musical obsession

I get obsessed so easily with certain songs. But the obsessions only last for about 2 or 3 days tops. Christmas eve, Christmas day, and the day after, I was all about White Christmas. I was singing it, playing it, making youtube videos of me singing and playing it. Then once Christmas was gone I got over it.
Saturday was Bixler's Birthday Surprise and it was very fun and exciting. Especially the parts where we had to sneak around Harlem and try to figure out a way to get into his house without him knowing [and without scaring his grandparents]. It was filled with poorly planned surprises and eating cake out of a box with spoons at TenRens

While on the train to Bixler's I was listening to my iPod and I heard the song Heal Over by KT Tunstall. It is my official new musical obsession. I wrote a note in my phone as a reminder to look up the chords for it and I've been listening to and playing it ever since. The hard part is the singing. I definitely want to do a cover and make a video but I have to get the singing down first. I don't think I'll post it here though, I'll probably just keep it on my youtube. Something about seeing myself in a video, every time I come on my blog just makes me a bit uneasy. I want to work on not being so shy about singing and playing in front of people and I think putting up my videos is a good way to start. Especially since I don't have to watch people watch me.

Oh yea, Christmas...I kinda forgot. It was good. Nothing special, no real traditions in my house. We open presents Christmas morning and we eat turkey for dinner. I wish we had amazing awesome traditions like everyone else. When I get older and have my family we're definitely gonna have traditions. New Years is coming up next. Then all the holidays will be over. Its not that I don't like holidays. I just get bored of the same things over and over. [Edit: Ok I realize that this paragraph is a bit of a contradiction but in my head it makes sense. I guess I feel like the way my holidays are spent isn't very amazing and awesome.]

I've been spending a lot of time playing guitar...there are two in my house. Both belong to my younger brother and both have a broken high E string. Its a little bit annoying but it should suffice until I get to play with Denise's. I really want to buy a new guitar but I think I'd sell my current acoustic first. I want to get an acoustic-electric Martin. Its like, my dream...
