In this low traffic web blog, I get about ten visitors a day. Out of those ten, at least one of you can comment ;)

I don’t think it’s that hard to be a kiss ass for one moment and comment one of my entries, like a good pal :D

Pweese ^_^

P.S.: This post was meant to be towards a few of my friends that I KNOW are visiting this blog. The other random blog viewers may comment if you want, but I am not forcing you… On the other hand *holds medieval sword at your neck* O_O

Disturbed… venting February 26, 2008

I am happy I got over this band along time ago..

They are remaking one of their very old songs “Perfect Insanity”, one of their better works. Before “The Sickness”.

I got to hear a preview of it, and I fear the worst.

And I am gonna say this straight up: John Moyer is just a fucking tool compared to Fuzz. Fuzz is levels better than John on band communication. John will never compare to the skill Fuzz has, and the remake of “Perfect Insanity” will prove it.

And no, I don’t think John is the only problem. David, as good of a vocalist he is, needs to get his egotistical head out of his ass. It should be the band’s band, not your band.

Dan is an alright guitarist, and Disturbed certainly does not show his skill. But hey, what can you expect from a nu-metal band?

Mike has always been good at drums, but he sucks at making beats to fit all aspects of the song. You can tell the drums were made to just fit Dan, or just to keep a constant beat of the song without complimenting any aspect of the song.

Looking back, I can’t believe a gave this band as much praise as I did.

To any die hard disturbed fan out there– actualy — to any die hard nu-metal fan out there: There is better music, with much better communication and skill. Listen to real fucking metal, not bull shit that claims to be so.

Its funny how I have a hard time telling the difference between some one instigating me, and some one trying to help me.

And that thought, my friends, changed the whole way I perceived this day.

Today, that I once thought was a bad day, has now became a good day.

And I didn’t have to go back in time. Fuck yeah :D

How could I have been so fucking blind?

Way of Life February 14, 2008

Some of you may have already read my last entry. And like I said in the Post script, I don’t disagree with anything I have said, so I have no means of taking back what I said.

In this entry I plan on clarifying and expanding what I said before, like I said I would in the p.s.s.

From my last entry- “A ‘way of life’ is something that you choose to do and proceed with it, not something you are given. Whether what you are given is ‘a gift’ or ‘a curse’ matters not with the way you choose to live your life.”

Your way of life is your own course of conduct. There is absolutely no way you can be outwardly forced to make certain choices in your life. You make the final decisions, and nothing that you have ever been given can change that. Decisions can not, as far as I know, be influenced on you. Only the choices can. When it comes down to it, YOU make the decisions that move you forward in life.

From my last entry- “Having HFA, LFA, PDD-NOS, Asperger’s Syndrome, Bipolar disorder, ADD, ADHD, and all the others is what you are going to live your fucking life WITH, not something you are going to live your life AS.

I want to clarify that I am not aiming this to one particular group of people, I am aiming it to everyone. This is for the ND’s, the ‘curbies’, the ‘mercury malitia’, the parents of autistics, the autistics themselves, and even the people that have nothing to do with autism and the like. Everyone needs this friendly reminder that they have their own way of life, no matter how you look at it.

I will now allow you guys to give your own opinions on this. I am not sure if I have opened this entry enough for propper discussion, but I would still like some different sides of the story, or different opinions, or some sort of comment from this.

A “way of life” is something that you choose to do and proceed with it, not something you are given. Whether what you are given is ‘a gift’ or ‘a curse’ matters not with the way you choose to live your life.

Having HFA, LFA, PDD-NOS, Asperger’s Syndrome, Bipolar disorder, ADD, ADHD, and all the others is what you are going to live your fucking life WITH, not something you are going to live your life AS.

The aspie way of life should not be celebrated because it doesn’t exist. There are no guidelines or definite rules that say that every aspie has the same way of doing shit.

Fuck.

I feel like rioting.

-Andrew Manning

P.S.: Sorry, I kinda had to vent. I want to clarify though, that I don’t disagree with anything I said. I also want to add, that even though you shouldn’t celebrate an aspie way of life you can still “celebrate” aspects of it. I won’t exactly be joining you on that though, I have better stuff to do.

P.S.S.: I might post another entry later to expand on what was said here.

Big Words Scare Me February 11, 2008

Gah! o_____o

I can’t read a word with over 6-8 characters without getting confused or having to read it over again. I hate it when I look at words and they look like a mess of letters. Sometimes its so bad that I have to read word for word, and not understand what the hell the sentence was talking about. Or sometimes I read a big word, and mistake it for another word. Dyslexia? I am not sure, but I am sure as hell that translation does not equal tarnisilation! and according to my spell check, tarnisilation isn’t even a real word ;_;.

Sad

I have to get to bed…
Night!

Cool band: Melovine February 5, 2008

I’ve been listening to “Melovine” allot lately, more than I ever have since I have watched them grow since the end of 2006. I have been especially enjoying their songs “Bullets Over Stars” and “Blown Away”. And I have got to say, I am digging these guys. I don’t usually listen to bands like this one, but I am still able to enjoy them. They definitely know how to do their job: Rock out :D . Congrats guys, you have just made a regular every day listener of yours into a fan. You are lucky, very lucky ^_^.
You people need to listen to these guys, they rock ;)
Here is an older video of theirs with the older version of Blown Away (I think it’s the 2006 version). They have a new version of this song now, you can check it out on their myspace page (myspace.com/melovine).

A New Fricken Day February 1, 2008

A lot of has happened since I have last blogged. Allot. So much that I have decided to do something about my life, because right now I am dissatisfied with where I have taken it so far. It is time for a change, a big change. Alrighty then, tomorrow is a new day. And I expect it to be a bright new day to start with. I feel the need to start getting my shit together, because I expect to slowly rot like an old vegetable if I don’t. So in that case, I declare myself clean as soon as tomorrow starts.

 

A few beginning notes for myself:

  • Pain is pain, that’s all it is. Pain will not, and con not, stop you. Only giving in can. The pain you once had is none existence as of now.
  • Breath in every single high point of your days, and solve your low points of the day.
  • Using a “mask” is weak if there is no good reason. In fact, there is no good reason to wear a mask and hide who you really are.
  • Dealing with problems does not mean ignoring them, or running away from them. Do your best to solve them as quickly as they come, so you will no longer have to be hindered by them.
  • DO NOT stop working for your dreams. If you do, you may never even come close to them, and you may never have another shot at them.
  • Who cares what other people think your limits are. You know more than they do about yourself. Only you know what your real limits are, and you are the only one who can learn how to expand them.
  • Listen to (and question) those who know, ignore those who don’t. There will be people with good advice for you, and there will be people with bad advice. If some one tries to give you advice, and they obviously know nothing about you, they are a waste of your time. If you receive advice from some one you know, keep it close to you. However, still question it. Even good advice can be bad advice
  • You will always make mistakes. And you can usually learn from them. If you get fooled, take note on how it happened. That way you know the signs next time.

 

Last but not least:

·You are strong, though you have weaknesses

·But you can limit them

· You can always learn the right thing to do in any situation

·The best inspiration comes from within you. It is you who makes you all you can be.
