maybe one day you will understand

so i think i might delete this blog soon. i haven't posted in a super long time, and i recently made a tumblr. (which you can find here: http://sunshineing.tumblr.com/ )

no offense blogger. its been great.

take the chapstick, put it on your lips

wow, i haven't posted in a while.

so last month i was really excited for a vampire weekend concert (with beach house and dum dum girls). i had been looking forward to it for months, and so me and jee young got there five hours early to be front row. it was awesome, until they had someone come out and tell us vampire weekend would not be performing because of an illness. i was pissed off, especially because they made us wait over an hour after beach house finished.

but, i exchanged my ticket for a makeup show which was last wednesday. we got there super early again to be front row, and we met a lot of the people who were next to us in line at the cancelled show, which was cool. vampire weekend didn't disappoint this time though. they played every single song from both albums(!) and i even got a guitar pick!!

all the chocolates in your pockets are gonna melt

on friday i went to a really awesome concert with my brother and my friend jee young, and it was free! we saw brite futures (formerly natalie portman's shaved head), which is one of my favorite bands. and we were lucky enough to meet them both before and after the concert! it was such a fun concert and we were in the front row the whole time. definitely one of the best nights ever.

any day now

sometimes i really hate memories, and how easily they come back. these little triggers are everywhere, things that remind me of a time or a place, or a person. sure i was happy then, but i just want to forget everything now. i mean every time i see a silver honda i flinch, because i think its nicks car. every time.

summer has been rather nice though. mostly i have just been hanging out at home with my brother, or doing stuff with friends. i love the freedom of being able to do whatever, or nothing at all. like right now i am eating starbursts. i can still feel the burden of school though, waiting, just about to come around the corner. i feel like this is going to be my toughest year yet. especially since this is my last year of high school, and i will have so much work with college applications. i already feel behind, ha.

the other day my dad was counting all of the concerts i'm going to this month. its was five i think? i'm really excited.

i have dreams of orca whales

do you have a favorite place?

mine is lopez island. its where i have gone every summer of my life. i just spent a week there and it was so nice. its really relaxing there, everybody is so friendly and laid back. people always wave to each other when they drive by, say hello and how are you on the beach, and smile to strangers. the town is so small, and the island feels so rural. i think there are more sheep than people. the quietness and the feel of being away from everything is actually one of the main reasons that i like going there. we stay in this little cabin that doesn't have tv, although we do watch lots of movies, and i get horrible cell reception which means pretty much no texting, haha. i would love to live there someday.

i cannot guess what we'll discover

eclipse comes out next week! i am actually really excited to see it. i was watching tv last night, and the actors were being interviewed. so i admit that i enjoy twilight, even though bella is (a little) annoying. i don't know what is better, the books or movies, but i just like the movies because both rob pattinson and taylor lautner are hot, haha. i guess i would have to say i am team both.

we can stick around and see this night through

i was supposed to hang out with nick today, but i highly doubt it will actually happen. he takes forever to reply to texts. but its allllriiiiight.

so today me and my brother were cleaning and getting rid of old toys. we are going to give a huge box of legos a kid down the street. he is super into legos, and we don't really play with them anymore. we couldn't get rid of all of them though, there are just too many good memories haha. almost everyday we played with those things, and built houses and whatnot. good times.

story time. on the last day of school me and my friends went and saw toy story 3, and it was really good! i actually really enjoyed it, and such a good ending (almost cried haha, so sad!). but anyways, i had never liked toy story as a kid because it was so scary. like the kid who blows toys up? yeah that really freaked me out. also, at the movie i sat next to this really cute french guy named etienne. he is staying with my friend alison, and there is another french guy named charles, but etienne is way cuter. and i got to sit next to him at the movie! he can understand english, you just have to talk slowly. he was asking me questions and talking with this adorable accent. i will have to hang out with alison soon to see him! haha.

anyways. news. NPSH (natalie portman's shaved head) changed their name to Brite Futures! i was very upset when i heard this. because NPSH is such a good name, and how could you change that?? but its okay because they are still the same, just new name.
