GUESS WHAT? I'm going to update now. Because I have nothing else to do and because I actually have something to talk about. And no, this time I won't mention Avril. Oh shit, there I go. Oh well. I hung out with Mandy Moore and Trent Ford in asscrack of dawn this morning. I caught Mandy walking around so I snuck up behind her. She didn't appreciate that. The bruise on my arm is proof enough and pretty convincing that I shouldn't sneak up on a girl when she's bent down and tryin to tie her shoes.

We walked towards the closest Starbucks since there was a Starbucks nearby, she said, that opened up that early in the morning. So we were walking... la la la... and BOOM there was Trent on his way to the same place. He looked like shit hehe and said he needed something to wake himself up since he didn't have any caffeine at home. AND WE ALL KNOW that Starbucks is the home of caffeine. We walked inside and sat down at one of those tiny round tables by the window after we ordered our coffees. We didn't say anything for a good ten minutes I think we were still trying to wake up or something.

This chick at a nearby table recognized Trent and Mandy and completely spazzed. She was all "OH MY GOD AREN'T TRENT FORD AND MANDY MOORE FROM THAT MOVIE? I'M A BIG FAN YOU GUYS ARE SO COOL". And we all gave each other a "what the fuck is this chick on" look and after she left, we figured she must've had too much caffeine because she was all up in their faces being stupid and airheaded.

We all made an agreement that next week, we'd take whoever we can and meet up with Elijah Wood in New Zealand. Everytime I hear New Zealand, I think of four-leaf clovers and leprechauns and I said so until Mandy laughed her ass off at me and told me I was thinking about Ireland. :-[ Whatever, they're all the same to me. New Zealand, Ireland, what the hell is the difference?

Trent didn't say anything much until after we got our drinks and he got wired. The guy didn't stop talking from Starbucks until we left to go back home. And that was about three hours later. It was cool though even though I've never met anyone who talked so damn much about COFFEE for crying out loud. He's a cool guy though. I think Mandy hates him or something, she kept flicking frappucino foam at his face with her straw and yelling BULLSEYE whenever she hit his eye. I think she's off the hinges, if you know what I mean.

So Trent went off to do his own thing and I walked Mandy home and she kept rambling on and on about candy and babies and Joel and I finally shut her up and sticking a drumstick up her nose. She got mad and smacked me upside the head :-[ But I bet anyone would've done what I did if they wanted her to be quiet. She talks a lot. But at least she's not boring.

The end.

I said I was going to update. Look at me update. I finally got a hold of Avril. FINALLY, God-damn, woman. I swear, she's harder to find than a needle in a haystack. I also kicked myself in the ass and asked her out on a date. I stumbed around a lot and I'm sure she was thinking that I'm some sort of idiot, but she said yes, so I'm one happy fucking camper. Damn, I broke my own promise to myself and said I'd show up a lot. I'll be around tomorrow though since I need to be doing something today. I was looking through a lot of pictures of the other day with Avril and I found all these pictures of me and her. I noticed that in nearly all of them, my arm is hanging around her or something. Either way, we'd be touching. I think it was kind of obvious that I had a crush on her. That's kind of embarrassing when you really think about it. Everyone thinks that Avril and Evan have this secret alliance going on with each other romantically and to tell you the truth, so did I. I at least thought that she had feelings for him and would never go for me. But she told me that she liked me. She even gave me a kiss. It was brief and small, but it was still a kiss on the lips. I don't know if I should be scared that when she kissed me, my heart jumped up and down like a jumped mexican bean, but I was really happy. I wanted to smother her in kisses but I restrained myself. I don't want to scare her off and have her think that I'm some sort of perverted mother fucker or something but she's just so fucking cute it's kind of hard to keep my hands off her. She dies a lot when we talk in IMS though. I think it's because I die on her first. I won't die anymore. I had a valid excuse for dying on her though. I was looking at pictures of her and I was kind of sitting there in a trance staring at her. She has the bluest eyes I've ever seen. She's really beautiful.

Look at my layout. Mandy made it for me. I'm fucking fat.

Yeah so I think I'm flying into New Zealand soon with Mandy to see Elijah. At least that was in my agenda the last time I spoke to her. I haven't seen Avril in probably forever, which you know, sucks. But what can you do? I've actually been around a little more often. At least often enough to know that I'm going to New Zealand to watch hobbit-play!

::twirls a pencil lazily in his hand and sighs::

I'm going to actually not lurk for this week and actually show my face around. Because I like to bother people. Especially that Alyssa girl. She's crazy.I think I'm scared of her and at the same time I'm not scared of her. I don't make sense sorry I'm stupid.

Have you ever wondered why they do those shitty infomercials that nobody ever really takes seriously? I mean, come on, are you really going to believe some plaid-covered nerd on your TV screen advertising some soft cushions soles for your shoes guaranteed to take away your arthritis pain in your legs? What the fuck? How do they come up with this shit? Let's not forget the spray that covers up your bald spot if you select the bottle with your hair color on it. What the hell are these people thinking? This is what toupees are for, assholes. What happens when it rains? Haha, does the spray wash away? It's like HOLY SHIT YOUR HAIR JUST MELTED OFF YOUR HEAD AND NOW YOU HAVE THIS PERFECTLY ROUNDED CIRCLE ON THE TOP OF YOUR HEAD HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?!??!

I spend too much time in front of the TV.

POP UPS DIE!! ::stabs them with his drumsticks::

I hate internet pop-ups. Where do they come? Why must they bother me? They just like to piss me off. Anyway I feel bad for not updating as much. I tend to comment more than update. I'm only a comment whore, sorry. I just read Avril's update. She likes me too! ::grins and dances up and down the street::

She likes me. She likes me. She likes me. She likes me.

She likes me and not Evan. ::grins:: Oh. Don't tell her I said that. She might shove her cleats up my ass and we really don't want to see images of Avril's cleat prints on my ass. But then again, that might sell on Ebay and I can get a shitload of money. Then I can be a Mattionaire. That was a retarded thing to say, wasn't it?

Mandyyyyyyyy! I'm going to your premiere because all this talk about it has got me curious. Avril is going to be my date even though i haven't asked her yet. :-[

Oh my God. An actual update because I actually did something yesterday. I talked to mandy_moore. Yes! I signed my ass online and spoke to her. We mostly talked about Avril though. I told her I'd be back at night to talk but I got caught up and forgot to do that. I'll do it tonight, though. That is, if I don't forget again. I don't even know why I'm still clinging to thoughts about me and Avril, I don't think it's ever going to happen. She's my bandmate. She's way too good for me. Plus I don't think she even sees me that way.

I'm just Matt. Matt Brann. Drummer of Avril Lavigne's band. A native from Ajax, Canada. I have nothing interesting going on other than the band thing.

Maybe I should just find someone else. Someone who's... not Avril. Because there's only one Avril Lavigne in this world and to me, she's unattainable. I don't even know if I should listen to Mandy. She said that nobody's unattainable and that if I tell her how I feel, I might be surprised at the response. It sounds like good advice, right? But it's always easier said than done. It isn't like I'm going to just walk up to Avril and say, "Hey. I like you a lot. I want you to be mine." Uhhhm? I might as well stab myself in the eyes with the ends of my drumsticks ok?

I gotta change my layout. Do you see how boring it is?

Look, you just saw Matt's remarkable ability to switch topics like it was drilled into him at an early age. Matt thinks that's cool. He's also not sure why he's writing in third person.

Matt thinks he should say goodbye now.

Goodbye.

WOOHOO. A new update. I bet you thought I couldn't do it. Wrong. Bam. Here I am. I thought I oughtta give you a new and improved update since my last one went down the drain. I haven't seen Avril much which is stupid because we're in the same band, but I haven't seen her. After the show, we go off into different directions. I go into my hotel room and she goes off to wherever she goes. She has more of a life than I do. I stay in and sleep. Charlie makes fun of me because I got this tiny crush on Avril. Yeah you heard right. I have a crush on Avy. It sucks. I think she likes Evan or something. I'm just the stupid drummer boy. Which is cool, I'm perfectly content sitting behind my drumset and watching Avril do her thing because she's amazing and talented like that and I count myself lucky to be her bandmate.

I've been doing a lot of catching up on reading my friends page. You people are just filled with drama. I'm glad I did a bit of hiding away. I was never good with drama. It makes me cry. Hah. seriously. I'm not kidding. I hate being in the middle of something dramatic. It drives me insane. I try to keep my life drama-free. Hence why I'm not in love or even in a relationship with anybody. It's too much drama and at the end, no matter who breaks up with who, I get hurt and I don't deal well with being hurt. Wow, look. Matthew's actually talking about his feelings.

To Avril )

Yeah, let me pull my heart off my sleeve and just tuck it back in now.

I'm back. Oh yes, I am. I'm back, I'm back. I'm back because Avril is back. I've missed her. And I don't know what to update about right now. It's been exactly a month since my last update in here. Does this mean I'm going to update only once a month? I have no idea. Actually, probably not. I downloaded some song that Mandy told me to download of Joel and Benji's tribute to Kylie Minogue.

That was the most disturbing thing I've ever seen.

AVRIL. WHERE ARE YOU?

Subject:A Day out with Mandy Moore
Time:1:26 pm.
Mood: recumbent.
Woah, I finally have the chance to update. And a real update no less. I think Avril and Evan ran off together and died or something. I've been left behind as usual. This only means I get to keep everyone to myself. ::grins in turn at everyone and slaps his drumsticks against the edge of the table::

I hung out with mandy_moore today. She caught me just as I signed online this morning and asked me if I wanted to hang out with her cause she was bored. That hurt my feelings. I told her she only wanted to hang out with me because she had no one else to hang out with and she covered it up by saying she wanted to get to know me. It was a really nice save, and it convinced me. So I signed offline and met her at McDonald's like she suggested. I've only seen Mandy at award shows and shit but I never really met her face to face and I've never talked to her in person before either so I was kind of nervous. I'd heard she was nice, but it could have been just rumors. No one is ever really that nice. And I hope that j__madden won't come hunt me down with a knife or something but when I saw her standing in front of the doors dressed only in these skintight jeans and this itty bitty shirt, I... well, I'm a guy, guess what happened? I thought she'd be taller in person since I heard she was pretty tall, but she was actually pretty short. She smiled at me when she saw me and waved even though I was already in front of her. I don't know if anybody's noticed but she's really fucking gorgeous. No offense to Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera but I personally think that Mandy's a whole lot nicer looking. She doesn't cake on the make up and she's got the "girl next door" vibe working for her. Also, she has a really nice singing voice. And I guess I stand corrected because she was really nice.

She wouldn't let me pay for our lunch even though I was handing over my money. I had to take it back because she stomped on my foot and shoved my money back in my hands. I've never gotten my foot stomped on before just because I wanted to pay for food so it was something new. We sat down at our table and started to eat. She eats like a cow. Her tray was piled with tons of food. It made ME look like I was on a diet even though I'm usually the one eating everyone's food on Avril's bus. She was cracking jokes and laughing really loud. She even started singing some song into her spoon. It was a song about water. I think it was one of her songs. I engaged her in a burping contest. She won. She belches louder than Evan. I felt like I was out with one of the guys. I should let her hang out with me, Evan, Jesse and Charlie. She would fit in since she's so crazy. We got into a food fight. It all started when she shoved her ice cream into my face. So there you have it. She started the food fight. And we got kicked out/banned from McDonald's because we really messed up the place. There was food sticking to the walls and to the people. It was a pitiful sight. We ran out of the restaurant and started walking down the street towards the local shops and we were talking about any and everything that came to mind.

We talked a lot about her and Joel and their baby. She seems really excited about having a baby and at the same time kind of scared. I asked her about Joel. I probably shouldn't have done that because she went into a ten minute speech about how great he is and how amazing "blah blah blah blah". I think I love Joel from all the things she's been saying. ::laughs:: Listening to her talk made me kind of wish I had someone around to say things like that about me. I kind of want someone to walk around talking about how I amaze them everyday and how I'm such an incredible guy. I havent had a girlfriend since I was in high school. That's pretty bad. We went window shopping for a while until she walked into a baby store and started looking around the things all excitedly and stuff. She found a bunch of baby clothes and ran around showing me what she thought was really cute and what she thought she could get. I told her to buy them but just before she could, she found out she had no more money and she left her card at home. I offered to pay but she wouldn't have it. I felt kind of bad because I could see how much she wanted to buy them.

We left the store and she had to get back. I walked her back to her bus and she gave me a tour of the bus really quick before I said I had to go. She said I should stop by again sometime to hang out with her and everyone else when they were all together. I probably will sometime soon when I find another time to be free. But I had a nice time with her. She's really funny. Like goofy funny. It's kind of refreshing to hang out with someone who's not afraid to act weird and laughs at herself even though any other girl would be embarrassed and run off crying or something.

This was a really long entry and if you read it through to the end, you get a big congratulations from me.
