So I'm not sure what I want to do. I got a call from the Mocha House asking me if I could play a show on thursday December 15th. I would be playing with Tiffany which would be awesome, but I really need some new stuff and I haven't had time to write. School has been kicking my ass and is taking up most of my time! Should I play? Should I not play? I don't know. I want to, but I think people are tired of hearing the same old stuff. Well, if other people aren't, I am. I need new songs. And it sucks because I have about 4 songs that I've been working on for a few months, but I'm so stuck on the lyrics. My mind can't just stick to one thing. It jumps around and when I think I start to have something good, it just falls a part. I just hope when I finally do get over this stuck phase that something awesome will come out.

Last nights show was so awesome!! Rich and Jason were both amazing :) Thanks to everyone who came out! I totally appreciate all your love and support!
I'm working on some new stuff so hopefully by the next show I do, I'll have more new stuff for everyone to hear.
Thanks again!
P.S. Thank you Jason and Rich for letting me play and extra thanks to Rich for letting me use his guitar :)

I always hate the day of my shows! I wake up and start freaking out. For someone to get nervous before a show, that's normal, but everytime I play a show it seems that I'm nervous all day. I had a dream about the show last night, I woke up freakin out, and now my stomach has knots in it like crazy! I've been so involved in trying to write new songs, that I haven't even touched my old stuff in what seems like forever. But I've been trying to fit in practice time here in there the past few days, but...I don't know. I'm just really, really scared. I try and break down that wall of nervousness and play my best at every show, but for seem reason I feel so pressured at this one. If their is any show I'd hope to do really great at, it's this one. I guess I'll just try not to think about it. If I go in there and there is lots and lots of people (or in my case, if there is even just 2 people) I'm gonna try not to be nervous and freak out. I can do this...
Everyone, please come support me. And if not me, come support Rich and Jason. They are both really talented musicians! It's gonna be an awesome show! Promise...

11:18 am - Jackie Brown, Telford, and Glenhaven...Come to our show!!!
Ok, so I know I told myself I wasn't going to be playing a show for a while...a long while, but when Jason called me the other day and asked if I wanted to play with him and Rich, how could I say no?! I've always wanted to play with Jason so I was definitely not going to pass up the offer! I'm totally excited! And totally nervous! I'm not sure if I'm ready to play any of my new stuff yet. But I'll probably play at least one new song. Everyone better come! It's going to be a kick ass show!!!
Thursday, 6:30p.m., mocha house

I'm totally excited!! I just got back from an awesome night in berkeley and I got the new special bonus package cd of Taking Back Sunday!!! The same wonderful 10 songs on Tell all Your Friends with 2 bonus tracks, acoustic stuff, six music videos, and an interview with all the original members. I picked the cd off the shelf and totally creamed my pants. Ok, maybe not, but I was damn close to it!
I miss Laura. I want a goodnight kiss...
P.S. My family didn't die of food poisoning.

06:01 pm - Mmmm...food!
So I figure since my dad and gloria are nice enough to let me move back home and save money then maybe I'll be nice and cook the family dinner tonight. I never cook, but I'm cooking the only thing I ever learned from my old roomate michelle...pork chops, artichokes, and the best pasta in the world! I hope it turns out ok and I don't kill my family with food poisioning or something. But I guess even if it doesnt turn out that great, it was the thought that counts. Wish me luck!

08:17 pm - and i'm back...
I'm bored. For once...I'm completely bored with nothing to do. I want to sleep since I probably need to catch up on quite a bit of it, but I don't want to.
I've been writing some new songs. I have 2 new ones and 2 more that I'm working on. I want to practice, get better, and built up my stuff before I play another show. It might be a while, but I think it will be worth it. And everyone and their mother better come to it when I do!!
I miss Laura. I wish she didn't have school tonight. I'd totally attack her if she was here right now ;)
I miss Michelle too. I'm going to see her tonight though! Yay! I get to watch t.v with her and cuddle with buster!
I miss Vern. I wish she'd call me. I want a big hug dammit! :)
I miss Ashley...Lauras cat. She's so freakin fluffy, cross eyed, and cute! I want to pick her up in the box.
I'm bored....

Without explaining everything let me just say that I've made a final decision...I will never be a psychiatrist. I've thought about going to school and getting into psych....maybe being a psychiatrist or a high school counselor or something like that, but after tonight I realized if I made a career out of psych. I would literally kill myself. Sometimes I already feel like my head is about to explode and my heart just gets in the way. I don't want to add myself to the suicide statistics. So yeah, no psych. for me. I think I'll just stick to my plan on becoming a nurse.

12:06 am - flip-flop adventures...
What a great day!! Today was EXACTLY what I needed. The beach, my guitar, and my buddy Erika...the three things I've been needing the most lately. I saw one of the most beautiful sights you can ever see, I started writing a new song, and most of all I finally had my one on one time with one of my best buddies. We talked, I cried, we laughed, we searched for shells and glass rocks, and we almost died trying to save our flip-flops. It was great!!
I cant wait to take my girl to the beach. We'll have so much fun! And I really can't wait for the camping trip with all my friends. Thats gonna be awesome! I love the beach!!

01:06 am - "hott, with 2 t's"
Ok, so I have to admit. I feel like I've been on this emotional rollercoaster for the past week now with plenty of ups and downs, but right now...I'm at a definite peak. I didn't think I was gonna be able to see Laura for a few days because of our schedules, but we managed to fit in a quick visit tonight...well, what was suppose to be a quick visit turned out to be a little bit longer ;) Anyways. I'm soooooooo glad I got to see her though. I feel so much better about things. And I played her my new song which made me feel like a huge weight was lifted of my shoulders. Overall, tonight was just awesome. Totally awesome!

So I donated blood today. And now I'm taking a guitar break. The past 2 days I've been feeling a new song coming on and today I actually started it. Lets just hope it turns out the way I hear it in my head.

I drink away my sorrows
but realize it still remains
until i'm sober tomorrow
you're in my mind again....
This past week has been stressful. Too much is going on at once. And the past few days...I've been driving myself crazy...thinking way too much. About things I shouldn't be thinking about. Or should I?
I wish I could sleep next to my girlfriend tonight...I just want to be held

There's this car on my street that has the same car alarm as Laura so everytime I hear it I think it's her and get really excited. But sometimes it's not and I feel really stupid and get really disappointed. I just heard it a few minutes ago...but now I feel stupid...and I'm disappointed.
I just want to cuddle all night...

So far my day is going good. My head hurts a little from thinking so much about school and trying to figure out my schedule, but other than that I feel great. I feel great that I'm actually gonna go back. I'm gonna try my best to get in this fall, but if for some reason I cant I'm definitely getting in by the next semester. I'm ready. I've put it off long enough. I've used every excuse in the book. No more excuses. I have to do something with my life because Lowes is not my life and is not what I want for a career. Still not sure what I want to do, but at least I'm going back and getting started. I'm thinking really really hard about getting into nursing. I think that would be totally awesome. It would be hard, but it would be awesome.
I've also been thinking a lot about moving back in with my dad. I really really dont want to move back because I love my freedom, but overall after weighing out the pro's and con's, it would be the better choice to move back in. I need to save money for school, for a new car, for clothes that I've needed for the past 3 or 4 years, and to pay michelle back for money that I owe her. Even with getting our new roomate Megan (who is totally totally cool by the way) I know I can do it living here, but I know I can do it much quicker living with my dad. And right now I think the quick way is the better way to go. I'm 21 with almost no college expeirence. Yeah, I went for a year, but that doesn't count in my book. I've had my work time, my relaxing time, and my share of fun time. Now it's time to go to school and get on track and I have to tell myself that no matter how hard and stressful it can get, that in the end it's all gonna be worth it.
I want to go to Canada...

Just got back from recording with Jason! I'm super excited that I pretty much have all my songs recorded now. We just have to go back and re-record "until tomorrow" cause I know I can do that song a million times better. It needs to be more powerful. And it definitely needs some drums. I can't wait till it's all done. I don't have that many songs, but I just want to finish it and start working on some new stuff since I haven't written a song in who knows how long. It's been a while. Anyways.
One more day and I'll be puking my brains out at the bar! No, jk. I don't even know what I'm doing for my birthday. I have to work 10-7 tomorrow and then after that...no plans. Hopefully I'll get to see some of my friends and just hang out. I don't care that much about tomorrow though. I'm just excited to be 21 right before pride at the end of this month! It's going to be sooooooo much fun! We're doing the whole weekend expierence this year! Yay!
I miss my girl...
