I love games more than anything in the world (at the moment)
^ I've never been to a wedding before either. I just got invited to one last month by an old acquaintance/classmate, and was kinda freaking out about it until I realized the year was for 2013. Glad they're planning ahead, but why send out invites if it's not going to be for another year? It was over FB, but still.So I'll be attending my first wedding in May. Never been to one before and I'm anticipated epic boring times. Mine is the only invitation that says "Michael + partner" on it. Thank you for making my single life so partonising!
Despite that, my mum is pushing me to invite a female friend along. Why would I want to take someone who doesn't know these people to their wedding? I barely know them myself! What to do, what to do....
What! Take someone?! How does she expect you to hook up with a lonely lady at the wedding if you take someone? Pfft! Moms, always trying to ruin your game and get in the way of a chance for one night of passion.
I was chatting to someone at work about it and they think meeting other single girls there might be the way to go, and I think that's going to happen. I might take my own car so I can leave early if I want to.
My random discovery for the day: Interruption science is actually a thing. Apparently. People get paid to do some pretty weird stuff.

Im psyching myself up to meet up with my parents for supper tonight, well my mom, I doubt my dad will go too and risk having to look at me. Too many dang questions are going to be asked. I always feel so defenceless against them, they always find something to put me down with. Maybe I can ask to sit at a different table then them, lol
I'm sorry, Drummer, that sounds tough. I know how parents can be sometimes.
I have no idea why they are so ruthless and judgmental.
Your a cool guy, Drummer, and you have alot going for you. Don't let any make you think other wise.
thanks angel! I try not to let them bother me too much. They've been giving me a hard time since I've decided to choose a career in music rather than Physics but I always try and let them know that Physics isn't out the equation, I might go back to it later, I just feel like living right NOW. My mom tries to be pretty supportive which doesn't surprise me. Me and her have always been fairly close but I can still see that she doesn't fully get it. I don't want to be ilke everyone I went to school with. Graduate, get a nice shinny career, get married, get kids and then realize how I should have lived when I was young. Im only 24, still got lots of life left. I still study everyday as if I was still in school. Physics and Astronomy are just as much of an obsession as music is to me. I like it now because I learn everything I want to learn, at my own pace, my own way, plus Ive been going back through some of the course work I did in my Undergraduates degree, like some of the material I was not so strong in, to help me better understand things, mainly maths and stuff. Im more of a theoretical type. Was always horrible in the lab, like Oppenheimer was lol. STOP, I'm babbling too much now
I think what your doing makes more sense then the traditional way. I'm kinda in the same place right now.

Public speaking is very terrifying! My advice is keep it short - under 2 minutes - and just say what you write and nothing more. It'll be over before you know it.on the topic of weddings my sister is getting married next month and being maid of honour I have to give a speech. Haven't started writing it and have been dreading it since the day she announced her engagement (almost 2 years ago now!)
ugh public speaking terrifies me
Hmm, you have no excuse not to attend now, if it's that far in advance. Bring a friend along most definitely just so you have a buffer there if things get awkward with others. I'm not dancing, either...unless they want me to pick an inanimate object as my partner. Haha.^ I've never been to a wedding before either.

So I have a year to consider it. I'll most likely go, since I've never been to one. Although, there are going to be over 100 people there, and I hardly know any of them. :S I might bring a friend along just so I don't have to go alone, that is if I don't have a partner by then, which I most likely won't. I do not plan on dancing though. Nope, no way, not a chance in the world.
Hindsight would've told you to hit on some of the bridesmaids!i tried this a couple of times
unfortunately, i was the groom
silly rules
You're younger than me so you've got loads and loads of time on your hands to pursue physics. Music is your current and big passion and it takes priority. I can understand why your parents would be fretting about it but you have to believe in what you're doing and that's all that matters. I'm sure my parents, especially my mum, frets about me on some issues. All that matters is that you enjoy and are passionate about what you're doing, which you are, so keep making some great tunes and express yourself!thanks angel!

I try to be more healthy all the time. Exercise is not the issue, it's my diet. It's beyond poor. I need to have your motivation, Deadman. Lend me some! I hope you can get the buff body you want!On a side note, Deadman's going to try to be more healthy from now on. I'm going to cut down on the sweets and (try to) not eat as much! I've been putting it off, but I'll be going to the gym one day soon, like real soon. I want to shed some lbs and get some fancy muscles to show off!

Random thought: I would like to get a tattoo. A part of a song lyric that really means so much to me.
I've been thinking about getting a tattoo at some point to. I can't decide what, though. It's so hard to make up your mind on an image that's going to be attached to you for the rest of your life. It's definitely something I'm going to get at some point, though. Tattoos seem beautiful and symbolic.
