Hello, World

My name is Jake Irvin and this is where I post the things I enjoy and write what is on my mind. I was born in the Antelope Valley, California, but am currently attending Syracuse University in upstate New York as a film student. If you want to get to know me, feel free to leave me a message! I am a friendly guy.

So after we played the show I felt pretty happy with the performance.

After I got my equipment off stage and and people started dispersing, I saw my mom and dad in the audience, so I went to go say hi. They said we did well, but of course my mom attacked the singer. She use to be a semi-professional singer, so she’s really critical on it. Then I talked to my dad and as it turns out, he missed my entire performance. He kept saying how proud of me he is, but he has no justification. He’s always missing things important to me. Rarely did he make it to my soccer or t-ball games as a kid because of work. He always promises to show up, but he’s never there.
When we got home, he went back to work.
I’m happy with the performance, but I’m really upset with my dad.

I know this might not be super important to anyone and there are people with bigger problems than this, but I just wanted to get it out.

Maybe if I make it on TV some day he can DVR it.
