I'm a 3.0, whatever-happens-happens, just-in-it-for-a-good-time, just-scraping-by kind of a girl.

do you know what love is? love is when you watch someone die.

deleting 67 people from my phone book just now felt great.

seeing The Last House on the Left tonight made me not want to watch scary movies again. also made me realize that my life could be much, MUCH worse; so I should be thankful of where I'm at. any of us can die at any given moment. on different note, I want to see Fighting when it comes out next month. Channing Tatum is hella fineeeee.

staying in for the rest of the night. I have three exams to tackle next week.

keep it E-Z!

I personally like the carbon fiber stilettos. They're just renderings though. My guess is that they won't hit the market.

everyday is a new day with a new beginning

that's like, my new quote man.

off to Minneapolis tonight! I'll be home Friday to finish off the last weekend of this winter break.
just trying to get by at this point and make up for the shitty new year's. make up for sitting at the police station, being at the hospital for three hours, the social worker, the drugs, the needles, the texts and phone calls, the red eyes from crying, the loss of appetite, the corrupt mentality; make up for fucking everything. completely start over, even from what happened this morning.

reverse

erase
start cleannn.

Get me off the internet.

Wed, 10 Dec 2008 22:10:14 GMT

I just deleted my Tumblr, Twitter and dug up my old Xanga from 2003-2004 and deleted that too.
I don't want myself to be on the internet anymore than need be. I'm sticking to LJ, Last.fm & Facebook. I'm losing interest in Last.fm as I write this, but I promise I won't ever delete that.

Fear Before @ The Living Room

Fri, 28 Nov 2008 06:06:13 GMT

I hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving. This day was completely boring and lonely. I'm thankful for seeing Fear Before, twice in one week. Drove out to Mt. Vernon, IL yesterday which took five hrs during the day, but only four on the way back. 600 miles worth of a relaxing drive. This brings me to my 8th time seeing them and it'll never be enough.

set list:
Review Our Lives (Epic)
Fear Before Doesn't Listen To People Who Don't Like Them
Given To Dreams
The State of Texas vs Fear Before
Mouth
I'm Fine Today
High As A Horse
The Waiting Makes Me Curious
Should Have Stayed in the Shallows
Stay Weird
Get Your Life Together

I forgot the order as well, but they started & ended with the same songs as in Chicago. I was so excited to hear "I'm Fine Today." Oh, and Rob of HHLL did his guest vocals on "Get Your Life Together" which was sweet.
I met Nathan there after seeing his LJ post in the Fear Before community and ironically enough I'm friends with him on lastfm. I left shortly after their set and he complained that I didn't let him say bye to me, ha. :/ I've met so many people off lastfm that it's getting ridiculous.

I'm also thankful for:
meeting a ton of lovely people, mostly dudes, this year
M83
Tumblr for inspiration
my ipod, as always.
my trusty sidekick (for emails on the go mostly)
the current weather
& that's probably it.

Fear Before @ Subterranean

Tue, 25 Nov 2008 05:32:57 GMT

set list:
Review Our Lives (Epic)
Tycho
Given to Dreams
Drowning the Old Hag

(then I forgot what order they played the rest)

Mouth
The State of Texas vs Fear Before
High As A Horse
Should Have Stayed in the Shallows
Stay Weird
Get Your Life Together

I'm not really sure if they finished with Stay Weird or not, which bugs me.
I have the worst fucking short term memory ever.

The show ended at 9:45! OMG. Last time I saw them at the Beat Kitchen in Sept they ended I think at 9:30 or so. I don't understand these hella early shows anymore.
At least this time it was a lotttt funner.

five years, 506th entry.

this has to be pretty epic.
five years

from high school to college, to more college, and then some.

They don't teach you street smarts in college...

Lia Halloran shoots MIAMI.
the dumb bitch that was born in Chi and has no sets shot in Chicago :/

I was about to throw away my assignment notebook when I decided to look through it for any important dates.

THE SEMESTER ENDS IN A MONTH FROM WEDNESDAY! AHHH! This is awesome.
One more month of this crap and then a week of finals and it's all over. Another chance to start over.

Hell yeah. Fuck you college.

Sun, 12 Oct 2008 00:40:01 GMT

I think the twenty minute phone conversation I had today with him (not Alex) made me realize to just leave things as they are. I need to act my age for once and not some 25 year old. I shouldn't be thinking too deep about the things I do and just focus on what's current. I'm going to take this one semester at a time.

i need these in my life!

Tue, 23 Sep 2008 13:47:56 GMT

hello autumn!

I'm such a bum. My bed is srsly my home. Listened to Owl City all last night while on AIM. Thank god people were calling me because it woke me up haha. I planned on starting my paper at midnight, but that I ended up waking up at 5am this morning. Oh, yeah, and it's still not done.

I get distracted when it comes to doing hw on the computer so bad. This morning I reassured myself I'll work for the fed. How random when I'm supposed to be writing a paper.

Let me sleep through the week because I live for the wkends.

Fear Before

Fri, 19 Sep 2008 23:43:44 GMT

Woke up from my nap, that I feel like going back to since I don't wanna do hw before I go out tonight.

YESTERDAY WAS SOOOO AWESOME!! HAHAH. Okay, so I was on the guest list to see Fear Before [name change!] and I got there tooo early haha. I had to sit through two horrrrrible openers. Damiera were good though. Nice, interesting style. So yeah, they played a few old songs, a few TAOM songs, some new songs. Yeah. It was great. I was right next to the stage since it was at the Beat Kitchen. I mean, hell yeah I'm gunna be hella close to see my fav band. So they did their thing and it was ~awesomeeee. I looked up at Adam while he was singing and he looked down at me, and I turned my head right away cause he was looking me in the eye. I felt weird. Wow, not much to say about their show. Dave did some stances like dance around pretending he was a plane. That had to be my fav. After that, I yelled at Trey (their Tour Manager) and I'm like duuuude give me their set list! Hahaha, cause I couldn't reach it! LOl. So I copped that shit and left the venue.

Oh yeah, before I left I went to Fear Before's merch table and I asked their merch guy what his name was, turned out to be Jacob, because I hadn't seen him before and I'm use to seeing Dylan. (DYLAN DO YOU SEE THIS?! COME TO FUCKING CHICAGO! & UPDATE YOUR LJ MORE OFTEN HAHA) So anyway, I was confused cause I expected his name to be Mike cause of the contact I was given. I text the contact "which mike is this?" and he replied madruga. & I was thinking like "oh, shit. I have their bassist's number." Then I asked him about his tattoo that I couldn't make out during the show and apparently they're the gonzo bats from Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (great movie!). He was all like "why didn't you say hi?" and I had to explain to him that I was hella shy haha. But like, I've talked to him before so whatever. Next time though. NEXT TIME, when I preorder their album I'm gunna make them all sign it like they did with my TAOM one. Cept this time there's no Billy. I didn't feel like spending the money last night to pick it up. Oh! & they're touring with These Arms Are Snakes in Jan according to what Aidan found out from their merch dude. Sweeet.

Tue, 22 Jul 2008 02:20:37 GMT

On the rare occasion that I go to shows anymore, it took going to one again to remind me what I'm living life for.

I'm the biggest bitch on the block

Wed, 16 Jul 2008 15:30:26 GMT

"You made me almost fucking cry about 3 times tonight and made me feel like a fool!"

I've got a huge smile on my face that I can't hide. It's so much fun how badly I can get to you. I hoped you've learned to toughen up.

Sun, 25 May 2008 15:43:09 GMT

I guess when a person is with you they're only with you when they're with you, but when they're gone, when they're really gone.. they're with you forever.
