  • The Tension and the Terror

    Wow, a lot has certainly happened since my last update..hm, where to begin?

    Last Wednesday was Katie's sweet 16. It was really amazing, to say the least. She looked really pretty and it has been declared that she played the best music ever played at a sweet 16. So yeah, I had a great time, even if some people were being kinda perverted and whatnot *coughwaldocough*, but it got all cleared up, so it's cool.

    It was last week too, that I recieved some really upsetting news, ironically about someone that seldom finds a way to communicate with me. It was kind of odd how that barrier of complacency [Is that even a word?] and being indifferent to that individual just came down so quickly...So, I could be making an unexpected trip to Florida..hm.

    mmkay, so yesterday was definitely AMAZING. I went to lunch with RJ, and then we went back to his house & watched/recited the second season of Family Guy. After that we picked up Eddie, and we headed off to Patchogue to then meet up with Ryan and his girlfriend for The benefit concert with Kevin Divine, Northstar, and Straylight Run. OH MY GOD, it was awesome. We got front row seats!! First, Kevin Divine played, and he was pretty good, until his last song, which rhymed "we fucked up in Iraq" with "we're going to send all our draft cards back"..haha I went into minor convulsions, while Eddie and RJ almost beat the crap out of the guy [but not really, duh.]

    RJ: "Yeah, and then you'll go to jail!!"

    So, Northstar came on after that whole anti-war fiasco [seriously, I think RJ, Eddie, and I were the only right wing people in the whole theatre lol] , and they were really good. It was especially cool to see them play because this was their last show..

    Finally, Straylight Run took the stage...they were soo amazing live! They played all of their songs, and two new ones [sadly, one was another song about war, lol] off of their new ep..In the middle of one of their songs, all four of us just started to flick the crap out of each other, people must have thought we were nuts or something. At the end, everyone sang along to "Existentialism on Prom Night". After the show, we wound up meeting Will, the drummer, and that was cool. We also tried to get Michelle's harmonica, lol for cloning purposes, lol you guys are seriously deranged. haha Then we were looking around to see if we could jack anything else, but then we were told we had to leave, oh well. Thanks for a phenomenal night, I love you guys <3

    Sometimes, I just can't explain, all the ways you devastate me, always on my mind..

  • Buildings Burn, People Die, But Real Love is Forever.

    [ Current Mood | contemplative ]
    [ Current Music | "Stars", Les Misérables ]

    Have you ever solely based a huge portion of your time upon something? Seriously, I'm not talking about watching a show on tv or a video game or even possibly some shows. Like, something that eases you into being content and stops you from lashing out on the most undeserving people? Well, I've done something all this year that has kept me [relatively] tranquil since September or so. I know I'm going to get made fun of by all but one or two people, but I've written so much this year, some being fiction, some journal entries [some of which are online, and others not], and a ton of personal narratives. I've just found it to be so incredibly calming, and wow, I'm afraid to see what would have happened had I not done this. I was cleaning my room the other day, and I found a bunch of my writings, and it's astounding how much a human can possibly change within a school year, not even, in a few certain circumstances.

    So, I watched The Crow late Friday night. I watched it with a different outlook on things, and I still loved every single moment of it. I saw a new meaning to some of my favorite lines, and it's really just a great movie overall, it isn't necessary to have a significant other to be able to watch this film. Speaking of films, I got Historian for Senior High Drama. Levine wants to make a documentary of the upcoming drama, and it's pretty much my responsibility. I finally get to make my own film, something I never gotten the chance to do. I really can't wait for next year.

    The thing is, as great as it was to have found my old writings, I got some mixed emotions with them. Some were written upon such a sensitive topic, it's a wonder the ink hadn't run, nor were they crinkley. I found a bunch of them all in one pile, some were indeed crinkled, some were folded infinitely, one was even written in a few different languages. However, I digress. What really got me a bit upset, annoyed, or well, you all know I hate to quote the French, but there was this certain je ne se quois. A few were torn into a few different pieces. Part of me was afraid to read them, but I realized that to truly become the person that I'd like to be, I'd have to read them. I realized that in ripping it up, that there really wasn't much accomplished. I was just overly frustrated, and I felt too, well, I lack another term for this, too. So, I've realized that it's really not important to "have someone". And it's not entirely necessary for a set of best friends to all have someone at the same time. If anything, it shouldn't be strived for in life, it should be taken as a ambivalent coincidence. I'll admit it, I sometimes have a problem seeing myself the way I would if I had someone telling me that I was beautiful, or attractive, or whatever. But for me, now, it's okay. I don't need anyone to tell me that I'm beautiful or any of that stuff. I can determine it by myself, and my friends are honest with me when it comes to that. So, I don't have anyone. Not in the least. And I can say it, very proudly at that too. I don't have anyone, nor am I chasing after anyone. There's always the traditional high school crush, but hey, I don't really want anything; Romance is clearly not my first priority right now, and I don't really know when it will, or if it ever will. I'm a firm believer in whatever happens, happens, and one must just learn how to roll with the punches. As for love, romance, whatever it is, don't go looking for it. It'll happen when the time is right.

    This was way longer than I had intended.

  • So you can see just where I'm at..
    [ Current Music | "Springtime for Hitler", The Producers ]

    Something desperately needs to be said about a certain topic. Ever since it happened, I've kept my opinions silenced (for once), in order to not place a bias upon anything, or force any rifts to occur, which they did, even with my silence.

    I don't really feel the need to say what happened earlier this week, considering how nearly everyone in the free world knows. I'm completely fine with the decision, in fact, I pretty much suggested it. I knew things would probably worsen if things were to continue, so I sacrificed something to try to ease things. I was not either right or wrong in one of the circumstances that caused it. It just happened, and there's absolutely nothing I can do about it now. Part of me knows it may have been not one of the best moves I've ever made, but it's too late for anything to be done, and the other part of me asks, "So What? There's been worse things in this school, why do you people care so much?". The other party in this situation (within the situation), was in the same position as me, neither right nor wrong. People need to realize what happened nearly three months ago isn't happening now, and both have moved on. They also need to leave this other person, my best friend alone, and they need to stop getting me to be on their side. I'm on my own side in this, even though I don't really understand why people have taken sides. It's ridiculous.

    Things have been said about my reaction. Of course I'm a little upset, but that doesn't mean I have to go mope around about it. Nothing really lasts forever, as pessimistic as it sounds. So what if I've been just as crazy and outgoing like I normally am? Little things like this can't get me down, it's pointless. Besides, this clearly needed to happen now, before things got more serious, or worse, or whatever the proper term may be. I need to carry on with my life, and obviously, I'm okay with the decision. This doesn't make me a slut, or a bitch, or anything like that, so maybe if people saw all of the sides to this story, they'd see why I'm acting like I am normally.

    So, perhaps, things can come back to the level of normalcy that I'm on right now, or just, something near that. But that's out of my reach.

    In other news, Kristi and I hung out at Starbuck's last night to have some quality insane conversations. Here's just a glimpse of the stupidity that we were encountering last night:

    -"This song reminds me of butterflies"
    "WHAT?!?! Chris Mason is a butterfly?"
    -Vote for Pedro, he makes good coffee.
    -Pedro likes Kristi
    -He's ASEXUAL-MAN!!!
    -Warding off gangsters/muggers/rapists
    -"I'm a hermaphrodite, take your pick!"
    -"You take my bag, I'll piss on you!!"

    I can only wait to see what unravels tomorrow.
