Today is a Yellowcard day.

Oh, and today is going to be a good day. Why? Because I said so.

I can't find a wall to pin this to
They're all coming down, since I've found you
I just wanna be where you are tonight
I run in the dark looking for some light
And how will we know, if we just don't try
We won't ever know

P.S. I'm not writing in yellow on purpose.

I see, see shadows
Of who we'll always be
When I drive, drive these roads
That made our memories...

You're a menace! You, you--hack.

So basically... here I am.

Michael totally just brought me strawberries. They were delicious.

I have a few more sales appointments to do this week. Oh joy! And for once, I'm not being sarcastic.

Has anything else happened lately? Eh, nothing real note-worthy.

The violin version of Such Great Heights is awesome. :D

Do you remember when?

How long has it been?
1945, you opened my blue eyes
To see a whole new light
Do you remember when?
-Dear Bobbie, Yellowcard


I forgot about how much I used to love SHS band. You would think that I would start rejoicing about my "wonderful" senior year of band, but there isn't much to rejoice about. Sure, I won the John Phillips Sousa award and so I was going to be a Music Education major. So what? That doesn't mean I enjoyed myself. I simply was going to miss being in high school band and it was hard. So I became bitter. I lost a lot of good friends. I didn't even want to go to band awards that year. However, I got to college and realized I missed the SHS music department from time to time. I did have Alma's Kiltie Marching Band which helped but it wasn't the same. This year, I came back to band awards and realized a few things. 1. I grew up. I did things I told myself I wouldn't, I learned from my mistakes, and looked back on my success stories. 2. I'm not supposed to fix everything! I always think everything that falls apart is all my fault but it's not. Some things in life are supposed to remain mysteries and many things don't get solved ASAP. 3. I really just loved how the night went. Everyone who got their awards deserved them and I re-realized how much I loved everyone in the room. The band slideshow was pretty sweet too.


Point is, I've changed for the better. My senior year shadow is continuing to fade. Thank goodness.


And this is what I remember. Do you remember?

I'm gonna marry the night

This song is stuck in my head. Ahhh!

I'm going traveling again.

Ann Arbor(family) + Grand Rapids(friends) + Alma(drumline) = Joyness! :D


If this is life, I'm pretty okay with it.

P.S. I want this shirt.
