One month in..

"I am happy to express from this darkness and draw a true picture of the condition in which I exist. I am moving towards a dark cave and a dark life in the shadow of a dark prison. This is a prison that does not know humanity, and does not know anything except the language of power, oppression and humiliation for whoever enters it. It does not differentiate between a criminal and the innocent."

As a precursor to my semester so far, I feel that quote to be fitting. Google it and you will see the horrible circumstances in which is was written. 

As it stands, this semester is of to a great start.  

HOW?

Because I am playing the game for once. I'm traveling down that path where I bow down to power, and bring myself "below my pay grade"

Regardless, rolling over does make life a little easier.  But at what cost?

Without getting too dark, (or darker) I'm working on some great music, and making a lot of progress.  
The only thing that scares me a bit is.... this time next year... I'll be in my last year of school ever.

This must be how my friends in my Master's felt... the ones that didn't go on... 

Other than a slight hiccup at the beginning of the semester (no need to go into what happened), it has been great to be back.

Now, time to shed, because there are gigs out there to be won!
