I've never had to knock on wood, but I know someone who has

It's 10:40,
I leave in an hour and 20 minutes.
I'm done packing and getting ready, and doing all my morning stuff.
So what now?
I downloaded a bunch of old Mighty Mighty Bosstones.

Here are the exact directions my sister gave me,
"1 - When you go through Beaufort on 21, merge right on 17 NORTH (where that gas station bldg is on the corner, you said you know where this is)

2 - Stay going straight for about 25-30 min. WATCH YOUR SPEED!!!!

3 - See the nasty Church's Chicken/Gas station. Stay in your RIGHT LANE. (This is still 17-N)

4 - Straight for about 25-30 min.

5 - When you pass a sign for 526, pass that exit, immediately look out for a McDonald's on your LEFT. TURN LEFT at that LIGHT (Skylark Rd.) I will meet you there!"

everything makes sense except for number 5.
but it doesn't seem too hard, right?
I hope I get a lot of texts this weekend, I wont be on the internet much.
Good thing is it's supposed to be warm today and tomorrow, so maybe my sister and I can go to Folly Beach (:
I love Folly!
I used to boogie-board there before I could somewhat surf..
I don't know if you guys saw my surfing pictures from last summer, hah!
But I wanna take it up again this summer, I mean why not? I could learn more, and I was good at it last year so that means I will be better this year, especially from snowboarding this month.
Ahh, I just can't wait for warm weather in general! It's weird, towards fall I was somewhat looking forward to winter, just because, change is always glamorous to the mind. But when I finally got into winter again...I realized it wasn't what I wanted. Summer was what I really wanted, this whole time. Sure winter includes amazing clothing, snow activities, and fires and it may seem appealing, but it's really just cold and the same as it was last year.
Oh well, winter wasn't so bad.
Christmas and stuff is always fun :D

Anyways, I really came onto blogspot today with nothing to blog about so my little rant on how I like weather probably bored you to tears, so sorry! These will get more interesting one of these days..
When I actually think of neat things to say!
Wish me a safe trip to Charleston! It's the farthest I've gone yet.
Bye.

So why don't we go somewhere only we know?

Listening to Keane is one of those things where you either feel really gay listening to it, or really serene.

Today was really extremely long..
and I could sit here and complain about some ridiculous remark that either Davis did or didn't say, but.
Why care, really? The people I'm closest to know it never happened so why care about people who don't matter?
that's all I have to say on that subject.

I've had the worst splitting headache for the last three days, in like the same spot. No matter what types of headache medicine I take or how much of it I take, it doesn't go away.
And I feel really sick.
Who knows, it could just be from stress.
I don't know why, last night I was pretty mellow.
Terry if you're reading this, I'm sorry about the prom fiasco. I'm going to say the motherly thing, "Anyone would be lucky to go to the prom with you, you handsome devil ;)"
Sorry we couldn't hang out today either, Wednesday is usually my day with Bridget...kind of.

Bridget and I were going to go to Wild Wings, but beforehand we decided we could use a nice refreshing work out. So we get our work out clothes on and head to the gym. It was too late to really go to wild wings and meet up with everyone, so we just went to Sunset Pizzeria by ourselves, which was nice. Haha, until these two sick like 30 year old men come up and go, "so ladies...anything we can get ya?" with these sick grins and staring at us. And I'm just like...what? Are these waiters or something? hahaha, so I actually look down at my cup to see if I needed a refill but when I looked up I could tell...they did NOT work here. and then we were just like, NO no, no. we're fine.
They left us alone after that.
I mean the pizzeria, is basically half a bar.
so, they were probably way past sober. Nonetheless, it was gross.

Anypants, I hope I feel better soon :(
'specially since I'm going to Charleston this weekend to visit my sister :]
I get to drive all by myself, how much fun. I'm going to get so lost, I barely know how to get to Savannah without getting confused, I have to meet her in West Ashley and I don't even know where that is.

Download, "Kicking Your Crosses Down" by Circa Survive.
It's my favorite song of the week, most played on Itunes recently it says.

'If I weren't married to the streets, it'd be to you.'

First off, I saw an interesting video of Lindsay Lohan from the Oscars sunday..
Does she not act a little high here?


Right.
Anyways. Nothing bothers me anymore, I think it's great.
Except the fact that I feel cold all the time now, what's up with that? I need to change the heat settings in the upstairs I guess.
Right now, I'm watching Caddshack (: Classic Chevy Chase film, if you ask me.
Also I'm driving up to Charleston this weekened! I love Chucktowwwwn.

I had intensely weird dreams last night... first I kept dreaming of this skateboarding dog, who was better than I was. (It was weird seeing as I don't skateboard..)
and then, there was this snowboarding competition, except some people snowboarded on mats, and all this weird shit? Mostly everyone I knew was competing, but this white guy with an afro won. I came in second :]
I had a lot of other weird dreams too but they aren't worth mentioning.
I'm so excited to get free pancakes today! Ihop is God, I swear it. With how bad the economy is, it's pretty neat how they are able to batch up all these free pancakes.

I think I have matured a lot since last weekend, and only because of certain awkward situations I was in. I could have made a mess of it, said mean things, but I just said mmm forget it! & I had lots of fun. This wouldn't make sense at all unless I told you the whole story, but trust me, it's a good one.
Not just that either, I just stopped caring about people who are obviously no good for me, (no one specific, I actually have a few people in mind) and I'm better than that.
So it's just been a few days full of realizations and turn outs.

And with you...I'm not sure if I'm ready to start anything yet..
It's too soon, and you are really neat but we just met and I'm just not ready.
I don't want to lead you on either and I know that you really like me,
but why move so fast?

BTW Haley and I...

are so getting free pancakes tomorrow (:

I gaurantee that you wake up in a better place and in a better time.

So like Aaron said, the new Donnie Darko is coming out. S Darko, it's called.
I don't know if it looks good, I dont think Donnie Darko is a movie to make a sequel to, one of those that you should leave as it is.
Thoughts?



So my car is ready, I just wasn't able to pick it up today because I was out too long, and the shop was closed by the time I got back into Bluffton.
I'm guessing that tomorrow I will just go with my dad to work & swing by and get it. It's also by Breakthrough gym, so I'll work out too.
It's funny how I can do things completely unhealthy and not good for me one day yet spend the whole next day trying to all this healthy shit.
I'm just so incredibly glad that my car is done :)


You know what? I think I want to go to the gym everyday this week.
Is that bad though? I don't want to over work my body or anything, or run too much on the treadmill, haha.
Nooo, I think it should be fine.
I know I'm always talking about how basically awful my week has been, and believe me it wasn't that great.
But when I think about it...
Ever since Wednesday or Thursday I really haven't stayed at home, I'm always out and actually having more of a life. I need to stop complaining and realize, that things really are going good. I just complain about it when I'm bored and everyone is away at public school.
Really, I'm happy, I am...

ew.

My dad is having sex in the room below me again, and I can't stand hearing...it.
It makes my stomach twist in knots, not that my stomach isn't twisted enough.
I just kinda wish I had no worries right now, this week was a never-ending catastrophe.
One thing after another, I wonder, why does life do that to you?
It's like...it tricks you into thinking everything is fine and going a-okay, then everything just kind of fucks you. All at once. I kind of liked my good streak of days.
But nooooooo, those never last do they?
I think things will get better though, especially since I get my car back tomorrow. I'll feel a little more free and just clear my head, it's what I need.

And it's not that I dislike you, I dislike the things you do sometimes. It fucks me up a little once in a while, but I get over it.
Just call it what it was and we both know what it really was. Whatever, that's how you obviously wanted it/me. But I guess we can be friends, I don't really care.

Even though this weekend was a blur and fast as hell, I really enjoy you guys...
a neat group of kids, just wish we all met sooner, instead of like. Now.
Bah...
goodnight.

"Ahh, Melanie Perez, you're KILLING me!"

So I have probably been at my house approximately one hour this whole weekend. I'm undoubtedly tired, and I'm running out about a few hours or less of sleep.
Yesterday I got home, pretty sleepy and just blah. But I STILL wanted to get out of the house.
I just can't sit and have time to think right now because, with everything going on, I'll go insaaane.
So I went to lunch with Bridget, and then we went to see "He's just not that into you"

I didn't exactly want to watch that because I thought it was going to be gay as hell judging by the commercials, but of course it made me tear up at the end. I wasn't in an appropriate state to watch that kind of movie. It's okay though, I enjoyed it for the most part. So we went to Cheeburger after and shared a Mud-Pie milkshake. Whats your favorite milkshake there?
Anypants, we went to her mom's and made plans for the night. We decided to go to the wrestling match at Bluffton High, Haley took us and we met up with Evan and them.
Then we went back to Evan's & Tony met up with us. We went to LaHa!
Then Bridgets mom said we had to be home at 11 that night, :T so we went home on time.
But a couple hours gone by and Tony picked us up, and we went through the window and I got a really bad cut on my leg from getting out of there. So we went to his house and basically stayed the night there with Evan and them and all hung out, and.
chilled.
Now I'm home, & about to leave again to go to Target with HALEY!
<3


By the way, my dad picked me up from Bridgets this morning, (we got back to her house around 7:30 and went back to sleep til late-ish.)
and when he saw some guy on the street he goes,
"I wonder how many points I'd get for hitting that guy. How many points Melanie? HOW MANY?!"
And made me sit there and listen to Pink Floyd all the way home.

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I have a lot of homework to do :/
