I can tell that we are gonna be friends...

This past week has been surprisingly good. I'm sitting at my computer right now (obviously) and I keep hearing the sound of rain falling on my roof and side of the house. Here I think it's raining. Turns out its not and there's still a ton of disgusting show on the ground. Someone kill me. Last Tuesday Danielle and I went to a meeting about the Disney College Program. I really hope we both get in. I can just picture myself living in Florida for a while. My work hours are finally starting to pick back up. THANK GOD! I need the money! haha We The Kings and The Maine are next week. It feels like it's taken forever to get here! And I get the feeling that this week is gonna go by quick because we don't have classes on Thursday. So I get a nice little week off of school. haha The oscars are tonight. I'm watching them with my mom. I never really get to see all the movies that are nominated for the big categories but this year I saw Slumdog Millionaire and it was ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE! I hope it wins everything.

flash before my eyes

so it has recently been brought to my attention that I may have S.A.D. (seasonal affective disorder) which basically means that I get super bummed during the winter months. I did a little research on webmd and I really think I have it. It really sucks. I wish I could live somewhere where it's sunny all year round. Although I wouldn't miss a summer in Chicago. Not for anything. So basically I have to learn to deal with it. Next winter hopefully I'll be in Florida working at the happiest place on earth and loving some sun while Chicago is frozen and depressing. Pray for me. The concert calendar is booking up now I just need to wait for the kick off. March 1st. God it's taking forever to get here! I can't wait to see The Cab for the first time! And to see We The Kings and The Maine again...I'll just feel complete I know it. AIRBORNEEEE! haha that's really all for now. I pray these next two weeks go by quickly.

At lastttttt...

Freaking out.

The end.

I'll do what I want.

the first time i ever wrote a journal for my buzznet i wrote about the grammys and how much it sucked. i remember saying how much of a popularity contest it is and how they aren't really that up to date on the artists they nominate. i mean seriously, Paramore for Best New Artist in 2008 when they've been touring their asses off since 2005? Oh! and Hey There Delilah being nominated when that song was realeased in what like 2004? 2005? Now this year the Jonas Brothers are nominated for Best New Artist and they blew up in when late 2007? So shouldn't they have been nominated in 2008? Does any of this make sense? Anywho. I will be watching this year. But only because of the rumored Blink 182 presenting an award reunion. Which if that happens I will most likely burst into tears and my mom will think I'm a total weirdo.
Lately I've been listening to Hanson and Simple Plan. Two totally different bands in two totally different times. But both having a huge impact on my life. Both have been a huge favorite at one point in my life and both I have never really had the privelege of seeing perform. I mean I saw Simple Plan at Warped Tour 2004 but I was more pre-occupied fighting for my life than actually paying attention to what they were playing. I couldn't name a single song they sang that day. haha So it has now become a personal goal for me this year to see both bands live. I was looking at Hansons myspace and lately they've been doing this 2 mile walk or something along those lines to raise money for shoes to send to people in africa. i hope i got that right. basically they walk around barefoot to raise awarness and get people to donate money for shoes for people in africa. i thought that was really cool. so basically if they ever come to chicago i'm deff. going to do the walk and maybe hopefully bring shoes to donate. if they accept donations. it's so crazy to think that 13 years ago i was 7 years old and obsessing over zac hanson and wanting to marry the guy. it will deffinately be an accomplishment to meet hanson. i hope that dream finally comes true...

well. it's grammy time. pray it wont be more commercial and ridiculous than last year. but we all know that it will.

here's how we do.

So today I saw He's Just Not That Into You. Seriously so cute. Except I hate Scarlett Johanssen. So that was a bummer. The best part of today was wearing flip flops out and driving with my windows rolled down. I hope it stays like this for a while.

Doc there's a hole where something was

I really miss summertime. I really just can't stand winter. My wardrobe isn't fit for winter. I'd rather be in a dress and flip flops. Layering sucks! I've been getting these really brutal headaches lately. Which sucks. I don't know if it's because I'm sleeping too much or too little. Lately I've been obsessing over Christian Bale. haha We watched the movie Equilibrium in my philosophy class the other day and he's in it. WOO sexy mann. haha. They announced more bands for Bamboozle today. SOO excited! Demi Lovato is gonna be there so I'm pumped. I'm really looking forward to No Doubt as well. I remember listening to them when I was in like 1st grade! I made my mom buy me Tragic Kingdom because my older cousin had it and I wanted to be just like her when I was little. There's also a lot of rumors going around about Blink 182. PLEASE LET THEM BE TRUE! I wasn't going to watch the Grammy's but if they're presenting then I have to watch right?! haha Duh. Plus I wanna see if Lil' Wayne takes home all 8 awards. That'd be amazing. I really don't want the Jonas Brothers to win best new artist either. I just don't think they deserve it. Maybe last year they would of been better suited for the award. I just feel like the Grammy's aren't up-to-date with music as they'd like us to believe.

I can't stop listening to the new Fall Out Boy record. It's really starting to grow on me. Can't wait to see them again.

So, one of my friends, I've noticed, is starting to change a bit. I don't know how to handle it. What would you do?

groundhogggg dayyyy

i never understood the way ground hog day works. if he sees his shadow then 6 more weeks of winter correct? if not then only 4 weeks right? ughhh i wish i knew. whatever the rules are i hope we have less winter and spring comes in ohh like MARCH! my life...and i hate to admit this....has been so dull since the new year. i havent' gone to any shows and all i basically do is work, school and sleep. sometimes in that order. they've been cutting lots of hours at work so i've had a lot of days off. which is great for doing my homework but what do i do when the homework runs out? haha Ludo is playing the metro on wednesday and i really wanna go but idk. i dont think i can afford it right now. ughh my next show isn't until march 1st when we the kings and the maine come to poplar grove. thats gonna be so much fun. its a little mini road trip. christina comes home this weekend. a perfect weekend too because im off work all weekend. (and that only happens when hours get cut.) haha otherwise I'm their slave all weekend. so we're going to see He's Just Not That Into You. it looks SO FUNNY! haha and i miss my friend so it'll be good to see her for a while. maybe we'll get some fat burger afterwards. WHO KNOWS! haha
