I am proud of myself. This week I fulfilled two dreams that I have had for a very long time. I recorded my first song (the first dream) and it was for/about a girl (the second dream). I had an assignment to introduce a person in my communications class using my favorite method of communication. My person ended up being a cute girl, and I figured that now was as good a time as any, so I wrote a song and recorded it for her. We laid down the tracks in two takes (I played the guitar and sang the vocals), did a little editing and bam it was ready. It wasn’t anything super special, but I was actually impressed at how it sounded.
I showed up to class the next day on pins and needles. I was excited and nervous to debut my song in front of a bunch of people I didn’t even know. When it was my turn, I took to the front of the room in a cold sweat. I cracked some jokes and then stuck the CD in and hit play. A minute and 10 seconds later it was over. Everyone was clapping and I felt great. I know you are all waiting for the catch. It wouldn’t be my life without a catch or a weird twist. The funniest thing about the situation … the girl the song was about wasn’t even there to hear it! She dropped the class. Hopefully if I ever write a song for a girl again, she’ll actually get to hear it.

she dropped the class - that is pretty sucky. Maybe you can approach another hot girl in the class and just convince her you really wrote it for her instead.

Yes. I am down for the T-shirt concepts.
That is definitely the funniest thing i’ve read in a long time, but also one of the most absolutely sucky.
