Tired
I have realized that my lack of sleep will catch up with my teenage "superman" status. I'm not superman, just want to get that out there. But I can go without a lot of sleep for a while. Not completely without sleep every night but I mean the latest (earliest) I have stayed up during my vacation in Australia is 5 AM. But today at like 5-7 PM I was becoming drastically tired, worn down, and just felt like crap. I think I need some sleep (duh) but I want to enjoy the rest of my time here with my family. When I become tired people notice and suggest a coffee, but I say nooooooo. I'm so sensitive to caffeine it's ridiculous. It absolutely does the opposite for me and just creates this weary-sickness in my brain and all throughout my body. I have a constant hangover for about 30 minutes, and it just ugh I can't describe the feeling haha. But anyway me complaining my tiredness I guess won't wake me up. Do any of you guys have a bad affect from coffee cause I sure do. I also hate when I get like 5 hours sleep (my fault) and have to get up (my fault) earlier in the morning. I take a shower and that generally gives me a little boost of energy for some reason, but when I get in the car to go somewhere my eye lids feel like stones and I just feel like sleeping. At 11:30 in the morning! You know when your eyes just get so heavy and tired it's almost like you fight it to stay awake, it's so challenging. But i must say I'm very tired, maybe I should go for a coffee. :P

My Band Project
Music is my passion, i love music soo much. I currently play guitar in a starting band called "...." we don't have a name yet but we have a couple that i have thought of. We have "44 North", "Push", and "Sevenhill". My friend Jack insisted on the name Push. I love it too, but i think there is a small band called Push that i looked up. But since they're not huge i don't know the copyright system or how that works so i don't want to get into trouble so i decided just to wait a bit, any suggestions on the copyright? Anyway we play rock or as some people call it punk rock. but it's our own kind of sound so I don't really put a label to it. I need some advice on what guitar i need to buy. I know i want a fender strat with humbuckers and made out of ash, but i need confirmation on whether that that guitar is good for me. What i want is a guitar with a great mid demand. I love the mid tone and i don't want any hum! Hence the humbuckers. I was also looking for some advice on scales, i play with major and pentatonic but some advice on scales i wouldn't mind. Haha so many questions. If you want to suggest a band name that would be great to. Anyway!. I wrote this to tell you guys that we haven't started playing any songs yet but we have wrote songs on our own which is just the starting point. When i get back to America we will start practicing and getting together which I am very excited about. At the moment, Me and Jack are in the band for sure but we are looking at other people to join. We are looking at Avery and Jacob, they're great musicians and they would be a great add to our band. I have written so many songs on my own it's ridiculous, i can't remember most of them. I have like 1 and a half songs with lyrics in them but the rest don't. I can't wait to get back and start getting together and putting everything together it's going to be an awesome experience to live through so we will wait and see. If anyone has any advice or suggestions on starting bands please please please give me some comments... thanks :D

My name is Michael Schmack and i have created this blog not cause i'm bored (partially), but i chose this title to kind of give a broad title to what i am going to be blogging about. Just to give you an idea, i will blogging about my life and what kind of situations i come upon. Whether it may be school, my band, science, daily issues, politics, video games or whatever, so that i may give broad material that you may chose from. Simply to vent or relate to other people, it's a dwelling theme to where i can express my mind. So feel free to comment and such.
