Life is good.

I love Tim Horton's. And that song 'Sorry Miss Jackson' by Outkast. I heard it on the radio the other day and I'm hooked. They rap so fast and rhythm and clever lyrics... man. Whoa.
I've been working a lot and making some dough. It feels good to earn money and buy things you can enjo
y (without getting too materialistic I know.) I finally got a Canon Rebel XT with a 28mm lens, and a Taylor 312 CE acoustic! Yase. It's so nice to have a guitar to just chill and jam out on. It's so much more inspiring for writing songs too. I think I'm going to start writing tunes. Every time I start writing something I get some kind of idea in my head that it stinks so I don't bother finishing it. I think I should though. Write some and record them even for myself.
I got to photograph a wedding on Saturday. Myself and Judith (BFF) took pictures for Nicole and Curtis' wedding (forget the last name.) They came out good - sooo good. I'm really pumped about these pictures. There's a few up here and some more on www.flickr.com/jordanmattiephoto. Judith helped a lot too. She told people where to go when I didn't know what to do and told me to chill once or twice. As if I needed to chill...pfft. Afterwards we checked out a really nice beach that a friend told us about. There were rocks with huge crashing waves. Amazing.
As of now, I'm going to work for a few more weeks, edit wedding pictures, write some songs, and then head out with the band. Oh and next Wednesday I'm going to see Bob Dylan with mom and dad and maybe someone else if we figure out who to invite. Rob, Chris and I are going to be playing with Eric Angus Whyte a bit too for his CD release tour. That's going to be so fun... very refreshing to be able to play different music with different settings and style once in a while.
God is so good. I'm starting to realize how blessed I am. Sometime I can't even believe it. it just hits me like a brush of wind, or a scent, and all of a sudden I'm overwhelmed with how much God has done and is doing in my life. There's no better feeling than to know that God is growing me and teaching me new things everyday. Thank You God.
