Listening to: When I'm With You by Simple Plan
What I Should Be Doing: Showering.
I'm Also: TRYING DESPERATELY TO PLAN TO GO TO HCT IN A CITY AN HOUR AWAY, checking Facebook, and surfing songsmeaning.net
Parents out of town + waking up at like 1 PM + IHOP + driving by a bridge 3 times to see if the guys standing next to it were in This Providence + playing tic tac toe on a water bottle while Reign of Kindo played + discovering The Higher + seeing and meeting This Providence + "You're shoes are filled with goodness" = amazingly awesome day. =)
This happened back in November, by the way. xD
Sorry.
It's oh-so-possible I may get to see Motion City Soundtrack after all. AND THAT'D BE SO FLIPPING AWESOME.
I love you, Anna's parents. SERIOUSLY.
I actually finished my homework before 8 today! THAT'S LIKE A HUGE ACCOMPLISHMENT!!
I'm finished.
I'm trying not to over use smileys, 'cause I do that SOOO much. Like every other sentence. I'm addicted! *sobsob*

I’m So Tired of Days That Feel Like the Night
Listening to: Love Song by Sara Bareilles [that's hard to spell.]
What I Should Be Doing: Nothing, really.
I'm Also: Chewing gum, reading Sims 2 stories, playing Solitaire, wishing I had more acoustic songs, and moping.
Today kind of sucked for the most part, and now my stomach's bothering me.
Maybe it's the gum... I'm also like crazy tired for some reason, and my head hurts.
We had a talent show today. We were required to go, but I didn't mind 'cause I thought it'd be neat. Unfortunately, every act wasn't really that neat. Actually, it's more just that there was at least one thing wrong with each. [One of them couldn't sing, they messed up the lyrics, the drums were too loud, etc.] I'm kind of ashamed of how talentless our school is, especially since there really weren't very many acts.
Ah well.
I checked out Everybody Hurts from the school library [though I have NO idea why they even had it...?], so that was good.
Uh. Bleh.
This Providence = love.

The Biggest Thing I've Ever Lost Was My Guitar
Listening to: On Again/Off Again by Riverboat Gamblers
What I Should Be Doing: Filling out my History QQS, rewriting my History timed writing, reading Macbeth for English, working on Chem review questions
I'm Also: Rating all my unrated music on iTunes [I'm OCD about that. xD]
I forgot to turn iTunes off shuffle, so I'm getting a-mazing songs like Unexpected Places by The Academy Is... and Be Aggressive by Powerspace. Not that the songs I haven't rated aren't amazing, 'cause they are. =) Mostly.
I love commas and semi-colons and apostrophes and I'm kind of a grammar freak. It's sad.
It always makes me happy to meet people that like Motion City Soundtrack, Powerspace, The Higher, This Providence, or The Format. I know very very few people that like them. I know one person that might like MCS, two people that like Powerspace 'cause I introduced them to The Kicks of Passion, and no one that likes The Higher, This Prov, or The Format. Even though I only know like nine songs by The Format.
My iTunes has to be sorted by artist, or I get annoyed. All the songs have to be rated. Every song has to have album art, whether that's something I threw together or the actual CD cover. Every song has to have an album and genre, even if that means I make them up. All my songs have to be properly capitalized. All my non-country songs have to be on my Other playlist, and all my non-other songs have to be on my country playlist. Simple Plan is the only exception, and they don't belong on any playlist, because I always skip their songs anyway. On-The-Go playlists can't exist.
There can't be more than four Internet Explorer windows open at one time, though I tend to have at least four tabs open in one. I hate even numbers, because there's no middle number. People must wash their hands before touching my laptop. Sticky things make me angry. My CDs and games must stay in their case, unless they're being used. I will never ever flush a CD to clean it, though I will use toothpaste to fix the scratches. My room can't be too warm. Juicyfruit is for blowing bubbles and snapping gum, and Stride is just for chewing. My CDs must be ordered chronologically by when I bought/received them. Spelling, punctuation, and grammar are important, even on the internet. My toenails can only get so long. I use earbuds to listen to music at school/on the airplane, but I use old clunky headphones that cover my ears at home. All of my headphones, USB cords, cameras, chargers, and Gameboys belong in the red basket on top of the unplugged stereo next to my bed. Sharpies belong in the mug with the pencils that have run out of lead. I only talk to Allie about family issues, and I don't know why. The flash is almost always off on my camera. My black school tie must be returned to the same pocket as my iPod when I take it off. I don't throw anything away, instead giving everything a specific place in my room and keeping it there. Peeling things must be taped over.
You'd think that I'd be like really organized. xD
I'm REALLY REALLY not. =)
I really like my copy of the periodic table of elements for some reason.

Australia is Full of Awesome
Listening to: ...But What Will They Say? by This Providence
What I Should Be Doing: Studying for my English test, my Latin test, my Chem test, my WHAP inner/outer circle, and sleeping
I'm Also: Talking to my friends [actually, I'm watching them talk about the poems on the English test and not contributing] and wishing my tummy wasn't bothering me and charing my iPod
I miss Lindsey and Lauren.
This week sucked.
Tomorrow's gonna be worse. =) 3 tests and an inner/outer circle and a filming assignment.

Sacrifice the Virgin Gummy Bear to the Potassium Chlorate God. NOW.
Listening to: I'm Like a Lawyer with the Way I'm Always Trying to Get You Off [Me + You] by Fall Out Boy
What I Should Be Doing: Reading poems for English/working on my write up/sleeping
I'm Also: Playing The Sims 2 and updating on Facebook and talking to Allie =)
I adore Infinity on High. Seriously. Like, minus The Carpal Tunnel of Love and This Ain't a Scene [I way overplayed those tracks way back in February before the album even came out.] I wish FOB was as crazy awesome as This Providence and Powerspace and came to my city...
I'm tired.
I tried going to bed at like 10:30, but I couldn't sleep till 11:45. So I dunno.
My friend Vedanti owes Allie a box of Jesus cookies and Allie said she'd share. =)
So I'm hoping she'll bring them tomorrow so we can like inhale them before fitness. xD
Fitness = waste of life.
Fitness = mean.
Fitness = makes me stay at school till 5.
I love how I used to have more to say here, but truthfully, not all that much has been going on.
'Cept my dream... But I've forgotten a ton of it.
So.
Adios!

"What's with the Permanent Addition of the Creepy Old Guy?"
Listening to: Histrionics by The Higher
What I Should Be Doing: Writing a claim for the question 'In this poem, the Green Knight is the evil figure with the ultimately good heart. Are there any evil figures in today's society that ultimately have good hearts?"
I'm Also: Reading fanfiction because I'm a loser =), talking to my crazy amazing friends, saving a video, and playing Solitaire
I'm totally obsessed with Histrionics. Not even kidding. xD
I was happier last year, but this year's been good in its own way too. I mean, I've had fun with my friends and at concerts, and there've been little things that have just been awesome, but ... I find myself randomly moping more this year. Like, the day after the This Providence concert, when my parents came home, I was all "Nothappydon'ttalktome" and moping and just feeling sad. And I don't know why. =( I don't like it.
Sometimes people just make me smile. Whether I particulary like them or not.
My legs were sore from fitness today, but I swear we've done nothing but "active stretching." [Active stretching = stupid.]
FUZZYMAN,IWISHYOU'DCOVERBINGOFORME.I'DLOVEYOUFOREVERANDNEVERBOTHERYOUEVERAGAIN.HAPPYBIRTHDAY.
Cab drivers scare me.
Maybe I'll tell my a-mazing experience with terrifying cab drivers in a vid someday.
SCARY CAB RIDES + BANANAS AT 4 AM = NIGHTMARES.
Wow, that was off topic.
Not that there ever is a topic. xD
My - I was going to say my hair smells like shampoo.
Well, considering I showered like an hour ago, I think that makes sense.
Wow. I need to concentrate. :)
This week's going to take forever. I can just about promise that. xP

Your Pajamas Make Me Sleepy
Listening to: Nothing
What I Should Be Doing: Sleeping =)
Okay, so today was awesome. xD
I woke up around 12:45 and Manola and I hung out for a little bit before going to IHOP for "breakfast." Afterward we drove around for a while, looking at venues to see if tour buses were there yet, and then we went to a huge parking lot and I got to drive for a while. xD We came home around 3, I showered ['cause I'd gone to "breakfast" in my pajamas] and we decided that we were going to see Fred Claus at 4:40. We went and saw it [it was a pretty good movie] and then decided to drive around to see if This Providence and the bands they were touring with were at the venue they were playing yet.
We drove by a bridge THREE times just so I could see if the two guys leaning against it were in the band or not [I'm still not sure if they were or not. =)] because I'm indecisive and didn't want to ask them. Then we decided we might as well just go watch them play and talk to them afterward, so Manola went home really fast and put jeans on ['cause she was still in like pajamas. xD]. She also grabbed a Sharpie, because we wanted them to sign stuff. xP
We go, pay the $12 each to get in, get the 'underage' wrist bands, buy a This Providence T-shirt, and go stand with a bunch of other people to watch the first band play. It's already almost 8 and the show started at 7, so I don't know why the band hadn't already started, but either way, we watched The Reign of Kindo, who were pretty good. [We kind of played tic tac toe on the water bottle I bought instead of paying much attention though.] I hadn't heard any of their songs before, but we ended up buying their EP. Then The Higher came on, and they were amazing, even though I only knew Insurance?. I was impressed and we ended up buying their CD, too. =D
When This Providence came on, we actually got to move closer to the stage, but they took FOREVER to set up. Still, they were AMAZING. I forgot a lot of the words, but they were still so awesome live. =) I was really really sweaty and my feet hurt and I kind of had a headache, but I was REALLY happy. Plus, I had My Beautiful Rescue stuck in my head. xD
That's when we went and bought the CD and EP, and got Seth from The Higher to sign the CD booklet thingy [y'know, the thing with the lyrics?]. We also got a free poster from The Reign of Kindo. =) Then, I went and got all of the members of This Providence to sign my shoes AND my shirt. xD That just about made my life. I mean, my shoes now have seven amazing signatures from seven amazing people AND I have an amazing band T-shirt with five amazing signatures. xD Yeah, I'm a loser.
Anyway, they were all really nice about it, even though I had NO idea what any of their names were [and felt AWFUL about it]. I walked around with my shoes in my hands and now my socks are disgustingly dirty. I shouldn't have worn white ones. xD Since my shoes are kinda filled up with writing and drawings and crud, it was kinda hard for them to find places to write. David said my shoes were "filled with goodness." Dan just said something about space being limited. xD Sean signed my shoelace. That and the "filled with goodness" comment seriously made me happy. xD Gavin seemed kind of annoyed, or maybe just indifferent, and Andy was nice about it, but didn't really say anything more than agreeing to sign both things. Still. The whole thing just made my life. Especially since I wasn't even going to go to the concert in the first place.
Unfortunately, I forgot my camera [since I wasn't sure if we were actually gonna go or not] so I don't have any pictures... :( But it's okay, 'cause I still had an awesome time. Even though I forgot the words and leaned against a patch of gum that was stuck to the wall. xD
I really like that they walked around after the show so that their fans got to meet/talk with them. [I mean, I guess they have to do that to make a good impression or whatever, but still.] After The Academy Is... didn't come out, I was kinda worried that I wouldn't get to meet ANYBODY. But everybody from This Providence was hanging out with people and taking pictures and signing things. I like that a lot more. =)
Daphne Loves Derby started playing during all of this, but neither of us really knew who they were and I was tired and Manola was sick, so we just left. We went to Whataburger for dinner and watched parts of movies until I was sure that I was gonna fall asleep on the couch upstairs, so I decided to go to bed. And that's when I came down here, put pajamas on, and decided to update my blog instead of going to sleep. xD

AT&T Sucks and Andy is Jesus
Listening to: Sleep, Everyone by Powerspace
What I Should Be Doing: Writing Inner/Outer circle questions for World History AP
I love Powerspace. Like times a million.
I almost went to a Motion City Soundtrack today. But my mom said nooo. So wah. She also said no to Fall Out Boy, Powerspace, and This Providence. Yeah. Sucks. FOB was yesterday, Powerspace woulda been this Sunday, and This Providence woulda been like two weeks from now. I'm sad. =(
I'm mad, 'cause my Digital Video teacher made us all get external harddrives, but she didn't give us ANY requirements/expectations, so my step-dad and I just guessed when we bought one [it was $130 and one of the cheapest ones.] And she's all "No, it doesn't work; get a new one." She finally gave me like 2 actual requirements, but that's it.
Okay, the three weeks after October 2 just freaking SUCKED. I've been having a pretty good week this week though. Hopefully, it'll stay good. I think it's good 'cause it's finally getting colder. =)
I'm tired and I don't think I'm gonna go trick or treating for Halloween, which makes me really sad. I wanna go, but it wouldn't be fun by myself...
I'm going to my dad's this weekend and then my friend's staying with me for like 2 weekends in a row. xD Whoo, man. Naw, I'm actually happy about that. =D
My Sherwood CD and my Farewell CD come in tomorrow. =) So happy... I just have to go pick 'em up and I'll be happy for like a week. xD The CD store always makes my day/week better. Like, I hadn't gone in almost a month and then I went on Monday and I was just like "I had/am having a really good day." Was fun. :D Then my friend and I scootered around the intersection by my house for like an hour. *giggles*
Anyway. I should go work on the Inner/Outer circle crud.

The Poor Groom's Bride Is A RYAN!
Listening to: Is There No Truth in Beauty? by Just Surrender
I have yet to find a blog just rambling about life. Every blog I see has a purpose. What's the fun in that? =P I actually like to read about other people's lives... Ah well.
I bought the self-titled album from This Providence today. I'm glad I did. I like it a lot... I've only listened to it through once so I don't really have favorites right now, but I especially like My Beautiful Rescue and A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing. I adore Card House Dreamer, but I had the song before I decided I wanted the CD, so I'm not counting it. :) I would really like to see This Providence live sometime... Tour, please! You, too, Powerspace and The Used and Motion City Soundtrack!
Anyway. Hunter and I made like a bazillion awesome sped up lip synching videos tonight. It was fun. Technically, this is Saturday, so it was yesterday, but I really don't care that much. =D Then we went upstairs and I sang [a.k.a. screamed songs I knew] for my parents. My throat officially hurts. There's only so many times that you can scream-sing I Write Sins Not Tragedies at the top of your lungs before you feel like passing out. I have to say though, screamo Bingo's WAAAY harder.
Today in Digital Video, I showed the footage I got for my partner's 30 second introduction video in class, and when your footage's projected on this huge screen, you tend to think it's like awful. At least I do. Same deal when I had to show my photographs on the projector for a class I took through some random college in 8th grade. Anyway. My partner was basically rocking out in her car and dancing and lip synching. There's more, but it's kinda complicated. For my vid, a bird poops on my shoulder and then I slip and roll down a hill by accident. :D Yup.
I'm writing way too much, so I'm gonna shut up now. =)
I have yet to find a blog just rambling about life. Every blog I see has a purpose. What's the fun in that? =P I actually like to read about other people's lives... Ah well.
I bought the self-titled album from This Providence today. I'm glad I did. I like it a lot... I've only listened to it through once so I don't really have favorites right now, but I especially like My Beautiful Rescue and A Wolf in Sheep's Clothing. I adore Card House Dreamer, but I had the song before I decided I wanted the CD, so I'm not counting it. :) I would really like to see This Providence live sometime... Tour, please! You, too, Powerspace and The Used and Motion City Soundtrack!
Anyway. Hunter and I made like a bazillion awesome sped up lip synching videos tonight. It was fun. Technically, this is Saturday, so it was yesterday, but I really don't care that much. =D Then we went upstairs and I sang [a.k.a. screamed songs I knew] for my parents. My throat officially hurts. There's only so many times that you can scream-sing I Write Sins Not Tragedies at the top of your lungs before you feel like passing out. I have to say though, screamo Bingo's WAAAY harder.
Today in Digital Video, I showed the footage I got for my partner's 30 second introduction video in class, and when your footage's projected on this huge screen, you tend to think it's like awful. At least I do. Same deal when I had to show my photographs on the projector for a class I took through some random college in 8th grade. Anyway. My partner was basically rocking out in her car and dancing and lip synching. There's more, but it's kinda complicated. For my vid, a bird poops on my shoulder and then I slip and roll down a hill by accident. :D Yup.

McDonalds Gets Old Fast
Listening to: Slow Down by The Academy Is...
I know I should be excited for the The Academy Is... concert, which is in almost exactly a month, especially since I've been listening to a lot of TAI's music recently, but instead, I'm in an awful mood, 'cause I really want to go see Fall Out Boy again, but the closest concert to us is an hour away and on a Tuesday. Which is not cool. At all. Especially since my parents would let me go if I wouldn't miss school. So I've been trying to convince them that missing like two days really isn't that big a deal, but they don't listen to me very much at all. So I'm really not happy right now. I know that sounds selfish, but they won't even give me a good reason besides "you can't miss school" and then they don't even tell me why I can't miss school. Ugh. And then my mom threatened to not let me go to the TAI concert, so I'm in a really bad mood now.
Happy Labor Day.
We went to my grandparents' lake house this weekend and went tubing. My hand kept rubbing against the handles and I have like four places where I've rubbed the top few layers of my skin off. Well, kind of. xP It hurts pretty badly. I'm supposed to keep it moist and keep bandaids on it, but I'm in too bad a mood to care at the moment.
Yeah. I still have to finish a book for English tonight, so I should probably get off the computer and read, but I reaaaaaaaaaally don't want to. I also need to do like two more problems for Chemistry... I need to staple stuff into my AP World History spiral too, but I don't want to go get the stapler again. Homework's the main reason I haven't posted anything here in like a week. That and just stress. I've had a pretty awful first week.
I need to go pick up/buy This Providence by This Providence from the CD store, 'cause it came in on Thursday. I just haven't had time. I was going to go today, but I wasn't sure it would be open. I hope I have time tomorrow.
I really don't think this year's gonna be fun at ALL. It's started out badly and it just keeps getting worse. *throws sarcastic confetti*
Sorry. I'm in a reaaaally bad mood right now. I haven't said that yet, have I? I'm sure you didn't notice. =P
I think I had something else to say here. Well, I've forgotten it, my feet are cold, and my hands hurt. Oh. I have to bring my camera tomorrow for Digital Video and shoot some scenes for our first project, which REALLY stinks. I don't want to do it at all. I'm like dreading it. I'm afraid I'll mess up or do something wrong or something stupid. Well, it's not like she really taught us how to do anything.

I Don't Roll In Sketchy Areas
Listening to: Of All We've Known by Just Surrender
I went down to the CD store with my friend and my brother to pick up/buy If These Streets Could Talk, and they had the Powerspace CD too, so I got 'em both. =) The This Providence CD will be in Thurdsay, so if I can get enough money together, I'll go back down and buy that one. xD
I started school today, too. Most of my classes kind of stink. Not that school's that fun. But usually I have better classes/like my classes more. I hate having my free period third... =( Oh well. Today just felt like a million years. It took forever. But I'm like the only one that felt like that. Funny.
Anyways. I have a TON of homework to do... Algebra 2 problems, reading for World History, reading for Chemistry, reading for Survey of Brit. Lit.... It'll be interesting. Heh. =)
Oh, and I'm starting horseback riding again this Thursday... So that'll be good. Though I'm really lazy. xD And it's like 90 degrees out every day. And it's so ENORMOUSLY humid. Heh.

Eating Four Chicken Nuggets Takes Me Like Two Minutes
Listening to: my fan moving the plastic bag on my bed.
I post on this too much. Anyway. I realized I was broke last night and complained to my parents, who gave me the job of picking up dog poop in the backyard for $30. Fortunately, I didn't end up doing that. xP My sister's having a 'back to school' party/barbecue tonight and our house was like insanely dirty, so I decided to help my mom for cash. Which is kinda neat, 'cause I woulda helped even if she didn't pay me. Even though she hasn't yet.
Anyway. I just cleaned off the lawn chairs, helped set up the tables and tablecloths, cleaned the windows/doors, blew up balloons and tied strings to them for a game, helped set up a few games, swept the patio, put the beer, soda, and water into coolers, lit the candles, and set out the food. It took like 3 hours to do all that, but that's okay. xD Her party starts in like five minutes. =P
I took a "lunch break" with my brother and walked down to the CD store near my house and guess what! They didn't have any of the CDs, either, but they're gonna have the Powerspace CD and the This Providence CD in on Monday after 4, so I'm pretty happy. I also ordered the old Just Surrender CD, If These Streets Could Talk and I'm excited. :D I have to go pick it up/pay for it after 4 on Monday, but hey, that's cool. I can get all 3 CDs then if I want. *dance* Then we went to McDonalds and ate lunch. xD
So today was pretty amazing, even though it's like 100 degrees outside with the humidity and I didn't actually buy any of my CDs and I worked for like 3 hours outside in the heat. But hey. I'm pretty dang happy.
For the next few hours, I'm gonna hide in my room while the kids are running around the house. :D And maybe sneak for some food, 'cause I'm hungry. xP
My friends and I are having a 'back-to-school' party tomorrow and we're making T-shirts, which is gonna be awesome. Iron-on transfer junk, I think. It'll be cool. =)

Borders Hates Me
Listening to: Hey Brittany by Forever the Sickest Kids
Okay, so we went to eat dinner at a restaurant close to Borders. And I beg my parents to let me go over after I finish my food so they let me and my step-brother go basically across the street. Anyways. I go into Borders and I see two people I really dislike in there. And my brother sees the same people and is like "MY FRIENDS!" so I make a puke-face and he goes over to talk to them. And ditches me to look for my CDs.
So, I'm looking under P for Powerspace. I found two Powerman 5000 CDs, but that's it. No Powerspace. I'm like "Eh, I'll just go look for This Providence then." So first, I look under P, thinking maybe they'd have it under there. Nothing. So I figure, eh, it'll probably be under T, then. So I walk over to the other aisle, thinking half about how much I dislike the kids and half about how I forgot what the third CD was. After getting confused by the 'The ...' bands, I finally find T. Nothing. I finally remember the third CD and go to J.
This time they actually have a CD by the band. There's one CD by Just Surrender. But it's not the CD I want. It's the new CD. Hey, I know they don't always have the older CDs, but man, they have the old The Academy Is... CD! I probably just should have but We're In Like Sin, but I didn't wanna buy a CD I'd never heard songs off of. Heh. :P
So I'm home. With 0 CDs. But I'm making my brother take me to the CD store by McDonald's tomorrow to see if they have any of the CDs there.
Yeah. But I bought the concert tickets to go see The Academy Is... in October, so I'm pretty happy. =)

I Wish I Could Roll My R's...
Listening to: Oceans by The Format
Dude. I want The Kicks of Passion by Powerspace, This Providence by This Providence, and If These Streets Could Talk by Just Surrender. xD See, I was at Borders two days ago, so it's just like me to discover and fall in love with three CDs after I go to Borders, look for almost thirty minutes, and finally just buy Berth. That's okay though. I'm trying to get away from just 'mainstream' music. Which isn't going wonderfully, but it's getting there. xP
Anyways. I have to call my riding instructor later today to sign up just for lessons, not for P.E. Exempt. 'Cause I need to take driver's ed and I'm also taking an AP and like 3 honors classes. I don't want to have to worry about getting at least 8 hours on the horse along with everything else.
The other day I wondered why I only make ham and cheese sandwiches at school and only make peanut butter sandwiches at home. So today, when I had lunch, I decided "Hey, let's have a ham and cheese sandwich!" Because I'm crazy awesome like that. Pssh. Right, Ainslee. Anyways. After prying the fridge drawer open 'cause the turkey's wedged in there, I take out the new ham. And I stare at it. And then I'm like "How do I open this thing?" There's stickers making sure the top's closed on both sides of the container. I try peeling the stickers off the sides and my fingers just get sticky. Like three minutes later, I decide "Hey, I'm just gonna have a peanut butter sandwich."
I think I like pulled a muscle in my right arm from playing bass on Guitar Hero 2 too much. *giggles* It hurts when I reach for something and when I press on the lower part of my arm and kinda when I move it toward me. And when I raise my arm above my head. Heh. Guitar Hero's just too crazy awesome. xP
This is way too long. =)
