Music:	Bleeding Through - On Wings of Lead

I forgot about Livejournal, again. Since my last update, I've bought a good few CDs. The Agony Scene, "The Darkest Red"; Finch, "Say Hello to Sunshine"; The Hurt Process, "A Heartbeat Behind"; As I Lay Dying, "Shadows are Security"; Sounds of the Underground, "US/Canadian Summer 2005 Tour CD/DVD". Every single one of them is good as fuck. Especially The Hurt Process. God, I love that CD. I'm freakin' addicted to it.

A few shows coming up that I want to go to. Calico System, Across Five Aprils and GODS play next Wednesday at Swayzes. I would love to go see On Broken Wings al three locations that they are playing in Georgia, but the only one that I could possibly go to is the one at the Masquerade. Buyt, I doubt I can go. July 15, The Agony Scene is playing at the Masquerade. I might actually be able to go to that since it's so close to my birthday. God I hope so... we missed them last time; though, the last show was better since they played with Misery Signals. Lastly, It Dies Today and Black Dahlia Murder play August 30 at the Masquerade. That one I might be able to go to, since I'll be 18.

Looking for a job... shitty.

Music:	The Agony Scene - Scapegoat

This week can't get any worse. To top off the fact that we all lost Ransom and Alex; at school on Friday, I figured out that Amber had gotten placed into the hospital under the Intensive Care Unit. She was on her way to Ransom's candle light vigil, when a car hit her as well. I havn't gotten hardly any details about it, but from what I hear, she's going to be okay. I really hope so; keep her in your prayers regardless.

The cherry on the top of the ice cream for my fucking week was probably the hardest one that I had to deal with. Me and Jerry were on our way to Blockbuster last night, along with Kevin, who was driving in front of us. When we got to Riverstone, me and Jerry turned in around where the Starbucks was to avoid traffic. When we got to the Blockbuster, I noticed that there was a white Jimmy rolled over on it's top. Of course, what was Kevin driving? A white Jimmy. So I ran down to the accident, and finalized that it was a white Jimmy that had gotten into the accident. I almost lost it and broke down into tears right there in the parking lot. After trying to get close enough to see if he was okay, I saw him sitting in the back on the ambulance. He waved at me, letting me know that he was alright. Jerry and I made a few phonecalls, letting people know that he was in an accident but was okay. The worst Kevin got was a gash on his hand from the glass. He's bruised up and has a good bit of cuts on him, but they say he'll be okay. I don't know what I would have done had Kevin not been alright...

I've had enough of this car crash shit. Everyone this week that has been involved in a crash, I have known. I'm tired of it. I'm tired of seeing my friends in pain, and the others worrying about them. I'm marking this week in my calendar as the 'worst week of my life.'

Music:	As I Lay Dying - Meaning in Tragedy

Today, two people that I knew and talked to just days before... are now gone. Ransom Tipton and Alex Yurewich passed away no less than 24 hours ago... they were in a collision with a Dodge pick-up truck at 7:00 p.m. last night. They were both airlifted out of the crash scene and taken to North Fulton Regional Hospital and placed under critical condition. Not long after... Ransom passed away due to massive head trauma... No more than 18 hours later, Alex also passed away due to massive head trauma...

These were two people that I knew and cared about. And in a instant, they're gone... Everything today was horrible. First, the only one missing from our lives was Ransom. That was bad enough; everyone was crying, holding and comforting each other. Then, in the midst of it all, Sebring announced over the radio that Alex had passed. This was far too much of a burden for everyone. I don't think it could have gotten any worse. I was doing all I could to help people, and hold back the tears myself... I couldn't stand seeing people that I care for acting like that... so I had to leave school.

They were just too fucking young... both of them were sixteen... SIXTEEN! That shouldn't be... Everyone is going to miss Ransom and Alex. They were two people that were nice to everyone, and never did anything to harm anyone else. Sure, they would joke around; but who doesn't? These were two innocent... children... Nothing is going to feel the same at Cherokee High School anymore... I won't be able to go to my 7th period class, where normally, I would see Ransom out on the front porch of the trailor next door. He was a class clown, and we all loved him for it. He was one of those people who made your day better just by being himself... And Alex; Alex was one of those kids you could just walk up to and hug just because he was so adorable. When you saw him in the hallway, no matter who you were, he would pay you attention and give you a hand shake... I'm going to miss those days where I could depend on Ransom and Alex to brighten my day...

May Ransom Tipton and Alex Yurewich rest in peace... God bless both of you for being such great people... and friends...

Music:	Caplana - Your Deadliest Weapon

Holy Hell; I just got back from the best local show that I have ever seen. Not only did I know basically every band that played there, but they were all amazing. City of Canton: Battle of the Bands 05'; and probably the last one, I might add. Kelly's Heroes, Caplana, Icarus Collide, and Chamberlain's Charge played tonight. They were all amazing, but one stood out above them all; Chamberlain's Charge tore the living fuck out of the place. Apparently, the City of Canton doesn't approve of metal (screaming) music. Near the end of the second out of four songs that Chamberlain's Charge played, the city officials shut off the vocals for Luke's mic. Well, I told him to fuck the mic, and he said that he "can't do it." Did he do it? Shit yeah, he did it. Not only with no mic, but with my assistance. Haha. I love that kid.

Anyways, continuing on with the show. On the last song Chamberlain's Charge played, they shut off Ricky's guitars. Again, did Ricky stop playing? Hell no! Ricky just kept on going... and going... and going... Even though he had no sound coming out of the guitar, he STILL had the crowd going like crazy. This is the best part; okay? On the last song, near the beginning, I noticed a nice set of flashing lights reflecting off the back of the stage. I turn around to see a cop car sitting behind the crowd. A minute later, another cop car showed up; following another, and another, and another. Finally, I counted six cop cars. They didn't exactly storm the place, but they started controlling the crowd, and moving up to the stage to stop the band from playing. The best thing was seeing Ricky, playing guitar with a crowd of fans cheering him on as cops come up behind him. God, that was by far the BEST local show I've EVER been to.

Update again soon, Night Hoosiers.

I've been sick for the past few days. It sucks, but on the bright side, I do have people who care enough for me to bring me things. Leslie and Alicia came by yesterday and brought me chicken & stars soup, rainbow bread sandwich, an orange, raisens and strawberry jello. Not only that, but Leslie bought me a movie. How awesome is she?! I love her so much. I really thank both of you for bringing me all that stuff and coming to see me. It made me feel all special. :)

Jerry, Brad and I went out on Thursday afternoon to downtown Canton to skate/bike up the terrain. Jerry found a nice little 2' ledge outside of a law firm office that he can now 180º off of almost perfectly every time. He also managed to land a four-stair on his very first day. That's not as easy as it sounds. I'm proud of that kid. Not only that, but Brad is also regaining his bike skills. He landed a 360º only after a few trys. That's hard as shit. I didn't do much of anything, mainly because my skateboard is a piece of shit, and I need to wait until I can get it fixed up with a whole new deck, trucks and wheels. I'm also going to save up for a bike so I can get back into BMX. I get to be the official photographer for Jerry and Brad. And, if I can talk Ethan into coming out one of these days, I can get some shots of him while I'm at it.

The band hasn't been doing a whole lot lately. We all decided to hold off practices until Summer time, mainly because we're all so busy with school. It gets hard to find days to get Ethan all the way up to Atlanta to his Mom's place after practices on a Thursday night, you know? But, we are still writing things. In fact, I think Randy and Ethan have been working on a few songs, last I heard. Bad news on the line-up, though. Sadly, Will is going to be moving this summer, so we will need to find a replacment for him. It sucks, I like hanging out with him; he's a good guy. But, if anyone in the Canton/Woodstock area plays bass, and enjoys our type of music, feel free to get in contact with any of us and we'll see about welcoming you to the band this summer.

Other than those few things, nothing else extremely exciting has happened. Oh, I got my tux for prom; it's snazzy as Hell. Hopefully Leslie will like it. :) A nice meaty entry for you guys. Until next time; Night hoosiers.

She makes me so happy, and I find it amazing that someone's presence can make you feel so good. Despite how much these poems suck, they are for her. They came from... my heart; amazingly enough.

No matter how rocky the road,
how rough the storm between us,
or whatever you could say.
I need you to know,
that no matter what happens,
I'm here to stay...

So many times I've said that "I love you,"
but now I've etched it into my heart,
and on my heart forever it shall stay.

I got to hold her hand today, and it was great.

I was hungry, and I made this for Leslie.

Jesus. I havn't seen Swayzes as packed as it was last night since Avenged Sevenfold played there two years ago. With Honor, Comeback Kid, and Bane tore the place down. I'm talking in literal terms, too. People were hanging from the rafters, and tearing the ceiling down. It felt like I was at the Matchbook Romance show at last years Warped, I was so packed in there. Crazy as Hell, and there is only more to come. I can't believe that Swayzes has Terror playing in a month or two.. That show is going to knock Swayzes to the ground. Definitely going to that show. Also, they have Bury Your Dead, Casey Jones, and more Comeback Kid in the line-up. It's shows like that, that keep Swayzes in business.

Other than Swayzes, I spent my weekend with Jerry, Leslie and Alicia. I had a good time. We watches scary movies, ate smiley fries, and jumped on the trampoline. Good times... :)

I'm spent. Night hoosiers.

Finally got a band together. This is going to be really fun. It's been less than a week since we formed, and already we have songs written, music ready for the picking, and a full band put together. This is out roster, as of today.

Line-up

Vocals - Jerry Wallace
Vocals - Yours truly.
Guitar - Ethan Glover

We play metalcore-ish music, but we are weird, so it's going to sound interresting when we finally release something. Anyways, other than hanging out with my friends, nothing has happened. I'll post again when something does, or something good develops with the band. Night hoosiers.

Another typical week at Cherokee. It seems that every day, you can smell the shit brewing behind the school in that factory more and more. It's disgusting, who the fuck came up with the bright idea to build a sewage treatment center behind a school and in the middle of a public park? Damned morons.

I bombed the Hell out of a literature test, but my teacher is awesome and is allowing me to retake it. I'm going to pass this time. I also think we failed our video project, badly. We really underestimated the time it took to make the video, and pissed around for a week and a half. Oh well, I'll make the grade up in the next project.

I skipped out on Mean Girls tonight. I would've gone, but I guess there were more important things then seeing a band that I've seen a few times in the past. Sorry Cody, I'll make it to the next one, you understand how things go. Lol.

You know, girls are really confusing and difficult sometimes...

_________________________________________Edit________________________________________________

I'm overly pissed off right now. APPARENTLY my mother just so happened to plan a trip to Florida on the same weekend as the Norma Jean concert, after I had told her about it two months before. I probably wouldn't have been able to go, anyways. She told me that she would think about letting me go if there were enough people with me, but now she takes back her words and says that she doesn't want me there because it's a "bad place for someone my age to be". She can be such a bitch sometimes... Thanks mom... I appreciate it... while ALL my friends are watching Norma Jean rip the stage apart, I'll be sitting in Florida... bored off my FUCKING ASS!

Fuck this, I hate being 17... when I'm 18, I'm going to things whether she says I can or not. And, if she pulls that bullshit card about; "while you live under my roof, I have the say-so." then I'll FUCKING move out!

Sorry folks, for not updating in a while. I've been busy this Christmas break, and I am just now getting the spare time on my clock to actually update. It's been a slow break, and nothing has really happened.

Christmas was alright. I got a few CDs, and a game or two for the computer, the usual lump sum of money, and that about covers it.

New Years Eve... Mike's mom makes lots of wine... we drink lots of wine... Frank pukes in Mike's front yard... and Mike passes out in his driveway... classic time. We got Alicia to come over at about, 2:30 in the morning to hang out. We talked for a while and then turned on a Family Guy DVD. Frank crashed, Alicia crashed, Mike kept dozing off, and I kept watching Family Guy. Next thing we know, it's 7:00 in the morning, and Alicia needs to go home. I wanted her to stay so she didn't get in a wreck or something when she was driving home; but she drove anyways. Glad she made it back okay.

Now, I am working on painting my room. I had to strip all my posters off my wall... and now it looks a Hell of a lot bigger since the walls were light underneath those posters. The bitch about it was, all the posters were held up by staples, so I had to patch... every... last... one of those little bastards with nail-hole filler. But, I got that done, sanded that walls down, and painted all the edging to the doors and floors. Tomorrow, I finish the walls, put my new computer deck up, and finish moving my room around.

I havn't gone to ANY shows recently, but I am going to try and go to Swayzes on the 8th to see 7-10 Split, Atherton, and Come Out Swinging. You guys need to go support Atherton, they are a great local band.

I want to see Sami...

I'm going to quit boring you people with my life stories. Night hoosiers.

Music:	7-10 Split - Everyone Dies Alone

Today was pretty depressing, overall. I woke up at 10:30, no thanks to my Dad -(I asked him to wake me up early, but he didn't... go figure.)-. Anyways, thanks to Sami, she called me at 10:30 to get me up because I asked her to be my back-up in case my Dad failed to do his job... as he did. Love her so much. But, onto the depressing part;

My day was normal up until about 5:00 in the afternoon when my Mom called. She told me to get all dressed up for a viewing at funeral home. Apparently a girl named Meagan Evans had been very sick for the past... eight or nine years with a brain tumor. They had given her surgery and other medical procedures in the past to try and get rid of the tumor, but they could never extract it all. She dealt with is for years, and finally passed away about a week or so ago. She was only seventeen years old... seventeen! I'm only seventeen... It really makes you think...

When I was getting off the phone with Sami tonight, I said "I love you" to her with more stress and meaning than I ever have in the past, because life is such a fragile thing, and can be lost in a split second. I could never live with myself if I hadn't told her that I loved her, and that next day, hearing that she had passed away... It would kill me inside forever...

Anyways; that's been my day, and now it's almost 1:00 AM. So I'm gonna get some sleep, because Sami is apparently going to call me at 8:00 AM this time at my dumb-ass request. Lol. Night hoosiers.

Livejournal; Never thought I would ever create another one of these. I guess I did it because Livejournal has a lot of my friends on it that don't have Xanga. So, yeah...

If you've kept up with my Xanga in the past, you'll know where I'm going with this. If not, I am dropping you face first into the street on this post.

Finals continued today, and they are almost over. I should have gotten out at 10:15, but I stayed until 11:55. Anywho, I stayed because me, Brad, Alicia, Jerry, Kevin, Ricky (Stamboni), Katie, Kalie, and a few other people met up and drove over to Mellow Mushroom to get some pizza. After we ate, we all went down to a park of some sort and played around there. I stole Kalie's cell phone and cigarettes. She chased me around for a few minutes, and then gave them to Brad. Jerry, Kevin and I left after that, and now I am at home. Listening to some music, and that'll about do it.

A few shows coming up that you people should know about:

12/17 Swayzes: Kids Like Us, CASEY JONES, Shot Point Blank, Twilight of the Idols, FIGHT LIKE A BRAVE
12/18 Swayzes: Sour Diesel, Octobers Murder Mystery, BURN YOU BEAUTIFUL, AGNUS DEI, Bleeding Romance, Vis Vires
12/22 Swayzes: Christmas Party; MEAN GIRLS
12/26 Swayzes: MEAN GIRLS, RUCKSPIN, The Autumn Memory, Epiphany (Support Mean Girls and Ruckspin!)
1/8 Swayzes: 7-10 SPLIT, ATHERTON, COME OUT SWINGING (Very good show, support Atherton!)
1/21 Swayzes: Treephort, MEAN GIRLS, Artless Assassins, FSP, Cash Tuesday
1/23 Swayzes: The Warriors, Reflux, CALICO SYSTEM (CALICO fucking SYSTEM!!!)

All of those shows are good, go support our local bands; Atherton, Ruckspin, and Mean Girls!
