Running is like crack, which is awesome.

I have been running habitually for a few months, and the more I do it, the more I love it. I plan on being in “race shape” soon and running a half marathon with my girlfriend. Running is also the primary motivator for me too not start smoking again, which like crack, is addicting.

Turning Point?

The day came today. I went to a meeting to discuss my future placement with ISU as a senior and future teacher. The question was officially asked on paper; “Where is your home?” It hit me hard, and is a question that I faced with hesitation. The school wants to know where I want to live after I graduate.

I don’t know if what I wrote was correct, but what it was is 205 N Linden. My life has evolved since I’ve been here, found meaning, and this has become my home. I still have a lot of questions to answer like where does God want me, what will happen immediately after I graduate, and will I still have the Love I have found in this place. I’ve seen people leave and become disconnected, and I am sure if I do that I will regrettably also become disconnected. But if I stay will it be the right thing?

I know that I want to do God’s will. And for that I am willing to go anywhere, sacrifice anything. The future is now, and I am going to take my steps with the Love.

Synthesizer fishing

I’ve been in the market for a synth now for a few weeks. I love music, and i want to make it but with more than a guitar and drums. Therefore a synthesizer. I am looking for one that has the capability to put down a drum beat that I create and then I want to layer on top of it my own choices of instrumentation, with the unique sounds and capabilities of the synthesizer. And it will be brilliant. I will keep looking, what I like so far is the Korg Microkorg. It has the voice modulator and other sweet tools. I’m excited.

what charms old David.. This is to let you know what I find interesting to the world. I’ve seen it all, and now I’ll report. If by some fluke of nature I stumble across a new bit of info that catches my eye, well this is a good place for that too.

Headphones

I recently spent some time with old friends whom I love and respect, and who told me an intriguing story. Kyle experienced an evening in New York at a small club his sister and brother in law took him too. He described a walk in the street and discretely being led into an unlabeled black door off of the road to expose a hall that lead to a room crammed with 300 people gathered to hear David Bazan in his side-project, Headphones. He listened in amazement and had a tearful moment as he heard the songs for the first time. Kyle then introduced me to the music and his instincts were on; the debut album is shockingly good. I love these moments.
