A solo revolution into the light.

I went to see Children of Bodom last night. Pretty awesome! Although they played in the same venue Nightwish played at last year, and there was something about a Finnish band playing in that venue that made me really sad and long for Nightwish.

I haven't listened to a lot of Nightwish lately. I mean, every time I DO listen to it, even if it's just 'cause I'm playing guitar along with it, I love it to bits. But in my every day life, I don't feel much of a draw to listen to it. I usually yearn to listen to Papa Roach or The Kills or some such. Although lately it's been Indica like crazy, and also The Sounds which I was recently introduced to. I guess my mood's been all over.

Wound up staying at work for four and a half hours past my shift today, because I'm fond of them. :). Them being my coworkers. There was actually a job oepning at the HMV in St.Vital, which I'm considering applying for, although it would make me sad not to see a lot of my friends at KP anymore.

Although I'm broke as fuck right now because of missing so much work due to surgery. I'm not full-time so I don't get EI or anything. So my paycheck today was like half of usual, which sucks because I'm going to view an apartment in the very near future and I don't even have enough for a damage deposit right now. Much less a month's rent. So I'm thinking it might be time to take out a loan.

I THINK I'm going to go and watch some TV/a movie and have some food. Maybe the Da Vinci Code again. I think Audrey Tautou is adorable. ♥

Currently Listening: Into the Light by Papa Roach

I've got a head full of wreckage and a mouth full of lies.

My mind's in the gutter, I feel like I wanna die.

I'm the king of nothing, with a broken crown.

I've been taking a beating,

But I won't back down.

ANOTHER UPDATE.

HAHAHAAHAHA

k anyway.

I was in the hospital a week and a half ago! :O

I had appendicitis. And now I have no appendix. It was the worst pain I've ever experienced. I was throwing up until there was nothing left and then I was dry heaving. I couldn't walk. And the docotors kept coming and pressing on it to make a diagnosis (fun fact: you can't be skinny for a CT scan to work) and it HURT SO MUCH. But then they operated and the pain after was so much more bearable than the pain before. Morphine was my best friend during the ordeal.

Oh so I got a new guitar! It's a Schecter Solo-6 Hellraiser in white. It's the same one Jerry uses in Papa Roach's video for I Almost Told You That I Loved You. It came to $1100 after taxes! I know right. But it's worth it and I love it. I've been learning loads of new songs. I'm not letting those solos stand in my way. I plug away at it until I get it. Right now the best solo I can play 100% is the solo in The Donnas' Take It Off.

I don't know why I decided to post. I guess I just thought it would be good to write something here lol. It's weird to think that loads of people are back to school when I don't even have to worry about it at all.

And I'm a killer indie mood lately. INDIE MUSIC RULES.

And the other day, I got a customer to listen to Sonic Syndicate! I think he liked it, event hough he didn't buy the CD. Small success but a notable one at least! ^.^

Currently Listening: Goodnight Bad Morning by The Kills

The jailors in my mind are all dead.

I love you so much, never forget.

All of our secrets are coming undone.

What a beautiful state

We are in.

I AM in fact alive.

HOLY CRAP.

How's it going??

Haha like nobody reads this anymore, but I don't care.

Maybe someone will stumble across this again and then be like, "OH HER WITH THE NIGHTWISH FANFIC. WTF WHY ISN'T IT UPDATED WITH THOSE REQUESTS. BITCH I'LL CUT YOU."

Well here's how my life has been in the past like...three months.

My dad graduated from RCMP training and was posted to Prince Rupert in April.
Nothing really happened in May.
June was the big month.
June 11th - My first shift at HMV, where I finally got hired!!
June 15th - My 18th birthday. I didn't do anything on the day of my birthday, though, other than open a couple presents. My big present of the year was a ps3, because Dallas kept the other one as is only fitting since he bought it.
June 19th - Grad Dinner and Dance/Safe Grad. It's like prom to those who just can't grasp what "grad" means. I of course didn't have a date, but that's okay, not very many people did. I got all dressed up in a dress that was custom made to look like Sharon's dress from Black Symphony (minus the feathers). It turned out really well. I'll post some pictures soon, if I remember. After the dinner (I had my mom, Dallas and my dad with me) was Safe Grad. Which is pretty much the party where no one under the age of 18 is supposed to drink (but of course they do because they have friends over 18). I got pretty drunk, I'll tell you. I think my new favourite drink is vodka with lime. MMMMM. So good lol. Though of course you just can't go wrong with coolers. Those are so delicious. Only one person actually barfed and passed out at Safe Grad, though every single person who was there had a bit (or a lot) to drink. It was hilarious.
June 20th - Went to The Ex (bigass fair in these here parts) for my birthday. Hung out with Renata (assistant manager at HMV, for the record) for most of the actual day. There were tons of people so we didn't get a chance to go on many rides, but we pulled cutsies at the Drop of Fear and waited half an hour as opposed to like two hours lol. We went on the Merry Go 'Round lmao. Also on the Gravitron and the really tall swings. She wanted to go on the Banzai (which is like the Salt and Pepper Shakers just with a different name), but we didn't have enough time. She had to leave at ten with her fiance's family, so I wandered off to find Kailyn and spent the rest of the night with her and her friends. We went on the Ferris Wheel and Niagara Falls. There was no drinking all night, despite it being a celebration of my 18th birthday (which is legal age here).
June 21st - Father's Day. My dad was actually in town too. So he picked me up from work and we went for supper at The Palatal. MMMMM stirfry lol.
June 26th - Convocation, wherein we get our diplomas. Went off without a hitch, saw some peeps for what will likely be the last time. So it was kind of a bittersweet day. Afterwards went to The Keg with the family as a belated birthday/grad celebration. So good.
June 27th - Rock on the Range. WHICH I DIDN'T FUCKING GO TO. And I was so fucking pissed off. I had a fucking field ticket and everything. I am STILL pissed off.
Today I am going to Jessica's grad. She's my coworker/friend from Dollarama.

I put in my two weeks' notice at Dollarama because I don't need that place anymore now that I have HMV.

There's so much more I could tell you, but I won't.

I have not been very creative lately, for which I apologize, as it means those requests will likely go unanswered, despite me having been the one to open the floor to suggestions. C'est la vie though.

THE DONNAS HAVE A CD COMING OUT JULY 7th!! AND OLP ON JULY 21st!!
So excited.

Currently Listening: Paper Moon by Our Lady Peace

I was thinking that if you know a way out,

Then I'd like to go with you.

And we can burn out like candles

Under that paper moon.

They just don't know anything at all.
