I'm moving out in 10 days. Only ten days. Damn.
I did it again: I forgot to write. But that's only because nobody is ever active on Virb, so... No motivation I guess. I'll put in some pictures to display what I went through during this past month, because I'm too lazy to describe it all in words.
On second thought, it's probably for the best that nobody talks on here. I can be more private this way...
:)
DAMN IT VIRB! I'm gonna protest right now. If you don't get an option here in this very text box that lets you download pictures straight off your computer, then I'm canceling my account! Damnit!
Not to be mean or anything...

I got my first tattoo finally yesterday whilst at Milwaukee's Pridefest. Starship was there and I spontaneously decided to get a tattoo. My original plan was to save up 400+ dollars and get the Lord of the Rings tree on my back, but that won't happen for a while, so I decided I couldn't wait and wanted to get something small to start off. Only $60 instead of $400 as well. :]
So here it is, my sexy and scandalous first tattoo.

Which by far outshines any live performance I've seen so far in my young life.
But I'm serious. Add this to your list of things to do before you die: see the Crystal Method Live in concert. It is 2:00 AM and I can't sleep worth a shit. My ears are ringing and my heart is still pumping with that bass-thumping beat that they pulled tonight. These guys can rock.

For those of you who don't know who the Crystal Method is, they are a Grammy-Nominated electronic music duo formed in Los Angeles. The best part of their music is the fact that it's not only techno, but is also influenced greatly by Hip-Hop and straight up Rock 'n Roll. They love us here in the little-known city of Milwaukee. This was their seventh trip to the Rave. Their light show and the jumping and the glowstringing and even the drug-induced dancing was OFF THE WALL.

Seriously. One of the top-ten greatest things I've experienced in my life.
Beautiful and Intense. Go see them live.

Went to a Yeah Yeah Yeahs concert last night at the Rave's Eagles Ballroom in Milwaukee. They are FANTASTIC. Karen O's voice is fucking intoxicating. Her style is slamming, too. She wore this crazy neon african patterned poncho. This concert was so great.
Unfortunately, I felt really sick and only got to mosh during "Zero", "Dull Life", and "Gold Lion"
Ugh, I'm pissed at myself. I missed the middle for "Pin" and "Heads Will Roll"
Let me just say though, the moshpit for "Zero" was a highlight of my life. Woooooooooooo :] Fun stuff.

Fuck, I'd go lesbian for that girl.

Well, well, well. With it being Graduating season and everything and seeing as I am, in fact, graduating, I've begun to expect many lovely presents.


That's right y'all. I ordered my 15" MacBook Pro yesterday. Also, they have a deal if you're a college kid: After the rebate, I get the 120g iPod Classic. For only twenty bucks.
How kickass is this? It's all due to my favorite person in the world: My grandma, who contributed $1500 of it. I love you Granny!!!

I used to think friends mattered. But then I discovered that I don't have any true friends. I can't wait for College.
I'm just so sick of this. I need to get out of here. I keep dreaming of a year from now, when I have my own place with a bunch of people that I love and respect.
...and we can have a graffiti party for my kitchen table! Like these people!
I cry seeing people living the life I want to live. But I will soon, just gotta have patience. But that's difficult.
Also, living in the "Just Dance" video wouldn't be bad

One of my favorite artists of all time. He's Polish and he draws these amazing posters. Unfortunately, he died this past February. But my relatives from Chicago have his posters in their bar downstairs. They are trying to get me to do a Franciszek Starowieyski-inspired painting on a bit of their wall, but that sounds intimidating. :] lol. I'll put pics of their place later. Until then, check out his work. It's insane.


So in case anybody cared to notice, in a month it will have been an entire year since I've been on Virb. This is for real though, this time. I AM BACK.
and things have changed...
Like you wouldn't belive.

"We all admire the spangled acrobat with classical grace meticulously walking his tight rope in the talcum light; but how much rarer art there is in the sagging rope expert wearing scarecrow clothes and impersonating a grotesque drunk! I should know."
Thank you for your friendship! Musical greetings from Munich/Germany!
