The Lassies ♥

Hey all, a lot has happened so I will try to say everything.

Christmas was great, I spent it mostly with family. I got a new chastity ring, I love it. :)

New Years was great. First it sucked cause I had to work but I got off work at 11:30-ish and jetted home....wait not home, my bad. Called Sammi and Sammi's mom picked me and John up from work. We got back to their house at like 11:50, ran inside, got in our pj's, ran outside just in time to have a silly-string war and blast fireworks. As we sang Auld Lang Syne, Luke aimed his fireworks too low and they went straight into the neighbors house. Swell job Luke. 

After that we went and put on the Celtic Thunder DVD. And then, a new legion (I need a better word, where's my dictionary?) was born. The Lassies. We all fell in love with Celtic Thunder and are constantly talking about our CT inside jokes. It's so fun. I love us.

Our Epic Win is on Facebook you can find it.

Who thought my one second favorite band would make my ears bleed?!

Hey guys, a lot of stuff has happened since I last blogged, so I'll summarize.

Relient K concert with Karen: AWE. SOME. NESS. It was amazing. We got to meet House of Heroes (my new 3rd fav band) they're so cool. And of course, we met Matty T. That was so cool. I got my RT picture. :)

Twilight: Yes I saw Twilight and I liked it, a lot more than I thought I would.

Work Party: Meh it was....meh. I had a good time I guess with Sammi and John but overall it was just okay.

Okay yeah. Tomorrow is the last show choir/signing practice till the concert! :O And the play I'm in, "A Rented Christmas," the performance is tomorrow! :O How's that for a busy weekend?

As for the title, Family Force 5 released a new video for their song "Radiator" recently. Now you have to understand, their CD "Business Up Front, Party in the Back" was my addiction for something crazy like 4 months. I listened to NOTHING ELSE. So naturally, I took the decision to step back from their music because of my addiction. So naturally when they released a new music video, I was curious and watched it. Now as far as the video was concerned, it was cheesy in every sense of the word. Neon lights, rising up from the floor in green smoke, the whole shabang. The music however, was ear-bleedingly awful. I was shocked, cause I had loved these guys. This song, (I can't say the same for the rest of their new album "Dance or Die" cause I haven't heard it yet) was seriously terrible. I couldn't hardly stand it.

So yeah I'm sad.

The state of confusion (aka New Jersey)

Hey guys, I haven't blogged in a while.

So yeah, you may have heard something like I won tickets to see Switchfoot on the Music Builds Tour, and yes, the rumors are true. Let me explain,...

Jesus Freak Hideout (www.jesusfreakhideout.com) currently has a contest up where they are giving away two free tickets for everyone of the remaining "Music Buids Tour" dates. So I entered the contest for the New Jersey date, thinking, "Oh yeah. I probably won't win. If I do, I'll find a way to get there." blah blah blah

Okay long story short, I won. I freaked out. And by some miracle, my dad agreed to drive me to New Jersey. I was sooooo excited, that is, until we got lost.

New Jersey has the smallest little street signs and a 5-way intersection like every two miles. We got so lost, I was freaking out to my mom on my cell and I was unsure at one point that we were gonna find this place period. Thankfully, I saw a small sign no bigger than one foot long that said "Box Office" and it pointed right. If I hadn't saw that, we probably would've missed part of the show.

We picked up our tickets at the Will-Call window, and to my surprise, we had seats inside the ampitheatre. This place was a lot like SPAC except smaller. It was a great view. We were right in the middle and everything.

As I went to the merch table, I saw something unusual. All this merch for the band "Red." And I'm thinking, "Weird. Red's not on the Music Builds Tour." Turns out, they were doing the pre-show, and my advice, DONT SEE THEM LIVE. EVER. Unless you're into screamo. It was awful. I held my ears.

Jars of Clay was, meh, decent. I'm not really a big JOC fan. Robert Randolph, incredible. In the middle of their set, everyone in their band got up and switched instruments. And all played with the same quality! They were soooo awesome!

Then the main event, for me anyway, Switchfoot. I swear, 80% of the crowd was just there for Switchfoot. A lot of people got up and left after their set. I felt bad for Third Day.

Switchfoot was beyond incredible live. This was their setlist:

Stars
Oh! Gravity
Crazy in Love/Gone
This Is Your life
American Dream
We Are One Tonight/ Shadow Proves the Sunshine
On Fire
Awakening
Dare You to Move
Meant to Live
(thanks www.landofbrokenhearts.com)

The ones where there's a slash means it's a mashup (in and out of both songs). It was so great, but wayyy too short. I mean come on, 10 songs?! Sheesh.

Third Day was up next, and I gotta say, I was pleasantly surprised. They put on a REALLY great show. Mac Powell was sooo funny too.

But anyway, I suppose the point of this blog is, don't go to New Jersey. Ever. It's not a very nice place.

Leona Lewis is....emo?!

Hey guys, haven't updated in forever. Yeah, but that's the way it normally is, huh?

School has started again, ugh. I have a World Literature Test to finish from last year, double ugh. Goodbye to Summer 2008. It was awesome, amazing, spifftacular (my new word, you like?), etc.

I went to Great Escape with the Snoopians. Well, actually, a lot of the Snoopians couldn't come, so it was just me, Becka, Jenson, Luke, John, Hannah, Sam L., and Lydia. It was still a wicked good time though. I conquered my fear of rollercoasters. Never knew I had a fear of rollercoasters? Well, I'll tell you the story...

*flash back mode* jk

When I was 8, I went on a rollercoaster at Worlds of Fun called The Orient Express *thunder*. I remember being so excited I was finally 48 inches tall and I could ride it. Long story short, it traumatized me for life.

*back to real life*

So John was like "Come on! You have to conquer your fears! Once you go on one, you'll love it, then you'll wanna go on another, and another,...." I was like "Yeah right." I figured I'd go on the Comet to say I conquered my fear and that was it. No Steaming....Donut, No Boomerang, and absolutely NO TORNADO! That was one ride I looked at pictures of and was like No way.

Long story short, heres my ride tally:

Comet: 3 times
Steaming...Donut: 2 times
Boomerang: 2 times
Mega Wedgie: 1 time (it was dumb)
Tornado:.....7 TIMES

Yeah the one ride I said I wouldn't go on I went on 7 times. Who knew, John was right.

Oh yeah, and the reason for the title of this blog. While Sam and Lydia were in the bathroom, "Bleeding Love" came on, and John started mocking singing it while pretending to cut his wrists. It was really funny.

Yeah well, a lot more happened, but it would take waaaay too much space to list it all.

Wow I think I'm getting lazy...

Here I am again, after 3 very short months of summer vacation, I'm back at school, er home.
Algebra II is still no picnic but in the least bit, or maybe in a subtle sense, I'm almost enjoying it. Maybe this is something one of my smart friends have rubbed off on me. If so, thank you. It is helping me survive math.

Snoopy!!! is still over and to be honest, I thought I'd be over it by now. Everytime a song off the Snoopy!!! soundtrack comes up on my iPod, I almost cry. It's so sad. And yes I do have musical songs on my iPod. There is nothing wrong with that.

Tomorrow is the eventful Great Escape day, and I *deep breath* am going on a rollercoaster. I have very afraid of rollercoasters ever since I first went on one I was 7 (or 8 I don't remember) and it traumatized me. John called me the other day and was like "Come on, it's TOO MUCH FUNN! You HAVE to go on a rollercoaster!" So if all else fails, he'll probably make me. Him, Luke and Jenson. Yes don't you feel sorry for me now.

I really like that ship that swings back and forth. I love the rush you feel as you surge down toward the ground if you're on the VERY end of the boat you're practically hanging upside-down! And yet I hate rollercoasters. Go Figure!

Lots of stuff...wow

HEY PEEPS! I'm finally back from ATC. Since it would take an entire novel to tell all that happened, I will summerize it in three songs.

Track 1: Awakening - Switchfoot

Track 2: Baptize My Mind - Jon Foreman

Track 3: Burn Out Bright - Switchfoot

Go listen to those three songs and you'll be pretty much informed. :)

Another thing, offering works. Period. I have proof. Here's my story.

I started giving a bunch of offering at ATC and I was like, "Okay I'm gonna believe for God to bless me." So what did he do?

Get me lots of money? Nope.

Get me a ticket to Soulfest? Not exactly.

He put in the mind of Relient K's tour manager to say, "Yeah you should go to Albany, NY on your tour."

So yeah, Relient K is coming here. I bought tix last night. I'm mad excited. For deets if you wanna go with me, ask about it! I will email you deets.

Btw, if you're under 16 you can't go. :(
Sorry, Northern Lights rules.
