*It is around 5 in the morning and I woke up because I am feeling so shitty. Thank you to Christopher and JEN for calling because I am not feeling well. That is so sweet of you! I love you guys*

*Anyway I don't know why my immune system is so shot. Possibly the stress and fear of starting work. Who knows*

*Anyway I just wanted to thank you in particular Jen. I will call you back as soon as I can talk and swallow! MWAH!*

*Oh man last night was the best ever. It was so much like old times in a way. Michelle and I rocked out the mall. I got all dressed up and my 8 year old sister's advice was for me to bring home some cute boys (including one for her). Of course she told me all this inbetween verses of "I love it when you call me big PaPa." What a fuckin' riot*

*So we went to the mall. I got a new bag and matching wallet by nine west (I am such a girl). I also got new converse sneakers at journeys. They aren't chuck taylors though...they are nylon and suede...yellow and navy and they have a stripe and the star. They are way hott and so is the guy that sold them to us minus his droopy ears. He clearly fucked those up somewhere along the way when stretching. Still a cute little indie kid*

*After that we were bored...so we loaded up the 3 disc changer in the car with Good Charlotte's firt album (S/T), New Found Glory Sticks and Stones, and Blink182's Enema of the State. We blasted obnoxiously loud and sang and danced while I drove around the streets of Rockville Center and Lynbrook. It was by far the funniest thing ever and the fellow drivers found it quite amusing as well*

*I have good friends....good friends are important*

*I also have a boy to build blanket forts, eat thai food, watch silly movies, and play in the leaves with...I am a fan for sure*

Peace, Hope, and Happiness

Eat dinner...

Go out with friends...

Back home to watch Lizzie McGuire, Even Stevens, and Boy Meets World on the Disney Channel...

Bed...

*Its been non stop since I've gotten home from school. Friday night I helped my grandmother schlep my brother and sister from a baseball game to lacrosse practice to friends houses and then home for dinner and a shower and sleep. I also unpacked my car, cleaned out my room and organized all the stuff I brought home from school...exhausting*

*Saturday got up early to send Brendan off to his baseball game and took Olivia to see the Lizzie McGuire movie. It was great even the second time around. Then we went over to the record store to get the soundtrack and finally went and got some pizza for lunch. I brought her home and then 15 minutes later she wantes to be brought to her friends house so I drove her there....went out looking for a job...picked her back up and brought her to my brothers baseball game. Finally went home aroun 8 to eat dinner. My parents finally got home as well*

*Today I woke up early to go to church. Ugh. I am only going to make my parents happy. Honestly thats really the only reason I am home. They do so much for me and I know that they miss me while I am at school and I miss them too. I really appreciate everything they do for me. But I just dont't want to be here. I like my live in PA. I am scared to be home. I dont know why but I am petrified. It is going to be a real long 3 1/2 months. But anyway after church we had some family over for monthers day*

*Sue took a position as an RL in tremont for next year which means they are going to give us an apartment with two bedrooms so we will both have our own rooms. Pretty gnarly. I've been really lucky with housing so far...one day my luck is going to run out....real bad*

*So I am stuck on the Island. I need a new job because I will cry if I have to go back to Sam Goody. I keep trying to tell myself that it isn't that bad, but it is. It hurts me on the inside and I am never going to survive 3 1/2 months of it. Please save me...please*

*The End*

Peace Love and Happiness

Really

Hey Meg how are you

*If you are quiet enough, no one will know you are in there. Weep silently and dance to the music in your head*

.:So wierd to be back here:,

2003-05-03T03:45:28Z

*Yeah...its been a while....why? I've been real busy and at the same time I feel like there has been nothing to talk about. There still isn't...but will there ever be? Doubtful....very doubtful*

*Let me start with saying that you should by the Uniform Tragedy EP...it will rock your face off*

*School is coming to an end and I feel empty. For the first time ever I am sad to leave this place. And it sucks cause I know everyone is excited to get out of here and go back to their real friends back at home. I guess I wish I meant that much to the kids here. I should understand though because that's the way I felt last year...but I've grown accustomes to living in PA and I guess it's not all the bad. I've actually had fun*

*I am happy....excited for next year....fresh ideas and new faces...Unif Trag full length and maybe a spring break tour*

*And so...life goes on...*

.:But I'm ready to settle down now:.

2003-04-16T14:34:32Z

*As we are getting closer to recording and producing this EP it seems like no ones heart is in it anymore. Perhaps it's because I am the one dealing with the recording guy and working on the production of the artwork. But it seems that when I have good news about either part of the project no one is stoked about it. That is fine, if we are not into recording then we shouldn't...but someone should really tell me*

*I have my summer pretty much figured out and it isn't going to be fun...but I will make a whole lot of money which will be nice*

*Stoked about going home this weekend but at the same time not so much. Friday is Ben Kweller and maybe the Postal Service with Michelle and Joe. Saturday I am hanging out with Gene in the city. I am still amped about that...I hope he is too. Sunday is Easter with my whole extended family at my house. Monday I come back to school and only have 2 weeks left til I head home again for a solid 4 month summer break*

*That is about all from me. Everyone have a good day...It is beautiful out*

Peace, Hope, and Happiness

Really

*I'm sorry that I let you down*

Will someone please call a surgeon who can crack my ribs and repair this broken heart </3

2003-04-09T04:55:56Z

*************NEWS****************

*Tall Tom joined the Uniform Tragedy to play bass. Fun times...sounds real good. Hopefully we will be recording on Saturday morning. We wrote this little jam song and it is a lot of fun to play around. We all get a chance to solo and we play all kinds of different things. Anyway, that is fun...and hopefully they won't kick me out of the band next year when I live a mile away from campus*

*I had so much more to talk about before I opened my live journal. Why does that always happen to me?*

*I got mysteriously violently ill this evening. I thought I was going to die. And then I was laying on the couch and Gene called and we talked a whole lot and I felt way better <3*

*That is all really....pretty lonely here at Muhlenberg. Kind of sucks when the think you look forward to most is having band practice. *le sigh*

All my best
Peace, Love, and Hope,

Really

How are you doing?...Great, It's a good day.

2003-04-04T05:27:05Z

*Today was a good day all around*

*My classes were bearable. Got my haircut and it isnt too bad. A little short but it grows like a fucking weed. And it looks fine. She originally cut my bangs so that they just went straight down insteadt of sweeping to the side and I seriously looked no older than twelve. Woah buddy...I said....you need to do something about that. So she fixed them so that they swept to the side*

*Got to see Jami and Mel today which is always fun times. Those girls make me laugh so much. We went to boot girl and the diner. woo ha!*

*Band practice today was great. I think we are pretty ready for the show on Saturday. After we practiced for an hour and a half we sat around talking for another hour which is something that we have never really done. It was nice to hear what those kids felt about certain thing pertaining to school and just people and general and it makes you think to yourself "hey...I'm not alone" So yeah and that is totally going to be what touring with them will be like and I hope we make it that far cause it would certianly be uber fun*

*And then there was you...and for real...it scares me that i look forward to talking to you so much*

Every one settle down

2003-03-31T16:59:29Z

*It's been a long time but I can't say much has happened aside from being a lot happier than I was during my last post*

*I spent the weekend on Long Island. Spent some hardcore quality time with the family and for the most part it was really nice*

*My band is playing a show next weekend. It's Saturday night (we are going on at midnight) at the Empie Theater in the CA at Muhlenberg College. We will be playing with a few other sudent band and it should definitely be fun times....so come out and dance. The Uniform Tragedy on the road as Match would say*

2003-03-24T05:01:57Z

I dont want to care I want you to care I want you to show up on my doorstep and tell me that you are sorry ATTN: boyfriend and regular friends, I want you to follow through with things that you say you will do Doctors are so quick to prescribe medicine here take this and everything will be ok these pills wont stop my father from beating the shit out of me they wont make my mother care they wont make my boyfriend love me more they wont bring me more friends live for yourself but be sensitive to those around you this balance takes practice and skill being alive is not as easy as you think we can not just co-exist on the soil of America dropping bombs on our enemies and making love to whoever will put out The chain rule is no longer in effect

*Philly yesterday was uber fun times. Lots of traffic going into the city but we finally got to Kingdom Of Vegetarians around 5:30. Had some sweet and sour chicken and some pan fried noodles. Mmm mm mmm. Went over to the church and there was no one there really....except for Mike. Haha that is my luck...and what's worse, I was wearing the scarf I was making for him. I definitely felt like an asshole. But it was nice of him to come over and talk to me even though it was in a very awkward setting. The end.*

*So Del Cielo opened and they fucking rocked my face. It was an all girl band and they were definitely a lot of fun. I picked up their cd at the end of the show. Saturday looks good to me was a good dancing band but I don't know if I was too much of a fan of theirs. I will have to listen to some of their stuff again. There were definitely SEVEN people in the band and it wasnt a ska band. And they all kept trading off instruments. It was very interesting. Mates of State was really good. They are so adorable. And then finally Rainer Maria. They played such a great show, I loved every second of it*

My hearing has still not been completely restored....very disconcerting

Be good

Peace, Hope, and Happiness.

"Hey mom, I bargained with cancer today and I just wanted to let you know that you are off the hook. He said he would retreat his army of cancerous cells immediately and tomorrow when you go to the doctor, she will find no trace of you ever being ill. Your hair will grow back and you will be able to raise me and my brother as you dreamed you would. He was really quite rational, cancer. I just told him, 'HEY! I'M SIX YEARS OLD AND I NEED MY MOMMY AROUND!' All he asked for inreturn was my soul. And it's funny because I don't even believe in souls, so I agreed to give it to him. Isn't that great mommy?"

*She took hold of her mother's cold, blue hand and cried*

*All my friends are sad*

*What happened?*

*Definitely losing touch with pretty much everything. I hate being disappointed...you can't be disappointed if you have no one that you expect anything from right? right*

*I've known you for about two years now, and last night was the first time we've ever had a real conversation with each other. I honestly didn't think we'd have anything to talk about. I fell asleep dreaming of Easter Vacation...maybe something will come out of it*

Be good.

THE LIRR ROCKS MY FACE

2003-03-07T05:46:52Z

I wrote this while I was on the LIRR...I'm sorry if my pieces seem redundant or if I have already said a lot of these ideas to you in the course of conversation, but it's something that I have been feeling very strongly about recently....so deal with it

The Truth and a Half

Worrying is the modern root of all evil.
Money is scarce these days as we enter into a new era of depression.
But worrying...
Worrying is abundant as it crowds the lives of every human being.
Worrying is counterproductive.
A major setback in the progression and happiness of our race.
Everything would be okay if you were just a little bit more relaxed,
or if you could stop making every speck of life a worrysome ordeal.
Everything will fall into place...I promise.
But you worry about
What you are going to fix for dinner
What you will wear to theater
What are you going to do with the rest of your life?
Where will you be 5 years from now?
10 years?
50 years?
Who will you end up marrying?
When will you have enough time to organize your fucking sock drawer my material and then by color?
And we spend so much time worrying about these things
that we don't take advantage of opportunities that aren't neatly penciled into our daily planners.
Open your eyes and live a little.
The love of your life is standing right before you. You've just never thought of them as "more than a friend"
These may not be the most poetic words I've written, but for once it is the truth.
So...I dare you to have a near-life experience.
I dare you...

*So I'm home on spring break and I can't wait to go back to school. People on long island are so damn annoying. I have hung out with some quality people so far and some not so quality people. But I look forward to hanging out with some wonderful kids, especially tonight :)*

*Anyway, enough of that for now. This post didn't turn out the way I envisioned it, like most things I write*

*Thank you for ruining my life*

*That was so dramatic...and it wasn't directed towards anyone...and I'm not sure if I even really meant it*

*So today I'm going to go to the gym with my mommy, shower and blow dry my hair, paint my nails, and hang out with Chris...fun times to the maxxx*

*Tomorrow I should probably do some work and practice piano*

*Okay, enough of the most uninteresting post that ever lived*
