Sorry about my long absence (aside from altering song picks each week), I've been either busy, or have felt unmotivated to actually write a new post.
For the most part, I've been busy in my mind as opposed to physically (although... I have started working out).
I thought I'd just give everyone a quick update on how I've been doing and what I've been up to lately; one big thing is that I've finished writing my song The Stars Mean Something To Everyone, although I'm not entirely happy with it, I think it's still a satisfactory beginning to continued songwriting.
Another big thing (at least to me) is that I've not only learned how to strum and sing at the same time, I've created my own modified version of the popular Train song Drops of Jupiter. Quite an incredible song, if I may say so myself.
Also, I believe I've increased my upper body strength; not to any serious extent, but enough to be noticeable.
As for psychologically, I've been up and down this past week. Mostly due to girl troubles I'll share in moderate detail when it either works out, or doesn't.
I also watched the movies Che: Part 1: The Argentine and Che: Part 2: The Guerrilla, which are both excellently done movies, although I wouldn't recommend them to anyone who likes run-of-the-mill action movies, because these movies are very true to there source material: the life of the legendary guerrilla revolutionary Ernesto 'Che' Guevara, and as such, show the dragging reality of the long walks and waits, as well as the intense, realistic firefights and the tough moral decisions and tremendous human cost of war, justified or not.
Well, as YouTube phenomenon sXephil would say, this is all I have to say on this Thursday, August 13th 2009. Have a great week, everyone. :)

The world is meaningless,
there is no God or gods, there are no morals, the universe is not moving inexorably towards any higher purpose.
All meaning is man-made, so make your own, and make it well.
Do not treat life as a way to pass the time until you die.
Do not try to "find yourself", you must make yourself.
Choose what you want to find meaningful and live, create, love, hate, cry, destroy, fight and die for it.
Do not let your life and your values and your actions slip easily into any mold, other that that which you create for yourself, and say with conviction, "This is who I make myself".
Do not give in to hope.
Remember that nothing you do has any significance beyond that with which you imbue it.
Whatever you do, do it for its own sake.
When the universe looks on with indifference, laugh, and shout back, "Fuck You!".
Rembember that to fight meaninglessness is futile, but fight anyway, in spite of and because of its futility.
The world may be empty of meaning, but it is a blank canvas on which to paint meanings of your own.
Live deliberately. You are free.
