a string i switched the guitarz and then i changed his string...and i also was a human musik stand for a while..for one song..and he told me 'Hey NEB go f(*)cking krazy on this song" so i did....i think all i did was like shake my hair a lot or something and then like run around in front of the stage and i dunno but he said it looks good on kamera...so yeah...oh yeah and Project East 14 performed b4 Hyparxis...that was the first time is aw them and iw as impreseed..good stuff..so yeah...and then Dominic and I had our turn...so we rocked out w/ our Badfish/wizeman song thingi...it was the best 5 min. gig we ever had...we got like 2 or 3 people to sing along and they were bobbin' their heads ghangstah stylee and everything...yeah..that was dope..even tho our name wasn't on the sign outside or that ne one really knew we were gonna perform but it was dope..and muchas gracias to Willy for makin' that happend...so yeah...hmm that was an overal kick ass event/night...many memories...yeah...and that was the first time we were at the Blue Cafe.... my fingers r tired from typing..i'll finish this
