No Puddles To Splash In

So on Friday we joined the bike collective in riding from CSUN to Amoeba records in Hollywood. It was originally predicted to rain that day and as the hours got closer to the 5 p.m. head out time, the wind seemed pick up pace, but none of were discouraged. The sun set and with darkness covering the campus, we all turned our lights on and headed out. Although cold, the weather lent itself to be rather enjoyable. The closer we got to Universal, the more the anticipation grew on riding over the Cahuenga pass. It almost appeared that it was going to rain but luckily no rain whatsoever. We all rode over the pass and soon found ourselves in Hollywood. High fives to go around and smiles for what was a long ride. At Amoeba we found some awesome cds and hopefully the start of a growing metal collection between us two.

After Amoeba, we split for the El Capitan Theater to go see the premier for Frozen. The movie is hilarious on a lot of levels and the Mickey Mouse short that went before it was absolutely awesome. Disney has some good tricks and surprises up its sleeves.

and here I find myself thinking about you and listening to The Cure. Funny how things are sometimes :)

Collective ideas

Yesterday concluded one entire year since it was officially decided we were a cheesy, dorky couple. As part of it, we went on our first trip outside of Los Angeles that didn't include Disneyland or Seaworld, and had a lot of fun. I enjoy dressing up for her and wearing my black pants with a nice black button up shirt and walking around as her arm candy. Lots of laughs, lots of food and a great time together :)

I injured my foot a few weeks ago and it just straight out sucks. There is discomfort in walking and I can't either ride my bike or play soccer (it's not like I did anyways). I know time isn't on my side and I am super out of shape, but I really miss playing soccer. I've never really been good at it, as my passion is a lot larger than my actual abilities, but the feeling of playing a pick-up game with friends was always fun. The laughs and generally positive vibes made the sport enjoyable. Maybe over the winter I'll find time, but until I guess the only real thing I have is FIFA 14 on my Playstation 3 and on the Vita haha

I just randomly felt like posting Children of Bodom's "BloodDrunk." It's a really good song but the keyboards always stand out to me. There is just something about certain metal bands getting the mix of keyboards right, that makes me enjoy the sound.

I'm still a bit bummed I didn't really get to go on a ride today. Just did a few miles. A bit of a let down but what can you do.

On a separate note, it's a bit strange when someone complains about other people hogging the tv to play video games. I wouls like to play sometimes too

On Monday, woke up besides her, went to school, went to Disney's California Adventure with her and went to see Helloween with her, went to sleep with her cuddled up in my arms. All in one day. It was a superb experience. Got on Tower of Terror and who knows what not. Got some awesome new pins!!!!!! Plus Helloween played the jams and a lot of the best songs from Straight Out Of Hell, even though sadly they didn't play "Far From The Stars. "Awesome day to every extent

You're 1, 300 miles away and all I can do is hope you're having an amazing time. So far it seems like it's going great and that makes me very happy. All I imagine is that beautiful smile of yours lightening up the place. I miss you already and know that I can't wait to hold you once again when you return. If you have the opportunity to read this then I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip cutie. I love you :)

I hate Gio. That bastard got this stupid song stuck in my head. Lately we've been listening to some of the worst hip hop music we could find and this one is pretty high up there. Their names are Lil' Debbie and V Nasty. HAHAHAHA. I recently starting following both of them on twitter and its hilarious to read their tweets.

I wonder why there aren't many people who ride bicycles to heavy metal. The fitting seems perfect: fast paced music + fast paced activity (or life threaten depending on how you look at it). That's just me though, then again I have a pretty biased opinion

Neck In The Hemp

I'm going through a minor metal withdrawal. As much as I love Mastodon, In Flames, Northwind and Arch Enemy, my brain just can't deal with them at the moment. They come up so much on my shuffle that it makes me cringe. I can't sit through their songs anymore. I took them off my Bike Playlist since they do me no good anymore, and yesterday while listening to my entire iPod on shuffle, the second, third and fourth songs were Arch Enemy, Northwind and In Flames...out of 1,500 songs!!!!!!

I'm going through something similar with Amon Amarth, but it's borderline at this point. New releases by DevilDriver, Norma Jean, Chimaira and Huntress have definitely softened the blow. After "I Want To Fuck You To Death" and "Blood Sisters," Huntress' Starbound Beast wasn't convincing me but "Zenith" was that one song that had the first album all over it and rips big time. Norma Jean's Wrongdoers reminds me a lot of Redeemer just without the awesome cover. Some songs like "If You Got It At Five, You Got It At Fifty" and "Neck In The Hemp" are reminders of what made O' God, The Aftermath so special, chaos. And since I first heard it, DevilDriver's "The Appetite" is my favorite song of the whole album. The catchy opening riff and the chorus. Oh yeah baby. "I'm beggin' I'm beggin' I'm beggin' I'm BEGGIN' YOU!!!!!!!"

Throwing this in here just because :)

I went to Target today with my mom and the cashier saw my black nails and was surprised because she had never seen a guy with black nails. It felt good inside. That is all. Boring story, yes I know.
