So I've been redoing my myspace as of late--going around and updating the personal information and boring facts that nobody really reads but people just put up there to feel less alone--and I noticed that the titles of my blogs were, for the most part depressing. Then I realized that I really only blog when I'm upset and I want to express my depression or anguish and let it float out on the web for all infinity. I decided to try to balance out the scales by blogging while I'm not unhappy.
Actually, since the time of my last blog that was brought to you from Cambridge, England, I've had the opportunity to get absolutely no rest. See, at 4 in the morning on the day after graduation, I left for Europe. I spent a week in England, two weeks in Romania, and then we came home. Two days after arriving in Seattle, I returned to the school to start training for Summer Ministry Teams, and have been on the road for the last 8 weeks since then, doing services and camps in Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, and Montana. So, in the course of this summer, my intrepid friend Warren and I will have traveled over 20,000mi! (The circumference of the earth at it's equator is only 24,000mi.) Needless to say, I'm exhausted and fulfilled in ways that I never knew was possible. That's right, so far I've weekended in London, Budapest, Romania, Denver, Salt Lake City, and Glacier National Park. I've driven through the Rockies and seen some of the most beautiful scenery available to us in this country.
So, things are good right now. I haven't written much in the way of lyric or poetry because that tends to come best in the monotony of a daily routine, but my compositions tend to flourish when exciting things are going on in my life. I'm reading a book that contains interviews from about 40 record producers from all over the globe, and I decided that that's pretty much what I was designed to do. So I'm going to have to figure that one out...
Umm, I'm beginning to think that I don't usually blog during the good times because that turns into rambling more than anything, which is an activity that I currently find myself participating in... I'll let you get back to your own lives. Now the scales are tipped, and people won't think I'm just depressed all the time. :D
