When you get high, do you do what i do?
I think about myself and what i love and what i hate. I feel like those who don't smoke pot refrain from smoking because they might expand too much on what they hate. It's scary every now and then, and a large portion of drugs touch on this element of the ambiguous self identification.
So, i'll walk you through this:
I know what I am, but I also know what I want out of it. I always focus on three things-- my music self, who i am romantically attached to, and how i will continue to stay as happy as I am right now for the rest of my life (this part mainly deals with jobs and boring stuff)
In terms of music-- I have a hard time with who i am musically. The goal is to be the person that i sell. The goal is to write songs and be the image that is there in it's genuine entirety. Bob Dylan is Bob Dylan. He can pull of being who he is because he's an asshole. If people don't take shit that he says, he doesn't care. He is Bob Dylan. I want to be the modern John Denver or Cat Stevens. Anything that I can do to achieve this, I attempt. Graduating will give me sooooo much more time to work on music.
Romantically speaking-- I'm pretty happy. I just need a girl on my level. Someone who's going through what i'm going through. That way we can help each other out. I like a girl who actually gives a fuck about my music, and goes to my shows, ya know? a muse. Okay okay I guess this ties back in to music again. But that's the first rule-- any girl I date needs to know that I'm dating my music. I'm cheating on it with her.
Continuing happiness-- someone very significant told me tonight that I've always wanted to write positive songs. I didn't really realize that I told people that until she said it. She said that i've always wanted to write an Andrew W.K. song. Ok fuck. I'm talking about music again.
Well so what? I like it.
but i also like YOU and me. And your dogs. and your hair. and your glasses. and etc.
and etc.
