[08 Nov 2004|01:33am] hmmmm... im sorta kinda failing community college ... again... thats pretty much hilarious since i could probably teach the classes or at least tutor in them. i just dont care. at all. clu is kinda my safe gaurd but i cant study because im always playing music or working. i cant really keep doing this for much longer cause im more and more tired, but its fun and i think its what i need at the moment. i saw death cab and pgmg... both were awful... pgmg used to be so fucking good ... then they got so terrible... and death cab is like what you make infants listen to if you went them to go to sleep... assuming they are gay. shows coming up: ours friday ours some other day this month pinback death from above thats what im looking foward to in the next month.... and thats about all im looking foward to in the next month seeing my mom and brother will kick some ass too... thats all 3 %|>>>>

[12 Sep 2004|11:44pm] [ music | Les Savy Fav- The Sweat Descends ] so im working at ritz camera, its kick ass... but one thing... if you are a teenage girl and like to take pictures of yourself in a tent in your underwear with your friends zoomed in on your ass... especially if that ass has moles and looks like a negative planetarium (athf for all you folks not with it) you probably shouldn't get them developed at ritz. 3 %|>>>>

[02 Sep 2004|01:25pm] [ music | Cursive- Art is Hard ] i start my job at ritz camera on monday.. so i assume i get to see comprising photos of random people. i think im selling the volvo and buying the greatest bass amp ever created. thats all 4 %|>>>>

[27 Aug 2004|01:59pm] [ music | Pink Floyd- Comfortably Numb ] all i do is play music and go to school for a very small amount of time. i got a job at ritz camera in the mall which kicks ass... community college is awesome. 2 %|>>>>

by the way you smell i can tell that you're 15 [04 Aug 2004|11:54pm] [ music | The Blood Brothers- The Shame ] so im in chicago... well the suburbs or whatever. basically all i do is go to the lake with my brother who is 7 and play everque.... um and ... well lets just leave it at the lake. eh its been fun, kinda wanna get home to play with the band. midwestern people are wierd... hot girls with dorky guys that listen to shitty music. most guys over 18 have lame tatoos and are fat/buff and wear backwards hats. i think i broke my toe.. its all swollen and black and i have to use a crutch thingy. i got my dad to pay for moorpark so thats good, now i just need to handle registration for my car.. but whatever. other than that nothing much... haven't drank in too long... stopped drinking soda though. missed the icarus line show in LA which fucking sucks, but darin said it was awesome.. i guess he and chase were like sitting next aaron and travis and it was only like them 4 since they go their early. but on the plus side... julia + me + ashlee simpson = oh yeah. that can be taken in a few ways.. but im not gonna clarify. 3 %|>>>>

[03 Jul 2004|12:28pm] [ music | The Icarus Line- Feed a Cat to Your Cobra ] last night me casey and darin went to fuck yeah fest at the echo. it was pretty bad ass, we saw wires on fire and they were way good. all the other bands sucked though, but hey, it was free. eh, im addicted to my so called life, but dont tell anyone. and, my eyes..... are thirsty as hell. 1 %|>>>>

[30 Jun 2004|04:00am] [ music | Pretty Girls Make Graves- The Teeth Collector ] colt hill has been defeated.... .... by the volvo. 5 %|>>>>

[26 Jun 2004|07:41pm] [ music | Radiohead- Paranoid Android ] went to the beach yesterday and today and surfed .. so much fun. feels really good to be back in the water. eh recording stuff looks like its getting screwed up which is sorta lame... hopefully it'll work out. other than that ive just been playing music, we have a show july 9th with red fig and BEFS... everyone loves BEFS so you should go. well im beat so im gonna get some chillaxin time in. 1 %|>>>>

we need money to burn [21 Jun 2004|02:24am] [ music | Spiritualized- Ladies and Gentlemen We are Floating in Space ] alright, well.... what do 4 bored people do in newbury park when trying to play light as a feather stiff as a board doesn't work out..... they go to a fucking graveyard at 12:30. the graveyard wasn't that bad, it was more sad seing baby graves. but we went to a corn field after... and as julia, brianne, alex and i start walking in it we realized that this was the dumbest thing ever. so julia brianne and i ran back only to find that we didn't know where the fuck alex was. we sat there listening and trying to peer over the top of the stalks of corn for like 20 minutes with no sign of him. so naturally we assumed he was dead. we heard weird ass fucking noises from behind the car and saw a continously shining light from behind a mountain... or as julia called it... the pyramids, cause we're in fucking egypt. anyways, after like 25 minutes of thinking alex is dead we here "MARCO!" from the corn and brianne and julia FREAK out and start screaming. now im not gonna say i didn't scream, because that would be lying... im also not gonna say that i didn't try to trip brianne and julia so that this corn monster apparently named marco could feast on them while i safely made it to the car... but boy was i fucking scared. after alex came out, we were all kinda bummed it wasn't marco the corn monster, but i guess alex is alright too. so back to the warehouse we went and thus ends another night of nothing to do in newbury park. 3 %|>>>>

god is seven [18 Jun 2004|12:19am] [ music | The Pixies- Monkey Gone to Heaven ] so i go over to the warehouse tonight to practice bass. just planning on going through some mars volta songs and some icarus line stuff, then maybe trying to write. when i get there, i get crazily tired and decide that the fact that i have two volume nobs instead of a tone and volume (wiring problem) was really pissing me off. ive never re-wired a guitar or bass before, but ive seen my dad do it and such so i figured i'd at least see what was up. i took the pickgaurd off and checked out the electronics. couldn't see any logical reason why the wiring would be causing two volume pots instead of tone and volume, so i decided that my dad must have accidentally made contact with either two wires or a wire and the pot when soldering. so bascially i just decdided to re-wire it. i got the two pots and a new jack. cut all the wire and took off the capacitor on the tone pot. ive never soldered before, but once again ive seen my dad do is, so i figured i'd try it. turned out to be pretty easy once i got the hang of it. it took me a while to wire the whole thing and i didn't notice that i was hovering really close to the wires when soldering. after about 15 minutes i kinda got light headed which i didn't mind. another 10 minutes and i had finished the job and needed to screw the pickgaurd back into place, but i was feeling way fucked up. i started getting a slight headache and got really dizzy and kinda quesy. i turned on the fan and just kinda stood around for a bit, but it didn't really go away. i figured there was nothing i could really do, so i plugged the bass in and it worked to my suprise, and for whatever reason, it had tone and volume.. go figure. anyways, im still fucking lightheaded and dizzy, i really hope i didn't fuck up my brain. but as far as i can tell im typing somewhat coherently.... if all of this is gibberish, please call an amublence cause that means ill prolly go into some sort of coma when i fall asleep. its only logical. anyways, im stoked that i can now wire guitars (in a way) and get terribly sick doing so. rock on. 1 %|>>>>

[13 Jun 2004|01:09am] [ music | The Shins- Kissing the Lipless ] this is the first time ive been really sad in quite a while. dunno why. well i do, but i dont want it to be because of that. i seriously wish i was some dumbass who didn't fucking feel so much. fuck i miss her. seriously, i had to fight the urge so hard today not to call her. its her birthday tomorrow. i hope she's happier than i am right now. maybe this is the last bit of love fighting to stay in me, but whatever it, it sucks. sucks when it feels like people are ignoring you, no one imparticular. just when you feel sad, it seems that you dont really matter to people. 1 %|>>>>

omgwtfbbq~!~~~!!!!!!!!! [10 Jun 2004|10:40pm] I SHIT YOU NOT I BEAT THE FUCKING INTRAWEB!!!!! now i can log on to the AOL all i want.... furthermore Indie rock! You're my most favourite type of music... Your music channels lots of emotion. On the top it seems simple, but underneath there's always a deep meaning... As your name you're independent from most of music! Stay that way! Good on you! There's so much variation in your style...from deep and thoughtful like The Stills, to happy go lucky like Belle & Sebastian, to dancy and catchy Franz Ferdinand, and back to boogie down Hot Hot Heat and The Rapture... What genre of rock are you? brought to you by Quizilla im pretty sure im the guy doing the dance type thing... yeah that defintaley would be me. >>>>

omgwtfbbq [10 Jun 2004|04:50pm] [ music | Mates of State- Ha Ha ] alright, well last night i was pretty much on the phone non stop from 10pm - 4am with tech support for my stupid freaken wireless networking thing. when i was carrying my computer upstairs so i could go online at like 4:20am i realized how creepily addicted i was to online stuff and what not... fuck it though. i couldn't quite stay awake long enough for captain planet which was a bummer. wheeler sure is cool, and poor mati.. got the crappy heart power, wtf is that? besides they always wuss out and decide to call captain planet, who has a green mullet... but still that show kicks a lot of ass. 3 %|>>>>

[09 Jun 2004|03:22am] [ music | The Icarus Line- Kiss Like Lizards ] You are the Elitist Prick. You're so consumed with being on top of indie trends that you've completely forgotten how to enjoy your once-hipster status. It may be too late for you.

sleep is for the weary [01 Jun 2004|02:34am] [ music | Led Zeppelin- Ten Years Gone Away/ The Rapture- Olio ] i shit you not i have insomnia... pretty sure its my dads fault... he actually yelled at me at 6 this morning when i was still up for having this problem. well that chapter i talked about earlier is back open, im happy. if i could sleep i'd be happier. played guitar in the whathouse for hours today, my fingers are totally destroyed, reminds me of the great days when i'd play for 12 hours a day. everyone who reads this (julia) needs to come to my show june 5th at the ymca; we are playing with insignia and respira, and we all know that you (julia) love them. so come at 6:30 and see us, we are rock n roll. so yeah.... im trying to get a job at borders, hope that works out. need to pay last month of rent, need to learn to sleep, need to start running again, need to get out my dads house and move in an apartment with a friend. lots of stuff on the list, the sooner this shit gets done the better; but at least i have a plan. im pretty sure im myspace friends with joe the singer of the icarus line... take that (julia). 1 %|>>>>

writing again [27 May 2004|01:38pm] i guess the kristina chapter of my life is over (for now?) and i would do every second of it over again. i hope she finds what she is looking for in life and is happy in the future. its sad i wasn't able to help her along the way, but if this is what she needs, it what she needs. im not gonna pretend im not devastated, i still love her, and she still loves me; being apart from the person you love is perhaps the most painful emotional strain a person can go through, but its for the best. i dunno if she reads this, but if you ever need anything or help in anyway, well, you have my number. now i guess im relocating to newbury park. dunno if its time to patch things up with my dad, or just migrate between friends homes. i just hope the band can be a good distraction for now until i get my life built back up again, but hey, the sun is shining so how can i not be happy. >>>>
