Let's see if I can speak Japanese

This blog is a mess and I don't think anyone reads it yet. I'm torn whether or not to make it personal or informative. I want to share stuff with my friends and family and record the things I don't want to forget but I want to write informative stuff too for whoever is interested so maybe I'll have to make two blogs. For now 1 will work.

I saw Shiina Ringo. It was strange. It was huge...one big event I didn't know how to attend. The music was amazing but it was almost as impersonal as watching a live dvd. It all felt like a youtube video I was paying a lot of money to watch. 16,000 people! I'm used to meeting my favorite bands after a show in front of 200-500 people. I felt so small. An ego-blood rush went to my head and I felt I deserved better than to be a nameless spectator. Maybe. Maybe not. With her opening song and one of her most haunting, Hatsukoi Shojou, the last 3 years sunk in.

I don't desire fame, but I want to create something worthy of fame. I will. I know now that I am able to.
