THE MCR CONCERT WAS FREAKIN AWESOME!!!

It took an hour to get from Tigmo's house to the LA Sports Arena where the concert was being held. Then we had to stand in long line. Tigmo's dad didn't want to see the concert so we scalped the ticket to some dude for $30 (we should have charged more). Her dad left me and Tigmo alone at a rock concert...what the hell was he thinking?!

We stopped to buy merch (I bought a sweatshirt and Tigmo bought skeleton gloves and a t-shirt) and then we when headed to the mass of people that we were on the floor (because we had floor seats). Right from the begining, it was crazy.

Everyone was pushing and shoving each other. You had NO personal space and were always right up against someone else. I was scared to death of falling because I didn't want to get trampled. It was hotter that hell and it smelled bad..really bad. Everyone was sweating like no other.

Reggie And The Full Effect  was the first act. They were pretty good, but sort of unrefined. By the time Alkaline Trio played Tigmo and I had gotten used to getting used to the crowd. At one point, Tigmo even joined a mosh pit! Alkaline Trio was REALLY GOOD! They are a really good band to see live. They don't scream alot, but the lead singer has a good voice.

Then MCR came on. OMFG! Gerard Way is sooooooo hot!!! He' s even hotter in person than he is in pictures. Ray's fro is awesome, esp whens he's headbanging. Frank was wearing a cool shirt. Mikey was pretty much in the background, but he was cool anyway. Bob seemed to have a never ending supply of drumsticks because he kept throwing them in the audience.

As soon as MCR started playing, the crowd got even worse. People were rushing the stage and Tigmo and I got seperated. I was worried at first, but I figured I just enjoy myself. I stayed in the middle-ish most of the time, but at one point I almost made it to the very front (I was only like two rows back) and I could see the sweat on Gerard Way's face *fan girl squeal* I almost died one or two times getting tramppled but people were cool (I think they felt sorry for me because I was shorter than most of every there) and they helped me out. I got hit in the head by countless crowd-surfers and felt like I was suffocating once in a while, but I still survived in one peace.

The music was good. Gerard screamed most of the time. Every other word out of his mouth when he wasn't screaming was the word fuck. Example:

Gerard talking to audience: Los Angeles, you're all a bunch of fucking animals! *shouts louder* LOS ANGELES YOU'RE ALL A BUNCH OF FUCKING ANIMALS! But that's ok, because there is 5 fucking animals on this stage right now!

This is was my favorite Gerard moment:

"You guys are fucked up! And I don't mean because of pills or alcohol, *points to his head* I mean you guys are really, fucked, up. That's cool though, because all of us up here are fucked up too!"

You had to be there, but when he pointed to his head it was so cool and hott.

After 4 hours of Reggie, Alkaline Trio, and MCR the concert was over. Tons of red and silver confetti fell on the audience when it ended. It was awesome. By the end everyone was drenched in sweat.  My shirt was entirely wet and not because of water...Half the sweat I had on me wasn't even mine either. It was soooo disgusting. Even though I've already taken 3 showers since Friday night, I still feel dirty. When the light turned on, you could see how many people lost stuff. It was crazy. There was shoes, shirts, bags, cellphones, cameras, and money everywhere.

I eventually found Tigmo. She was drenched in as much sweat as me. She had a severly hurt wrist and a cut on her tongue where she bit down on it from somebody elebowing her. Some guy had even put his hand up her shirt. Poor Tiggy.

We bought over priced drinks and somehow made it out to the car to leave. Since then, neither of us have been the same. We both  feel dirty, exhausted, and violate. But MCR and Gerard Way were worth it. I would do it again.

I don't know how to get through to you how amazing the whole concert experience thing was, but it was....indescribable.

PEACE AND LOVE. I desperatley need sleep.

- Thanks for the Venom

I haven't written since school started...so sue me. I've been busy. Between AP Euro and Mr. Downs teaching us absolutley nothing in chemistry and then giving us a bunch of homework, I haven't had much of life after school.

What has happened since school started... Well these freshman started hanging out under our tree. I didn't mind so much, but one of them was my ex- neighbor and I have and enternal grudge against her so we had to get rid of them. My classes are blah.

We had the first anime club meeting on Friday. It was fun, but a little crazy. I really shouldn't be talking though, I was pretty talkative, but atleast I listened to Elyse when she tried talking. Friday was my first day in that whole week where my day didn't actually suck, so I was entitled to be in a REALLY good mood.

 We dressed up alot the first week of school..here are some pics:

 I took this pic of Tigmo and Kayla with their "geeky" classes on. Don't they look adorable?!

 This me, Tigmo, and Kayla (the KAK) with rainbowy ribbons. I look kind of rejected though...

 This is a pic of Tigmo and I. It was was supposed to be a serious pic (that's why I'm not smiling) but Tigmo made a dorky face anyway.

 This is Vaughn Tigmo!! Bwuhahahaha! (Yes, he USED to be Care Bear.Not anymore though..)

 Here's a pic of Tigmo and Mr. Potato Head...I mean Scott. *snickers*

 Here's the KAK with gummy fangs in our mouth at the mall. (Actually, this was a while ago, but I like the pic)

Yesterday I was supposed to meet up with Tigmo at the mall, but she had transportation issues. It really sucked because I was at the mall for 4 hours waiting for her, but whatever.

Sooo..yeah. Only *counts* ONLY 32 MORE DAYS UNTIL THE MCR CONCERT!!!

I'M GOING TO A MCR (MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE) CONCERT WITH ASHLEY!!! WOO HOO!!! I'M SOOO EXCITED!!

Now that I got that off my chest... Lots of stuff has happened. Ashley slept over, went to thrift stores and got my Mardi Gras outfit, went to Zach's party (which was awesome! Props to Zach and many thanks for the delicous food he served) and stuff like that. Also went to registration day for school. Had to stand in line for an hour because they gave me 7 classes. I can't wake up that early! Anyway, here is my schedule:

Per 2: AP Human Geography

Per 3: Alg ll/Trig

Per 4: Honors English

Per 5: AP European History

Per 6: Chemistry A

Per 7: Spanish ll A

Too lazy to write what teachers I have, but tell me if you have the same class same period as me and I can check if we have the same teacher. Soo..yeah. Crystallynn's party is tommorrow night. I want to tell you about the adorable present I made her, but she might read this so I'll tell you later. Also seeing the Skelton Key with Andrea tommorrow. I'm going to be scared out of my wits, I hate scary movies.

3 more day 'till school!

Thank's to all my friends who actually cared enough to read and even comment on me whining about my love life. I try not to complain that much, but we ran out of icecream that day and I was in a crappy mood. Anyway your comments made me feel loved.

Today was great day! I went to the mall and found the perfect b-day present for Zach. Along with a Borders gift card I got him a Darth Vader student planner thingie. (If you aren't one of the my closer friends you might not get the Darth Vader inside joke on that.) Then I ran into and bunch of people I knew and bumped into and flirted with this hott guy. He wasn't my usual type, but he had killer eyes and gorgeous lips.

So I also stopped by to see Crystallynn where she works/volunteers at Pet Adventures. I got to hold cute snakes and a kitten. I also got to meet her really hott, french-accented co-worker Damien. He gets a 9 1/2 out of 10.

Most importantly I got to find out whats make the Ambercombie and Finch store smell so good. They have their own cologne and I'm obsessed with it. I sprayed it on my wrists and onto one of those cardboard things. I may just save money so I can get a bottle of it for myself. It's man's cologne so I'm not going to wear it, just spray it on all my pillows and sniff it constantly.

Till later. Peace and love!

Today's post is going to be about relationships since that is what causes the most of the drama in my life.

I personally have never had a boyfriend and I probably never will. My friends kind of ruined love for me. I always end up getting in the middle of everyone else's relationships. In some cases it was my fault (like with Tigmo) but usually I just get sucked in. In short I've seen so many relationships fail for so many reasons that I can't believe in happy endings any more. I'm such a sadist.

I have lots of my friends ditch me for their boyfriends. This totally sucks. It makes me really sad and feel lame. I don't understand how a guy can come between once really close friends. I guess I wasn't that important to them.

 Lots of my friends talk about nothing but their boyfriends. Sorry, but I don't care if whats-his-name's favorite color is blue. He's your boyfriend, not mine. Stop talking about him.

The worse part of your friends having boyfriends is when the guys break their hearts. I hate it when my friends cry. I hate to say I-told-you-so but I'm really good at judging bad relationships, I'm usually not suprised when break-ups happen.

I'm doomed to a life of no love and always believing members of the opposite sex have a giant flaw so I can't go out with them. I'm going to be the lonely old lady living in a big, empty house with her 20 cats. Please come and visit me. I'm sure my cats won't mind.

Peace and love!
