i need direction to perfection



today has been a pretty okay day.
i have spent most of the time that i have been home, outside reading and taking pictures. the book is called The Perks of Being a Wallflower and its by Stephan Chbosky. and i have no idea how to pronounce that guys name. anyway, its a really good book, but i haven't finished it, so don't spoil it for me! oh and the book on top of it in the picture is A Separate Peace, which I'm required to read for english. its funny because they mention it in the wallflower book.
its kinda weird i know, but the picture where I'm holding the book up, reminds me of bibles for some reason. i don't know the picture looks all spiritual, but that's not the reason i took it. it was just after i figured out that the book could prevent the sun from getting in my eyes. it was actually really warm out in my backyard today, not to mention bright. but then i went and got sunglasses.
oh and i just realized that today is the last day of april. this month seems to have gone by really fast. well actually this whole year has gone by pretty fast. i guess its always that when you are in the middle of something, its like time is so slow, but looking back it happened so fast. wow, i guess I'm in a really pensive mood today.
anyways, i think i will go finish this book now, not the one required for english of course, haha. I'll let you know how it is.

the emotion it was electric, and the stars they all aligned


yay! new converse!

so these were a birthday present form my dad and my brother. funny story. my birthday was three weeks ago, which was when they ordered the shoes. and they came five days later, but two sizes too small, so they had to be resent. then they came again, and they were two sizes too big. and now i have the right size, which is good haha.

anyways, so far this week has been a really good week. we will have to see what the rest of the week has in store

cause i don't shine if you don't shine





so tonight me and my family went on this walk around the neighborhood. and so i took pictures, like always haha.

i feel like this has been a really long week. its been a tough week. but i hope its all for the best. and maybe next week will be better.

i got soul, but i'm not a soldier



the other day i went to the killers concert with my friends jee young and brian. it was insane. we had alot of fun together.
it was general admission, so we got there at 4 to wait in line. it was i long time to wait, we ate a hot dog, we stood around, played the guessing game, took some pictures. i wonder what brian thought of having to hang out with me and jee young.
when it was finally 6:30 we got to go inside. it was rather funny because you weren't allowed to take cameras inside, so jee young had to hide our cameras in her shoes.
we got inside and did some more waiting before even the opening band came out. but we were up in the front, in the center, and we were excited. and this waiting gave us the chance to meet all the people around us. the guys next to us were really funny and nice. i think one of them was named anthony. anyways they would talk to us and they gave us glow sticks. oh and you know how someone will tap you on the shoulder and you look the other way? he kept doing that to me and i fell for it every time, it was funny. then the opener band finally came out, they were called wild light. and well, they weren't that good. the best part was the drummer.
oh and with all that waiting, everybody was super thirsty. the security guards that were in front would sell us water. brian got a half drunken bottle of gatorade for four dollars, funny. then later brian payed five dollars for a bottle of water, and we all shared it.
we had to wait even more before the killers came out, and everybody started going crazy. everybody was pushing up against us. and then the killers came out, insane. it was so exciting and being up in the front, we were so close. but there were so many people who would shove up against you and push you back. i don't get claustrophobic, but i felt almost like i couldn't breathe. we tried to have fun, but we were in the middle of the mosh pit. we were up there for four songs i think, but we couldn't really enjoy it, so me and jee young got out.
we spent the rest of the concert in the back, where you couldn't really see as well, but it was okay. it was funny because in the back alot of the people were old. they would nod their heads as if saying 'this is a good song' and me and jee young would be jumping up and down screaming next to them. even for being in the back it was fun. jee young took some great pictures. we sang to every song, and i lost my voice. we were so excited when they played when you were young as the last song, but sad that it was over.
we found brian and his sister (she was really nice) and we went home.
i hope brian had fun. I'm not sure what he thought of hanging out with me and jee young.
jee young slept over at my house and the next day we went to school. we were tired. even though no one wanted to hear all about it, we had fun.
me and jee young still haven't stopped listening to the killers. we want to go to more concerts together, maybe we will take brian.
i don't have that many pictures, but jee young took some good ones.
and we have the memories.

well it must be a sign, that my heart is my own design


these are probably my most favorite pair of shoes ever
i have had them for almost 4 years now, and holes are beginning to form, but they have lasted
and seriously, who doesn't love a pair of converse?
