Played Nathan in three games of 21, beat him twice, and he won the last game because I gave him a 5 point lead. We walk inside and I grab a glass of water.
Nathan: hyungah, want a popsicle?
Joash: nah i’m good
Nathan: are you sure?
Joash: alright I’ll have one
He walks over and hands me this:


I was watching Diners, Drive-In’s, and Dives with Nathan while snacking on the grilled cheese he made us, when I remembered a fun story from this weekend.
So after leading worship at New Hope Church with the band this past Sunday, we were driving over to Fresh Fire Church to say hey to Pastor Joey and [...]


above all else

21Jul09

So christianaudio.com has the audio book of Francis Chan’s Crazy Love available for free download during the month of July, and after hearing about how it’s really impacted John’s life, I downloaded it and listened to it this past weekend. It was a couple hours long, but between all the driving I did from here [...]


a tribute

12Jul09

This is an American made Fender Highway One Jazz bass that I refinished into Shell Pink.  Before you cast judgement, it was inspired by one of my earliest influences as a bassist, Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers. An AOL-Time Warner executive gave Flea a 1961 Shell Pink Jazz bass as a gift, and [...]


Ren & Stimpy are home for the summer, and Holiday is intrigued.

*edit*
That is my sister’s hand, not mine.


sad day

10Jul09

I don’t have many sad days, but today was a sad day. I’m going to write about it to self medicate.
So I couldn’t sleep last night because I was experiencing anxiety knowing that I had a really long day today, and I had a bunch of final assignments to turn in on my last day [...]


There aren’t that many things in my life that I consider bothersome, but I absolutely hate it when I run out of boxers. I look through all my drawers, and even my luggage bags hoping that I left a clean pair in there from retreat, and then I just resort to going to my dirty [...]


So I purposefully made no plans for my July 4th so I could spend some time at home with family.
At the moment, Mom & Dad are next door at our neighbor’s son’s wedding…

Grandma’s outside watering her garden…

Joanne’s at work, Nathan’s at a friend’s barbecue, and I’m just sitting here independently watching Food Network while eating [...]


craziest dream

02Jul09

I had the craziest dream just now during my nap. I’m only recording for my personal entertainment.
The majority of the dream took place at a huge concert hall, where my band and Sanctus Real were opening up for Britney Spears.
The sound guy that was setting up had speaker stacks that went up almost 20 feet, [...]


Okay, it’s 3:30am, and I’m still not tired since I drank a cup of Cherry Coke Zero around midnight. So while I’m waiting for fatigue to kick in, I’m chatting with Mike Yi about the same old stuff that we always talk about. You know, music, gear, the culture of worship, God’s calling for our [...]
