Apologies, concerts, and confusion

Okay, quick post.

1. I was at camp and working and kind of forgot about this, whoops.

2. Oh God, there are so many concerts that I want to go to, we'll talk about them later.

3. Guys, being a teenager is confusing!

That's it! Bye! More later!

Hollow bodied electrics, eBooks, and piano music

I want a guitar. Not my brother's which I have to steal whenever I want to play it.

My own guitar.

And not just any kind of guitar. Not just a regular old Stratocaster or something. I want a hollow bodied electric guitar.

The picture to the left is one of those. That, however, is the dream hollowed bodied electric guitar. It costs about $3,000. So I'm not going to go for that one. Luckily though, there are some that run in the $200-300 range, and some for even cheaper. Such as this lovely guitar on eBay, but I'm not really sure that I should trust eBay with something like a guitar.

Okay, onto eBooks; since I got a Nook for my birthday, I've had to find a way to get free eBooks. Luckily, it's legal to get things like classics since there's no copyright on a lot of them.

I'm not mentioning this to talk about classics though, I accidentally downloaded the entire Twilight series when I was looking for American Gods by Neil Gaiman (by the way, amazing book). Now, I'm wondering if I should actually read the rest of the series (I've read the first one) so I can actually decide just how terrible it is.

And I've been trying to play Ben Folds on the piano. That may already be bad news, but I'm not sure.

Well, that's pretty much all that I have for right now.

Until next time,

My birthday, getting low, and a sucky internet connection

That is a really weird title. Anyways, my birthday was on Friday and I finally turned seventeen. Hallelujah! So, to celebrate... I went to work.

And that's not terrible. Some people found out and I ended up going home with four plates of cookies, a tray of brownies, a balloon, and a bouquet of flowers. Ok, the flowers were from my mom when she decided to come in and give them to me, but whatever, those flowers are now sitting on our dinning room table.

Afterwards, there was a barbeque with my family from Michigan and Florida, and the next day we headed to the lake again. And it wasn't so painful this time around.

Now, the "getting low" part of the title. So, Ludacris has this song called Go Low, and my sister, my brothers, and I discovered the video for it on On Demand. My brother suddenly became very determined to learn the lyrics to this song, and I don't know why.

The sucky internet connection is really just that. My internet connection sucks.

Until next time,

Kelly

The weekend

Ok, I'm tired and cold, so this is going to be a quick post.

One, that guy who plays Justin on the Wizards of Waverly Place is pretty cute, not gonna lie. And to save face, my sister was watching it, not me.

Two, my 4th of July on the lake has left my arms pretty much useless. The water was much more rough than it usually was, which resulted in a lot of bouncing up into the air. It was pretty painful.

Three, I turn 17 in four days. And my family comes in around that time too, so it should be a pretty good weekend again.

Four, I've been spending a lot of time on my roof lately; is that weird?

Well, that's everything for tonight. Until next time,

Eclipse, work, and the 4th of July

First of all, Twilight is a terrible book series. And not one of those series that deteriorates over time, it didn't even get a good start. And with the logic that the book is always better than the film, why are people so excited about the new movie coming out tomorrow (June 30th)? Seriously, the tweens of the world need to watch some good vampire movies. Or at least ones where the vampires are total badasses, in which case I would suggest that you watch the Blade series.

Second, I'm writing this before I go to work, and I have to quote one of my bosses because he's just funny;

"That's the thing that I like about music; there's no wrong answer. Unless you tell me that you like Mötley Crüe; then you're wrong."

I've never listened to them, but apparently he has some strong feelings against them.

Third, I'm probably heading out to the lake again for the holiday weekend. Woo! It should be pretty awesome again, even though Jeff isn't coming and we won't be able to fight over a dog (yeah, we're a bit weird).

And that's all for today, till next time,

Jamba Juice and other new things

So, I went to Jamba Juice for the first time ever. And it was delicious. I had that Strawberry Surf Rider, and it was fantastic.

Alright, something more exciting than wonderful smoothies. I'm in the midst of learning how to play guitar. It's going pretty well, except for breaking the high E string on my brother's guitar. That wasn't so great. But being able to play the beginning of Sugar We're Going Down is pretty sweet.

And that trip to the lake this weekend. That was amazing. And since Jeff is going to read this, Jeff is also amazing. Except for when he tried to put me in a freezer. But perhaps that was payback for when I was driving the boat and I knocked him off of his tube? We'll have to go back one of these days.

For now, I think that's everything new that's happened lately. Only a few more weeks until muscular dystrophy camp and about two more until I turn 17. :D Exciting stuff.

Until next time,

Kelly

I was only off by a couple of days, holy crap

Yeah, sorry about the wait of a few days. Anyways, I was going to freak out about the Something Corporate reunion tour?

So, OH MY GOD, I MAY ACTUALLY GO.

Crazy, right? I just have to, you know, find a way to get from Chicago to Milwaukee without a car. Other big plans for the summer include:

- Several trips to the lake (one of which is tomorrow)

- Several trips to Chicago

- Driving a boat (on the lake, not in Chicago)

- Vans Warped Tour

- Muscular dystrophy camp

- And other crazy adventures, which I will post at the appropriate time

I realize after writing this, I have another post just like this! Well, after tomorrow I will have more interesting things to post.

Till next time,

Kelly
