totally intensifies the the vivid ass apeal of it.

9/10 Erics feel like blogging.

The other one feels like going to sleep.

I have a big box of books in the basement of my moms new house. I really wish ihad that box of books. I really wish that I had a $100 Borders giftcard. I need more books in my life, to read...they calm me. Allow me to escape reality (how cliche). I really shouldn't borrow books from the library seeing as how im really bad with returning them. I mean, ihave over $100 in fines. lmao, maybe icould try to convert that into Borders giftcards.

Last night idefinitely woke up at 11:43. I was listening to my sleep playlist, and for the first time, iput one of my own songs on it. That "I Want You" track...and while listening to it, I was thinking..."hey, im kind of smooth." lmao. But no, hearing the song made me really want to write some new stuff. Last night Itried to have an 'all-rap' edition of my sleep playlist. Usually ihave to throw some r&b in there, but idecided to do all hip-hop.

"cheap with your love, iwas used to the splurges
now you're greasier than Church's..."

lol. ilove writing lines like that. stuff that...is kinda silly, but makes sense. no thoughtless hip-hop over here. igotta improve on writing choruses and hooks. that's the only thing that's holding me back. and in a really random, yet inspiring situation...my friend Adub texted me at like, 12 in the morning.

"It's people down here I let hear your stuff and...they feelin it so ur fan-base is growing..."

then...

"Man, if I had a dollar for every "myspace rapper" and 'fly dude' I saw on a daily basis, it's almost overwhelming like it's impossible to set yourself apart, BUT I think it's a swag you bring to the track that I don't hear almost EVER..."

=] motivation.


Dave Matthews Band - Dream Girl.m4a

i would dig a hole all the way to china
unless of course if i was there
then i would dig my way home
if by digging i could steal the wind from the wind
from the sails of the greedy men who rule the world

still, you are my best friend
and after a good good drunk
you and me wake up and make love
after a deep sleep where i was dreaming...
