on sundays i sit here and remember everything.

I hope whenever I read this I'll think back on this particular day. 2/18/08. I never seen my twin cry like that since we were twelve. &theres so many things that have been rushing in my small head since i came home from school. sometimes you don't ever get the chance to understand why stuff happens. but thats life.

this really sucks. i just want to see his face again. thats all i need right now to stop me from being so sad. just 24hrs ago we were singing along to dc's "i'll follow you into the dark" on his guitar. i just want to scream.

Ingrid told me that somewhere inbetween the mountains in a far away place in Mexico an Indian sitting "Indian style" sold it her bracelets. And she gave me two. "just because" and I like it alot. I haven't took them off since she tied them to my wrist. Packing to go to my dads this weekend. &I have to work. bleh bleh bleh. and my birthday is in 3 days. holy boom bang! I loved being sixteen. I'm gonna miss it so dearly. its such a pretty number.

gone for now feels alot like gone for good

I could've died today. I was picked up early from school because I've been sick lately(Just a few headaches and mouth pain) but thats not why I could've died. Well maybe, but I had something else in mind. "Traffics like a pack of dogs". I don't think theres no other way to put it. Mom & I where jamming to some Jack Johnson in the car and she was driving and she made a wrong turn on a one way street. I kinda just sat there and froze because there was a stream of cars heading our way. Believe me, there were plenty of cars honking at us already. I kinda yelled at my mom to keep going because that was the only smart thing to do. I think she was scared too. bleh. Oh and I was sleeping in the back seat of the car because the music was making me sleepy and I was tired of being in the front and my mom pressed the break hard enough to make me roll and hit the bottom where your feet is suppose to be while I was sleeping. Oh my. I'm so glad I'm home. <3

love always,

so,

theirs nothing in the fridge. and i'm hungry. i would rush out of the house at 2:30 in the morning to walk to walmart to get me something to eat but i have no dinero on me and I think my brother locked up his bike. I hate feeling poor. I think I'm going to get away from this old computer.. I watched an interview of the fray (Maybe for the 5th time already?) and Isaac Slade says "well it happened so gradually cause there would be like three people like the crazy fans that were on myspace all day long that would start singing back and that was wierd" ahaha. wow. goodnight.

love always,

triying to write symphonies with a hand that quivers.

So theres this song.."Closer than we are" and Alex, lead singer of the damnwells sings it. &this song kinda owns my heart. You have to believe me, the song is that good. I've been obsessing over it for about what.. maybe 3 months? And recently, so many "damnwell" experiences has happened to me. One experience I've had not too long ago, was when Alex sent me a message thanking me for using an untitled live recording of his solo along with a slideshow of my clips and pictures. http://youtube.com/watch?v=018h-PXSWFE
Anyway, A friend of mine sent me a beautiful studio recording of "closer than we are" that I have used to add on my own myspace page.(I just had to throw that in there)&Its far more breathtaking then the live one I was drooling over. Alex posted a video of him on youtube of him doing a few acoustic sets, and if you take an easy guess, "Closer than we are" were one of them.

kissed my dog and he got drunk

I was looking through my computer files and watched all kinds of videos. Like a few fray ones I taped back in Nov 06 but never posted them on my youtube page.(You could hear my awful singing, and I sound sad) One of isaac telling his waffle story and then started singing his "happiness" solo. &Another one of How to save a life. I have this new version of quicktime(which was given to me) &now I can convert my videos to formats like avi or mpeg4 . Woo! I have a bunch of videos from my augustana show this past Oct, them setting up the stage, the end of boston (&I mean the veryvery end) I remember the security guy was being a jerk, &kept asking me to stop recording. &I pretended I didn't hear him so I kept doing it, and told me if I did it again, I would have to leave the venue. So that whole night I was being watched by a security guard. "Only pictures" as he would say. Here's a clip of stars and boulevards by the one and only Augustana. Take notice of the horrible tech problems they had that night. And Jesus! the wait I had to go through just to hear them start, afterall, it was quite a lovely show. I kinda miss it.


love always,
