I’m gonna take you on a tour of my room. Don’t ask me why, I just felt like it.

Star Wars posters are a must. Also Deftones, LOTR, Kill Bill and Cat Calendars.

Here we have the infamous DVD collection. Also some more posters – Sopranos, The Big Lebowski and Labyrinth. A television in your bedroom is a must.

Everyone needs a dresser. And of course this shot includes some star wars memorabillia (all of which are presents, I don’t really go out and buy that stuff, I swear), a Six Feet Under Book, pictures of me and Jackie and various other fun stuff. The posters – Halloween, the Dark Crystal, Freddy Vs. Jason, Cam De Leon artwork and some more Star Wars posters of course.

Here we have girlfriend corner. Plenty of girly stuff that all girls need to survive. And of course a big lebowski poster. I think I like posters in my room.

Here we have my work station, but first the posters surrounding it – Nirvana, Goldfinger, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Incubus, Deftones and Smashing Pumpkins. On to the “work station”…

Here is my workstation. I sometimes record rough music ideas, visit stupid websites like MySpace, make phone calls, work or play video games here. All in all it’s a fun place to be!

Finally we have my bed where I sleep, a table next to my bed, the newest addition to my household – Beaker, a mysterious blue box , candles, coasters, lighters, lights, books, remotes, candles, massage oils, tums and an alarm clock.

So that’s my room. As you can see I’m addicted to posters and I love to surround myself with them. I don’t really like plain walls. Special thanks to my girlfriend Jackie for helping me keep it clean and for those nifty bed sheets. Hope you enjoyed the tour and come again!

It smells like Autumn right now. I sit here at work with my windows open, feeling sick and weak, but the smell of Autumn makes me feel alive. This smell reminds me of when I used to have to start back up at school.

Holy shit freak out moment it’s 2005…which means it’s been 9 years since I graduated from high school…I hadn’t taken a moment since 2005 arrived to realize that and I’m glad I didn’t until now. Oh well fuck it, there’s no turning back now. My freak out moment has passed.

Tonight, as I attempted to lay down and go to sleep, as I often do when I can’t sleep, I began to think back to times in my life that were happy. I’m not saying that I’m NOT happy right now, because I’m quite happy – but anyway I think back to little moments of my life that for some reason or other I’ve retained.

There’s one thought tonight that I often think of and I don’t know why. It was back in 1991. It was a Friday night. I was around 13 years old. My dad took me to the Shore Mall in Pleasantville for some reason or other. I think he was looking to get a lawn mower. We went to Boscovs and looked around for a bit. This was back when Boscovs sold CDs and Tapes. That night I bought (or maybe my dad bought it for me…) my first ever Metallica piece of music – it was a tape single of “Nothing Else Matters” that had a live version of “Enter Sandman” on the B-Side. My friends had raved about the “Enter Sandman” song so I had to finally check it out.

It would be my first step towards Metallica and metal type music in my life. I don’t know what it was about that Friday night but it brings me peace for some reason…I don’t know why. It just left some kind of lasting impression on me for some reason and thinking back to then just makes me happy for some reason. I don’t get it. I don’t know what the hell it was that made a difference and made that night stick in my head…but it looms there once in a while. So I think back to thoughts like that sometimes, I know, I’m weird and I think about the past too much sometimes but I guess it’s just my thing.

Do you ever think back to times like this?…I don’t think I’m alone.
