Your Weekly Townsend Fix Column 48
Hey Everyone!
First let me say one thing to you...ALL MUNI BUS STOPS ARE
EVIL. For those of you outside of SF, MUNI is the public bus system
for San Francisco. I was waiting after school today...and of course
it drizzles on this one particular day, well, the girl i normally
take the bus with was MIA so i left to get home and curl up on my
couch in PJs. As I get into the shelter of the bus stop something
smells....BAD. I mean it reaked of sweat and cigarette smoke together
or something, it smelled familiar but i couldn't place it. I sat
there trying to figure out what it was, I was also getting
progressivly naseaus. I only get naseaus progressively like that VERY
rarely, the last time i got naseuas like that was when I went to a
Bruce Mahoney game. And the reason I got naseaus was because someone
was smoking weed. I turned the corner to see what was happening and
sure enough a couple was rolling ciggarettes out of marijuana. I hope
it wasn't a date because if it was, it sure wasn't romantic...i
wanted to throw up. I felt sick to my stomach. It was rediculous but
sure enough the bus came. I figured i was home free of annoyances. I
went to the back of the MUNI bus to find 2 loud kids from a local
public school. The public schools here in the city aren't like the
public schools out in the east bay, south bay, and north bay. Some of
the public schools are nice and quiet but some are full of the rowdy
kids. Well I happened to be sitting in the back with the two most
annoying kids from Gal. (District school that houses some of the more
dangerous groups of the city.) I thought that the day couldn't get
any worse until the girl started rapping. I sat there wanting to
shoot myself. On top of that the guy she was with was acting all
ghetto...he used the slang and everything...who was he? Some preppy
kid who was up to my waist and wore a shirt that said "Playa 69." He
kinda looked like Aaron Carter with acne. If I didn't throw up back
at the bus stop...this guy was pushing it. They eventually got off
and I could sit in peace. I got off the bus and almost broke my neck
at the crosswalk because it was slippery. I came home and I changed
into sweats, stuck the Jessica Simpson (I was in the mood) CD and
curled up on the couch with my dog and my acting journal.
Anyways yea, that's my horror story. I was in a pretty gloomy
mood until I started drinking some blueberry tea from Maine. I
figured I might as well start writing my next column. All week is
going to be pretty cramped for me. Wednesday might be my only nothing
day. Thursday I have retreat, Friday is Mother & Daughter evening at
school (line dancing...whoo hoo), and Saturday I have a "thing" you
know what I mean, one of those rediculous functions where the entire
family is required to go. Sunday there is an "open house" for the
vacant apartment downstairs at my apartment building. It's a 1 1/2
bedroom. What's a half bedroom you ask? Like an oversizex closet but
length wise. It's a nice apartment. It's been recarpeted, painted,
and all appliances are new. Plus it's MY apartment building so you
know it's going to be cool lol. I hope some hot guy moves in or
something. And when I say "some hot guy" that comes with the
territory of him being single. A lot of young college students are in
and out of living in this apartment building trying to figure out who
they are and what their quest is in life. They have all been really
cool, my neighbors work for MAC makeup and are really sweet.
Downstairs in one of the studios a young couple and their cat,
they're quiet but really cool. Out of a 8 apartment building my
grandmother, uncle, his 2 little boys, my aunt and her family, and my
family all live. Isn't that close? It's my dad's side and sometimes
with 3 boys in the building all at the same time you want to throw
something out the window.
Anyways I was trying to figure out what to write. What could I
write about that wouldn't bore you like the first part of this
column? What could reel you in so you want to read more? Well I'm
stumped. I might be stuck here rambling till I find something to
write about...haha actually no. I think it's time yet again for
another question and answer session. I keep a list of questions i'm
asked and sometimes get around to answering them. Sometimes I write
them on paper and try and sleep on it so I give a "politically
correct" and "safe" answer. I have racked up a good number of
questions. I'm pretty much going to answer questions that have been
asked repetatively or I think are fun. I rarely get an "unfun
question" though...in fact Holly and I throughly enjoy every question
we get asked because it makes us feel special. A lot of times I sit
and think "wow it would be cool to be famous" since I love answering
questions...or just talking in general haha...ok questions...keep
them coming if you ever have any!
1) Are you and Holly are related?
Answer: HECK ya we're partners in crime...how much more related can
you get than that? Actually no we're not. We just happen to look
identical to eachother. haha I like that question?
2) I heard that you were going to move to be closer to where the
twins and Matt live is that true?
Answer: I could go on for days and a month about me moving and the
housing market. My family and I ARE in fact looking at houses but not
to be closer to the guys. I think that if I live too close to the
guys one of two things will happen. 1) Rumors will be emailed to me
about God forbid...gossip. 2) I will absolutely go insane. I love the
guys I do, it would be fun but what would happen when I go away to
college in a couple of years? The housing market is actually quite
expensive in the bay area right now. While houses up in Redding are 5
bedrooms 4.5 baths for $230,000, houses in the city aren't nearly as
big and if they are it's over a an easy $2,395,000. The housing
market is more affordable in Daly City & South San Francisco (the
cities right next to where I live now) and the guys would distance
and time wise be closer but we're not exactly using that factor when
we view houses.
3) Are you mad at the taking down of townsendboys.com?
Answer: I probably let out that mistaken vibe when explaining the
situation. No I'm not mad, really.
4) What year are you?
Answer: I'm a sophmore at SHC...same high school as the world famous
Crazy Meg and the twins' sister, who by the way is a theater legend
at SHC.
5) How come you haven't been at all the events?
Answer: I have time to myself once in a blue moon. Sometimes I want
to lock myself in the room, when I plan on doing that I realize that
the only way to lock myself in my room is to actually get a lock. The
schedule I have this week is like I have every week except I may get
2 days a week where nothing happens, and then something pops up.
6) What is your and Holly's favorite Townsend moment?
Answer: The shared one we have is seeing Matt wearing a "got ryan?"
shirt. I don't know what Holly's is personally but mine is a bunch of
different moments, Sharpie Wars, Dip 'n Dots, and the air show @
moffet field.
7) How come your family goes with you to all the events and how come
they didn't go to Tracy w/ you?
Answer: Because my family is like my best friend. I love them and
it's not like I drag them, they actually enjoy seeing the guys,
they've become extended family as well as the Dolcis. They didn't
come with me to Tracy because of schedule conflict and the fact that
I needed some quality time with my "adopted" parents.
8) What do you do outside the club?
Answer: Good question, especially since it seems like I have no life
off this computer. Not like I hate it, I actually like it because no
one bothers me when I'm on the computer. This was the polite way of
asking "Dude...do you HAVE a life?" Answer yes...outside I have
school, family and friends. After school I'm home most of the time to
pick Mel up from school or I go downtown w/ friends to the cheesecake
factory or a movie or something. On the weekends something ALWAYS
seems to pop up.
9) Why are you so mean to Dom in your columns? He's hott.
Answer: I'm aware that he's hott and I"m not mean. Ok well yeah I am
but Dom and I have this mutual understanding, that I don't do it to
hurt his feelings. Plus it's not like he never gives me a hard time,
I"m just playing with him. I love Dom I do, I have a soft spot in my
heart for that boy, I put on a mean front to hide it sometimes
because I've learned that if you let any guy know that you love him
half to death he'll have a rocket ego...we wouldn't that now would we?
10) Do you have a crush on any of the guys?
Answer: Ok first off, this came from a girl who was at one of their
school shows. She's in the 6th grade and I have no idea if the guys
said anyting to make her ask this. I coach girls in the 6th grade...I
know how their minds work. And the answer to that is...no. Even if I
did do you think I'd tell you guys? News travels faster than the
speed of light here.
11) Who is Plus 5?
Answer: Not a boy band. That's Plus One. Plus 5 is the guys' dancers.
AND I can name them all now, Andrea, Penni, Tiffany, Meghan, and
Katelyn...HA! They're a great bunch of girls, all who are very very
sweet. Not to mention limber...very very limber.
12) Will another one of the guys' parents be on the future site?
Answer: I can almost gurantee the answer of "no" will be the correct
answer.
13) How can I communicate w/ other fans now that the message board
and chatrooms re gone?
Answer: There is a message board up on the townsendstreetteam.com
site as well as Amber's. Of course you can always post here or keep
emailing.
14) Is there any way to access information from the townsendboys.com
site?
Answer: The temporary site townsendboys.com is up. Same address but
it is very basic and w/o any contacts, pictures etc.
15) Is there any way to contact the boys now?
Answer: Nope, not right now at least. All of their townsendboys.com
addresses aren't functional anymore. You can always contact the guys
at the events though, you can contact them directly of course by
slapping them in the butt...haha JUST KIDDING! Don't slap the guys in
the butt...I'm serious now. I don't want to get in trouble. RPCC DOES
NOT PROMOTE BUTT CONTACT!
16) Where exactly is Ryan from?
Answer: LMAO GOOD QUESTION. Ok he has said multiple things, El
Cerrito, Berkeley, Richmond and the East Bay. Last his address said
it was Richmond but it's right next door to El Cerrito....which is
right next door to Berkeley.....which is in the East Bay...haha it's
Richmond as far as exact location goes.
17) How can I get a "got ryan?" shirt? Email the club address holly
and I share @ RyesPartyCrewClub@y... and we'll respond. If we
get enough requests Holly and I will put a group of them into
production and sell them to you guys. But you do have to tell us you
want one because we can't read your mind.
Ok that's all the questions that I can answer for now. I have about
10 more BUT 4 are questions I'm not at liberty to answer and the
other 6 I'm still thinking about the answers to. I have a stack
of "Non related" questions haha that I'll email the answer to.
Anyways I'll be back...take care and be good.
Stay Safe & Stay You
Love Always,
Kristen
