Get in my head.

Sunday?

So I’ve been slacking with my blogging, but it doesn’t really matter.  I keep this thing pretty private.  Anyway lately my past week has been soo busy.  I worked every weekday except for friday and even though it’s not that hard it’s pretty exhausting.  And the fact that even if I work 3 hours from 2-5 I’m pretty much fucked about skating because no one goes out later anyway really.  But yeah I’ve seriously been so swamped like take Monday for example I went to school, went home for about 10 minutes, then went straight to work til 5.  After that headed straight to Jazz Band til about 7:15.  I mean after that I didn’t have anything but still I like coming home and being able to go out.  Even this weekend besides sleeping in my bed Friday night I spent about 5 hours at my house.  By the way this weekend was planned out to the LAST minute and although now that I think of it it was very productive it was just very strenuous too.  Friday after school we hungout for like an hour and headed to Jersey for a show.  Then hung there for the night and played and got home around 12.  Pretty much went straight to sleep and woke up the next morning around 10.  Hadda get ready in about 30 minutes to go to a photoshoot at Pauls which was pretty swell.  Then legit skated as fast as I could to the train station to go to the city to skate.  After skating there I went to right to Jamie’s which is uhh I’ll explain later.  Today I woke up at Jamie’s and rushed yet again to the train to get to work at 12.  After coming home again I hadda go straight to grandparents.

Maybe all of this is good for me since before getting a job and getting back into skating I didn’t have much to do during school, especially when Jamie left.  I mean the reality is in less than 3 days I played a show in jersey, had a successful photoshoot, skated the city, spent time with jamie, worked for a little and hung with my family.  Sounds really good for me but I don’t know I’m just not used to it.  I like coming home from school and just bumming around and even know I’d totally be out skating everyday for fun.  But whatever I do need money and once I have a set schedule I’ll probably have some days during the week off.  And once I get my first my paycheck I’m sure I’ll enjoy it even better, but until then I’m not sure I guess I’ll just stick it through.

I would talk about Jamie, but that’d make me more upset than I already am.  I’m going to fix things, I will be better.  Right now I can’t imagine not talking to her for a whole week.  Even if I am seeing her saturday today was hard enough that my phone vibrations weren’t from her.  It was even worse knowing they were twitter updates from her.  That’s enough for now.

end of summer

Shittt yep so school starts tomorrow. Funny I’ve probably done the most this summer than any other summer in my life yet it feels like the shortest.  But now that I think of it, Warped Tour and the first two week tour we went on seems like so long ago.  I’m not sure.  I guess it’s that when I finally got home from the August tour I felt like that was when Summer was supposed to start.  Every past year summer used to be hanging out, skating whenever, working for my dad and not really doing much.  Although it doesn’t sound like much, it was relaxing for me and skating with friends everyday kept me happy.  Instead the majority of my summer consisted of:  sitting in a hot van while we drive for hours and hours, playing shitty and good shows, not showering for days, sleeping in an uncomfortable van, and being stuck with the same 5 dudes everyday.  Not that tour wasn’t fucking amazing and the most fun I’ve ever had.. it’s just a different term than “Summer.”  It’s not really relaxing and there is a lot of work that goes into it.  It just kinda sucks missing out on the not really doing anything part of summer.  But no doubt this has been the greatest summer I’ve experienced.  It’s weird to think I only spent more than half of it away from home but it’s also surreal to think of all the places I’ve visited.  Not to mention playing Warped Tour this year.  Tons of things I never thought I’d experience at the age of 16.  I love being young and doing all of these things.  It gives me some reassurance to know that dudes that are 6 years older than me are playing the same shows I am, so I got a looot of time on my hands to get to the next level.  I’m in no rush but I guess it doesn’t apply for the rest of my band who are way older.

So senior year starts tomorrow.  I’m not really bummed about having to go back to school, more so the little things that summer has to offer.  Sleeping late and doing what I feel like most of the time, but I guess that relates back to the whole tour experience and how I didn’t really get to go through that aspect this summer.  Hopefully I’ll get used to it though.  I’m stoked that my schedule is fairly easy with AP calc being my only hard class.  I’m also excited that I got a sweet video camera so hopefully that can keep me occupied throughout the year.

I’ll also try to keep up to date with this thing cuz I never do

tours over..

..fuck.  So yeah it’s finally over and it’s been so much fun.  I’m stoked to be home but I know in a few days I’ll wish we were back on the ride.  until next time road<3

We’re in the van right now and have 6 hours til we get to Louisiana.. fuck. Plus we’re losing a lotta money. Fuck again.

Sweet.

Okay so right now I’m sitting in a huge hotel room in Orlando, Florida…no we didn’t pay for it.  For those who don’t know Rob and Joeys parents came down to Florida while we were here so we’re hanging with them for a few days and they’re paying for a hotel..awesome.  Also for those who saw me on LI recently and thought I was supposed to be on tour, I had to work and since the rest of 24 were following warped to florida and not playing shows my parents made me fly down to Florida so I’d be home longer.  Sucks not being there helping my band at Warped and flying alone sucked as well.  But it’s okay now since we’re all back together and so far Florida is awesome.  Right now me and Andre are chilling in the room, Paul, Joey and Joey’s family are at some park because they actually have money unlike me, and Rob and Tom picked up our new trailer!  So stoked for that now.  Before we left we bought a trailer and as soon as we get down here we find out Rob’s uncle has a free trailer for us haha.  Soo yeah any bands looking for a trailer we got one that we’re selling. But yeah previously it sucked having 7 dudes + all of our equipment in our van and now we only have 6 and all our equipment will be in the trailer.  It’s kinda weird that I’m not gunna be back until August 28th, that’s sooo far from now!  I’m extremely excited to go see states like Texas and California but I will miss Long Island.  Funny how we do actually have weird accents (for those who don’t think so…you’ll notice it if you go outta state).  Yesterday we opened up our first bank account and I got a sweet debit card!  We’re practically becoming a real band now!  I also copped a video camera before I left so now I’ll be making sweet update videos whenever I get the chance.  I’m going to go continue doing nothing, I’ll keep updating this thing when I can.

It’s hot as balls in Florida,but I love it. The flight down here was alright, better than I expected.Im just so excited to meet up w s24

heyyy iruv jamie

day … 4

So I haven’t updated in this in a while.  I’m sitting in a mall in new hampshire that I’ve been at for over 8+ hours over the past two days..it sucks.  Today we have a show after after two fuckin’ off days, well we played an acoustic set yesterday but I didn’t do shit.  Tonight we’re playing at Ground Zero and hopefully it’ll be good or I’ll be hella pissed.  Tomorrow we’re playing a house show in Vermont and that could potentially be really good.

first day? kinda?

Alright so day one of tour?  In a way.  Today we had two shows in two different states and both went quite swell.  Started the day off with Tom and Jay driving the van to Jersey while me paul and rob were at the high school graduation.  After that us 3 bounced outta there and drove pauls car to the venue in Jersey.  We played at the Paramus VFW and the place was pretty cool.  An average VFW with no stage with bands set up on either side of the room.  We played @ 3:30 which was kinda early but we were lucky enough to be on the show.  We had about 15 people for us which is actually pretty good for an out of state show.  Played 3 of the new songs and people seemed into it so it was cool.  Sold about 25 dollars of merch I think which just went into our gas tank to get to CT.  We left around 6 in order to get to Connecticut to play at the Trackside Teen Center.  Stopped off at white castle to get some long awaited food and then after getting stuck in traffic we made it there around 8:45.  Our set was at 9:45 so we pretty much set up, chilled for a little then played.  The place was awesome with a very friendly atmosphere.  Also met up with friends with made the other night in the band Way Anchor so it was a good time overall.  Sold some more merch and got some gas money which was cool.  twerddd

Tomorrows our big EP release at Highline Ballroom and I’m suppper excited for it.  I’ve never been to the place but I’ve heard its huge so I guarantee an awesome show :)  Doors open @ 4 and we go on at 6 so yes please come hangout. pa pa pplease.
