    F$%#&&%$#$%

    By Meeko,

    My desktop computer just decided it was time to stop working and just shut off. I try turning it back on and just get three beeps. So I'm on my labtop now =(
     
    Did I mention all of my stories and just about everything was on that computer and that computer only?
     
    I'm having the worst f**ken week.

    Currently obsessed with the song:
     
    Remembering Sunday, By All Time Low, FT Juliet Simms
     
     
     
     
     
    So firstly let me say sorry to all my readers out there, I've been busy with work, and getting sick twice within the past month, one that I'm still dealing with, and lets face it it's just not fun.
     
    I should post more, but it's late and I'm hurting, so I'll leave you with this story from last night.
     
    ***
     
    WARNING THE FOLLOWING IS A TRUE STORY, BASED ON A SPOILED, EMOTIONALLY CHALENGED, AND CURRENTLY SUFFERING FROM A COLD, GAY MALE. READ WITH CAUTION!!!
     
     
     
    "Mommy, I don't feel good. Can you buy me something to eat?" I ask in my sick baby voice that I pull off oh so well.
     
    "What do you want?" She asks ignoring my whinny little voice.
     
    "I don't know."
     
    So the next 5 minutes was spent with us arguing about what I want to eat. She gets mad when I can't decide what I want so she hangs up. She calls me back about 10 minutes later.
     
    "I'm dead!" I stated flatly.
     
    "You're what?" She asks confused.
     
    "I'm dead," I repeated.
     
    "Why?"
     
    "Because no one fed me," I know I know, I blame it on me being sick. Yeah that's what it was.
     
    "Oh be quiet, did you decide what you want?"
     
    "A mommy, who loves me and feeds me whenever I'm hungry, and doesn't care that I act stupid all the time and love me no matter how ugly I am?"
     
    "MICHAEL!" She's not impressed, clearly.
     
    "Subway?"
     
    So we hang up again, and she calls me back when she gets to subway, so she's standing there and telling the lady behind the counter everything I'm telling her.
     
    "What kind of sandwich do you want?" She asks me.
     
    "Spicy Italian, 6 inch on wheat."
     
    Her talking to the lady "He wants a ...." and so every time I told her what I wanted, cheese, toasted not toasted, mustard, etc she repeated to the lady. So when we were on the veggies I felt the need to ask something.
     
    Me talking to my mom on the phone still:
     
    "Oh and can you tell her to make a big smiley face on the sandwich because I'm sick and it would make me feel better?"
     
    "He wants you too..." but then she stopped herself as it sunk in to her brain what I was asking. So back into the phone she went, "Wait," Insert Dramatic Pause Here "MICHAEL! SHUT UP." And then she hung up.
     
    The nerve.
     
    So as her car pulled into the driveway and she entered my aunties house with sandwich in hand I took it, gave her a big WET kiss and went into my room. And when I say wet I mean I slobbered all over her face.
     
    A few seconds later I came back out sandwich in hand, my face dead serious demanding her to return the sandwich.
     
    Her and my aunty both gave me "Uh oh what's wrong with it" Looks.
     
    "What's wrong does it taste bad?" she asks.
     
    "Nope it tastes fine," I said simply.
     
    "Then what's wrong?" She asked impatiently trying to take the food away from me so she can do the mother inspection.
     
    "Look!" I said pointing at it.
     
    "What?" they both asked, my aunty looking at it now too.
     
    "WHERES THE SMILEY FACE!" I yelled.

    Todays adventure, in the world of Michael...
     
     
     
    "Higher, Mr. Michael, Higher!" J said in between pushes.
     
    "Okay, but tell me to stop if you go too high alright buddy?"
     
    "I want to go all the way above that tree!" He said pointing to the old big tree shading him from the sun.
     
    "That's too high! You might fall off and land in the tree!" I said with a chuckle
     
    "Stop too high!" he screamed, when I started to push him with two hands instead of just one because my arm was getting sore.
     
    "Okay no more two hand pushes, we'll stick to one hand pushes!'
     
    "Yes, if you push with two hands I'll fly into the tree, and then tumble down! And you'll be running away!"
     
    Me laughing, "Why would I run away J?"
     
    "Because my Mommy would be really really mad at you!" He tried to turn around and look at me, but I kept pushing him so he quickly grabbed back on to the swings.
     
    "Yeah she would be huh?"
     
    "Mmhmm and I'd be really sad." He made sure to say really, like this: rrrrreeeeeeeaaaaaaaallllllllyyyyyyyy
     
    "Why would you be sad J?"
     
    "Because Mommy would kill you, and I'd have no one to play with!"
     
    Got to love the kid, seriously, his Mom tried to pay me again for watching him, but I only had him for like an hour or two, and honestly, I think I should be paying her money, her son just keeps teaching me things every day, it's like he sees things in a totally different view then I do, which is great, I hope he never learns about all the crazy that's out there, at least not yet.
     
    Besides I think his random hugs, are payment enough, it reminds me of a certain someone who is always getting loving random hugs.
     
    Soooo, in other news, three more days.

    My Open Book

    By Meeko,

    So I was at work today, because its registration day, woohooo.
     
    So after going in early with Jamba Juice for everyone, I helped setup and then ended up outside, with my boss, and one of the other directors Cass. So Cass was outside smoking, so me and the boss was out there just chit chatting and watching as the line for registration grew and grew. So out of nowhere something slams into me, and wraps its arms around me. And he looks up at me like any six year old would with this, "I missed you," look and I can see his mom a couple of feet from us shaking her head at him, and the same time giving me this apologetic look, for her son running into me just to give me a hug. So I bent down picked him up and head straight for the trash can...
     
    No I didn't dump him into the trash; I'm not that mean shesh...
     
    So what did we learn today?
     
    Hugs from kids that are unexpected are hmm painful? Oh but in a good way...

    It's "Me" Time

    By Meeko,

    A lot has happened this week and I mean ALOT
     
    Yes I finally finished LG chapter 6 and almost chapter 7, 6 should be out sometimes this week, and then hopefully go back to weekly chapters, if all goes according to plan.
     
    In other news, I found out tonight for sure...
     
    In a week I'll be on a plane...
     
    Not going anywhere fancy, just to one of the other islands of Hawaii, of which I will spend 8 days, of basic training.
     
    No I did not join the National Guard, or the military, or anything of the sort, but I will be training with them for 8 days. So hopefully this will help me to drop the lazy crap I've been pulling for the past year and go back to my daily routine of working out etc. I've lost about 60 pounds already (A year or so ago) and I'm ready to lose the other 10 or so pounds of fat, and build the rest into muscles. So if I go mia next week don't worry, I'll only be gone for a week.
     
    I'm really looking forward to this, no computer, no TV, no beer/alcohol, no cell phone, no nothing but the sweat off my back and me and the "Officers" pushing me to my max, not letting me slack at all and giving me all kinds of shit, calling me all kinds of names, to just keep me motivated. So I've got a little under a week, to try and get myself somewhat ready for this, but I know whatever I do won't be enough to prepare me for what I know is going to happen, either way,
     
    Bring It On.
     
    P.S: Yes I know I'll most likely be getting fired from my newly attained waiter job, but that's okay, because taking care of my own health comes first, and this is just one of those things I NEED to do If I ever want to be proud of myself, love myself.

    Anthem Of Our Dying Day

    By Meeko,

    The stars will cry
    The blackest tears tonight
    And this is the moment that I live for
    I can smell the ocean air
    And here I am
    Pouring my heart onto these rooftops
    Just a ghost to the world
    That's exactly
    Exactly what I need
     
    From up here the city lights burn
    Like a thousand miles of fire
    And I'm here to sing this anthem
    Of our dying day
     
    Being sick is very overrated. LG is going to be late in posting this week. I just haven't had the time to write, with Tiff visiting and work being work, and then to top it all off being sick. I just don't understand what it is that's making me so sick; guess it doesn't help when I can't sleep either.
     
    Ever wish you could go back in time and change something, just that one thing you did that you know you're going to regret for the rest of your life but do it anyways? Well I don't. How else are we going to learn, right? But that's my problem right there. I'm not learning, it's just, I guess I care to much, and that is my problem. But who ever thought that would be my downfall was caring too much. Yeah go figure, they use you for what your good at, and they know that you have a heart and that they can step all over it, light it on fire, but you'd still be there for them.
     
    For a second I wish the tide
    Would swallow every inch of this city
    As you gasp for air tonight
    I'd scream this song right in your face
    If you were here
    I swear I won't miss a beat
    Cause I never
    Never have before
     
    Oh did I mention I dropped all of my classes at school? Let the two full time and one part time jobs begin...

    Shut Your f**ken Mouth!

    By Meeko,

    So it's been a while huh? Let's see.
     
    The first thing I did on my trip to California was head out to Lake Tahoe with the family. With lots of situations trying to keep us away. Like the car rental place that my cousin rented the car from 2 months ahead of time, and guess what? They rented us the wrong car; we asked for a 4 wheel drive, we got this mini van... So after a 2mile walk which took us about 45 mins in about 40? Degree weather we got back home, did more research and got a Toyota highlander the next day. It's a nice f**ken drive for a car, god I want one now...
     
    So once we made it to Lake Tahoe I hit the mountains with my cousin and her sister's husband, for some long overdue snowboarding. It was f**ken amazing. Words can't describe what I felt being on top that mountain with the wind in my face, the fresh powder snow falling down from above. Yeah it hurt like hell, but it was good pain. I can actually standup and stop myself from falling right back down. I can stand on the board without falling, as long as I don't try to turn or make a sudden stop. By the way, lots of hot guys, just saying hahaha I wouldn't have minded falling into some of those guys hahahaha.
     
    Anyways, after that adventure, I met up with Viv for some breakfast before heading to Vegas, which was freaking awesome. Viv is truly amazing, hands down. We ate at this place called Mimi's cafe and man they make good food, their muffins are HUGE!
     
    So after Vegas and this lame tour that I got dragged on where everyone spoke only Korean... and my Mom attempted to hook me up with this 15 year old girl it was time for the real fun to begin, Enter Steve, Viv, Rich and Viv's kids.
     
    So I'm sure you guys read all that happened already in Viv or Steve's blogs but here are some things they didn't blog about.
     
    1 Viv made me and Steve like 25 cookies each, and holy mother of god, they were DELICIOUS. If she sold these babies she'd be filthy rich, just saying.
     
    Disneyland was awesome, haven't been there since I was like 10? And let's just say there's some bad history there, needless to say Viv and Rich where standing guard ready to protect me from the evil men and woman wearing the Disney land costume suits!
     
    So after Disneyland like Viv said we went to the movies, but while we were waiting to see the movie, Viv and I were sitting back to back, singing and dancing with the music being played in the background. Oh and she wasn't lying about the whole titanic thing, I believe my exact words were, "If any girl tried to get on my piece of wood I'd kick them the hell off!" So yeah fair warning, MY WOOD.
     
    Hmm New Years Eve was spent, at Viv's house. First she made us some wonder food. It was really really nice of you Viv, and really good too. If I ever become a millionaire I'm totally hiring you to become my personal chief. After dinner we went and got yogurt, which I didn't get, so I just sat at the big boy table with Viv and Steve and watched them eat there's. Then to end the night, Viv bought this board game for us to play, and boy was it interested. Let's just say I ended up on the couch between Steve and Viv's daughters pass this tiny little block with my elbow

    Flower Girl?

    By Meeko,

    I'll be on a plane in 8 hours. God I finally get to see snow, this is by far the most important thing on my list of things to do, play in the snow... Maybe throw some snowballs at some random people. Mom's doing okay for now, her surgery's been put off till the 8th of Jan so I guess we'll worry about that when it happens.
     
    In other news, do you think I'm pretty? I only ask because a few days ago a bunch of my friends and I were talking about our other friends wedding that's coming up. So we were all deciding what we wanted to be, one of our friends is going to bring his band and play, the others are best men etc, well I wanted to be the flower girl.
     
    So we spent the next half hour debating how I'd be a better flower girl then some little sweet, angelic punk. I mean I'm pretty, I can strut down the isle tossing flowers, did I mention I'm pretty?
     
    So instead of being a flower girl I have to be one of the best men, but I don't care what anyone says, when that girl starts walking down the isle I'm totally going to rush her, steal her basket of flowers, push her aside and be the BEST DANG FLOWER GIRL YOU"LL EVER SEE

    So the working 40 hours + a week for the past four weeks even though I was only getting paid for about 10 of them has now come to a complete end. The Community Christmas celebration is over, the exam is over, meaning only one thing...
     
    10 more days
     
    10 more days until I find myself on a plane, awaiting what lies for me there.
     
    10 more days till I can sit back and enjoy some time without work, school nothing.
     
    10 more days until one of my long life dreams becomes a reality and I get to enjoy its pure heavenly snow-ish bliss
     
    But in those 10 days, I still am working 10 hours a week, I'm still having to study for finals, I'll still have to go to jury duty...
     
    In other news there was a big fashion show in Hawaii yesterday (Friday 5th) One of my friends who is a Fashion designer major luckily got in to be one of the 15 lucky contestants competing for all kinds of different prizes but most important the hopes and dreams of getting there work out and about and hopefully announced winner so they can move on to bigger and better things. Surprisingly enough the host and judge for this event was none other then Blayne Walsh from Project Runaway.
     
    So let's just say I've never seen project runaway nor have I ever seen Blayne, so you can guess my surprise when I see this very feminine looking guy wearing clothes just a little too tight and this huge lollypop he's apparently sucking on the entire time he was on stage (A good hour or two.)
     
    Anyways myself and all the friends that know our fashion designer friend were out and about in the one and only very strict dress code club in Hawaii. So when the show finally started god it was so much fun, I don't know when the last time I had that much fun was. I'm usually the quiet type when I'm surrounded by people I don't know, when I feel totally uncomfortable, but for some reason that wasn't the case last night. During the entire show about half of the club (Yes there was a fricken lot of us there, most of which I didn't even know but there for the same person) were cheering for my friend, and only in nature we helped. Blayne Walsh of course
    noticed and commented saying, "Someone's brought their posse here tonight." Haha! I guess it didn't help that once they announced the top 5, which our friend made it to, they proceeded to have each contestant talk a little about there design and what not. Yeah our friend was the only one who had to wait about a good two minutes before she got to talk, what? you just couldn't shut us up, even when they were about to announce the winner, I guess they didn't like us chanting our friends name which we did.
     
    Sadly she did not win, but she did lose to the only other outfit there we all figured would be her only competition, and we were right when she received second place. But it's all good, because she had a hell of a time, we all had a blast, and all in all it was worth dressing up and staying awake even with the work party being six hours later and a slight hangover to go with it.
     
     
     
    My whole plan was to try and keep myself so busy that the time would just fly by and the next thing I know I'd be on the plane and headed to LA. For the most part the plan worked, I spent all this extra time at work planning and getting everything ready for our big community party which we averaged about 500 or so people attended. The downfall was I started skipping out on classes the busier I got the more I said screw it and ditched class, it's a bad habit, I know... But some habits just don't die, they stick with you though thin and thick.
     
    Did I mention I haven

    I don't do it for the money.
     
    I don't do it for the benefits.
     
    I don't do it because I'm forced too.
     
    I do it because it's something I love.
     
    I do it because it's something I'm good at.
     
    I do it because even though I'm not working that day I still seem to be there just hanging out, because I love the place.
     
    I do it because I can wake up every morning and say I love my job, even at the hardest times, because it's me doing something I love. How many of you can say you do that? If you wake up every morning hating your job and you go to it being all miserable and feed up chances are your doing the job for all the wrong reasons. Sure maybe you need the money and you have no choice, but what's money used for really? To survive? Happiness? When your doing something you love, you don't need happiness, because you're already happy. When you do something you love, you find a way to survive, because you can't see yourself not being able to do what you love the next time, it just won't happen.
     
    I guess my point is, stop depriving yourself of the things you love, the things you enjoy most. So what if you have to work hard to attain it, isn't that kind of happiness worth it? I think so

    Cousin's in town for two weeks....
     
    I'm sleeping on the floor agian because the cousin kicked me out of my room.
     
    It's hot as hell,. no fan or a/c, doors and windows all shut....
     
    She's pissing me the f*** off.
     
    I'm going f***** crazy.
     
    I keep getting headaches because it's so f***** hot.
     
    I can't sleep at all.
     
    People step on me while I'm trying to sleep...
     
    And I still have another week to go with her.
     
    The BF hardly text's/calls me and I don't think this relationship is going anywhere.
     
    I can't hang out with my friends or the BF becuase the cousin throws a fit and goes crazy when I don't do whatever she wants me to....
     
    I've been going to work a lot more then I should, because it's the only way I can get out of the house....
     
    Help?

    This past few weeks have been very crazy... So Today was our famous Family Night we do every year for the parent's. Each of our groups do a dance for their parent's, then as an entire group we all dance together. Let's just say the thing takes a LOT more time to prepare and get everything ready, then it lasts itself. We spent the last two weeks, teaching our kids their dances, having them practice hard, then we had to figure out a little skit, make our 7x10 ft posters for each group, and still be able to make and teach the lessons we do daily...
     
    Let's just say putting in 14 hour days at work was getting a tad old. But it's all done, it's over, finished, and god dang am I proud of my kids... They rocked tonight, and every single one of them danced with their hearts, sure a lot of them were a bit nervous, heck If I was 9-10 and I had to dance in front of over 400 people I would be too! But they did it, our big bosses were impressed our boss was happy and so were we. I'm so proud of my kids, that I can't sleep. This is one of those moments, that you know you'll remember for the rest of your life.
     
    So two more weeks and the entire summer program is over. Has it been 6 weeks already? God... Guessing the saying really is true, Time fly's by when you're having fun.
     
    P.S: Someone got a rose today =OOOD Did I mention today was a great day? Sigh I want today to be like a song on my I pod, stuck on repeat forever and ever.
     
    Here's my poster that I am very proud of!

    Dance Dance Dance!

    By Meeko,

    Mike dances???
     
    Holy shit...
     
    Someone is breaking my shell and I don't know who it is but I'm angry...
     
    The shell I've worked 20 LONG AND HARD years to form. The shell that no man or woman could ever break. The shell that kept me in my comfort zone no matter how much deep down inside I wanted to branch out. The shell that held me back all these years from the things I enjoy, for the things I keep hidden for the things that make me, well me. and just like that BROKEN!
     
    I go to work, the radio is booming I end up dancing, kids watch me, I end up dancing with them and they all think I'm nut's. I mean I would to. Since when the f**K does Mr. Michael dance? All he ever does is sit in the corner and yell at everyone. I bet everyone thought I didn't even know how to dance, shit I thought I didn't know how to dance... But I'm having fun, their having fun... so what's wrong with this? Besides me looking like a totally moron nothing, because I'm willing to keep those priceless smiles on all 200 of those innocent faces, that's what I love! And Proudly, I'm okay with this... I'm finally breaking out, and I'm scared at what I might do next...
     
    *GASP*
     
    I might start calling people things like HONEY, or SWEETHEART!
     
    God, I need some pills and a bed...
     
     
     
    Who knows I may just go ball to the walls and fully out myself...
     
     
     
    Yeah if you believed that for even a second I think your the one's needing those pills.

    Forever...

    By Meeko,

    Have you ever had a dream you would give anything for, to never end? A dream that's so powerful you remember it for days, weeks, one that bothers you so much all you can do is think about it non stop. :wacko:
     
    What about a song, that has so much meaning, a lot of people wouldn't understand, but to you it's like a light bulb just lit up! A song that you must have listened to for the past 24 hours straight, and no matter how much you listen to it you just can't seem to get sick of it, because it's just that good.
     
    But more about this dream...
     
    So there I am in a crowded club? with a bunch of other people, nun of who I recognized. So I'm standing in the middle of this crowd, watching the emotions and expressions of everyone around me, from anger to not giving a care to the world and dancing there asses off, to sadness, to having a great time. I'm standing there all alone and I begin to panic, and wonder what all these people would think of me, say about me, I'm always wondering what others think of me, how they feel about me. So many different feelings, so many different people...
     
    All of a sudden everyone is gone, everything is gone... I'm alone in an empty room with no lights, no people, no sound. But then I'm no longer alone, Just the two of us, and he's right in front of me, holding his hand out for me to grab, and I do.
     
    And then we're back at the club, but this time he's with me, his arms gently around my waist and we're swaying back and forth to the music... Everyone turns to watch us, but I no longer care, I don't even bother to look at them, instead I buried my face into his shoulder, and the music gets louder and louder, I close my eyes, and all I know is that he's with me and we're dancing together, to my song, and I never want him to let go, I don't want the music to stop, I just want to keep it going, forever.

    And here I am, with the song on repeat, the dream fresh in my mind, and I still don't want it to end, because I know as soon as it ends, I return to reality where nothing's changed, nothing's different. I still worry, I still care, I'm still alone... :wacko:

    So after a long conversation with Rayna about an incident at my working place I started thinking...
    (I know, I know it's a miracle right?)
     
    I guess I should start off by explaining what happened then?
     
    So If you didn't already know, one of my jobs involves working with kids, teaching classes etc doing the afternoon. Well during the evenings we have groups who come in and use our facilities, so I pretty much hang out in the office and do some fileing/paperwork and make sure that everyone using our buildings are taken cared of etc. So a typical day for me is getting there around 2:00pm, and leaving at about 9:00pm give or take a few.
     
    Anyway like I said it was a typical day, I had a club meeting going on upstairs and another group meeting downstairs. So at about 8:45pm I heard a loud commotion going on outside, and as I left my building to go see what it was about the club that was meeting upstairs were on their way out as well, so when we got outside there was this huge fight going on in the parking lot, so anyway long story short, there was a stabbing that happened. Luckily everyone was caught and taken to jail, but all of this literally scared the shit out of me. We found the guy who stabbed some local guy hiding in the bushes just a few feet from my building!
     
    And honestly, I can't say this kind of shit doesn't happen often because sadly it does. It's just the first time it's been this bad and I had to deal with it. But all of it happened so fast it was like I was watching a movie. I was ready to leave, then BAM! :2hands:
     
    But the part that really got me was, when one cop arrived the guys who did the stabbing ran. So when I was ready to leave I noticed the cop talking to the local guys and I informed him the other group of kids were indeed still in the park. I guess they all figured they just left or something? So first he looks at me like who are you? so I told him and within seconds after calling for backup and I mean seconds, it was no longer just 1 cop car. Cars flew in the front entrance and up the ramp to our buildings so fast I cringed thinking they were going to slam into one of our buildings. But it was just insane at how fast and how many cars flew in right as he called for backup.
     
    So continuing they caught 3 guys, and thinking that was all of them, told me I could go back in and double check that all my buildings and everything were locked and not damaged. So as I preceded to I passed by these bushes across for my building and in doing so trigger a light that turns on from movement, let's just say the 3 cops who were behind me that I did not see rushed through me (One slightly hitting me) and into the bushes screaming with there guns out and about. Knowing that the guy was going to run onto the road, I ran back to the parking lot where the other officers were and screamed "There running across the street!" Never have I ever seen someone get tackled to the ground so hard, so rough before... It sent chills down my spine, I for one did not want to be that guy in the morning! hahaha
     
    So ending this story now I didn't get home till about 10:30 an extra 2 hours almost!
     
    This park was the same place I spent most of my past 15 years (been going there since I was 5) and it's sad to say that times have really changed, and not for the better at all. And I really wonder If I should keep doing what I'm doing, I mean hell I could have been very well the guy who had been stabbed and yes I know, If it was meant to happen it would of happened. I also know that these kinds of things can happen anywhere and I can't shelter myself from it, but how smart is it to work in a known danger zone at those hours of the night?
     
    And even if I decided to quit can I really do that? I have to admit the park has changed me a lot, it's changed my views on things the way I interact with others, and it's brought me a lot of happiness not to mention new friends. I feel like the park is a big part of my life these days, so how do you go about destroying all of that based on one incident?
     
    Not to mention I feel I bring a big part to the park as well. Me and my new boss are planning so much more then we already do for the park, mostly for the kids and teens. So is it right for me to abandon all of them and her just because I

    Panic At The Disco's, That Green Gentleman (Things Have Changed)
    Things are shaping up to be pretty odd.
    Little deaths in musical beds.
    So it seems I'm someone I've never met.
     
    You will only hear these elegant crimes,
    Fall on your ears from criminal dimes.
    They spill unfound from a pretty mouth.
     
    everybody gets there and everybody gets their way.
    I never said I missed her when everybody kissed her,
    Now I'm the only one to blame.
     
    Things have changed for me, and that's okay.
    I feel the same, I'm on my way, and I say.
     
    I want to go where everyone goes,
    I want to know what everyone knows
    I want to go where everyone feels the same
     
    I never said I'd leave the city,
    I never said I'd leave this town.
    A falling out we won't tiptoe about.
     
    So let me start off my saying Viv is a goddess... (I bet you're thinking DUH!)
    Now only did she advise me to check out Panic At The Disco's new album, we've both decided to kidnap Brendon Urie(Lead Singer of PATD) and drool and giggle over him for hours and hours...
    Okay maybe only I though of it, but I'm sure once I do it Viv would convince me to share. '
    But I refuse, he's MINE!
     
     
     
    No but really, I spent majority of today's holiday, listening to their new album that I just bought (Again Viv's fault!!!) and I must say, their music is really... odd? But a good kind of odd. First time in ages I've listened to a cd and could honestly say I liked at least 10 of the songs on it...
     
    Two more months and my life makes another big turn. Surprised? I wouldn't be...
    I've moved into three different houses in the past 8 month's and, woohoo I'm moving again in two months. Still going to be in Hawaii, just in a different part.
     
    So the day after I'm suppose to move into my new place, I start training and classes for the Summer Fun job. which is going to be a bitch, because I really won't have time to finish up whatever moving I'd need to do that I couldn't do the prior day. But I
