Got driver's license + busy

Well I've got my driver's license (hurray!). I burst into tears when he (the exam dude) said I passed. I honestly couldn't believe it. I cried because I was so nervous (I've never ever been so nervous for something in my life. I also haven't felt that relieved when I heard I passed). I just stood up, after shaking his hand and shaking the hand of my driving instructor (who rocks. She's been so nice to me, has taught me in a way which really helped me and I haven't even thanked her for everything. Stupid), and wobbled outside finding my dad and telling him I passed still crying, feeling quite awkward because of the fact I just couldn't stop crying. I didn't know how I felt; relieved, sad, etc. The only thing I knew was that I couldn't believe I passed; I thought I sucked and it went so awful. According to my driving instructor I did very well and drove without showing nervosity. If only she could look inside my head...

And now I can drive home this Friday. I'm a bit scared, it's odd I can't stop thinking about not being able to drive anymore. It's just stupid.

I've also driven the motorcycle of my dad, which was a blast. It's really heavy at first, but when you hit thirty or more it just drives really nice.

Anyway.

Because of those things occurring, I didn't work on the musical at all. Which is a shame, but alas, I couldn't get a grip on myself. This week I will try to write at least one song. Unfortunately we'll only have one meeting and the drummer can't play. It'll work out itself though. I'm positive.

Roemer, the drummer of my band Above the Attic (hence the name Above the Attic's Diary) wants to have six songs ready within ten weeks. We discovered we already have one song completely finished (Mr.Immovable), and two songs almost finished (Wake up! and Nameless). Of the remaining three songs we have a skeleton; a basic idea or a tune without vocals and or real structure. Besides those six we've got loads and loads of idea's, riffs on the guitar, lyrics, and so forth. So six songs shouldn't be a problem.

Just now I've also finished selecting photographs with Roemer, which we will use for flyers and other things.


Here's one of them. I just like the fact that everything is black because of the clothing and the lighting. And the composition is really nice.
