Around The World

Okay, I'm going to be completely honest.

I was a little annoyed that I kept trying to hang out with everyone [Alma, Alex, Alexa & Dallas] but didn't. I got over the whole waiting outside thing cause that was probably my fault for telling Alma to just call me when they got there.

The dinner lasted a bit, but I didn't run off. Mainly, I felt bad for last time, and plus I was driving my mom and her friend with her car. I had texted Alex probably 25 minutes prior to me getting home asking what they were doing. They were still at Dallas' so I decided to take my mom's car to go over there cause I'm really pushing on gas.

My mom was concerned but I lied to her that I had money, when I really didn't. And at the first of every month, they take 25 dollars from my checking account to my savings account for the college savings thing... and I don't even think I have 25. So great. I'm going to overdraft. I can't get the money from Tina until probably Thursday because today is her fucking birthday. Fucking fuck fuck.

Anyways. When I was just leaving, but I didn't turn on the car yet, I called Alex. He tells me they're on their way to the airport to pick up Niki. So at that point, I gave up in trying to hang out with them so I went back inside. My mom was confused as to why I wasn't leaving but I didn't say anything. Tried to burn a CD but my computer froze up and wouldn't stop being a piece of shit to me. And I just forced myself to sleep.

I restarted my computer and it was still frozen. Even after the restart. What the fuckkkkkkkkkkk. I hate you computer. Fucking stressing me out and shit. I just want to print shit and fucking make CDs but no, you can't even do that for me.

And I just saw a text message from Dallas asking where I was last night. Then I saw that Alexa posted a comment to me saying that she was waiting to see my car pull up last night. Now I feel really bad. Really bad. I'm a piece of shit.

Psycho

Funny how I came how and was about to blog, but Alex called me.

I seriously have 15 dollars in my bank account right now. Tina and I keep conflicting our schedules, even though she isn't working or going to school. I really need money. Bad. She has $240 so that should be good for a while, especially since I'll start working soon. I wonder if you get paid for going to orientation.

I put in 4 dollars for gas today and i felt super poor. Yet I spent like over 6 on chicken alfredo at the MSU. Bryan wouldn't stop talking about it so we got it and we got super full. I ate way too much and I ended up passing out in history of rock.

After school I went straight to Dallas'. Alma said they were on Charleston so I figured they would just take an extra 20 minutes or so longer than I would so I drove slow. I waited at Dallas' for probably... 45 minutes. It was good alone time though to just sit and actually write in my little journal thing. I was watching some of his neighbors ride their bikes and scooters around. The neighbor with the big truck seemed concerned that I was parked where I was. lolol.

Eventually I left and went home and yeah now here. Waiting for Angie and David so we can go have another family dinner for her birthday + my mom's friend, Judy. Too bad I'm still full...... I really want sushi but I'm just not hungry at all.

I just realized that my shirt doesn't even say Daft Punk on it. It says A.L.I.V.E. for their tour name but no one would know that. Whatever. Today was the first time I ever wore anything pink since 6th grade. Oh god. I don't know if I'll ever wear this shirt again forgetting that it just says A.L.I.V.E. on it and that's kind of weird to sport something that just says that. Though, someone from my Japanese class noticed it was from Vegoose and we briefly talked about it. He went on the second day so he missed Daft Punk.

I just realized that my Japanese class is the only one that I actually know the people and get along with every single person there. Pretty much because the teacher has us communicate with each other in Japanese every 5 minutes or so, but not when we're out of class waiting around or we see each other on campus, we do greet each other. It's nice.

There's this guy in there named Oh-san [I don't know his first name], and when he speaks, it sounds so fluent. I thought he was Korean cause I heard this other guy speak to him in it. Maybe he is. But he's amazing. And he isn't bad looking. Then I found out he's 27 today. Why am I the youngest person in there, seriously.

Suliman

It's weird just listening to Infected Mushroom songs. They're really good for like race car game music or maybe for working out. Possibly driving music. It really is such a big difference seeing them live.

I just got back from Alexa's eating all her food, watching Alma burn Alexa and Alex's ear wax, and watching Heroes. Too bad I was more than half lost during the episode. I have to catch up on the last episode of Heroes and the last 2 episodes of The Office. Gah.

I should watch Reign Over Me as well. I forgot I signed up for Netflix. I didn't understand how it worked and I was really surprised when the movie came so fast. It's crazy.

The "debate" in psychology was bullshit. I thought we were debating each other but instead, it was more like a presentation. And the teacher would butt in with her opinion constantly interrupting us. We screwed up ours and she hated us for not having our shit together. I couldn't even read the paper since I couldn't find my glasses.

I was pretty happy that Dallas texted me about playing guitar hero. I know Alma got the 3rd one and I'm seriously so excited to see what's on it. Also the fact that I even got a text. I always get excited whenever someone text or calls me to see what I'm doing. Cause seriously, I'm always the one doing it. And... Yeah. I pretty much have no friends now that I think about it. Or not no friends, but I know most are working or they're not usually people I'd go hang out with as a first person that comes to mind type thing. Although, I really am glad I have a broad range of friends that I can check up on every now and then and catch up with. If I didn't start hanging out with everyone [Alma, Dallas, Alexa and Alex] I probably would be at home every day. Haha. I guess I should start doing that actually but it really is nice knowing you're being thought about. Or just being considered in activities, especially with a different schedule or whatnot.

Oh, and obviously I started including names now cause apparently whoever reads this isn't going to enjoy knowing about my activities with other people, though about them. And Alex showed me that he checks for his name prior to even reading, just to see if he's mentioned in the paragraph. Maybe he was just joking, but I believe it, especially if a post is super long. Seriously, who the hell wants to read all this? It's so long.

Oh and I hope my English professor fixes my attendance schedule cause he totally fucked it up. Regarding to the absence and the super late marks when they were completely wrong. But I guess I have an 88 as of now without all the other stuff he graded. So yay, I'm passing.

AND. I never mentioned this, but I really wished Dallas, Alex, Alexa and Niki a safe trip. I know I said it outloud as I was leaving Dallas' to Niki but yeah. Airplanes scare me.

I sent Alex a text while they should be on their way to Cali, and Alexa texted me back. I texted Dallas to have a safe trip back home but I think he was already home. haha.

Also. I already brought it up to Alex and Alma cause Alma was asking me about if Wayne ever said something about if it was my time of the month if I was ever bitchy to him. That if it was bad that Wayne and I just hung out 3 or so times a week. I really thought we saw each other too much. Not that I was annoyed of him or anything. Just the fact that I didn't want to get like Joannah and Jesse where they'd see each other 24/7 and bicker nonstop. Of course I wanted to see/hang out with Wayne as much as I could, but I was really happy with how we were doing and it was enjoyable nonetheless. Even though we saw each other pretty much everyday at school, for like 5 minutes, it was nice. Like when you finally hang out, it's the longing and time you've been waiting for and you try to make it last or count every minute you're with them. Instead of spending time with them everyday, you might get sick of them. Well, that's what I think. And I think it went pretty well for the most part. Never had anything to fight or stress about. It was always comforting.

Oh, and I decided when I came home, I'd put up my mom's shoe rack thing. She wasn't home to my surprise but as I was putting it together she did come home. She seemed surprised that I was home before her, and actually doing something nice.

I say 'oh' a lot to start out my sentences/paragraphs. Oh well. So anyways, I finally wrote Tiffany and Ron postcards that I made. FINALLY. On Friday. I mailed them out on Saturday so they should be getting them tomorrow hopefully.

Knights Of Cydonia

Okay. Continuing on.

Well, about the dinner at Tofu Hut. I don't think it mattered if I was there or not. There's something about eating dinner with my family that I truly hate. It's either I stay quiet and just eat and listen or I try to talk about something cause I really want to but then I get interrupted. My dad and grandma ALWAYS does it. I'm trying to tell my sister about the Vegoose tickets or something I heard and I get interrupted every fucking time. Do they not hear me talking? Seriously. It's so annoying. I was actually kind of glad to leave cause when I'd think it would be a good time to talk, well it wasn't. Sorry Angie.

After Martian Child we [Dallas, Alex, Alexa & Alma] all went to Swish. Alexa and I didn't eat but the others did. It seems like they got a stomach ache afterwards though. I'm not sure if that's from eating too fast or something was wrong with the food. Weird. Oh, and we were watching this sports competition thing on the Japanese TV. It was awesome just watching. I wish shit wouldn't go so fast cause I was seriously trying to read the names.

After that, I dropped off Alma and went to Dallas'. Then we went to Alexa's. I sat on the couch with Dallas and Alex using me as a pillow thing while watching some guy digging salt. I'm not really sure what was going on cause I was falling asleep. Next thing I know I'm passed out and I wake up cause I guess my mom was calling me. I'm telling her I passed out at my friends house and she starts screaming at me. She's never done that before and it was really awkward how concerned she was. So I had to leave the room cause it got really loud. She wanted to talk to one of my friends to tell them to take me home and all this bullshit. Why I didn't have my car. That I probably have a boyfriend and that's why I stay out late every night. All these things spewing out of her mouth. It was crazy. She's never acted like before and I don't know what made her think that. But I guess I haven't really been home and I don't really talk to her. But it just got really bad and I refused to go home cause she was being such a bitch. I had to calm down so I went outside to just sit and get some fresh air.

Thanks Alexa for coming out and checking up on me. Sorry Alex for snapping at you when I was laying on the floor. Sorry Alexa and Dallas for being a downer.

My back really hurt after being on the 'dog bed' so I tried to straighten out by laying on the floor. I remember passing out on the couch with Alexa for several hours and I woke up randomly and saw Alex and Dallas already staring at me. It was 11:30am. About a few minutes after my mom called me. I just let it go to voicemail and we eventually left.

I got home and after changing, we eventually started talking. It was just bullshit. She thinks I drink every night as well, cause you know, school nights and that's why I'm so tired. I don't care anymore. She doesn't trust me anymore because I don't go home and I go to college and have a car. I'm over it. I'm still mad at her but she acts like nothing has happened and is kissing ass to me now.

I think I spent the rest of the day [October 26] pretty much cleaning. I went to Cathay House for Kevin's birthday dinner. I thought I was late but they just walked right in right before me. Familiar faces. Andrea, Freddy, Sirena, Tyler, Danny and this one guy I totally forgot his name but I rode rides with him at the Stratosphere before. Eventually Chung and Erica came and others I didn't know. Kevin's family was there as well and it was pretty nostalgic when I'd have dinner with Ron's family or something. Especially when his relatives would come visit.

It was cool at first cause I was sitting between Chung and Danny and talked to them. But after we changed our tables, no one around me would talk to me so it was awkward. Haha. And I guess I was the only one who brought a camera so Kevin borrowed it to take pictures with his family and such.

After the 2-3 hour dinner, I went to Alex's. I couldn't get ahold of Arabela and I really wanted to see her cause I haven't in such a long time and I really miss her. Plus she's going to start full time, graveyard, and I'm going to start working as well.

Alma and Alexa eventually left and I guess Dallas, Alex and I just passed out. I didn't mean for that but damnit. We didn't wake up until like 6am. They thought I was naked, but I wasn't. : I was wearing a shirt, damnit.

Dallas left first then eventually I left and wished Alex's mom a happy birthday.

I went to Target first to find my mom a shoerack but I couldn't find one, so I went to the Target up on the 215. Found it and went back to Wal-Mart to get some stuff. Went and waited for Q Mode to open cause I needed to find a skirt for my costume. Nothing. Then I went to Ross and didn't find anything but a shirt. Jessica was already at my place when I got there, so I just gathered random clothes and went to her house. I ended up borrowing all her clothes and we eventually went to Vegoose. We had already missed Lupe Fiasco, so I was a little sad but it's okay. Jessica decided last minute to change into her costume in the car. They didn't even check Jessica's purse. They just gave it a bit of a squeeze and we were in. I don't know why on the ticket they were all pushing no cameras/recording devices/etc.

We get inside and already someone hits on us. Funny thing was, this lady walks up to us and hands Jessica these 3 things and says have a fun night. We were confused, looked at what she gave us... and it was Trojan condoms. The guy ran off. Hahahha. Another guy came to us. Then we find out Atmosphere is just about to play so we go over to that stage. They were quite awesome. I enjoyed it very much. Then we go walk to Public Enemy cause I really wanted just see if Flava Flav would come out. We keep on waiting and he starts talking on a mic telling us to scream Flava Flav then says, 2 more minutes. And at the same time, we hear Cypress Hill already performing so we were like wtf. We keep waiting and they finally start. We ended up leaving after a couple of songs but I didn't even see Flav.

Cypress Hill was just awesome as well. Oh man. Everyone, and I mean everyone, was smoking weed. That's all you could smell and nothing else. I think I got major contact high.

Everyone at Vegoose were dressed up as hippies, or maybe they are hippies. Tie-dyed shirts, long brown skirts, dreaded hair and a dub in their hands.

I even saw some chick dresed up as a marijuana leaf and holding a sign saying Legalize. A lot of people were dressed up so it was just fun pointing out random costumes. Like I found Waldo, and when I said that, apparently Jessica saw one behind me as well.

We walked over to see The Shins for the rest of their set. It was really good and they even dressed up as... I'm not sure actually but it was fun. I really didn't expect them to get as much feedback as they did cause all the other bands were just rap, or at least the ones we watched. This guy tapped me once to get a look at the stage listings and then he tapped me again to see it after The Shins were done. He was super fucking tall. I thought maybe he'd want to hang out with us since we were watching all the same sets and then he eventually just runs off. We kind of tried to follow him but then he stops out of nowhere and turns around probably looking for someone. uhh haha.

We go walk over to Queens Of The Stone Age and then Jessica mentions she thinks she just saw Crista. I was like wtf where? I turn and I see her, Shantia and Dustin. I go walk up to her, poke her and we hug. First time I've seen Crista since the Washington trip. It was so good seeing her. I talked to her for a bit and Shantia and Dustin just left her. So we talked some more, Queens opened up with No One Knows and after Crista finds Shantia, Jessica and I go to the bathroom. Which was totally disgusting. Someone was walking around handing all the women toilet paper. haha.

After we go back to Queens and sit down finally. I text Crista asking if she was going to just stay for Daft Punk and Jessica points out she's right in front of us sitting as well. I text her back telling her I'm in front of her but she just keeps texting and eventually saw us. Jessica and I are just listening to the music and whatnot and out of nowhere Crista comes up and sits next to me. We talk about what we saw at the show and etc. I wasn't really digging Queens Of The Stone Age. They played the only songs I knew in the beginning and everything was just meh.

Crista eventually left. Jessica and I go walk over to Iggy & The Stooges to check them out for a few minutes. Interesting. Haha. Then we walked back over to Daft Punk to wait for an hour in a half with the crowd. I see Crista to the left of us. I don't know why we kept running into her. Then I look to my right, and it's the guy we talked to at The Shins. We kind of glanced at each other and smiled and that was about it. Jessica and I sat down for probably 30 minutes next to other people but people were being bitches and stepping all over us. Eventually we got up and stood for another 30 minutes or so waiting for Daft Punk. We were at a decent distance considering the thousands of people that would be done with the other sets and running over to Daft Punk.

Let me just say, Daft Punk was probably one of the performances that I'm really glad I'm just alive for. One of those once in a lifetime events you just have to go to just for the music. Plus, I've always wanted to go to a rave and that's what it felt like. Everyone was jumping, singing and just enjoying the music. It was amazing. Yeah, Daft Punk seriously just sat there and DJed the entire time, but what else can you expect from them? The lights and music worked perfectly together. I just loved it. I tried to get pictures and got some footage. Oh man.

When they were done, Jessica and I thought we would be smart and run to the car. Except, we couldn't find the car. Haha. The traffic was not all that bad. Tried to get In N' Out, except we took the wrong turn and ended up on the 515. Picked up Jack In The Box on the way to my place, watched an episode of The Office and watched the footage I got from Vegoose. We were both exhausted so Jessica went home and I passed out.

[October 28]

I got up at a decent time, but I had to do a lot of random stuff. Like trying to upload all the pictures/videos and burn my mom several CDs. My computer was just taking a shit on me and I couldn't work with it at all. Plus, my battery wasn't charged so it was aggravating in waiting for it to charge and I go try to upload pictures as fast as I can. I wanted to kill myself.

I ended up leaving super late and when I got to Jessica's, I uploaded everything on her computer. We EVENTUALLY left and go. I felt a bit too dressed up. Blah. I wanted an excuse to wear my boots so I could be taller and I got mixed feedback. I felt gross. lol.

I get there and watch the rest of Infected Mushroom's set. Wow, that was pretty good as well. Completely trance and electronica but it was a band. Guitar and drums. And then I realize who was in front of us. The same guy I was talking about the day before. At The Shins and Daft Punk. What the hell hahahaha. I didn't talk to him though. He probably knew it was us but he kept dancing.

I think Infected Mushroom is better live than when you just listen to their music.

We leave right when they did their encore and go wait for Muse. It was disgustingly packed and I couldn't see over anyone's heads. They come out eventually and opened up with Knights Of Cydonia. Oh my god amazing. Bubbles and huge balloons and popped glitter and confetti. It was just a huge performance and even though I could barely see anything, it was amazing. I couldn't get pictures for shit but I got SOME footage.

We leave and walk around to all the booths. We got tickets to some local band competition going on from 107.9's booth and I get a Daft Punk shirt.

We watch someone get married with all these celebrity look-a-likes hosting it.

This guy dressed up as a girl with this plastic body with hands already touching the boobs on it, comes up to us. And says "Hey ladies, want to make some bad choices tonight?" lawl.

We go over to Rage Against The Machine and sit and wait and watch all the people running to it. They finally start playing and it was just crazy how the crowd got so huge and how everyone got into it even though they were so far away. I wonder how Daft Punk looked. We're not really a Rage fan at all so we eventually leave so we can just beat the traffic and change at home to go to The Shins night performance at The Joint.

At Hard Rock, I lost my ID on the way to pick up my tickets but when we walked back, someone was waiting for me and handed it to me. Thanks so much.

Everyone there was dressed up in the sluttiest costumes, including guys, to go into Body English.

The Shins was just as amazing as the night before. I got a video and really good pictures. People kept poking me telling me how good the pictures came out or how I almost had a good shot. It was funny.

That was it.

And now I gotta find a quick article for my debate in Psychology which is in 50 minutes. Oh fuck.

Take A Bow

Okay. Lots of updating.

I had to go to the Rave office to fill out all my paperwork finally since the day before I forgot my social security card. It took forever.

Oh, I forgot to mention Dave was asking for my last name and he was like wtf, your name is Fan? You know what would be ironic? If your first name was Daft Punk. I'm not sure if I was supposed to laugh, so I kind of forced one out. I knew I was on speaker phone cause I could hear myself, and I know no one laughed. That was the first time I ever heard him say something stupid. Ha.

Okay. Moving on.

Earlier that day, I was listening in on the hours to call 107.9 for tickets. I ended up at Dallas' and finally watched one of the RedBox DVD's I had out. So we, [Alex, Alma, Dallas & Chris] watch Knocked Up. I'm listening to the radio at the same time and I finally hear the sounder. I freak out and pretty much throw Alex off of me cause my phone was in my pocket. I start calling and calm down. But then everyone decides to whip out their phones and call as well. Chris even got the house phone. Chris actually got through with the house phone and everyone else got busy signals. This really made me ecstatic. Everyone seriously just dropped what they were doing and helped me and they really didn't have to. I didn't know what to say besides thank you several times, but I really did appreciate it. Alma even said she tried to call in another day. I'm so grateful, seriously. You guys are awesome.

Okay. Now after I won the Vegoose tickets and freaking out on the phone with Jessica, I'm at Alex's. I'm jumpy when he opens the door and I'm about to start screaming again. He leads me to the backyard, so I was a little confused but still jumpy. I even jumped around in the backyard.. though I realized his grandma was there talking and then I felt bad. I calmed down finally. I had so much fun though. We had a fire going on and sat on blankets. We cooked hotdogs and made smores. My first real smore! Except I used cookies haha. The moon was really bright and it was the perfect weather. It was a ton of fun, seriously. I've never done anything like that before, not even close. And his family was awesome to talk to. I wish I could just talk to my parents like that.

And even Alexa mentioned she tried winning tickets for me too. Thanks for thinking of me, seriously.

We went to Alex's room after we cleaned up and then I ended up passing out. Pretty much right after I said I never had braces before and I would bust out a random laugh [Dallas knows... cause he made fun of me for it].

October 25

This day is my sister's 30th birthday. Oh my god she is old.

Okay, I'm not trying to be mean, but I seriously dislike sitting next to Victor. He reaks of B.O. everytime we have class. I believe he works out right before he goes to History of Rock, but it's starting to get on my nerves. I'm always leaning close to Josh or the empty seat next to me and it's awkward. I did my Japanese homework the entire time during class and a bit after. Also talked to Lucile. I ended up getting a high B on my midterm. I guess I didn't do that bad of a job in guessing on the chronological order of Beatles' albums part.

Japanese is seriously a drag. I can't speak for shit. The homework is getting tedious because she wants full complete work of however many pages and accuracy whenever turned in.

I went back to the Rave office to complete something I forgot to fill out apparently. And the question was if I was ever convicted of a felony. I don't even know why I looked past that. Haha.

Afterwards I went to Dallas' for a little bit. Found out they were going to watch Martian Child and I got super jealous cause I really wanted to see it. And learned some of Niki's pick-up lines. Such as GET AT IT, SLUT, which is pretty much incorporated into my vocabulary now. gg.

I left to go return the RedBox DVD's finally. Except, I had to wait a year to return them because these Mexican bitches took their time in choosing ONE movie. I got really angry and sat in the chair next to them. I think I stole the security guards seat but he didn't seem to mind.

I sped a bit to Tofu Hut to meet with my family for Angie's [sister] birthday. I told my dad what I wanted already and when I get there, they didn't even order yet. And they acted as if they didn't know what I want, even though I told them specifically what it was and how it was on the front page of the menu. Useless.

So November 1 will be Chevelle night with my sister.

Oh, I didn't mention this earlier but, I texted my sister while I was at Dallas' giving her some lame excuse about having to go fill out paperwork for my new job and how if I don't, I don't get the job. At 7pm. The same time Martian Child was playing. I know, I'm such a bitch. But I REALLY wanted to see it, and I need to conserve all the money I can until I start working. But yeah. Everyone bought it. I sped to Palms and got there just in time.

It was such a cute movie. I love John Cusack. And boy, that kid was super pale. Is that even natural? Or possible?

okay fuck im falling asleep. i'll updated the rest when I can.

VEGOOSE

Okay, I will update on the more sappy stuff later when I don't have to sleep.

First of all, I called several times to X107.5 and didn't even think I had a chance at being caller 10. I probably called in a good 5 times and it actually went through which surprised me. It kept ringing so I figure what the hell so I wait on it. And Attention Deficit Dave answers.

On-Air
Dave: Hello, who's this?
Me: Uhh, Charlene.
Dave: You sound really surprised that the line went through.
Me: Yeah, actually I am..
Dave: So, why are you calling?
Me: Uhm, to win Vegoose tickets?
Dave: So what bands were you looking forward to seeing mainly?
Me: Daft Punk and Muse most definitely.
Dave: Well Daft Punk is headlining on Saturday night and Rage Against The Machine is headlining Sunday night, and there will be a bunch of cool other bands playing before those.
Dave: Well lucky you, you're caller number 10! So you won the 2 day passes and will be able to see the bands you want to see!
Me: No way. Oh my god. Thank you so much.
Dave: You are so welcome.
Dave: Just tell us what radio station hooked you up!
Me: X1075!

Off-Air
So I give them my info. Then it got weird.

Dave: SO Charlene, are you extremely hot?
Me: Uhh...probably not?
Dave: Probably not? What's your MySpace?
Me: uhm.. myspace.com/violetrays
Dave: violetrage?
Me: no, rays.. r-a-y-s
Me: I'm probably too young for you guys..
Dave: Too young? Well it looks like you're 18, but if you're too young, we can take these tickets back.
Me: OH nonono.
Dave: Oh my god, you're a white boy!
Me: Haha, no, that's my friend.
Dave: Oh, so which one are you?
Me: The middle one.
Dave: Aw, you're pretty cute.
Me: Uhm, thanks.
Dave: So, I'm pretty sure we're making you feel really uncomfortable right now talking to you like this huh?
Me: No, I'm fine haha.
Dave: I guess Lemmy won't be lucky.

The weird conversation was worth it. I remember when I won The Shins, I was jumping around like crazy at Aloha Kitchen cause it was the first time I ever won anything. Then when I won the Interpol tickets, I was pretty mellow about it. But oh my god, after I got off the phone realizing what just happened, I started screaming so loud. Then I called Jessica and screamed for probably 6 minutes. We both screamed.

I was really bummed out in not going to Knotts-Scary Farm cause I've never been to Knotts before. I still am bummed out cause it'd be a really awesome experience, especially for the Halloween time. I was also getting real bummed out about not getting through for tickets on 107.9. Especially since theirs is a random drawing and not a definite daytime pass and such. And getting more bummed out cause tickets are roughly $80 each day and I really want to see Daft Punk, which is on Saturday, and Muse, which is on Sunday. I swear to you, there will be so many videos and pictures. I am going to make sure I have the best time of my life since I can't come out to Knotts with you guys.

Get It Faster

Okay, time for a somewhat meaningful post.

I swear I was tired. I really was. But then Alex, my other friend, called me and asked if she could get some stuff cause she ran out.

Well I stood outside with her and talked for about 20-30 minutes or so about what's going on in her home life.

Right now I'm back tracking. Back in the day, Alex and I used to hang out 24/7. I can't remember if I mentioned this in this blog or not, but anyways, we did. She still lives like a 5 minute walking distance from me, but we don't hang at all. I know I mentioned that she became this huge party girl. Well anyways. I was stuck with her 24/7. After school I'd spend time there and then go to work. Then after work, go to her house. It was a ridiculous routine, but I loved it. I was extremely close to their family and they loved me. Well it got a bit excessive at one point. To the point where they'd ask me for rides to here and there.

It was fine cause I loved driving... and it was my mom's car. But then it got aggravating to the point where her mom would rely on me or even called me when I was at home. She really was a nice lady but it really started to get bothersome. Especially her psycho obese boyfriend, Oscar. I'd give Alex a ride to and from work almost all the time. Her work is just up the street, but again, rides rides rides.

Well, to be honest, I can't really remember how exactly Alex and I stopped talking. I think it was from talking to Cathleen and Jessica so much about how stressed out I was. They told me I should lay off in hanging out, so I did. Slowly I wouldn't be over as much and not on the phone as much as well.

There was this one day though, I remember. Jessica was on the phone with Carmela and was told that Alex kissed Carmela. Alex was really drunk. Blah blah blah. Jessica, Cathleen and I go to Alex's but I didn't go up cause I didn't want to see her in that state of mind cause I had shit to tell her. I remember going home and Cathleen IMing me, telling me about what Carmela told her. Mind you that Carmela and Cathleen are sisters, and they pretty much tell each other everything despite their differences. Well Carmela was talking to Alex and one of her brothers, Chris. I guess Chris wanted to know who started this whole not talking thing cause apparently Cathleen and Jessica stopped hanging out with Alex too. Chris suspected it was me who started it and talked shit or something and said "it's okay, she was just a ride to the supermarket anyways." This is where I gave up on that family. I was angry. I was truly hurt. Of all the shit I did for them, I was just a ride to the supermarket? Oh, and Alex didn't even kiss Carmela. Miscommunication.

Moving on. These days, I see Alex like once a month. Well, she got into her family situation, as usual. She's always had family problems. I knew that first hand. But I guess she wanted to fill me in on what I've missed for the past half a year.

She's starting to get it real rough. Oscar got caught with a crack pipe.

Cory, her other brother, is in North Las Vegas with their grandpa cause he got kicked out. He's 17 right now. I guess everytime they go out to North Las Vegas, the brothers always get into some shit, so right now, Cory has been banging a lot.

Chris went to North Las Vegas for a week and already got jumped into a gang.

Christina and Justice, her 2 younger sisters, got picked on at Diskin a lot. They'd come home with scratches and bruises which really pissed me off. So now they go to Frank Kim.

And Alex went job hunting today. Hopefully she'll get a job that pays roughly 15 and hour and says she'll save 3 full paychecks and move herself and all the siblings out of the house. I believe they may be getting evicted, even though Alex is paying rent. Her mom is a real dumbass with money and spends it on the most useless and unnecessary things.

I'm really glad she is finally thinking about moving out. It's been a talked about subject for years but it's about time something gets done. I really hope the best for her.

I guess the whole point of this entry is, I finally don't feel sorry for her. I do feel a bit guilty for thinking she complained too much about how bad she has it. But I always knew she'd find a way out cause she's a really smart and bright girl. I just hope she can figure something out cause she has 4 siblings. None of which have graduated yet or wanting to. Or at least her brothers.

I really hope I can use her as an example or something and just appreciate everything more. Not just when I go to other people's houses or when someone holds the door for me, but when my mom comes home and actually greet her and maybe have a conversation with her. Maybe even call my dad and see how he's doing. As of right now, I've been visiting my sister quite a few times at her work, so I'm sure she appreciates that.

I need to keep things organized and my room clean. I need to do a lot of things. Too many things. But I am on the right track in getting a job and hopefully a second one already.

I need inspiration. I need positivity in my life. I'm going to figure shit out. Actually study for tests. Do things when asked only once or even before asked. Just fucking do something with my life. Stop wasting time.

Slow Hands

I honestly don't know where to start.

First. I got a call from this law office that I inquired about via craigslist. I was surprised by the call cause it's been about a week of no response. I was pretty excited and the lady, Kristin, and I talked a bit. She lastly mentioned how she was impressed that I was part of Key Club cause she was part of it when she was in high school. SCORE. Key Club finally came through for me. She even said with my hectic schedule, they're really flexible and just looking for a part time person. That I could even just do all my work in one day out of the week. I was like wtf? So I'm quite excited for the interview on Wednesday.

I pretty much used IMDB to help me with my Memento questions. It really is a good movie, but it's been a few years since I've seen it and barely remember anything of it.

I studied for my psychology exam while I was driving.. :x I even took Hacienda all the way down. It didn't really work out as I wanted it to. I guess it's just somewhat better going home, even with all the traffic. I don't know, whatever, I tried.

The psychology exam was kind of difficult but apparently we were only supposed to answer 50 out of the 60 questions so we'd have a 20% no matter what.

The box office didn't know anything about Dethklok.

I got Chevelle tickets. My sister should be pretty excited. Oh and I even picked up the Interpol tickets. Kind of weird how they don't have a charge amount on them.

I ended up picking up Jessica on the way home so I could go carpool with Alexa.

I got a letter from Rave saying that I got hired. This is the first job I've got without being recommended or knowing someone. I'm really happy. Even though the pay is really shitty. $6.33. The hell is that? But then again, I didn't expect much since it's a movie theatre. But they do tuition reimbursements, so I need to find out what that means.

Oh, and Tiffany sent me another postcard. I think I'm going to go write her and Ron a postcard after I'm done with this.

Finally ended at my place but everyone bailed so I had 2 free tickets. It was really hard trying to persuade people to go cause mainly, no ones even heard of Interpol. Josh is pretty much going to be super busy tomorrow so it'd be bad for him to go to a concert. Kevin and Cathleen ended up coming though, which was really awesome for last minute planning. Kevin's never been to a concert.

So, I brought my camera, but had no battery. Cause it was on the charger. I was pretty pissed. But although, they got really strict for some reason. They confiscated all the purses and said there were no cameras of any kind allowed. That's the first time I've ever seen that. I hope it wasn't cause of the Jimmy Eat World concert. Cause that's what I love The Joint for, being able to bring a camera. Oh and we missed the first band, again. The Liars. It seems like they were really good? I should go check them out.

Okay, so I don't even know where to begin or how to even describe Interpol. Out of the 15 songs or so, I knew 11. They had 5 squares behind each of the band members that went along with the lighting. They had a backdrop with a projector projecting random pictures. These things are not at usual concerts that I go to. The only other concert I've seen something like that was at the Deftones concert, and that was at the Pearl. It was really different. Just the way everything was set up was just awesome. Then the performance was just amazing. The solos. The instrumentals. A lot of instrumentals. And it was simply amazing. I've never been so... moved. If that's the right word. The only other show I felt was really intense was The Sounds Of Animals Fighting.

I'd really love to see Interpol again. Oh, and they ended the show with PDA.

Oh and I just found out I got an F on my psychology exam. Yay, I'm stupid. And I didn't study. And there was a curve. Wooo.

Oh well. My Monday was quite amazing.

Public Pervert

Guess what! I WON INTERPOL TICKETS!

Well first I saw a whole bunch of messages from Jessica saying she won the tickets and I got super excited and called her. I knew the ticket was for me but YAY. Then I decided I should try calling. And I got caller 68 and yelled at the guy :x Then I called AGAIN and got 69. Hearing myself on the radio is weird. But yay! Now I got extra tickets and we'll all split it or something. :D

The hike to Red Rock was fun. But it really occurred to me how out of shape I was. I've never climbed anything besides stairs before. It was ridiculous how hard I was gasping for air. I suck. But it was fun nonetheless. I'm really glad I'm not afraid of heights. The cliff to cliff hopping and scenery probably would've given me a heart attack.

It got super cold up there too.

The walk back down was super fast and not tiring. I guess it was cause we were going down. The drive out was interesting cause of all the turns and loops and whatnot... and slow drivers.

Went to Alexa's house and ate the pizza that her mom went to go get. Thank youu <33. I was a bit jealous cause she made chicken adobo later but I was too full to eat. It's okay, I had adobo last night.

OH YEAH. I WENT TO THE JIMMY EAT WORLD CONCERT. That was pretty damn fun. I recorded quite a few songs and took some pictures. It was really hard with the tall people. Oh, I love being short... not. I was a bit angry when they finally noticed me recording and told me to stop, that it was during one of my favorite songs, Polaris. I got all these other songs I like. But no Sweetness or The Middle since they were the last songs. I love how when you're at a concert and when people finally get a little rowdy(sp?), you get pushed to the front. Cause that's what happened during those songs, so I took some better pictures. It's a bit ridiculous. That was the first time I've ever been to a show and it was like super dead. Or I guess Deftones, but then again I was at the rail, so I wouldn't know.

Oh, and one thing I'm always going to keep in mind. Park at PF Chang's always. Never park at the garage. Ever since doing that for the Linkin Park concert, it's been the best idea ever. The garage is bullshit and when we walked by, cars were backed out into the street just trying to get into the garage. And when we go to the concert, there wasn't even that many people. We missed the first band too. I think their name was Maritime?

Jimmy Eat World concert

and shitty ass videos cause youtube is a piece of shit.

What elseeee.

I think that's it.

I'll go upload pictures from Red Rock in a jiffy.

I've Just Seen A Face

So... I ended up not having that exam cause it's actually next week. Thank goodness. I decided to do major job hunting. I sent a good 9 inquiries about jobs on craigslist. I even went down to the Forum Shoppes to apply at Express..except I didn't apply cause I saw like 10 people on the floor. I don't know why I got scared to just ask for an app. The lady on the phone sounded Filipino so I was excited. I texted Richard on my way there asking if they did group interviews, and I guess they do. So that disheartened me a bit. I hate group interviews. Ever since Ruehl. Fuck that place.

I visited my sister instead since I was running late for class. I caught her and David right before they left work. So I ate dinner with them and played Guitar Hero. I was supposed to watch Memento with Andrea and Melyssa for Psychology but I ended up not going. I have to remembe to write a paper on that movie. I ended up going to Ross with Jessica and got some jeans and a jacket finally @__@. No more holes... and rips please.

The History of Rock midterm was... hahahah. I feel bad for Josh. I hope we all did well though.

Oh, and I did, however, go to an interview for Rave Motion Pictures on Thursday. One on one interview pleased me. So did my answers. I'm very hopeful for the job. At first I was pretty skeptical in working at the movie theatre, but at this point, I just need a job and I shouldn't be picky at all. Plus I gave them a pretty good amount of hours to work with. I'm so glad I went though cause I really thought I couldn't find the place and plus the gates were locked since it was 5pm already. I almost gave up and left. Plus their phones were busy. I really thought it was a sign.

The Office episode was really cute. Jim. :] Dwight :[

I woke up late for English today. Bah. He forgot to give me a notecard saying what time I got in class, so hopefully I can lie about not being late for an hour :x Good news, no English next Friday. Thank you Nevada Day.

I visited my sister again after class. Ate and then left to Dallas'. Dallas and Alex were going to make Indo Boards but couldn't get some 6" Ferguson pipe thing. Uhh. Haha. And Alma and I kind of house sitted. I was just exhausted all day, even though I woke up late. Sorry guys for passing out everywhere we went.

I was really hoping for Rendition to be such a good movie. I mean it looked great. Jake disappointed me. But he was still hot. :]

The only MAJOR thing that happened was the popcorn falling on my lap and I just stared at it.

All I remember after that is passing out at Dallas' with yo-yo being thrown at me. Then passing out at Alexa's. Thanks !

Yeah, I'm still awake. :\

This Could Be Anywhere In The World

I'm so addicted to this song, I don't even know why. I wish Cathleen let me come with her to the Saosin show, I would've really liked to see Alexisonfire. D:

I ended up picking up Jennie after Japanese to go eat at Chipotle. I guess we're going to eat again and she's treating to pay me back for tutoring her.

Afterwards, I went to Target finally. I got a door shoe rack and a belt/tie organizer thing for my closet. FINALLY. I've been needing to get organizers cause my closet and room is a total mess.

I reserved a table at BWW and waited for everyone to come, including Chris and Isaac.

Probably first time I didn't get Dip N' Dots.

I killed my gas by "racing" Isaac. Except, we weren't racing. :(

Alex's facebook is totally supergay. :)

Sorry Alexa for the bumpy ride home.

I don't think I'm going to take Rainbow again. But, I like going over the railroad tracks :x

Oh fuck, I forgot I have an exam for Psychology tomorrow.

Pace Is The Trick

So I finally dropped the package at the post office and got an application. Tried to surprise my sister at her work but I guess she was at the Renaissance Festival. So I went to go drop off my ticket to Craig P. Kenny. Well, while there, the lady was asking for all my personal information outloud. Okay, phone number, I understand. But why are you asking for my address when you have a copy of my driver's license right there? Why do you have to write it so large for the whole world to see. Or at least for the scrubby Filipino or Thai looking guy who was staring at you writing my fucking information down. Not only did that make me angry, but when leaving the office, they kept trying to drive next to me. Not just that. They followed me. When I thought I lost them, they sat next to me and stared into my window at me. And wouldn't stop staring. And then they tried racing me on the 95 with their Honda Civic, probably 95', cause that's my favorite. But they killed it for me. Oh yeah, I beat them on the freeway. Scrubby ass piece of shits.

Moving on.

Joannah just turned 20 on the 11th. Carmela turned 17 on the 12th. Jessica turned 18 and Maricela turned 19 on the 13th.

Jessica and I watched Across The Universe on Friday. I loved it very much. Singing along with the movie just made it even better.

This 30 year old Filipino guy was hitting on Cathleen in front of Ichiza. It was scary.

I ended up staying up all night finishing my drama. Geezus, I haven't cried so much in so long. I'm such a freaking loser, but it was good. >_> Yeah I didn't sleep until 10am..

Saturday...

Jason called me asking me if I wanted to hang out with him and Joey Alexander. I haven't seen Joey since elementary, and I think I'd like to keep it that way. I also rather not see Jason cause he's fucken crazy.

I went to go to NYNY rollercoaster for the first time with Jessica. It was alright. My right shoulder is bruised though.

Jason ended up calling me back blocking his number asking me wtf happened without letting me know who I was even talking to. Fucken :(

Jessica and I split. I went to the bonfire park to meet up with everyone. Niki, Chris and Billy were the only ones there. Well with these dumb 4 bitches from Sierra Vista.

The night was good with the marshmallows Alex and I got. Alex burned his shirt. :\

Alexa, Alex, Dallas and I ended up going to the tunnel. We actually got a tube and we ended up sitting in there and relaxing for probably 25 minutes.

Alex and Alexa were touching me :\

Sunday...

I ended up going to the Casanova's BBQ. I always love their food. Unfortunately, Geo and Lukas were there and irritated me.

Man, I'm mean.

Afterwards, Alma and I went to Dallas'. I told her she should call before we get there but she said no. I always call before I go somewhere so I know the people are still there before I waste my time. Guess what. No one was at Dallas' and his parents just looked at us weird. Good job Alma. hahah.

Chilled for like 10 minutes then sped off to Mandalay Bay to meet up with Jessica. We waited in line and then stood on a side railing cause all the seats were taken in the restaurant. Hour passed and finally Michael Showalter came out. Didn't even see him be escorted. Then he wanted to redo it so then we high fived him. Good shit.

"So I have a lot of trouble sleeping because of my downstairs neighbors always throwing loud parties. Well my girlfriend at the time told me that we should try a pill. I'm not a big fan of sleeping pills but she said that it's like a vitamin. So I thought I'd try it. So I took the pill and right after I had to pee. But as I was just about to pee, the urge to want to sleep came over me so fast. Faster than me wanting to pee. So as I walked to the bedroom, I had pee dripping down my leg. All I remember is passing out and waking up the next morning. I ask my girlfriend, what the fuck did you give me? She said it was Seroquel. I thought, that doesn't sound like no vitamin, so I went to google it. I find out it's a pill to help cure schizophrenic patients."

- He starts to list what else the pill cane help with and symptoms.

"May cause paranoia."

"I saw this commercial on TV and it was about some new pill to help with restless leg syndrome. Also known as, jiggly leg, jimmy jams, jumpy leg, sewing machine leg. The pill was called ReQuip."
"I had athlete's foot at one point. But to be honest, it makes you proud to say. Not like when you have hemroids and you say it under your breath. But when you go to the counter at the pharmacy and ask for medicine for athlete's foot. I've been playing A LOT of SPORTS, therefore I have athlete's foot. So I think some problems should be renamed. Just to feel more proud to have it. Like gonorrhea. Rename it to, FUCKER'S COCK. Or dandruff, SPRINKLES."

Then Michael Ian Black came out. Even better. I couldn't stop staring at his pants though. Like he had the ripped holes for the jeans around the knee area. Except, they were at his knees and were around his mid calfs. It bothered me a lot haha. There were so many dumb bitches at the place. One kept saying "I heart balls in my mouth". And another was saying she went to UNR but she just made a huge fool out of herself making Michael think you don't even need high school to get in.

"I google myself 3 or 4 times.........a day. And I learn that people post on message boards titling Gay? or Gay. I swear I'm not gay. I'm married. To a woman. With a penis. I also have 2 kids. And boy and a girl. But anyways, my whole life, like in high school, I had a nickname... faggot. Well, I have a few ideas that would un-masculine your friends....."

Actually, I just found the skit on YouTube.

He got into how he first took 2 hits of LSD and was in the badlands of North Dakota.

Of all the hotels, I don't know why they're staying at Excalibur.

Well after I picked up some Sonic and headed over to Dallas'. We went back to the cave except with Niki, Maricela and Jessica added. Dallas, Alex, Jessica and I ended up running through the 2nd part of the circle pipe tunnel thing and had to run hunched over. Dallas went ahead a bit and found an opening. We ended up being by the 215 and Jones. The walk back was dreadful. I hate flats and feeling rocks stabbing through my shoes.

Okay I"m done. This post is long enough.

P.S. I like sleeping to the soundtrack of Across The Universe.
P.P.S. I finally was able to make a CD after wasting 25 blank CDs.

Eva

Tired of Ariel's shit.

I'm tired.

I'm very much into this Japanese drama I'm watching right now. Already half way through it.

I don't know why I felt so generous in letting Tina borrow 200 dollars yesterday. I guess it was cause I knew in the end, I'd get an extra 40 on top of it. But I don't think it's worth it anymore if I had to drive to Galleria and Tina is getting 160. I think she should give me another 10 or a lot more. I mean it IS my money? Just like her position. Or we could even split it. Whatever. I know she won't think that and be hella greedy before even thinking about it.

I need to be more patient with my mom.

When I went over a train track, I wished that my mom and I would get along better. Then this guy almost hit my car right after and I honked at him until he finally got into my lane. He is so lucky we were 700 ft. away from the cops ahead at the 'Welcome To Las Vegas' sign. Piece of shit.

I gotta go drop off my speeding ticket at Craig P. Kenny's office soon.

For once I talked instead of hanging up on the people from 107.9 and actually asked my question.

I need to be more productive.

I need a job soon. Money is starting to get tight.

I bought Chiodos and Michael Ian Black tickets. I never watched Chiodos before, but I've seen Cinematic Sunrise. Well I'm mainly there for Emery and Scary Kids Scaring Kids. It'll be fun. First time I'll be going to a concert with Cathleen in more than half a year.

I got a 99% on my Japanese exam. I'm kind of pissed cause I mixed up my sentence structure. Oh well, good enough.

I learned that I suck at speaking Japanese. Full sentences. I just can't remember which order they say things.

I think I have 5 credits for this Psychology semester. Good. No more experiments.

Sorry for the pessimisstic entry. I feel lazy.

No Ordinary Love

I finally got caught up on Heroes. I was rewatching the first episode of The Office when Alex called me to go out and eat. I kinda lagged cause I wanted to watch a little bit more of the episode haha. We ended up going to Fazolli's where I hella wasted my food. I don't know. Maybe it was from the hangover or something but I felt sick afterwards.

Alma's birthday is in about 29 minutes. We're going to go bowling at 5am :D I'm excited.

I'm kind of glad Nevielle didn't call me for First Friday cause I'm really not up to drink right now. And for some reason I'm super tired even though I slept all day. Maybe I'll try to hang with her tomorrow night before she leaves.

I'm going to finish watching The Office now. Late.

Riders On The Storm

Okay okay. So yesterday hella ran into random people at the library. For the first time since the 3rd day of school, I saw Sirena for a split second. Amani and Traycee saw me, so that was a good reunion. Lots of random faces. Afterwards I headed to History of Rock and watched Max and Bryce make fun of Josh for getting run over. Or I guess they didn't even believe he got ran over. It was pretty rude of them and I got annoyed cause they still don't think it's possible.

We sat down in class, but then Josh mentioned that the Wellness Center was celebrating it's grand opening so they were giving free hotdogs and food. So we walked out of class before it started. Plus it was disgustingly smelling like Panda as usual cause of that fool in class. I guess the BBQ ended up ending already. The Wellness Center is huge though. Really nice. Josh and I might start ditching History of Rock just to go exercise during that time or something. Didn't know it was for free.

We ended up talking for a while and my hair getting owned by the wind. Then we moved to the library area to sit. Bryce saw us but refused to go walk up to us. I ended up ditching Japanese class as well. And we ended up talking until 4:20ish? That's a little over 3 hours. We finally decided to just go get Pho. I can't believe I wasted so much time talking to him. But it was actually what I've been wanting all school year. Just to make a friend that I can sit and talk to for hours. He's the only friend I've made that enjoys my company. Or I guess actual friend cause I don't talk to anyone in any of my classes. Fuck I need to learn how to be more social.

Well after I went to go get some Dip N' Dots with Danny. Talked about how crazy Suzanna is :\. Then I went to Nevielle's kick back. I wasn't planning on staying that long cause I had class at 8:30am but yeah. Hah. Obviously from my last post.... It was a good night. For the first time I talked to the Haberman twins. Kind of sad even though we went to Spring Valley together and we always seen each other. Or I guess at parties.

I'm surprised I even woke up this morning. I was so gone. I had to type all my essays as fast as I could and I ended up only having 30 minutes to get to class. I got in right on time and had the worst hangover in class. I realized how much of I loner I am in there. Everyone got to the point where most of them go outside together to talk and I'm hella inside just acting like I'm on the phone. I tried to mingle but it didn't work. Bah.

I went to go get Taco Bell in hopes to ease down my dizziness. I drove to work to help out my co-worker hopefully one last time. As I waited for her, I passed out in my car. Woke up and still had no call so I passed out again. I passed out in my car for an hour. She didn't answer her phone so I just went home. To pass out. Found out she was at work the entire time. So I said I would go back but then I passed out again. I suck.

I think I should be calling Nevielle soon cause she wants to go hit up First Friday. And Beauty Bar again. I think Kenny is going to have a kickback at his house as well tonight too. I wonder if we're going to that.

I think Bryce is mad that Josh and I talk. In general. He didn't want Josh knowing my screen name on AIM or talking to me in class. It's kind of awkward. I don't know if I should feel bad or not.

Good news is, my hangover finally passed.

Hi

I'm drunk.

Love Will Tear Us Apart

So I'm a bit angry that while eating at El Polo Loco for the first time, trying to enjoy the food, my lip ring falls out. Not just that, I couldn't put it back in. I don't know how it healed up so fast, but it did. And this very much upsets me. Getting it tapered would be cheaper, cause all you have to do is tip them, but it's the most painful process. And I watched Richard do it and he looked like he was going to cry. So fuck that. I'll jut wait until it's fully healed up AGAIN and consider repiercing it.

The drive on the 215 was really relaxing. I honestly enjoyed it. I always thought about doing that when I'm just driving around but I guess I never wanted to end up lost or something. It'd be nicer if my car was a lot smoother and less noisy haha.

I hate fences. I had a bad experience with one before. Tiffany would know. Today I ripped random parts of my pants cause I'm dumb. Oh well. The journey through the tunnel was interesting. I've been in it before back when Kevin Lo had a birthday party or something. I can't really remember... I just remember being at his parents house and we all went down there getting scared. This was back in 9th grade summer I think. Well I went down there tonight with Dallas and Alex and they were trying to rape me. Just kidding. Many sexual innuendos and being left behind when there's no light happened a lot. Haha.

I got an essay to do for Poli Sci. I'm kind of screwed. But I'm kind of lazy as well. I'm sore from walking so much and from yesterday. I also have all these random cuts on my arm and hand from the fence and who knows what. :\

Sam's Town

So techincally Alma will be calling me in almost exactly 1 hour from now. Oh fuck, I'm still awake. Well I ended up following my own advice, and making that new blog. And I totally feel a lot better. I even shed a lot of tears. Good wake up call to myself. Yay. Accomplishment. Should I just stay up and go to breakfast? I wanna read, but I know I'm going to end up passing out. I wonder if I'll wake up.

Oh wow, I never mentioned it in my last blog now that I think about it. My Psychology class got cancelled due to my teacher's eye being all messed up and she can't see. So tomorrow, no school :D My first cancelled class. I don't know why I"m so excited. Maybe cause I don't have to drive down across town for just one class. Yay.

I'm going broke fast. I don't know where my money is going to. Mainly food. But it's getting ridiculous. I need a job fast.

Again And Again

You know what? I'm going to start capitalizing my words. I'm going to try my best to actually write like... I don't know, but better. Cause I feel like a little kid writing lazily. I'm also thinking about making a new blog. Starting from scratch. And actually really confiding into it. I don't know if I'm going to share it though. Maybe after I get some entries in. I guess I'm following the trend of blogs with you guys, but I really feel like I'm taking this for granted. Maybe I'll keep 2 blogs. This one for my daily unproductive doings and the other where I'll blog when I feel strong about something. I don't want it to be random, but consistant in each blog. Or maybe I'll just resort back to my other journal for my nothingness.

So much work. But I'm sure it'll really benefit me in the long run. Especially when I decide to look back on all my entries and think, damn I was a dumbass, or dang, was I really that intelligent for that brief moment?

We'll see.

Until then.

I know I'm a coward, but Niki, I'm sorry for being such a bitch to you. I don't know what came over me. But I was really rude. REALLY rude. I hope I made it up to you by playing sports with you and whatnot. Hah.
(I apologized. We talked about it. I feel a little better about myself.)

And Bryce. I was hella bashing on you today too. In front of all your friends. I'm sure your self esteem really dropped. I'm sorry for that as well.

Also, I might make a new blog cause this was actually just for a joke. and my url is really ugly. ijustcutmyselfrealgood? Who's gonna take me seriously with that??

Downfall

i was gonna blog this morning but i figured i'd wait. kind of glad i did.

so i got a message from Sheryl Bon on facebook. cool cool. but then she asked me about my religious views cause i guess she never asked me before. she got into detail about everything. i told her that i haven't found what i was looking for quite yet and she got into more detail. to be honest, i didn't even read it. she said she didn't want to push her views on me, yet she did.

so i get to school and this guy is chasing me with a pamphlet. i forgot what it said, but it said something about finding jesus as well. i found out there was a booth on the way to CBC, so i put the pamphlet back on the table and walked away.

is there something going on today?

well anyways, i got a text from angela saying that her class got cancelled. so i told her don't wait up for me cause she usually has like a 2-3 hour break. so i go grab some burger king and get all self conscious because this guy wouldn't stop staring at me eating.... well afterwards, i had my experiment pool appointment. i ended up running into Josh and Victor. found out their class was cancelled as well.

josh and i were joking about how he'd blame me if he somehow messed up his leg and he couldn't drive. but then we were like yeah, just sit in your car and they're trying to tow you, but you're in the car. i don't know, you just had to be there. cause he was freaking out about his car being towed because of the place he parked.

during history of rock n roll, i get a text from Andrea saying her class got cancelled.

what is up with these weird events today.

i totally aced my jap test. she said it would take 30 minutes, tops, and i figure, yes, im gonna finally get out of class early for the first time. well im the first one done with the writing portion and pass out. and i think for like 40-50 minutes. apparently she was grading last minute homework............................ the listening comprehension took about a year and then in the end, i was only 10 minutes out of class early.

i got texts from josh saying that his car was still there and good stuff.

i went home and waited for alma's call. i was talking to Josh and ...

went to dallas', then to eastcoast pizza. alma made a 'charlene jr.' puppet of me and it was awkward, cause she was talking to it. a lot. and feeding it.

we finally explored the new park by me and alma. at first i was skeptical about the place cause there was so much landscaping with rocks, and then different kinds of rocks. but actually, it was quite fun. i enjoyed our time there very much. i even learned how to play volleyball. except i almost hit Dallas and Alex in the face :x. but i think i sprained my left thumb cause this is really hard to type. and i cant really bend it well.

i went out exploring the other side of the park and it like just ended abruptly which was really weird. im hoping they finish that side too cause it was just desert. but then again, along the side of flamingo, it's desert as well.

Alma totally attacked me with the frisbee. lololol.

so i guess Danny and I came to conclusion, we're both scared and irritated with Suzanna. I feel awfully bad but I seriously forgot why I stopped talking to her. and apparently Danny deleted his myspace the first time because of her. gg.

Dirthouse

fucking piece of shit day.

im gonna fucken choke a bitch.

i got over ariel calling me. i gave joannah advice about shit and it cheered me up.

but what the fuck.

i got my first speeding ticket today.

late for class 10 minutes because of it.

i ended up parking behind the library and paid for parking. i was hoping that i wouldn't get a ticket, especially with my luck today.

jennie and jeffery were the only people who came for the study session for japanese. except jennie was the only one who really needs help. so in the middle of helping her, jeff gets up and leaves. 2 hours. she doesn't know how to read. our exam is tomorrow. gg.

good news is, i didn't get a parking ticket.

btw, ariel also called me so if i could pick her up so she can go to school tomorrow.

i get on the 215, get on the 1-5, then try to get on the 95N. traffic was fucked.

was on the phone with my sister about the ticket and ariel calls me about 5 times in a row. i finally answered it, asked her what the fuck she wanted, was on my way then hung up. she got mad, called back and tripped out. didn't want the ride anymore even though i was halfway there. my sister told me to just go get her anyways, so i did.

i call her 5 times, she refuses to answer. i text her that i'm outside. i see some guy come out of the house so i get out. i see that it's ryan, in only a fucken towel, and his friend, who wouldn't stop cheesing at me. i ask where ariel was, ryan tells me that she fled the house and walked out. he was also on the phone with her, said that she was on her way back. the friend was making me feel uncomfortable and trying to hit on me, so i went back to my car. i hear his friend ask if i wanted a beer. the fuck.

ariel finally comes back. i figured it'd be awkward silence or some shit but she just started talking right away like nothing. i ended up lecturing her. supposedly she broke up with ryan and wanted to get out. whatever.

and then i finally get home. i get this prank call. they said their company name was ACN, and im thinking, oh not again. but then they said they sell asian products and kama sutra books. and if i was using visa or mastercard. i was like wow, late.

found out jessica got a prank call just after me exactly like that.

then i find out. heroes was on. too bad i don't have the fucking channel.

im fucking hungry, irritated and exhausted.

and ariel didn't even give me gas money. just less than half bag of hot cheetos. gg

fuck yo couch.

Swing Life Away

you gotta be kidding me. so i learned that crista is living with shantia. i figured she was just over there 24/7 cause she has a car. but damn, i must be stupid. not only that, shantia's mom bought her a cell phone. so this means shes had the chance to call me but she hasn't. thanks.

fuck it.

i don't know what happened to my 'best' friend.

i lost her.

to some lowlife dumbass who thinks education is a waste of time. graduated only because crista paid for his shit.

working because crista filled out his job application.

smokes weed, does shrooms and drinks with his ulcer in his stomach eating him away.

im gonna go stop by her mom's house and give her mom the money that i already gave to crista, but she probably never gave it to her mom. so i'll just owe what i need to and then be done with this shit.

The Kennedy Curse

I remember now. I went through 10 blank CDs to make a stupid CD. and it's not even that good. I'm sad.

im kind of pissed that ariel woke me up to ask me for a ride to work. not just that. she said she'd call back. did and begged me for a ride. about 5-10 minutes later. she called back again. and said she didn't need a ride.

ariel stays with her boyfriend, ryan, out in centennial. durango and 95 north. i get angry when she begs me or jessica for a ride, yet complains how she's failing school. i wonder why.

and why keep a job if you have no stable transportation.

have ryan get a fucken car. he's 21 now for crying outloud.
