I've always hated keeping a journal. Something about the monotony and discipline of penning your thoughts in every night wasn't sticking for me. I've realized t
I'm a UCLA student and trying to record songs, play at open mics, and ultimately get my music out to the masses and cut a CD. Don't know how I'll do it, but any suggestions would be more than kick ass. I guess my style is pop/rock/acoustic? Just take a listen and see for yourself.

Story behind the song
Eh, I was sick of writing about the same old same old.
Lyrics
Ladies and gentlemen look what the cat’s dragged in Another song about love, oh no no not this time This time I’m singing about absolutely nothing Or as I like to say in shorthand, my life. The sun on my face feels so good What’s the point of getting up and going to school Running away from the sun light that’ll be waking you up in bed To go to a class where the teacher’s bald spot is reflecting off his head. Oh no no no, And I don’t want that at all Oh I don’t want that at all But I’ve got no choice at all So I’ll sing and I’ll play untill I die Ladies and Gentlemen, please turn to page one oh nine And learn about things that won’t blow your mind So I look around me for the class skank And try to picture her with a thirty year old named frank The girl comes home to find a cluttered apartment Frank’s just sitting on the couch, drunk of his ass He doesn’t care a lick about her, and he’s only there for the ass So why, does she still come home to him Cause all she wants is a little love from men Oh no no no, And she doesn’t like it at all and it’s sad cause it’s not her fault But she’s got no choice at all Cause in shorthand that’s her life Ladies and Gentlemen, looks like I’m talking bout love again I guess that’s the way it goes, that’s who I am
