Dirty Little Secret

No, not the All-American Rejects song.

Instead, I'm going to discuss a bad secret I once kept. It is especially appropriate that I do so considering how secrets relate to the plot of The Scarlet Letter, the book I am currently reading. However, I won't be revealing the contents of the secret, so if you're looking for details, you shall find none here.

My secret was and still isn't particularly bad. Unfortunately, though, it's difficult to keep, and I occasionally have trouble restraining my true feelings. Thankfully, though, I have people to confide in that sometimes find themselves in a situation similar to mine. Regardless, I'd be better off not having to keep it, and hopefully I can rid myself of it someday. The day will come sooner or later, and when it does, I have the comfort of knowing I will be able to admit to it without holding anything back.

New Year's Resolution

My New Year's Resolution is to become a better guitarist. Maybe I don't give myself enough credit, but if I am going to be in a band, I don't want to feel like I'm letting them down by simply not being good enough. Therefore, I plan on practicing more and improving my speed and soloing. This way I won't be embarrassed when trying to perform with the band.
