"We begin on Christmas Eve with me, Mark, and my roommate, Roger.  We live in an industrial loft on the corner of 11th St. and Avenue B, the top floor of what was once a music publishing factory.  Old rock'n'roll posters hang on the walls.  They have Roger's picture advertising gigs at CBGB and The Pyramid Club.  We have an illegal wood burning ( Read more... )

Tomorrow is Christmas Eve.

Sorry to state the obvious.  I just can't believe it.  Things have gone by so fast.... "I can't believe a year went by so fast; time to see what we have time to see...."  Sorry.... that was my Renthead mind going off...

So far, four people have said this on separate occasions.  It doesn't feel like Christmas.  Why?  Why ( Read more... )

It's sad when you know you've hit your lowest.

And I think I did last night.

I went to the movies with my mother.  It was ladies night (also known as ladies pay $3.00 for a movie on Tuesday nights) and she hadn't seen Harry Potter yet, so we went together.  It was fun.  We saw Holly and Cailey.  We both knew it was them.  But we didn't really see ( Read more... )

I can't take Iris off repeat.  The song by The Goo Goo Dolls.  I've tried to find something else to listen to, but that's just what I keep putting on.  I can't help it.  It just fits right now.  It fits.

I'm warning anyone who reads this entry, that it will probably be very hypocritical.  With each paragraph, I'll probably contradict the previous ( Read more... )

Nothing much happened today.  I got a cool ornament that says "Nina National Honors Society 2005" in pretty writing from my Secret Santa today.  It's awesome.  I love it.  I'm hangning it on the tree once we put it up.

I went to Sam Goody with my brother and Jake after school today.  Ran into Shawn, Claire and Jin.

When we got home, my dad said ( Read more... )

It's been a pretty good weekend.

We had the blood drive on Friday.

I tried to donate.  It didn't work out so well.  All the little tests they do before hand were fine, but when they stuck the needle in my arm, they got too near a valve.  They only got about half a pint.  And I got a hematoma, so they had to stop.  Half a pint of blood.  It was a ( Read more... )

I got into Grand Valley State University.

Apparently it's not that big of a deal thought, because I was told everyone gets in.  Oh well.  It still made my day a bit better I think.

Today was... I don't know.  Okay?  Not so great?  Terrible?  Good?  I really don't know.  We had a lot to do because it was our choir concert tonight.  So we missed ( Read more... )

My past few days?

Boring as shit.

Nothing new really.

Nothing fun.

Nothing exciting.

Just kind of boring.

I've been in a very good mood though!  *Smiles as you all cheer for joy* ;-)

I've seen Rent five times since Wednesday night.  Yes, that's right.  Five times.  I don't care.  I'm going to see it more too.  It's in our theatre until the end of ( Read more... )
