I love fridays so much i wanna marry it and have fribabies
Im excited for friday

Me and Jess went into the city today and we went into music world and found a big bin that said 3 for 5$ or $1.99 each. So I was thinking to myself. $1.99!? How could I lose.
I kind of did in a way but the cd I got was...half decent. Its called Systematic.

We thought it might be some kind of crappy hip hop so I bought it for ha ha's. Yah we open the case. And it looks like a HARDCORE screamo. So by this point im thinking. Well crap. Its not even gonna be funny its just gonna give me a headache.

So i pop it in when i got home and it starts out with hardcore instruments. distortion on everything possible ,Im thinking. "Oh boy here it comes" having my finger on the stop button. but then the guy starts singing and its not half bad. Hes not screaming....at all. Which insanly suprised me. So I dont hate it.
Thats my story


Anyways tonight im gonna go to the free shows at the Jazz festival YES! im so excited. I wanted to go all week. Karinas taking me and carrie for kind of a...thanks for being youth sponsors

Grad was last night. Sad but good. Leah and cherise looked GORGEOUSE! wow. my jaw dropped when i saw them.
After grad wasnt as good as I thought it would be. Jeremy Toby and David were there which made it bearable but there were drunk people up the wazoo at a chem free aftergrad. ironic huh?
So i got home at 5. went to bed at 6 and woke up at 1. Hooray

Random comments of the day as told by me

Im pretty sure my favorite band now is the thrills. I love his voice
if your cool you would download saturday night or not for all the love in the world by them. or even buy their cd!

Camp is in 2 days!

There is a storm coming. I know this because my 6th sense toes are tingling. Also I looked at the weather website

If my name was Waldo I would hide a lot more often


Dont you hate it when your so bored you wanna just drill something into your foot or something. Yeah thats how im feeling now.

So me Lance and Reagan went to the stereotrap concert at Nutella college park this afternoon. And let me say. By the time we got there ( which took an hour or so ) It was a bunch of fun.

It was the first time I saw Mike play with them when i actually knew he was a part of stereotrap. I seen him play once before at some church where we couldnt stand up but didnt pay much attention to him because i just thought he was playing with them cause jody couldnt make it. He can play though. I quite enjoy him

There was only like...30 people there and a bunch werent even watching. Well maybe 20-30 watching and 15 hanging around at the blow up...things and food places. Overall it was pretty small but at least the day turned out to be beautiful.

There was a clown there and she walked over to us. Regan proclaimed that I needed a hug so I jumped out of my seat. ran a bit away and started covering my mouth and crying. She pretended to be scared of me. Then realized i was crying and actually scared of her. so she left.


Stupid clowns

I guess it was a pretty funny prank. I like the ones that don't involve things catching on fire.
Yeah nothing is hurt except feelings...

Life is like a circus: it contains midgets and monkeys. If you remember one thing in life you will be ok. I am not telling you what it is though.

So its the weekend. eh? and its summer! since like... 2 or 3 days ago. hoorah
I love the beach. its close to water which is fantoobulus. More people should be allowed to live in the ocean
1 week left until camp.

Im really bored right now. I just went into the city to go shopping with carrie and now im just sitting here.
being bored is the worst feeling ever I just wanna run around and scream but I know it wont help. That and my familys home.

Iv givin up trying to hide my license date so here it is....the day I will go for my license


july 11th


BAH! im so nervous. I haveta go with this...guy who takes me out an hour before i go and takes me through it and I heard hes really mean. and I hate mean people. Id rather do it on my own with no help then do it with someone whos mean. But my parents wont let me.
Im actually fairly confident that I might get it. Contrary to popular belifs I am a good driver. I swear. but im not going to get my hopes up.
Since most of you are at camp when I go. youll know if i got it if I come up to visit when the stereotrap concert is.


Sorry my posts have been really random and stupid lately.. im just bored

There is nothing so shocking as discovering you are an elephant with extra legs.

As I was walking through a life one morning, the sun was out, the air was warm, but Oh, I was cold
Ted Leo & The Pharmacists - Me and Mia

2 down 2 to go.

I PASSED BIO! hooray for credits!
and hooray for Comm. Easy easy shmeasy exam.
Boo for Law tomorow. He said it is going to take 3 hours..I didnt think id dread anything more than i dreaded Bio...but im dreading law.

Anyways. I might have told you about an allergic reaction I had to a temporary tattoo? Well if not. I had a big square of hives. It was pretty cool. ANYWAYS. Its back! I scratched it the other day and BAM! There it is again! what the heck is wrong with me! . Whenever I itch it, it hurts

8 days left until camp!

My cousins are coming to live with me this summer. Forsure for July but maybe august and maybe for a bit of school. They hadta be out of there house on july 1st and they stilldont have anywhere to live and its my job to find something for them to do all summer. hooray.....or not.
I love my cousins * its only the two youngest ones. 10 and 12* but i feel bad that they haveta go thorugh this and not know anyone here while im gone.

but anyways. my wrist is falling asleep

And when the day is through,Nothin' to do, sit around groovin' with you
Stevie Wonder - Love havin' you around

One exam down. 3 to go.

Bio was SO hard. It started off with 75 multiple choice. matching and like 7 digrams,super hard fill in the blanks/charts. It ended with an extremly hard essay on angiosporophyte reproduction. Like come on! I think I passed but i didnt do good per say.

Comm tomorow and law on friday and finally art. then in done grade 11.

MAN was the storm last night ever COOL! I was home alone though. The lightning was absolutly nuts and went until 3:30 I didnt get much sleep but it was worth it.
I got the coolest picture of a bolt but I cant downoad hello so I cant show you. sorry

But off to study for law. cause the other two exams are going to be a joke.


On another note. I CANT BELIVE Josh Palmer didnt make it into the top 10 tonight on Canadian Idol. I was so ticked.
Canadian Idols become a big mainstream joke. Seriosly. People only vote for people just cause they can sing. Reality check, Josh can sing AND he has something unique to offer. His stage presence was amazing and he was doing something diffrent.
The people who got through were cookie cutter contestants. they can sing and its nothing new and scary. People knew the songs they sang therfore its safe so have them on the show.

And your probably wondering why im making such a big deal about this. Its more of a rant to society than that Josh didnt get through. People basicaly look for 1. hot/cute 2. belting it out/glory notes 3. hype 4. choosing a well known song and hardly varying from the original.
we dont need another 19 year old blonde star...we really dont.

Ah well hes a hopeful for the wildcard pick

An ending fitting for the start, you twist and tore our love apart
The libertines- Cant stand me now

I changed my template again..the other one was too busy and confusing

I think my brain is going to implode

Bio AKA: The exam straight from hell. Is a lost cause. Iv studied for like 9 hours for it and I STILL dont remember anything

But today was my last bio class of the year and MAN did it ever go by slow I really think that was the slowest class in the history of the world. It feels like it should be tomorow

Anyways. im craving music. I havent listend to it all day..gah...and its only second class and i have poopin law next. Ugh.

Im so excited for summer though. 11 days until staff training! woo! and im going for my license..soon. but im not saying when. Iv only told...three people. so dont even think of it. ha

But i think im done being random and...stuff...so im just gonna do something else..

Indie
A gloriously vague term for Independant Music.
Basically unsigned or more obscure bands

This is the new kind of music I have been listening to. And just recently iv been hearing some stereotypes that come with it.
apparantly this music is accociated with the scene which is a bunch of people who think they are cooler than one another.
Apparantly everyone who listens to indie music thinks that othermusic and everyone who listens to anything else sucks. and they are so much better because they know of bands no one else has head of.
I would tell you about my favorite band, whose music I love, but you've never heard of it and thus you are not worth the telling.

Why does every thing have stereotypes? seriosly whats wrong with society.
I listen to "Indie" because I like the music. It doesnt mean i think im better than you because you dont listen to it
Im afriad this is becoming the new "fad". Why do I always have to get into things right when its labelled a fad and automatically im a poser for liking it.
I like it because I like it. Not because everyone else does.

Seriosly. Posers are my biggest pet peeve. So why would i want to become one.

I should just stop listening to it until this whole thing blows over.


just gimme indie rock

Fashionably Uninvited

Yes this is still stephs blog. I changed it around and im still not sure if i like it. I might change it to another one i found cause this one is kinda cluttered.
ANYWHO
i had a heck of a time intalling the comments so you better comment lots now haha

And as you can see. i added a crappy comic of the day at the top right. so click on the top button of the two

We're ordinary people we can't help but to change
The Shins- Pressed in a book

Man so many people have changed over this last year. People who were once nice are now total jerks, People who were once jerks are really nice.

Next year is going to be so weird... think about this. After exams im techically in grade 12. I graduate next school year. thats so sad.
I dont wanna leave my comfy fairytale town and venture into the real world. im too scared. But i know im going to have to leave eventually. leave the highschool life. I just seem too young to be graduating. Weird.

on a totaly unrelated topic. I hate boys and the feelings we have for them. Why cant things work out the way i want them to without all these problems and setbacks and..everything. Boys are of a confusing species.


whatever enough complaining. Hooray for only 2 days of school left.exams until monday, grad then off to camp! I can hardly wait.

I also finally booked my drivers... but im not saying when. all im saying is its in july. im so nervous.

If music be the food of love, play on

Jess's blog inspired me to write a little somethin somethin about music.

There are several things I love about music and im going to talk about them here

First of all. Theres always a band or a song for a specific emotion. If your sad, you can pick out your favorite sad song. It could go the other way too. If your sad you can pick out your favorite cheer up song.
Music can change your emotion. It can make us jump from a state of happiness to one of deep sadness and solitude, all in less than five minutes.

Music is a way of bringing back memories. For me a specific band or song can bring back such vivid memories. even if someone says a peice of a lyric it can bring me back to a certain time like it was just yesterday. Certain songs remind me of special moments or people in my life. And it brings joy. I love memories of people that I miss. If im missing someone I can just pop in a cd that reminds me of that person.
Music is great that way. I think all of us have songs we love for the connection it gives us to another person, whether they are people we love, family or friends. I've had songs in my relationships that have summed up my feelings and passion. Now they're songs I hate, for that very reason.

Music is the only form of communication that bypasses the mind and goes straight to the heart. Music has such impact on people. It can move crowds and speak to the heart, it can bring people together.
The beat can pound and you can feel it right in your gut like your sticking your finger in a outlet, a power surge just flows through you. It's awesome

Music provides a beat just to dance and go nuts. enough said.

Theres just so much diversity i dont think anyone can not like music. Theres something out there for everyone.

Each song is like a time capsule of associations. What kills me is when it's a new song you've never heard before, and you feel it at this very moment capturing the essence of it all and crystallizing it in your memory. It's a very powerful thing we you KNOW it's happening right in front of your eyes - to know that years from now, you will always remember this moment if for no other reason than this song

The intensity, it's too much to convert in to words. Some things are bigger than language.

Ok im starting to sound too smart. im leaving it at that

Feel the music

Go along with the plan.Your head will still be there where you put it. Under the bed with the ice cream you could never find
The shins- when i goosestep

I love that song^ go download it now


Sneakers- funny, laid-back, and goofy, you love to
make people laugh and have a good time. You

people think of you. You like to hang out with
your buddies and just have a good time. You are
your own person, and most likely your friends
are too. [please vote! thank you! :)]

What Kind of Shoe Are You?(new and updated results!!)



Dalmeny days was so much fun. I hung out with carrie most of friday outside. then we went to bingo then the fireworks...they werent that good but we made noises for each of them. mymom heard them and she was like " I knew it was you...your voice...carries"
Me allyce carrie braden and lance were making roll crucken or whatever however you spell it that night too until like 2 oclock then me and allyce stayed the night and went to bed at 4 because we watched moulan rouge.
Then up we were for the pancake breakfast and then dun dun dun dun.... the parage. Wow that was so much fun. Ryan decorated his car in crumpled brown paper bags and put speakers on top of his car and pumping the tunes. we were all dressed as giant brownbags and people rode longboards. we were also holding banners and stuff. we got best in show. thats right. your jealous

then off to watch some crappy baseball and sit in the sun more. hooray.

after that was a delicious BBQ thanks to Jon or as most people know him craiga's burgers...wow they were good. but then after that we had a surpise birthday for kerri sperling it was good because we said it was for allyce. but then carrie took her to martensville to get stuff for "allyces" party. then she hadta go back to her house to " get lawn chairs" and we surpised her good.

And that was by far my most eventful day because today i just sat at home doing laundry and filling water pics. and i asked my mom if i could call someone to come over while im waiting but she said no. youll get distracted
1. how can you get distracted from something when your not even doing anything
2. isnt it sad when your mom thinks you can distracted from nothing

Im scared. this is the first time iv ever burnt my arms.. i think im going to implode.

sorry about the below post. my link made the writing all messed. and i typed it out TWICE and im NOT typing it out again haha. if you really wanna see it try to copy and paste it into a word document

It should be a good day tomorow, unless i fall into a pit of spikes


Today was alright. First spare then the physed class went golfing so all i did was sit in the library and color bio. then it was double art then i totaly bombed a bio exam

After school I went to the new Long and McQuaid. I got two words for you, WOW. Wait. I guess that's one word. Well its freaking huge. I walked in and almost fell over. Guitars stretching as far as the eye can see... Well, not quite. But it's pretty huge.

Me and Jess after I got back looked like summer eskimos walking down by the old railroad tracks. we had our hoods pulled over our heads and i had my strings tied tight. Never have I seen so many bugs swarming over my head at one time. I think I am a walking mosquito bite right now.
I would try to talk to Jess but as soon as i opened my mouth my sentances would consist of me spitting the bugs out of my mouth. That wasn't too much fun. Well the walk was. not the bugs.
And our monument we made last year got kicked over...yeah, Dont ask.


So. Dalmeny days is this weekend. Woo another excuse for retarded teenagers to get drunk. Im excited for the fireworks ( which seem to get crappier every year but hey )
and being in the parade. Im gonna be a giant brown bag for ryans milk and honey longboard "float" then a BBQ after.
I think theres bingo or something during the weekend. who knows but know this. Bingo owns you. Theres nothing better than bingo on a friday.. or saturday night in Dalmeny...nothing i tells yah.


Simpsons quote of the day

Ah weaseling out of things is what seperates us from the animals, well except the weasel of course
-Homer

Static prevails

Its felt like this weekend has totaly passed me by and I could have done something more useful of my time. not saying that my weekend wasnt fun..just not fufilled to its potential.

Seriosly. i slept in AGAIN this morning. honestly. whats wrong with me? Braden and brennan were pounding on my door and i didnt hear them. Where did my internal alarm clock go? i remember the days i would wake up 2 minutes before my alarm everyday. now i wake up 20 minutes after it goes.


--------------------------------------------
You'll sit alone forever
If you wait for the right time
What are you hoping for?
I'm here I'm now I'm ready
Holding on tight
Dont give away the end
The one thing that stays mine

I love those lyrics. Jimmy eat world is so good.


sorry that was my bit of randomness for the day.
----------------------------------------------------------------
On another note. theres only a few days left until summer. a few more weeks until im free of that prison for a couple months only to come back for one final year. then im done. finally done.

I can hardly wait. seriosly. im so excited for my plans for after school. So excited to get away and start a life in the real world instead of this fake highschool life im living now.

Im also really excited for this summer. I can feel great things are going to happen and i cant wait to be a part of it. YAY!


Well that was the most fluctuating in moods post iv ever had. Enjoy

Sharp disaster in a fresh new coma, Was it worth it when it was over?
dashboard confessional - am i missing

before i say anything. everyone download hold me closer tiny dancer by stillwater... haha so good. i love that movie


Dreams are weird. seriosly.
I had a dream last night that i was in a part of DisneyWorld that didn't even exist, and the only way to get in was flying in.
but weirdly carrie was flying a blanket with us in it. the weird thing it wasnt like flat or anything. it sunk down as if the corners were tied up
She kept taking these sharp turns upwards and downwards and i wouldnt be holding on so i would almost fall out everytime and i got really mad at her.

Now that you all know how screwed up I am. i think il stop with that

I used to like the rain alot. i dont anymore. i dont know why. the only way i like it is if it comes with thunder or lightning. getting wet is a gross feeling. If it was pouring i wouldnt care. but my glasses get all speckaly and stuff. and its just so cold outside it feels like a wet winter. Saskatchewan has possibly the worst weather on the face of this planet

speaking of speckaly glasses. im not getting contacts till september *grrr* im angry. i haveta wait till my next eye appoinment. oh well. nothing i can do about it now

My final remark: everyone go out and buy golden oreos. SO GOOD!

dont get mad if im laughing, blame the caffiene
hot hot heat- middle of nowhere


I almost burnt my house down today doing something as innocent as cooking chicken. so heres the story

i put on some chicken in a frying pan.
* sidenote. higher than its supposed to be at*
( 4 peices= too much )
and i go get my hawk nelson cd from my room. i put it in and i get really distracted... but i wasnt dancing around and singing cause my parents WERE home... ahem... yes. they...were home...and i WASNT dancing... whered you get that crazy idea. sheesh.
ANYWAYS since i WASNT dancing and i DIDNT the music really loud i didnt hear the massive crackling the chicken was evetually making and i guess i was too blind to see the smoke bllowing out of the kitchen. then my sense of smell...apparntly the only sense working at the time kicked in. and im thinking. oh right i had chicken on...ew it doesnt smell very good. FINALLY it clicks in and im like CRAP!
so i run to the kitchen and i see a mini fire on my stove and black smoke coming from it. i didnt really know what to do so i grabbed the pan and ran it under water... haha... yeah. so needless to say i almost had some carcoal briquettes for supper but i threw them out and kept careful watch of the new batch. and i had to air out my house cause it stinks like massive amounts of smoke

yeah thats my story for the day

its pretty cool lately cause i cant hear out of my left ear. its been like that since the night before last... and i dont know what the poop is wrong with it. i think im getting old haha
