Hello Tomorrow

By: Zebrahead

Hello tomorrow and good-bye to yesterday
We've been waiting for this moment

And we still don't know what to say
We may never find the answers or know the reason why
Why we both decided we should say good-bye
Nothing but good things are coming my way
If you are going please let me stay
You bring me down when I'm getting high
You turn me on I amplify
1 -2-3 times you've broken me (Broken Me)
I won't bleed like this forever
I'm down to ride but my wings are severed
Blindside blitz- evacuation
I'm stuck in hell your on vacation
1-2-3 times you've broken me (Broken Me)

I've been waiting
Waiting for the day
I've been waiting
Waiting for the day
I'm still waiting for tomorrow
Tired of living in yesterday
I've been waiting
Waiting for the day

I'd be over you Oceans, devotions, these notions run dry
Floating away and I don't know why
Spend all my days in a bottle thinking
You're like an anchor got me sinking
1-2-3 times you've broken me (broken me)
Say good-bye now and mean it forever
Got to move on and keep it together
Forget the things that you've said and you've done
That's in the past, here comes the sun
1-2-3 times you've broken me (broken me)

I've been waiting
Waiting for the day
I've been waiting
Waiting for the day
I'm still waiting for tomorrow
Tired of living in yesterday
I've been waiting
Waiting for the day

This song means more to me on a "life" level, than a "love" level, but it is good none the less.

Feelin Sickly

So, I still don't feel too hot, though I am feeling better, which is good. I stayed home all day yesterday, didn't go to work or school. I don't think Target was too happy with me, but oh well. I figure I better go in tonight regardless. I've been lounging around...either on the computer or watching Friends. My parents bought me Season 7 for my birthday, so that's all I've been watching. I also watched Joey for the first time last night. It was alright - not as funny as I hoped and yeah, Joey is still his dorky self, but it's not the same w/o the rest of the characters. That's probably the only one I'll get to watch since I normally work on Thursdays.

I have no plans for the weekend. I really need to get some work done though. Maybe I'll do some before work today if I am up to it. I almost feel guilty just lying around when I have so much work to get done. I kinda want to go get some new shoes. The ones I have are in okay shape, there's just a little cut in the sole and they squeak when I walk. I was thinking I could just use them for working and buy a new pair to wear. I really want a pair of black Vans. I saw this dude last week and he had black and gray Vans...I loved them. But then again, it's not that big of a necessity, so I dunno.

Really informative post huh?

Music: Chris Isaak - Life Will Go On

Internet Down

Well the internet at the dorms, well at least the internet in my building has been down all weekend. You know, it is very annoying. Just goes to show how much of us depend on it...either for work or entertainment. I hope it gets fixed soon...I don't like going to the library.

My birthday was fun. Went to Olive Garden for the first time and it was damn good. Then we came home and watched Chasing Liberty. I really wasn't in the mood for a love story, though it was a very good movie. There is this amazing Chris Issak song in there too. The song makes me sad just listening to it. Good lyrics and music.

I am officially done at the theater...yay! I was supposed to work yesterday, but they called and canceled my shift. I was so happy. I was able to write about 6 pages of my script. May not sound like much, but it's harder than it sounds. At least for me anyways. It's not a breeze. I have 20 pages due on Thursday and I'm on page 11 right now. It'll be tight, but I know I can finish.

Well, I just wanted to do a quick update. Hope everyone is well.

Happy Birthday to Me.

Ho-Hum

So I had a frustrating day. It wasn't bad really, I just woke up all "blah" and it pretty much stayed with me all day. Then it was compounded tonight. Though, right now, I don't feel too bad...just got done watching Mean Girls, so it took my mind off of stuff.

Looks like I may have plans Friday afterall. My one roommate isn't going to Vegas, so we'll all be going to dinner...I am really relieved about that. Walking to class today, I was seriously thinking that I should just go get my eyebrow pierced as a little birthday treat to myself....BUT...I can't...because I went to the theater and as a parting gift, I work Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Aren't they sweet?! Piercings are a no-no, though I am quitting, so what are they gonna do...oh well. I didnt' think to ask for my birthday off at the theater, because I didn't think I'd be there. But at least I have the night off. And I work both jobs Saturday and Sunday, so now I can throw out any plans I had to catch up on homework and get ahead. I am SO glad this is my last weekend at the theater.

When I was leaving the parking lot of the theater, I pulled up behind this man. I am sitting there, waiting for him to make his move, when I notice his reverse lights are on. So I'm watching him closely and he starts to back up...I try to put my car in reverse, but I'm fumbling and I only have time to lay on my horn right before he backs into me. I am already pissed because I work all weekend, so at this point, I'm pretty upset. He gets out of his car; it's a short, Asian man, and apologizes profusely and says he didn't see me. And in my head I'm thinking, "yeah you didn't see me because you didn't look in your mirror, dumbass." But he walked to the front of my car and said it was fine and I believed him because his bumper was flawless. If you've ever noticed, Cavaliers have a pointy front and then the license plate, so that's what he hit, which is really no biggie...I've hit my parents license plate a few times. But that's not the point...people have eyes and cars have rearview mirrors for a reason. I was pleasant to the guy...I wasn't nice but I wasn't bitching at him either. If it was something worse, I probably would have. I'm just glad my car's okay.

Okay, I better go...I need to figure out a homework plan. I hope everyone is well...and I shall post again when I have time.

I'm So Tired

Everytime I use that phrase I think of the Beatles song. Very true though. The last week or so I have had a major lack of sleep. I'm still trying to adjust to working and going to school. I am trying to figure out the best ways to budget my time and I think it's slowly but surely coming along. Taking a break from reading right now. The book I am reading is pretty good. It's called Not Much Just Chillin', The Hidden Lives of Middle Schoolers. This writer/reporter infiltrated a middle school in Maryland and is writing about it. And it's amazing the stuff she mentions. A lot of the things she pinpoints or that the kids do I can remember happening to me when I was in junior high. It just came out in paperback...it was published in 2003, so it's pretty recent.

So, it kind of looks like the dinner plans for my birthday are falling through. I think my other suitemate (the one w/the same birthday), is going to go to Vegas, which means I have no plans. That bums me out. Maybe something will be done spur of the moment, but I kind of doubt it. Everyone around here does their own thing. I guess we'll see. I'd probably go home if I could. I refuse to sit here though...even if I have to go do something on my own, I'm not sitting here. Geez, that sounds so lame. Anyways...

Everything else seems to be going okay. I hung out w/my friend Jillian last night. We keep finding more things in common; it's kinda cool. She rented Duplex last night w/Ben Stiller and Drew Barrymore. I know it didn't do well at the box office, but I really liked it. It had some funny parts and some good lines. I recommend it.

Speaking of movies; I need to get started on my script. I was watching TV this morning and thinking about how every movement the actor makes, every facial expression...anything the actor does needs to be documented in the script. I think that's gonna be the hardest part of me - all the description. Dialogue seems to come pretty easily to me, so I'm not too worried about that. I have a conference with my professor on Thursday, so I need to make sure I have at least an idea of a beginning to my story.

Well enough stalling, I need to get back to reading...my plan is to read until 2am and then go to bed...I can't wait.

Los Lonely Boys

I was on my way to work last night when a radio station here played Los Lonely Boy's new single...and I loved it and decided that I was going to buy the album and you know what? It rocks.

Vroom Vroom

Went to the NASCAR race yesterday in Fontana. It was AWESOME. Granted it was really hot, but the actual race was at night, which was nice. The cars look so pretty under the lights. I took 4 rolls of film, so hopefully I got some good shots. Though, I'm sure a lot that I took during the beginning of the race might not have come out because of the sun, but I'll just have to see. I took most of my pictures during caution laps, but even then the cars are going around 70mph. I had so much fun. My friend's favorite driver won (she was also the one I went with), so that was really cool. I was happy for her. I just had so much fun. I know people think it's a stupid sport, but I can't help it, I love it. Actually, on the 2nd, I went to this party type thing in Ontario and met 4 drivers and then yesterday met another one. The guy I met yesterday is from Bakersfield (my neck of the woods...sort of) and I just have to say he is so hot...much hotter in person. Got my picture taken with him too. Hopefully it comes out well. I also spent a little more money than I should have. Funny thing is I spent it on my parents, not me. The most expensive thing I bought myself was $5. There is another Cup race coming up in February that I'd love to go to...I'll have to see though. Another cool thing...the girl I went w/to the race..she is also a big Beatles fan! That's so awesome...we're the same major and we both love NASCAR and The Beatles.

In other news...I am officially quitting the theater. I decided that I would try to keep the job, but when I went to work on Saturday, the big boss lady said they couldn't "accept my availability," so I will be turning in a 2 weeks notice. Plus she said that she heard I was turning in my two weeks notice anyways. It's just weird, cause it's like...was she going to fire me if I wasn't already thinking about quitting? I dunno, it was an awkward situation. I'm planning on dropping it off tomorrow before I go to work at Target, so the 20th would officially be my last day. Perhaps I could pick up some extra hours on the weekends at Target.

I'm happy, I got my birthday off at Target. Not sure what I'm doing though. Found out tonight that one of my suitemates has the same birthday as me (never met anyone w/the same birthday), so we might go to dinner if she doesn't go to Vegas. If we don't do it that night, I'd like to do something...after all, I'm the big 23..heh.
I feel really fortunate because once again, I was blessed with awesome people to live with. I think it's gonna be a good year. We are rarely all here at the same, which, to be honest, is sort of nice.

Gave my car his first washing Friday morning..and it sucked cause by the time I went to work Friday night, he was dusty again. I hate living by the freeway. And yes, my car is male...I'm not sure why...but it's just a feeling.

Okay, I will go...let's see, it's midnight and I want to stay up til at least 2am reading. It's the 3rd week and I'm already behind.

The Highlight of my day...

My paycheck was $311.01.

Yeah buddy.

WTF

It is the 2nd week of school and I am already stressed out. Oh yeah, this is just going to be a wonderful semester. @%#&!!
