.

exactly.

stream of consciousness

i fail at staying up late, many people can tell you that. i'm kind of bummed, for i was not informed of others plans. I went to Osaka with Allison and Ethan, followed by seeing Quarantine. if i am able to stay up until 4am, that will be  miracle. fuck. noone is up to talk to me on aim. my contacts keep going out of focus. i really want to passout  and say "wake me up when september ends." i carved a pumpkin tonight too. it has a shark on it. its kinda rad. i haven't carved a pumpkin in so long, and my carving tools were a bit in adequate. bummed. must stay awake.

i want to die

i've barely slept these past few days.
fuck critiques.
and fuck teachers who make all your shit due on the same day, when they know you have a HUGE critique.

i need to decide if i'm going home tonight or tomorrow.
i'm so tired.
i just want to sleep forever.
trash talk is tonight.

i want to hibernate.
i'm not making any sense right now.

BEST.

This past weekend at the beach has been prosperous.

Sweet Highlights:
Pentagram Fires, Ihop with Nathan Novak until 5am, Little Eric punching himself in the head, Chris being a pedophile, Getting free drinks at Starbucks, Almost dying of laughter in Chipotle and killer chillers.

When we got here for the Pushing On show, I only had $6 and we were late. I gave Josh my six bucks so he wouldn't miss their set, which they had held up for him. Came to find that they were marking people's necks with X's and that it was $8 due to the inflation of two bands dropping. "How are you? Yellow." Other than the initial bummer of the show issues, the only other negative outcome was some awkwardness and boredum.

It's been weird being in suburbia for the weekend. A change of scenery is always good though. When Little Eric gets out of the shower we will begin our trek back to RVA, where I have a fuck ton of work to do. Tonight will not be fun, seeing as how I stayed up all night last night. I will survive. Hopefully I'll score some new Vans on the way back. I'm stoked.

FALLING WATER TRIP

was a blast. here are a few pictures.

i hate bus rides. 

and i hate clique-y grad students.

but the site was amazing.

kelsey and i took some quality LOL shots. 

I'd recommend everyone go, if you like architecture, even if its only a little bit.

and i will most definately go again.

couldn't say it better.

perfect.

never not

listening to The Ataris.

If I have the opportunity to listen to music, they're always a top choice.

Yesterday I was awoken by a call from Brian Bailey announcing his departure from Fredericksburg to Richmond. Instantly stoked. Brian and I go way back, even though we've grown apart a few times, I certainly consider him to be one of my closest friends. Shortly after that call I received another from a man selling a bed via Craigslist which I had replied to. He came by and dropped the bed off. Brian arrived and we embraced. Shafer lunch, amazing ravioli. Went to target to get new bed stuff, then VA Hardcore and Metal Fest. Everything about this show screamed Fredericksburg, which I do not miss at all. Young, skeezy ass girls, boys who spend more time on their hair than i do, kids in shirts that have gold impact font on them. Ugh. Got Bottoms Up with Josh then Brian took me home so I could get ready for work.

Work was hell. The box office is supposed to close at 11, at 10:58 seven SUV's with atleast 8 people each in them pulled up. fuck my life. We didn't get out of work until 12:30ish.  Not to mention the cast last night left me pissed off and wanting to confront almost all of them about how shitty they are at being scary/acting/delivering lines. 

Came home showered, and then was joined by Josh, Chris and Brandon. We set out on a journey to Wal-Mart to acquire food, for it was the only place open really. While perusing the frozen food isles, Josh had the epiphany of IHOP. worst idea ever. The service was god awful, it was packed and our waiter, Akmehd did not believe in putting ice in lemonade. Laughing in a deliriant state until about four in the am. Chris bitched and we got our food half off. That manager blew. 

Mom came into town today to pick up my old bed. We went to Target and she bought me groceries, fuck yeah. I love my mom so much and I'm so glad I got to see her. I wish I could be a higher power and make things work out for her. She's the strongest woman I know, I aspire to be her. She's my everything.  

accomplished.

staying up all fucking night for shafer breakfast rules so hard.

french toast & soy-sage FTW.

goodnight.

truth.

Orbs?
Orbs have many names including globes, globules, balls of light, and hovering round balls. They appear in all ranges of brightness from bright-&-glowing to faded-&-barely-visible. They are usually quite fast and follow an erratic pattern of flight. Positive orbs are believed to be the spirits of the dead by many. However, other theories suggest that they might be separate life forms or even nature spirits. The problem is that many orb photos are false positives. Read on...

What percentage of orb photos are false?
As you might know there is a controversy concerning orbs in regards to authenticity. Although a lot of them are believed to be authentic, there are still many showing up as a result of airborne particles (dust) at the time of the flash. This happens in both indoor & outdoor shots. Because of this, it's making it really hard to disassociate the false positive orbs from the real ones. An example of airborne particles would be like opening a heavy curtain inside of a dark room to let in the light. Have you ever done that and seen all the dust in the beam of the light? Well dust can show up in pictures as orbs, especially when dust is close to the lens, and most especially with digital cameras. That's just one example, moisture (humidity), mold,& pollen are also contributors of false positive orb photos. Because of this, there is no real way to confirm authenticity with our present knowledge, therefore the consensus would have to be that most orb photos are false positives.  Perhaps as many as 50-90 percent of orb photos are nothing more than the conditions at the time of the flash.

Hi H8A.

CUTEST PICTURE EVER.

last night was strange.

i was stoked on being awake, and hyper.

everyone else was sleepyhead wiggas.

played some rockband.

then rachel and i went to walmart.

we proceeded to pick up greg on the way.

i've been in such a weird mood.

i think i take things people say to heart too much and think that i'm always the one who fucked up, thanks dad for that.

fruit loops to-go and chocolate soymilk juice box for breakfast. mmm.

i'm starting to worry things won't work out. as things often don't with me. you can't let things overcome and surpass you. that's one thing i know for sure. i've learned amazing things can get ruined by letting the little things and apprehension take over. 

fuck that. i am better, and i know i am. optimism is key.

i care, whether you want to believe me or not. success is the only option.

i also think that some times i am overly strong-willed sometimes. oh well, it's better than apathy.

and i'm learning something new everyday, from here on out. i'm not wasting time anymore. no more procrastination. 

anyway, back to class.

i just needed to say all of that.

skarhead and bulldoze tonight. 

UR M0$H!NG.

bummer.

I've been so lame today.

Lack of sleep, lack of motivation to do my school shit.

I miss my mom, a lot.

Once Haunts is over for the year I'm definitely trying to go home for the weekend and bring Josh to meet my mom and sisters.

Aside from my extreme laziness, things are pretty sweet. 

Overall, Life is good again.

fail

again, i fail at life.

i am a fuck up.

fuck my life.

merry christmas.

and a happy new year.
greetings from 306 N. Harrison st.

The past few days have been quite memorable.

homemade tattoos all around.
Josh got XXX inbetween his fingers,
Ray Ray got a GG Allen tattoo
Rachel got an upside down cross on her big toe
and Little Eric got something. i forget what it says.
But, there is a comma in it, which should be a semicolon to be grammatically correct.

Who knows what the night will turn into.
I think some rockband is about to happen.
Brandon's trying to go back to the graveyard that we went to the other night.
We got chased by cloaked figures with lanterns, scary as fuck.

I have class early tomorrow. I haven't done much of anything for my projects.
I need to get on that tomorrow.
I hate Mondays, they're so long.
Class from 9:15-10 and then 1:30-6:15.
It sucks ass.
blarg.
I'll stop being anti-social and get off the computer now.
again, Merry Christmas.

Opening weekend of Blood Lake, two thirds of the way through.

I'm way stoked on it.

It's been a blast.

Last night i was a torture victim and got a ton of positive reactions from the customers.

Tonight I was Nurse Green, basically the orphans gouges my eye out because I stared at them funny. I had a sweet prosthetic over my right eye. It's off in the picture, they took it off while I was still at the Haunt. I also took a sweet face dive into a beam, not having functioning vision in my right eye and probably will have a killer bruise in the morning.

  I slept until three today, that was pretty epic. Woke up, got Quizno's with Josh then headed to Red Dragon to see Chris get his ankles tattooed. I scurried from Red Dragon back to the apartment where I had left my phone charging.  Two missed calls from Kendal, and a few text messages, nothing important. Shortly after I hopped into Kendal's car and we drove out to the Haunt. Next weekend hopefuly everything will be ready to go. Sandy and Scott both have 9-5 jobs and do the attraction, they've gotten so much done but there's still a ton more to do before all of the effects will be ready.

 I have tomorrow off, thank goodness. I need a break. Hopefully Josh and I will make it to the park. We've been saying we were going to go on many occasions but we end up sleeping in and missing prime park hours. 

I'm waiting for Josh to get here actually. He was in the Bottom with the gang. I still haven't washed my face off. I'm all icky. Meh, whatevs. I  need to start doing my research for my wall project form Camden's class. I assume thats what I will be doing the majority of the day tomorrow, that is if I get up before it's the afternoon. So many thoughts, my brain's on overload. I think I should draw, after i clean up that is. 

Happy October, and Happy Haunting.
