think before you speak April 18, 2009

i went to my my friend catherine’s house yesterday for a random get together. i had fun. we played manhunt, girls vs boys in her yard. the kid i had argued with about the lip ring joke was there. at first i ignored him but then during the fourth round of the game he got really mad cuz he overheard the girls talking about him. he was in his car ready to leave when my friend went over to stop him because she felt bad. i didnt have anywhere else to go so i decided to go with her. we all talked and i decided i couldnt keep this grudge forever so i told him how i felt about what he had said. we talked for about 15 minutes sorting out our differences and finally made up. the main thing i reminded him was to think about what he wants to say before he says it. that could have really prevented this whole thing, but then again we all learn from our mistakes. i know he deffinatly learned from this and im glad that he took in what i had told him. after talking, i played patty cake with catherines boyfriend and she banished us to her kitchen. i dont really know why but whatever. we talked to her mom about random stuff and her boyfriend drank some orange soda. then we escaped and went back outside.

i got home last night and stayed on the computer from 11:30pm till 2 am talking to my sister who is at school in boston. we didnt really feel like going to bed so we didnt. we talked about a bunch of stuff until i finally got tired and left the computer.

today my mother wanted to go around and post up fliers for the benefit concert im hosting. i started it for a religion class project for my school. i have never done anything like this before so i didnt really know what to do or how to even get a band. having a band would help a little. i ended up going to myspace and just finding a bunch of bands from connecticut and emailing them to see who would email back. a few bands replied saying they couldnt play it, but then one band called Light The City replied and said that they could play. that was a very exciting moment in my life. so i started talking with one of the band members on the phone to get stuff all sorted out about where it was and such. then a few days ago i talked to him and he said that two of the members might not be able to play. i called back today and he said that they wouldnt be able to play, but he’d talk to one of the guys. that was terrible news. i didnt really know what to do because i had already started advertising and i couldnt call it off. i started getting worried about what would happen if they wouldnt be able to come, when my phone rang. i answered it and heard the wonderful news, “he can play the show.” WOO i think i thanked him about five times. then i was able to go and post up fliers around town. i hope a lot of people come. im kind of worried that not a lot of people will show up.
