I went to Guitar Center today to look for my new guitar which i shall be recieving for my birthday. Luckily i have a grandmother who feels that money should be spent without question on things dealing with music. I practically had to beg her to not purchase one today because i would like to shop around. I found a takamine that i really liked because of the sound. The looks however are a little boring for my taste. I have an idea that i would like some feed back about. This is a complete eric original so no one that i know of has made this mistake before. I'm thinking it would be cool to take a stencil and use spray paint maybe to decorate my guitar. This would be awesome if i could make it look good. I don't know if i'm really going to do this because i really do'nt wanna ruin my guitar but if i could get it to work it would be amazing. I have been looking at stencils and i've found a rose one that i'm thinking i could blend with a barb wire one and make look really good. I would like for my readers to comment about this and help me out, thank you.

My Favorite shirt

My Favorite shirt

I would like to tell a story about my favorite shirt and how i went about obtaining it. On our second trip to the Diriamba dump I noticed a boy about my age walking around with a shirt that said "wet willie" on the front. I and a few of my peers thought this was one of the coolest shirts we had ever seen. After getting enough encouragement from that same group of peers i approached this boy and started to converse with him. After making friends i decided it was time to talk business. In my limited spanish i asked him if he would like to trade shirts with me. This was a good deal for him considering his shirt was dirty and had a few holes and stains in it, this however is considered "vintage" in the united states. He looked like he thought there was something strange about a gringo walking up to him and simply asking to swap shirts so i explained how much i liked the shirts and added one hundred cordobas to the deal (about 6 american dollars) He quickly agreed and i got myself a very cool shirt for only a clean white purple cow t-shirt, which was a pretty sweet shirt anyway, and six dollars. When i got home i was informed that this shirt was an old Willie Nelson tour shirt. The humorous part of this story is that the white purple cow shirt i traded with him happend to be a favorite shirt of Robyn's that she left at my house on accident and wanted back asap and although she does like the shirt was not happy that i traded a shirt of hers that she got at a restaurant in Little Rock.

Ironic

My GOD is funny. I've been wanting to do something at the shelter and then i complained about not being able to in my last post. The day after that something really weird happened. My mom asked me what thing i'd wanna do to help volunteer and an A day or B day would be better for me to miss. I know she doesn't know my blog site, she doesn't even know what a blog is. So my excuses are gone. She came to me asking when i could give up school time to help. It's almost like GOD knows what HE'S doing and can take care of things.

Worthless

I feel like a jerk. I've been doing very little with the hurricane. And these aren't my words so don't think i'm some amazing theologian, but the reason this thing happened was to glorify God believe it or not and it's our responsibility as Christians to make a difference. I, however, feel like i've done very little. My personality is the kind where i wanna be on the main scene. I want to be at the shelters with the evacuees spending time with them but i haven't done that. Sure i've done little things that somehow helped everything happen but i don't feel like i've made a difference. The things i've done are behind the scene and i'm really disappointed in myself for not doing more. I want to give up a few days of school to go to the Southern University shelter that parkview has kinda adopted but there is one problem, Cathy Landry. Sure she let me miss a week to go to Nicaragua last year but i'm afraid she'll refuse to let me. She'll say i can go on saturdays, saturdays however will be the day everyone goes. There needs to be a difference between the Christian volunteers and all the other voluteers and that difference needs to be the love and service we put out. I will only be sacrificeing a few hours of sleep on Saturday and my services won't be needed as much. I just got yelled at for something and she's in a bad mood so i won't ask tonight

Hungry and Tired

I go back to school tomorrow from my little 9 day vacation. This means my blogging will resume as well. School means homework and homework means blogs. In fact i have to write a two page autobiography about my reading history. I think i'll go shower and then consider starting on that.
