Bahaha.

If Karla Compton and Davis Ruplinger had a baby:

Exhaustion. I've been getting absolutely no sleep at night, and we all know what that causes.
Bright red eyes the whole next day.
I'm going to try to go to bed pretty early tonight, because I was walking around like a zombie all day today.
And randomly falling asleep places. Matt came over today around 12 because he said he wanted to tan or something, but I fell asleep on him the whole time, passed out on one of the chairs by the pool. Then he left, and I went to go visit my friends elsewhere and pay a little visit to Moes because I haven't been there in forever. I almost fell asleep walking to the door! We ran into Frampie and Tyler G, and some other people I didn't know and that was awkward just because I felt completely out of it and gross but I didn't really care. Then Abby told me she didn't feel like eating there, and I agreed. Big time.
Then this OTHER Matt I know (Viskovich) called me and he wanted to hang out a little bit before he had to go to work so he was around Sea Turtle cashing a check somewhere and we decided to get milkshakes at Cheeburger.
Abby of course was going buckwild with his camera phone taking picture after picture and I was burying my face in my arms like, the WHOLE time. and finally matt grabbed his phone back, but asked for a picture of me anyways so I just slid on my glasses and said, fuck it, one.
Other than that, the milkshakes were really good. But theres times where I can't stand pictures being taken, and when I love them being taken. Today, was a no-no.
Then I went to Abby's and fell asleep on her while watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, and then decided to just go home. So here I am. I'm about to go to bed, I'm just waiting for my 30 minutes to be up because I'm using Crest White Strips. Which are bothering me right now, they taste icky. Ugh!
I can't wait to get a good nights sleep. And wake up and feel wahndaful.
Tomorrow I'm going to Savannah, so I DO need my beauty rest!

Today was wonderful and fun,
and tonight is terrible!
I've got a bag of frozen peas on my head laying in just a baggy old t-shirt,
and i've been throwing up all night.

I hate feeling sick!

That is all.
Does anyone know of something going around...?

A gloomy day- Indeed!

Ugh! It just puts a damper on my day when I wake up to thunder and rain.
Actually, to be honest, I love waking up to rain and thunder, but NOT when I wanted to spend the day outside in the gorgeous sun!
I was planning on going to the beach today too, but now because of the weather that plan is shot.
I have errands to run anyhow, and I must get on them after this blog is through.
A determined person I know says that even though the weather is terrible, he still plans on spending his day outside at the pool playing Tornado! That's how I need to be.
I can't let rain ruin....everything. Then again, my friends wouldn't be willing to do anything outside either. But, that doesn't mean it's not a good gym day!

I am so incredibly excited for this weekend. I leave for Fairfax Virginia. This is where all my family lives, and it's located around my birthplace (Roanoke, Virginia). Roanoke is a beautiful town, known for the star that sits up on a gigantic hill! It's been there for years and years and years and years and years...



Sadly, we will not be visiting Roanoke. But I am just as content with visiting Fairfax! I love my uncles house, I know it's weird but since everyone there smokes I have grown to love the smokey scent that is carried throughout each and every inch of the house. They've got the most AMAZING basement too! It's theme is the "'50's". There is a bar down there and a ping pong table AND soda and snack machines that were used in the 1950's or 60's! There is also an Adams Family pinball machine. I have gotten so good at getting high scores on that. I can also practice playing pool. Fairfax is also only 45 minutes outside DC. We will also be visiting DC, I'm going to do CRAZY shopping, and visit the wax museum! I cannot wait. I'd also like to visit the Holocaust or the Smithsonian museums. As you all know, the Holocaust is a museum concentrating on the concentration camps, and World War II. Jewish artifacts! Hooray! And, I've always been so interested in reading and watching movies about the concentration camps and how awfully the Jews were treated. (Check out The Pianist or The boy in the Striped Pajamas)
And the Smithsonian is just one of the most remarkable museums around! I've been once to both museums, but was too young to remember any of it. However, never have I ever been to a WAX museum!
This will most definitely be a fun week, AND not to mention we will be seeing Cheap Trick live. haha! How random...

Enough fantasizing about this fun week ahead of me, I am doing anything I can to keep my mind off of the things that are getting me down. I don't feel as if it's appropriate to write down what those things might be because they are fairly new and who knows what kind of mean things I'd say and regret later. All I know is I'm making a new change for myself, and for that I am proud. I talked to Ian who I've been friends with longer than most people I know in Hilton Head last night as well, and he can be more than comforting.
Who knows, maybe now I am going to find what I'm looking for and generally be the happiest girl.

And with that- the rain stops.
It's amazing.
With that que, I will put on my shoes, and continue on with my day.
I've also got Minus the Bear STUUUUCK in my head, so I have to listen to them as soon as I get in the car.

Cheers! : )

Lack of colour

I have something to share with everyone. Yesterday I visited Beaufort and saw my adorable (redheaded) neice, Nevaeh! She just got a brand new bike so I filmed her using it for a few seconds.... then she starts to film ME looking like an idiot riding it, I have never felt more ...old. I can't fit on the damn thing. Oh well. It was a fun day, also spent with my lovely friends!





Then I come home today, to realize...
everyones an ASSHOLE!
and by everyone- I do in fact mean you. But you know this.
ugh. I hate twitter, and facebook. Just works me up.

"From my boat, I can see your house. And when the lights are on, I can watch you move"

Hi! I just wanted to let you guys know about a great band that I have been very into for years, Mew.
Mew has a very unique sound and I can never get sick of them, and they really have this creative side that I haven't even noticed much before!
In every song, there is some hidden message. They are almost impossible to figure out though.
My favorite Mew song has always been 156, but now it's Eight flew over, One was destroyed.
But, I will show you the music video that was made by Mew and finally I think I am starting to understand the little cartoon they put together. People are always trying to create some meaning behind this confusing music video, but I like to take bits and pieces and put a story together myself.



My blogspot might cut it off a bit, but if you are determined enough to view this than you will find a way I'm sure.
I'm not going to go into my description of what I think it's about, but I'd like to hear yours!
Mew is one of the top bands that I would love to see live- however, unfortunately they are from Europe. Meaning, they don't come here! Maybe they will, and I'll be a lucky lucky girl. Or maybe one day I'll be in Europe.... : )

hmmm. I doubt I'd be in Europe to see them perform, if I can barely make a plan for myself to go see a show only 4 or 5 hours away! Ugh. I am so useless sometimes, I swear.
But- I always have good intentions.

Anyways, please take some time and get to know Mew because they have many enticing songs and lyrics, oh not to mention the beautiful instruments they use! I just love foreign bands.
My favorite album they have is Frengers, and here are some recommended songs from that album. (actually, I'll probably list mostly ALL the songs on the album, but I'm putting them in the order that I like the best at least :] )
- Eight Flew Over, One was Destroyed
- Symmetry
- 156
- She Came home for Christmas
- SheSpider
- Snow Brigade
- Am I Wry? No
- Comforting sounds
- Her Voice is beyond her Years
- Behind the Drapes

Songs I like from other albums are:
- The zookeepers boy (From: And the Glass Handed Kites)
- Cartoons and Macrame Wounds (From: No More Stories..)
- Intermezzo 1 AND 2 (From: No More Stories..)

and I could go on, but... I'm sure you can find your own favorites, I gave you enough of mine!
In the mood for MORE foreign artists? Check out Sigur Ros, Bjork, FOTOS, Anathallo, Gobbledigook, ect.
I hope you all enjoy what you hear, and if you don't, then no worries.
And I hope you guys all have an amazing summer! So far, I've had some fun, but also it's been pretty stressful! Definitely not getting into that. Here is what I've been up to :











In a couple pictures you are probably wondering, what is up with the strawberries? Well, My friend Kristen and I decided to take a day to pick strawberries! We went to Dempsey Farms located in Beaufort, SC (Helena Island) for only 3.45 a bucket! And I'm talking about 20-30 extremely fresh picked strawberries juicy and sweet, and ready to eat. Thats a better deal than any supermarket can give you, I suggest that you start picking your OWN fruits and vegetables, it's a great hobby to get into for the summer. (and cheap!)

now, I am so tired and I am going to call it a night.

goodnight!

ass.
