So what is UP?? I've been out of the picture for quite some time, mad busy now. Let me fill those of you who know me / are curious about what's up 
WARNING: ONLY GOOD NEWS COMING UP AHEAD!
So, life has been quite wonderful since September. I broke up with my ex, who by the way, was an absolute terror to my life, so I'm quite happy now! Long story short, she cheated on me multiple times, and I was blind as fuck and just didn't notice. I discovered it after a while, and broke up with her. So, I ended up moving out, she had to move as well, which I DO Feel bad about, but still, that's life I guess. I moved back in with my mom in Lachine (Next town over), and now life is sweet. I pay rent to her, so we live roomate / roomate, 'cept my roomate is my mom and she's awesome, so life is sweet.
I quit WINNERS, I hate that place, and now I work at the Boys and Girls Club of Lachine, which is a Teen hangout center. It's pretty radical, I get to play sports, game with the kids, I learned how to Play MAGIC: The Gathering, so now the kids and I play that together, haha. It's an awesome job. (Also pays more, and is so close to my house, I can walk there.) I work with a good friend of mine, and because of the kind of place it is, Visitors are allowed, so My friends come and hang out too. It's actually real awesome. I run the music program, so I get to help kids produce beats, jam with them, song-writing, etc. It's absolutely awesome.
My Solo music project is going well. I got a show December 16th with some locals, and I got 30 tickets to sell, which I'm hoping wont be THAT Hard. Let's see what I Can do! I've got some new material that I desperately need to record, but I just kind of lack the time to do it. Aside from solo, my buddy Jer and I have started a band, (I don't know if he's on GBAtemp or not, but I think he has an account. . ) and I'm doing drums for that one, it's a hardcore band we labeled "The Giygas Effect" (lolgames) and we wrote a song called "Mother", the lyrics loosely based off the Giygas battle in Earthbound (oooobviously, we're nerds haha.) Along with that, I've joined my buddies metalcore band as a bassist, since they needed one, to which the band is tentatively titled "The End Is Here". We've got a couple of songs down, and we're sounding really tight, so I'm pretty psyched over that as well.
The only issue with that is that I work Mon-Fri from 2pm to 9pm, and one band practice is Saturday; the other is a Sunday, so I have ZERO free time almost, haha. Anyway. . . continuing, I finally got my lip pierced (Been wanting to since I was 13) and it didn't hurt at all. Aftercare is a bitch, though, haha. I went with my sister, a buddy of mine, and my new special lady friend, which is my next paragraph. . .
I met this radical girl completely out of the blue, her name is Gill. (pronounced like Jill.) She's pretty fucking awesome. We decided to hang out one day (Same day Sonic Generations came out, thus making it the best day EVER), and we ended up driving around from 9pm 'till like. . . 4am. Just talking. And hanging out. Listening to music, etc. It was amazing. Best part is; when she dropped me off, I gave her a big hug , and when I went to move away from the hug afterwards, she kissed me, and I was like. Oh so psyched, 'cause this girl is both awesome + gorgeous, so It really put me in a good mood. We ended up spending a lot of time together since then, I recently asked her to be my girlfriend, and she then tells me this is the first relationship she's actually been in, as opposed to just "seeing guys", and now she's really happy too. She says that I make her feel really special, and no guy has done that. I'm not trying too hard or anything, I just don't understand how guys can't treat women with respect. (Opening doors for them, telling them they're pretty, wanting to see / talk to them often, etc.) I bought her flowers and she says a guy's never done that for her before. I find that crazy, 'cause it's so cute + fun to do.
Anyway, I'm rambling, I'm sorry if this blog is boring, but basically, life is SWEET right now and I'm bursting with happiness. <333
Peace out, GBATemp! Comment, etc, and I hope all of you are feeling as great as I am lately!!!
