hey, girl, sorry it took me so long to reply!
I had forgot about Gaia, you see, i don't visit this site very often. I'm usually on Myspace or Facebook.
Did you make it to the Owl City show? ours got sold out. very disappointing.
But The Devil Wears Prada is coming soon, and so is The Rocket Summer!!! But his show is on a Wednesday, and i'm not sure if id' be able to go, let alone try out for his contest. have you heard of the contest where you're suppose to interpret the "so much love" sax solo on a weird instrument? i want to enter it with my ukulele, Goliath, but i'm not sure if my parents would let me go if i do win.
I hope so, it'd be like a dream come true. Not only meeting Bryce and talking to him, but playing with him too! And being backstage with FTSK during the Sing It Loud set. That would be killer. Hope they have some time to hang out after they finish rehearsing.... i don't want to be like those annoying self-centered super fans. XD
Nope, i haven't heard The Academy Is... new single yet. I've been listening to tons of Christian metal bands lately like Before There Was Rosalyn and Harp and Lyre. They're both awesome. ;] I want to see them both live, but they don't tour the east coast. Bums me out. But by the time i'm able to drive, perhaps that'll change.
Oh, and things with me and Federico are great! We're like best friends! But i wonder if he ever thinks of me as more? I like him so much... think about him all the time. >_<
What's new in your life?

i've seen footage of him live, but I've never heard his talking voice. Maybe he just doesn't talk much at all?
That's a nice little ambition: to compliment at least someone in each class :]
Nope, NC fails even more than Arizona i bet. What is it like?
I haven't heard two birds yet. Gah.... I must listen then. biggrin

Yeah, you're right. I've never really heard him talk. It's pretty wierd. hahaha. I missed his show the other night. My friend was having really bad problems. Our lives are pretty similar it's wierd. Except her seems a bit harder.
Yuh, teachers have said stuff about me too, like they really enjoy me, or they brag about me. It feels good, but I don't know, I just don't take excessive flattery too well. I've suffered a lot of self-hatred, so I think that's why. :/
I'm glad that your friend told you that. You must feel really special now. biggrin
Feddy and I have been getting a long pretty well lately. I'm super super happy. We are going to watch Ponyo: On the Cliff By the Sea next week. I saw it today, but I want to see it again, it's so sweet! Plus it's with Feddy. He's so sweet. :]
Okay, i will give it a whirl sometime. Right now, I am listening to Mae's newer stuff. It's wonderful biggrin
I am pretty sleepy atm. I'll tttyl :] I hope everything is fine over there in Arizona.

Oh really? i thought you said you did. lol
I'm feeling much better today tho. biggrin Family drama, you know?
Except i'm a bit embarrassed about a little hand written note i wrote Federico. Because i like hand written personal things.... lol (like my Carter Hulsey letter). I hid my head the first thing when i came home. Am i wierd or what? I told him not be offended if i "run away" from him. Because i tend to be pretty outgoing, but deep inside, I'm really shy!! And i was just worried that he might have read it, and like thought i was super obvious. I do really stupid stuff at times, lol. D:
But I just got a message from him like 2 seconds ago, and he says he's shy too. lol. Me freaking out for nothing. razz
I'm too silly for my own good. But I'm just surprised at how super cool he's been. It's like, too good to be true. biggrin
I'm streaming Owl City right now. idk why, but some of the melodies remind me of Relient K's piano songs. Like OC's "Dental Care" reminds me of some of their silly songs. XD But anyway, I'm just happy about how well a lot of people has received his music. Especially adults. It's like Adam Young is speaking for the inner child in some of these adults who are still in touch with that. It makes me happy. :]
I don't ever want to grow up. I always want to be cheerful, and love naively, and give foolishly, and need people. Besides, there's a Bible verse that says it's best we don't. That we should be like children. :]
I haven't listened to too much Imogen Heap. Just "Hide and Seek". Doesn't she have a side project too? i forgot what it's called, is it like "Posh Posh". That's probably completely wrong. hahaha but it's like electronic music. It was on my Owl City channel on Pandora, hahaha :]
It's "Frou Frou" lol, not "Posh Posh". hahaha
I haven't seen the interview yet. i wish I knew more bands who would do frequent podcasts like that. It's always fun to see their silly antics. They're like a bunch of big kids biggrin

The name of the boy you like. :O
I had a bad day today. I got locked out of my house for two hours. My parents are arguing and being childish. I feel lonely especially because I'm always home with my parents, and I never feel like I fit in with them. I can't be myself around my family. I'm a monster and I miss Feddy. I haven't seen him in four days. I know it sounds stupid but, I miss him. I hate being "emo" because I can't keep it in.
Ugh, I missed Taylor Swift today. I didn't even know she was playing. You know, I glad guys like a girl like her. She's so dorky and down to earth which is a major plus to being beautiful.
I just feel really discouraged atm, even after having a good message at my "church" today.
I'm really into the song "Giving It Away (acoustic)" by Mae. It's such a beautiful song. It's on my myspace atm.

So I tried replying to you several days ago, and the whole comment got deleted. lol
I was thinking that maybe you got it when I clicked send, but I guess it never sent. D: Bah.
Ah well.
They are just crazy fangirls. I just feel really bad for him. it makes me sick.
My friend Courtney's whole family is in love with Owl City now. Including her mom and dad. Her dad is dying to go to the show this Friday. I think that means I get to go too! I'm excited. :]
I'm really enjoying Tai TV. I love it. It makes me love the guys. They're so funny. I didn't know The Butcher was such a good artist! I have the Sleeping With Giants tour sticker and didn't realize he drew that. It's amazing, and inspiring! And his tatoos are awesome! hahaha I want to start from the very beginning tho. I'm around episode 216 i think. yikes
Yeah, I'd love to see more female artist pop up. Not just acoustic, or pop. biggrin I really can't stand the Millionaires. They drive me crazy.
Really, what is this boy like? what's his name? :]
I'm crazy about Feddy. I like him so much. I think about him all the time. biggrin
I have to get drawing and stuff and do my laundry and homwork. Sorry this is so short. :/ But how's everything been?

Yeah, I saw the Maps video. He looks a bit wierd with facial hair. Maybe because I'm not really used to it. hahaha
Yup, that's how the Brewery looks like! It's looks just like that picture. :]
Yeah, Adam young sometimes post these hilarious bulletins on Myspace of random stuff. Some of the stuff makes me lol and others I just dn't get, hahaha. He's so silly and childish. I think that's so cute.
Have you heard of a band called He Is We? They're awesome. I love them so much. Rachel's voice is the real thing. I'd kill to have a range like her. biggrin I need voice lessons tho. I need to improve vocal strength and range. razz
I've been watching Tai TV lately. It's pretty good.
I'm just wondering what AAM is doing in a Wet Seal..... O.o Haha, but today when I went to the mall, I peeked inside the Wet Seal, lol.
I'm 16. Yeah, those girls get on my nerves. I just wish we could talk about life and music. It would be awesome. Never Shout Never announced that he was live on Stickam the other day, and that went as a disaster. :/ He didn't even know how to use the site, he said! And he was flooded with like hundreds of comments about how hot he was, questions he's already answered a millions times, people writing crap about him or requests to say "I love you" to them or " OmG! make a heart shape with your hands!". I just hated that. It made me think and I did feel really bad for him afterwards. People are so selfish, it ticks me off. I'm sickofselfishsentences. He had to shut his laptop, and when he did, people were laughing. That pissed me off. It sucks because lots of bands go through something like that at one point or another. Some girls are so shallow, that they won't like a band, just because non of the bands members are hot! That disgusts me. Or someone will say "I love this band, but all the guys are ugly." huh, they prolly are a lot more beautiful than she is... Inside and out. > razz
Sorry, I ranted....
Yeah, I get really hyper around some of my friends, and I tell them silly stories. C: I'm surprised because i was able to open up to my friend Federico pretty fast. I think I have a crush on him. :] He told me the wierdest thing the other day, he said he bought a pair of shoes and got free jerky? lol O.O
Gosh, today I dropped the most money on a single item of clothing I ever had. It was this http://shop.pacsun.com/girls/hoodies/Gossip-Queen-Hoodie/index.pro lol It was around $63 dollars including tax. It felt kinda weird doing that. But I've meant to buy a new jacket since last year. razz lol Saosin is going to have a listening party at that Pacsun tho. I'm not sure when. I didn't see the time.

Yup, Alternative Press Magazine makes the AP tour happen. I missed Bryce on AP Tour 2008. I was so upset. I had a doctor's appointment. That was the summer where I started getting interested in going to shows, but I didn't go to my first one until May of this year.
Oh my JESUS!!!! STEPHEN CHRISTIAN????? *dies*
wow, God, I love that guy. He is one of my heros. He's the reason why I started getting interested in helping people and seeing that it's not so boring! Lucky lucky girl!!!!!! xD
I would love that, to just go up to a musician I admired and start talking about life, maybe have some ice cream. C:
Haha, that's so cute that you guys held your screams until you went in the car. biggrin
Bryce does not look like a tranny! Your friend is just jealous cause Bryce is beautiful inside and out and super amazingly talented. BRYCE IS THE MAN. HE IS THE MANLIEST OF MANLY MEN. Shame on all those wannabe manly men!! lol Well, at least I think Bryce is manly. I have a different idea of manly than most people.
Most people think like sports and physical strength, and being mean and tough and eating meat (I like vegetarians better, geez I am picky!), but none of that means anything to me unless you have a strong character/personality. I also like a man of good faith. Cus I'm obsessed with Jesus. That makes Bryce even sexier on top of being an awesome musician. C:
My hero is Brandt Russo. He is AMAZING. Super chill, dumpster-diving, street evangelist that hangs out with and helps the poor. Which reminds me, I'm going to leave him some voicemail (that sounds a bit stalkerish, I know, but he posted his voicemail box for everyone to see, asking for messages cause he's bored, so why not?). I want to get him to come to my church so we can watch his documentary. :] I think he was on tour with Bullet For Pretty Boy....
Yeah, the local venue, The Brewery, which is located in Raleigh, is a little trashy venue. It's really old, really small, and reaking of smoke (but that's all venues, right?). But the cool thing about The Brewery is that people write all over the walls inside and out! So you'll see signatures of musicians or independent designers (like Jawbreaking-Jewelry) written all over it. And then people write stories on the walls too, good, bad and ugly. There's also stickers. LOTS. I saw a FTSK sticker above the door that had Kyle's signature on it. The venue is so small you'll have people standing or sitting on top of the pool table. And I also like it because you get to be really close to them. I can get super close to the front, haha. :]
I haven't been to a show since The Jealousy Game acoustic set at Hot Topic. I hope to see Owl City on Sept. 11 tho. It's my friend's birthday that day. I want to meet Adam Young. biggrin
Lots of the acts that go through NC that I know go through Charlotte. Therefore I missed most shows.
I was in the mosh pit during the NSN concert lol. People were moshing to the opening acts. That's how I learned not to wear flip flops or mocs to shows. razz I hardly wear sneakers. People are rude! They'll pick up your flip flop and throw them to the other side of the room! D:
I missed that concert with Barcelona! I wanted to go really bad, but my parents wouldn't take me to Charlotte to see them. Plus I don't have friends that like Mae. I don't have friends that like most of the stuff I like. sad Plus I don't want to be a headache to my parents. I know they're not comfortable with the idea of me going to small venues, especially if I come back later than I said I would and I smell like smoke. ]:
Also, a lot of my favorite musicians are currently doing west coast. I want to see The Jakes live very badly. I love them so much. :]
A local band I like are having a CD release show this Saturday, but I can't make it.
One thing that really bothers me are girls that act like groupies, especially because so many of them are so young, younger than me. There are tons of band members that would never support that type of thing. I even heard in an interview someone saying that band groupies freak him out. I don't remember who it was, I think it was Alex Gaskarth perhaps?
I have this bad habit of singing along with my Ipod at night before I go to sleep. I really gotta stop because my family say that they can hear me, and that's pretty embarressing, lol.
I had a good first day of school. I made a new friend on the bus. His name is Federico. He seems really nice. It's super rare for me to strike up convos with guys I just met because I'm shy, but we were talking about roller coasters and air travel and stuff. It was nice. :]

I think our is a Steinway and Sons too. I haven't check in a while. I've touched a Wurlitzer once, and those are rather nice. biggrin I need to get back on piano. I'm getting back on piano tomorrow! I feel bad for rejecting it. :]
Your friend sounds awesome. I wish I had music obsessed friends. I'm kinda the only one who is obsessed. So it's hard to go to shows because most of the times, I don't know anyone who knows the acts, who is also my friend. Plus all the scene kids don't like meh.
I've been buying a lot of CDs lately. The most recent I've bought is a Jack's Mannequin one, but I haven't listened to it yet, because I don't really like to listen to anything while I'm reading. Or even when I'm using the PC (because I'll be streaming something on the PC, like atm it's Brightside).
I downloaded Tai TV, but I only got like episode 200 to recent. I gotta watch all the other episodes before I watch the ones on my Ipod. I also have Alternative Press Podcast, and AP&R by AP Mag. That's my favorite magazine. :]
My sister makes fun of me a lot. She likes to say things like that too, like "Oh, you only like Bryce Avary because he's good lookin'" or she'll make fun of me and call me a whore because I love all the guys of TDWP. I'm sorry, they are funny extremely loveable, and I love their music! Sheesh. And that stuff like pisses me off. I don't know, I respect my musicians. I HATE IT WHEN PEOPLE TALK CRAP ABOUT THEM! I don't take it too seriously because they're normal people, I just respect them. Some girl had the nerve to compare two of my fav musicans and say that one was a better person than the other, to the actual guy! And they're roommates and best friends to make it worse!
I wish I could go to more shows tho, and meet the people. I've only been to like two shows. One was for a local band called the Jealousy Game and I met all the guys, and the other was a Nevershoutnever! and Carter Hulsey show (hardly anyone there knew Carter's music, I was bummed!) and I met Carter Hulsey but only for like 2 seconds because he was extremely busy at the merch table and looked really confused with so much going on. I don't tell much people this, but he wanted some fans to send him letters to say hi, so I wrote him, and he sent me a handwritten letter back with a guitar pic. I treasure them so much. He's really sweet. biggrin
I also met Caleb Denison (the guitarist) at the back at the venue. I was dead nervous tho, I'm super shy and my friends were rushing me (they don't care about meeting the people, really. Plus one of my friends was looking at him weird because he was smoking. D smile . So that was a disaster. lol
You met The Academy Is....? That's pretty cool. biggrin
I would die happy if I had a proper meeting with Carter Hulsey and Bryce. <3
Tomorrow is my last day of vacation. D:
