1. Bust my ass to finish a demo by monday.
Give said demo to Justin Chavez, a good friend and previous drummer, who is currently employed in the ranks of Sony Records. His manager has asked him if he knows of any unsigned local artists, a category that easily pertains to me.
2. Make a better demo.
Give better demo to Devin Floyd, a good friend and previous bassist, who is currently interning at brushfire records. Or something to that effect. Could possibly get me listened to by the good folks at Barsuk records (which has been a dream of mine for the better part of a decade.)
3. Focus on school.
I'm getting all A's and B's right now. I only need 16 more credits before Western will disregard my terrible 1.9 highschool GPA entirely, leaving me only with my gold and shimmering A's and B's from community college. Not to mention what will inevitably be a crispy clean and emotionally (possibly even spiritually) uplifting entry essay, written by yours truly.
4. Figure out someway to get off this rock.
There are multiple study abroad programs through Pierce that are more than generously priced. For example, a quarter in London is somewhere around 3-4 gs, if memory serves. I may be speaking out of turn, but that's damn near incredulous. I would also like to go to East Asia and chill with some monks. Or maybe South America and say what's good to spider-monkeys, who the frick knows. Regardless, I need some quick cash or a phat student loan/grant/scholarship to get out of the US.
Needless to say, after my little brush with adventure this summer while embarking on my cross-country endeavors, somewhere along the way i was smitten. This fair maiden is calling me back to the wild like a siren song, and I will not be contented until her lips and mine can meet once more.
