DJing, working with VSTs, mixing, mastering, recording songs without words, trying out a new sequenced pattern, updating my Myspace page, living, loving, spinning, star gazing, trail blazing, being brave, refuse to be a slave, wishing & hoping, staying real & not moping, trying new things, cutting old strings, rockin' out without a doubt, and just making the best of every situation.
