half day today started off with a bio test that killed me and was followed by lunch with my bio class during which jennay and mumu were being bio nerds about the surface area of the chicken lol. afterwards mumu jenny and i went to jennys and looked for my shoe and watched some of VELVET GOLDMINE WHICH MIND YOU IS THE BEST MOVIE EVER MADE. jonathan rhys meyers= love. misha and rhia came over and we went to a little theatre to see ALEXANDER. its over 3 hours long but wildly entertaining and jonathan rhys meyers (again) + jared leto = love. it was hard not to get antsy and its just a bad movie to see when youre completely obnoxious.

taking back sunday show 11/19: aisha and i got tickets for $60 from sascha. then taking back sundays manager came into the line and was like 'the band decided to release some of the tickets we hold for record execs and people like that because they dont want to see you kids getting ripped off and scalpers benefitting.' i told him i got mine for $60 and he pitied me but not more than we pitied ourselves for our stupidity. blehh. so we got in and ran to the stage and got 2 people back. some stupid girls in front of us in little tank tops and meticulously applied makeup and necklaces i wish they would choke on were being really annoying and going 'omg wheres steveennnn???'. a guy started mocking them and being like 'how old are you, 12?!' and one of the girls tried to be the tough chick (she was 4 ft nothign i swear with a pussy bf) and yell back and she even tried to punch him LOL. she called over security and tried to get him kicked out but the guard was like 'im sorry i cant take him out for being an asshole because he has the right to be one.' (bless you you clever pumpkin). then the girl tried to make peace with people around her and some of us shoved them purposely. it was good stuff. made friends with people in front who kept me from getting shoved away.

Last Yesterday went on first and at first i thought it was Funeral for a friend cuz the singer looked just like matt davies. then i realzied it really really wasnt them. they were pretty good anyway.

FFAF went on next and it was awesome. im in love with matt davies. they did 5 or 6 songs: juneau, bullet theory, escape artists never die, this years most open heartbreak, and a few more. boppping alone is muchos fun. i think aisha got out of the pit after them so she could get merch during atreyu and get back in for the TBS pit but she didnt get back to me after :( lol she got to the middleish with tiggs.

i hadnt seen atreyu before but they were really really good. i think ive heard like one song by them. i couldnt keep my eyes off the drummer cuz he was drumming like a madman while screaming/singing at the same time. lmao the guitarist was so small and compact we thought he looked like a teenage mutant ninja turtle. and then some guys from FFAF came out to finish the last song which made me muchos happy.

before TBS, everyone started getting really aggressive and trying to pull me apart or something but i didnt let go of the girls in front of me and somehow got shoved into the barrier sideways lol. then TBS came out and the crowd went wild. adam was 'dressed up' for nyc cuz it was like a home show and it was lovelllyy. damn my ghetto disposable camera for spazzing on me. they did a mix of pretty much all the songs off 'where you want to be' and 'tell all your friends'. after that we sang happy bday to eddie (i cant believe hes only 21) as they brought out a cake and adam was like 'i swear i can smell that cake all the way from here'. and other funny little comments. he pointed to the front where we were alot cuz we were being smooshed by sardines and smacked in the head by 10 crowdsurfers in a row. bastards. after going backstage they came out for an encore and did cute without the e and an acoustic version of new american classic. good good stuff. i love that band way way too much/ the mic swinging was too aweomse to handle. it was like warped but i wasnt a football field away lol

hellogoodbye/socratic 11/21:got to the venue in the middle of socratic's set. they are AWESOME. i thought they were halifax for most of the set for some unexplainable reason lol. then they did william jennings and i realized they were socratic and i was in loooove. i cant wait for their cd next year.

hellogoodbye came onstage to set yp and i got all stalker photo-ish over chris because he used to be in a cutthroat kiss and had timas hat lol. i dont understand how people as skinny as chris can manage to drum and stay up straight. he was wear an i love ny shirt :) lol. then forrest came onstage and they did likr 5 or 6 songs. my back was still hurting from taking abck sunday so when they did shimmy shimym quarter turn aisha and i were literally only doing quarter turns cuz we couldnt move much without soreness lol. they are such a happy band.

these review are getting shorter and shorter and less and less articulate.

Pete on IMX yesterday:

counted down the hours from first period on. staying at school until 4 and missed open mic (and rahats rendition of avril lavigne which was apparently the highlight of the thing and jason putting rap lyrics to emo songs lol). ended up running over 10 avenue blocks to the imx studios cuz the bus was so. slow. picked up pretty $4 flowers on my way there and were beaten up from my lame running lol. met up with riana luis tiggs tranette, sharon and marisa. such a little social gathering lol. and effie was outside later but i didnt see her :(

went inside, waited forever. some ghetto guy was annoying people and singing, it was so strange. riana and i were exhausted. harassed aishas cell so i could get her to leave right after open mic (i missed their gig :-( ). got aisha and maria in 5 or 10 minutes before we went into the studio. riana luis and i were right in front of the stage and sat on those horrible black boxes that they kept moving around. diiiie bitch.

pete was on first and dude i havent seen him since june. since then hes gotten emo hair and a brand new wardrobe lol. his reddishpink blazers was awesome: it had a bat on the pocket and 'tear catcher' stamped on the back. hes sucha lil scenester. i was smiling like an idiot during his entire interview. he kept glancing over at us in front of him lol. during the break he saw me and was like 'hey how are you?' 'good! i havent seen you in a really long time' 'yeah i know...' and he told tiggs he liked her hair again lol. and somehow riana brought up a convo about degrassi. obviously i am too cool to watch that show. but everyone else does. damn you noggin. pete was like 'i love degrassi!' and later on 'i want to marry stephen from laguna beach.' haha.

pete started talking about how much he loved morrissey and little did he know that aisha had a little pre- xmas present for him that was just that.. he had to leave right after his session so he said bye to everyone and as he was outside aisha RAN out and gave him the present which he sed hed open later and good stuff liek that. result: his journal entry today. WOOT WOOT. MAKING OUR 4/5 DAY BREAK WLEL WORTH IT. happy times a million.
