And this too. My mom had to come cause I was 17 so she could sign the waver. Sorry about the screaming. She thought I died.

Does anyone else ever read up on their number one worst fucking nightmare when they can’t sleep? Especially if it’s something that could, theoretically, happen? And something that you personally believe WILL happen in your lifetime because humans are absolute idiots? No? Just me? Well fuck, it’s a terrible idea. Let’s hope that deterrence remains effective far into the...

Worst week ever.
Get fired. Get sick. Realize the guy I’ve been interested in for 4 months is one of the biggest assholes I’ve ever met. Tonight better be fun and take my mind off of things :(
And to find out that at my other job, I’m now only getting 4 hours a week again. Done with everything. I need to find a good job, a winning lottery ticket, and maybe someone who doesn’t make me feel...
“I’ve been busy so much lately that every time I get some time to spend I end up drunk or sleeping in” …story of my life.

Awesome night
Frank Turner was opening and he got more cheers than the headliner. Don’t know what else to say except he better come back soon.
It needs to hurry up and be 4 o clock.
At 4, the lovely Kelsey comes to pick me up and we’re gonna grab dinner and drinks and hang out for a few hours- then I get to see Frank Turner. Should be a fantastic night. SO excited, been looking forward to tonight for months. In case you don’t read my blog, I LOVE Frank Turner’s music an insane amount.

I can still watch it on my phone and the day that I can’t is the day that I seriously consider cancelling my netflix account. Best show ever.

Worst feeling
It sucks when you forget all about a person who you used to like but kinda jerked you around/wasn’t worth it and then you run into him and all of a sudden he’s back in your head. I was in a perfectly good mood until that happened tonight. Lame!

Day 13: your favorite quote
I don’t know, I have a lot. Here’s one I like.
“Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and...

Day 12: the best advice you’ve ever heard, or ever...
This is lame too, but probably “Do what you love, nothing will hold you back if you want it bad enough”.
I mean, everyone encounters obstacles on their way to success, but if you don’t know what you want to do yet after high school, then explore yourself and you’ll figure it out. It took me almost 3 years to have the courage and ambition to go to school for what I love to...
Day 11: the worst advice you’ve ever heard, or...
This probably isn’t the WORST advice I’ve ever been given, and it’s kind of a lame one, but the first thing that comes to mind is “Don’t be so picky about who you date.”
So I’m supposed to just force myself into having feelings for someone so I can have a boyfriend? Stupid. I’ve tried that once, didn’t work. I’ll date a guy if I actually...

Day 10: what you think when you hear the words “be...
I think it’s shitty advice, just in the sense that it’s such common sense. Be whoever the hell you are and don’t change yourself for anyone BUT yourself. I guess it’s kind of self explanatory. I don’t think anyone really knows who they are anyway. Everyone’s constantly discovering and reinventing themselves. I take be yourself to mean more be who you want to be....
Day 9: things that make you happy

outdoor concerts
summer
those first days in late spring where you can really FEEL the sun on your back
being able to actually see the stars
laughing
the ocean
hiking
camping

Day 8: things that make you sad

religious extremism
fear
rejection

boredom
finding out that friends aren’t really friends

friends saying that i’ve changed for the worse

Day 6: something you would like to change about...
I’d like to be more organized and be more helpful to my parents and focused on the future as opposed to having fun, but a big part of me says ‘this is your youth. the best time of your life. make the most of it’. Uh, I need to work on my confidence a bit. I wish I was less awkward. I wish I didn’t get so hung up on every member of the opposite sex I like who just wants to...

Day 5: something you would change about the world
I would change so much about the world if I could. People wouldn’t be so fucking nasty to each other. There wouldn’t be so much greed and starvation for power and money. People who are more fortunate than others would realize and actually try and do something about it. Religion wouldn’t be pushed on anyone. There would be more compassion and less aggression. There would be more...

Day 4: how you think your life would change if you...
My dream is kind of to be happy, which I already am to some degree, so I guess it wouldn’t change drastically in that sense. However, I’d love to travel for a living, see the world, and fall in love. So I guess I’d be pretty nomadic.
