Bridges and Balloons- Joanna Newsom |

Well it looks like I am officially 16, I feel like I am 100, and I think I still look like I am 12.
I leave in about four hours for the airport.
I am really screwed, I am no where near finished packing.
It's really weird, it hasnt sunk in one bit. I mean I have been thinking about going on this program to England for months, but now that its within hours reach, it seems even farther. I mean honestly I am more excited right now to go to New York.
I am sort of nervous.
I am overpacking.
There is so I didn't do.
So many movies I didnt see.
There are so many letters I have to write.
So many things, but then again I guess thats what my August will be for.
Don't think twice its alright...
I don't know whether I will be able to post or email anybody while I am gone, but to the few people who actually reads the shit I write, Have a really good July, it's summer, do what pleases you, make it memorable, all that cliche shit.
I don't know what I am doing.
What did I get myself into.
There are so many things I am expecting out of England, I just hope I accomplish some of them.
Till next time.

How ironic/typical of me is it that the one thing I have been waiting for since well last summer is finally here and for some reason I can't even be happy.
I think I am just out of energy, I am going to sleep maybe it will feel like summer toomarow.

Company in my back- Wilco |
] |
Well I have recieved the list of people who will be going to England with me.
It's weird seeing all these peoples, names and addresses and knowing that I will spending four weeks with these people.
I am getting nervous and it's sort of sinking in, that I am actually leaving the country.
I leave in 10 days.
Also, last night Wilco was amazing. That may be one of the few concerts that I will attend where I am not saddened that they didn't play some of my favorites of theirs, I understand.
10 days.
The school year is almost over, and the summer is finally approaching.
Early, Late, Whatever.

It's sad that I remember doing this exact post last year, and I can see myself writing this lame post for the next two years.
So yea.

Taking People- Cat Power |
] |
I've spent the past couple of hours in my room putting up a bunch of crap on my walls, listening to music and drinking red bull.
Its funny that toomarow I should be 'finished' with reorganizing the things on my walls.
In the back of my head I know that the second I arrive home from my trip to England and New York, Im going to have new things to put on my walls and new ideas.
That happened last summer.
In a way I hope I have some new ideas but I like my room right now a lot, and I hope that I will come back and love my room and that it will be bittersweet to be home, but that will be the true test. To see if I like my room when I come back. I failed last year.
Will I fail yet again at something as simple as this?
Only time will tell.
I guess since redbull doesnt effect my actions it just affects my mind.
Oh well.

It Just Is- Rilo Kiley |
] |
I am still in awe.
Yesterday was so I hate using it but, amazing.
Somehow we managed to get about 15 feet away from the stage when Rilo Kiley show. It was such a great show. And before they came on, Pedro came on the stage and said his famous line "If you vote for me all your wildest dreams will come true" which was funny. Before seeing Coldplay it was the best show I had ever seen. Everyone knew all the lyrics. The energy was so fun.
Jenny was great, and Blake was really into it, and it was funny finding out that he was Joey in Boy Meets world.
We ran from the Rilo Kiley show to see Wilco and as we starting pushing our way through the crowd and then Jesus ect. came on and it was perfect, they played 3 songs and then the show ended,
After Wilco was Weezer.
During Weezer was crazy, we were being pushed around to know end.
But from Bauhaus to Coldplay was the worst.
During the wait for Coldplay was awful, we were getting pushed around like crazy, and my sandals snapped and I had no shoe. And then I got seperated from Michelle. We found Michelle.
But, the best part of the night was when Chris Martin first walked on the stage. I of course got the chills, I mean hes an actual living person, just like anyone else except not at all. So During the Coldplay show, I had no shoes, was sweating like crazy, completely smushed against people I didn't know, but it didnt matter.
I was seeing my favorite Live for the first time.
It was very surreal, And to top it off we managed to be about 20 feet from the stage. We were so close, I saw Chris Martin's sweat I saw he had written on his hand, I could see the detail in his jacket, and the piano keys, I could see the details of Guy Berryman, Johnny Buckland, and Will Champion.
It was the perfect moment being there.
For once yesterday I lived in the moment, knowing I have decades to relive the moment, as I will do with every significant event or unsignificant event in my life.
Coldplay didn't play my favorite song by them, but it didn't matter.
Last night was good, It was a great day, I don't want to say it was the best day in my life, because I have had some memorable ones, but so far it was a great day, filled with lots of realities that made it seem more real.
It didn't matter that it was hot, or that I didnt feel comfortable during part of the day, or that I was sleep deprived and dehydrated because I saw Coldplay Live.
I am still in awe. We were so close.
Also, Its MAY.
