Benjamin Is Here

I am so blessed.

About Me

I just got a phone call from my friend Jody whom I met when they opened for Collective Soul and then Bon Jovi and Nickelback (during this time, yes, all five shows was it girls?? Emily, Cat and I totally fell in love with the Jody boys and totally fell in love with their music!!) He just called to tell me that they are doing a new promotion giving away their new 5 track EP. I implore you to check it out!! Click on the link below...
My friend Joanna says,
"Art isn't just a window in to somone's eyes its how the soul speaks with out a voice. Sometimes it shouts and other times it whispers but it always gets its point across."
My newest favorite and a good friend of mine,
"Did you lose yourself somewhere out there? Did you get to be a star?"
"And don't it make you sad to know that life Is more than who we are?"
"It is through music, that the universal feeling of oneness can be achieved in the twinkling of an eye."
-Sri Chinmoy

Wow, i've been enjoying Goo Goo Dolls lyrics a lot recently... "You hide inside yourself and I wonder what you're thinking. And everything you're chasing, it seems to leave you empty. And all that you knew slipped away."
I haven't heard their new album, but I loved some of their old stuff. They were the first band I went to go see all by myself, my grandma drove me and my friend Abby to Hershy Park. We spent the whole day there, and got picked up after the concert that night.
"There is no such thing as bad music if it is done with honesty and sincerity. Because if we all like the same music, how boring would that be? "
I used to teach gymnastics part time which is fun, I love being in the gym, the smell of the place reminds of me of being a little kid at John Pancotts Gymnastics Center. I love the kids, I like to bite the little tiny ones' cheeks off! Now I go to school full time.
I go to a Christian school, Eastern University... I used to think Christians were just a bunch of hypocrites but now I see that we all have standards that we could never live up to or else we would have nothing ot strive for. Anyway, thats that....
Oh so you should check out my new friend Micahs music, its very cool, we played an open mic together, well, together meaning I happen to run in to him and we played on the same stage in the same night...
