yeah today we got new uniforms at SINAI and they are RIDICULOUS! haha the hats not bad but, the aprons are EMBARASSING to say the least.

i guess me conor and mikey d are jammin soon with is VERY good

im now going to go into why i want to be a career musician for a while:

there is nothing i hate more than the thought of working 40 hours a week for the rest of my life and i will not do it. i just won't. there's nothing i love more than punk rock and hardcore music.

now, your telling me have the option to take a chance and try and play hardcore/punk as opposed to working 40 hours a week...? well FUCK! im down! where do i sign?!

now i've come to the realization that,after alot of people telling me this,that i was born with a gift, and that gift is singing, now with a passion for singing and music in general, i feel as if it is my DUTY to persue a career in music, and if i don't, i simply WON'T have lived my life to the fullest. and when i die if someone asks me "are you happy with the way you lived your life?" my answer would be no. 

if you told me now " Jason, i am from the future, and i really regret having to tell you this but, you will not have a career or be sucessfull in music, goodbye" i would put a bullet between my eyes, no lie.

well point being, there is NOTHING i want more in life than to be in a band that practices,plays out, records, and tours. and i will not be happy until i have acheived that goal.

my topics are pretty sporatic, i apologize for this but....

on another note, today i woke up and headeded to work, it was boring and dreadfull as usual, and they don't want me to have my lip ring anymore, gotta go. i don't really know what i am going to do about that but hey, i'll figure somethin out.

I love Julia Drew. She is the best girl on the face of the planet and we will get married :)

i'll probably take the town job if i know for sure josh will eventually work there with me(he has an application pending as well as i do) 14 dollars an hour(at least until my music thing starts happening)

usually kids into music always have SOMETHIN goin on (like little projects or whatever) not me, i played guitar in Crooks for a while(not what i wanted to be doing(playing guitar in a band) but it was better than doing nothing, but of course the band broke up due to my lead singer joining a touring band - which i couldn't be more happy for him. i wouldn't have wanted to play guitar full time in a band anyways, so i'm glad it worked out. :)

im going to go watch family guy now with my friends :)

as you can see, i really want to be in a band so wish me luck

thanks again for reading

haven't updated this in a while so this WILL be long.... if i can get to a real computer more often, i'll update more often. not that anyone wants to read it but hey

i sucessfully completed moving out of my apartment today, it was a good feeling. i no longer have the keys and i live with the pelosis in the basement with tony for now, until me and Julia can save up for an apartment. i really want to get one in stoughton,a nice cheap one room apt in stoughton, i can have my friends over whenever i want and it will be nice and relaxing :)

i feel really bad about the way things turned out but i feel as if i did the right thing - look out for myself and what will really make me happy. ehhh enough on that topic,everything will work itself out eventually...

ummm yeah i still work at the NEW ENGLAND SINAI HOSPITAL and i still HATE MY LIFE BECAUSE OF IT

eric got a job somewhere, i might see if i can get a job there for 10 bucks an hour. i just flatout NEED to make more money and get the fuck away from those fuckin idiots that think i'm a loser and incompetant because i PURPOSLEY DON'T DO MY JOB RIGHT BECAUSE I DON'T GIVE A FUCK, and i am ALWAYS LATE because NO ONE ON EARTH can just WAKE UP at 4:45 AM and just GO....

fuck'em i can't wait til my last day

but yeah i got more tattoos since my last update, Ross quit pins and needles i guess, which sucks, don't really know how i'm gonna get ink now...until i find out where he's workin now or i call him or whatever but as for right now, shit.

but then again it doesn't even really matter because i don't have the money to be blowing on tattoos anyways because i NEED to be saving for an apartment. 

my Dad said he was gonna punch me in my face - haha

my mom insists Al's House is the worst thing that ever happened to me and that the mentality there is what ruined mine and Eric's relationships with BOTH of our parents....direct quote.

ughh im not gonna go off on a rant on how my parents suck or anything but jesus fucking christ this is ridiculous...

hmmm what else has been going on, oh yeah, there is this plant called HENNA, that the hair stylist at Sinai suggested i use to dye my hair, she said she would be REALLY shocked if i had any type of allergic reaction to it because it is just a plant, well of course i use it and i'm allergic to it, oh well, i guess i am just going to have to abandon the idea of having a jet black devilock and go with my natural hair color, not the end of the world i guess.

still no luck with getting a band together, yet at least. mikey D said he'd start somethin up with me and conor and that he knows musicians, he wants it to sound like Kid Dynamite Meets Shut Your Mouth And Open Your Eyes Era AFI, which i am MORE than down for so we'll see if that ever fuckin happens, or if it's just another pointless attempt at trying to convince myself my music career might begin...probably the latter.

today i was feeling very nostalgic.
reminiscing of my younger years at Al's house and the skate park, listening to Stoughton based bands(probably sparked by the fact that last night i saw the Lost City Angels play stoughton high's auditorium, featuring Chris Duggan himself) i listened to RANCID - ...AND OUT COME THE WOLVES all the way through as well...i drove around the old neighborhood and where we used to hang out. i used to do this very often but hadn't in a while. it was sad, it always is. i will never feel the way i did back then and i will never be able to re-live those times. there's really no use thinking about it because it only hurts, so enough for now, but i'm sure i will write of plenty more memories in the future.

as far as my short term goals go:

1. Open a bank acount somewhere so that A. i can start saving for the Apt. and B. i can renew my gym membership
2. Renew my gym membership
3. get a new job
4. start to get a band going
5. fix things with my parents

time will only tell if these things will happen, i hope to do all of which before my birthday

i guess that's it for now 'til next time, thanks for reading.
