Mudslides, a guy named Cheeto, Sublime, and partying all night

On Saturday I had a blastor at least. This chick Jackie had a open house. It was great stupid me brought some of my friends and they just sat there on the couch in the living room while myself and everyone had a great time. I think that was a first real high school party they have ever been to and the irony is that there not in high school. Well its gonna suck for them in college if they dont know how to handle themselves in social situations where they dont know any one.

 Well besides the wallflowers (hee hee who even called ppl that anymore) everyone had a fuckin good ass time. I drank like a fish Ive never drank that much ever Im so glad that I didnt blow chunks every where (romantic sounding isnt) but I had the worse hangover in my inter life (that consisting of 18 years) damn it was bad. The next night Kasey had a few ppl at her house and it was like 8 p.m and I still could feel my head throbbing.

I got a new job, in the city. Its great Im doing visuals and set design for a furniture show room. Its like a temp job. But Im racking in the big bucks. The only thing that sucks about it, is the commute. Shit I hate it. The subway fuckin sucks sometimes. especially when ppl urinate all over the seats or they throw up on the train and it fuckin reeks. Damn I hate that shit.

Well its Friday now. And I still havent told you about the john mayer, counting crows and maroon 5 concert. Well I cant tell you about it now. Cuz Im going to a giants game.

And Im out

Television man is crazy saying we're juvenile delinquent wrecks

Well Billy rapped all night about his suicide

How he kick it in the head when he was twenty-five

Speed jive don't want to stay alive

When you're twenty-five

And Wendy's stealing clothes from Marks and Sparks

And Freedy's got spots from ripping off the stars from his face

Funky little boat race

Television man is crazy saying we're juvenile delinquent wrecks

Oh man I need TV when I got T Rex

Oh brother you guessed

I'm a dude dad

All the young dudes (Hey dudes)

Carry the news (Where are ya)

Boogaloo dudes (Stand up Come on)

Carry the news

All the young dudes (I want to hear you)

Carry the news (I want to see you)

Boogaloo dudes (And I want to talk to you all of you)

Carry the news

Now Lucy looks sweet cause he dresses like a queen

But he can kick like a mule it's a real mean team

But we can love oh yes we can love

And my brother's back at home with his Beatles and his Stones

We never got it off on that revolution stuff

What a drag too many snags

Now I've drunk a lot of wine and I'm feeling fine

Got to race some cat to bed

Oh is there concrete all around

Or is it in my head

Yeah

And Im out. I think that made my point

The Funeral, Growing up

Nathans funeral/ memorial service was last weekend. I didnt know him but him and christen were best of. God I felt so bad for her. I cant say I exactly know what she feeling probably lonely-ness. I did the best I could do to comfort her. But is there really much you can do in times like these.

And Im out

Its nice to sleep with someone with out having to actually sleep with them.

Ive been having so many emotions right now I dont know what I really should be feeling. I mean I wont say that I dont love the attention cuz I do. This Is what always wanted oh god have I wanted this attention for so long but you know what. Is it my time right now cuz now that its here I dont think Im ready for it. Does that make sense? I know that you dont exactly understand what Im talking about right now. But if I dont talk to you who am I suppose to talk to. Well besides all my confusion everything else is fabulous.

At the moment really feeling: the new hot hot heat CD

Love: the new Michelle branch song

Hate: I fucking hate my job and fucking everyone that works there it is pure hell!

Durning: the clueless soundtrack

And Im out  now that Ive gotten you all caught up!

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life youve imagined."- Henry David Thoreau

My senior year is over and for some reason I feel like I should have the answers. Answers to what, you wonder. Well, to everything. After all, its time to go out and away form what is safe and familiar, and into new and fantastic places. To pay attention to our most lasting dreams and to follow them to the furthest extent they will take us; and even then, still further. But I dont have answers. Rather, I have questions.

What is it like to sip streaming hot coffee at the counter of a towns only diner? What sounds does the water make as it flows past the left bank of the seine river at noon on a fresh summer day? How do people do that trick were they pretend to remove there our thumb? Will I ever sit next to a famous movie star on a red-eye flight to Vegas? How embarrassing does it feel to see yourself doing the Macarena on diamond vision at an As baseball game?

Will outer space tourism become commonplace in my lifetime? Is skydiving really the ultimate adrenaline rush? Do dogs really understand how much we love them? Will there ever de another televisions show as good as friends? Are New York bagels really that much better?

Where will I be when they announce the next president? Where will I be when they announce the next presidential assassination? Will people cry in the streets like 1963?

            Will I ever take up residence in Iowa, or small Alaska town, where I will shop at a general store and wear hiking boots in public because theyre just functional? Am I destined to lust after material status, living near culture and Nordstrom? Does it matter?

            What does it feel like to say forever: and truly mean it? It is possible to truly mean it?

            Was Romeo actually in love with Rosalin, and merely lusting after Juliet? Can money really buy happiness, even just a little bit?

            These are all things I wonder about, things that I will wonder about until I see them and feel them and experience them, living life. And while the questions will always keep coming, now its time for me to go out and start finding their answers.

"All our lives we search for someone to love, someone who makes us complete. We chose partners and change partners. We dance to a song of heartbreak and hope all in the while wondering if somewhere, somehow, there is someone searching for us."

Tuesday, June 17, 2003

Wow. Im surprised Im feeling it right now! I didnt think I would come so soon but its here. Its sooo here! <- these arent explination points of happiness its more shock. Do you really wanna know what Im talking about now I know that you do!! I know you do! Well Im kinda tired so Ill write more about it tomorrow Im so sorry!

Everyone have a great night sleep.

And Im out

THE ATARIS SING...
Being grown up isn't half as fun as growing up: These are the best days of our lives. The only thing that matters is just following your heart and eventually you'll finally get it right. Breaking into hotel swimming pools, and wreaking havoc on our world. Hanging out at truck stops just to pass the time. The black top's singing me to sleep. Lighting fireworks in parking lots, illuminate the blackest nights. Cherry cokes under this moonlight summer sky. 2015 Riverside, it's time to say, "goodbye." Get on the bus, it's time to go.
