An Apple a Day

Hey everyone,

Just thought I'd give you all an update on how life is going for me. This last week was been shaky. Last Monday, I got a cold, what's the big deal right? Well, on Saturday night, I was experiencing intense pain in my gut, it felt like someone was stabbing me. We (my parents and I) thought I might have to go up to the hospital but I waited it out and it slowly subsided. I'm still feeling kinda crappy at the moment but it's nothing compared to what it was. Hopefully it's just a passing virus and nothing too serious. My visit with the doctor isn't until November 16th so I'll have to wait to make sure all is good. Anyways, school is getting slightly more bearable but I still don't know if it's for me. I've decided to tough it out in sciences for now and see what happens. Within the next week, I'll be reviewing a CD I just picked up, Collective Soul's second self-titled album (not sure why you'd have two haha) and so far I'm enjoying most of the songs. Also, if there's anything you want me to talk about, review or add to my blog, feel free to leave your thoughts on this post. Well, I've got a Chem lab tomorrow so I better get some sleep.

Bye for now

Smoke & Mirrors

So, I finally got to listen to Lifehouse's newest album, Smoke & Mirrors. In fact, I'm listening to the title track right now. I've listened to most of the tracks and I have to say, I'm really enjoying it. Lifehouse put a diversity of genres in this album. "Smoke & Mirrors" has a southern rock feel to it, "It is What it Is" is more pop styled than most of Lighthouse's other songs, and surprisingly I enjoy it. Also, "Nerve Damage" is a mix of hard rock and blues, sounds weird but it works really well. The other songs are more like the Lifehouse most people know. My favourite songs so far are "All In", "Nerve Damage" and "Had Enough." Overall, I'm impressed with the album. This greatly increases my respect for Lifehouse. I recommend you take a listen.

Life is Like a Box of Chocolates

A month gone by in Sciences at UNB and well... I'm not sure what to think. Biology has required a quite a bit of work, Chemistry is a pain, Physics isn't too bad and Math, well, since I already know it, it's very easy. The labs were pretty crappy at first (57% in Chem, ouch!) but are starting to get a little better. However, I starting to think that Science might not be for me. I'm just gonna tough it out for at least a semester and then I'll make my decision. As for non-school related stuff (of which there's very little haha), the All-Nighter at Crosspoint Wesleyan Church on Friday night was a great success. There were nearly 100 kids, crazy stuff! I rocked out on the drums for Dancing Generation and Rise and Sing, and sung for Hello Hurricane and No One Like You. They all went pretty well, minus John's string breaking, but what can ya do? Oh and the zombie Thriller dance was really well done. Anyways, that's how life has been in the last little while; a few ups and a few downs. Hopefully there will be more ups in the near future.

Catch ya later
