A new project has begun. I am taking part in a five piece YouTube collaboration, with 4 former co-workers (Laura, Pat, Zach, Chelsea) from Cineplex Odeon in Aurora, Ontario.
You can find this project at www.youtube.com/friendsthatvlog
We already have three videos posted. That would be one from Zach, Pat and I. Guess we're still waiting on Chelsea and Laura. Except Zach pulled a big huge tool move and forgot to issue his challenge for the week OR pick a topic for the rest of us to talk about! Sheesh.
I guess that's all I have to say for now, I guess I'll attempt to update a bit more often, even though absolutely no one is following this.

Of Course This Would Happen
"They say that what doesn't kill us makes us who we are."
Song: It Had To Be You
Artist: Motion City Soundtrack
One on my numerous flaws is my hopes and imagination. I usually blind myself with the best possible outcome of a situation, which naturally leads to disappointment when the 'shit hits the fan'.
What I am to referring to in specific is that when I like someone, I usually end up building it up in the back of my mind to the point where I believe that everything will go my way.
Which is quite far from the truth.
"You're the echoes of my everything,
You're the emptiness the whole world sings at night.
You're the laziness of afternoon,
You're the reason why I burst and why I bloom.
You're the leaky sink of sentiment,
You're the failed attempts I never could forget.
You're the metaphors I can't create to comprehend this curse that I call love.."
Song: Hold Me Down

I'm Just Sayin' How I Feel, Man
I use music as a way to express myself. I find it difficult for me to correctly express myself, and therefore music is my sort of gateway. I usually like songs whose lyrics I can connect to, and I always find excerpts from music that explain how I feel or act. For example:
"It's the only way I have learned to express myself; through other people's descriptions of life."
Song: L. G. Fuad (Let's Get Fucked Up And Die)
Artist: Motion City Soundtrack
This simple line explains me better than I could. It is also for this reason that I love Motion City Soundtrack so much. I've always been able to connect any situation I may be in to lyrics in at least one of their songs. It's beautiful, and no one can understand it. But seriously.. I have the words, drum beats and synth parts memorized to three MCS CDs. As well as having seen them three times live, of course (they are incredible live, do it if you get the chance).
I think that what I am going to be doing is listen to music while I write my posts, and throw in any quotes that I feel would be appropriate (perhaps not to what I am writing about, but what I am thinking about or feeling).
It would make me happy if at least one person followed this blog because they found what I have to say intersting, it would really make any writing that I post worthwhile, knowing that it at least interests someone, and my words are not lost. Run-on sentences for the win!

This is the beginning.
**THE FOLLOWING IS A BLURB ABOUT ME**
This is the beginning of something that is hopefully good. It is that that would be nice.
My name is Gonzalo, and I live in Montreal, Quebec. I am currently attending Concordia University, studying for a BSc in Psychology. I live in an apartment with one roommate who is studying for a Masters in Biology.
I have a video blog on youtube, which you should check out if you have some time! (http://www.youtube.com/Gonzebo) In this vlog, I try to entertain you, because that is what you want (right?). Sometimes I'm funny (or so I've been told), and sometimes I just talk about whatever flies on through my head.
I usually have a lot to say which I don't feel would be adequately expressed in a video, because it is tons better to be able to sit here and think about exactly what I wanna be saying, and being able to convey my point that much more easily. Also, I think it is very hard to explain what I see or feel, because everybody's perspective on EVERYTHING is subjective. Therefore, it's something that I really can't see myself talking about because I feel it's not something that can be debated. Does any of this make sense?
Most of the posts in this blog are probably going to be about music, because I absolutely love music. I love playing music(played the flute for 8 years, as well as sing), I love hearing music, and sometimes I even love trying to write music.
