OMFG my brother kick so much "#%()$/#=%!!!!

[Junior]

the other day we were talking about EBMM (he's a huge fan, too) , and I was like: "You don't understand. I'd have to save for at least 20 years to get a Y2D or regular Morse" ....and he was like: "What date is it today?" me: "28th January" him: "You'll have a Ernie Ball MusicMan Steve Morse by 28th November"

I was like:

He was like:

I was like:

He was like:

So I guess I'm like:

 

[Junior]

No, I'm like:

 

[NorM]

"What date is it today?" me: "28th January" him: "You'll have a Ernie Ball MusicMan Steve Morse by 28th November"

I did the math on this and it seems about right.
sorry this was meant as a dig but it is OK.
It is just a testament to EB (grand) idea that quility comes first

 

[Junior]

TF? I don't get it

 

[Larry]

thats only like what 10 months or so not too bad right

 

[Junior]

Dude, do you realise what this means to me?! ...a new guitar, a EBMM, a SM EBMM!!!!!!! This is a long time dream come true! And he didn't say 28th november, 2006, he said UNTIL 28th November "

 

[Beth]

Hey Junior,

I think we're confused. Is 28 November your birthday?

-Beth

 

[Junior]

No it's not.

It was more of a symbolical thing - from 28th January 'till 28th november is exactly 10 months. And 10 is a number which is frequently used... sigh... so is 1

Anyway, he just wanted to tell me that I will have a Steve Morse EBMM in the next 10 months.

My brother has been doing good bussines lately, and he's the most generous person I've ever seen.

We were having a discussion about SUB1 and SM. I said that it would take only a few years for me to save to get a SUB1, and at least 20 years for me to get a SM ...and he just wanted to tell me that he will help... a lot

 

[Beth]

Wow, that is SO nice of your brother! What a generous person!!!

 

[brentrocks]

patients is a virtue

 

[Junior]

Wow, that is SO nice of your brother! What a generous person!!!

Yes it is... I just can't believe. He's the best brother in the entire world.

 

[Junior]

patients is a virtue

so is patience

I was all like: If you buy it to me, I will take it back and ask for a refund, or kill you if they don't give it

I really don't know what will I feel like when (if) I really get it. I will probably cry a river or something, 'cause ripping off my brother for more than 2000$ would be really sad. I wouldn't know what to do or say... Our family finances have never been really good, you know... My father had a good bussines goin' but it all went down, and now my parents are divorced, my mom works all day long really hard (with phisically and mentaly challenged childern) for a lousy paycheck, I don't work (I'm still 14, it'd be illegal), my brother is on college (has to pay it), but fortunately he gets some good money for the web pages and programs he does, but that's every few months. All in all, finances have been a problem for a long time here, (in the entire country really), and getting a 2000$ guitar for me would be something like winning a brand new Ferrari for most normal working people in the US.

Sorry if that offends you or something, but that's really how I would / will feel.

And the next thing is that I think I don't deserve it. I've been playing for only 3 years, (ny end of November it'll be almost 4) and I don't know if it would be a waste of money.

Don't get me wrong, I plan on continuing my music education and playing music untill I die. I even might end up as a music school teacher (for guitar) ...that'd be something that I'd really like doing.

I don't know...

Junior follow your dreams, family always comes first and remember where you came from man you everything will work out.

If your brother gets you a guitar enjoy it and show him that you'll use it to the best of your ability.

Good luck, Glenn |B)

 

[Junior]

Thank you. You're right.

 

[koogie2k]

That is really cool of your brother to do that for you.

Now, once you get that, you need to write a nice tune for him. Then you need to write one for your Mom who is working hard for you.

That is indeed a really nice gift and I hope all works out for you and your family.

 

[Junior]

Indeed.



..the only thing that my mom makes me do is stay good in school, so that's what I'm gonna do.

 

[koogie2k]

Sounds like your Mom knows what she is talking about......

 

[Junior]

Yes, she does. And if I want to keep playing guitar, I have to do really well in school. Otherwise, not only am I not going to get a EBMM, I'm going to lose my current guitars

 

[Jonny Dubai]

Good luck wee man. Keep striving.

All the best with your dreams,

Jonny.
