Any day now...
Some people may have noticed my msn name, "waiting..." That pretty much sums up the past week and a half. Before the weekend, i was waiting for Joanie to come to town, then i was waiting for my dad to come home, now i'm waiting for the album to arrive. It's funny... aren't we always waiting for something to come our way? An online purchase to come in the mail, an email response, a promotion, a job offer, answers to prayers, a sign from God that He exists, nightfall, sunrise, etc, etc... But waiting is such a passive thing... wouldn't you rather be proactive? Pursue instead of wait? I guess some things are out of our control... maybe i'm being a little impatient.
Some people have asked and some might still wonder: the album artwork posted below was put together by my brother, Tim. Amazing, isn't it? I wouldn't have posted it if i didn't like it so much.
Quick update of what's been going on...
I finally got around to applying for part-time jobs... Here are the places i've applied to: TD Canada Trust, CIBC, HMV, American Eagle, Banana Republic, Mexx. Let me know if you have any comments or past experiences with these places that one should know about, like... weird initiation rituals, or sacrifical ceremonies, or crappy hours... haha.
After many failed attempts, countless hours of organizing and re-organizing, piles and piles of dust, and years and years of accumulated junk, i can finally say: my room is clean. Honestly, i never knew my room was so big! I don't think it's ever been this clean and organized since i moved here 11 years ago. A big big hand goes to Joanie who took on the daunting task of "the shelf" and "the closet".
One thing i really appreciated when i was at Western was the accountability group i had. It was a time set aside every week to get together with brothers and share, pray, chill, and whatever. Just to be brothers to each other. Now that we've all gone our separate ways, i've found myself missing that kind of fellowship. I've come across some guys here in Ottawa who want to do the same thing, so hopefully that works out. Fellowship is so important.
Next on the agenda, planning a road trip for the band! We're looking to head up to Toronto, London, Montreal, Kingston, etc. So if anyone knows of any cool places a band like us could play at, gimme a holla! What's that you say? What kind of a band are we? Check out our website or listen to some clips of our soon to be released album!
