I guess. I hate school.

And I got 100% for my Business Economics test last week.

im very excited for its arrival!
twas a bargain too on ebay, i was going to spend about £220 on it from a guitar website

[captainofbeef]

Its a nice guitar, little too traditional for me, but its a solid choice. Relatively cheap too.

I'm directing a play on the seven deadly sins, yay!

I'm going to a masquerade ball on Wednesday.

I'm about to suffocate under all the schoolwork, it's like tripled this year.

I like the fact it has a dreadnought body but still has a cutaway, it's an ideal middle ground. What sort of guitar do you have beef?

Today my tickets for speed the plow came which I am very very excited about. The production at the old vic in London is starring Kevin Spacey and Jeff Goldblum

Finally to top off a great news day i have an unconditional offer at te new universdity I've applied to and wanted to go to most. I never mentioned it but the one I did go didn't work out for me so i'm working up until September.

Best day in ages for me ;D

I have an Ibanez electro-acoustic, I'm at school right now so I don't know the exact number of the model though. I'll post it when I get home.

[mixed]

cool man. I did quite a lot of research and was thinking of getting an ibanez but the one i was interested in seemed to have buzz problems from various reviews i read, so it deterred me.

[ie]

I just have two generic Yamaha guitars. One's acoustic and the other's electric.

[mixed]

Hmm interesting. Yamahas make a beautiful noise but I didn't want to get the same guitar as somebody I know has so searched for something else. Plus it wasn't a cutaway which I really desired.

Sure, it is nice to have a high quality unique guitar, but really, I don't care about getting the best guitar, or the most unique guitar. I'm not really that great at playing and having a more expensive guitar won't help any.

[mixed]

No, a better guitar can't make you better, of course. I'm upgrading because the guitar I have now has a terrible neck and all the strings are so high off the fret it's a joke. Can't even play barre chords on it because it's so dreadfully built. This new one will be a nice enhancement because I think the general poor quality of my current guitar has been holding me back a lot.

[ie]

Oh yeah, well, if your old guitar was built like a brick shithouse, then yeah, a new guitar is going to be a much better option. I don't know, I guess I just don't have any interest in guitar brands or anything.

To me, it's not like computer parts. You have good manufacturers and then you have bad ones, where you can tell the difference on which part you use based on durability and also performance. But with guitars, maybe one looks a little bit nicer... but that's about it. Maybe I'm just not that privvy about guitars like you guys.

[mixed]

Heh I'm really not very privvy, I've just crammed a lot of homework into my new purchase. I barely know anything about guitars. When I was searching I discovered things like certain guitars are only good for solos and backup and things. I feel out of my depth

It sounds like you did a lot of your homework for Full Of Shit 101.

Really, I do understand how not every guitar is built the same, and some of those expensive guitars are probably worth their price tags, but it sounds like those people are suggesting that you need their guitar, or their favorite guitar brand, in order to do a proper solo. Bet they can't even play a solo. Ah well.

Hey man, sorry if it seems like I'm really being cynical toward your ideas. It's nothing personal against you.

For what it's worth, at least you're actually playing your guitar. I play a little bit if I can, but I haven't got the led out in quite a while. Not that I really had any led at all, but I mean, I haven't breaked out the amp in well over two years.

[mixed]

Heh don't worry, its just stuff I read and am retelling here, I don't care in the slightest!

Okay, just seemed like you were taking it too personally. ;D

[mixed]

Not at all!

[ie]

I'm probably late on this one, but Scarlett Johansson sung a song, Summertime, and is actually quite good. Now I hear she'll put out an album of Tom Waits songs? Where's Agent Knight when you need him to drool over everything?

[mixed]

That's very random...I can't imagine her singing something like big in Japan or Stripped down

[sacrilegend]

I hope she doesn't, I'll puke. She'll ruin it so badly!

[ie]

I may not know the type of music she was singing there, but it seemed good enough to me. So I'm optimistic.


Random: I figured out a quick and dirty way to get rid of canker sores.

I asked my dentist recently how to get rid of them, and he said that you basically need to re-injure them and they'll heal. Apparently, kiwis will do it, and I got some canker sore medicine (one-time use little packets) that also work. It stings a little bit, but it works.

But the quick and dirty way is to basically take your toothbrush and rub the hell out of it. Oh sure, it hurts pretty bad at first, but I had a pretty bad one without any more medicine, so long-term stinging hurts more than one sharp re-injury and it kicked its ass proper. ;D

[sacrilegend]

What the hell is a canker sore?

By the way, guys, I uninstalled AIM because my computer was too full.

[sacrilegend]

And I have recess right now (means no school Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday). Yay... (not really, I've got too much homework).

Why is there an advert at the top of my page saying: The Tails of Vendetta: A Unicorn and Horse Pig of War?
