Paper-back monster.

Wow.

Things are slowly falling back right into place. I seriously couldn't be more happy about the past week. Work and money is surprisingly very good, the friends are good, the weather is awesome (though a bit too hot).

I am in the process of diving right back into the writing of my debut graphic novel. Though a lot harder than I originally expected, it's been fun thus far. Definately looking forward to seeing how the whole thing unravels.

As always, I've been keeping myself busy with videogames haha. It's funny how I will always get super stoked over them even if I'm coming to an age where I am technically supposed to be thinking about starting a family and whatnot. Oh well, nobody likes you when you're 23.

Sappy Blink-182 quote: (x)

If any of you are wondering, this is what the track listing for the album so far;

Young & Alone.
So hollow.
Sleeping forever.
Cliff jumper.
I give myself away.
Raise your voice.
Break me down.
Haunted castles.
Keep failing.
Mikaela.
Without you.
Nowhere bound, see you around.

Who would've thought.

Oh well, see ya!

Illuminance.

Shitty old me feels like some things need to change very soon. I don't feel that much inclined to make them change myself, so I'll sit here and wait for them to manifest themselves.

I wish I could just forget about these words, notes, strumming patterns, melodies, and guitar picks. I just want to go back to college and start where I left off. A part of me keeps wanting that school/good boy lifestyle, full of these shallow people and shallow dreams.

Another part of me, which controls approximately 90% of my brain when I'm not sleeping just wants to keep playing music like a bum. No matter how hard I try to steer away from it it just lures me right back in.

To all my fellow ghosts lurking in the shadows, new music is coming your way. I promise. I have too much crap to get out of my system.

Until then,

Mannnnn.

I feel like everything's going down these days. On the upside I get to meet so many cool, new people through Modern Ghost and I am more than happy to call most of them my friends now.

On the downside, I still have to deal with the shittiest human being on earth. You know when sometimes you have a really bad - scratch that - TERRIBLE impression of someone and once you finally meet them you convince yourself they're not as bad as you thought. Well, months later I realize that I should've never even come into contact with that person in the first place.

I am dumbfounded at how some people think so highly of themselves. Shitty human being, even shittier musician, and probably the dumbest/clueless guy I have ever met - but still he thinks the whole world is watching his every move and revolves around him.

Oh well. He's out now, and for good. The band can now move forward and hopefully - finally get a hold of that light at the end of the tunnel.

Speaking of which; I'm still working days and nights on this little dream of mine. Although I might have slowed down some of my ambitions I still think that some day people will catch on. I mean, heads are slowly turning our way and it feels good to know that all this work is starting to pay off, but we still have a long road ahead, and I mean that in every way possible.

I'm thinking of writing on here more often. It clears up my mind and stops my brain from feeling completely crumbled by all this nonsense.

Thanks for reading, as always

Welcome to the year 2009.

I officially bought a laptop and couldn't be more happy about the investment. It feels good to finally being able to have my own portal to media, internet, and all the good stuff in between.

I am definately looking forward to tagging it along with me wherever I go and finally reply to all the myspace messages I've been getting on the band's profile.

Yay for technology.
Yay for Modern ghost.
Yay for me ;)

Crossing the Rubicon.

The Sounds' new album 'Crossing the Rubicon' came out yesterday. I highly recommend you to go out of your way to buy it.

I need to move to Sweden, now.

=)

Loving life à la max.

The new layout is FINALLY done and up and running. After working so hard for over a year, writing songs and putting concept ideas together, I am finally able to let my baby live a life of its own.

I have to admit that though very relaxing, this process is and has been very stressful right from the get-go.

Many member changes, one too many EXTREMELY shitty people involved with the band, countless nights spent writing, scratching, writing some more and obsessing over the most ridiculous details.

Big thank you's to everyone who's support I couldn't live without. Parents, friends, loved one, you know it wouldn't be the same without you.

That being said, welcome to Satellite City where dreams do happen.

More info on that later.

Stay young and alone,
