This Weekend...

OH MY GOSH.

It was FABULOUS.

Kelsie and I went to the AP Fall Ball Concert in San Diego... it was amazing. AMAZING.

All the bands were great. I wish the crowd had been more enthusiastic about The Secret Handshake. Set Your Goal's set was great... but kind of scary. Some dude behind us decided to try and crowd surf. And he wasn't tiny and young. And he was wearing boots. So I got kicked in the head. And some kids were running around punching people. That wasn't too cool either. But the band was great... you could tell they were really into what they were doing. The Academy Is... ... :). They played all the songs I hoped to hear that night. I was smiling and jumping and singing the entire set. It was amazing (what other word can I use?). And I caught Adam Siska's water bottle :D haha. And we had seen him in front of the venue right before the show, which was really cool. I wish we had seen more of Mayday Parade's set from the amazing view we had, but after TAI, I guess we felt kind of claustrophobic, so we needed to get out of the crowd (we had been in the dead center of it). But they were still really good.

Not to mention, I love San Diego. It was so gorgeous down there.. and we stayed in a beautiful hotel and... it was just amazing.

What a Year

I keep making promises to myself that I always break. Like, when I'm at school, I'll think, OKAY. Today, when I get home, I'll get Spanish done because it's easy, then I'll work on Bio and see how much I can get done in an hour or two and THEN I'll finish that English assignment. But you know what? IT NEVER WORKS. Whenever I get home, I always feel like the day has just drained me to the point that I could never go back to school (which I usually find decent) and sleep or veg forever. Which sucks.

I haven't disliked school so much for years. I mean, I've had times when I really don't want to go, but not this badly. Every morning, I wake up, and want to cry because I have to go back. Which is the last thing I want to do.

October will hopefully be, and has already been, a bit better, though. Junior Ring ceremony was fantastic :), then a movie night with my best friends that was spent half talking, half watching movies, and a quarter sleeping. No, I am not a math genius, as you can tell, but I'm not completely dumb. That time we spend together is more deserving than a 100%. So I give it 125%. If these people were your friends, you would understand.

They are the types that keep you grounded but flying high at all times. They listen, they help, they care. Every single one of them is the type that only comes around every [insert the earth's age here] years.

So. I guess that would be as much as I can say for now.

I figure it was time...

Hello. It has been awhile.

I think it has been, at least.

I don't even know anymore.

This year has just been a complete roller coaster, to be honest.

I have lost track of all time.

What I DO know: I do not go a day without sleeping in class. I have not gotten to bed before 12 in weeks.

I guess I am a tad overwhelmed. But, I am almost done for tonight. So... that makes me fairly happy :)

So I think I'm headed to my dreamworld now.

See you all in the very near future.

Love,

Emily
