Alright so prom was absolutely fabulous. such a fun time with the group I went with. I know a few people didn't have the best time all night, some drama here and there, but it wouldn't be right without a little drama during prom. However I had the pleasure of meeting a few new people, and they were all so fun! One thing to note, being single at prom was a good thing. and what I just noticed now...IT'S RAINING!! this couldn't possibly be any better. I do however have to work today at 5:30 but I don't mind that, because I love my job. If I sound a little too upbeat right now, you are probably right, but I don't care =D

right now I am currently suffering from multiple "plastic burns". At the afterprom, there was an obsticle course (one of those blown up ones) and I raced Davematt and Ned. Davematt and I were a close race (I still won =P), and that one scored multiple burns. Mine and Ned's race was the killer. I am currently the proud owner of a plastic burn above my left eye, and it is very visible, and kinda a cool battle scar. I got this wound by attempting to go *UNDER* a horizontal plastic beam thing which was already as low as it could be on the ground. I am such a dumb kid. I still got under it with great dexterity, and then proceeded to take ned back to school (which he goes back to on monday) and then won the race, the girl, the money, the loot, and the car. ok well only the race, but without the other stuff the story seems kinda bland. ; )

anyway, gonna go shower now, work in a couple hours, and I want some food before I go!

Wow been awhile. It is hard to blog with work being square in the middle of my day 1-9:30ish.

anyhow, my job is fantastic. Any job that pays me to stand around and play "Britney's Dance Beat" for over 2 hours is definatly a keeper. If anyone is wondering, that game is fun as hell. it is basically Dance Dance Revolution...with a controller.

another fun story: I am SOOOO sore. the gym kicks my ass...badly. I get to go to this gym in westlake now, it is a great gym, lots of machines and weights to use, I just gotta muscle up and kick some ass.

Other than that it has been just a pretty laid back kinda summer. not too much to really worry about yet, I need to make time to study up for the fall, but that can wait a little while. Prom is coming soon, have to get all fitted up for that tomorrow, and then I have to go order my flowers, and all that good stuff. so basically a fun day. other than that, just doing my best to keep entertained. However there are just a lot of people I need to do things with, and I need school to be over with for me to do things with them..and all sorts of hullabaloo like that.

anyhow, my Salsa, Mike's Hard, and Bed are callin, gotta work tomorrow morning. Goodnight

alright sorry for the delay, but I have been working the past couple days and it really cuts down on free time to blog.

basically the job is really a friendly atmosphere, with a bunch of babysitting these elementary-middleschool kids who come in to play free games on the consoles we have set up. I have some funny stories too.

but now I gotta sleep, because I have work again, and I have to learn some verses to songs

alright finished with that gaming break. So the update eh?

it appears that my Uncle (second uncle or something) Buddy died a few days ago. I have the pleasure of singing at his funeral as a favor to my cousin. I hope I can find something good to sing for him, he already wants Amazing Grace, and that is a pretty good start I think. Other than that I am not sure. new stuff...hmm...ahh yes the Finals of American Idol are coming up wednesday!!! we get to see who wins!! except I will be at a Choir Concert to watch my friends. Don't get me wrong, I want to go! I love seeing LHS choir concerts, makes me miss being there...but I like it nonetheless.

next on the order of business...getting a tux for prom. Tomorrow I gotta do it! I definatly plan on going and just having a great time. I figure it is a priveledge to go to prom again with friends I know, and I won't waste the experience. First, I need to get rid of this damn cough. Honestly, this is insane, I don't feel any other symtoms of illness but this stupid cough. It sounds like a terrible bus horn or something...and it makes me want to punch things. well alright not really punch things, because that shit hurts, but you know..something like that.

Right now I am hoping to hear from this place I want to work at. If I get this job I will definatly keep it into college. it is at this place called "Game Crazy" they even have it in berea. it is an extension in Hollywood Video which sells games and console parts instead of renting them out. Basically, it is playing video games for money when it isn't too crowded. How perfect is that?!? Your answers may vary but mine remains the same: "Fan-friggan-tastic!".

Mr. J-T what you got for me?

on that note, time for bed!

alright, so this sunday has been kinda boring, but kinda fun at the same time. not too much really happened today. I DID however meet Josh's girlfriend. She is a really fun girl. didn't spend too much time with them, because hey, they have people to see, things to do.

I did however go to a 50th birthday party for my buddy Néve's father. it was a Karaoke party! and it was fantastic. the atmosphere was so fun!

alright quick video game break

lately my dreams have been coming through so clear it is crazy. A lot of new and exciting things have been happening. which is pretty much both good and bad. to me it just shows the range of thoughts that I keep having day after day.

so yesterday was fun, I played one on one basketball. I am really out of shape..and sick, but mostly out of shape. I need to get better, then definatly start exercising. but getting better is the first priority.

alright time for some computer upgrades, talk to you later

Alright so in the past two days I have been witness to two fanastic movies.

X-Men 2 and Matrix 2. These movies were just bad ass. I can't explain how badass, because that would ruin them, but just..wow.

unnn....I can't concentrate, must sleep. more tomorrow.

Dirty Pop!

alright so life is pretty good so far. Especially for the first weekend.

the Good:
So far I have spent time with people I haven't seen in forever (Forni, Laura, Chelsea, Megan) and I even got to see Rick and his new girlfriend. That is some good stuff. Another good aspect. My bed. YUM I mean it isn't the greatest or anything, but it is a nice size bed which is very springy. A lot of potential in that baby. Mostly thought, the good times have been attributed to good friends, because they have a great power to make everything cool.

the Bad:
Making people you care about cry. that sucks. I don't like it when the basis for sadness is myself. I work really hard to fend off tears rather than cause them. that and I had to fix my tires again. I swear I get so many nails in my tires...I am just glad I have a flat repair kit. I am getting really proficienct in changing flats...which is bad because that means I have lot of them.

The Ugly:
Me when I don't shave for 2 days...ack.

alright anyway, tomorrow..or today or whatever, is the start of the exercise routine. I hear it is going to be cold in the park, but I am going anyway...I will be proud. and I will be FREAKING CHLLY TOO, but that is neither here nor there.

anyhow back to my coughing my lungs up, later!

Alright so last night was the play. and it was really good.

the set was nicely made, and there was a LOT of it. the cast did a fine job (as usual) and it was just an overall good time.

I definatly got to see a bunch of people that I missed, and I realize that summer isn't going to be as hard as I thought. The upside to today, Josh comes home today. ohhhhhhhhh we got trouble my friends, right here in lakewood city.

anyway, my big fun story from last night. Was after the play, I went to lakewood park with Laura and Dave, and it was definatly a fantastic lightning storm....but then...it started to drizzle.....and then it started to rain big drops.....and then it started to rain harder with bigger drops (at this point we were already half way back to our cars)....then it rained huge drops REALLY hard. then it started Hailing........At this point It was killer to try and see/drive at the same time. It defiantly could have been a weak tornado, but we are in Ohio after all, nothing like that happens =D.

so that was my big story for last night. anyway, time to make another today. Later!

I just had a wierd experience but I can only be brief because I have a play to go see.

and I had an opportunity to set up a place for a "random hookup". but I didn't and I was happy I didn't because I am not like that.

as soon as I got in the car. the radio immediatly played a song that I have heard lately that makes me think of Carrie. coincidence? maybe. but I was happy nonetheless.

anyway, I am out. Play time

WOW, I must say that a 16 hour nap is unnatural. During this nap I supposedly turned off my alarm 3 times, and let it go for 5 minutes before dad turned it off and I slept the whole night.

power nap I guess.

Now it is the start to a summer of fun! and what a grand start it is, I mean seriously...I am doing nothing but talking online. I can't even play shadowbane, I am so out of the shadowbane loop thanks to 2 factors: (1.)Fantastic college friends who are > shadowbane. and (2.)It being referred to as the "Bull game"...and that is like your little soldier being reffered to as "Queen Sophia".

So I have already gone back to BW one time for a untensil that my dad requested off my wall. that and I had to say by to Bill. he has been the best roomate I could have asked for this year.

So I have this play to go to tonight. I hear very good things about it. Oklahoma is the name, and Ned and Peter are the game. I bet it will be a great show.

Anyway, this fufills my promise for today, and I was happy to do it. later

Alright so I am back home again. Back in the computer room, and back in my computer chair (stop making that face).

Still not finished unpacking, but I have my home network set up. and ready for plenty of testing.

So I am home for the summer, it still hasn't registered that I really don't get to see Carrie, Chelsea, Wacked, Megan, Emily, Michelle, Bill, Kev, or anyone else on a daily basis. Now I only have 1 bed to make, and my only other thing to really do, is exercise/work.

what really sucks now is that I have these footprints that were left in me, and I guess I will never, ever be the same. I like it, and I don't. I was once asked if I could have a relationship with someone 4x better than my favorite, person right now would I want that person? Now that I think about it, not really, because even if everything was 4x better, it wouldn't be the perfect blend anymore. oh well, times move on and I don't get to always say what I feel.

I can say what I feel right now though....I AM TIRED AS HELL.

1 and a half hours of sleep is not what I would call "ample".

goodnight I am going to bed...YES at ~7pm

Today is the day to go. I already said my goodbyes, and yes even cried my tears. I am spent. Have a great summer guys and gals, see you in 3ish months. Be happy, be loved, and just get some SWEET bootay.

but, I have found, that there is one golden upside to this day....


I Can beatbox WHENEVER I want

no one is safe!

Econ review is all finished. Shorter than last time, but I feel as if I know many things, I am allowed to make a cheat sheet, which I plan to do probably 10 minutes before the test, to make sure I understand everything I write down.

because as we all know, cramming right before the test is better right?!?!?...RIGHT?!? ok not.

today I actually had a fun idea, and I did it, and I am very happy I did. I figure it is best to let people know how you feel before the moment to tell them has past. when things we think we have come and go so fast, why should we sit there and watch them leave. Swallow your pride and grab a hold of it, because hey, you never know, you might just have the strength to hold on to it for a long time.

Then again, maybe not...but the point is, that you tried, Win or Lose, Success or Setback, you tried. That makes the difference.

I have been thinking about things I miss about lakewood. mostly when it storms. The sound of the rain hitting my windows and I see the shadows move on my bed. I miss the dew that gets on my shoes in the morning after it rained the night before. The COMPLETELY intoxicated feeling of playing computer games 18 hours straight at Reality Recess gaming center with Josh. Definatly the friends that I spent 4+ years of my life getting to know and caring about.

Someone feeling like crying? listen to "Love, Me". AcapellaKev showed me the light, and it is a sad song. Especially if you care about someone. Hard to find though, if you need to, just ask me during the summer. and I will be happy to play it for your tearing pleasure.

anyway, gonna go, LATER

I DID IT, I finally learned Justin Timberlake's damn beatboxing at the end of Dirty Pop. just in time for the end of the year =D

anyways, today has been pretty sad but good, moving on, removing articles from walls, and other things. however I am sitting in this wooden chair in front of this screen with a bunch of crap that I should be packing and driving home right now, but not yet, I gotta do some econ first.

two finals tomorrow, that should be fun, but no...I mean seriously who thinks finals are fun?!?

more to come when we return from this brief commercial.

been a couple days since I last blogged, mostly because of finals. that and whenever I go and try to blog, blogger is down. it is a conspiracy I tell you.

Anyway, the days are winding down. Finals are coming and some are going. Happy moments are interrupted by sadness and reality. Living in one of my day dreams would be so nice, just for a day.

however, the trick to this is, not to worry about that shit. In the end of the school year? what matters? the only thing that matters is that I have made some of the finest friend's I could ever dream up. A beatboxbrother, two soulmates, and a wacked. Sound odd? it may be, but they are golden, and I wouldn't trade them for anything.

alright so what are the plans for summer? Apparently Jeff and I are trying to get a beach raid set up for summer, I hope that works out. I haven't surfed in FOREVER, and I want to hit those waves. other than this, probably hanging out with some old friends, hopefully catching up and learning the new lives everyone has been leading! Obviously working out all the time, this is a must, because my fitness goals are a little insane, but I want to reach them, and it will be this summer.

my mind now? hard question, most people don't understand my situation when I tell them, but that doesn't matter, only a few days before I have to unwind and chill. I just need a good dose of trouble with my bro Josh. missed that kid like crazy, half the fun of being in lakewood comes from him. I have so many stories, and I garuntee I am going to have plenty more this summer.

anyway, I tried to stay up to move chelsea's car but I am hacking and wheezing and about to feint. I need sleep...sorry Chels, I tried.

the road less traveled
Show's happiness unraveled
And you got to take a little dirt
To keep what you love
-Exerpt from "If you could only see"

as I was rolling along in my car today, I had a "nice" day dream about the up coming summer. for some reason I have a feeling I am going to be emotionally screwed. even though I am single, I am already feeling like I am going to be cheating on something that isn't even mine. I have already been ridiculed a few times for that statement. But I guess other people just don't understand. Maybe that makes me silly, or lost in my own world, but it still feels real. I just don't want to be forgotten.

however, in spite of all I have said, I am not sad. or depressed, just hopeful, and ready for a good summer. Actually ready for A summer in general. it is about time I did some good ole fashioned aerobics and lifting. my goal WILL be met this summer and there is nothing that can stop me. My fervor for exercise lately has been kind of scary. I really haven't wanted to work out so bad in a long while, but I just haven't at college because I have precious time remaining.

watch out lakewood park, when I get back you will be trampled underneath my tired yet determined feet!

I always remember people telling me that I am a warm boy. and I have figured out why

it is because I sit here in my own daydreams, thinking of romance and rainstorms. I always have a ballad in my head that I sing to myself. And during this time, my heart beats very fast and powerfully, at least that is what I percieve. My whole body feels warmer.

anyway, another mystery of life conquered

NEXT!

You know I am sitting here and wondering...What ever happened to the Gorillaz?!?

you know, "I ain't happy, I'm feeling glad, I got sunshine...in a bag..". where in the hell did they go? they kinda had that big hit, and then kinda split...shit

Rhyme city on dave's blog today...hurray...I like clay?

alright done with THAT phase. anyhow, I am all finished with my research paper, and I didn't even have to stay up real late to work on it. That makes me happy, because I feel that I was able to have a fun productive night, and not be a gigantic tool...........riiiiiiiight (thats for you kev).

so what is left for today? I know that I have to go to Voice lessons (last one!) at 2:30...then I don't remember if I have Acapella practice today with Kev and the gang, but I will be around there anyway, just in case.

this weekend is definatly take stuff home weekend....it makes me sad, but it is about time to start wrapping up my college experience, it isn't over yet. But why be overloaded on my last day? alot of this unused cluttered stuff has gotta go! and with it, happy memories of my first dorm room experience, messy and fun! just the way I like it. speaking of messy, I hope it rains soon, I need to go find some friends and kick someones ass in the mud!!

"Lying here with you, listenin to the rain. Smiling just to see, the smile upon your face."

I've found all I've waited for, and I could not ask for more.

LOL I wrote on my essay:


"There lies a vas defrens between the ISO and the Ministry of Information."

oh help me hehe

Another night of fun and smiles.

good times visiting Baskin Robins and then North Olmstead, and then Lakewood. next stop...Medina! and hopefully before the end of school.

Anyway, I am close to the end of this research paper. so I am going to take a quick break and write up a blog so I don't get too tired at the end of the night. That happens a lot, so I would like to avoid that.

Man, programming got REAL hard real fast. it is like a big jump from what I remember to what is being tought. this summer is going to have plenty of 2 actions. first one, DISCRETE MATH 2! I am going to do EVERY stupid homework assignment BEFORE the class. if I do this, then I am almost garunteed an A, and that would be fantastic. however we will see how that works. Second...you guess it, Computer Programming. I have plenty of catching up to do...and I definatly don't think I can do it without some immense studying.

however, this isn't going to take up all my time. this stuff will only be done on days when there is nothing to do. I already have a few College friends I have to visit =D so I will definatly have things to do, we will just see how everything stacks up.

until next time, Don't play with large furnature around blenders

later!
