My creative nonfiction paper is coming a long okay. For me it kind of hard to write about. I am currently writing about my trip to Boston to audition, but I am stuck in between about writing about just my trip up( which was an adventure in its self) or about my audution and the nerves I had going up. Maybe I might write about both. A good writing processed I use to continuously keep writing this paper, I would go to my favorite local coffee shop and just sit down and just bang this paper out, but at the same time be in a comfortable play to get the work done.
My problems I have with my paper is that one its not finished, this paper is really killing me,there is just so much I want to put into it, but I can't really seem to be able to cram everything into the paper. I think I'm gonna go back from the start and write a solid outline and then do it again. I feel lie this could work and help me finish this paper.

here is the opening to my creative nonfiction essay, this is not final, and not revised to well.
There I was sitting in a limo, on my way to the train station, the back seat was hotter than hell, but that was okay. my driver “bob” looked like if he got any older he would be buried underground, the wrinkles on his face and the huge radiant roudoulgh nose, made it seem like he was even bigger alcoholic then John Bonham. Then I heard from a ghostly voice “ where ya heading,” “Boston” I barked out. “ for business or pleasure?” “Business I said” after that the whole limo ride was quiet. Not wanting to speak anymore, as I put on my headphones I thought it would be appropriate to play some “Ride” on, because my ride was far from over, it was only the beginning. This is the beginning to my creative nonfiction esay, it needs still a lot of work, but I think it can turn into something good. week 5 blog, class is going okay, steel trying to get motivated, but some how I just can't, I am still exhausted from Berklee audition, but that should be over soon. Other than that home is going okay, my family and I have now been living in our new house for about to months. Therese nothing really new about it actually. We just moved to my grandmas house because it was time to start taking care of her. But I kind of like living here, I am able to walk to Wayne, and the train station is close by. But the best part is that WAWA is a half mile from my house, which is always great. The only downside to living here is the fact that my neighbor complains about my drums a lot. Its not like its loud at all, but there is always one old crazy neighbor that complains about everything.
I finally back in the swing of things as far as school, last weekend was my Berklee audition, and I felt like I nailed it. I treated my audition more like a job interview, and compared to the other kids I felt like I handled it more maturely than others. I knew when all the students and faculty commented non my suit, I knew that was the right move to wear a suit. One thing that made me kind of mad at Berklee, was the amount of kids who thought they the BEE KNEES, that kind of was annoying to me, Berklee is not about the best musicians, its about those who have passion for music, and want to pursue it for the passion rather than the money. But hopefully I won't have to see any of those type of kids if I can get in next semester. Other than that, Boston was really fun, had a great time up there. The food was amazing, thankfully Boston is a big seafood town, an the amount of fresh was fish was great.
Class is going okay, I seem to falling behind due to preparing for Berklee, there is just a lot of pressure riding on this audition. I leave this weekend to go up and audition. It should be a fun trip. Boston is my favorite city, its a lot nicer than Philly and new York, its not as crowded, or as much as a dump ass Philly. I had a huge crisis the other day, my neighbor was getting upset about me playing the drums, and talking about how it was to loud, honestly he is just being annoying, and I cant deal with that right now, I only have a couple more days until my audition, and my anxiety is threw to roof. Hopefully everything goes well this weekend. Thankfully my I was able to get a private practice room that I can use every night, it not fun playing drums from 9pm to about 1am, but you got to do what you got to do, and to me its worth it to pursue my dreams.
So far this class seems to be pretty cool, I am not a huge fan about these blogs, bu at the same time I also think its a cool idea, I just need to be on top of them, hopefully I can stay on top of them. Other than that, all my other class seem to be alright, my American history teacher is a crazy old guy who doesn't really have a filter on his move, and says the most terrible things, but its also fumy at the same time. At home nothing much I going on, I am working on my Berklee audition, the pressure hasn't really kicked in yet, but it will soon. I am in the middle of working on many pieces I need to prepare for the audition. There are to many styles of drumming I need to learn and not enough time, hopefully I can pull everything together.
