If you haven't seen 'Driving by Braille' at a film festval yet, then go see it...

Great film written and produced by my friend Rich. It has won Best Produced Screenplay, Best Female Director for Kristina Lloyd, and is runner up for Best Picture, at AOF.

I had the most amazing Saturday in a very long time...

     First real day off in a long time; i had no work, gig, lesson to teach, or drum corps event.

     Started the day off by taking the time and cooking a real breakfast. Getting to wear whatever i want and not thinking about changing into work clothes is an amazing feeling. I had the chance to wear a collared shirt with rolled sleeves, and my nice grey jeans, which is my favourite feeling.  

     I had a very exorbitant description of my day, but it’s easier to say it was awesome. I  had a productive fun afternoon, ate great food, saw friends I haven’t seen in months, ended up in LA by midnight, met new people, and didn’t come home until 4 in the morning.

“You have to question a cinematic culture which preaches artistic expression, and yet would support a decision that is clearly a product of a patriarchy-dominant society, which tries to control how women are depicted on screen. The MPAA is okay supporting scenes that portray women in scenarios of sexual torture and violence for entertainment purposes, but they are trying to force us to look away from a scene that shows a woman in a sexual scenario, which is both complicit and complex. It’s misogynistic in nature to try and control a woman’s sexual presentation of self. I consider this an issue that is bigger than this film. … There is something very distorted about this reality that they’ve created, which is that it is OK to torture women on screen. Any kind of violence towards women in a sexual scenario is fine. But give a woman pleasure? No way. Not a chance. That’s pornography.” —

Ryan Gosling, actor and feminist, in a letter protesting the NC-17 rating of Blue Valentine. The rating was based on one consensual sex scene. (via snowstorminjuly)

Got back home around 4 AM this morning.

More info of how tour went, coming soon.

I wasn’t in the mood to type earlier. >.<

I was at both of your comps this weekend… Great shows.

Thank you. :]
I have not been able to see a show of yours since you usually perform before us.
&Hmm, I actually think that I saw you wandering around & following a friend & I to the horn arc. Hahaha.

Yeah that was totally me…i love roaming the lot, you guys were tucked way away in the corner, I wanted to hear some of your warmups and stuff, but i missed it.

I was cheering for you to bring it during your pre-show, hope you found it encouraging.

A review of my Drum Corps Hornline from last weekend...

The show took place at Colony HS in Ontario, California and for people who aren’t familiar with Colony….. The school is located NEXT to a Cow farm. So the smell isn’t exactly “pleasant” but you get used to it!

Wasn’t too hot! But the wind was killer, I knew it would be a problem for the guard…. Dx

So the first corps was….

Socal Dream:

A very small corps that packs a punch when needed! Strongest 14 person hornline I have ever heard! The impact points were so powerful, especially considering the numbers! Each member looked like they were having a blast performing their show! The energy was great, but I just wish there were more performers. This show with more performers? Wow. Great show! Did the best they could considering the size. Man, the power of that last chord. Sounded as loud as a group 3 times their size at the end!

MTV's How To Pick Up A Girl Based On Her Favorite Band

yelyahwilliams:

istillloveparamore:

Paramore fans have deep, deep emotions. Read her that terrible poem you wrote when your first love broke your heart. Score an extra five points if you can play it on guitar. Also, you should probably stop picking up chicks at Hot Topic.

yes, because all of our fans are weaklings who wear crabcore tee shirts…. 

oh mtv. just shut up and start playing music videos already. 

Oh Hayley… that last sentence, preach it.

Had a great drum corps weekend...

competed saturday, and Sunday, then baked in a parade on monday.

Got to see some great corps live. If you haven’t yet watched this season’s shows from Phantom Regiment, or The Academy… You’re missing out.

I got to see my amazing sister @Fledegeling, and spend some quality time with her Hiking around MtSac to the 7-11 to avoid the food booth queue. Also, I had the pleasure of running into and finally meeting the amazing @queenpenelope in person.

Norcal tour friday thru sunday… I’m hella excited.
