Sundays Suck

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.

HONDA CIVIC TOUR = SUCK!!!.

I hate the people that schedule the Honda Civic Tour.

EVERYONE SKIPS MY CITY.

I'd pay $200 a ticket to see The Hush Sound AND Motion City Soundtrack [!] AND Panic! at the Disco [I refuse to drop the !.]

I hate this.

And I refuse to buy Panic!'s new album, because of it.

*sigh*

I honestly cried for almost an hour when I saw the tour dates.

And you suck, Phantom Planet.

Rebel Without a Cause

I took notes when I watched Rebel Without a Cause because I have to write a movie review. =)

HERE THEY ARE BECAUSE I WANT TO UPDATE MY BLOG BUT DON'T WANT TO TYPE UP AN ENTRY:

- Jerky panning
- Music – very dramatic
- Random parts, that didn’t seem necessary [like sneeze in planetarium]
- Some of the audio seemed weird or off or something
- Continuity issues (untucked shirt, then tucked shirt, etc.)
- Interesting to see two sides of the story/the stories of Jim and Judy
- Some cuts seemed too soon or too quick; seems like it cut some of the audio off
- Don’t understand what’s up with the kid that likes to comb his hair... [name?] – OH. HE’S JOHN! I’M SUCH AN IDIOT!!! HE’S THE KID THAT SHOT THE PUPPIES!!! – he’s also a creepy stalker. – his nickname’s Plato
- Insanely confused
- Scream when Buzz went off the cliff seemed fake
- The upside down shot when Jim was lying upside down on the couch was kind of awesome
- Seemed like Jim was kind of throwing temper tantrums
- Seemed too echoey in the living/family room
- THE CHICKEN FREAKED ME OUT.
- Why aren’t the parents like “Why are all these people asking about my son...?”
- Judy, John, Jim – they all start with J. Why?
- Why did Plato shoot the puppies?
- Judy got over Buzz WAAAAY too quickly; like, if my boyfriend just died, I don’t think I’d be all “LET’S GO TO AN ABANDONED HOUSE WITH THIS GUY I MET THIS MORNING AND CUDDLE AND LAUGH AND PRETEND TO BE NEWLYWEDS THAT WANT TO BUY A HOUSE.”
- AUDIO = WEIRD.
- Abandoned house reminds me of Sunset Boulevard
- Plato’s a little too weird... Like he’s creepy... O.o He’s all “I’M GOING TO STALK JIM BECAUSE I WANT TO MARRY HIM. HE’S SO DREAMY.”
- And what’s with Plato falling asleep on the ground...? In like five seconds?
- I love how right when they leave Plato asleep outside, Judy’s friends show up.
- Honestly, Judy, you’ve only known him for a day. What’s wrong with you...? Didn’t your boyfriend like JUST die? LIKE FIVE SECONDS AGO!?! WHY ARE YOU FLIRTING WITH JIM!? I know it’s a movie, but COME ON.
- You don’t love Jim. Honestly. Just shut the fuzz up. You’re just in denial, and want to love someone because your dad hates you.
- That’d be so scary to wake up to... It’s like “AH GORILLA MAN! AND THAT GUY WITH THE UGLY HAT! AND THE GUY WHO’S EYEBROWS DON’T MATCH!”
- The music hurts my ears.
- Dive, Plato, DIIIIIIIIVE. GUN!? WHY THE FRICK DID YOU KEEP THE FRICKING GUN?
- Where’d Judy and Jim go...? Weren’t they like right there?
- I don’t know why you wouldn’t look under the table. Don’t shoot them, Jim. They didn’t do anything to you. Okay, lie. They did. But still.
- “Let’s clobber someone with this candlestick!”
- Who’s crying? Is it Plato, because it sounds like Judy...
- I don’t get the ‘Support For Son’ thing that Plato found.
- Plato + gun = VERY BAD.
- When he shot Crunch [name?] it was such a WEIRD fall... REALLY fake.
- Plato obviously wants Jim to take the place of his dad and that’s why he’s like “WHY’D YOU LEAVE ME!? YOU’RE NOT MY FATHER!”
- Let’s roll in the bushes.
- THE HOUSE TOTALLY REMINDS ME OF SUNSET BOULEVARD.
- Stop shooting the police, man...
- More bush rolling.
- I’m having too much fun with this.
- “The police are after us, so let’s make out!”
- Plato <3s Jim.
- He’s trying to make them his family? SERIOUSLY MAN THEY – LOL! HE’S ALL “BE MY MOMMY AND DADDY! I’M A PSYCHO!”
- I bet Plato dies in the end.
- Y’all like breaking windows.
- I love that they all just jump in the bushes. It’s amazing. It’s like “I have to hide, let’s JUMP!!!”
- I hate Jim’s parents. And Judy’s. I like that you never see Plato’s.
- DRAMATIC IRONY. “There’s some other kids in trouble.” OH YEAH, BUT THEY’RE YOUR KIDS. xD
- Aw, I feel bad for Plato’s nanny or whatever she is. She’s worried about him. =(
- “Come out” of the closet, Plato.
- “That’s my son!” HAHAHAHA. “HOLD YOUR FIRE!” “ARE YOU SURE!?” “I think I know my son.”
- I don’t like Judy’s hair.
- Shoot ‘im, Plato. “You can shoot me if you want to. Okay?” HI-LARIOUS.
- “I’ve got a gun.” “Yeah, I knowww...” ... “How are you?” “Fine.” “That’s fine.” “Jim? Do you think the end of the world will come at nighttime?” “Mmmnn. At dawn. Come on, hehe, where are you? Whatcha hidin’ for?” SHOOT JIM, PLATO.
- I don’t like this. Plato’s a psycho.
- Aw, Plato. You look like Josh from Drake and Josh.
- Plato seems a ton younger than Jim. He’s like those puppies that he shot.
- OH COME ON. BACK TO THE BEGINNING. HE KEEPS TRYING TO GIVE PLATO HIS JACKET.
- “Can I keep it?” – WEIRDEST THING EVER. WHY IS HE STROKING IT?
- Shoot him.
- *hugs the gun* “No, I need it.”
- “You promised to give it back.” – CREEPO.
- “Every one of them wants to see that you’re safe.”
- Why? HAHAHA. I’m a bad person. :
- THAT MAKES A SMILEY!? WOOT.
- God, Plato is a LITTLE KID. Seriously.
- The slow motion when Plato got shot fit really well...
- That’s one sucky first day of school.
- Plato has his shoe on the foot with the blue sock and then it switches when you see the close up. CONTINUITY!
- I love how a kid had to die to get his dad to be strong for his son. :
- He’s dead, innit he?
- AW! His nanny/housekeeper lady!
- The police suck. =(
- Why does Judy care more about Plato than her boyfriend? I mean, it was sad, but STILL.
- And why are the parents smiling!?
- I like that the whole thing took place in like 24 hours. Well, a little more than that, but still.

Cats are Stupid

Listening to: Even If It Kills Me by Motion City Soundtrack
What I Should Be Doing: Reading Act 4 of Macbeth or SLEEPING!!!
I'm Also: Talking to Allie

The Hot Topic I go to smells like babies.

I was looking at a magazine in Hot Topic with my friends, and I saw a little comic [like one panel] in the corner, and I automatically thought "That looks like Mitch Clem's comics!" And then I looked for the artist name and it was Mitch Clem.

And then I realized that I have absolutely NO life. :D

My friends and I spent like 6-7 hours at the mall today, and my legs HURT SO BADLY.

Even though I don't know if I can even go to the HCT, I've been listening to my MCS playlist OVER AND OVER, 'cause I want to memorize all the words to all the songs. =P

You'retheemptinessthewholeworldsingsatnight... [Hold Me Down - Motion City Soundtrack]

I love them more than I should. :)

Why Can't I Trust Anyone - No, Not Even Me?

Listening to: I Wanna Do It All by Terri Clark
What I Should Be Doing: Driver's Ed
I'm Also: Wishing I was hanging out/laughing with my friends, wondering why I think about TAI... so much, being thirsty, playing solitaire, writing crud that's pretty dang awful, and waiting for someone to talk to me on Yahoo! Messenger

Super Bowl tickets range from $4,000 to $8,000. I had no idea they cost that much. I wish my sister didn't have softball tryouts, 'cause the Packers are playing and that's my dad's favorite team. He says seeing us is better than football, but I still feel awful and angry at my mom.

Uhm. I want to buy Interventions and Lullabies by The Format and Like Vines by The Hush Sound and some CD by Cobra Starship. I need more money, especially since I'm planning on buying at least two tickets to the HONDA CIVIC TOUR.

I forgot to lend Manola my Powerspace CD and give her back The Higher's CD that she bought but I have.

My bangs are bothering me. I want a haircut.

My laptop's burning my leg right through my jeans.

Okay, another song lyric I wish I wrote:
"We may suffer together, but we all die alone."

I wish I was happy.

I'm lonely.

Funerals are awful, and so are the quiet car rides home. Especially when you're leaving family that you won't see again until someone else dies.

What's wrong with me?

Secondhand Serenade is my new favorite band. Except not. But they make up a good portion of my 'Calm Songs' playlist, and I've noticed that I've been listening to that more than anything else recently.

Bass = Fishies or Guitars?

Listening to: Beer by Psychostick
What I Should Be Doing: Working on Driver's Ed/Nothing. =)
I'm Also: Talking to Allie, reading Sims 2 stories, playing Solitaire, and happydancing because I finally tell the difference between Jesse and Matt from MCS.

I don't get why people think I can write... Or why they think I'm creative, or have artistic talent, or any of that crud.

'Cause I can't write, and I'm not creative, and I don't have artistic talent. xD

But people insist on like pretending I do...

The Cat Empire's Australian and therefore awesome. xP

I want to go to the mall for no reason.

I think my dad's missing the Super Bowl so my babysitter doesn't have to take my sister to softball tryouts.

GO ME. I know who's who in Motion City Soundtrack before. Woo. =P

It only took me like four days of looking at pictures. :

Uh.
