Well Day 5 is coming to a close. Tomorrow is the Wednesday the 31st and I am officially starting college. I only have 2 classes tomorrow which is cool but at the same time it kind of makes me a little sad because I won't have anything to do from 12.10 until the end of the day. I don't have to work tomorrow so hopefully I can find something to keep myself occupied. Today was a good day for the most part. I worked from 11.00-5.30 so I did make some money. I went to Waldenbooks after work and bought a $20 dollar gift card for my mom for her birthday which was today. Since work I've pretty much just sat around and relaxed a bit. I played a little CS and got to talk to both April and Craig for a while which was good. It made me happy at least. The underOATH concert that I am going to is coming up this Sunday and should be great. Also I hope to go to another concert on September 13th. It's a Tuesday which is lame but maybe I'll be able to get someone to go with me. That one is for Emery. If I can go to that it will be awesome. |

Technically it is really Day 5 but for all intensive purposes it has been 4 days since the love of my life began living at college. Today wasn't all that bad actually. I felt pretty sad in the morning but I was able to talk to April a few times before I went off to work. Throughout most of the morning I ate different things and tried to watch tv. Luckily there was a rock countdown and another show with more rock type videos of MTV2 this morning. Other than that I was just basically bored and wishing I could see April. I worked from 3.00-11.00 during which time I was really occupied and I still thought of my baby but wasn't really sad to the point where I only felt like going to sleep. I got to talk to Billy at work too. Apparently he almost died today on his motorcycle, but he was ok and definitely is a fun kid to work with. Tomorrow, or later today rather I'll be working from about 11.00-5.30. It's also my mom's birthday so I think I'm going to go out to Waldenbooks after work and get her a gift card. |

Over the past three days I've felt many things. I've been depressed at home, and both pissed off and then fairly happy when I was at work. On the 25th into the 26th I slept for about 14 hours because I just didn't want to be awake. Depression is no fun. Even the next day was pretty terrible. Since I didn't have to work on either Thursday which was the 25th or Friday the 26th. On Friday I was in just as terrible a mood as the day before. Completely depressed and no idea what to do with myself. Again, I went to sleep really early and despite the attempts of my friends from work to try and get me to do something I just decided to sleep. Saturday night and this morning I got to work which was probably a good thing because I got to stop wallowing in my own self pity and went and made some money. Granted it wasn't much because I don't really get paid that much but that isn't the point. To be blatantly honest the past few days have been absolutely horrible for me but today I did some thinking at work and realized there are a lot of things that I can't control and rather than whine about it I may as well just get on with my life and just be happy about the things around me that are good. Since I've decided to not care as much about the things I can't control I actually have been feeling a lot better. Also with work and school coming up I have a lot of other things to think about so that makes me happy. |

So things got a little rocky, but everything is back on track I think. I went to the zoo with April a couple of days ago and it was cool and all but as a whole the day wasn't so great. Long story short, I laughed, I cried, and now I'm fine and still as much in love as when it all began 4 months and 1 day ago. Now to be perfectly honest yesterday was the 28th and I knew it was an important day but the fact of the matter is that when it's summer I never know what date goes with what day. I really didn't forget about the 28th, I just didn't realize that yesterday was that day.
Tonight I'm supposed to be going Midnight Bowling with Redner's Crew and a few other people. It should be fun. Hopefully it doesn't end up like last week though with me driving people home because Troy decided to be an asshole. He's still cool though. And hopefully I won't be throwing in $20 dollars at the Dump to pay for a bunch of people's food since they didn't feel like putting money in. It should be a good time though anyway. |

I don't really like baseball at all but going to the Phillies game tonight was enjoyable. I went with my mom and dad. They were losing the game 8-4 when we left before the 7th inning and ended up losing 9-7. We went to Fridays to eat before and then down to the game. We had pretty sweet seats 31 rows up from the third base line and I got to see Pat Burrell hide from a ball that was hit out to him. It was hilarious. Other than that I bought the Hopesfall cd A Types and have been looking for concerts to go to in the next month or so. I've found Dead Poetic, Rise Against, The Used, and possibly Finch but I'm not sure about the last one. No matter what though I'm going to the Warped Tour this year and it's going to be sweet. I can't wait.
I went out to eat lunch with April today. It was fun and she is so great. I love her. Maybe I'll get to see her tomorrow before/after work. I'll be there from 2-10. Should be fun... I'm going to bed I guess now. But first I need to get some CZ in. |

So it's now July 11th. It's been a very long time since I updated. Much has happened over the past few weeks but I don't really remember any specifics. I played mini-golf and whooped ass a few times. I've attended a few graduation parties been hanging out with friends for most of my summer. Other than that I've been working about 30-35 hours per week at Redner's. I worked this morning. I had a pretty good time. I came home around 3:30 and changed the oil in my car which by the way now has Intake, Exhaust, a new Shift Knob, and a new E-Brake Handle. Tonight I went with Troy to the pool hall in Pheonixville. We played on a table with blacklights which was pretty cool and he beat me 4-3. I just came in 38th out of approximately 300 in a no limit tournament on Bodog.
This summer has been fairly eventful so far. I took April to the Valley Forge Park yesterday and we still have to go to the Zoo this summer. That should be a lot of fun. I'm going to the Phillies game with my parents on Friday. It'll be my first time in the new park so that will be interesting as well.
Warped Tour is coming up soon. It's going to be amazing. I really can't wait. I hope that no one important goes into the pit when Atreyu or Zao plays. It's just not a smart thing to do. Pretty girls don't belong in the middle of a metalcore pit. Getting punched, kicked, and stomped on doesn't really do much for the appearance. Either way though its going to be outstanding.
Speaking of outstanding, no work tomorrow. WOOOO! I get to sleep for the first time in many days. |

So I worked the past two nights from 4-10 each time. Yesterday it was just Shaun and me. Tonight it was me, Lacy and Brandon. Shaun worked in dairy. It was a pretty good night and we got a lot done according to Shortpants. Lacy offered to race me after work but I just told him it was pointless because he would smoke me. It's true. My car isn't fast enough and I'm not good enough with a manual car yet to contend. Speaking of which I'm still deciding whether or not it would be a good idea to buy anything for it. Intake and exhaust is what I'm thinking about at the moment but I'm not sure. Anyway I'm done working until next Wednesday which is sweet.
Tomorrow should be a good day. School is going to suck probably like always especially since I have gym. After that though I'm going to come home and relax and then spend some time with April hopefully. Unfortunately I'm out of money again as I have been every week for the past month or so but Thursday is pay day so that's good. It won't help for tomorrow of course but it will still help. I need to start saving up money again so I can buy sweet stuff for April or things for my car. Prom is coming up in a few days. It should be a good time but not as great as it's going to be afterward down at the beach. That's what I'm looking forward to the most. It's about time to go to sleep though. I haven't been sleeping much lately and I don't expect that to change but I can try.
*NOTE: Tune your radio to 93.3 in the mornings. If you used to listen to Y100 you may find a pleasant surprise :) |

Sweet. That pretty much sums up my weekend. Yesterday was great. I didn't work this Saturday because I was able to get Ricky to take my hours at work. Instead I found a much better way to spend my time. I got to hang out with April almost the entire day. From about 2:00-4:30 we went to Cliffhangers for rock climbing for her sister Emily's birthday party. That was fun and I basically ripped the wall a new one not to mention everyone else in the building. After that we came back to my house and just got to hang out until about 9:00 when Dan showed his face in my house and ate my water ice. We went to the movies to see Unleashed with a bunch of kids from school. Richter, Julia, Pep, Davis, and Keith. It was a sweet movie and a good time. After that we actually came back to my house and I took April home around 12:30. All in all it was a great day.
Today on the other hand I worked in the morning from 8:00-3:30. It was better than working second shift because I was more or less on my own and just my own boss and for the first time in a very long time I was able to leave on time. Lacy and Dip both worked dairy so that was a fun time getting made fun of by those two. After work I came home and did some homework for probably the first time in a month or two. I ate dinner and then went over to visit one of my favorite people. We picked up pizza from Papa John's, and later picked up Emily from basketball. After that I suggested we take a walk which turned out to be a good idea. Had a chance to learn about each other and myself. We made some brownies for Emily's birthday and then just sat outside and talked. I had a really good time. Tonight was by far the longest time yet that it has taken us to say goodbye. Of course I don't mind but I just wanted to make a note of it. Bedtime now. School tomorrow. It's almost over and I'm happy about that among other things :) |

I'm tired and my head hurts. Have a headache. It will hopefully be gone soon or I'll just fall asleep and it will be gone by tomorrow. Nothing especially exciting happened in school today. At least not that I can remember. Except for Physics. Since we have nothing to do and Justin Sachs loves pain he persuaded Dr. P to get the Van De Graaf Generator which is just a ball that has electric current flowing through it. You touch it and it shocks you and then if you touch someone else while you are holding it you can shock them. It was fun. Both Dan and I could get the current to arc through our feet into the ground which was interesting. I could feel the current just going through my body and out of my toes into the ground. We made a chain of people to shock Davis which was hilarious cause he screamed like a little girl and ran around the room. Played a little Trivial Pursuit and Family Feud on the computer with Dave and Jon while people were shocking each other and destroying electronic things with it. Gannon's calculator got completely messed up from a shock that came through Schollen and some of the screen turned black.
I worked again from 4-10 but Tom was managing instead of Shortpants so things went a lot better than I initially expected. We got out about 20-30 minutes after 10 but I wasn't upset because Tom actually did work and helped us out a lot.
Anyway tomorrow should be fun. Apparently there is going to be some rock climbing going on. No work. I'm going to be loving it as soon as this headache goes away. |

School just keeps getting worse and worse especially since April wasn't there today. Not much happened at all. Went out to lunch with Craig and then Hafer and Amanda joined us but other than that my school day was more or less worthless. After school I cashed my check and went to get my hair cut. I came home and washed my car and then went over to the mall to buy the newest Leftover Crack CD. Punk-Ska... good stuff actually. Also I went to see Sahara with Troy. Started off pretty slow, almost fell asleep in the first 5 minutes but it picked up and was actually a pretty good movie I thought. At about 10:00 I got to see April. It was only for a little while but still so worth it. Well, I guess I have another day of school and work to look forward to tomorrow. On the bright side it is the last day of the week, and I am not working on Saturday. |
