Today, I went to Santa Cruz with Trav, Tommy, and their parents. It was sooo much fun.
I played Mario Kart, rode rides, ate enough to make me sick, and bought a sweatshirt. I have to say that it was a wonderful day. Tommy didn’t go on rides, because he doesn’t like them, but Trav and I did. Seriously, it was super fun.
The Giant Dipper was the best. And the pirate ship was pretty freaking cool, I have to say. And the haunted house. Oh goodness. Trav and I got lost. It was SO dark in there. Not “It’s dark.” it was “We can’t fucking see.” We kept running into things and we didn’t know where the hell we were going. And the air that scared the shit out of me, plus the floor that dropped. Yeah, it was worth five dollars, lady.
Lunch was great. I ate waaay too much. I just can’t help myself when it comes to clam cowder in a bread bowl. Yum.
And Trav and I took an epic picture. I love it.

I went into San Fran today. WOOTS. To get skinny jeans from H&M. But mostly to meet Alyssa. And I did! *Squee*
That was pretty awesome, I have to say. It was just Alyssa, Trav, Tommy, and me for a few hours and it was great. :] Shh, don’t tell my mommy. She doesn’t know.
I have come to realize that I have some pretty awesome friends. No, wait, I already knew that. Nevermind. Let’s just say today, I got another RL awesome friend.
So anywho, my pants look good, I had a great time with my friends, and I got to meet Alyssa. I would have to say today was pretty freaking amazing.
Crush. Crush Crush.
I kinda hate that word. But it is a good word to use when you like someone. A crush: short term, but intense feelings. Oh yes, that is a good word to use. Most crushes go away, and many leave you hurt. Ouch. Not something I look forward to. Of course, I’ve had many little infatuations. But I’ve found that many of those we forced feelings. When I really have a crush it ends up hurting me. Every single time. Ouch is right.
I think I’m about to be crushed.
Last night was the A Skylit Drive show. The first one with Jag. It was pretty good. But before I get there, I want to talk about my head. Before the show, we had to go to the store because I needed some serious pain killers. My head was pounding. Before too long my headache went away. YAY!
The bands before ASD were pretty good. I enjoyed myself. But when ASD came on… wow. The kids went crazy. And I was one of them. Everyone on the floor was in the pit. And I was on the edge of the hardcore dancer’s circle. That sucked. I kept getting kicked. And I got punched in the head. Ouch. Not so fun. I have a big ass lump now. I was touching at least four people at all times, and I was getting pushed all around. I was pushing people too. It was sooo fucking hot. Seriously, I thought it was hot before their set started, with so many people so close together. But when it got started up and all the movement happened… wow. I lost a lot of water weight, let me tell you. Sweat sweat sweat. I was covered. And most of it wasn’t mine. It was awesome. And crazy.
Anywho, Jag, the new guy, is pretty good. He sounds good. He doesn’t do the old stuff as well as Jordan, but did anyone really think he would? He’s a different guy and not what we are used to. But the new stuff sounded great. And I think he’ll do just fine as their new front man.
I wrote this song last weeek. And I finished the lyrics a few days ago. I like it. :]
Fear the Falling
Another day, another break
I like the fact that you’re only a message away
So I’ll sit down and think of you
Tell me lovely, what you’re going through
So I’m pouring myself onto your page
I sincerely hope that you’re listening
Is this breathtakingly sad?
Or is it you that’s stopped my breathing?
If it is, don’t go
I love the way you’ve got me feeling
So tell me, tell me love
What are you feeling?
Tell me, I’m asking
What keeps your heart beating?
Because you are starting to be
What pumps the blood through my veins
You’re starting to take a hold of me
Pictures of you flash through
I see your face
And it passes my time
Another day, another life saved
I’m hating the fact that you’re only a message away
So I’ll sit down and dream of you
Tell me lovely, will I see you soon?
I’m still pouring myself onto your page
I sincerely hope you aren’t listening
Maybe someday, this intensity will fade
So tell me, tell me love
What are you feeling?
Tell me, I’m asking
What keeps your heart beating?
Because you are starting to be
What pumps the blood through my veins
You’re starting to take a hold of me
Soon you’ll have all of me
So tell me, tell me love
What are you feeling?
I’m dying to know
What you’re seeing
Tell me, I’m asking
What keeps your heart beating?
