HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm legal!!!! I can buy tobacco, get a credit card, and get a checking account!! YAHOO!!
Anywhoo, since I had a few minutes, I thought Id update about the concert more.
Like I said in my last entry, it was AWESOME. Camille performed first. And let me tell you, if she had sung on the show like she did that night, I would have voted for her. She smoothed out her voice alot and it sounded really good. I knew she had the baisic talent to sing, she just had to fine tune it a little. Then after her was Jon Peter Lewis I think. He RULED! he ran around the audience and did cartwhells and his normal funny-ass dance moves. He is such a riot. I made a sign for him too. :) It said "A little less conversation, a little more J.P.L." I love him too.
George was also very good. I liked him a lot better in person than on the show. I had to call my mom when he sang too cuz she loves him. LOL. another one who surprised me was Jenniffer. She was very good. The duet that her and George sang together was really nice sounding. And of course, my John Stevens was just beyond superb. I bought a picture of him that I'm gonna frame and hang on my wall. I also got buttons of John Stevens, and J.P.L., and an American Idol tour keychain. I so wish that I got something for James though. I know he really wanted to go, but couldn't cuz he was stuck working. I should have gotten him something. He liked Jasmine and Diana. I like Diana too, but I could have done without Jasmine.
Speaking of James, he sent me a text message today wishing me a happy birthday. he's such a sweet heart.
Anywoo, i be going now, but b4 i do, heres another classic convo w/ JP. take note the first line in it was what he originally IMed me with. LMAO.: (all of this is quotes from the family guy)
Jpak06: the concept of a geocentric universe makes u sexually excited, DOESNT IT??!? Whoser830: SIR YES SIR!
Jpak06: oh yeah she comes over here and wants me to put a goose in her panties and im like wut the hell?!
Whoser830: *ding*
Jpak06: a man with a big sword stabbed me in the ear wen i was 5, and again wen i was 30 Jpak06: hey morte! OH GOD PLEEZ DONT HURT ME!
Jpak06: OH GOD I FORFIT!!
Whoser830: LOL

YAHOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YAHOOOOO!!!!!! ::CHEERS LOUDLY::
EVERYONE SAY HELLO TO THE MAN OF THE HOUR!:
OMG HE IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!! and he wore that jacket too!!!!
incase you're wondering why i'm cheering for him, I just got back from the American Idol concert. HOLY CRAP it ruled!!! There were just two bad parts. One, Fantasia sucked so much, she gave me a headache. (I really don't like to be mean about her, I mean, I'm sure she's a very nice person, I just can't stand her voice.) and, Amy Adams wasn't there!!!! there was only 9 of them. I was really looking forward to seeing Amy too!! she was really good! they were still selling merchandise of her, she just wasn't there. very weird. But I seriously love John. I really and truely love him. (not as much as clay, but an extremly close second.) John was awesome. He sang one of his old songs and there was a black background behind him wiht little silver dotted lights behind him. He just looked so awesome. And say hello to the next man of the hour:
GIVE IT UP FOR JON PETER LEWIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I called my mom when George sang cuz she likes him :O). Jenniffer and George sand this really good song together. and George even sang "I beleive in a thing called love" by The Darkness!!! but he put his own gospel spin on it! it was AWESOME and, JPL say "Hey Ya" by outkast. AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And, I got one of my birthday presents yesterday. Well, it was my dad's idea I guess. I got a Kitten. yea, a real live kitten. Denise's cat had kittens and I got one. Her name is Belle. She's black and white :) very cute!! She was really good last night too. she stayed downstairs i think. I closed my door cuz I don't want her in here. Theres things that could hurt her. I hope she stays downstairs tonight too. I'll post a picture when I get one. Anyway, gatta wake up for church tomorrow. Ciao.

Wow. I just had the best day. Holy crap. It ruled.
I got my hair cut!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and let me just say, I absolutly LOVE it. It's sooooo great. I can't believe my hair is so short. It RULES! I'll post a pic as soon as I get one.
And to be completely honest, It was fun. The guy(Bill) who did it was THE MAN. Denise goes to this little place like 15 minutes away from me (Which is where she brought me) and it's a gay couple who own it and run it. They are SOOOO cool! LOL. And you really wouldn't know they're gay. I mean, going by the typical stereo types. Bill was SOOO nice. Him and Denise were hashing it out the whole time (playfully of course) and it was So funny. I absolutly love my hair. I showed him the pics of John Rzeznik that I printed out. (because his hair was the influence of my haircut) and he goes "he's a handsome man!" LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!::Dies:: that was funny. I'm just like "hellll yeah!" and Denise got me all this shampo and conditioner and hair serum stuff that he said I should use when I wash my hair. Holy crap that stuff was expensive. and the haircut itself was expensive... I'm going back on October 21 to get highlights done and possibly a trim. He kept saying while he was cutting my hair how pretty and "georgous" (SP?) it is. ::flattered:: and he said that I shuold color it, but...no...sorry, i won't do it. I'll do highlights and thats enough for me. But it was all serious stuff. Bill Really knows what he's doing. Holy crap. he was like, okay, I'm going to wash your hair now and I need to look at your curl pattern". I'm like....WHOA!!!!!! It was an all-new experience for me. but it was nice! I can't wait to ge tmy highlights done.
Anywhoo, getting caught up in a convo with J.P. heres a taste of it :
Jpak06: epiphany day for john-paul
Jpak06: lol
Whoser830: epiphany?
Jpak06: i had one of those lil lightbulbs flash above my head, and i thot...duuuuuuuuuh Whoser830: lol!
Whoser830: yeah, i have those on ocassion to
Jpak06: but this is HUGE
Whoser830: and i stress "on occasion"
Jpak06: it was like a 500watt,if those exist...
Jpak06: lol Whoser830: lol, like florecent light bulb type thing?
Whoser830: or car high beam?
Jpak06: understatement ^_^
hehe!
Ciao!

This is gonna be a quick entry
Well folks, Tomorrow is the day. Tomorrow is the day that i get my hair sheered off. Hell yeah. I can't wait. I just gatta wash it and straighten it so the dude doesn't have a hard time working with it. Oh man, i can't wait to get my hair under controll. maybe this dude will have some ideas about what I could do to make it more manageable. Also, my hair gets dry and shitty really easily. Maybe he'll know what to do.
Mike is officially gone. ::sniff:: I miss him already. I hope he got settled in at a college alright and he's having an awesome time...I also hope his roomate isn't a total jerk.
I think I'm pretty much back to my normal self. I've moved on from the crap that was bothering me, and I think I'm okay now.
Anywhoo. I told you this was gonna be a quick entry.
cya!

This morning I thought I'd be writing about a shitty day. Cuz thats how it started off. OMG, it was horrible. I started out by forgetting to turn my phone off of silent mode, so I got two calls this morning that a completely missed. One from my dad and another one from God knows who. I didn't recognize the number at all, but i know it was a number from my town. Weird. I tried doing a reverse look-up on AOL white pages, but it came up as no results. I tried calling it to see who it was, but the line was busy. Maybe I'll try again tomorrow. Then, my dad has left me a message that I couldn't even get. See, I called my voicemail, and for the first time that I've had it, they asked me to put in a password. Yeah, I never made a password. But I just put in random numbers that sounded like someone that I would make as a password, and I got it. I figured it out just as Kristin was calling me back about hanging out today. So, I got her message okay. But GEEZ! that was a PAIN. Then, I decided to walk to the mall because I had to get money, and I wanted to go yell at T-Mobile for making my life hell. Then, thats when the second horrible thing happend. My F***** sandle broke!!!! I've had this pair of sandels for like 5 years and they finally threw in the towell. I mean, I guess I can still wear them, they'll just feel a little loose. The bolt-job my dad did on them when they broke the first time gave in. It's kinda like my yellow coat. I won't throw it away for anything, even though my mom has been BEGGING me to get a new one for years cuz my yellow one is sorta old. But I won't!!!! I love my yellow coat! and they don't make coats like that anymore. The ones they make now are all "stylish" and shit and have fur all over them. Yeah right. I'm keeping my yellow coat!!! Anyway, Back to my day. so, about5 minutes after my sandel broke, I got kristin's message and she said she couldn't do anything. So, i just carried on and went about my business. I went to the bank and whatever, then kristin calles again and said that she was at Wendy's across the street and she came over and picked me up and brought me back to her house. we hung there for a few minutes, then walked all the way to the center. Holy crap we walked A LOT today. I pretty much walked across town. Actually, I did. And my town is pretty big. Then, after we went to the center, we walked all the way back to my house. By the time we got back we were frickin' dehydrated and dead tired. so, we chilled for a while and watched "Secret Window". Hella great movie. Then, her mom came and picked her up. Thats prob. the last time I'll see Kristin ebfore she goes to college. :(. Mike leaves tomorrow tooo!!!!! WAHHHH!!!!!! I seriously hope Sam didn't leave. I couldn't get in touch with her!!!!! OMG, i'll miss her soooo much. I'll try calling her tomorrow. and I haven't talked to her in sooo long! Katie leaves on my birthday i think (an excellent birthday present....::evil laugh::). I'm so horrible to that girl, i just feel bad. most of it is behind her back too. I really do feel bad about it, but, sometimes she just makes me crazy. gatta do something. I sent her a "goodbye" card. I also sent one to Mike, Rae, and Kristin. I should have sent one to Sam if I Frickin' thought of it. Damnit! If I don't hear from her, Ill probably see her on alumni day. I think I'll go back. As much as I don't want to, there are some poeple I wanna see. Like Mr. Rush, Mr. Casey and Mrs. Hammel....and Chad, John, Dave, Dean(even though I see him a lot), and hey, I'll admit I kinda wanna see Dorrian too. even though I wasn't his friend, He was still frickin' histerical. I still say it frickin feels weird to be done with school. It's like you spend 13 years of your life on the same routine pretty much, and it all ends so abruptly. But hey, NO MORE PENCILS, NO MORE BOOKS, NO MORE TEACHER'S DIRTY LOOKS!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Anywhoo. thats it for today. Ciao!

Well, I fell better. But, I'm still not acting like my normal self. I'm no longer the happy person Iwas a few days ago that was slowing desintigrating.(sp?) I still have things hanging on in the back of my mind that won't let go. Although, I will admit talking to Chandra helped a lot for some reason. I don't really know why. Well it could be that she said that she'd take a picture of Elvis's house when she's in Memphis. And she may posisbly be getting my birthday present there. I'd LOVE some Elvis memorabelia straight from Memphis! I got a Elvis puzzle the other day. It's a shit load of tiny images of Elvis that make one big one. It's really cool. Its not as hard as I thought It would be too.
Lauren randomly showed up at my door today. We went down to Jerry's Artarama to get posterboard for signs that we're making for the American Idol Concert. I can't wait for that. It's on Saturday!
I also can't wait to get my hair cut on Thursday. We may be going out to dinner on Thursday too to celebrate my Birthday.
As you can see, (if its published now) I changed my lay-out. I also watched that movie last night. I love it more and more as i keep watching it. It's just the greatest movie ever made. It really makes you look at life differently and makes you realize things you may not have realized before. And no, I don't just like it because Edward Norton is in it. I mean, he's my favorite actor, but he's just a minor thing in how much this movie rocks. See it.
Mike's leaving on Wednesday, and he still has my Big Fish movie. ::sigh:: MIke- if you read this before you leave, YOu can bring my movie to school with you and mail it back to me from there if you can't get it back before you leave. I'd appreciate it. :).
Best wishes to J.P. who started....i think sophmore year, and Chandra who started college today.
Ciao.

Normally, I can deal with bullshit. I'm usually good at it. Everytime something bad happens, I put it behind me and move on. Life's too short right? But last night, I just broke down. I guess when you keep putting things behind you, they build up after a while just waiting to piss you off more than you need to be. And It all came out the second I walked in the door last night.
I was so confused last night before I knew the truth. I won't say anymore than, before I got home, Denise called my cell phone and sounded really panicked. Then, I came home and found my aunt randomly sleeping on our couch. (and no, she's not dead). I know none of that will make any sense and will never tell you what actually happend, but believe me, it's bad. Maybe I'll tlak about it in here eventually, but not quite yet.
::sigh::. I need to get the fuck outta here. I'm trapped and I can't get out.
Ugh. I wish I knew what to do. I wish I knew the answer to being optomistic and happy. But nothing will be right untill i can get out of here.
I should take a large asprin and go to bed.

This sucks. My birthday is in 10 days and I'm not going to have anyone to share it with besides my parents and Denise. I suppose I can have a small get-together with Alex, Chad, Git, and Lauren. Not that Alex will show up, or Chad will remember to show up, or that Git won't have band practice or a show or something. Yipeee. Great 18th birthday. Maybe I could talk James or Erica into doing something too. I wish I could do something with all of my friends together. I'm probably not getting much for my birthday either. Im getting a haircut and thats it. I was thinking of buying myself a guitar amp. as a present to myself. I think i can get a cheap Ibanez or something. But man, everyone has a huge party on their 18th birthday, and im not doing anything. I guess it wouldn't really matter anyways because everytime I try to have a party, it doesn't work out. I've tried a few times and it never fails to fail.
My unlrealistic birthday list:
1. A house in L.A. or Santa Monica with a pool in the backyard
2. A corvette
3. A starring role in a movie or TV show
4. a meet and greet with Drew Carey
5. an all expense paid plane ticket to Hawaii for like a month or more
My real birthday list is on amazon. IM me or e-mail if you want the address.
I was thinking of how cool it would be to meet Lisa Marie Presley (elvis's daughter) That would be awesome, except I hear she's pretty snotty. But, I guess I can't blame her. She has the ultimate bragging rights. I mean, her father was Elvis for crying out loud. Unless you say your father is God, theres not much you can do to top that. ::sigh:: I wish Elvis was still alive.
Spent the day with Kristin at the mall the other day. I got the Harry Potter and the sorcerer's stone computer game. I've been playing it non-stop. It's really fun, except really hard. Especially when you have to play quidditch.
I had an interview at Toy Chest today. I gues it went alright. To be honest, not a lot happend. she didn't really ask me any questions, she just told me her situation with needing people. The whole thing lasted like 15 minutes. I really can't say if I'm going toget a job there or not. It would be nice to get out of Papyrus, but then again, if Cat frames herself, then I would apply for the manager job. Hell yeah. I'd have that place running like a swiss watch. If it wasn't run so badley, It really wouldn't be a bad place to work. I would definatly be the manager. Im not sure if I would get hired, but I would do it if I was.
I can hear my dad watching Ace Ventura down stairs. LOL. I love that movie. And the funny thing is, it's rated PG-13 and I saw it when I was like...8. LOL. Ive literally seen it like 200 times. I can probably still say every line from it. I remember caitlin getting so pissed at me because I wouldn't shut up about that movie. ::Sigh:: memories.
I saw a special on E! the other day about Jim Carrey. It was really interesting. Jim Carrey was probably the first actor I knew and respected. Him and Robin Williams.
Well, I guess thats all the B.S. from my life that I can lay on you for now. Take it easy all.

Something has made me want to write again today. I really can't say what.
Yesterday was the anniversary of Elvis's death. On Turner Classic Movies, they had a marathon all day of his movies. They showed "viva los vegas", "kissin' cousins", "kid gallahad", and a bunch of other great movies. Then after the movies, they showed a concert. I taped most of the movies. I still have to watch some of them and I have to watch the concert still. I really love that guy. I really don't know what makes me love him so much. I really love his music and his movies. And he just seemed like such a free-spirited person. I really wish he was still alive. He'd be in his 70's, but still. Denise said she saw him in concert right before he started to deteriorate. She said it was awesome. I bet. I can't even begin to describe how much i would have liked to see him in concert.
Someone else I've taken a liking to is Jonny Lang. He's a guitarist who started out when he was like 13. I really like his song "Red Light". It's soooooooooo good. The video was on ONDemand so, i taped it. Really good song. I reccomend it. definatly.
heres some lyrics:
You sing a song, While sitting at a red lightYou think of home, while sitting at a red lightToo slow to roll Put your life on holdAn open pathWith nowhere to goYou starte to wonder, while sitting at a red lightYou can run a red light, Give up at a red lightYou break the molds, when running through the tollsSpeeding throught you whole lifeA chance to breath while sittin' at a red lightYou look around, reflecting on your lifeA chance to think Am I drinking too muchShould I keep goingLose the life that I loveA second glanceWhen coming to a red light
good huh? he's an amazing guitar player. My dad sorta got me started on him.
I heard a rumor that Savage Garden is talking about doing a reunion tour. OMG, i'd give ANYTHING.
Called Sam today. no answer. Called her yesterday too. No answer. Maybe she's on vacation.
Had sort of a funny conversation with Mike today. LOL, we were talking "ghetto" then he told me that going to college is gonna be his "kiss off" and I'll never see him again. LOL, of course, he was kidding....or was he?.......:). I mean, he is going to college with the Olson twins....He could just hook up with one of them and leave me all by myself...lol, nah, he wouldn't do that.....he better not....
Im thinking of making a new lay-out soon. Im not sure of what, but we'll see.
anywhoo, Ciao.

I started typing a new entry yesterday and it got messed up. So sorry.
Anyway, what i was goibng to say was, a few days ago, I got the Alter Bridge CD. (Alter Bridge is the new "Creed".) And I will admit, it is very good. Im just not used to the singer yet. It's just so weird hearing Creed's music with a new voice. But overall, I really like the CD. It really displays the instrumentals a lot more and Tremonti is sitll kicking ass on the guitar.
I also got the best of Jimi Hendrix CD. it's awesome.
Anywhoo. I got plans with Kristin Tomorrow to go to the mall. Which means I gatta get up early. ick. oh well.
I still have to call Sam. I HAVE to see her before she leaves. I just hope she hasn't already....Alix just left a few days ago. I miss my mini-me!!!!!!!!! I also gatta see Mike!!!!
Cat FINALLY gave me my Keeping the Faith DVD back to me. I was really worried I would enver get it back. Now the only one thats still out is Big Fish.
heh, i feel like Blockbuster.
rented "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" the other day. Still gatta watch it.
Anywhoo, i think ill go now. Ciao.

(I started typing this a few days ago but never finished. before the "======" is what i typed earlyer)
*~*updated livejournal today*~*
Today wasn't much better than yesterday. It was a typical Friday the 13th for me. Horribe luck.
I attempted to make a latte using the set my mom got for Christmas. Yeah, the coffee that came with the set sucked ass. Ick. I used it for hot cocoa instead.
I'm really worried about Luis. He's in florida right now where the hurricane is at. I'm really really really really worried abomut him. I sent him a text message asking him if he was okay and he didn't answer. But, I'm sure answering my messages is the last thing on his mind, especially if he's in the middle of a hurricane. But I hope he's okay. Kristin called me today and told me that she's being ecavuated. I think she was on vacation in North Carolina and got called to evacuate. hope she's okay too.
============================
Today just sucked. Like seriously. The people that came into the store today were not customers. They were savages. And I was completely fed up with Cat today. she leaves the store like 10 times durring the day (or more) and leaves me there to do everything myself. There was no one in the store for a good half hour and It got busy and people are asking me questions and I'm trying to ring people up at the same time. but one girl was absolutly pissing me off. i was ready to kick her out of the store. Katie came in to visit me today and we walked around the mall for my second time out of the store today compared to cat's 1,000 breaks.
Among all this crap, there is some good news. When I sent the e-mail to that company who called me for the interview, (the one where i apologized for not being able to show up) They sent me an e-mail back saying that they want me to come in again!!!!!!!!! so, i'm going in this thursday at 10:30. Im praying with all that's holy that I get that job. I have to get out of Papyrus. I can't stand it anymore and I'm getting NO WHERE fast. Im making crap money, and I'm working my ass off and doing more that I should ahve just so Cat can sit on her fat ass and relax the whole day. I can't deal with that anymore. I may not mind working there so much If I was at a higher position. If I was the manager of that store, I'd run things. I wouldn't sit back and let things pile up on me untill the whole store got out of hand. It's so unorgianized in that store, you can't find ANYTHING you're looking for, and everything we have to do is saved till the last minute. Yeah, tahts not the way to run things.
Well, the good thing is, The American Idol concert is coming up. And also, my hair appointment is coming up. Two good things ahead. Just everyone PRAY and pray and pray some more that I get that job on Thursday, So I can tell Cat to stick it.

Sorry, i haven't felt much like updating in the past few days. asnd ya know what? i don't evne feel like it now.
Well, as it turned out, the e-mail i talked about in my last post turned out to not be the greatest e-mail i ever got. Yeah, i schedualed an interview and everything, but my dad wasn't home to bring me to it, so I ended up not going and e-mailing them back apologizing that I couldn't make it. Yeah, it all fell through. just like everything else in my miserable useless worthless piece of crap life.
I schedualed my driving test today. It's October 8th at 7:30 in the fucking morning. Yeha, i won't pass. Theres no way in all hell taht I'll pass. First of all, I can't even walk at 7:30 in the morning, let alone drive. And secondly, i don't give a flying fuck about driving. AND, I can't drive to save my life. I haven't even practiced taht much, and I probably won't get much more time in because my dad works, i work, and we never have time. So, im gonna go to the thing with 100% odds against me taht I'm gonna fail. the AAA just pisses me off to NO FUCKING END!!!!!!!!!! NO ONE in the entire goddamn building has an IQ higher than that of a garden snail. They're all the dumbest people to ever walk the planet. But, even though I don't give a crap about driving, i kinda just wanna get it done with so i never have to deal with any of it again.
some other stuff has happend to, but you're not interested. Bye.

Hey everyone!!! i'm back!!!!!!!
And I had a GREAT time in Lake George. It was really really fun. It seemed like we were there for a lot longer than we were which was good.
When we first got in our hotel room, i was pretty amazed. The room was very big, and we even had a little patio outside with chairs :). very cool. The only bad part was that My dad snores so I didn't get as much sleep as I hoped the two nights we were there. The first day we got there, we called Ellen and drove out to the place she was staying to chill with them for a while. We then came back and walked around the outlet stores. Our hotel was right next to them. :). Then we met up with Ellen and the crew latter on for dinner and decided to go mini-golfing at Pirate's Cove afterwords I love Pirate's Cove. They used to ahve one in Florida, but they closed it. Sooooooo much fun. Even though we lost our bet....See, me, jeff, and jenn were on one team and my dad and ellen were on another team so we said "whichever team loses at mini-golf buys icecream". And yeah...we lost, and ended up gettin us all icecream at Ben and Jerry's.... LOL. Me and jeff were pretty much quoting Family Guy the whole time. LOL. After that, we said "goodbye" and went back to our hotels. The next day, We all went to Saratoga to the race track. again, sooo much fun. We didn't win anything, but we still had a great time. Ellen was the only one that won something. She won like 10 bucks. LOL, not much, but still something. We then went back to our hotels again and said "goodbye". my dad just wanted to stya in the room and read so I decided to go abck to the outlet stores. I went to Gap, Eddie Bauer, Pac Sun Tommy Hilfiger, Harry and David's...etc. I got a pair of paints and a shirt at Gap, and a shoulder bag and a tank top at eddie Bauer, and some choclate covered pretzels for my mom at harry and David's. Everything is soooo much cheaper than here. And the Gap was SOOOOOO much better. The Gap at our mall sucks so much. But this one was AWESOME! I made out like a bandit! lol.
Overall, we had a really good time. So happy i went :)
Well, I made my hair appointment. Well, actually Denise made it for me. I'm getting my hair cut!!! :-D!!!! Im kinda excited. My hair could use a make-over.
Ya know whats kinda sad? I'm not going to be able to do anyting wiht my friends for my 18th birthday. It's on the 30th and everyone will already be at college. It's too late to try to arrange something now. Especially since I know no one will come. Maybe I'll try to scrape something up with the few people left.
speaking of people leaving for college, I GATTA arrange to do something with Sam!! I haven't seen her in SOOOOOOOOOOOOO long. Maybe I"ll call her tomorrow...
My mom got me an early birthday present! she got me "Secret Window" on DVD, and the American Idol season 3 book they put out!!!! I LOVE BOTH OF THEM!!!
Well, unless I set something up with Sam for tomorrow, I'm oficially decaring tomorrow "Whose Line catch-up day". I have a bunch of Whose Line and Drew Carey Show episodes from this season that I haven't watched yet just cuz of Lack of time. But, Tomorrow, I shall catch up. :-D
anywhoo. Thats enough crap for today. Ciao :)

Wow, it's already August 3rd!!!!! that means that theres just 27 Days till my b-day!!!!!!!! wahooooo!!!!.
Heh, The other day I saw KRISTIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)!! Me and Kristin decided at the last minute that she was gonna come over and we were gonna walk up to Baskin Robbins for ice cream :-D. Then she came back to my house for a lil while and we went in more chatrooms....("I DANCED WITH JUSTIN!!!)....LMAO!. That was also the same day that I lost six dollars!!!!! I think it fell out of my pocket when I took my phone out or something. I was really mad. heh, thats okay tho.
The same day I saw Kristin, I also saw MIKE!!!!!!!!! yay Mike! heh, He came over to watch the tape of my acting show cuz he couldn't make it when it actually happend. He said it was really good :). Im proud of myself now that I've got Mike's approval, cuz he's like "actor extrodinaire". ;-D. We also watched the very controversial eppisode of Family Guy called "When You Wish Upon a Weinstien". Thats one of the funniest ones. LOL.
My dad got back from new jersey today. He also brought me back a Diamondbacks Hat!!! wahoooo!!!!! and the best news is..... RANDY JOHNSON IS NOT GOING TO THE YANKEES!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU!!! THERE IS A GOD!!!!
I went to the bookstore today and I thought I was going to get one book cuz i had a 5 dollar gift cirtificate (i have this card thing for that store that whenever you spend a certain amount of money, you get a 5 dollar gift cirtificate) and I ended up with 4 books. LOL, see i got two, then the guy said that all the paperbacks are buy three get one free. So, i got two more. LOL. I got the book version of "Big Fish" and another book by that same author called "Watermellon King" and "Holes" and "Nothing but the truth" which Iv'e been looking for for a long time. So, I'm happy :) but I spent more money than I wanted to....eh, thats okay :) i'll be reading for a while though....And I still have to get "Eagle Strike". The 4th book in the Alex Rider series taht just kicks some serious Ass. I absolutly love them. I HIGHLY reccomend reading the series. The books are called "Stormbreaker", "Point Blank", "Skeleton Key" and "Eagle Strike". I've read the first three and I love them. Alex Rider is like a 14 year old secret angent who works for an intellegence agency. So, he's like a James Bond. I know it sounds corny when hearing it the way I described it, but really, they're awesome books. They're by Anthony Horowitz. Go read em'!
I watched "25th Hour" last night w/ Edward Norton. I Thought it was good. It was sort of interesting to watch. I'd reccomend it. It's nowhere near as good as Keeping the Faith, and The Italian Job, But still good and worth seeing.
Anywhoo, Tomorrow I leave for Lake George, so, you won't hear from me again untill Friday when i get back. See ya latter!!!!
Ciao!
