Take what you can from your dreams, make them as real as anything...

About Me

What's there to say?
My name is Eric, and I'm 17.
I'm a musician. Music makes me who I am.
I'm passionate. I'm compassionate.
I love Jesus, and He loves me. ♥
I'm homeschooled. But not anti-social.
I'm a Junior. [ Grade 11, for the others. ]
My true friends mean the world to me;
I would die for them.
My best friends and I are inseparable.
I don't drink, smoke, or do drugs.
I live life with a clear mind and memory.
Some might call me 'straightedge'. I'm just being me.
I have dreams; goals; passions.
I have hope for the future.
I have love.
"I love society for what it's capable of,
But I hate it for what it chooses to do."
My mind is always a blur.
I'm constantly thinking.
Constantly wondering.
Never really knowing...
But there are answers.
If you'd like to get to know me better,
Or just want to talk about anything at all,
Shoot me a message, and we'll chat.

Courage is not the absence of fear.

Wherever I go, there I am.

More late-night blogging from yours truly.  To be honest, I really don't know why I write blogs.  But a part of me says it's for acceptance; to feel significant.  Like maybe I want peop...

Up on this hill, in this uncanny house...

I was just listening to Anberlin, and realizing once again how much I absolutely love them.  Stephen's voice, Deon's bassss, Knate's beats... Joey and Christian's guitars....  They all flow ...

Where science ends, there life begins.

I just got home from a busy day at work.  But it was the good kind of busy.  The "Oh, this isn't so bad.  It's kind of fun" busy.  That's how I like it.It's a pretty long drive hom...

Dance the night away.

Ahhh.The prom....Saturday night was a splendid night.I'm tempted to say it was one of the best nights of my life so far.  I think that's pretty safe to assume.  It was just a grand night, fu...

Something out of nothing.

Is midnight really the best time for me to be writing?Most likely not.  But still I trudge along.  I guess my mind does weird things when it gets late.  And perhaps these weird things a...

A little something for everyone, perhaps?

Indeed.So, I've noticed that when I write blogs, I tend to go on and on about something, trying to put my thoughts together to form coherent sentences.  And then, I just kind of stop.  I nev...

"Keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest..."

I really like Linkin Park’s new album, Minutes to Midnight.  It’s actually more hit and miss for me... There are some songs that I absolutely adore, and some others that I’m not...
