Career Update…update

Good-ish news. I’ve been taking a few music books with me to Cowan Mill Church ‘in case’ they asked me to play for them. They hadn’t yet, but my dad mentioned it this previous Sunday and so we hung around after worship for about 45 minutes and talked, I played a bit, and discussed both music and computers. So they wanted me to play this coming Sunday!!! I said that’s a lil’ too early, haha but that I didn’t mind filling in every now and then or playing if we came up with something to play. I also told Pastor Kaplan about LUVR Services, specifically LUVR Web Design and he’s going to bring up about getting a website to the Budget Committe this fall. So that’ll go well, hopefully.

Also, I purchased all 3 Casting Crowns albums and music folios tonight at work. So I’m listening to them now. haha. Maybe, perhaps, I can play for or with Mr. Lovern (Music Leader) seeing as he is enthralled with (and good at) singing CC’s music.

OK. I’m tired so I’m getting off here, backing up the servers and going to bed. Gotta go to VBS 2mrw.

God Bless!

Career Update

Of my four possible career fields (music, computers, business mgmt., and counseling), Music seems to now be a tad more dominant. I’ve been practicing a bit more and at first it was rough because my skill was zilch (b/c of lack of practice skills the last 2 or so years), however I’ve built back up to where I was in these last 2 weeks so that’s a big YAY. 2  years of semi-lost skill back in 2 weeks. haha. Anyway, it’s the fact that I only played music that was at my Late Beginner/Late Intermediate ranges…so I spruced up and jumped back into my books that are late intermediate/early(-mid) advanced so that helps.

Anyway, Casting Crowns is awesome so I’ve got each of their 3 CD’s and music folio books on hold at work (till one of the folios comes in on order, hopefully). That way I can add them to my Evanescence collections. haha.

Anyway, gotta go back to work tomorrow. Yay…sure ok. 🙂

God bless and have a great rest-of-the-week!

New Phone

I gotta new phone yesterday. My old one hasn’t been working too well so it was due time for a new one. I also got my mom a new phone (she’s out of the stone age and sent her first text message yesterday, too, haha.)

Anyway, it’s a Samsung a437 model.

Have a great rest-of-the-week,

GTA 4/IV

I’m SUPER psyched!! Why? Because Grand Theft Auto 4 (IV) released yesterday (Apr. 29th) and my copies -both PS3 and Xbox360 versions- were prebuy from the RockStar warehouse. I should get them tomorrow afternoon sometime.

I know games like this are frowned upon by fellow Christian brethren but I really don’t mind. I know all the better but my personal view pertaining to people (not only kids) and video games is set in stone: as long as you don’t repeat the words or go out an enact what you see in the game you’re fine.

I may go out to Walmart or Circuity City and get the Brady official strategy guide for the game since I got a $25 refund from books at work, I can spend it!

Aah. Time to get ready for lunch……….. and work. Talk to you later!

Andrew

 

UPDATE

I bought the strategy guide today but my games are delayed by a day or so…hopefully they’ll still make it sometime tomorrow.
