hmm...bloggers been updated once again. whoopty doo.

i hung out with nolan and travis (hall) pretty much all day yesterday. we went fishing at this little pond by travis's house and shot stuff with nolans new bb gun. nolan with a firearm is a scary thing. after that we came back here and watched pulp fiction. the first half of the movie was kinda boring, but the second half was fuckin awesome. then we went and ordered pizza and played some games at round table. after all that we came back and ate the pizza and watched tv. theres some new show on comedy central i hadnt seen before called "im with busey". its about gary busey and some guy whos supposedly his biggest fan and they hang out and do all sorts of crazy shit. the part that makes it so great is the fact that gary busey is a completely insane nutcase. as travis said, it seems like hes still stuck in one of his action movies. he either almost dies or kills the other guy on the show. i cant remember his name, but hes some dorky guy that gets picked on throughout the entire episode. travis left at around 1 and nolan stayed the night. his mom showed up this morning freaking out cause they were gonna be late to the "temple". i think nolans mom joined a cult and is forcing him to join as well. maybe they will have a kool-aid party. i hope i get invited!

whoa bloggers been updated, so everything looks different. but of course only i see the differences. my blog will stay the same. anyway...

it turns out i didnt fail math, it was a mistake, like i thought before. i found out that the school sent out the previous progress report instead of the final grades. ha. morons. i got my real grades in the mail today and was pretty stoked. it was the best report card my whole 4 years. my gpa was a 3.2, the first time ive gotten above a 3.0. i even managed to pull off a C- in math, which i was failing most of the year. so not only did i graduate, but i actually did good. yay im so proud. ok enough bragging about my grades now.

i got the new locust cd, and it kicks ass. well in my opinion anyway. chances are, if youre reading this, you would probably hate it. but whatever. i was supposed to see them play at this record store in san diego, but mike tafoya (aka #2) gave us horrible directions and we were late. locust songs are about 45 seconds long, so obviously its not a good idea to be late to a locust show. but oh well. i got the cd so its all good.

also, i shaved my goatee off about 10 minutes ago. its weird being able to see and feel my chin again. bye bye facial hair

(whoa i had deja vu...again. man i get that a lot)

and oh yeah...ryan came over earlier. i havent seen him in a while. that was cool.

i got my report card today...and i FAILED MATH. yes thats right. there was a big fat F on my report card. i think it might be a mistake because in the last week of school my math teacher told me i passed. but if i really did get an F, then technically that means i failed high school. but i already got my diploma! ha! suckers

blogger hasnt been working recently. that, plus laziness and going out quite a bit has prevented me from posting much lately. theres been absolutely no parties, and no one ever wants to do anything. everyone i call is either busy or just too damn lazy to do anything, so the majority of this summer so far ive spent just hanging out with nolan and travis. we wander the streets and cause any sorts of trouble we possibly can. sounds like we are a bunch of bums (and maybe we are...) but its damn fun. we recently started hanging out with brittany too every once in a while. we all saw hulk last night. the visual effects and transitions between scenes were awesome. the action scenes were cool as hell. but unfortunately, there wasnt much of those, so the rest of the movie was boring as hell. today i got marvel vs. capcom 2, which ive been wanting to get for a while. i got it at gamecrazy, and traded in 3 other games for it, and ended up only having to pay $5 for it, which was really fuckin cool. nolan just told me about some friend of his moms who needs a webpage and is willing to pay someone to have it made. he suggested i do it. the guys rich and doesnt know much about computers, so i could make some decent money if i decide to do it. ill think about it and maybe contact him in a day or two. my mom painted my room as well and we cleaned it out. we painted the walls grey, with the top 1/4 of the walls a lighter grey. it actually looks pretty cool. when (or if) i find my digital camera ill take some pics and post em. well thats about all thats happened so far for my summer. not too boring, not too exciting. but thats just fine with me.

i graduated on thursday. i could write a huge post and reflect on the past 4 years, but ill pass on that. i have been through a lot over the past few years, and this is a very important time in my life, but not a time ill remember based on a blog post. this goes far beyond that. this is the beginning of a new part of my life. things wont be the same from this point on. only time will tell. ill just have to wait and see whats in store for me in the future. there are a lot of things im hoping for. ill just have to do my best to try and achieve the things i want. hopefully ill have a little bit of luck on my side as well...

if is the word in between life.

today is a day ill never forget, for two main reasons. one is of course because today was my last day of high school. and the other reason is because i almost got arrested at school and didnt graduate...

me, billy, nolan, kellen, and travis were walking back to school from mikes house. it was 12:15 and we had graduation rehearsal at 12:30, which was mandatory. if you didnt go, you wouldnt graduate. but then we pass some friends who are getting into their truck and are on their way to school as well. they offer us a ride, so we all hop in the back. we get into school and are driving to the parking lot when nolan starts mooning people. then i threw a full soda can out and started throwing all my papers out of my backpack. when we pulled into a parking spot, the school sheriff pulls up behind us in a tan van (which had behind us the whole time...). he gets out and yells at us all to stay in the truck. he tells us all we are going to be arrested for illegally riding in the back of the truck, littering (whoops...my bad), and indecent exposure (cant nolan ever keep his pants on?). the sheriff takes the driver and other 2 people sitting in the front, and us who were in the back are escorted to the office by like 3 security guards. we end up sitting in the office for like 20 minutes worrying that we are going to be arrested and not graduate. luckily they tell us to go to rehearsal and that we will be dealt with later. so we still arent sure whats going to happen, but i guess ill just have to hope they dont take it too seriously. and all of this on the very last day of high school...man what the fuck. i doubt theyll keep us from graduating and it doesnt look like anyone will be arrested, but wish me luck anyway.

today i got my cap and gown for graduation. man next week is my LAST week of high school...fucking insane. however, im still a little bit worried about consumer math. i only got a C on my final project, and blah blah blah i dont feel like getting into all the details. all i can say is that i better pass that class or i am gonna be really, really, reeeeaaaally fucking pissed. i dunno...i doubt mr. hamilton will be a dick and fail me because ive been putting so much effort into that class this last grading period. but enough bitching about that.

today someone finally pulled the prank that everyones dreamed of these past 4 years...yes thats right, someone played porn on KVHS. and i FUCKING MISSED IT! gooood damnit. just my luck. i knew it was happening today too. in fact, i know the guy who did it. he was going to do it on wednesday but the vcr that broadcasts to all the schools tvs ate his tape so he had to make another one. but man thats all everyones been talking about today. and i fucking missed it. it was a chick masturbating too...and thats fuckin hot! i think i need to compensate for what i missed and go download some porn now...

i got my yearbook today. hooray for me. i dont really like my picture in it though...my hairs all short. eh whatever.

im making this my "yearbook post". what i mean by this is if for some reason, like living in another state, you cant sign my yearbook, just think of whatever you would write in it, and post it here as a comment. try to keep the horribly unoriginal "have a good summer, good luck in the future" crap to a minumum (even though this is what i wrote in most peoples yearbooks). ass kissing and fake compliments, such as me being hot, are highly encouraged. thank you and try not to smear the ink, or ill kill you.

Why do your eyes paralyze me
What makes me feel this way
Carry me away with silence and
heartbeats as rapid (and heartbeats as rapid)

Thinking about your embrace
and how it makes me feel
I just want to feel this way forever

Sleep on portraits painted as perfect as you
Why have I been given the chance to fly
When I'm not with you I feel lesser alone
Why have I been given the chance to fly away

I remember your face imprinted on angels
Your voice as beautiful as the sound of waves
Crashing against my heart

Time slows down when
you look at me
I'm infatuated with this
Infatuated with you

I remember
your face
imprinted on angels

It's so hard for me to understand
Why I hadn't found you before
Hold my hand

ive been too busy to post lately, so heres whats gone down in the past few days

friday :: went to brengle. they had an emcee battle, which was actually pretty entertaining. then of course that was followed by the usual pop punk crap. me and nolan were loud and pissed people off, as usual. after the show though, billy and his girlfriend were saying that 2 guys were trying to stare us down and were giving us dirty looks. i guess we were really getting on their nerves. me and nolan wanted to find them and fight them, but we couldnt find them. we left, and dropped billy and his girlfriend off at billys house. then me, nolan, and travis just drove around till midnight talking about life, death, afterlife, religion, and other stuff like that. weird how one moment we can be immature morons, and the next be all serious and philosophical. i consider it a good thing though. and oh yeah...we saw a midget at brengle. she was trying to rock out. haha.

saturday :: me and billy went skating. it was pretty fun until billy almost broke his ankle. long story short, me and billy were skating this roof, i did it, and then billy tried it and landed wrong with all the weight on his back foot. at first he thought he broke his ankle because his hands were shaking and he couldnt feel his leg. luckily, he didnt. its probably just a really bad sprain, or a fracture. he says hell be skating again by this weekend.

sunday :: mostly just hung out with travis and nolan by cinemastar. we sat around and talked and made fun of people that walked by. damn parkhursts. and we saw another midget. 2 midgets in one weekend. thats a record for me. on the way home we started our own little suburban project mayhem. nolan wants it to become a regular thing. its pretty easy to get away with stuff on sunday nights. theres absolutely no one out on sunday

monday :: we had senior breakfast at school, but i didnt go. i heard it was pretty fun, but its cool. i got to sleep in till 10 so missing it was perfectly fine with me. matt and matt picked me up a little after 5 and we went to the tomra/underoath show. it was all they way down in el cajon, which is right next to where i live. it was weird seeing all these places i recognize from 10 years ago. ahh memories. while we were walking in, i heard someone yell "michael thuemmler!" behind us. i turned around expecting to see an old friend that i havent seen in years...but it was just billy lol. oh well that was still a cool surprise. i didnt know he was going. the show was awesome. i bought the tomra demo. hmm...i still havent listened to it yet. i think ill pop it in after im done posting this. the other bands that played were rose for ona, embraced, and love is red. they were all pretty good. but of course underoath was the best. during the last song, when the sun sleeps, everyone went fuckin nuts. i ran up on stage, and jumped off into the crowd. i was crowd surfing for a few seconds until the fuckers dropped me on my back and neck. oh well...cant expect to go to a hardcore show and not get a little banged up. thats usually half the fun. oh yeah...i also got hit in the face (which is now like a regular thing for me at shows) and kicked in the knee pretty hard. im feelin fuckin great. god i love going to hardcore shows.
