3/13/06 04:26 pm - You've got this new head filled up with smoke.

yeap. i am now, FINALLY, the proud owner of an apple computer. my ibook came on the 7th.

i have a sweet little media center i set up in my room.  peep:


i have been working a lot, and thus, making lots of money to fund these big ideas ive had...but man, ill never have enough.

i have also decided to keep the focus until she is paid off, and then finance a new trans am while keeping the focus as a daily driver.  for now, ill probably be building up the focus.  future upgrades will include svt high intensity discharge headlights, svt euro wheels, svt lowering springs, focussport exhaust, roush turbocharger kit, 70mm throttle body, focussport intake, cams, cam gears, underdrive pulley, etc.  i am very excited, but i will have a lot of hard work to get there.

spring has given us a taste.  i want very badly for it to be warm.  i ordered a pair of shorts from ae with this gift card i had.  i did that to spite winter.  the equinox is coming.

work soon.  bye.

ps.  my ipod is still for sale.  price lowered to $200 bucks.  see a couple entries ago for pictures and information.

2/27/06 02:48 pm - You won't ever get too far from me.

new background.

i decided to wash up the focus. she looks good. i got some shots of her new headlights. they are snazzy. too bad im getting rid of her for a convertible mustang gt.

Focus )

my ibook will be here by march 7th.  i cant handle the excitement for that.  also, see summer, mustangs, trans ams, camaros, melissa, friends, pools.

pop punk rules.

2/17/06 03:50 am - The Hook brings you back.

Me: I feel like some Hook.
Adam: The movie?

i cant wait until my ibook comes in the united states postal delivery subsystem.

just when i thought spring was approaching, we have the day after tomorrow hit the mitten. frick.

today at work, i lost my keys. i went outside to look near my car, and they were sitting on the ground right next to it. i got fucking lucky.

i want the saves the day cd to hit the screeeeetz.

when spring comes, i want to clean the focus spotless and listen to mid-90's pop rock until i explode. for now, my only motivation comes from adams powerbook which is playing some tunes, such as hook. and "all for you" by sister hazel.

tomorrow.

ps. my ipod is still for sale. everyone keeps saying they are going to buy it, and then realize they dont have any money. see my last entry.

2/3/06 05:16 pm - iPod for sale.


iPod for sale. )

1/25/06 04:14 pm - Let's tune out by turning on the radio. You're my love, you're all I need.

i made a new background dedicated to the format. i cant wait to see them with motion city soundtrack.

i havent been doing THAT much. i barely work now that labor is down. someone want to give me a another job?

ive been buying lots of stuff. i bought a dvd burner, headlights, a shiftknob, and lots of clothes.

melissa and i have been together for 3 years as of monday. that is a long time. i treated her to bennigans.

spring is so close that i can taste it, and it tastes great.

lots of shows coming up, such as: saves the day/circa survive/moneed/down to earth approach, starting line/cartel/gastbys american dream/copeland, boys night out/armor for sleep/chiodos, and motion city soundtrack/the format/the matches/men women and children. not to mention, we have a sweet local show coming up on saturday the 28th.

yeah. i havent touched this thing, so tell me something nice.

1/5/06 12:18 am - They need somethin' to rely on, you get high on all types of drugs when all you really need is love.

talib kweli is one of the best emcee's of our time.

anywho, i havent updated in a grrriiiip.

christmas brought lots of goodies. and some cologne, which i enjoy having lots of. melissa is darling. i took her on a shopping spree, and out to din din at chilis.

for new years, i got cruuunnk. but who wants to hear that? not me. spent it with melissa. anyway, stopped at aj's. went to lindsay grahams and got warmed up. went to this dude masons makeshift nightclub bullshit. wasnt too bad, but the man decided to come break it up, so went back to lindsays and went nuts. brent mccall was present throughout and i was very very very happy for that reason. we were laughing uncontrollably to mitch hedberg.

we went to dinner at the mountain of fire for melissas 19th birthday. it was yummy.

lately, ive also been working. that is...that.

now, im sitting here with ol beeeeean.

comment fuckers.

12/26/05 03:46 am - The poshest scarf on the warmest day. "It's enough to make you give up," she said.

welp...just as everyone has already said, christmas has come and gone.  the new year approaches, sealing the deal on quite an indifferent year.  my experiences this year were vast.  i am overjoyed to have come so far and to have met so many amazing people.

at any rate, back to work tomorrow.  i was rich for a few days there and boy, was that ever bitchin.

shopping sprees and dinner for christmas with melissa.  it was great.

im going to the casino to blow some more money after work tomorrow.  wish me luck.

sleep.

12/21/05 02:13 am - Beaches make the sand white, make the sand all romantic and shit.

hmmmm..a 34 hour workweek is tough. today, i raked in 9 grand. if i was on commission, i would have made like 500 bucks today alone. im extremely tired. hung out with melissa the past couple nights. we watched the island last night. that movie is good, but it full of advertisements. the first five minutes include blatant ads from puma, aquafina, xbox, and aquafina. tonight we watched havoc, which is pretty much the worst movie ever created. literally. watch it...its stupidity will induce vomiting. after work, i went browsing for more christmas gifts. instead, i visited kayla at abercrombie, and we had a dinner date on her break. it was like old times. im tired. my jaw hurts from chewing gum. i need to get to delta and pick my classes tomorrow. then i work until midnight. visit myspace and give my ego a handjob.

12/19/05 03:39 am - Snails see the benefits, the beauty in every inch.

i like the format. yessssss. im at ol beeeean's, hanging out.

this weeked was coo oo oooooo, i suppose. ben and i didnt do shit friday. if i remember correctly, we stayed at adams. thats always fun. i bought some new clothes from the eagle that is american. i also bought me some pumas. suede as fuck. HUMMMMMMMMMMM. 

saturday, i got out of work and dicked off for a few minutes. i decided to drag myself to that show at good shepard. it was gay until onyx played. luckily, a lot of my friends ended up being there so i wasnt a loser. 

those little kids in the pit are bitches. most of them need a good ass kicking. luckily, watson and i were on hand to make sure it was in good supply, should things get heavy. we had some very nice ladies in front of us and these fuckpieces think it is cool to jump all over them and inflict pain on their frail little bodies. that being said, watson and i had to lay some niggas out. more so him than i, since he is the bigger, stronger man. i did, however, have to bring the smackdown to some of the young fellows. they can dance and beat each other off all night long, but its kinda ridiculous to elbow and kick girls in the head...am i right?

after the show, i went to melissas. i realized it was a little ridiculous that i blew her off to do something else, so i went over and we watched 40 year old virgin. had an excellent time. that movie is quite funny, as most of you probably already know. i fell asleep until like 5am, at which point i went home.

then, i slept until work today. some dude had quite an attitude with me so i had to set him straight. he went walking out the door. tip: DO NOT try to tell an employee the proper procedure work at their workplace, because chances are, you approached me in the first place because youre an idiot. christmas is soon. and you awready knew dat!
