shock me [14 Nov 2004|04:07pm] but i just keep on laughing, hiding the tears in my eyes..

2 were totally awesome |shock me [17 Oct 2004|12:23am] Where did I go? I really wish I could die in some big accident. That way, it would be out of my control to prevent, but I don't know how hard I would try to avoid it. Whatever happens, happens, I guess. I've just given up on trying or dealing with anything. I feel like I'm borderline agnostic or something and everytime I get depressed I do shit I know is crazy and I would never have done in the past. I don't want to stop either. I really wanna' meet someone. I don't want to work or go to school anymore. I just want to..I don't know. I can't think of anything I want to do with my life.

2 were totally awesome |shock me What we do in life echoes in eternity. [13 Jul 2004|03:07am] [ mood | complacent ] [ music | the smashing pumpkins ] No sleep. I want to shave the back of my head. I hate having long hair in the back. I can feel it bothering my shirt collars and whatnot. Bah. I missed class yesterday because my cell phone alarm was set to PM and not AM. I've been eating normally again. I guess it means I'm in a healthier mental state? When I was all depressed like I would have a few chips to eat everyday and that was it. It was weird. I REALLY need to start exercising again. My arms are...nothing. I get winded going up a flight of stairs, it's ridiculous. Anyhow, I'm watching Gladiator right now. I really wish I could be like the character of Maximus..I mean, I want to be able to hold on and steadfast to such a strong moral and value system. Even in the face of adversity and temptation..to not give in. I want to be able to say no to the secular and immoral pleasures that my current society has deemed as common life. I have a strong distaste for a lot of my generation. They're nothing more than a mass of worldly pleasure seekers who are all about "living in the now" and having fun rather than being something and living forever. I've gone on and on about the subject so many times before but it doesn't mean anything to anyone except maybe Kim and/or Lucy. People say they aren't addicted..but they are. Everything is about drugs, sex, popular music and partying. It's crap. So many people I know live off of their parents and hate them, yet have never held a job or anything. They expect everything to be a party. They want everything but they don't want to work for it. All they do is talk "I'm really going to have to knuckle down" blah blah. But they won't. We're all slowly learning that fact. It's been a few years now and it's only gotten worse. In the beginning everyone said "Oh, it's only once or twice" and I constantly made my worries clear that it would grow..and it did. It is still today. What was a once a month thing became once a week, once a day, multiple times a day. Before, after and during school. Then it lead to betraying friends, putting on a mask of "Oh, I love you!" then "I hate that person" and eventually led to experimenting with even more things. It has become an obsession, with people naming the tools of their trade, devoting entire entries to their love of these pleasure, yet omitting the darker angels of their nature because they're ashamed of what they really do. Lying to people, never settling down, playing the victim. Shove it up your ass. If you can't man up to the shit you do then stop pretending to be so innocent. All of this goes beyond the drug problem, the drugs are only gateways. After that the people normally get into the physical pleasures of the opposite sex. Of course, it's not kosher to commit yourself to one person these days, it's all about having multiple partners and not caring about cause and effect. And then they become total slackers who do nothing with their lives. They have trouble asking themselves and answering truthfully "Has anything I've done improved my life?" One cop out I don't like is the "It doesn't matter what you do, it's what you mean, or what is in your mind." This is bullshit. Screw what is in your mind. Our actions make us men. It isn't our words, our thoughts or our beliefs, it is what we do in life. When we see these 10 year old hoochie mamas at the mall wearing miniskirts and skintight tubetops hitting on guys in the parking lot who are 8 years older than them we know where they got it from. They look up to their older brothers and sisters who get drunk, high and wasted and make out with all these different guys all the time and talk only about how awesome it is. But I'm no better than they are. Anyhow, this is just a random subject I was thinking about as I watched Gladiator. Live in the now my ass. Live forever. Well, it's four in the morning. Another day has gone by. They're going by at an alarming rate. Summer is almost over. It really makes no difference though, I've been working and going to class all summer anyhow. I'm sort of dependant on my schedule. If I didn't have these challenges to keep me occupied I fear I would go mad. I guess that's why I chose to start a business? If you want to try something hard, try that. I promise you it's more difficult than anything you can imagine. I like it when something in life seems insurmountable..unattainable. It raises the bar for the next time and if you fail, who cares, there's always next time. Unless of coure you're too busy living in the moment. Of course, I need to apply this to my love life where I fail. But there are variations here. The most powerful force on earth will take me a little bit longer to conquer. Of course, I don't claim to do any of these things on my own as Christ is the only reason any of it is possible. I need to manage my money better. I seem to be having trouble juggling paying for my car, cell phone, insurance, gas, clothes, food, entertainment, tuition and books etc and all of that other stuff. I mean, I've had to pay for most of these since I was sixteen, but now everything seems to have been multiplied tenfold. I don't think I'm anywhere near ready to live on my own, and to tell you the truth, I can wait. There are so many CDs, and DVDs I've been wanting to buy..but I don't. Those are on the very bottom of my list of priorities. It was a mistake for me to be talked into a cell phone but oh well. And I drive everywhere...I don't know why. I hate driving. I have been buying many clothes at Express but I've been using my tip money and I feel better about it because for one thing, I need to be able to sell myself--to sell The Bubble. Today is going to be so boring. Class in a few hours and then it's off to work on the Bubble and then it's straight to work. BUT! Afterwards I'm going to Alison's to watch Return of the King again hand in hand so the day is worth it. I feel sort of bad about using Kim's discount the other day for my Bartender's Guide..she's apparently had some rough times at work lately and I always come and bother her. I really feel for her, she works some crazy hours and juggles class, and keeps up her photography and other talents. And living like 15 minutes away from everything doesn't help and she has had some troubles at home in the past as well but those aren't my place to talk about. And yet she still manages to devote so much time to Jake and to her friends with a minimal amount of selfish bullshit. She works hard for what she does and she isn't given enough credit for it. I just think she should know that there are those who hold her in high regards. She reminds me of the main character in It's A Wonderful Life. Emily Bratcher is someone else we should all look up to and respect. As for me, instead of Maximus, William Wallace or Spider-Man, I'm more like Salieri(sp) in Milos Forman's "Amadeus". I'm Woody during the middle act of Toy Story. But I shall continue to work on bettering myself. Well, it's about time for studying. Until next time, dear Blurty! -Mario out.

3 were totally awesome |shock me [12 Jul 2004|01:01am] [ mood | content ] [ music | weezer ] Blurty blurty blurty! Yay for blurty. Just got home from Alisons...listened to Weezer the whole way home...sang along every word..blissful, it was...yet bittersweet. They can be so heartwrenching in the wrong(right?) mindset yet so jubilant in times of contetment. So today was much of the hand holding thing. I was glowing. It was abolute heaven. Simple handholding. She came back from four days in Oklahoma tonight and the first thing she did was call me to hang out. Earlier today I hung out with Ms lauren and saw Spider-Man II again which was excellent. She is a rather fun gal, I think I bore her severely but she is a joy to be around. After that I came home and did the whole picking up of my mom from work, LJ, etc etc. I returned Split T's call and Ben and Dano invited me to a Japanese Gorefest but apparently it was a DAY gorefest and not a NIGHT gorefest so we missed it. How sad. So alison and I ate at La Cabana and were connected at the palms, later we picked up Split T and in an awkward event..picked up The Hayley and so the handholding had to be postponed until the hayley was dropped off after watching Split T skate for about an hour. Then..Return of the King at Alisons...*sighs* Saw Charlotte and Piper today in the mall parking lot. I've been seeing/talking with the fellow with some frequency. He's a terribly nice fellow. He has offered to help with the Bubble website. So Alison said we're dating! Woo! So this month I've spent almost $2,000 on various expenses. This blows...hard. I STILL need to talk to the Chamber of Commerce. Hopefully I can get it done tomorrow and HOPEFULLY I don't work tomorrow. One day off per week is the pits, yet cloud nine in its own right. I miss intimacy and physical contact. I don't mean SEX or anything like that but when I was with Kristel there was constant touching..constant contact...it's comforting, I think it's because of the way I was cared for when I was a child. Lots of physical affection which is ideal for children, but when it suddenly stops before the child reaches a point of maturation and it is instead replaced with indifference, hostility and doubt then the child forever feels neglected. Even in highschool...a few of my friends and I were substantially close and I felt comfortable with a certain physical affection which made me not feel so distant from society. It's very comforting. People are too impersonal in the United States. In south american, european and basically every else people greet each other with warm hugs and a kiss, and they aren't shy about "getting all up in yo space". Little things that we take for granted in this "if you bump into me while I am walking you will get a swift 'fuck you' " world. I should probably make this thing friends only...hah! I already made my livejournal friends only for what? A whole 2 weeks? It won't happen. Public is the only way to go. Blunt as a spoon! Did you know that you can eliminate 90% of your friends from reading your posts by making it over approximately 5 moderately sized paragraphs? As long as you don't include many peoples names for them to take interest in or don't mention being upset about a break up or LJ Drama you can ward off any and all viewers. Anyhow, back to marios abstract ideas and general review of life, I feel most out of my league with Alison, in a way I'm not normally used to. I feel like I'm dating some hollywood actress or something. Sure, it's innocent now, but if I don't curb this emotion it could lead to complications in the dating process. I have trouble getting comfortable..unless I dress myself up, ready myself for ages and whatnot..only then do I consider myself at all able to cope with her presence, otherwise I feel like...a sort of beauty and the beast complex. I dunno, it's weird, but I am feeling sublime. I want a girl who will laugh for no one else When I'm away she puts her makeup on the shelf When I'm away she never leaves the house I want a girl who laughs for no one else I want to through Borhila a going away party soon. He will be greatly missed...bah. I hope we are able to stay in touch, Canadian Jon and I have been e-mailing each other but it is still a sad event. I think I upset my friend Emily a lot. Or something. She always gets the impression that I don't like her, even though I think she's friggin' awesome. Then again, B.S. apparently thinks I don't like him as well. Maybe it's a smyth conspiracy. They're all pretty awesome though. Moving on, I really hope I made the right choice in telling Kristel "No, ma'am." Because, for all I know she was bullshitting with all of her phonecalls and emails trying to get back with me and telling me she all of a sudden Loves Me and went on to list all of our memories together...it was crazy...i reread the emails sometimes...she remembers EVERY little thing. I hope it wasn't a mistake. I know it wasn't. She doesn't know what she wants, she can't. She doesn't love me. I don't and never did love her... The dreaded Marco. Anyhow.. Mario needs a revamp. Maybe this new job, new school life, new circle of friends, new girl, all of it..maybe it's telling me something. Mario v.12343546764335 I need to start working out again. But for that I need energy and for energy I need to sleep and for healthy sleep I need a healthy mental state and for a healthy mental state I need a respectable diet. I'm currently working on my eating habits. Baby steps. I question the stability of my sanity. ..........only in dreams.........

1 were totally awesome |shock me [11 Jul 2004|03:25am] [ music | smashing pumpkins ] Blurty my old friend! The long, boring, morning hours bring me to you again as I feel like a total loser for updating my livejournal every five minutes. Of course, this is only the case normally between midnight and five in the morning when I find myself restless and full of energy. I need things to do...to type...oh journals, how you have become my only outlet. How perfect you are. I mean, you're anonymous, online and require effort and in turn fill my heart with joy and stimulation. I am too lazy during these hours to engage in fruitful endeavors, yet too pent up not to do anything. Let's see..what is on my mind? So, I'm sort of dating Alison? I don't know, we've started the hand holding thing but I think she wants to wait it out a bit longer because our best friend, Hayley, likes me, apparently. Maybe she's waiting to see if I go back to Kristel...if that is the case then she need not worry..well, yeah...OK...yeah...she need not worry. I'll admit it though, Kristel does cross my mind in many hypothetical scenarios, such as "what if we did this different.." and "if only this worked.." and of course various sexual scenarios. It's funny, I have a majority of friends that are girls, and I love them to death but my trust issues are so severe it troubles me. I constantly feel paranoid, fearful, worried and suspecting of them. Both friends and significant others alike. Kristel and I had a conversation about this subject one night. A few nights before she moved, apparently I wasn't opening up enough, I mean I was, but she said when I would speak of certain subjects I would look away and my eyes would wander nervously, rarely locking with hers. My issues with confidence and ability to sort through serious matters is flawed and while I recognize the problem I have no idea how to fix it. It has been decided that my parents come into play alot on the matter as they've never really been there for me unless I needed material things but I've never been able to have conversations with them unless I want to talk to my dad and be ridiculed, yelled at and possibly be beaten--or I could talk to my mom who misinterprets everything I do and considers me a failure, possibly gay, possibly on drugs and a hack who follows pipe dreams. I would always turn to my sisters to confide in, but when the occasion arose for them to get ahead they would turn their backs on me or tuck tail and run in my time of need. It's a very complicated problem going on in my head. More hypothesis' and conclusions to come in the future. But if I feel as though my trust has been violated then there is rarely a chance for reconciliation. Enough of that subject, I don't even know what I was saying, it's all so jumbled in my mind. Anyhow, things on the jobfront are fantastic. I work with neat people and make a nice amount of dough. Class is as boring as ever only now I have some crappy old teacher this session. Meh. I've been listening to Radiohead alot lately. It reminds me of things. I never used to listen to them but now I find them to be in my top ten. They really are quite phenomenal. That weird Laura girl I almost made the mistake of going to homecoming with wants to have sex with me, apparently. This is both flattering and revolting. I really need to start seeing people before they leave for college. It's been a depressing cloud that has been growing in my mind for sometime. Oh well, I hardly have any friends in my grade anyhow. I'm not very well liked in my grade. Then again, I'm not very well liked in any grade. This is irrelevant however as I must learn to rise above them all. It is a mission priority. My shortcomings currently outweigh my progress but I still have the motive..I still have the ambition. I can make this count for something. Haven't been drunk since Cayman. That made four times to be drunk this year. I don't plan on getting drunk anytime soon, but drinking commences as a privilege and a pleasantry. I plan to take bartending classes this fall. I want to learn to mix drinks and to become a great cook. Cooking is fun as well. Making things is fun. Creating. I've cut fast food from my diet. Not to lose weight but to become healthy and obtain a higher state of mind. I lost enough weight in June from being depressed....25 lbs in one month. My weight fluctuates far too intensely for me to control. Last year I wanted to bulk up because my wiry, thin frame made me depressed and self concious, so I binged and pumped the iron to raise my weight 30 lbs. This I realized was a mistake and I spent 2 months losing those pounds and so on and so forth...back and forth.. I really don't like myself. I see my dad in me more than I like. This I won't elaborate on but it really gets me. I like my ideas though. I love my ideas. I love my dreams, I have great dreams, how can people not love my dreams? Why can't I obtain these dreams? Once I can match myself with my goals I will be content. But then I remeber the old saying to be happy with what you have...and I am happy, I guess? But I worry that people aren't happy with me and so I become unhappy with them and then unhappy with myself... This entry will be hella' long. I like eliminating difficulty from my life, but I start to wonder, am I no better than them? By taking this easy way out am I simply supplying myself with my own drug? Is it a cop out? Despite the worries in this post I'm currently at a high point in my life, but I can't ignore my worries. Worries that are with me constantly. I've lucked out on so much, and my faith rewards me, but I turn my back on it just like everything else...I always seem to want more. Always wanting. I expect too much. I accomplish too little. I'm sure these are common laments...oh well. Some more lighthearted tidbits...I switched colognes. Since the 8th or 9th grade (or earlier!?) I have been wearing curve. But now, I wear Curve Crush!! The worlds gone topsy turvy! AND I have gone back to my Express for Men ways. Only will I shop there, just like the Mario of yesteryear. I am damn lucky to have the friends I have. Damn lucky. And I'm damn lucky to have a girl like Alison like me...she is a genuinely nice girl...I never usually seem to fall for these types. She has good morals and a solid value system. She's modest and beautiful. I realize I'm lucky to have been liked by many other females..I guess I never realized this because I may not have shared their feelings but it makes you think. What if you gave them a chance? How would things be different? A lot of times my best friends who happened to be girls would end up liking me and totally weird me out. I am a firm believer in plutonic friendship and intimacy. It's quite nerve-wracking. It's sort of like John Cusacks realization in High Fidelity. Sure, Tabitha, Kristel, Jesi, Angie and Sara hurt and were mean and whatnot, but what about the situations where I was in the wrong? What about my actions regarding Sarah, Jennifer, Amber, Ella, Jessy, Amanda, Charlotte and to an extent (though we never dated)Colleen? I guess it evens itself out regardless of my selfish feelings, the world works itself out. But I mean, it can't be that bad...I've broken hearts too, right? Bad/Good, Good/Bad. I have received equal treatment for my darker angels. Alot of people sympathize for me when they hear of my two and a half years of singledom as if I'm some vile troll or weary puppy but most don't know just how many relationships I've had. It's not all their fault. Sure, I stick to my idea of girls uniting together under a conspiracy of evil but I must remember how fickly I am and how much I suck. I can't seem to make sense of my thoughts. I'm eccentric, and complicated but here's what I've gathered for sure: There are no constants, only variables. Every rule and moral has a contradiction. That's all I'm sure of. Figure it out yourself. It's impossibly difficult and wildly simple. It's 4 am. Closing time. Opening time. Everybody in the world is into "indie movies" now and the Flaming Lips. BITE MY DICK.. I told you so. Scene music and hardcore is a terrible, terrible choice of music. So is "punk" and it's many branching genres. I've made many mistakes in the past on related subjects. I feel slightly more matured now. The end of this post is near. I find myself missing Balto. Maybe it's more than just Balto...maybe it's a lot of things...people...ideas...abstract realities.. -mario out.

shock me [01 Jun 2004|01:13am] [ mood | content ] As many of you know, our dear and beloved friend, Canadian Jon, will be moving back to the land of his birth, Canada, on the third of this month. For this reason I declare that tomorrow night...well, technically, tonight, shall be his going away party at Gatti Town. Anyone who wants to go should give me a ring at 281-216-3457 or plan to be there at around 7:00 in the PM. All of this of course is tentative, as I have no idea if he will even be able to do anything tomorrow, but hopefully it shall work out. So yeah, Gatti Town at 7 or call me. Bring money/presents and SOMETHING TO EMBARASS THE CRAP OUT OF HIM. The last one is mandatory. It's the party theme. Anyways, I'm back from Grand Cayman. Update coming soon. -Mario out.

7 were totally awesome |shock me [17 May 2004|12:59am] [ mood | content ] Hello again, blurty! Here I come to hide from the world my soft underbelly! There may be drama, I haven't thought about what I'm going to write yet except for the awesome stuff, but there may be so cross your fingers! Things with Kristel are phenomenal and finally being in another relationship is the most euphoric thing I have ever come to realize. She is marginally greater than any of my previous girlfriends and we have only shared a fraction of the time together as with the said priors. The chemistry working between would make Einstein flip out and things couldn't possibly be better on that front..... BUT The girl is now moving in three weeks. What in the hell?! I'm pretending not too be too distraught about it but the fact of the matter is the move will break me. We'll be spending as much time together as possible and well, I'll be able to visit her with some frequency since, because of my mother, I am able to fly anywhere in the continental US for free whenever I damn well please but it is still so tremendously taxing on my already stressed out end-of-highschool body. I had a panic attack on Friday and had to go home. Yeah, I suck. The college front is all right I suppose. Got accepted to UTSA (Austin rejects), Pratt Film Institute in NY ($40,000 a year, no thank you) and Our lady of the Lake(?) whom for all I know are desperate for people so that's a big no. All of this is acceptable I guess but we're pretty poor and my eyes are far too big. I want the world. I want to start a business and I'm gonna' go for it. I must continue to outdo every adventure in life until the day I meet the greatest. I have elected to stay here for this year and take some summer classes and get everything out of the way as fast as possible and obtain the necessary $20,000 for the big time. Soon, my mom will be moving into a new house after this one is sold and I have no idea what will happen to my dad after the divorce. I try not to talk about it much these days but it's got me pretty depressed. As much as I hate to admit it, yes, I have been having pretty bad stress related problems but it's nothing that nobody else is going through. Fortunately, I have stumbled upon by chance the perfect relationship, a prize some will search for all their lives, a somewhat-set plan for the future, weeded out the lukewarm friends and by first glance may appear to have a handle on life...but UNFORTUNATELY, Kristel is moving, the bigger the prize you go for in life--the bigger the risk, I shouldn't have associated with these people in the first place, and school is kicking my neglecting ass. I don't know many people I can keep 9-hour phone conversations with on a somewhat regular basis. It's really not that bad though, I just had to complain to get it out. Kristel and I should be fine, we've agreed to go for it and stay together and I know I'm good for it. Financially unstable we may be, I've already got all I need and I'm not bitter towards those with more anymore. I love my life more than some people who are privileged and just plain lucky, and I don't really mind what happens now. It's not that I don't care, it's just that I don't really think much can get me now. On a sadder note, Canadian Jon is also leaving soon but at least we'll have our trip to Grand Cayman with Jakie Bear next week and a TOP SECRET party for the old canuck. Things at work are fine. I'm starting to get bored but all is well. I hope I pass this physics test thing today. I even prayed for it because I'm a nerd...hah. GOD PLEASE GIVE ME WHAT I WANT KTHX. Oh well, no better person you can ask for help I say, so why not? I've been reading alot lately. I reread Atlas Shrugged, and in one week I read Brave New World, The Corrections, Sex, Drugs and Cocoa Puffs, Fugitives and Refugees, Jesus Among Other Gods and started Inside the Third Reich the other day. Oh, and I read the communist manifesto today. I guess there really is no drama. Fancy that! I feel bad for you suckers who got it! SUCK IT! NO DRAMA FOR LIFE! Oh, and Tabitha is pregnant. There's your drama, sorry only like two of you knew who she was. Oh! And what's weird is that Kristel lives in the same apartments as Tabitha...and her apartment has the same layout and model....and Tabitha tried to hook up with Kristels brother...WHILE WE WERE GOING OUT. Whoop! -Mario out.

shock me I've never seen a man eat so many chicken wings. [12 Mar 2004|02:55am] [ mood | complacent ] [ music | living end ] So Philip makes the creepiest entries ever. Hahaha. Anyone ever see the Cable Guy? Yeah, they're like that! Anyhow, tonight I saw The Living End, Jet and some other band. We couldn't stay for the Vines because by the time Jet finished playing I was tired of boring music. The Living End however delivered the goods. Tonight has shown me why they have been one of my favorite bands for all these years. Rock 'n' roll, kids! So today shall consist of skipping school and then going to work. And maybe getting a haircut? I had better! I may go to the zoo on Saturday if I do not work because my nice friend Sue who never talks to me invited me, probably out of pity. Did I mention I'm making my first post from my new computer? 1337 Much thanks to Adam for helping me set it up and joining me on tonights adventures. I think I may show up to school to go to my d-hall so I don't get a saturday class and then leave. Perhaps I shall even find Molly and give her a copy of the new Living End album which is pretty good, I must say. It's more mellow than the others but it still keeps that irreverant and mischievious rock 'n' roll to keep the children satisfied. I've been listening to them alot lately, and Led Zeppelin too. Times are good. New DJ BORHILA music video coming out soon so stay on your toes. -mario out.

1 were totally awesome |shock me An Exclusive [20 Feb 2004|11:01am] [ mood | bouncy ] [ music | no music today ] Hello all, this is a blurty exclusive as it is being posted only here for my blurty fans. So today is my first day back in real school as I spent the past ten school days in AC. Luckily, the boys didn't break me in during my time and I learned alot about drugs. I'm not too sure how much of it was true but I'd say I know enough now from eavesdropping to be a chemist or at leat a druggist. Every day in AC for lunch we were presented with a delightful chicken fried steak sandwhich served cold, and aged a few days just how I like them. I received ten days of AC for those damn C.O.C.K.TAIL PARTY '04 invitations while a 3-time offender who got in a fight and beat up some freshman only got 3 days of AC and a kid who was caught selling weed got 3 days, a kid who came to school drunk got 2 days. Of course, passing out invitations to a dry party is so much worse than all of those things. In other news, I am 18 now so "w00t" to that. Saturday Canadian Jon, Hayley, Adam and myself are all going down to Galveston for the weekend so anyone who would like to join just say so! Last night I spent the afternoon and evening entertaining Ms. Jessy at Cold Stone Creamery, then a few adventures to the East and the West. We finished the evening by going to see "Girl Next Door" at the picture box. It was about a B-. It was cute, but not funny or hilarious. Much of its humor fell flat, though, mind you, it wasn't unfunny...it just wasn't humorous enough to incite laughter. The site is set to re-open sometime in the next two weeks. Big time update-age. The whole thing is being redone so it won't look so crappy, we're having things set-up where people can just send in their articles, we review them and they're automatically updated with their username and all. We're also having FACE THE C.O.C.K. which is more or less the same thing as Hot or Not.com only better. Within the next month we also plan to have the c.o.c.k. journals up and our merch section will be open soon. New layout, new stuff, new AWESOMENESS. Did I mention I'm in Multimedia right now? Well I am, and it is no fun at all. We're doing some flash stuff but since I was in AC when everyone else learned it I am left in the dark. Oh well, such is life. Well, that's enough for now. Perhaps if this post is succesful Mario and Blurty can have some more collaborative works. Time will tell... -mario out

3 were totally awesome |shock me The Aftermath [14 Feb 2004|05:41pm] [ mood | accomplished ] Well, I'm just sitting over here watching Reloaded with ol' Mr. Liao. Andrew left this morning. After the c.o.c.k.tail party we gave people rides home then met up at my house and eventually went to cortez's since he still needed a ride and we watched Old School and crashed over there. Oh, and I ate nacho cheese off of my tie. I enjoyed myself last night and I really hope everyone had a good time. It's too bad their was some trouble between some of the bands but I hope it didn't cause them to have a bad time overall. We had a pretty good turn out of about 200+ people show up at one time or another which was awesome. We earned $146 in raffle tickets and I made a good deal of money selling kisses. ( Read more... ) Unfortunately my camera was dumb and the 4 pics I took of Brian Smyths set are gone with a few others that I don't remember. I wanna say thanks to Kaheem for helping make this possible and getting the idea off the ground. Same goes for Quantz and Andrew. I couldn't have asked for better hosts. I also wanna thank Brian Smyth for playing as he lived up to the high expectations I had which is no easy task. In fact, I would say he surpassed them. Thanks to Daryl, Johnny and everyone else that helped make the sound work and all those things. Sorry about your car, Daryl. And Johnny, JA kicks ass. Thanks to our two n00b bands for letting us introduce them and thanks to The Gooches for putting on a really good show, as usual, even though you guys don't think you did well...you did. Thanks to John Baldwin for coming, being a nice guy and deciding the outcome of a very nasty hairstyling contest. Thanks to Katie and Frankie for coming and for having birthdays close to mine..? Thanks to Adam and Cortez for being Mr. Tough Guy securities. Thanks to James for having the patience to sit in one place the whole time and film. Thanks to Canadian Jon for running the raffle table with an iron fist. Thanks to Tanya and Kerri for running one of the tables and kudos on selling like 20 pieces of her artwork and getting much $$$ for her charity thing. Thanks to Tamara, Stacey, Kerri, Wayne, Scenester Guy #1, Random Girl #1, Carolyn, Vanessa, Mary, Random Girl #2 and Random Girl #3 for buying kisses at $1 each! Sorry, not all of your pictures came out because your friends suck at using a camera with a BIG SCREEN IN THE MIDDLE OF IT THAT SHOWS YOU WHAT YOUR PICTURE WILL LOOK LIKE. ( Read more... ) Also, thanks to Andy for helping us out and stuff, sorry I busted your chops. Thanks to Jenna, Jessy, Ash-hole and Shannon for coming and remembering my birthday! Thanks to Summa , Kelly R. and Co. for coming all the way out from Hicksville. Thanks to Colleen for actually coming even though you had your doubts before!

Sorry we couldn’t get your show together because of the CD player problem. Thanks to the Olympians who competed in the hair styling and peep eating contests.

You know in your heart what you should do but you have one helluva time doing it and youre rarely serious enough to try anyhow. But why cant you be a Serious Sam and a Silly Willy at the same time? Which C.O.C.K. Head ist Thou? brought to you by Quizilla no way!

2 were totally awesome |shock me [05 Feb 2004|06:28pm] so my dog just died. i don't really know how I'm supposed to take this but it really really sucks. my sister just brought nikko (her dog) over and he ran around the house happy as could be looking for balto. he still is. in other new the cocktail party is probably gonna end up costing a thousand dollars, amber drive broke up, i have no idea what to do in most of my classes, i'm lonely as hell right now and i've been under more stress than i have been in awhile and i start ten days of AC tomorrow. i'm at a pretty low point right now so i really hope you guys can take it easy on me for awhile or something...if i'm rude or anything just..i dunno.

shock me Ehh [26 Nov 2003|12:03am] [ mood | calm ] Well here we are again journal. Bice goes to Gloria's tomorrow. I may or may not see him again before his departure to Georgia then it will be some more months. It's kind of hard to hang out with people who live IN ANOTHER STATE. Meh. It kinda sucks not having alot of guy friends. It's not healthy to hang out with girls all the time..theyre...weird. I dunno, I become too fem. Anyhow, today Gonzo joined Bice and I to do some thrifting all over town and I picked up some more christmas presents for kids. Before that we visited kim zimmer and we chit chatted and whatnot. Good times. There was a bunch more stuff but I'm too lazy to write it all out.
