everyday just gets weirder and weirder. breighann and i went on an underwear shopping extravaganza last night...and then hit up the gelateria. honestly, that'll probably be like, the highlight of my week. unless i go to panera for lunch tomorow. today kiera and i made a list of things that make me happy. it was quite long and involved glitter, peanut butter, boys from certain towns...this weekend i get to do a lot of homework, not go to shows cause i have to go shopping for spain(oh boo hoo), and sleep and pack. its gonna be sad going cause i wont be able to chill with this person i'm starting to like...yeah. and its almost 2 months till my birthday. sweet jesus. that'll scare me...and its kevin's birthday on saturday and we're supposed to be at this really weird age and i dont feel it i still feel like i'm about 4.

its saturday night and today didn't quite turn out like i thought it would. yesterday was fun though....after school breighann and i hit up starbucks(SURPRISE!!!)and then matty picked ryan, matt, and i up to go see the assitant, neil perry and off minor. so it didn't take us 45 minutes like i thought...more like an hour and a half. but we stopped for frosties. so we get there, and i see annmarie and give her the zines and all that jazz, and i find ryan rocking out to a band playing a kiss song. not only did they play that song. but they ONLY played kiss songs. it made ryan's night, no joke. so then some other band came on, and they were pretty good. off minor was next, and they were really really good. kevin and max and laura came at that point, so we had a whole group there. kevin, laura and i went for chinese after offminor and it took us longer than we expected, cause we came back during the end of the neil perry set, which pissed me off cause i promised ryan i'd take pictures. the assistant was last, and they were amazing as usual. i did have to leave when they started talking about sexual abuse and the like, so i think i scared some kids outside. so afterwards, we head to the car, and i got groped by a guy who could barely stand up he was so drunk. yeeeah massive ammounts of alcohol. today i headed into the city to see yaphett kotto and volume 11. i got there a few minutes before the first band went on. the first band was pretty good, i wanted to pick up a split of their's but had no money. and then i remembered that it was andie's b-day party tonight, and fuck i had to head back for that. so i stayed for a few panthers songs, and didnt want to leave, but i had to. so then jeff picked me up in westfield and we got to andie's party JUST as it was being broken up by the cops. NICE!!! so it was all for nothing but whatever. and then jeff drove me home cause i was so tired. and i did JRP notecards for awhile. yeah. tomorow should suck.

so kevin's show was last night, and it went really well. i got there around 4-ish cause lindz and i were baking our hearts out. we are the stop and shop's favorite customers now. so we chill for awhile and i set up my table of yummy food. accidentally shot by hunters went on first. once again, i'm inspired. amazing preformance. and i've never seen matty b go off so hard. then fight our way out went on, and they were ok i guess, not quite my thing. the freakout went on after them and laura and i went to java to get some drinkage. then revolution summer went on and they were really good, they always are. ryan was upset that they wouldnt cover motley crue. purpose were after them and were amazing. stupid me was wearing flip flops because i have huge blisters, and now my toes and feet are all gross and bruised and in pain. i think i popped a vocal cord or something(i dont even know if one can do that) but half way through purpose, my voice just like, didnt work. but everything is well again. fast times went on last and were fun. i haven't seen them since this summer but they didnt play my favorite songs so i was kinda sad. apres the ordeal, we decided to go to the westfield diner where the mood was quasi-strange. and now i'm pretty tired since i was up at 7:30 yesterday morning cause i couldnt sleep. fuck that. not its out to lunch with breighann.

this has been the most hectic weekend. friday after school i went to the city and chilled with rob. it was fun and cold. see...i dress like it will be warm out..hoping the weather will take a hint. it never does. saturday i had to get up quasi-early to go to the city with my dad. and then i went to a posh-bar and yeah i'm just not gonna talk about that. and i saw "the mexican" which was surprisingly good. not like, really wonderful. but i thought it was gonna suck hardcore and i was pleasantly surprised that it didnt. sunday....accidentally shot by hunters first show. i'm inspired. what can i say. so kevin made me film....but i was laughing pretty hard so it was shaky. best 8 minute set I'VE ever seen. i dont think everyone else appreciated it as much as me. and the guys in the band. oh well. as long as we had fun. and i havent done any homework. and dont plan on doing it....even though i am in demi-trouble with my mom for getting a horrible interim from my math teacher saying that i'm a horrible person. or maybe that i just need to start paying attention, working, doing better on quizzes, handing things in....you know the deal. i go to spain in less than a month. all will be well....and destiny's child has been on repeat. word.

i'm so tired. weezer was last night. i'm so happy tired. except everything leading up to weezer almost caused a coronary. so i was on the phone with ticketmaster from like, 10 am to about 3 pm. no joke. because i hadn't gotten my tickets. but my mom shmoozed somehow and got me on willcall. so we all went in but our lineup changed considerably because some people couldnt go because of the snow(i could've been one of those people). and we met a crazy brazilian on the subway! he had come up to florida from brazil to see weezer. so while he was there he was like, "hell. i may as well travel the US while i'm here" so he's been in NYC for a week or so, going to record labels and trying to get his band signed. he's like, super hardcore on the road. so we got in after like, 2 hours of waiting inside. we saw about 3 ozma songs and they were ok....then GUK came on. first of all, it was strange seeing them in front of like, 3,000 people, and then kevin had to break up like, 2 fights. its the get up kids. ?????. so then weezer went on. and the stage set up was like, a prom or a high school dance with the basketball hoops and streamers and a disco ball. and the flashing W. it was banging. when they got off-stage and hadn't played only in dreams i almost had a tantrum. but that and surfwax america were their encores. so then we had to dash to the subway then to the train station. and then home. thank god it was a snow day. its 2:38 and i'm exhausted. and i woke up like, 2 hours ago. the only bad parts of yesterday were: ticket master, waiting out in the sleet, seeing dave with his new skanky girlfriend making out during GUK(bleh bleh bleh), coming home and thinking i was going to have school. yeeeah.
3.4.2001
ah sunday. emily dickinson hated sundays. i hate sundays too. but i dont like emily dickinson either. so friday night elizabeth, martiario and i met sean and some of his friends for dinner at pantera, breighann met us there. i had to be home early because of the national spanish exam the next morning, but it was fun. saturday i was up bright and early for the national spanish exam(and to help earlier), and i wanted to kill someone. we were there at 8:15 like mrs. jacobus said to be. we didnt do anything until 9:15...and we still got yelled at. anyway. the exam was amusing, but i just have a fucked up sense of humor. then kevin, ryan and i had panic attacks (maybe just me) on getting to the assistant/purpose show that night. we all found rides, so kevin came over and we listened to purpose and kevin's bouncing around my room saying that he cant wait to see purpose. we were all psyched. nick comes at 7 to pick us up....and we get there at 8. right after purpose played. right after. the only bands we saw were shady view terrace and the assistant(who were amazing). ryan proceeded to drink an entire squeeze bottle of barbacue sauce, and i swear the entire place smelled like chicken. the show was over at 9:30. we all went to a diner and had fun yeah. eric mooned a lot of people on the way home. and he promised i could angry dragon him(dont get any ideas) when he was drinking milk. he has yet to fulfill that promise. so then kevin came over. til about 3:30...i drove him home...illegally. hehehe. yeah my mom had gone to the city ohhhh baby and left me with the car. yeah. now its stupid sunday. sob.
