Win A Rabbit 02-13-2008 12:34 AM

my friends go out for dinner 5-6 times a week.

i'm taking advantage of being at home to save my money and learn how to cook, so i can continue to save money when i move out.


yay being smart with money.

Yeah I'm getting more food conscious because of my girlfriend. She's a quasi vegetarian. I've always been keen on organic products and soy products, but she's turning me on to it even more. I'm even lessening my meat intake, because beef, ham, and shrimp farms are highly polluting.

Unlike PETA, I don't give a crap about the animals on the farm. I give a crap about all the pollution and havoc those harms wreck on the enviornment. :cool:

I'm trying to do some paintings but I remembered how much I suck at painting.

I don't know what it is about painting that makes me suck. I'm pretty good at doodling, and I draw out my pictures lightly with pencil before painting them, but my drawings on anything but paper just don't come out right.

I dunno like, the Adrian Young ones are THAT bad.

I still swear by VF STL and 2B's though.

I use them with my rock band. I love the balance and feel, the tips last longer than any other brand I've tried, and I never break them.

However, I plan on getting a new kit soon. It may or may not be beastier than my current kit. But the kicks will be hella bigger.

unless you're using shallow toms, 26"s are going to be very hard for you to fit standard sized 12-14" rack toms in there at any sort of comfortable, functional level.











just booked a weekend getaway for my gf and I here
