I feel like my entire life is a big secret that no one can know about except those that are already involved in it and already know about it. So on that note, I guess I will probably never write in here. But maybe I will if I ever really need to write. And I will let all you crazy people know about all the music events coming up at DePaul in here. |

today is my first day at Local 101. I don't know what I have to do, but my boss is pretty much my friend. He used to intern at the Metro, and now he hosts Local 101. Hopefully this will be a lot better than interning at Q101 in general. I'm sure it will be though, and it's a lot less committment, just Sundays from like 9-11ish or something. Not bad at all. I guess I am excited. I am more excited to see my family today at dinner. We all haven't been together in awhile. I miss home and family. I need to get my nose pierced pronto. Maybe tomorrow? I also need straight A's...so I should probably keep up with my readings.
Serena and I are going to try to go to Rome fall oh six. If not, or after if we do, Serena, Vicki, and I are moving to Wicker Park....Damen stop off the blue line. Yaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I cannot wait. I love you.

stop yelling at your parents! you barely talk to them, and when you do you just fight. Just explain nicely how they are wrong and you are right. |

So as many cute guys as I have gotten to know in the past few months, I still like the same guy who I never thought I'd go for. It's different this time around because he doesnt like me anymore... i dont think. It's perfect. My challenge....the only thing that was missing from the first time around. |

I have a lot of stress right now: I need to find a band or something to do with 45 grand for DePaul, and soon; I need to lose oh I don't know 10-15 pounds soon; I need to catch up on my reading and actually know what people are talking about in class; I need to not be so ugly; I need to stop having anxiety about everything that goes on in my life. Everyone tells me to relax, relax, relax amy relax. But I just can't. I found something new, but it's still not the same. I can't wait until Serena turns 21 so we can go to new bars...except U of I tried to take away my fake, so maybe it won't work in chicago either. In that case, I can't wait until I turn 21. I am accepting things more and more. I just don't understand why everyone is sad and depressed. Why is it so hard to be happy? It is just this society? This city? This nation? Or is it everywhere? Is everyone not happy? I will probably never know. |

I like people who are as fucked up as i am.
So I guess we kind of already made a new group of friends. They are the columbia crew. Everyone is awesome and is pretty much like us. haha. =) We listen to the same music, like the same movies, get drunk, and are equally screwed up. This is perfect. I am really happy right now.
Chris and I are talking again. I think I will always care about him no matter what happens between us. |

William really likes this girl and I'm sure she likes him too. It's the cutest thing because william is the most innocent boy. And this is coming from me! I've been told that I am really innocent and i'm sure I am innocent, but william is just so innocent. I really hope this girl likes him back because William is honestly the NICEST guy ever. He is just one of those people that you know would never even consider cheating on his girlfriend, or curse at her, or treat her like shit. William is ideal in so many ways. I remember freshmen year serena and I thought william was super hot and we chased and ran after him so we could talk to him. I remember on the first day we met him I asked him to be my best friend and he said yes. I knew right then that it was going to be a good year. And it was a good year. Serena, William, Ian, and I were pretty much the best of friends for awhile freshmen year. Then william told me he liked me and I said I couldnt go out with him. We got into a fight, and I don't know what it was even about. What's weird is that in a few year I'll forget what I fought with anyone about. It's so strange how things seem like the biggest deal at one point in time and just a few days, weeks, or months later you can't even remember what happened, which makes it have no meaning at all. I really hate fighting with people. I really hate it when people hate me. I really hate complaining and making people sad. I hate when anyone is sad.
Like I still remember at some point freshmen year I was on the el coming back from class at the loop, and I remember this guy sitting across from me looking down at the floor, changing the cd in his discman. I usually don't even look at people on the el. I am the girl who looks out the window and stares at one of the advertisment signs the entire way, just to avoid eye contact. But this guy struck me. It wasn't like he was hot or anything. He was just particularly sad. And I don't know I just could tell this guy was really hurt and I couldn't take my eyes off of him. I wanted to ask him what was wrong and tell him don't worry everything was going to be okay. By the time we came to the fullerton stop he had a tear roll down his face. I was about to cry and I just couldn't sit there and watch him cry. I don't know why I felt so emotional towards him, especially with how desensitized most of us are to just about every incident that happens in this world. But I didn't do anything; I mean, I didn't say anything to him. I just felt really sad and wanted to hold his hand and hug him and tell him everything is going to be okay. I remember his face clearly and I hope everything is okay now. I really do.
A lot of people I trusted last year I can't trust this year. Everything is different. But it doesn't make me sad at all. It's just life. People are always coming and going. People are always getting screwed. I have the people I can trust. I am enjoying the ambiguity of this year. I never know what I am going to do everyday, but somehow there is always something new and different to do. I like hanging out with different people with the same two people by my side most of the time. I can't help but say that I really love my life right now. It's going to be okay. Don't worry. |

Biggest mental breakdown ever. And of course, it was at warped.
Now I am off to do Lollapalooza, but with an entirely new outlook.
It's honestly so weird to find out the people you least expect to care about you and who you don't talk to for awhile are the ones who do care. Thank you my dear.
It's also weird that guys think you are really pretty when you are the most depressed. This world is crazy. |

They added the misfits!!!
Anyways, so we were going to stay in a nice hotel that was 13 miles away from the venue, until we found out that you have to be 21 to register etc etc. So we cancelled those reservations, and got reservations at the hotel where you only have to be 18 to register and that is only 1 MILE AWAY FROM THE VENUE!!! boo yah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Then just now, I called the Marriott and asked if there was a train near by.
And indeed, there is a train that takes 3 minutes to drive to (meaning we can just walk it)...that goes to NEW YORK CITY (my favorite city). And trains run until like 2 in the morning.
So thus far, our plans are:
August 18th- leave at 3am from the VAS apartment and make our way to NJ. (12 hours and 17 minutes, plus breaks--so 14 hours) So get there by 5pm, 6pm their time. Then take the train to New York and explore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
August 19th- make drinking friends and drink and hit up the venue until late.
party.
August 20th- make drinking friends and drink and hit up the venue until late.
party.
August 21st- make drinking friends and drink and hit up the venue until late.
party.
August 22nd- come home, probbaly leave around 10 or 11, since that is checkout time.
Also...since our hotel doesnt have a swimming pool, we would like to make friends who are staying at a hotel with a swimming pool so we can go swimming. I havent been in a pool since last summer and I am missing it.
BRING ME AUGUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will be living with my best friends and going on the best road trip ever with them. |

Today Vicki and I went shopping. We got an awesome record player/8 track system with speakers and all. We bought some 8 tracks, and we are taking all our parents records. Our apartment is going to be amazing come fall.
She also found a 103 yr old antique dresser that is a cherry oak and has skeleton key holes for each drawer. It is amazing and I would be buying it if vicki wasn't buying it.
I found AN AMAZING old antiqueish Audrey Hepburn funeral hat. The lady still had the hat box. It reminds me of Breakfast at Tiffanys. It is the coolest thing I own now. I don't know how often I will wear it, but I just love it.
I also found an old mini popcorn machine maker, and we love popcorn! So this will be placed in the VAS's kitchen. And, trust me, it still works!
Old things are my favorite.
Contemporary things I bought included a Sox frame thing for my brother since he is obsessed with them. How and why? I don't know. but they are better than the cubs!
And I found those mug type things that starbucks always have, but these have PENGUINS on it! So i bought three--one for the each of VAS, so we can all cuddle together and drink hot chocolate out of it during the cold winter. I really am weird. I know.
vicki gave me an umbrella so I can use it when I walk around in the sun. It is super beautiful and I think I will use it wherever I go. I have gotten really horribly dark so far this summer. I need it to go away pronto.
Anyways, I think I should go shower. We had a welcome back party for my brother last night, and tonight Robyn is having a party. VAS will be attending. It is like the one year reunion from when Vicki and I started becoming better friends again since junior high. And now we're living together!! Alright, peace. |

I LOVED Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Tim Burton is my hero. Johnny Depp rules. The movie is actually pretty funny, yet morbid. Just remember, it is not a remake of the movie, but the book!!!!
There is a slight twist to it, but I like it nonetheless.
Other than that: I can't wait for vicki to move in............. |

+++So my parents hired a maid. Every time I come home my parents aren't home and I noticed our house was spotless every single time I am at home, and my mom just told me they hired a maid. She can't speak english, so our lawn guy is the interpreter...sometimes life is just funny like that.
+++So last night was Vicki's birthday. I was so gone. I think that is the effect circle of death has on people. Clothes were taken off, mainly by the guys though..and vicki! haha. I hope she had fun! The best part of the party was when chris came and layed down with me for a little bit. I miss him. Ann came for a little while!!!! It was nice seeing her again after seeing her every single day to like once every two weeks. I had a lot of fun, and hope everyone else did too.
+++I quit Brilliante Records today because it was just too much for me. They are really unorganized and when I was supposed to do things, I did it wrong because they didn't explain it well enough, and totally wasted my time! Too bad everyone there is really really nice and I am sad it came down to this, but you gotta do what you gotta do. So now I officially have thursdays off...thank god!
+++The state's attorneys office internship is ending july 29th!! (my sisters birthday), but I guess I really end on july 27th since I don't work thursday or fridays. It's soon!!!!!!!!!!!! Come to me august!
So my parents want the family to go to Canada to go visit family, and I agreed as long as my parents dish out money for our trip to HELLFEST OH FIVE!!!!!!! they said yes sure thing.
+++August 19th, 20th, 21st is Hellfest in New Jersey. Who wants to go!??????
We will leave on august 18th, spend the four nights, and come back on the 22nd at night. There are awesome bands playing and its new jersey and tickets are only 100 for the three days. And no, Taking Back Sunday IS NOT PLAYING HELLFEST, it was just a joke. and maybe we can make a detour to new york!!! =)
if anyone wants to go with us (vicki, serena, amy) let one of us know!
+++Serena comes home from mexico today!!!! I've missed her, even though this week went by super fast. In fact, summer is going by way too fast. Too bad serena leaves to michigan on friday. So basically we have tomorrow.
+++Leases need to be signed asap for VAS. It sucks that we all cant meet at ICM properties at the same time because all three of us are really really busy girls. I am so excited for august to come and start this year off right! But I guess our apartment is technically on the market right now until we sign the lease because we got a notice like 2 months ago asking if we wanted to renew our lease...but ya we never got it since our mail system blows and the mail is just all over the ground...
+++I haven't hung out with jaime yet, but maybe sometime soon? He is a very interesting and intriguing guy. We will see what happens. But I guess I am not even really looking for a boyfriend or a guy in that way right now. But i definitely do want to be friends with this dude.
+++I havent even read one book yet since I've been so busy. But I do plan on reading at least 3 particular books (he's just not into you, the stranger, get off the van). I bet all three books are one day readers, so hopefully I can read those soon.
+++I haven't had enough time to myself this summer, but I guess it's good in a way so I don't think too much. When I think too much, i get really sad.
+++Finally, I really need to work out. I only work out when I'm at home because unfortunately we dont have exercise machines at the ASA house. Man, it's really quite sad that asa isnt asa. Well I mean we are ASA, but like it's not the asa house anymore. What the heck. I don't like that.
+++my sister is having a birthday party on july 30th at her apartment. it's like a 4 kegger, 200 people party. so if anyone wants to come, let me know.
+++okay i am done now.
+++haha, just kidding! shows I am going to: hmmmmmmmmmmm.....
the exit- metro july sometime
le tigre- the vic? august 10th
hot hot heat- metro i dont know when
hopefully lollapalooza
maybe warped
yes, the show list has gone down dramatically because I am too busy to go to shows! I can't believe I just said that. Okay now I really am done.
xo.
