31 days.

Thats how long I've gone with out an update.

A lot can happen in 31 days.

As I mentioned in my last post, I was off to Warped Tour. I had an interview with Lennon lined up as well. Well....





It was amazing. Simply amazing. Lennon has got to be one of the nicest people I have ever met. It was so amazing to just sit there with her and talk.

Well we got to the venue at like 11:10 and got inside at 11:25 ish. Then my friend Kait and I saw that Avenged Sevenfold was playing at 11:30. We took off running towards the Brian stage and I mean running. I pushed past people and didn't stop until I was at that barrier. A7X was AMAZING!!!! I love them so much. I was kind of upset that they only did 4 songs though. But they were on first and they had a lot of technical problems. Shadows was getting quite pissed off. But still, their set was amazing. After they played we met up with Jeff, Lennon's manager, and he took us backstage to do the interview. That will be up on my site shortly. I haven't had the time to type it up lately. After the interview we walked around for a bit, looking at differend merch tents and what not. Because of the passes we got, we were able to go backstage and sit in the press pavlion if we wanted to, which may I add thats where everyone eats. So we went back there a few times to just sit and chill. It was nice to be away from the 10,000 screaming girls. We met Ryan, Lennon's bassist, and he was so nice to us. He told us to stand on the side of the stage to watch the show and that if we wanted to hang out, we could and I was just like '....okay!'. We didn't get to hang out with him though but we kept running into him. While we were waiting for Lennon-s set though, we were standing right outside of the press, pavilion area, talking to one of the security guards we had made friends with and I look down the hallway and whos walking past us? M. Shadows of Avenged Sevenfold. And hes completely shirtless. My jaw dropped and I went speechless. He smirked at us and said hey. I somehow squeaked out a hi. Ok to wrap up the rest of warped, saw Billy Talent, Coheed, and Thursday play. They were all amazing. Met a few people too, well outside of the press pavilion. I mean I talked to everyone there. It was so cool to just be back there and talk to some of these people that I love, that while talking to them, I didn't ask for pictures or anything like that. I didn't want them to think that I was some kind of teeny bopping fan. I wanted them to think like I was...well not. I mean I'm sure they know I was a fan, but I always think that people in bands sometimes hate when people make a big deal out of it. Anyways, I took a load of pictures, all which are here. The pics that I acutally got of me with some people are in my folder 'People I've Met' obviously.

So after warped things kind of went downhill for me. My sister's mother passed away. Shes actually my step sister but we are so close that we feel like we are sisters. So I did all I felt I could for her. I went to the 2nd day of viewings, and the funeral. I tried to get to the first day of viewings but I couldn't manage to get down there. Her mom was only 43 and she died of a heart attack. Its pretty scary when you think of it.

So moving on from the extremely depressing stuff...about a week or so after that happened, my mom slipped and fell while she was walking to the car to go and get her perscription. She slipped in a pupple of water that was leaking from the ceiling. The ceiling had already cracked and was starting to fall. It had obviously been going for a few days. But no one really goes downstairs so we never noticed it. I wasn't home when my mom fell, I was out with some friends. But when i came home she was still downstairs on the floor. Took me all night to get her up in bed. Our landlords came over the next day to look at it and they were trying to say that we purposely caused the leak. Oh yeah....your right. We wanted the leak to happen so my mom could slip and fall and hurt herself. I really don't like them much. My mom is still complaining of pain but won't go to the hospital no matter how much I beg her or tell her she needs to go.

I'm still jobless so I'm still poor. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go grey soon which sucks.

Went and saw Switchfoot at the state fair last night. They were actually really good live. Not one of my favorite bands but I'll admit they put on a good live show. Plus Meg came down to go see them since she loves them.

Some small things have happened here and there. Nothing very big. I can get my lisence next month. I'm excited.

So what has everyone else been up to?

Anyone miss me? Didn't think so...

Oh! And if you read all of this entry, I will seriously love you forever and...give you a prize or something one day.
