Awesome Day At The Park/Weird Dream

Hey dudes, General Rubes reporting for duty. Sorry for not writing the last two nights, I was just too tired man. I love that old song from The Killers, All These Things That I Have Done. Kris Allen performed it at that American Idol concert, and ever since then it's like I rediscovered the song for myself. I do that a lot with music on my iTunes, just put it on shuffle and see what comes up. Na mean, playa? My night of sleep really sucked. I mean, it was bad. I left the AC on low the whole time so i woke up all sweaty and shit. No bueno.

You know there's one thing I always take for granted about where I live. You see, I live in a tall building on one of the top floors. I can deadass see Manhattan from my living room and I have a balcony too. Yeah, be jealous. Lulz. But we never use the balcony, ever. It's just there. I've been using it lately more though, to go outside and play my guitar on it.

I had a great day at Central Park today with my cousin who's named after the Lord and a few of his friends. We threw the frisbee around the whole day and just chilled, good freakin times man. It was I think 7 of us only, but we still had fun. We were there most of the day, and it showed - we were all tired as shit by the time we left. It's funny how I've been exercising at home ever since the commencement of Rubes' weight loss challenge, but today i did by far the most exercise that I did this whole summer in one day. My legs are aching like shit though, =/. It was really hot today, like 90 something at one point.

I've been practicing my new song lately and it's awesome, but there's a problem with all my songs: they sound like shit, no matter how good I play the guitar! Know why? Cuz i can't sing for my life! I sound so terrible when I sing =(. SO....if anyone who dorms at St. John's knows how to sing, and is willing to teach me, it would be much appreciated. That would be beyond awesome... cuz then my songs would actually sound good, haha.. I mean the guitar part I have down mostly, its just the vocals that need TREMENDOUS work. If I could sing, my songs would sound awesome. I thought about getting someone who knows how to sing to sing them while I play the guitar but I'd rather do it myself, considering I wrote them all by myself.

I'm listening to what I think is the most chill song ever made, Stellar by Incubus. It's just so calm and mellow. I had a really weird dream last night.... I'll tell you guys what I remember.

For some reason I was in my dad's car with the lady from the Chinese food store. I guess we were waiting for my dad? Idk. So the car was parked, but out of nowhere the Chinese food lady puts the car in drive while no ones in the driver's seat! I'm like "wtfff!" So I hop into the driver's seat and start drving, or trying to, cuz I'm not a good or experienced driver. So we end up driving up this ramp that led to a school's parking lot. Something happened that I forgot but we ended up driving back down the ramp and I hit someone's car. It was just a fender bender, but we both pulled into the gas station across the street. My mom somehow came out of nowhere, and kept telling me to give the other people in the car my dad's insurance number when I think they wanted money. So they drove away, we went back home, and somehow my dad was with us and the chinese food lady was gone. Then I was sitting outside my building and I heard the Grudge sound coming from behind a van parked on my block. I was getting freaked out, cuz that movie scared the shit out of me when I saw it. And then I woke up.

That was really weird man, I mean it doesn't top my weirdest dream ever, but it's still quite odd. I mean what was the chinese food lady in my dad's car for? Why was the Grudge sound coming from behind that van? All these questions and more answered on the next episode of.... The Rubes Files.

Lol.
