9:50 pm - to one and all..
well some people have been saying that its time for an update and i guess they are rite lol. a pretty lot has happened in the past month or so, i finally got my license now. its good to be able to hang out with friends and all now. it definitly is great to have a bit more freedom.

i have a truck now for those of u that dont kno, its a '93 ford ranger. its not spectacular, but ive been putting a lot of time and money into it so its all coming together.

theres been some disagreements between me and a close friend. idn if u read this or anything, but im sorry about watever i did that made u say that. i did nothing out of the ordinary, nor do i feel that i did anything wrong. if u disagree, tell me.

conclusion - lauren is the coolest; she has finding nemo on dvd and updates her journal regularly.

current mood: happy
current music: smile empty soul - bottom of a bottle

11:12 am - its about that time for an update...
i havent updated in a while, so i guess i should do that lol. lets see....my car is still bein fixed, and i went to pick it up yesterday then something was wrong with the temp gauge and there wasnt anything wrong with it when i took it in....stupid idiots...anyway

yesterday was a full day, went to get the car, then worked 2-10, then went to the homecoming dance, then the diner, then finally home lol its all good tho, the dance was pretty fun. didnt dance much, but o well.

9:06 pm - jus one of those days...
have u ever had a day where u just feel really good about everything, but for no reason?

i had one of those days today, i jus felt like i could be myself, i havent done that in a long time...i mean, i dont really even have a reason to be happy, its not like i didnt have some classes today, or didnt have a lot of homework, but it was still a great day.

feels like im meeting a lot of new people so far this year which is good, its nice to always be around people you can talk to.

i hope things keep going like this, it'll be nice to have people to hang out w/ outside of school only someone is always working or somethin like that. but thats how its gonna be for the rest of highschool basically, those who have jobs are gonna keep them and those that dont are gonna have to get them soon.

got some new resolutions this year:

im gonna be me and thats it, im not gonna change for anyone else, or act differently because someone wants me to. if someone wants u to do that, they arent reall ure friend because they arent accepting u as who u are

i gotta get over this whole bein freaked out about doin stuff in front of the class, if i dont get over it now, it'll only get worse

last but not least, gotta meet some new people and stop worryin about bein single or not. dont get me wrong, as much as i'd like to be in a relationship, i'm not gonna stress about it

grades....gotta keep those up this year, save the slacking off for next year lol

well........i guess thats about it, feel free to comment on my thoughtless rambling...

current mood: good
current music: simple plan - meet you there

4:06 pm - lil somethin i wrote today about someone....
Stuck in this game of life,
Losing, always losing,
You play me for a fool every time,
Wasting me away, breaking my heart,
Time after time.

I try to convince myself that I am ok,
That I don’t need you,
That I don’t want you,
That I am happy,
But it is no use,
I realize the truth,
Time after time.

I thought I knew you,
Your every thought and emotion,
I thought you cared,
Once again I lost,
Time after time

I told you how I felt,
I tried to make it work,
I tried so hard,
Then you dropped a bomb on me,
Blew my world apart,
Those words, those few words,
"Let’s just be friends",
Tear me apart,
Time after time.

I put on a smile,
And told you it was ok,
Nearly brought me to tears that night,
But I couldn’t let you see that,
It would only make it harder on you,
Didn’t even walk you to the door,
I couldn’t,
I just got back in the car and went home,
The memory plays back,
Time after time.

We didn’t talk for months,
It’s hard to say which hurt more,
You just wanting to be friends,
Or to be happy when I saw you again,
I hurt,
Time after time.

I still put this face on for you,
Try to be happy for you,
You tell me about these new guys,
And it just rips me apart,
Time after time.

Saw you today,
You said you were sorry,
Sorry that we ever went out,
I’m sorry too,
Sorry for doing this to you,
I want you to be happy,
Time after time...

btw, heres my new car

10:22 pm - long time since a real update...
well its been quite a while since i put a real update in here so i figured now was as good a time as any lol. lets see, i'm still workin at kmart suprisingly, i didnt expect to still be there but i think i'll stay til i get my license then i can find a good job and not hae to worry bout how far away it is. school starts in one week, i dunno if im ready to go back, it doesnt feel like its been a summer lol. i cant believe we r gonna be juniors, time is flyin lol. i think we've gotta start gettin everyone together again to hang out and such.....

the boat hasnt really gotten too far, still sanding and such, i hope to be able to spray the white on, or at least prime it before cold weather sets in, should make it easier come springtime.

i think i found a car that im gonna buy, now everyone muast promise to hold back the laughter, but his car is gonna be my daily transportation til summer when i'll have to find somethin to tow the boat, but i digress, its a '97 taurus w/ 89000 miles in ok shape. hes only askin $2600, so i'll have plenty left to rebuild the boat motor should i choose to do that. im still waitin for the guy to call, but hopefully it'll b soon..

today was an alrite day, got an early start today around 5, and we went down the shore to crab and saltwater fish. it was alrite, didnt catch much, but definitley got burnt lol

thats all i can think of rite now, but this update should last another month lol

current mood: satisfied
current music: deftones - knife party

11:16 pm - things never work out the way you want
yes, its a fact of life, things never work out the way you wnat them to. sometimes it works out to be better, and others its worse. im not sure what it is yet this time, but ash and i are over (if there was anything ever there). she always said she wanted to go out, but she was always "busy", so i brought it up and we got into this discussion/arguement thing so o well, time to move on, shes not worth the troble over the past few months, and waiting just isnt working not to mention the fact that she just doesnt care.

anyway, enough ranting for today, this summer is goin relatively well, so thats a good thing. still workin about 30 hours a week and my raise should be comin up so im gettin even closer to buyin a truck so thats cool. i should be pickin up my boat on saturday so thats cool. a lot of my money will be goin into that too to get it ready for next summer. hopefully i will be able to get some pics up on here soon after i get it, but its a 19ft cruiser, so it'll be good for in the bays and down the shore.

i was kinda hopin to get out of the house tonite, but everyone was busy so we should be gettin together friday so that'll be cool. hopefully i'll be goin down to the shore next week and the week after that, but still tryin to work out the details of that.

lets see......my party thing will probably be sometime in july so everyone has to tell me the times that they CAN'T go so i can try to find a day where the most people can come. its probably gonna be from sometime around 2 or 3 til dark, there will be food and stuff to do, so if u wanna come, let me kno

anyway, download some 'fall out boy' songs, they r a really cool band, u will probably like their stuff

current mood: blank
current music: fall out boy - the patron saint of liars
