hearing: Metal for the Masses II
feeling: Great
wanting: Nothing, for once

Today was fun. Yesterday was my last day of school and because I either had no exams or took them during class, I did not have to go today, nor Monday or Tuesday. So Ashe and I had planned to go to the mall to get Bourbon chicken with Schmidty, Destiny, and whoever else wanted to come.

Ashe called at quarter to 11, and came over while I checked my e-mail, filled out some loan information, etc. We were supposed to leave at noon but I took a while and had to take a shower. finally I was ready, but decided that if we were going to buy anything I had to cash a check, and since today is the last day I get paid form tutoring, asked Ashe if she wouldn’t mind going there first so I could cash/deposit all my checks at once.

We went to school first and Schmidty wasn’t there but we saw him in his car as we were driving away and arranged to meet back there after we went to work and after her dropped Tammy off at the mall. We went, got my check, and returned. We found Schmidty and set off toward my bank but because there’s too many one ways downtown, and I didn’t know which way to go exactly, the trip took much longer and we made many a wrong turns. We finally arrived and it was so busy. Then, Schmidty had to play with the calculator and I was embarrassed.

Finally, we made it to the mall and found Destiny along with Charlie and Chris. Chris elf soon after we bought bourbon chicken but the rest of us stayed and talked for a while. It was enjoyable.

Then we started wandering around the mall, and our first destination was Hot Topic. I wasn’t planning on buying anything but I remembered I had the gift card and the shirt I had wanted last week was on sale, so I bought that along with the Metal for the Masses II CD which also has a second disk with 150 MP3’s.

Schmidty and Charlie left to go to the bookstore and we stopped at the card store where Ashe bought me a bday card with polar bears. It’s cute. Unfortunately, then we lost Schmidty and Charlie because they weren’t at the bookstore when we arrived. We looked for them, and after a while we found Matt and some other chick..

So after a while we decided Schmidty was not in the mall and we would go back to the car. Then we see Schmidty and Charlie and it turns out they went to the library because they thought that’s where we went. I found it funny because my books were still in Schmidty’s car which was locked. At the library they made Charlie throw away my bourbon chicken. )=

So we headed to the library and returned my books and went down to the little park thing by the river. Then I took them across street and we crossed this old train bridge thing which freaked out Ashe. I showed them this place down by the dam which was cool and then we cross the river where the kayaking events will be taking place next month, and walked back to the car. There’s this cool building next to the dam which I would love to buy. It’s brick and has a really old feel, kinda British, to it.

Anyway, then we parked downtown to stop into this shop that Ashe wanted to go to and she found a nice plant to buy her mother. We stopped at this little cafe and had root beer floats, which was fun but my stomach was full and by the time we left I felt as though I was going to hurl. We went to uncle Oscar’s which has vintage clothing, an old bookstore, and then Janke bookstore. Ashe found something to buy herself there, a stuffed duck, and it was fun.

They dropped me off at home and I opened my mail: a letter from my first grade teacher. I think she just changed the names and sent the same letter to each of the students in our class, but that’s okay. She included some things she wrote after our first grade year, which was also the last year she taught first grade in that school. It closed a few years later, and all the classes after mine went to a neighboring school. She also sent each of us a copy of a story we wrote. I’m going to write her back because it was really sweet of her.

Yesterday I called Rian, and that was fun. I really missed him and it was becoming unbearable. On the flip side, I have started to catch up on some things. ;) I love talking to him, though, so I don’t mind being a little behind.

Monday night is graduation and practice is that afternoon. Tomorrow afternoon is both Wendy’s party at her dad’s and Christina’s grad parties and I’d like to go to Wendy’s and show up at Chis’ a little later because it’s a sleepover, but I have no ride to either. Then on Sunday Wendy is having another party’s at her mom’s and I really want to go to that, but don’t know if I can.

Also, next weekend is Christina’s, Melissa’s, Lary’s, and Ashe’s parties. It’ll be insane because they’re ALL on Saturday, and Lary’s is a sleepover. So.. I don’t know. If Tim has the car tomorrow, then things should be a little easier..

Bleh, I’m going to end this now.

hearing: Pitbull Daycare
feeling: Cold!
wanting: my Rian )=

I had the WEIRDEST dream. For some reason Lary and I were up at her really expensive summer house up north, and Holly was there, too. Well out of the blue comes our friend Charles, with whom I rarely speak and he is spending the night. Somehow it was morning and they were firing cannon balls into the lake to look for dead bodies, but one missed and came at us. The rest of the dream entailed my running while holding some little kid, and kicking the cannon ball out of the way. All I know is I accidentally kicked it toward the house (lmfao) and I can remember thinking “Oh, shit.”

hearing: Third Eye Blind
feeling: Hot
wanting: Something to drink
First Wendy needed clothes and Lary got all bitchy about how she wasn’t going to drive to her dad’s house because gas prices are expensive and she was ranting about why Wendy couldn’t drive when she has a license and a car to use whenever she wants. However, I think that even if her parents say she can use the car it doesn’t mean it’ll be available or whatnot, and I don’t think she can take it to school or use it for hours on end. So Lary basically made Wendy sound incompetent and I didn’t know what to say or do.

Once we get to her house I’m shocked because these guys must be loaded. I think they built their house and it’s insanely clean to the point where it doesn’t look like anyone lives in it, and they have like no TV’s. At least, I didn’t see any. The living room is full of plants and it seems like they try to remove any signs of human life. The kitchen has these weird cupboards that are like 7 feet in the air above the normal cupboards and I have no idea how anyone can reach them.

So Lary basically locks us up in her room with her computer and Wendy and I talk for a bit because it’s odd for her to just leave, you know? She returns and at some point she gets all upset because her mom was being a bitch and she was angry with her hair. I think her mom speaks to her a bit condescendingly, so we no longer have to wonder from whence it comes.

Okay. So eventually Lary comes in practically in tears in her “something’s obviously wrong but since it’s not apparent so I look like an idiot” way. And I tried to tell her to calm down and breathe so we could have fun tonight, but she made it into how I was telling her to just get over her problems, which I wasn’t.

Eventually she dresses and I do her hair. That part was really cool. She put in a messy bun and I used this toxic gel stuff to put the ends into spikes which were hazardous to everyone’s health. Wendy said that she looked like the stature of liberty, and I concur.

So finally her mom comes back with a pizza, we eat a few pieces, and then take the rest into the car so we can go. We drive there with like Mapquest directions, and it’s all going pretty okay. Then we get there and grab a place in the line and Wendy’s cousin is behind us but she never says hi. -laughs* We see Ashley G. and talk to her a bit. Wendy also sees some friend from Newman whom Lary obviously hates and whines about. I feel odd because I hate when people see their friends and don’t introduce me.

We get in there and get up pretty close. The first band was kinda nu metalish and I didn’t like them much, but everyone else did. I should mention that because of my height I can’t see anything. )= The crowd isn’t too packed toward the front, but ironically the moshing starts with like the first band and so does the body surfing, neither of which can I stand. The mosh pit would spring up randomly for like 3 minutes then dissipate and appear again someplace else. Had it stayed in one place the whole time I would have been fine with it, but it seemed to start around me, or very close to me every time. Eventually I started shoving and throwing elbows when they fucking hit me.

I really liked the second band and thought they had an awesome sound. They were more hard rock with jazz, rap and pop influences, and they’re British. XD The singer, was hot too. They had the best stage presence in my opinion.

Then Cold comes on and I think I missed it. The guys weren’t very energetic, but the crowd was. As soon as they started the crowd became much tighter as everyone crammed together. Wenny and I were split up from Lary and I kept trying not to lose her in the crowd, but with the pit springing up around us, it was difficult. I couldn’t breathe or move and that’s when it started becoming painful. The energy of the crowd was great, but it was so hard to get into the music. Plus my pants kept falling.

I think when one gets as big as they are, it’s good enough to just be performing and they forget to have energy on stage, but it was good. I think the song selection was kinda sucky, and I would have liked some of their slower ones that I could get into and not die from… Then Sevendust came on and their show was the same as last year’s. It was more about the music and the crowd than them having a good performance. Eventually Wendy and I just pulled out, got a drink, and went more toward the back. That was better because I could see, move,and breathe and that’s when I really got into it with head banging and rock handing. BTW, my neck hates me.

Lary found us and told us to find her near the bathrooms after the show and I was fine with that, but when Sevendust ended they came out to play a few more songs and Lary showed up and was all “OMG I broke a rib.” Wendy and I were a little dubious, to say the least. So apparently whilst we were split up, Lary met a guy, kissed him, moshed, and went crowd surfing. -rme*

So all the way home she’s bitching about this guy named Matt who lives in Wausau and is 20 and she’s determined to go through yearbooks to find his last name and call him, only we all know it will never work.

We stop at county market, and see Mr Lee! He’s all gangsta looking with the backwards hat or something. We talk to him a bit then go in and get soda. But I don’t spend the $5 that I found on the floor at the concert. The cashier was some black guy who kept hitting on Lary in a sweet/creepy way. He said Wendy was 15 and Lary stopped him talking before he guess how old I was. -lmfao* She was all “I broke a rib” and he was “I can take a few minutes off and drive you to the hospital” It was creepy.

We get to Wendy’s and while they take showers, I can’t because I have no clothes and I’m tired anyway so after some cheetoh’s and a dew I fall asleep on the love seat downstairs. Now Wendy’s house is nice. It’s newer but not too huge, and the kind of house I think I’d like when I’m growed up. Lary’s house just made me feel poor, really poor. I judge people by their houses, it’s weird. Ours is so old, and small, and crappy. It’s like 110 years old, I guess.

Anyway, I snored a lot because I was tired and I could tell. We woke up on and off, and I couldn’t stay up until I smelled bacon and we went upstairs and Wendy’s mom had made us bacon and waffles. And earlier in the morning she made us chocolate chip cookies and brought them down while they were still warm with MILK IN A BAG!

So we ate and then Wendy’s sister came over, and she actually introduced me. Then Lary went home, Wendy and I hung out a bit, and then her mom drove me home.

Friday night I went to Holly’s 18th bday party.. Yes, alcohol and all. I didn’t drink much, mellow yellow for me because I’m not a big alcohol drinker.

I wound up being the beer bitch – everytime someone needed to do something I wound up holding their beer. Oh well, life goes on..

Anyway when we got there (Wenny, Dan, Ashe, Heather, and I) some people were already drunk.. Cody was pissed at his girlfriend or something so he slammed half a bottle of rum and wound up passed out half the night. While he was passed out they moved ihm down to the fire and drew on his face. THey being Holly’s brother and her nephew. Her brother is late early 30’s, late 20’s – how mature. -rme*

Erin was drunk too. Everytime he had a new beer it was like “this is beer # i’m so drunk” While I’m sure he was a little tipsy if I walked around saying I was drunk and being stupid eventually people would believe me too.. Any no one just sobers up.. You’re not durnk one minute and sober the next..

So anywya Cody’s girlfriend was really pissed he did that and I can udnerstand and I think their relationship needs some work and I hope to fuck he doesn’t read this blog entry.

So Heather got a bit drunk and kissed me on the cheek and schmidty was all “keep going.” I’m not sure if he was drinking either, but he was just great. Zer was another one who was drinking – she was all “Cole join my dance party in the garage” and she was the only one dancing. -lol*
Isaac showed up and left like 5 minutes later which I thought was rude.. tHey went to another party but MEgan came back because she said it sucked and eventually Katie and Zer came back too.. They had the bonfire all nice and stuff but no marshmallows )=

Well one of the trees started onfire so a bunch of drunk guys tried to fight it and it was hilarious.
At one point we were standing on the patio and Ashe was beant over slightly b/c she was laughing and Elise was walking toward her or something and thye collided. We heard Elise’s nose crack and she got a cut straight across the bridge. I think the bone broke and it was a clean cut. Now Elise is blaming Ashe and we can’t figure out why she was charging at Ashe in the first place.

People took Holly’s mom liquor and like no one said thsnk you so I made sure I did before we left.
Ashe and Dan spent a lot of time talking to eachother b/c they had a lot in common and that was cool. I think it upset Wenny but she didn’t want it to, but I don’t know really..

So then Ashe spent the night and we talked a bit and she’s not feeling the best over some things. I’m really not sure what I can say though. The enxt day Ashe woke me up but I didn’t wanna get up because my throat was killing em and I barely had a voice, but by last night it was better. We played gaames and watched movies and it was fun.

Her mommy came over and met mine; she saw our animals, too. Then Lary called and we set up when she’d come over to work on our paper and she caleld later because she was lost. Then we were talking and working on our paper and the fucking tree fell down because it was in a bucket and not a tree stand; the trunk was too wide to fit. So Lary held the tree while mom sawed off some and we forced it into the stand but it wasn’t standing so we caleld Bill to see if they had any ploywood and they did but that wouldn’t help. We wound up sawing off more of the turnk which made it even worse and decided we needed a new stand because ours sucks. Then Bill brought over an old stand but it didn’t have screws and ours wouldn’t fit so Lary drove mom to shopko and her car was being stupid. -laughs* It was hilarious.. Anyway they got back and we put up the tree and Tom shows up. We finally get it all good and LAry goes home. Tim wakes up after all this and surprisingly we didn’t break anything. However when I was redecorating the tree

I accidently broke one of the icycles I bought for mom last year. Arg.

Anyway today I woke up feeling like this and I can’t breathe. I watched I am Sam and it was so sad. I need ot go finish that paper now.

Well Friday my aunt Debbie came up and she stayed for a little over an hour. I wish she’d stayed longer but it was nice. I don’t see her often and she’s my favourite aunt.

Then Ashe and I went to the library to do our econ and I saw Jake.. I went back to her house and we had fun just talking and playing super nintendo ^_^ If you put whipped cream in soda it gets chunky. Anyway that was nice

Last night I talked to Rian of course, played some yahoo pool and talked to some old friends.. susie, david, shelly, erik.. It’s good to catch up.

Tomorrow I’ll do some homework and such

I have a new to play minesweeper flags
