Sand will cover them

Incubus' new album comes out in 2 weeks, and I am now pretty excited for it. I liked Adolescents the first time I heard it, and yeah, it is pretty awesome, but I didn't like Promises, Promises the first time I heard it. But dang it, it is pretty darn catchy, and it is growing on me. Also, in the music realm, Mutemath's new album comes out October 4, so I am very excited for that.
The Voice ends tomorrow, and Javier is going to win. And Dia needs to learn to record because I love her live performances and then the studio version is less than spectacular. I do not understand.
I am really tired of spending money on movies, so no, I do not plan on going to Transformers 3. I don't have to see it to know it will be retarded, just like the first ones. Yeah I said it. Michael Bay is the new George Lucas, without being creative enough to make his own world. Basically, he is good at visual effects but should leave the writing to professionals. I only watched the second one in theaters because it was my friends bday or something like that, and after the movie, I told him that I had been waiting for the Bionicle Movie 2 for a long time. The third one will be the same way, except it doesn't have Megan Fox, so there is really no reason to watch it. I hope you al enjoyed that unnecessary rant that started from me seeing a lot of movies recently.
I am in another music writing mood, but it is almost midnight, and I feel unproductive when I wake up at noon. We shall see what I decide on doing.
It really bothers me when people make sports their lives. That might sound weird coming from me, since I play basketball and work out for like 3 to 4 hours a day, but let me explain. I know people whose emotions ride on how they are doing in their sport. When I tore my ACL again, I heard about this runner who got hurt and got like super depressed, I think had to go to therapy and stuff to deal with it. Like I can understand being sad about injuries, and losing big games and stuff, but after a bit of time, you should move on. Don't get me wrong, I love basketball, and I will go all out on that court, but if I have a bad day, it is not going to ruin my mood for the rest of my day. The day that my performance in basketball defines my overall mood in a day, it's time to quit. Like Luke 12:34 says, 'For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.' So I'd rather not put my hope and treasure in a game, that I have seen several times, is not going to last forever. I think that is what God wants. He wants you to have fun, and be passionate, and enjoy basketball or whatever your hobby is while it lasts, but keep your eyes on what you are working for in the end. I hope that made sense to you, I think that is enough for tonight.
Oh and the blog title comes from the song Of Dust and Nations by Thrice, so yeah you can listen to that if you want to know why I used that title
