ISS was actually pretty cool today. There were some pretty cool people in there to talk to (even though we're not suppose to talk) and we even got paid a visit from the famous Kirk Elsworth (football player from my school who broke a bunch of state records). It was pretty good times. Sucks that I missed so much school though. I'm gonna get asked questions galore now and probably get beaten up by my friends. Don't get ISS though. It might be fun but it really is not worth the trouble you get in and what not. My day is going pretty good though. I'm back in classes tomorrow. Wish me luck! ^_^

Fun times today. I got in a fight and got a day and a half in school suspension. Took a nice shot to the face and hit my head on the ground twice but nothing serious happened to either of us. My parents took it pretty well though. I should be able to go see the Chiodos on Friday event though that happened. I guess they found the fight justified. Which it really wasn't but they know I have a habit of overreacting. Anyway Friday I will be back in class and it will all be good. Well not exactly. I have an ISS on my perfect record now but I guess 1 isn't too bad. *Sigh* I totally want my parents to be mad at me right now. I'm totally freaked out by their seeming not-caring-ness. That fight definitely wasn't worth it.

I fucking hate my life. Friday I'm suppose to go to the Local with Kurtis to see the Chiodos Bros. but Friday is also my mom's b-day. My parents are being big gays about it too. Their all like "it's your mom's bday so idk if we want you to go." It's the Chiodos for Christs sake! I have to go! Hot emo chicks will be there too... who wouldn't give up 1 bday to see Chiodos and hot emo chicks. I mean shit, she's already had 48, what do I need to be there for the 49th? I'll be there for the 50th... It's just a lot of crap. I want to go and I'm getting a hard time. >.<

Okay... idk about today. I guess I'm kinda out of it still from all the crap i did this weekend (none of you have heard all the stuff i did and you wont cause it was shadier business) but yeah. Anyway I don't know how I feel today or anything I'm just really spaced out and kinda feel like going to sleep but I just drank a lot of coffee. I have been drinking a lot of coffee lately. I spike it like 90% of the time too so I have been really messed up. Music though!

OMFG I have become insanely obsessed with music. *Sigh* I have listened to all my songs by Mae like 50 times in the last 24 hours. Even burned it all to a CD and listened to that some. Embers and Envelopes is like... one of the best songs I have heard in a while. I know I say that about just about every song I talk about but they really are. Music is just kinda an escape from a life of hell that no one truly knows about but me. Helps to hear that other people have the same problems through music. I mean they might not have the exact smae problems but... it doesn't really matter. Not many people are gonna read this and maybe 2 people will comment. It seems almost pointless to post at all. It seems like I only do it to give myself a false sense of accomplishment and of people actually caring about my this worthless shell of a being that I call myself. I don't know... maybe I'm just a self-loathing bastard but I doubt it. I think I really am the pathetic, worthless, peice of crap that I portray myself as. It seems like no one can help me either. I just keep feeling worse and worse about myself, not that you would really care though...who could care about me? I don't even care about myself. I guess I will see you when I see you.

Yeah, I really gave nothing to say today. I pretty mush just slept the day away and when I woke up I was grumpy because... I don't know, I just kinda was. So not much has happened. Played some games, listened to some Allister, and ranted about how I'm not ready for a concert we have in choir class on the 9th. I don't really think any of us are ready. We have like... 5 songs that the bass is in (thats where i am) and 6 songs that sopranos and altos are in. We have no tenors because there aren't enough people in the class especially not men. Four men in the whole choir and we need them for bass. *sigh* I don't know any of the songs very well. I mean I know them sorta well but not well enough that I can sing them without looking at the music. Especially not Benedictus. That song is in Latin so it is really really tough. Ah well, got a little over a week to get it down. We are all gonna have to work our arses off though!

Well, I'm up with nothing to do listening to Mae so I figure I will do my big music post. Okay... so my favorite bands are: Bright Eyes, Cursive, Death Cab For Cutie, The Postal Service, My Chemical Romance, Something Corporate, Chiodos Bros, Matador Versus Matador, Mae, Taking Back Sunday, Modest Mouse, Coheed and Cambria, Vinny Keys, Modest Mouse, The Besties, Mindless Self Indulgence, Elliot Smith, The Faint, Straylight Run, The Killers, Trapt, Thursday, AFI, The Cure, Azure Ray, Dashboard Confessional, Saves The Day, The Smiths, Thrice, Allister, and The Starting Line.

I can't even believe I've heard all those bands let alone liked them all. Mostly my friend Kurtis's fault. He sent me like 400 peices of music which is where I learned to like most of those people. *shakes head* Kurtis... sent me too much good music. I can't even decide what to listen to most of the time. Anyway those are some if not all of my favorite bands. Buy their CDs, legally download their music, illegally download their music (I didn't say that), w/e but I highly reccomend listening to them. A lot of punk or emo or w/e crap on their but if you can get through all that AFI is pretty normal... new mainstream Dashboard some of you might like... Modest Mouse is pretty mainstream now... Cursive isn't mainstream but it is similar. Anyway should be something in there just about any of you will like. ^_^ As a side-note though it will be tough to get anything by Matador Versus Matador and Chiodos Bros. cause Matador Versus Matador is a small band from my school and Chiodos Bros. are pretty much a local band but if you get a chance to get either of them you should jump on it, they are both great bands. More info on Matador Versus Matador should be available from EmbersXofXNever (he is a member of the band). So yeah, PM him about it or w/e and he can probably hook you up.

Expect another post from me today anyway, this was just kinda a side thingy cause I like to promote excellent bands. I love music in case you can't tell. I'm rarely without a CD or pair of headphones in my hand. Well, should you choose to listen to any of that music I hope you enjoy it. Some of it can be found in music stores or borders, some of it can be ordered online, and some of it is just really tough to get. Ah well, I'm rambling... Enjoy!

I'm really really happy now. See, Death Cab For Cutie is one of my favorite bands of all time but I had misplaced my CD of them. Anyway I found it now so I'm all happy and like "Yay! I love Death Cab For Cutie!" So yeah, it's fun stuff. Bejamin Gibbard (writes lyrics for them and Postal Service) is like my hero. He is such a good songwriter than I want to just go give him a hug right now. Anyway, I guess I rant about bands enough that I should probably make a post of my favorite bands. Unless something big comes up tomorrow I will probably do it then. It will just be a runthrough of most of the bands I listen to. It can't be all cause that would be way too massive but I will get in the best of the best that I like. =)

I'm sad today. I was up north and only saw a few deer (didn't shoot any). Thats not why I'm sad though. On Thanksgiving and yesterday it was snowing and I was like "Yay! Snow is pretty!" ...Then today it rained and all the snow washed away. It is again ugly and brown outside. So yeah, I'm sad cause I liked the snow! It was cold out this morning too. I was sitting outside in the rain with my freezing cold rifle in my hands and didn't really feel like shooting anything; not that I could have moved my finger to pull the trigger if I had wanted to. Nice to spend time with my uncle and cousin though. Heh, my uncle is so much fun. I was trying to follow him in my dad's truck heading from the cabin we hunt at to his cabin cause that's where we sleep and he was going like 20 over the speed limit. Fun stuff. It wasn't like I don't know the way from cabin to cabin cause I have driven it like 50 times but it was fun to go speeding behind him. ^_^ I guess thats really all that happened while I was gone... Wait! I drove both up and down to the cabins (we really have 3 up there) and it was really tough cause it rained bad today but yeah. It was cool too. So yeah, thats all.

Yup... I won't be here tomorrow cause I'm going up north hunting and probably won't be back until Saturday night. Really I'm not going hunting; me, my cousin, and my uncle all just sleep on our stumps while my other uncle and sometimes my dad actually watch for deer and... ya know, try to shoot them. Anyway I won't be able to post so you can all cry now. I kinda wanted to get in a sog of the day anyway though. So my Song of th Tomorrow (not gramtically correct so sue me) is: Punk Rock Princess by Something Corporate. I got so addicted to that song after I heard it just a few times! ^_^

Well, none of my other friends have posted the question yet so I figure I will. What are you thankful for today? Today I am thankful for my father, his need for my help (he has bone cancer) is what really keeps me alive as well. So now that you know what I'm thankful for I would like to know what you're thankful for too!
