November Rain

1:49pm: i'm in love with my car
:) :) I got a car :) :). my parents picked it up for me yesterday afternoon so when i got home from the drill it was sitting there in the driveway! (the drill went well btw, i didn't pass out or anything HA and then i saw kate at the creamery HI KATE!! even though she didn't give us free ice cream even though i think she should have just b/c nick and matt were flirting with her). anyway. its a blue '96 mercury sable. and i loove it. and three people can sit in the front = super! plus the cup holders are awesome and work very well. and i looooove it! (too bad i just realized i said that like two sentances ago). hmm. so thats the big news. since last night i've driven 50 miles in it. is that excessive? i took it to the mall to get an iPod fm transmitter so i can listen to my iPod in the car :). and i took it to CVS early this morning so i could get it a first aid kit cuz i feel like i should have one (OH YEAH. I put my Star of Life sticker on the back and it made me soo happy to be able to do that :)). and at CVS i got a six pack of gatorade and snickers power bars to keep in the glove compartment. cuz here's my plan- i can drink the gatorade on the way to calls so i never faint again. cuz that was STUPID last time. anyway i'm gonna go to loris and show her Keef. OH. by the way (cough-morgan-cough). this car's name is Keef. cuz it's old, and it's a little banged up. like Keef. but i mean only the most respect by it. this name = not open to discussion cuz it's a good name. :) :) :) J'AIME BIEN MA VOITURE!

3:58pm: So It Goes
I'm unreasonably bored and tired but look morgan i'm updating!! there's not too much going on. i quit at greenwoods which is awesome cuz even though i loved it there i was just getting all burnt out w/ everything. i guess the problem isn't not enough going on, but too much going on so i ignore the smaller things and feel like there's not a lot happening. i've really been questioning lately whether i'll make a good doctor or not. i get really excited whenever i think about eventually becoming one and being able to treat patients and it's something i've wanted passionately since like 6th grade. but what if it's one of those things that i just think i'll be good at and then it turns out i just can't? i don't even know where my talent, if i have any, lies. pretty much i'm feeling like i did in 8th grade when everyone had an identifying interest like "soccer" or "horses" or something and i didn't and i didn't even know where i fell. only i thought i'd gotten over that when i picked up guitar freshman year and started the MRT classes in 10th grade and the EMT classes this year. i just realized going to EMT class was probably like, what i looked forward to most this whole year on a consistent basis. and it's my favorite class i've even taken. like, i don't even have a favorite school subject because french has turned into hell now and my favorite class isn't even a class in school? so it goes. so what i guess i'm really worried about is just- what if i really have no talent and i'm just kidding myself and thinking i'm good at shit? what if i pass out again at the next fire call? or what if once i start riding on the ambulance i can't even remember CPR? Not that i really think that will be a problem but it's just those nagging little worries, you know? ii don't even know what i'm going on about here, i think its just those mid-week blues everyone gets probably. i'm like not as depressed as this makes me sound. cuz i'm still really excited about summer :). i might actually go sit out in the sun and listen to the Rolling Stones and nap or read Slaughterhouse Five or something. that'd be awesome. and i can do the rest of my homework when i freaking feel like it. hah! so sorry for this schizo entry. i promise i'm not usually like this. a bientot mes amours..

9:00pm: Velvet Revolver... ahhh...
Ummm I think I've had the crowning point of my musical life thus far. I saw Velvet Revolver on Saturday night and OHHH MY GOD were they good. ohhhh they were amazing. again i'm homesick for the concert. it was INCREDIBLE! they did pretty much most of contraband, and a song i think called Big Head, which i'm guessing will be their first single off their next CD (hopefully out before christmas:)), and they played It's So Easy and Mr. Brownstone!!! and they played Sex Type Thing, and during that one, Scott came up in the aisles and walked LITERALLY TWO FEET AWAY FROM US, I STOOD HONESTLY TWO FEET AWAY FROM SCOTT WEILAND and then he paused about 20 feet away from us and made a long impassioned speech that mrs meehan said only the druggies got but i totally got it too cuz he was just saying how like, Rock N' Roll is about the people, not about the companies and stuff. i LOVE him. he has probably one of the best stage presences i've ever seen, all skinny and writhing around onstage. when they did "Fall to Pieces", he came on in a short red CBGB&OMFUG shirt and leaned on the mic while he sang and he was smoking but it was still very cool. he is the ONLY man who could make that sexy. Slash, obviously, was amazing. near the end he put on his top hat, and he was wearing his top hat and just leather boots and pants and no shirt and playing his Les Paul and smoking and they played "Mr. Brownstone" and it was SO. COOL. it felt like it didn't matter if it was the late 80's or the mid 00's, because it was still incredible and his music will never STOP being incredible. i know that sounds heavy but honestly guys he's like my idol and hero all rolled into one and being so close to him and seeing him play LIVE and seeing him be so awesome about it was just the neatest thing ever. its like- aghh i'm not a writer so i cant even explain how happy it made me. suffice to say i'm really thrilled. AND SLASH USED EIGHT DIFFERENT GUITARS AT THAT CONCERT. i'm officially ridiculously jealous. they played "Wish You Were Here" too, and it was beautiful, so that was nice. what else is there to say? the entire band was great. congrats to them on a really great rock n' roll concert!
now for concert moments:
*"ahh... beautiful, beautiful new rochelle"
*"it's an orgy... an orgy of justice!"
*the slash impersonator
*"DON'T PISS IN THE BUSHES! THAT'S GROSS! EWWWW!"
*"ben's uncomfortable cuz we grabbed his breasts"
*"I DON'T WANT TO MISS HOOBASTANK!"
*"how here's some sexual innuendo for you... i wanna cum." "no... that's just straightforward. BAM. right out there"
*"so how many of you like a little band called Guns N' Roses?" "WOOOO!" "And how many of you like a little band called Stone Temple Pilots?" "WOOO!" "And how many of you like Journey?" "..wha..?" "yeah. journey. fuck Journey. (singing) ...just a lonely girl, living in a lonely world, took the midnight train going anywhere... HEY!!! for a bunch of people who said 'fuck Journey' there are a WHOLE lot of you singing along!"
*"Now this one is for all you trashy little New York girls out there..." "LORI! he means us!!!"
*hooray! maracas!
*"individually and collectively..."
*"are you going to cry?" "noooooo"
*thats all for now. lori if u remember more post them :).
anyway i gg do more homework now i think. SUPERB. <3

7:35pm: bridget jones's diary
So I've been in a really wierd mood lately. i don't even know why. actually, i think it's just that i'm stressed out about like, 20 different things. mostly, i've somehow overbooked myself and its like it's all just going to shit.. idk.
you know what i mean, though?
i've got, right now, four jobs. so u'd think i'd have all sorts of money, but all i've got is all sorts of hours. and i do need to make some money cuz i really need a car
and my boss at the restaurant yelled at me on friday cuz i was slow and in the kitchen too much and i should have been out front. all of which was probably true, but then my other boss there is telling me to go into the kitchen and clean the silverware and how can i be in the kitchen and out front at the same time?? so that made me think, how can i possibly believe i'll ever make it in the medical field if i'm too slow to work in a goddamn restaurant. i mean, ok, i've never seen an ER as CRAZY as a kitchen is, and my boss did apologize later, but still.
and i'm just no good at school work. and the past week i've been pretty much concentrating on my APs and not focusing at all on my other work which i know is terrible, so today i got a 62 on a math test! 62! it brought my grade down to, oh, 69. so my parents will LOVE it when the interim comes out next week. that'll be nice.
and just in case i have some time i might be able to spend doing fun stuff, i've joined the fire department and applied for the ambulance junior corps. and this is one of those situations where i'll want them to be my top priorities, and it will turn into "but school's your top priority bleh" and i'm so sick of that.
and i dont even know why i've been in such a depressing mood lately! its not all the time either, like some times i'll be really happy, like right now i'm really excited cuz i restrung my guitar and i'm going to see velvet revolver on saturday and i'm actually really happy about joining dodgingtown and everything... so i dont even know. it's like i'm bipolar... but i'm manic and depressive at the same time. so i don't even know what you call that. teenagerdom? only now i feel way to emo, so i have to go, idk, cry or listen to My Chemical Romance or something. and i have to tell you, i don't lack too much respect for them. yeah, who knew i liked them? but I'm Not Okay has really kind of grown on me. and i saw the video for Helena today. but dont worry its not like i really like them. its just fond memories of the green day concert. anyway, i'll feel all normal in a few days, i just needed to rant and i'm so sorry for the void of terriblism that is this entry!!

7:33pm: post scriptum
i just remembered, really quickly, eddie, you'd be pleased to hear billie joe sang "am i retarded or am i just overjoyed" rather than "unemployed" at this performance. :)

5:33pm: LOVE LOVE LOVE
i'm officially IN LOVE with Green Day. they concert last night was AMAZING. it was PERFECT. we didn't have the best seats but it was still incredible beyond belief... i feel homesick for the concert now.
plus, i give billie joe armstrong credit for packing all this into like 2 hours:
* good music
* pyrotechnics
* an amazing amount of energy
* making me unsure for a minute whether i was at a concert or a political rally and then realizing it didn't matter
* breaking out the water guns
* giving away a guitar
* faking (?) an orgasm on stage
* encouraging stage dives
* inciting the whole crowd to chant "YANKEES SUCK!"
* making my eyes tear up cuz it was too great

seriously. when he was introducing Holiday, he went "This song isn't anti-American... it's ANTI-FUCKING-WAR!" and the ENTIRE place went crazy and it was insane and i loved it loved it loved it.

and it was cool, because they didn't just do stuff from American Idiot- they did like, Longview, Basket Case, Hitching a Ride, Minority, King for a Day, Good Riddance... and Shout. and We are the Champions.
except it definitely went
"I've taken my bows
My curtain calls
You've given me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it
YANKEES SUCK!"
so that was ridiculously cool.

i was reminded of how 2005 it was when during "Wake me up When September Ends", everyone pulled out their cell phones instead of lighters. probably less hazardous, but MUCH less cool.

and i love Green Day.

and billie joe, tre, and mike still remain the most loveable adorable punks i can think of.

gotta go!

3:13pm: i <3 procrastination
so, spring break. i went to montreal! it was AWESOME and now i really want to go to mcgill. so i probably won't be accepted but that's alright. but you know, people tend to go SOUTH for spring break, where its WARM. by all rights i should have been in florida, getting a tan as people of norweigan and irish ancestory definitely tend to do, but instead i was wearing a sweatshirt and shivering in canada. it was wonderful though :).

i can't get my bright eyes cd to load onto my computer so i can't put it on my iPod. i finally got frustrated and just bought Road to Joy off iTunes, and you guys should too, cuz it's incredible.

while we're on the subject of music, does anybody have a copy of Finding Out True Love is Blind that I could borrow?

OH.
WHY WOULD I FORGET THIS.
I GOT MY LICENSE!!! hehehe!
i went for my first real solo drive a few days ago and it was sooo nice! i can't wait till i'm really comfortable driving though. and i should probably look into getting a car. hahaha.
my mom still isn't comfortable with me driving on the highway. when we went to westfarms mall, she didn't even want me to drive back. i can so tell this is going to be a huge problem in the future. by the way, westfarms mall is freaking huge. i definitely got lost on the way between lord and taylor and victorias secret. who knew you could truly lose your sense of direction in the mall?? (don't worry, my sense of direction is much better on the roads than in malls. and i can totally read subway maps. HA!)

i really need to do actual work now. like, history project- GAH-. go to the boys track meet to cover it for yearbook. fill out my insurance thing. fill out my dodgingtown application and actually remember to get it down to the firehouse- i will remember. mmm so that's it.
seriously though, if anyone wants to lend me a copy of that Finding Out True Love is Blind, that would be really great!!

11:13pm: Hmm
I got to leave work early today :) it was awesome. I'd been there for like, three hours, and I got to leave. HA!
so since it was like too late to feel like going out to do anything, i've just been playing my NEW GUITAR all night. ha ha ha. well, new to me. it's SOOO nice. i'm like in love with it. I think i'll name it Baby since thats what i call it anyway. Anyway, BB King has Lucille, SRV has Number One, why can't I have Baby? see?
being on break, also, is incredible. i think i'll sleep in tomorrow before my driving lesson. then i'll go shopping :) :) :). for entertainment for the car drive to montreal... i'm thinking Rolling Stone and maybe the Kings of Leon CD?
OH WAIT PAUSE EVERYTHING.
before Rolling Stone does a like, 11 page spread on these guys, I want to point out that I've seen a video on vh1 like once a few weeks ago and then yesterday, and that reminded me, these guys are going to be big in the same vien as the Killers and that crew. Louis XIV. they're kind of cool. LOUIS XIV. Remember, you heard it here. i'm not saying they're Guns N' Roses great, or that they'll be Aerosmith huge, but just that they'll be like, worth remarking on. remarkable. remember them.
i might just be bitter because I thought i was going to tell everyone about The Bucket before Kings of Leon got big, and then i forgot, and then Rolling Stone, i'm not even kidding, had a HUGE article about them and i felt so ripped off. even though they totally had an older cd it turns out i just didn't even know about cuz i'm an ignorant slut. haha.
ps does anyone have a lucky charm i could borow for tuesday, per chance? i'm worried the lucky guitar pick won't be enough, thanks to the hideous nightmare that was me finding out last thursday that my driving school had neglected to even sign me up for a test (THANKS GUYS YOU ROCK!!!). but that guitar pick is pretty lucky, apparently. its done its job a good 6 or 7 times. (pretty much any pick is lucky, as long as its a dunlop gator grip 1.14 mm, that's the turquoise one. and yeah, i know those are really probably supposed to be used as bass picks, if we're going to be really literal about it all).
so i'm gonna go now and watch a friends rerun cuz i'm freakin sweet that way.
oh, ok, if i were in friends, who would i be? i'd want to be like, girl chandler, but people say pheobe. (ahem fullman. "you WOULD be pheobe".)
so anyway, i'll be in canada for a few days starting tuesday :) my home and native land. but not really, just in like, spirit. and looking at mcgill. which i almost hope i dont fall in love with, cuz what if i do and then i can't get in? that would be really unfortunate. but so far it seems like, perfect. hmmm dilemma! and apparently theres really good shopping in montreal. so thats a plus. what a conundrum!!

Do you have the time
To listen to me whine?
About nothing and everything
all at once
I am one of the those
Melodramatic fools
Neurotic to the bone
No doubt about it

Sometimes I give myself the creeps
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me
It all keeps adding up
I think I'm cracking up
Am I just paranoid?

9:27pm: college?
so i just got back from teh college meeting thing and wow... stress a little? mmm. oh well, i fully plan on just enjoying montreal when i go see mcgill next week. the day after i actually test for my license.
oh yeah.
my school screwed up and didnt sign me up, so i went to kneplers instead and he was very nice and did sign me up. i <3 that man! only not really cuz... ew, creepy much? haha.
i LOVE it when things end up working out well!

"you can't write if you can't relate...
...my time is a piece of wax"

(em llik uoy t'nod yhw os ybab resol a m'I, rodedrep nu yoS)

8:56pm: one time i thought i had mono for an entire year. it turns out i was just really bored.
oh god i'm bored. i'm not even a little tempted to do my history homework (i know, i know, i'm a terrible person, but w/e, i'll do it later tonight). i hung out with my evb all afternoon which was awwwesome cuz we studied for our drivers tests and then we played guitar and sang. cuz we're going to go play and sing in public sometime soon (but i won't tell you where or when, cuz then u'll come see us, and we want to go one time first w/o people we know really well. haha.) but it was just really nice.
then we watched music videos online, and the video for Dirty Little Thing freaked her out, and who knew that i love love love that song by bright eyes? its called like, the First Day of my Life or something? it's so gorgeous!! also, the video for Sweet Child o' Mine is still inarguably excellent.
what was my point? did i honestly just write this to point out that i was bored? wow.
i really am though.
and i guess i should finish my homework. hmm.

if i could be anyone else right now, who would it be?

i really don't know/ all my heros seem to have kind of really great and then really terrible lives.
maybe joe perry. he always seems kind of cool.
or duff mckagan. you never think of him first, but he's really talented. plus he could kick ur ass at karate.
maybe marianne faithful back in her heyday? she was great. yeah, i'd be her.
or else i'd be someone who's 18, cuz then i could join the ambulance corps, because i've heard NOTHING about the junior corps getting started and i'm kind of getting a little sad about that.

8:06pm: spring forward
daylight savings time... did we lose an hour or gain an hour? cuz i'm still not really sure, but i'm definitely tired.
on the bright side tho, i can almost completely hear out of my right ear now :) so that saga's over with, enthralling though it was.
green day was on storytellers last night- i was really excited, and every few minutes i'd be going, "nate! get in here!! see that girl in the audience there? that'll be me in TWENTY SEVEN days!!!"
in other news, 5 days till i get my license! oh snap, clear the roads.

but really, the best thing ever, is my brother and i were looking at our old "books" from elementary school, and i found a collection of poems my second grade class wrote at the end of the year. I guess the assignment was to write about our feelings at the end of the year, cuz there are lots of references to like, "happy as a hippo" and "i am a joyful duck" and "sad as a fly" and "mad as a bear", etc.
apparently i was kind of melancholy in second grade? either that or just really happy with school and not too psyched for summer, cuz my poem was this:

DRAGON
I feel a dragon feeling.
It is burning in my heart.
Dragon. Mad.
Second grade is swallowed in
bubbling flames.
Burning down my fiery breath.
Dragon. Mad.

is that spooky, or what? haha.
but now i really have to do my history homework and latin homework, and study for anatomy, and maybe prepare for french a little, but probably not. echh.
Besides, its the Red Sox opening game and i'll probably just get wrapped up in that anyway!

2:09pm: gabba gabba hey!
I'm not doing too much right now... still. lol. i can't hear out of my right ear still! i'm starting to get a little concerned. but now i have an excuse for turning my amp up really loudly? so that's good. i have like, 50 countdowns going on in my head-
VELVET REVOLVER- 43 DAYS
GREEN DAY- 29 DAYS
LICENSE TEST- 7 DAYS
hahahaa! i'm way too excited to get my license. and a car. ohhh man.
as soon as i have my lisence, i totally know the first place i'm going to, too.
Borders. to get either a really good car CD (how's Permission to Land by the Darkness?) or Welcome to the Videos, if they have it, which i doubt. i've just decided that's what i really want to be watching now.
Look, its videos for:
-Welcome to the Jungle
-Sweet Child o' Mine
-Paradise City
-Patience
-Don't Cry
-Live and Let Die
-November Rain
-Yesterdays
-The Garden
-Dead Horse
-Garden of Eden
-Estranged
-Since I Don't Have You

and, so, alright, i've only seen like, 7 of those videos but they were really good!
but thats enough of that.
i have to get ready for work in like, 3 hours. till midnight! meh, could be worse. i could be working at like, a meat-packing plant or something. now THAT would be work to complain about. being vegetarian and all.
you know what? theres definitely something similar to caffeine in the decongestant i'm taking cuz i'm really jumpy and i havent even had too much coffee. its like one time this summer, i had 2 grande lattes in a row on an empty stomach cuz i was at starbucks doing my AP English reading cuz i'm cool like that, and later that day i was realllly jumpy to the point where i couldnt even hold a pick. so.. that wasn't good.
you know what's a surprisingly good movie, though? mean girls!
and a surprisingly funny countdown on vh1 (eddie i know u'll hate me for this)... 40 Hottest Rockstar Girlfriends and Wives. i promise you, the hour i watched was funny.
and my dearest aspiration is still to be on a vh1 panel show.

4:49pm: Decade?
Alright, I know I posted about literally 2 minutes ago, but I just had a question.

What decade would you have been the most suited to?

For me, I say its down to either the 60's or the 80's. If I lived in the 60's, there's no doubt I would have been a hippie, with all the tie dye and long hair and bellbottoms, plus i would have protested like, every weekend. On the other hand, if I lived in the 80's I would have been a creepy metal chick, so that could've had its plus sides too.

Post! I'm bored and I need more thoughts!

4:34pm: Nothing...
So not too much has been going on for me! Cause I lead an uneventful life, but thats for the best sometimes, I guess. I've been sick like all weekend, and it turns out I have a sinus infection and an ear infection. Truthfully, I was glad to hear it, because I can't hear out of my right ear and I was afraid the doctor was going to say it was because I was going deaf, and she'd forbid me to go see Green Day or Velvet Revolver (COUNTDOWN- 47 DAYS!!!). Lukcily, she just gave me a perscription and i left. When I came home I watched Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, and about 3 episodes of I Love the 80's Strikes back, cause I'm just that fun!! But seriously also cause I took some Nyquil. Why am I writing all this? No one really cares, unless they're on an avid search for an expert on 1980-1982. (That might now be me). Other big news? ...not really. I worked at the restaurant on friday, that was fun only i'm stil really bad at putting on table cloths!! whats wrong with me! lol. so now its off to study for an anatomy test that i dont really want to take tomorrow. only i still dont feel so well. ehhh.

4:28pm: Latin Girls' Night
Last night was the epic Latin Girls Night. So it was myself, Lori, Katie W and Katie F and it was amazing. See, we went to see Ms Congeniality 2, and the concession guy there looked like Axl Rose. He was really really adorable and really flattered when he heard our second great memorable quote of the night:

"Hey, did anyone ever tell you, you look just like Axl Rose?"

He even took off his hat to better show off his red hair!
For those of you wondering, the first really great memorable quote of the night was:

"QUAESTOR!"

for the full story on that, just trust me, you had to be there, and probably also have to be a latin chick to really dig it.

Care to hear other memorable quotes? Hope so, thats the rest of my post!

*"Touch my back." "OOH it's hot!"

*"Let's SKIP!"

*"Little boy shirts?!"

*"Pregnant with Swedish fish!"

*"Katie F does it again!"

*"Katie, you're hot!"

*"Causin' a ruckus at Wal-mart!"

*"WHAT PRISON?"

*Our away messages:
*Katie W's: Latin girls night at my house!
Togas anyone? no rufus ur not invited to latin girls night
katie rose - bring dormice lori - a wine subsitue katie fullman- a hot guy in a toga- no not Caesar.
*Auto response from november88rain: getting doormice to bring to latin girls night.HEEERE MOUSIE MOUSIE.mmmm saucy.

and many more, I just got tired of typing.

PS if anyone cares, heres lori's and mine transcripted convo during free period:
Lori: When you're a rock star I'll have the mob come kill you.
Crevi: NO! DON'T DO THAT! Have them kill my enemy!
Lori: Who's that?
Crevi: *pause* ...Buckethead.

61 DAYS TILL VR!

6:13pm: hmmm
So. The dance was last night and it was really pretty alright- who would've guessed? Plus, they definitely played Pour Some Sugar on Me and You Shook Me All Night Long. which was kind of amazing so i loved it! (Now I've got Hysteria playing on my iPod, though. oops.) And today I went and got a job as a busperson at a resturant so THAT led to me having to buy black pants, which was a chore but i got to go to the malll! and i had to get black shoes too. so anyway, i'm at the mall and i fall in LOVE with a pair of shoes, which is wierd, because i NEVER get really excited by shoes unless they're my sneakers which i'm very VERY protective of. but these had a teeny heel so they werent too tall and they were like, tweed (is that the word?) covered and they go perfectly with everything i wear. so i ask to see them in my size and THEY DIDN'T HAVE THEM. and the same thing happened in 3 other stores so that was sad for me. i'll get over it. on the bright side, i got a denim mini and i sewed a Velvet Revolver patch on the back pocket so its AWESOME and today i found a really pretty cami to wear with it so i CAN'T WAIT TILL SPRING, which i think was actually the point of this post in the back of my mind. but oh well, no one will care about my shopping update but me. but it WAS sweet. HA! oh no wait, my other point was i got a new job yayy! and also... the VR countdown today is... 63 days. OH SNAP!!
