I thought I'd throw a little something up here because I haven't past through here in over a month.
R.I.P Jimmy "The Rev" Sullivan February 10, 1981 – December 28, 2009
Never again will he twirl a drumstick like the badass he is. Never again will he be laying down some sick rhythms on one of A7X's songs. Never again will he act a fool and crack me up.
And while I didn't know him as a friend I did know as a fan through his music. It upsets me to know that I didn't even get to see him alive in concert doing what he loved and kicked ass at it.
In light of recent events I've realized life is very fleeting and anyone can go at anytime. And while this is very terrifying to think about this is all the more reason to live life to the fullest extent and not sit on your ass and bitch about how life sucks.
So here's my list:
See one of my favorite bands in concert
Do marching band in college
Travel the US
Become a band director
Learn how to shoot a gun/cross bow
Do a zombie walk
Partake in the Running of the Bulls

Write a book
Go to space (Or float like I'm in space)
That's in for now. I'll add more later. And eventually cross some off.
I went to one of my relative's funeral yesterday. Her daughter had to take care of everything because she was an only child. Don't feel bad for me I didn't know them too well & I hadn't seen them since 2003/2004.
But these are somethings I learned:
Exactly how much I loved my mother & that I'd be way devastated if she died.
The person who's dead has the least of the problems.
Just how grimy people can be. [People were making off with stuff from the mom's house the day she died. THE BODY'S NOT EVEN COLD YET!!!!]
Just how rude & disrespectful people can be at the internment [People were standing around chatting & laughing & telling jokes the ENTIRE time!]
You'll know who exactly are your true friends.
Get a lawyer.

P.S. School's tomorrow, meaning expect a blog drought.
Well I've been wanting to write a blog about this for awhile now.
So I believe in a God okay. I think I believe in Jesus too. So that would make me Christian by default right?
From that point on I think I pretty much stray from typical Christian beliefs.
I believe gay people should be allowed to be together & abortion should be handled on a case-by-case basis. Sex before marriage is okay as long as you're in a steady long-lasting love filled relationship & the time is right. Drugs & excessive alcohol is bad and all of the 10 commandments pretty much apply.
I don't think I fit the Christian mold though, I believe in evolution after all.
I don't think there's perfect right religion or that any bible or religious text is 100% accurate & precise because they were written by humans. Something(s) are bound to be changed over hundreds of years.
I don't think there's a religion that totally mirrors my beliefs. Maybe I'll just have to make my own. Maybe I'm totally wrong & I'm signing my permission slip for eternal damnation by writing this. Oh well.
Speaking of the afterlife I think there is one. I think there is a heaven & a hell and if you were a good person despite what you did/n't believe you'll get to heaven 7 if you're terrible person you'll get to make buddies with the devil in the end.
I believe what comes around goes around and if you do good you are rewarded. Everything happens for a reason & while some things are fated to be what you choose to do has its effects.
And there are times when I wish I had a definite belief in a religion complete with the biases so I could know for sure if I did this that would happen & I could have a set definition of right & wrong. Everything could be black & white with no shades of gray.
But that entire concept goes against my personality. Rofl.
I think in the end most people claim a religion simply because they're afraid to die & what comes afterward because at least with a religion whether you're good or bad you take some comfort in knowing exactly where you're going.
My problem is I don't know where I'm going and whether it exists or not...

P.S. Guys, I think I'm an agnostic thesist; Someone who believes there's a god but they're not sure that they exist.
