warped

this is my offial 101 post. i wish i would have noticed 100 but oh well i'm a little late.
anywho
yesterday was pretty much one of the best days of my life
after two terrible years, i finally got to go to van's warped tour in milwaukee, wisconsin. and oh my dear lord i could cry it was that amazing. list of bands we saw: underoath, a day to remember, attack attack!, the devil wears prada, cash cash, p.o.s., chiodos, aiden, and 3oh!3. that's only 9 bands out of the 69 that were there haha. i also got a chance to hear a bit of there for tomorrow, tv/tv, gallows, and escape the fate. i swear to god i almost died during the underoath concert. it was the first one we went to at like 11:15 in the morning. yeah, nothing like death that early =] right when the concert started, all the people from behind us rushed forward and shoved us into the center. it sucked ass there. first, my shoe fucking fell off and got trampled 5 feet in front of my which forced me more into the center. then, there were kids smoking pot which i thought was hilarious. i almost died of a panic attack because i literally cannot stand that many people being close to me. luckily, we pulled out and everything was great...til it started to rain haha god loves us. underoath sounds the same in concert as they do on the cds and it was the greatest experience ever.

a day to remember would have been just as good, if i could have seen the fucking concert. apparently, only tall people like them. thank god for boyfriends who let their girlfriends sit on the shoulders for a few songs. the best part of that show was watching some drunk kid climb a fence then plinko down some bleachers that were stacked on the other side XD i felt bad but hey, don't be dumb kids. also, some kid with a broken arm was like shoving people in a mosh pit then he got elbowed in the eye and the entire thing went bloodshot. it was gross but interesting. i loved that show A LOT.

attack attack! and the devil wears prada were both good but i don't know their music a lot and we left about halfway through each show so we could see other ones. cash cash, those poor boys have an amazing cd but they suck live. i think they were too focused on hyping the crowd of mostly girls. p.o.s. is probaly the most amazing guy in the entire universe. he was the only black rapper there but he made up for it by literally going into the crowd and singing. plus. his songs are so real and meaningful. PLUS PLUS! i saw him leaving the marcus amphitheater and he totally stopped to sign jordan's poster, austin's poster, and my shoe (the exact one i had almost lost like 4 hours priar).

craigery owens is the sexiest man in the entire universe, maybe. he's an angel who can blast the craziest fucking scream everrr. i wanna fuck him a million times. basically, the chiodos set was top fucking notch. they broke my chemical romances' record of 60 people crowd surfing in one minute which i laughed at. those poor security gaurds. aiden, aiden, aiden. the band i was thinking about all day. the band i would die for. the band i actually cried for. the band who got stuck on the smallest stage there but had a gnarly sized crowd. i was about 3 or 4 feet away from the stage. i almost touched wiL francis. i sung to every song. did i mention i cried? i got spit on by the guitar player...multiple times and didn't want to wash it off this morning haha. i cried. i could have gotten to meet the band but noooo austin wanted to hurry up and meet up with jordan and jasmine who went to go see forever the sickest kids. that was a joke because apparently there were so many kids there that they couldn't even get into the marcus amphitheater. lmao. anywho, i sacrificed seeing ftsk for the third time just so i could see aiden but it was worth it. and even though we ditched on meeting the band, that's when we got to meet p.o.s. so i guess it's okay.

the last band we saw was 3oh!3 and in all honesty, i would have rather seen madina lake. 3oh!3 played on the main stage and there were so many people there it was crazy. prolly everyone in the entire state and then some were there. also, they aren't the best live...i'm sorry 3oh!3, i love you still.

so yeah. best day of my life. i still can't believe i went. it was yesterday but it seems like it was a month ago. it all went by so fast and i feel like i'm going to forget it. i'm tired as fuck now. totally beat. the ride home was absolutely terrible XD we were all kinda hyper. good thing for jasmine's mom, she's mostly deaf.

i wanna rewind and do it again

the distance grows as the ground approaches

yesterday, i went to the mall with my mom, my boyfriend, and his mom. they had this store called furry babies. i thought it was like a stuffed animal place but when we walked past it had puppies! in cribs!! not from puppy mills!!! i got to hold a miniature husky. she fell asleep in my arms and it broke my heart that i couldn't take her home. i'm definitely going to get a husky when i get older. i'm gonna give it a badass vampire name haha. don't ask. i also want a bulldog named Chub Chub. and a mutt =] and a kitty named Olysaurus. awww animals are cute.

the only thing that sucked about the mall was that i didn't have any money. all i had was 17 dollars in quarters that skyler gave me to buy him gauges. boy, the guy at hot topic, chase, really loved that. literally, he was laughing the whole time. i love people that work there.

sooooo, this week is going to be THEEE most kickass week ever known to mankind. first off, i'm going to be chilling with the girls at the fair, riding rides for a flat fee of 25 dollars =] then i'm also gonna see some of my girlies at my mom's company picnic. may not seem like fun but it really is. also, the best news EVERRR, i'm going to warped tour!!!!!! ahhh!! so, originally, austin's mom was supposed to take us but then she got a new job and had to do training that day so i was bummed as fucking bum fuck egypt. basically, i was not a happy camper. however, two days ago this amazing girl named jasmine who is the girlfriend of this amazing boy named jordan offered to let me and austin come with them to warped tour since her mom was driving and they had two extra seats. yay! austin's mom bought tickets and we are going this thursday!!! god, i've been waiting three years for this =] i swear i'm going to cry for days when i see aiden. no syke.

ahhh i've been alright lately. my three photography projects got first place. one was up for a higher award along with 134 other projects. sadly, it didn't get anything. but, my two drawings also got first place and one of those is up for a higher award. i shall have to see soon what it gets. i also have to wait and see what my curtains and popcan candle holder get.

fair is probably one of my favorite times of the year. yet, it is also a sign that summer is wrapping up. i just need to make the most of the time that is left.

tahdah!

like i said, there were 70 pictures to choose from. this is only 15. my second attempt at photography. tell me what you think?

happy pants

so i recently got my two photography projects done =] i did one at olbrich botanical gardens in madtown. i think i got some pretty alright flower shots. i need to narrow that down to five pics. also, i did my portrait project with austin ^_^ at riverside park by my house. we took them right by the river. i need to pick my favorite one of those. all together, i took 70 pictures. a holy fucking lot of them. i'm only going to post my faves on here sometime soon cuz i am really proud of them. as far as my drawing goes, don't expect to be seeing any of that on here. i wish drawing was as fast as taking pictures. but whatever.

on another note, i'm not so stressed out about stuff anymore. skyler, kinda annoying after a while. candice, just another drama queen who can say whatever she wants. and i barely remember what else was bothering me. also, the doctor gave me some acid reflux pills that are totally helping. let's just hope i don't gain weight from all this eating.

so last week, i hung out with austin for like 4 days straight. it was kinda amazing. tonight, i'm going to see west side story with my bestie, katie. a shit ton of people i know are in it. be sure to look for my pictures soon. please tell me what you think. =] that's all for now. i don't actually have any really big stories. that's what happens in the summer. toodles.
