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

Intermission?

Okay, I'm going to post a real post later, but right now, I have 20 minutes until I have to be at work, so I can't really talk about much right now. Basically, I might freak out about how I may go to the Something Corporate concert in Milwaukee on (I think) August 6, which would be amazing.

Until later today,
Kelly

Whining

Alright, I'm going to vent, so bear with me here.

I feel like shit. Quite honestly, sometimes I want to leave and never come back. And maybe that's why I want to go off to college so quickly, and why sometimes I want to go as far away as possible.

People suck.

Until next time,
Kelly

Hey!

I'm posting! And I have ideas of what I have do before senior year starts. But first, I have to complain about that. Here's my schedule for next year:

1- Interning
2- AP Calc AB
3- AP French
4- AP Biology
5- AP Biology/Lunch
6- AP Econ/Gov
7- Band
8- AP Literature and Composition

Why am I doing this to myself?
Because colleges call this "dedication" or "conscientiously working towards a college education", which is apparently doing it all before you get there.

Now, these are ideas that have been floating around in my head that need to go into action during this summer;

- Fake protest: Basically, make signs that say things like "EVERY THING'S OKAY!" and "NEUTRALITY" and then protest.
- Singing on a train: Get a large group of people, take the train to Chicago, and every now and then, burst out into song. I hope that it wouldn't get us in trouble.
- Vans Warped Tour: Gotta go gotta go gotta go.
- Learn how to play Ben Folds on the piano: If you haven't listened to Ben Folds, go do that.
- Visit colleges: The list is currently
- Loyola (Chicago)
- Marquette
- University of Illinois (Urbana-Champaign)
- University of Iowa
- Augustana
- Some other places.

And that's all for now. Oh, and I'll be working all summer (at a music store, which is awesome) and making money to maybe buy some awesome things. We'll see.

Until next time,
Kelly

I'm Dumb and I'm Sorry

Okay, so this was my official first day of summer. I did pretty much nothing.

So, I logged onto this old ghost town of a website. This post serves not only as an apology to no one, but a mission statement.

I will post regularly, and it will be about the awesome things that I will do this summer and beyond.

Until next time, few (if any) readers.
