Daddy: "You know why people like you Faithe?"
Me: "No, not really."
Daddy: "Because you like them. People like people who like them. You automatically accept people for who they are. No questions asked! Quite the quality if you ask me."
Me: "Oh, really? I always thought it was my amazing smile or something like that..."
Daddy: "Well, that could be a big part of it too, I guess *chuckle*"
Me: ":D"
So if you haven't seen Facebook or Myspace yet, I've been accepted into Converse College for this fall semester. *insert excessive yelling, bouncing, and tears of joy* I move in next Thursday and the classes start the 26th. :D
I have a LOT of shopping to do. Annnd I'm not going to be able to go to the thing with Josh now (unless I just go for that weekend) sooo yeah.
zomgg so happeh. *jumps endlessly*
You know how it is when you're listening to a song and want to just burst out singing, but you can't because you're in a public place/work? I don't, because I sing anyways, much to the concern of my coworkers (apparently they thought I had been injured). While I do agree that my rendition of Mr Brightside could use some polishing, I don't think they had to be mean about it... Anywho, I'm finishing up my last laptop of the summer as I type, and its very relieving to be doing so. I've rather enjoyed working here the past couple of months, but I could certainly do with a break.
In other news, my stomach hurts from the Subway I had for lunch, so I'm shopping for some stuff online to take my mind off of it. I'm also brainstorming the wonderful gifts I'm getting Lauren for her 'hooray-you're-going-to-college' package. I think I've settled on a final list of gifts, and even though I won't be able to get ALL the stuff I wanted, I believe it will be well received =) I'm pretty much ecstatic about moving in tomorrow. I know I'm going to miss my family, and I'm gonna be worried about my mom, but I'm very ready to start my sophomore year.
Alas, a shit-ton of computers just got dropped off. Workworkworkworkwork time.
Funfun.
Right now I'm sitting at work, reading this awesome book Faithe gave me, and for once, I don't mind being here. Granted, I will be hating this place completely in two days, but for the time being its nice to be making some money and tooling around with dilapidated technology.
My past week has been far from the norm at my house. Wednesday morning, which started out odd simply because Billy decided to drop by, I received a call from Baptist Hospital, telling me that my mom had been in a wreck. I immediately drove over there, to find my mother covered in grass and fairly bruised up. She went into surgery later that day to get her shattered hip bolted back together. The days since then have been a sort of surreal daze, with Billy staying at my house two days as well as hanging out with Lauren, and then my mom, now home, hobbling around (barely) on a walker when she isn't unconscious from pain medication, and my car sitting in my front yard after being beat up and crunched from diving nose-first into a drainage ditch. It has been a mess, that's for sure. In all though, I guess I'm doing okay. I've been upset off and on the past couple of days, but I feel a lot better today. I guess the shock of it all is really what has been getting to me, but you know, its nothing I can't handle. My family, myself included, has been through worse, and regardless of what comes next, we can take care of that too. That's life for you.
To add to the surreality of it all, I return to Wake (to live) this Saturday. I find it so incredibly hard to believe that 3 months has gone by since I packed all that crap into my little car and dropped my key at the door. Then again, I believe the culprit here is all the fun I've had since that day. I mean, me and lauren have been spending a lot of time together (though it could never be enough) and I've been working a not completely unbearable job, not to mention the ridiculous amount of World of Warcraft me and my brother have been playing (srsly, I gotta cut back). I guess I can say it was a summer well spent.
Speaking of summer ending, my baby is starting college in a week or so as well, and I couldn't be more excited for her. I know she has been feeling a little apprehensive of the whole thing, but judging by my general expereince with college life, I think its safe for me to say she is going to absolutely love it. I'm a little disappointed that my new job has me tied up dealing with Wake freshmen the same day she moves in, but it looks like her family is going to take care of her and stuff, so I'm not as worried about that.
Ahh...my tum is rumbling, and for once I have a lunch that doesn't contain a sandwich. I have some single serving hamburger helper that I plan on devouring. Mmmmm cheesy goodness in mere minutes.
Below is a repost of a picture taken in Glenn's parking lot. Birry is smashing lauren's car. Why does Birry smash? Did lauren's car do something offensive? Is it because he's the Juggernaut, bitch? No, its because he's Birry. And BIRRY SMASH!
This past week has been so freakin amazing. Mamma Erin, Tim, Jorge, Lauren, Kelsea, Aaron, Samia, Lauren, Chuck and Dale gave me a suprise party at the 4th of July park Tuesday. Love love love. The cake was bangin and those PB Sandwiches were nomlicious as well. Then, we all (Jorge, Erin, Dale, Tim, and Samia) went to Erin's house and played some intense croquet and then the Wii. I dominate all at Super Smash Bros. Brawl xD xD xD The rest of the week is almost a blur lol. I hung out with Caitlin and John (Josh's older brother) at the mall Friday. I bought this awesome chain with the Triforce on it and another necklace at Hot Topic. Then I beasted Air Hockey :D Later that evening, I attended Samia's awesome party for her bday and played Bowling (sadly, not Wii Bowling). Annd then I went to Scott's house for a few hours before we headed over to Dale's for the night. Snugglin occured =D And today was Erin's party which was also ah-mazing. I'm still bouncy. I bought awesome books for people and I hope they enjoy them :)
I'm really sad to go back to MD Tuesday. I hate to leave NC in general. Everything is just so familar and full of (mostly) awesome memories. I went to Josh's house with Caitlin (where, obviously, his big brother was) and almost had a happiness overload. I effin LOVE the smell of his house. Its not like its anything special, but it just reminds me of him. Me and Caitlin pounced on his bed as well xD yeah, we're normal. But I should be hangin out with his parents tomorrow after everybody gets some Jesus. I was going to go to church tomorrow, but I never did see my mom today. And it would be quite akward for the both of us if the 1st time we saw each other was in the House of God (but at least she wouldn't be able to do anything..God don't like ugly bahah). So I'm really anxious and nervous about that. I mean, what do I even say? "Heyyy long time, no see...uhh got my stuff? Oh btw I'm going to college soon, you know, that place you told me I wouldn't make it to? Yeah, they want me there...so yeah.."
Blehh its gonna suck. I'm getting Tim's dad to come with me (hopefully). I'd rather not die or anything...
I can never recall
What it was I had ever to strive for?
As a youth, was it just to exist autonomously?
No, we don't wanna work
We just wanna fuck, swallow pills, and forget our curses
No, we don't need pigs like you
We follow the laws of our emptying veins
In this world of nothing for me
I'd be sooner destroyed
Vampire youth
Raise your cups to the ne'er-waning moon
Let its visage ring true!
To the hearts cold and blue
We're dying each moment free
We're all animals here
Flesh and blood, bone and dream
We're just impulses here
Just another piece of shit in the storm
Just another piece of shit!
SHIT! [Echoes]
[solo]
From the smelling of things it appears
This shit has come to a boil
Nighttime we shall rule as our own
While this hollow will sleep
We shall bark at the moon
In this world of nothing for me
I'd be sooner destroyed
In this world there is nothing for us
But the sound, but the sound!
Vampire youth
Raise your cups to the ne'er-waning moon
Let its visage ring true!
To the hearts cold and blue
We're dying each moment
We'll never sleep again
We'll be going fucking mad
Sin and Hell is all we will ever know
Just another piece of shit
Miasma by the black dahlia murder. Very good song.
On an unrelated note, I need someones help. anyone, strech out the hand of help, tell me i am loved. please just remind me, or you may find a grave man.
Sweetly she looked at me,
In a way no one could see.
And as the sky turned a beautiful red
And it was made of all she said.
As the colors and woes of the world
Were curved and hurled
It was her and I,
Living sweetly in the sky.
A trip was made
As this sobriety did fade
And making me a pawn
Of this perscribed dawn
She passed me my sweet addiction
So to somehow ease my affliction
And a clouding of my judgement
The smell of the future, oh so pungent
I will do this, for you my sweet,
Now please pass me just one more treat.
Voices now do consume my head
Eat another, or wind up dead.
Swallowing away my troubles,
Living my life in a prescription bubble.
A shot of hypocracy does make my stomach turn
And as we press on, my body does burn
We no know bounds
As that fateful nurse makes its rounds
Given things that make me fucking sick
I guess I'm not that big of a prick.
Brake me
For i forsake me.
Become me
I unravel me
Burden the souls that be
We make a world see.
We are in hiding, this carnal obsess
Making me feel like shit, (give it to me) I like it best.
Divine nature makes this old bones sick
Kill me off, you got one less prick.
Use me,
I want you to abuse me
Destroy me
I do hope you enjoy me
End
Rawr!
Yeah, I'm a little annoyed at the moment. Apparently my time card, due to the indiscretion of my coworkers, had to undergo extensive review. Due to this, I don't know if I'm going to get paid on time. That blows. Big time.
In other, much happier news, I'm going to see Lauren tonight, and I absolutely cannot wait until 5 o'clock so I can go. I connived myself out of working tomorrow (funny how I was just looking down my nose at my coworkers...) so I'm getting to spend this afternoon and a good chunk of tomorrow with my wonderful, amazing, too-good-to-be-true girlfriend. I'm fairly excited to be hitting up target tonight, because an Icee sounds absolutely delish right now, and I doubt that craving will subside any time soon.
I haven't had much music lately, because I can't seem to locate my head phones, and there are always people using the ones that are here. That's ok though, my Bright Eyes Cd has been holding me over for the time being. I really do feel like typing more here, but due to my inability to control my nerdy urges, I was up late playing video games, so now I think I'm going to sit here with my eyes closed and try to be inconspicuous for a while.
