IT'S MY BIRTHDAY!

So I have been totally swamped with schoolwork lately. I don't do shit anymore, because I have no time. Basically, I cannot wait until April rolls around. I'm hoping and praying for some good karma. These last two months have been pretty shitty at times, and I just hope I get rewarded for sticking it out with a great month of April...my 19th birthday, Brand New, +44, a possible trip out West again, and Say Anything/SavestheDay in early May. I need to drive to Gainesville asap and check out this house a very good friend of mine is buying for the fall thats right near the UF campus. It's a 4bed/4bath, and she already asked me if I wanted to live there, so at least I have more than one option now....plus, I think it's smarter to live with her then live with my friends Kevin and Kirk from Satellite Beach...I would most likely fail out of school if I chose that house haha

soooo it's not like my dad who i haven't seen in over 13 years are twins or anything............

california is the fucking shit and i dont wanna leave.

:]

2006-12-03T16:18:16Z

last night was the most fun i've had in forever. harloe/angels and airwaves @ plush. tom delonge's autograph tattooed on my left hip haha. i still can't believe i actually got it. he's probably the nicest guy in the world.

wake forest won.
gators won.

flying to california in t-minus 13 days.
life's gooood.

...someone just kidnap me please so i can stay in jacksonville. i don't wanna go back to melbourne tonight =/

nobody said it was easy.

2006-11-25T02:55:04Z

i just have to say to anyone who is growing tired of this city..or thinks it's 'lame', or 'the most shitty town in the world', i think you should be taken away for a minimum of three months, with no option to return or with no time whatsoever to come back for a weekend to visit, and see how much that will change your outlook. i have not been home since august 19, and it really is an eye-opener of how much i took for granted. not only my family, friends, and pets, but this beautiful city in general.
over these last few months, i have been so homesick at times, i didn't think i would make it through my first semester of college. but i stuck through it, and managed to. it was really difficult though, i'm not gonna lie. but i seriously am so happy to be back home for thanksgiving. everything is perfect. i love my family so much. and my home. and jacksonville. and the weather is amazing. life is beautiful<3

one complaint i have is: NOT ENOUGH TIME!!! i seriously have the longest list of people to see and spend time with, but i know for a fact i wont get to 75% of them because i leave sunday, and i only have two days left=[ but i promise to everyone that Christmas break will be the time when i visit with alll my friends!

so far, break has been awesome. wednesday night was fun at fuel. saw a lot of friends, harloe played amazing. thanksgiving i gained 10lbs, but whatever. today spent the whole day with my mom. tomorrow, shopshopshop, then boat parade at the landing with my loves, then beach to hangout with my boys!! =]

things are different now. but change is a constant and my life is in God's hands so I know I am taken care of. ever since the end of july my life has been a rollercoaster. i've lost people who i need most in my life right now, but i have no control over their decisions. so, i'm stuck just wondering if a friendship will ever be rekindled..

wtf is wrong with me?

last night was the second best night i've had down here.
it's pretty obvious when i miss the OC, just because i'm having
too much fun @ john's. anyways, i stayed up for half the night
with kevin, tommy, and their best friend kirk who is in town from UF.
Next school year, I want to move in with all of them in a house in
Gainesville...I think my life would be set haha

I still haven't seen Saw III, and my poor lungs are gonna collapse
before i turn 19 i swear. someone change my horrible smoking addiction please.

ANGELS AND AIRWAVES PLAY PLUSH THIS DECEMBER 2ND.
I HAVE NO WORDS RUNNING AROUND IN MY
LITTLE HUNGOVER HEAD THAT MEAN ENOUGH TO EXPLAIN MY HAPPPINESS ABOUT THIS.
GOOD KARMA IS STARTING TO WORK IN MY FAVOR;
FINALLYYYYYYY.

i need sleeeep

2006-10-30T15:17:52Z

the WEATHER outside
frank sinatra
cinematic sunrise
chiodos
craig owens in general
powernaps
sonic for breakfast lunch&dinner.

i want it though because the new winter jackets are to fucking die for.

i have all day off tomorrow so im contemplating drving up to jax for the day and coming back

and angies subs, but i dont wanna drive 3 hours.

life is great. weather's starting to change a tad. cold weather=ME IN HEAVEN! ugh, i hate the florida heat so much. and i cannot wait to go fall shopping!! jeeeans, boots and sweaters!
this new outkast song called the mighty o is the shit. im so jealous of alex--he's getting his halfsleeve done this weekend @ the tattoo convention. i wish i could be there!
i'm getting more added on to my crown in the next month or so. my friend kevin who i met @ school is hooking me up hardcore money-wise because
he parents own a tattoo shop in cocoa. he told me i can get it for no charge. im fuckin lucky.

i have a new addiction: skittles. only the ones in the purple bag though.
and i;m a fat ass to the max. idk why, but i eat so freaking much down here. constantly. but whatever. i;m young and i can work it off.
but seriously, when i come back to jax for thanksgiving, i know my friends are gonna notice a change haha..my tummy is bulging.

the black dahlia was an amazing movie. sooo freaking suspenseful andddd josh hartnett....do i even have to continue? ha
i feel like i have made 15 new best friends with the girls on my team. each and every one of them is like a sister to me. and i love that feeling.
i can trust every single one of them and talk to them about ANYTHING, and i've known them for only 1 month. lifelong friendships for sureeee.
i love my girls so much and i'm so thankful i met them all. there all so amazingly talented and are gonna be so successful in life. i cant to see
where all of us do with our lives.

anyways, i officially have three stalkers at my school. one is a black jamacian dude, one is a white guy who works at this italian restaurant im obsessed with which sucks because im not gonna stop goign there and he thinks i go in there just to see him ha, and the last is a white guy who thinks hes black and is obsessed with bob marley. needless to say, its funny. sometimes creeepy, but still funny.

i found a place that is IDENTICAL to thee imperial! and its right down the street from my apartment. i was soo excited. and all the kids are soooo nice. its called JC's and mainly just local bands play. its weird too because after shows, most the kids go to sonic which is practically next door to JC's and it feels like im back home aagain because god knows my addiction to sonic haha.

the baseball team did amazing over the weekend. i feel such at home with the team...its always been easier for me to hangout with guys over girls and that has not changed. i have such a great time just going over ryan grant's apt every night and watching football or playing beer pong or doing something crazy with them. they all welcomed me so fast and im so glad they did.

im really looking forward to this fall&winter. fftl/chiodos/etid coming up october 15!
say anything/mewithoutyou/piebald soon too!
and of course brand new&dashboard in november! and cartel/nfg!!!!

and the BEST----CALIFORNIA with my sister december 16-24! we're starting to plan out the week and so far, we have a roadtrip to san franciso & napa valley and a two or three day stay in LOS ANGELESSSS!! and venice beach! i can;t even think about it or else my heart starts racing.

welllll, my last class got cancelled today sooo that completely made my day. but im gonna take a nap then i have practice @ 4:30 soooo peace out.

-[you're what keeps me believing this world's not gone dead.]-

yep.

2006-09-19T04:43:43Z

everyone needs to go out and buy the new new found glory cd tomorrrow. it's amazing.
i finally have internet at my apt. about damn time.
fuck yes to the jaguars shutting out the fucking superbowl champions =D

tommy and i talked tonight and i love the way we are right now.
i've changed so much as a person the last month or so.

im happy with the person i have become. and my views. sometimes i get tired of school, and softball, or only getting 4 hours
of sleep max each fuckin night--but then i think about my future, and the amazing, lifelong friends i've made down here, and i start
thinking positive again.

lately i've been on a cartel and brand new binge.
and i'm a fucking fat ass to the max. i eat too much for a college student.

i hope these two years flyyyy by

2006-09-04T00:10:53Z

i've been in jax since last night. i went straight to thee imperial to see the dahmer anatomy, and i surprised alex=]
last night was weird, but fun as shit. i love this feeling of having nothing to do. it's rare nowadays, so im enjoying it. i've been lazy all day and i havent felt one ounce of guilt about it because i know once i go back tomorrow night, i wont be back until thanksgiving, and until then its constant on-the-go-with-barely-any-sleep-ever. but life is good. bcc is great. ive met some really cool friends in melbourne already. i cant wait until nfg and cartel in november. im in the mood to smoke. i want another tattoo. for once, i feel so carefree about like. i could stay like this forever.

i'm back in Jacksonville for the weekend. i'm a loser and fell asleep on Alex last night [the only night he's expecting to go out], so if you read this Alex, i'm SORRY! and you should hate me =[
but i'm gonna see you before i leave to go back tomorrow afternoon--no questions asked!

after this is little trip back to jax, i won't be back home until literally Thanksgiving.....aka i expect tonight to be better than any night i've ever spent in Jville.

plan [as of now] includes:
an exciting day of shopping @ the townscenter with my mom.
Altell tonight for the JAGS vs. TAMPA BAY game w/ my sister!!!
The Pearl afterwards with friendsssss.
then most likely out to the beach to visit the love of my life, LUKE! i never got a chance to say goodbye to him, so i wanna visit and see how he's been doing.

oh yeah--and sometime in between those things, i gotta surprise alex!

right now im about to fall over in my chair, so im gonna nap till 1:15 then driving to Palm Bay for my first softball meeting to meet all the girls.

hope all is well in jacksonville.

tonight went from horrible to amazing. thanks to one person who most likely doesn't even realize it. i leave jacksonville in about 24 hours...how lucky can i get? i meet someone who could easily potentially be an amazing part of my life FOUR days before i leave for college. seriously..God hates me.
