Haha. Jesus

So, I'm a very happy, optimistic person. I've always thought this to be a plus. Apparently this gets on some people's nerves, and some people are just down-right offended by it.

I need to be more "serious". And by that, they want me to share their pathetic outlooks on life, and be dismal and solemn about everything with them. Fuck that.

Life is wonderful. There's love to be shared, friends to be made, andbeauty everywhere. So, why fret over ANYTHING?

I suppose I need these people though. Comfort in those who agree with us, growth in those who don't.

I'm just glad Shelby and the people closest to me aren't in the ranks of the downers and haters, haha.

But, that's it for now. Back to being bored, I suppose. My Gold account ran out. =/

Situation

Alright, I move in to the apartment August 1st. I will be living in Baytown at the Raintree apartments on Rollingbrook dr., right off of the highway.

Dad is paying half of the rent and our water bill. I will be attending San Jacinto, and he is going to give me a '97 Nissan Sentra that is in his driveway. No problems I know of, and he's paying the insurance on it.

I just need to get a job pretty quickly when we get all settled in, so that I can help pay rent, electricity, and my gas money so that I may get to San Jac when I have class, or when I want to go pick up Shelby or a friend or two.

Oh, Shelby. =D This relationship has been going wonderfully. I have very strong feelings for her is all I know. Our one month anniversary is on Thursday, and I plan to spend most of the day with her. But, things are getting more and more serious every day between us. I don't know if it has forever written on it at this point, and I refuse to think like that this early, but it looks like it'll be long-term if not. =) She makes me so very happy, and she has a good head on her shoulders. She knows what she wants, and won't flake out on me, that much I can tell.

It feels like everything is going in the right direction for me.

THE FUTURE IS HERE!

So, my dad is giving me a car, don't know what model and year yet, but he's paying for every bit of it. Also, he's going to pay for the rent on an apartment he wants me and my brother Paul to share, and possibly someone else.

So, it appears I will be moving out of my house soon! Hahahahaaaa! I'm so excited. I will have my own space to do as I please soon!

We still have a lot of details to work out about it all, but man, I'm so stoked.

The Black Keys - Tighten Up [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

Music!

I recently made my way to Best Buy with the intent to buy a vidja game for mah ecksbawcks, but when I passed through the cd's, I changed my mind.

I passed by Minus The Bear, which is a band my brother Paul had shown me, and I picked up three of their albums: their semi-self-titled album Menos El Oso, Planet of Ice, and their most recent album Omni. I also picked up Cage The Elephant's sefl-titled album, and that's pretty damn good as well.

However, the subject I'd like to get on is the album Omni. EVERYONE should listen to this album. It is an absolute treat from start to finish.

The lyrics on some of the songs are a little... sexual. I can't share this album with anyone from, say, my church, so that's why I've come to this medium to spread the word.

The music is... intoxicating, I suppose I could say. I'm in love.

Minus the Bear is amazing, and everyone should pick up their album Omni.

YOU THERE! OGRE!

Hahaha, maaaan, I just got home from the Thrice concert. My throat is torn up, my body aches, but I feel... Well, like myself. Amazing. Haha. ;)

The bands before them were all... unique... Not bad, but nothing I'm gonna listen to.

But then, Thrice comes on, and the crowd erupts as they play All the World is Mad. Everyone who knows the words are belting out the songs, people are moshing, and just putting out such positive energy. Thrice was amazing. I got to hear the Earth Will Shake and A Song For Milly Michaelson, my two favorite songs by them.

They mixed their heavy songs, and their softer songs together so well.

And I got to hold my girl all night long, and defend her from sweaty fat guys.

I fucking love Thrice.

Okay...

So, my time has been monopolized lately by Bioshock 2. The story is great and all, it's just that the game is soooo fucking hard on the hardest difficulty, and I refuse to play on anything less. So, I gave the multiplayer a spin.

OH. MY. GOD. It's not amazing or anything, it just suits me to a T. It's absolute chaos, and there are so many factors to your loadouts. The tonics allow you certain abilities, like doing more damage from melee attacks that are behind the enemy, plasmids add another dimension, and then you've got the vanilla weapons. You can also hack turrets and sabotage ammo dispensers so that when someone goes up to them it drops a grenade at their feet.

And then there's the Big Daddy suit, which turns one player into a tank, and it takes strategy(or not, depending upon how you play) to take these Big Daddy's down.

This game's multiplayer has me hooked. If you stray upon my blog, send me a friend request: Lawlacaust21 on Xbox Live.

Going to go hang out with Shelby before tomorrow now, as I promised her. I keep my promises. =)

July 5th

I am feeling amazing right now. Today was the day Lizzy was supposed to move in with me. She pulled her Houdini act, as everyone knows by now. I think the ultimate rebuttal for the actions she took is the fact that I've got Shelby. Maybe that's just me though.

Maybe I'll even spend the day with Shelby, we'll see later on today, after I get sleep and ask whenever I wake up. That would be even better.

I hope this day eats away at Lizzy, but then again, she may not even be aware of the weight that today should hold for her. If she's not, then good for her.

On another note, I get to see Thrice tomorrow! YEEEEAAAHHH! Haha. So, Tool and Thrice within like two weeks of each other... Amazing.

I also purchased 4 tickets earlier today to see Kings of Leon on September 22nd at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion. Daniel, his mother, Shelby and I are the attendees. Happy belated birthday, Daniel. Didn't feel like the blacklight poster was a true gift.

Anyways, time for me to go. Love ya, Blog
