Thanks! I recently tried drumming for the first time since middle school. We were jamming at a friends house and there was a full drumset but nobody really knew how to drum, and I just gave it a shot and it went pretty good! We had a lot of fun making music, especially making death metal versions out of sad songs (Mad World by Gary Jules suddenly got a lot better!).

To summarize our conversation here: I started writing a journal, with basic entries of what I did every day. Appaled by how little I could remember from last Tuesday, I wanted to preserve the moments I usually forget. The thing that struck me was that I remembered the days I did something new much better, and that doing the same routine every day made me forget about individual days. So I try to do new things whenever I can. It is when you stray off the beaten path where you find new ideas, environments and people.

Communist. I will pray for you.

Mad World is by Tears For Fears and when it isn't sung by a whining pussy it's vastly better.
