that show is going to be the cause of me speaking with an english accents
im having thoughts with an accent too!
right as im typing this!


i've also been collecting some of my favorite music lyrics
or the ones that just get stuck in my head, either way, i still think its a good idea

lets give a sample, shall we?

"They say a watched pot won't ever boil, you can't raise a baby on motor oil"

"Every spark of friendship and love will die without a home"

"I get my glory in the desert rain"

"I'll do graffiti if you sing to me in french"

"age makes no difference until you open your mouth"
(thats actually my favorite one)

"my body is a cage that keeps me from dancin' with the one i love but my mind holds the key"

"The sky's often used as a metaphor. i suppose its because its so big and expansive. when a long stranded cloud sits just above the horizon, leaving a strip of clear blue beneath it, it becomes a panorama, and you can turn your head 360 degrees and the same line follows you round, if the land is sufficiently flat, really nothing can be compared to it"

just a sample
kind of leaves you hanging just like vince's story in that mighty boosh episode

complete EBE adventure

This is the entire EBE adventure with gina, as far as i can remember since its now late june

Friday April 27 (or was it thursday)
After one of my classes, i think it was, no it wasnt italian, oh well. Anyway, i have a voicemail. i check it and its gina, shes talking about working merch for everybody else. at the time, i wasnt as big of a fan of them but i did know that they were buddies with rooney. i called gina back and we got all giddy and fan-girly about thinking that we could get rooney's numbers. ha oh how naive we were, but still hopeful.

over the weekend, i talked to sam on the ebe myspace confirming the working and things

Monday April 30
we were supposed to be there at 5pm
gina had to drop off an artwork, so i waited in the car and since it was "rush hour" in tempe, and the fact my damn car clock was 10 min slow made us barely make it, well we really didnt need to be there that early. after we had arrived the band began to unload their stuff. gina talked to mikey, who was setting up his keyboard outside and i was watching carrick and austin bring in stuff. we finally decided to go inside. there was austin telling us how to set things up and where exactly. he was super cute in his little hoodie as always. we didnt have any change to give out, so i tried texting austin, and mikey eventually showed up, but by that time we had already come up with some. oh well. we put things together and on the rack and saw that they had panties. hahaa we got a good laugh out of that. Those things got a lot of attention, even from the lead singer of the higher as we were packing up. The merch guy of self against city was cute, i hadnt caught his name but it turned out to be drew. There was of course the most attention right after they played with all the little girls loving on carrick. gina and i watched some 'whore' as we called her talk to mikey and we of course saw her at the tucson show. near the end of the show carrick mentioned they didnt have anyone working the tucson show the next day, so gina and i freaked out and thought about it and said ' what the hell' so we agreed. we went back to our lives

Tuesday May 1
It happened that this was the last day of classes, but i felt like sleeping in and gina and i had planned already to miss art history so we could leave. her friend sam joined us and it was pretty uneventful on the drive down as normal, i think sam fell asleep and we just listened to some tunes from my ipod. we got there a bit early, earlier than ebe (which they said they took the 'scenic route' what scenic route? ha they probably got lost) the higher was there and we decided just to scope out the place. not bad, but tucson isnt such a nice city, small and sheltered. we were hungry so we decided to get some delicious sonic. when we returned reggie, the guitarist of the higher had his guitar on the floor (a pretty sweet gibson might i add) and we once again set up and the guys were sound checking. they were the first to play. carrick came over to see if anyone would want to tape the show. gina volunteered as i stayed back and was heavily distracted by the family guy playing just over our heads. they played born to do which made me very happy, LOVE that song. during the show carrick gave a shout out to gina in the crowd who was filming and austin added a shout out to the merch, aka me. haha i felt special. love that guy. there wasnt much traffic to the merch area and drew was there again. although there was some lady who payed us 20 bucks to go get a poster signed, which gina went out and did. easiest 20 bucks everrr. we had an awkward weird time just hanging out, i was intimidated by them or something. we each got a picture with all of them and i felt like asking austin for a picture with just him. i was too chicken and lame. but we did get a picture with reggie at the end. on the way home was astonishing, we were listening to some demetri martin and ebes next show (the next day) was in los angeles. i suggested why not? gina was at first apprehensive but i persuaded her, since it would be the best birthday for her. unfortuately sam couldnt make it. i packed up and freaked out that night.

Wednesday May 2
I picked ms gina up around 8? 830? i cant remember nad we gased up and left. we had fun times listening to my ipod for about 5 hours or more. we got to los angeles around 2 pm and we got some lunch at toi and walked down sunset to amoeba records and went inside guitar center as i drooled over the gibson les pauls and messed around on keyboards while gina actually made music on they keys. we hung out for a while after until ginas aunt got home so we could put our stuff away and get ready for the show at the troubador! ah how awesome. unfortunately we actually had to pay for our tickets, courtesy of gina. we first went up top then wandered down below and then decided to stand in the back as the place filled up. act as if played and we were stuck behind crazy dancing fans of theirs, but no worries, they werent bad at all. then over it played! gah that guitarist freaked me out in tempe and he didnt fail that night. carrick walked by and he saw us and was happily suprised. I was eye stalking austin through a window while he was in the bar, it looked like he was talking to his mom? i had no idea. when everybody else got onstage we went up to right in front of mikey and gina commented on his shirt being the same one hes had on forever. we spent some time on mikeys side of the stage and then we moved over to austin's side, to give each unloved guy some lovin since carrick gets all the little girls. ha! during the show as same as the tucson show, austin was looking my way, or so i thought. my vision is tampered at concerts, but i do have a video of me being caught by him when i was focusing the camera at him hahaa its funny. near the end of the show, as self against city was starting their set, gina and i waited to talk to mikey then when she was conversing with him, she was getting her own lovin haha as i got a picture with him. but my mission was getting a picture with austin we went around back about 1700 times and back to the front to get a picture. in between, we finally found out the significance of orange soda and well that carrick like french authors. i finally got the nerves to ask austin for a picture and he was appreciative for gina and i coming all the way. good. we deserved it hahah. hes so adorable. well when get got back gina and i went to toi and got some of the best ice cream everrrrr! then we left the next morning after picking up some toi breakfast that taunted our noses the whole drive back and it was, well amazingggg

The Killers! (!!!!!!!!!!!!)

talk about one of the best shows
the atmosphere was great
the lights, the intro, the confetti, and the integration of it all with the songs
oohhhh my sooooooooooo good

security was actually a mighty large biotch
no cameras at all
they flashed a light at you if they even saw one
whores, ugh
but still i have videos and pictures from other shows
but i was RIGHT in the fronnnnt and as i have said before, if i was a tweenie obsessed with brandy, i would have been in heaven, but i am more of a ronnie gal
and that mark, so talented!!

i also managed to get some glances from ronnie and mark and creepily stared at by ted
brandy also noticed me because i was one of the few not looking at him 24/7
dave was too far away to see me but he has such energy!! he is so wonderful to watch
brings a lot to the show
and mark even danced around near ronnie and teddy

we went to wait for them outside
but only dave mark ted and the captain came outside
i even had some sour patch kids for ronnie, i really just wanted to meet him
and you can tell how shy marky is, but i would expect ronnie to want to come out, if mark managed to deal with the small crowd, why couldnt he? i understand if brandy wouldnt want to come out in case he was tired i mean i was 'singing' along to 'this river is wild' and that song is killer tiring! and i got nothing signed because i dont feel right shoving things in their faces and not having them acknowledge me, oh well
theres alwaysss next timeeeee

14 July 2006

I found this.

Whilst rumaging and going through my desk, I discovered this hilarious piece of work I wrote. I was obviously on a Hunter S. Thompson high.
I apologize for the ridiculousness(and insane run-on sentences), but it's a funny read.


It began as any other day and ended as the same but my mind went wild in the middle. I woke up around 11 am, a little before since my mother came into my room explaining how the security man needed to eventually check out my room. The thought of not being able to sleep anymore rattled my brain as I began to think of the day's activities: me postponing as long as possible to clean my room as my mother constantly bugged me about it. And that's exactly what I did. I managed to stall until 3 pm, when she exclaimed that I must get dressed and help her pick out stove tops and such since the state of the new house was well below our family's living standards and many conflicts arose because of it. I once again stalled getting dressed because, even though we were just going to home depot, I still had nothing to wear. I put on the cut off shorts I had been wearing often and tried on many shirts knowing what whichever one I would choose, I would still be hot from the desert heat. As my mother's voice continued to pass through my closed door, I listened to the Wonder Years' song because I had been thinking of Fred Savage for some odd reason. I sit here now even as my mind wonders off, I have to focus and make sure I write this down before some more fantastic idea comes screaming into my head. The idea for writing this came from none other than H.S.T. If you don't know who that is, I'm sure you've seen the movie based on one of his books (unless you're mormon) Anyway back to the wild day I had. Since I had witnessed two spiders (that word is even scary) in one night, I've become VERY paranoid. So, when leaving the house, I look up, down, and all around. I even managed to burn myself on the seatbelt sitting in my mother's car. The next few places we visited were uncomparable to Sears. The lady that helped us with appliances looked as if she had jumped straight out of a Dr. Seuss book - her hair, her nose and the way she smiled was just like many Seuss characters. Luckily I got distracted from her face by myself looking in oven reflections and, well, checking myself out, but of course across the room were TVs and a scene from pirates came on and that basically made my day as I mouthed the words to the scene. After that is mostly a blur considering the couple of glasses of wine I consumed. All that comes to mind is Hitch, ice cream, and looking at old photos. I have no clue why I'm even talking to him. Ugh, I'm disgusted in myself. The music keeps distracting my thoughts, but for now that is all. I hope I don't get murdered in my sleep by spiders or go insane from the darkness.
