What Did You Expect From Me?

Oh man, the first day of school is a week away and my sleeping pattern is so screwed up. I actually went to bed around 11:30 last night, buttt...I didn't actually fall asleep till probably around 1ish. But I got up around 9 this morning, so I guess that's progress? ha.

I had a bad dream that I had a non-existant locker and I was running all over the school just trying to find it and it just wasn't there. I hate dreams involving school.

I don't want to go and deal with all those people again....can't I just skip it and become a hermit and never leave my room again? My room doesn't talk....it's not annoying, it doesn't judge me. It's just here....somewhere where I am pretty much all day....every day....and I don't want to leave it. I have everything I need here, except for you know food, a way to cook the food, and a bathroom. I'm sure I'll feel differently come say Sunday night...I'll be all...I can't wait to see so and so...blah. But right now I don't want to go.....I just want to be left alone. I've gotten used to entertaining myself...and not interacting with people.

It's funny really, I'm 17 years old, I have my drivers liscense and all of that....and I'd rather just sit at home....not really but that's all I seem to do. I guess I'm not your sterotypically american teenage girl. I don't go out every night/day, and I don't text 24/7. Oh well I guess.

I Know, I Know, But.....

So my hair sucks pretty majorly right now. I'm not even kidding. I know I said I wouldn't harp on this anymore but it's seriously bad... I had hope earlier this week too...it looked pretty good. I have pictures to prove it!

See....it was looking good and then after my 3 days that it looked that good I washed it...and now one side is all blah and the other is all flipped out and blah...and my bangs some how have gotten flipped out too....I just pulled them back today when we were on a bike ride....but gah! I wish my hair looked like that picture everyday and that's without any hair product or a straightener. But honestly hair days like these just make me want to scream. Oh shut up...we're all vain to some degree. I have to get my Senior Picture for the year book taken this week....Gah! It's Thursday....so I NEED a good hair day on Thursday. Maybe I can just send in that pic? haha...I like that one.

And I think I like Today, I think It's Good, It's Something I can't get my head around....

So let's recap on the things Sarah has won in the past two weeks shall we?
-Two Warped Tour Tickets which unfortunately I didn't get to use.
-A DVD from the band, The Graduate about the making of their latest album which I have yet to watch but I'm going to, I swear.
-And today I got in the mail a signed poster from a band called Scenes From a Movie. I like the way Adam, whoever he is...lol, signed his name. So just for that I'm going to put it up on my wall later! :D

Oh and new NFG song today...well not an original but they posted their cover of "Iris" on their myspace feat. Will from Cartel. It's pretty good. It makes me even more excited for FTSTYS2.

Oh and....I just got an email saying I'm getting more free stuff from my movie crew you know that new movie with Nicole Kidman in it. So that's awesome as well. Yeah I have to do like the motherload of all dishes but every good thing that's happened today....has just canceled out all the blahness of dishes.

We Want the Airwaves Back!

So I was watching the news and saw loads of kids I know. Crazy but cool.

Anyways here's a list of albums/artist that are currently recording that I'm pretty excited about that are coming out in the future.

-From The Screen To Your Stereo 2 by New Found Glory, Sept. 18th
-Combinations by Eisley, Aug 14th
-Rise or Die Trying by Four Year Strong, Sept. 18th
-New Jack's Mannequin! Yesss!
-New Jimmy Eat World
-And will you not hate me forever if I said I was a tinsey bit looking forward to the new Angels and Airwaves album? Because yes we all know Tom is an ass now but .....We Don't Need to Whisper was a fairly decent album.

And my mind is drawing a major blank right now. But I guess that's ok.

Oh and if you come to my house the front is like uhhh naked! No seriously, we had this big ugly huge pine tree that like overtook the front of our house. Today it got cut down....so it's gone. So is the other dead tree that was in our front yard. So I guess now I'll have to stand outside and wait for people so they know it's my house? haha.

Ah! only 10 days left until school starts well not counting today anways. I'm actually starting to miss school lunches is that wierd? You know since I don' t actually have to make them and they usually consist of more than a sandwhich. Plus CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH CHOCOLATE FROSTING!!! Dude they better have that the first day haha.

I'm hungry so I'm going to go wait for the parents to get home from the bro's registration/the store.

You Save the Girl, You Save the World

So this kid continues to make me smile when I'm least expecting it. Which pretty much makes any day extremely better. It's probably almost better than seeing NFG live...I'll let you know when I actually get to see them to tell you which feeling is better. But for now...this feeling is just the best thing in the world.

Another oh so Happy and Positive Blog.....

So it's Tuesday....and since I'm sitting here at 10:30 in the morning blogging I bet you call all guess that I'm not at Warped. So yeah. Ah what can I say? Bad luck just follows me around. I should be down there in line right now...but nope I just woke up like 15 minutes ago so yeah.

I guess I'll just go and watch ER at 11, then Full House, and then The OC on Soapnet heh. Back to the same old where the most exciting thing that happens all day is like getting the mail because you never know what it may bring. I'm always getting sent stuff like t-shirts, stickers, ect.

What a way to end the summer? eh.....I'm not even going to say anymore about it.

I seriously fail at life.

So I think I'll always hate my hair.....no matter what I may do to it. It sucks even worse now that I got it cut. I'll always be hair illiterate.....or maybe I just have that low of self-esteem that I'll always find something wrong with my hair. Eh. Whatever it still sucks.

So so far no sign of Erin....I've pretty much exhausted all of my other options for finding a way to go to Warped on Tuesday. So chances are it probably won't happen. I guess I won't have to worry about dehydration then. Heh. And then maybe I can get a straightener and either make my hair even more shitateous orrr remotely better heh.

I went to registration today....my ID pic is actually kind of decent...well that was before I got my hair chopped off. Only 2 weeks left....it's kind of depressing....especially having to face my peers with this crappy ass hair ahhh I need to stop harping on that.

Oh something good did happen today I guess....I won another online contest, I got a DVD in the mail today, from a band called The Graduate, don't listen to them currently but I guess I'll have to watch the DVD they sent me and find out if I like them or not.

I just... I don't know. I guess I should just stop blogging right now.

Frustrations....

So Lastfm is being dumb and I have a 113 cached tracks waiting to be submitted. I've tried everything I can think of to get them to submit but all have failed. It's frustrating because my neighbors and friends tracks on lastfm are submitting...gah.

Anyways I'm still on a quest to find someone to go to Warped with. I have to call Chris today. Because I know he really wants to go and go with me....because we're show buddies and have good times like that. But if he's not able to go/get us there. Then I have a couple of options. I either wait for Erin to get back hopefully before Monday....which I know she'll be back on Monday for make-up registration at school....and pray to God she wants to go and doesn't have to work. Or....I got a msg on Facebook from Keiara and she seemed like she wanted to go....and I know she has a car but her parents didn't let her drive down there to almost see Fall Out Boy haha. I guess my last option is to just say....crap I guess I don't get to go and 70 bucks of tickets have gone to waste. I can't even give somebody else the paper to go....you have to show ID and it has to match the name on the paper. So that sucks.

Whatever happens, I still wish I'd get another wedding gig lined up. I'm starting to run low on funds, and I'll be especially low if I go to Warped. I guess after next Tuesday I'll start applying for real jobs haha. You know so I might actually have some money to put towards College and or a car to get to college eh....my mom says she'll let me have 20 buckers out of every pay check for play money haha. Yeah she wants me to save....eh. Especially since college kids will be leaving soon. I need to hit up Subway and all those other fine dining establishments :-) Hey, maybe I'll even be able to still do weddings on the side.

Alright well....I shall keep this updated on the happenings of Warped 07' and such.

I WON!

I just got an email saying that I WON WARPED TOUR TICKETS! Now...I just need a way to get there. It's only been my dream for years to go...and both of my family's vehicles are dead in the water. BUT I WON! So....whoever gives me a ride....gets a free ticket! I still can't believe I won....wow.
