Music: Dashboard Confessional [oh yeah, oh yeah]


So. Death cab was amazing !!!
The wait to see them was the worst though. +/- and Ben Kweller opened for them.. and we were super close to the stage.. but I got so fajunking hot in the middle of Kweller's set I felt like I was going to pass out.. so we left the crazy crowd [the show was sold out] and went to get a drink and such. So I saw DCFC from afar, but it was still goddamn amazing.
The best part was they played "Styrofoam Plates"... my first ever DCFC song. So. It was awesome. Almost all the stuff came from Transatlanticism, but thats alright. They played a three song encore.. oh sheesh. <33 I can't wait to see them again.

-shrug- thats about all for now.
Crazy life as usual.

I got my proooommm dress today!!! YAY! Its so hot, I love it. I don't love it as much as my homecoming dress, but I love it just the same. Its a lot like my homecoming dress and I wish I could put a picture of it up on here but mom doesn't want tom seeing it early, haha, so maybe someday. It was cool though, first dress I tried on, first store we went into. Oh yes.

Last night was actually fun. Amanda, Tom, Zach, Jess, Karen, Pat and I all went to the Pit. A couple of bands from school were playing and 2 more bands. This was Pat's first American show [he just recently moved here from Australia] so he was excited. There were more people there then I had ever seen at the Pit before. It was fun, though. We didn't get to skank like we wanted to, though I got like thrown onto stage when the mosh pitters ran into Sam who was behind me and she ran into me. Owie. Oh well.

After the show we took Pat to his first time at Waffle House! It was good fun.. no one else was there except us so we ate and listened to music on the Jukebox. Amanda bought Avril Lavine of all people so we all busted out into "Skater Boy". Pat said he thought it was only in the movies that Americans broke out into song. Haha. Then everyone just went home. But, it was a lot of fun, I'll admit.

So today Mom and I went to the mall and like I said, I got my dress. I also got a pair of capris from Gap... Oh yeah. They're hot.

So now I'm trying to waste time before we can leave to go to .... DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE!!!!! I'm sosososo excited. Oh yes. It's going to be great fun.

So. I'll go now....bye!

Music: dcfc


I simply hate how no matter if we are in a fight or not, I cannot feel like my friends appreciate me. Well, a select few of them. They never come to me with their problems. I'm always the last one to know. They never ask me for advice... anything.
Am I that bad of a friend?
Then if I say anything about it they always use the boyfriend card. Like, I can't relate to any fucking thing on the planet because I have a boyfriend.

But if I actually said anything against that I would just be the bad friend again, wouldn't I? -sigh- Fuck high school. Where is college? Where is release? Where is change? Where is consistent happiness?

I have a rash now from a reaction from my strep medicine. How special.

Tomorrow my 'friends' and I are going to a show at the Pit.. a bunch of local bands.
And Saturday is DCFC!!! I'm stoked. But thankfully only Tom and I are going. [that sounds awful, ugh.]
this is fact, not fiction for the first time in years....

I also feel like I have to tip-toe around a lot of people's feelings. And, I hate that.
Why am I the only person who seemingly has a problem with anything, ever?

I'm just having one of those nights when I don't want to be here. I don't want to be in this apartment, in this skin, in Missouri. I want to walk outside right now and drive for hours until I stop somewhere and just cry. Eat, and come home. Or, just stay wherever and start over.

Well, wishful thinking, right?

the atlantic was born today and i'll tell you how:
the clouds above opened up and let it out.

i was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere
when the water filled every hole.
and thousands upon thousands made an ocean,
making islands where no island should go.
oh no.

those people were overjoyed; they took to their boats.
i thought it less like a lake and more like a moat.
the rhythm of my footsteps crossing flood lands
to your door have been silenced forever more.
the distance is quite simply much too far for me to row
it seems farther than ever before
oh no.

i need you so much closer

i need you so much closer
so come on, come on

i'm the girl who can't stand to look at orion's belt tonight.
i'm the girl with the messy brown hair and un-done face.
i'm the girl who causes all the problems.
i'm the girl who is fighting back tears from nowhere in your car.
i'm the girl who is ripping you apart.
i'm the girl who is lost in her mind tonight.
i'm the girl who wants to crawl underneath and never surface.
i'm the girl who...
...
...apologizes.

Music: death cab for cutie - we laugh indoors


I am so. Excited.

One week from today is the Death Cab/Ben Kweller show.... Tom and I and... a bazillion other indie kids from St. Louis are gonna be there... Oh geeze, I'm so sosososo excited. !!

I'm feeling better... I went to the doctor on Wednesday and he said it could be mono/sinus infection/strep. He took a strep test and it showed up negative, but gave me these huge pills to take every 12 hours. Mom thinks I have strep anyways, since he said I had the "signs" of it, but she had been giving me antibiotics and so it may have screwed with the test or something...? Anyways! So now I have these big big pills to take. I'm feeling a lot better, my throat is almost completely better, but my nose is still runny and stuffed up. But, I'm improving likewhoa. I was supposed to work from 3:30-9:30 today but Mom called in for me. Yay mom. :)

So now I have to write an essay thats due on Monday, work on my Antigone lines [the play is in less than a month!!] and possibly work on Trig homework. Tom and I are gonna hang out tonight.. wooo. :)

Tomorrow is my Girl's State interview. I got selected along with 2 other girls from my school to go for this interview for Girls State, which is a sort of leadership/political thing that happens for 6 days over the summer at the Central Missouri State University campus. So, I'm a bit nervous. I'll letcha know how I did.

Well, I guess I'll get crackin on my essay now. :/

P.S. HAPPY SPRING!!!!

Tom spent the day with me, which made me really happpppyyyy :).
We played Nintendo 64 and watched Dr. Phil and ate BK and watched 16 Candles. It was a good time.

My throat is still all swollen, Tom and I might be heading to the doctor, if Mom can get me an appointment tomorrow. -crosses fingers- Mom says it might be tonsilitis... eeps. :(

Anyways... I am going to bed soon... Ciao, yo. [haha, Chris.]

Is it wrong for me to think seeing a Switchfoot video on MTV is totally weird and wrong?

Music: maroon 5 - this love


Mmmm Thin Mint Girl Scout Cookies. They're only good frozen, you know.

So I went to bed at 9 last night and woke up very frequently in the night [thanks, godforsaken throat] and finally gave up at 7:30 this morning. So, here I am, on my Spring Break awake early and sick. Erg. I called in to work... I was schedualed for 5 to close tonight. So, thats off my shoulders. Hopefully Tom can come over tonight and we can hang out... I miss my boy.

So thats about all for now. I hate rap music. But I love Maroon 5. Oh yes.

I hurt likewhoa.

My throat is in pain... its like knives when I swallow.
My jaw has started to hurt... just an aching pain.
My ears have little sharp pains too.

I wish it would go away... it is very very very not fun. :(

Eeps. My throat hurts likewhoa but. I'll get over it. -sniffle sniffle- I have un cold. And my foot is asleep. Man, what a complainer I am. :/

Anyways, good news!
We had our Speech MSHSAA [Missouri State High School Athletic Association] Districts tournament today. Chris and I did Duet Acting... and we got 2nd place meaning that we're going to state!!! I was and am just so so so stoked. I didn't think we'd get as high of a placing as we did... but we did. Go us!

So I'm happy. Mom's away tonight and I want Tom to spend the night likewhoa but I'm sick, and I have to go to work early, and I want to go to sleep ASAP. :( I miss him. I want just to fall asleep with him.. I feel like we haven't in forever... our 1 year is coming up... oh sheesh. :)

Anyways, I guess I'll go now. Ciao.

woke up to the chill of fall.
this sucks like. a lot.
Its 8:12 A.M. on my first day of spring break and I cannot fall back asleep. I think it is because I fell asleep at 8:30 last night. The past two nights I have been pulled off the couch my my mother and told to go to bed because I have fallen asleep at rediculously early times. So. Here I am.

I haven't substantially updated in a while, and this hopefully won't be a big one. Things have gotten much better. I got a car!! It is a beautiful 1998 white dodge intrepid. I love it. Still haven't talked to Dad... its been almost 3 weeks now. Special, heh?
This week was a big controversy between Amanda and I. I'd rather not dive into it, but like always it was ended with a mere apology and hug. Like I told Tom, I'm just waiting for it to happen again. Chris and I had a small falling out on Wednesday, but we talked for over an hour after practice that day and everything is fine. He's my best friend in the world, I'm positive about that. We "share a brain" and we have the same humor and we can actually talk things out. I love him to death and I hope he knows that.

Tom and I had our 11 month anniversary on the 8th. Yay! Its been a long time and things are so much less rocky then they were a few weeks ago. Go us, babe. :)

Yesterday I got the shoes I've been waiting for... My orgasmic CHECKERED VANS!! They have been out of stock for-ever and Tom called me from the mall on Wednesday night saying how they just got them in. So, yesterday we rushed up there and even though they raised their prices $5, I bought them. And I love them. Oh yes.

Today I'm headed to Chris' to practice Duo for speech... then Tom and I are hanging out for the rest of the day. We're going to see the new Johnny Depp movie that comes out today.. I think its called Secret Window. Anywho, it looks really good.

DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE CONCERT IN 2 WEEKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ciao.
