Big new song. Lots of stuff going on right now, this is the best thing I've written in a while. I just saw Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind the other night, that was an amazing film. I think there are some elements of that in the song. I think I'm gonna put that movie up there on my list of touching movies: Edward Scissorhands, What Dreams May Come, and Big Fish to name a few more from that list.

Free day from class. Didn't do anything so its no big deal. I've got another song up.
 
4/14/04
More and more time passing by... I've got a new song up now. The title came from the movie Basic, "Degrees of Truth." I originally started writing it the other day about liars and cheats abusing the trust of other people. The more I wrote the more I realized how close it came to me at different times in my life. If the last part seems tacked on and out of place, its cause I was looking for some hope, some way back to being good and right. I hope there is. Forgiveness doesn't come easily sometimes, it shouldn't. I guess what I want to say is that each passing day is a chance to make up for who you were the day before. I'm realizing more and more that I'm letting too many of those chances slip away, its easier not to fight for them. The days are changing, I'm not... there's something wrong with that. I used to say "all you can do is say you're sorry"... I've done that, its obvious to me that there needs to be something more than that. 
 
Oh and its my older brother's birthday... Happy b-day chico

How come I can only write in spurts these days? I don't like it. Ah well I updated the about me part of the site cause I haven't written in a while.
 
 
3/1/04
Guess I was wrong, as usual. Its a beautiful day and so of course I had to write another sad song lol. This one's good though. At least I like it.... What?... You don't like it?... well screw you guys, I'm going home! }:^) (beefcake!!!)
 
2/26/04
Another song for the optimists up. I guess i've been on a roll lately. I have an odd feeling its gonna end soon. If anyone's still reading this just show a little life here and there if you will. enjoy

Mon DIEU!!! two posts... one week... endless rioting.... Welcome to the Return of the living DEAD!!!!  MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHA
 
2/23/04
New song... got class... talk later
Update: Well I've got a little break so yeah here goes... I've got that new song up, most complete song I've written in a while, still working on a couple others too hopefully I'll get some more done. Inspiration is hard to come by sometimes and keeping it all in my head is hard. It all seems to seep out pretty quickly when I start writing. Anywho maybe there'll be more soon.

Hey hey hey everybody,
New year, new song, new school. Since I've been in this place, WPI, I hadn't written much, but here we go again, its still in the works... like an infant, so kill it now and we can probably get a good dead baby joke out of it. -Orlando

I guess when i said i know had some kind of regularity, i didn't really mean it lol. Guess i haven't found much time for this with lots of thinking thats been going on, and things i've been doing so i wouldn't have to think, you know how it goes. Well my bands first song is somewhat recorded, we need to retrack some guitar parts and i wanna see about redoing my vocals (which btw suck). Got a new song up, lately i've been working on structure a bit, see if i can't get more "typical" styles in. thats all for now
 
4/15/03
Looks like i'm finally back on some sort of regular pattern. I guess these past few months have been hectic really and i need something stable. i felt a desire to return to this. to return and change things, fix things, make them better. Its about time i let the floodgates go and show as much of me as i can, at least writing wise, i figure this is the best place to do it. Recently i've been writing a lot, one day in particular, when i found out a member of my class of 2003 had died, i wound up writing 4 songs in a single day. things i haven't been sharing and showing, i think i'm gonna be here more often again. it feels right to go back to the past right now, maybe take the past with me to my future, maybe its just insecurity. anyways theres at least one new song up today.
 
4/13/03
Time for a downer. Man i haven't felt like this in forever. I feel pretty alone, not long before i have to go to work either, definitley not the place i'd like to be. Really though right now i dont' think there is a place i'd like to be. Nobody's gonna read this so i guess it doesn't do much good to write anything here. I wish i could make sense of my feelings at this point, its all so jumbled up and i know theres no one i can talk to about this stuff. I've always said i dont' need anyone or anyones help. I've never let anyone in, never truly in, not like anyone's really shown any interest. no thats wrong some people have, 2 people. one seemed pushed away by it, sometimes it seems like its the only reason the other holds on. i wanna say whats in my head right now but i'm afraid someone will read it so i guess they'd have to ask and i'm not sure what i'll say when they do ask, or how they'll respond. i'm not sure how i can be this way all over again, it sucks not knowing. if you wanna know something i can tell you then ask, please ask i'm not in the mood to sprinkle this information everywhere.
 
1/1/03
Look at that, its been so long since i've updated the site, phew lol. dear god, whats that 3 months! wow. well anywhoo, I just got back from what proved to be the greatest thing to ever happen to me, I visited Krystal/alexia for a couple of days, I just hope i haven't gotten her into any trouble with her parents now. other than that lil possibility its all good in the neighborhood.
 
10/25/02
New song, nothing else new, well, might put another one up later, hehe, and of course hehe *me and alexia sitting in a tree! k-i-s-s-i-n-g* hehe, i'm so immature sometimes lol.
 
10/23/02
Another new song.
 
10/22/02
New song again, hehe I really like this one. I wrote it on the bus in between moshing by myself to some of the greatest songs I've ever heard (namely American Nightmare's Farewell and AM/PM; and Everytime I Die's Punch Drunk Punk Rock Romance and The Logic of Crocodiles). Good thoughts seem to plague my life lol (good thoughts about Her }:^), but I definitely don't mind).
 
10/17/02
New day, new song. I just felt like writing so I wrote and it came out pretty well I think. Hope you enjoy it all! Damn, who am I talking to really lol. I bet I look insane at this point. I'm better off just saying "ladedadeda" all the way home lol. Only about 3 people read it (then again, just this one person reading it makes it all worthwhile if you ask me }:^), you know who you are right?)
 
10/15/02
Well today is an important day for me and my friends. It was this day last year that we lost a friend, Donald Reardon. I had just met him, but we were getting along amazingly. Anyways I wonder if we'd be good friends if he were still around. I miss him sometimes, but I've never felt pain from it, it just makes me remember the people around me I guess. Its hard to describe. I wrote a song earlier today so thats up now.
 
10/13/02 (Two updates in less than 2 weeks, i must be crazy lol)
A new song, and a new concert coming up. Oct 26 - Back to School Jam -> Converge, Slapshot, Some Kind Of Hate, Reach the Sky, and a couple of others. Theres also the Mushroomhead/Shadows Fall on that day, and Boy Sets Fire/Atreyu/(someone i don't remember lol). Too many concerts all on one day, but do you really think I'm gonna pass up on Converge? Not on your life, unless of course you're name is Krystal Willey hehe, then i'd definiltey have to stay just for you.
 
10/03/02 (just barely lol)
Well its been a while, as usual, not much happens in my life on a day to day basis, but every now and then big things do happen. I feel bad for not putting this up the day it happened, but I can make up for it here, hehe, I've got a girlfriend now (woohoo yippie yay for me), its Alexia, so schore! Hehe, now on to the lesser business (although its still pretty damn high on the list), I've got a new song up. I've been writing a lot, just haven't felt like posting much, but now I did so shove it (j/k). Anywhooo, I'm working on a secret project, shhhhh, can't tell you yet though, not like anyones listening at this point anyways lol. See you later O_O ooooh!

Yesterday was Skatefest, for all who don't know, this is an annual concert here in Mass. Its a bunch of hardcore and punk bands. The punk pretty much sucked unfortunately, but luckily the hardcore was as pure as can be. Haste was really the first good band and from there it went straight up. The best were Boy Sets Fire, Purity's Failure, The Hope Conspiracy, Unearth, and my personal pick for best show of the day AN (originally American Nightmare, now officially American Nothing, but usually AN from now on I guess). It was an amazing set, it ran long with their last song "Hearts" a personal favorite. They cut power because it ran long just at the end and the crowd just sang the rest: "Screaming gets you nothing! Another night in this fucking town, Screaming gets you nothing, I swear to god that I'm fucking dead, Screaming gets you nothing i drew a heart around the name of your city...!!!!" It was an amazingly beautiful experience, I wish I could have shared it with others that would appreciate it. Anyways, kind of in respect to that and the way I was feeling earlier, I've got a new song up.
 
P.S. Dillenger Escape Plan is playing in a couple of weeks, Sept 24 at the Palladium, its gonna be amazing!
 
9/13/02
Another song up. Been working on my schools literary magazine thingy, also had my hand in the creation of a declaration of independence for a class, something i actually volunteered for and wanted to do for the sake of doing it and nothing more. Amazing, it came out really well, maybe we can change things with it. Feeling good in case anyone wanted to know (and if you didn't too bad you already read it so now you know no matter what, so HA!).
 
9/6/02
2 new songs up, maybe more later on too, its been a while though hasn't it.
Not much to say really, things in life are looking pretty darn good, hehehe. Well I guess thats all, see whoever it is that reads this later then.
 
8/10/02
Hello all. Just a quick little note for everyone here and maybe a song or two. My computer has been having some issues and it keeps crashing on me, in fact i just spent about 15 minutes just trying to get it to boot up properly, I hope
its not a hardware issue and its just a virus or something like that. Anyways if I'm not online thats probably the reason why.
 
7/28/02
Put up a couple of new songs for you all to read. Neither feels quite complete so any ideas are welcome. Picked up a couple of new cds yesterday, Unearth - The Stings of Conscience, and Most Precious Blood - Nothing In Vain, both great cds. God I love hardcore.
 
7/18/02
Put a new song up. Time between writing is getting longer and longer lately. Hopefully that will change.
 
7/12/02
My computer is back to working condition. Windows 98 saves the day again. If you look really closely at the date of this update you'll see that well, I'm not at Hellfest. It sucks, I know, so unfair, but thats life. I've got the weekend off from work now but nothing to do... I'll find something.
 
7/8/02
Ay yi yi, this sucks. My computer just got a new 100 gig hard drive, yay right? Wrong! I now have no operating system, and I'm not getting Windows XP, so I had to order windows 98 so that will take a couple of days. This means I have little time online, so sorry if I'm unable to talk to anyone. See you all later!
 
7/6/02
No site update today, but I felt like writing something here. If anyone cares, I'll be getting the Cowboy Bebop Perfect sessions from ebay about a week from Monday. Damn this is a slow day, everyday since school ended has been slow, but this week has been even worse. On better news I'll be going to Hellfest, no question about it now. Yay.
Despodency seems to be the mood of the day for me, I just don't feel like anything anymore, whatever that means. I've come to the conclusion that thinking is bad, but is not thinking any better? I guess I just feel aimless at this point, any suggestions? Anyways judging by my guestbook, not too many people come here. Don't know why I mentioned it but I did so there.
 
7/2/02
New song up. Having a kind of rut I guess, its actually an older song of mine I put up to help out a good friend of mine. Anyways, stuck inside from this damn heat, so alone so very alone.....
 
6/26/02
Added a couple of songs today, one I wrote today, the other I wrote a couple of days ago. Still no word one the sendacrush thing so I'm wondering if its just a hoax at this point.
Its been a pretty boring summer, very lonely at times. I get little human contact most of the time. Its times like these that make you wonder about things, like what someone means to you. I guess I'm just realizing how important some people are to me, even if I can't really express it. Anyways I'm done for the day.
 
6/18/02
Been a while since last update so heres the news. Put up a couple of new songs since the first one. Heres another thing, someone apparently had/has a crush on me and sent me a note through www.sendacrush.com (to kirthg666@sluggy.net) I've tried a couple of things and haven't figured it out yet. If it was you just send me a long a little hint either on the guestbook i have or some other way, I just need help here thanks.
 
5/31/02
I'm going to do it. I'm going to add some songs and stuff to my website now. Yay. Not like anyone is  going to read them anyways.
 
5/19/02
More free time leads to more for the site. My regular email server is back on its feet so if you want you can get in touch with me there again. I'm going to get a pic of my paintball gun up here sometime soon. I'll have a before and after shot. I may be getting a new body too. God I love buying stuff for my paintball gun. I guess thats it.
 
5/9/02
Dear God 2 posts one week, whats wrong with me? Actually my problem is that my main email server is down so if you want to email me do so through kirthg666@sluggy.net at least for the time being. I'll keep you updated.
 
5/7/02
Hey check it out, an update, sweet. I just added some stuff to my band page. I'll probably do more sometime soon, but I wouldn't hold my breath.
 
1/14/02
Well, its a new year, again nothing's different. Been in a bit of a writing slump, not like it makes a difference to the cold hard world of the internet, though I did write something really good today, maybe I'll share it. Got a chance to watch Planet of the Apes, the new one. Review is up. Oh and I may be going to a concert on the second of February in Lawrence: as far as I know its Diecast, Cannae, and others. 8 bucks little bit of info at www.bhcdiecast.com

12/13/01
I am now officially 17 years old. Woop te do! Nothing seems all to different, so whatever. Anyways I've added to the movie reviews, and I've just started to read "Fight Club" so yay to all, plus I got a nifty little guestbook. I'm thinking of adding a Daily journal type thing too.

12/03/01
Well, I've got a pic of me up, the about me section. I don't know if I'm going to do anything else with this site. I have the time, just no real motivation, like with all too many things lately. Added some other stuff too.

11/11/01
Alright check it out, I've decided that today I'd start to work on this page. It'll probably change a lot from here on out, but we've all got to start somewhere don't we.

Quake 3; Actual size=HUGE(1024*760)

Quake 3, thats right. One of my favorite games, mainly for all the mods fans make, especially URBAN TERROR. Anyways, I do not have that kind of artistic talent, I got this from Quake 3: The Wall, you can find a link at planetQuake. I don't know who the artist is but if you know, I'd appreciate the information so I can truly show respect to him/her.
