Sweetness of the sun

"Looking at your picture from when we first met. You gave me a smile that I could never forget. And nothing I could do could protect me from you that night. Wrapped around your finger, always on my mind. The days would blend 'cause we stayed up all night. I just want you to know that I've been fighting to let you go. "


So this past weekend has been one of the dumbest and most boring weekends I have had so far this summer in Eau Claire. I worked at a softball tourny for the whole weekend sitting there doing nothing. I got paid for it and got a pretty nice tan but still it was boring. I worked from like 5-1030 on friday 1-1030 on sat. and then today I worked from 10-6. Whew it sucked.
Although I got a call from Erica who was throwing a party at her place Saturday night. Well Jared came and sang me a song he wrote about phillpe and then told me that he has a crush me. Which is weird, i've never had a guy just flat out say that. i think i might have a little crush on him to0. But I have been told that he's a player. I found out he was making out with a girl later that night after he called me, i might ask him about that. I really don't want to get my hopes up for something that isn't going to happen in the long run. It seems like that happens around here i my life these days, my hopes getting high then crashing down. I'm not one to go on the past and what others say, but I'll find out on my own, may even flat out ask. So that's the major confusion right now in my life. He also is coming to eau claire soon so i'll find out what's going on. hopefully the player thing isn't true. Off to bed i'm tired and sunburned

Summer oh how I love thee

"Life may not be the party we hoped for...but while we are here we might as well dance."~Unknown

So here are some things that my summer has been like over the month that I have had to enjoy it
*I come home from college to find out that I have mono. My spleen and liver were enlarged 4 1/2 inches and 6 inches respectively. Wasn't cool because it meant for me no more partying and no more late nights. A strict 10 pm curfew instilled on me. I have yet to get that curfew off. It sucks.
*The Tuesday night budget and buffalo wild wings tradition is back and awesome. I've seen some really cute movies so far, Hitch, Fever Pitch, Robots, and Sahara.
*I have already had the chance to go up and visit with all the GB crew at Erica's 19th birthday party. It was a fun time on the lake for 3 days. So much fun that I got 2nd degree burns on my shoulders and tan everywhere else. I currently am peeling like a snake.
*Being serenaded by Jared trying to sing me to sleep, one of the sweetest things anyone has ever done for me.
*Erica and Steve and the whole teclaw crew coming to visit Eau Claire for a soccer tourny.
*Getting a call from Jared last night singing my favorite song he has written called pickles and cheese because he heard how burned I was and how I have been having a crappy couple of days.
*I am back working at the pool for the 3rd year. I'm starting to hate it because my boss has no idea what she is doing because it's her first year. I even had to train everyone, and do I get credit for this at all, nope.
*The instructing of soccer is back on again as well. But this time I am going to be instructing 4 hours with little kids and I'll have two partners. More hours more pay no problem with that.
*I have gotten the chance to get closer with friends from high school and realized some things about other friends that isn't so cool.
*Staff Bonding at the pool ends up with many drunk people showing off their piercing.
*I got a new pair of shoes (wait this is me I buy shoes almost every week) but these shoes are the coolest. They are keens and super comfy and waterproof and anti-odor. Super sweet stuff!
*I changed my stupid cartilage ear ring to a cool curved bar bell with pink with white star balls on the end.
*Got into an accident on 94, crashed the moms car making it be 3600 dollars of damage.

So now onto the things that are really starting to bug me....
Recently my 4 closest girl friends have been ignoring me and pretty much leaving me in the dark. It really has come up because this girl Sarah one of the girls in the group is home for 8 days from Florida and we all haven't seen her. Well we were all planning on hanging out on Thursday. I call Sarah and she's sleeping and left her a message to call me back. Nothing from any of the girls that night. Friday night I had plans but was going to meet up with them later. Come to find out they were going to these two parties and didn't decide to call me till after they were drunk. One girl said she got a message from me and said I didn't want to come out because of the mono. Nope not true why would I be out for staff bonding night then? Well Sat. I get a call at 9:30 at night while out to dinner with my family for fathers day. She leaves me a message saying that bunch of them were going to allies to spend the night and she was leaving in 5 minutes. Awesome thanks for the heads up 30 minutes before my curfew, like I had a chance to go to that one. So I call her back and nobody answers, sweet huh? I said something to one of the girls and I got the comment oh we really didn't want you to feel left out but we just haven't seen Sarah and are so excited to see her. Wow that's great I haven't seen her at all yet and she leaves soon. I really am stating to feel like I am sarah's replacement. That I have been used as a way or ride for the girls to get around, especially when they are drunk because I can't drink yet. We'll see how things go tomorrow night, if they are going to call me about our Tuesday night ritual. Maybe I have just done some growing up and they are still stuck in their high school click. I don't know I'm feeling hurt and left out and not wanting to deal with it at all.

Another thing that is really bugging me is people that aren't true to themselves. There is a person around here that is from my high school that has been lying to me and everyone else. A few of us are really sick of it and aren't able to deal with the bull shit all the time. This guy acts like he's the best thing in the world and that everyone likes him, which really isn't the case, they are just too scared of him to be mean to him. He also has been cheating on his girlfriend, A LOT! I'm not sure what to do about it but it's really starting to bug me. I really feel bad for his girlfriend because she puts up with the crap he's sending her way.

Finally I am sick of this one kid who is from GB. He's acting like he is best friends with everyone in our small-hall-Ian crew. Which isn't the case. He came up to Rhi-town and annoyed the crap out of everyone there. He even told his roomie whose friends with all of us that he really hated hanging out with us and wished he hung out with this girl that we call pink megan and her friends more than us. Way to be real fake the whole weekend. This kid jared sang this song pickles and cheese for me. Well this kid reid didn't and wasn't a part of the whole reason why I loved this song so much. Well now he's acting like it was this thing between him and jared and trying to be cool about it. It makes me mad, it really shouldn't but it was a thing that jared and I were doing. It all comes down to that he wants all of the attention for himself. When he's not getting the attention he makes a way for him to be the center of attention. He's got to get everything his way, the worst part is that he's an only child and you can tell. He is used to getting his way all the time. Not that I have a thing against only children at all, most of the time they are super sweet kids but this one just goes over the edge. He makes it out to be that him and his family really hate each other when the case is that he's doing it for us to feel bad for him. He thinks he's the hottest thing known to man and gets depressed when girls reject him. He's one of the only guys I know that are more emotional than most girls I know. I swear he's a chick. Wow I'm a horrible person for saying all of this stuff but for anyone who knows this guy knows that it's true!

Wow what a mean post this has been. Hopefully I'll end up with having some friends in the end of this whole thing. I'm going to go receive the biggest bitch award now.... have a great night.

Part 3 of the best day of my life

Sorry I haven't been on here to finish my day of enjoyment. But here we go...

After wandering around the venue my mom and I decide to go sit down because it was getting time for the thrills to get on. No body from the group we went to lunch with were there yet once the thrills came on. I was expecting a pretty sweet show from them being that their CD was good. Well I was proven wrong. They were horrible, absolutely horrible. They were stoned out of their minds. The bass player had this expression on his face like he was dumbfounded. He also would just wander around and not even play half the time. The lead singer after every one of their songs would take a bow and say thank you thank you! After the 3rd song it got pretty annoying. I was really ready for them to be done. After they got done there was a half hour break. Me being the friendly person I got to know everyone around me. I find out that the woman sitting behind me is the sister of this girl we consider part of the family. It was weird. There was a group of a mother and a daughter who was around 15 in front of us. They had signs, yes I love Maroon 5 but I'm not a fan of making the signs. They had gone to 3 concerts and paid for SIN sets at all three that's almost 500 dollars not including the traveling from 5 states. That's a little much for me. Then the lights go down and there is this curtain up, with the background changing colors and you can see the silhouettes of the boys coming on stage starting up the beginning of tangled. The whole concert was amazing. Adam kept looking over at me, as I told my friends we were having mental eye sex hehe not really. Mickey saw my mom and waved and James came over on to our side and waved to us. Then we saw Shawn in the back smoking holding a towels. He made this jester to us like when trying to make a truck pull the air horn. Well it was him pointing to back stage. My mom being the idiot didn't get it and I told her to go talk to him. There went our chance to go backstage. Then he made a catching sign towards me and I just nodded. The guys go off and I knew there was going to be an encore. I saw shawn give them towels and say something to Adam and point at me before the lights went off. So we waited. When they came out they all had left their towels behind except for Adam, he had his. Then he came over right in front of me and threw his towel at me. YAY!! Being the former goalie I jumped up so high and grabbed the towel. Thing is there were bitchy high school sophomores behind me trying to get the towel away from me. I had grips on it so hard nobody was going to get it. I got punched and pushed over onto the chairs and then punched in the eye and elbowed in the lip but then they stopped and I had the towel, with Adam sweat and all. A great souvenir for the night. They played 3 songs and ended with she will be loved my favorite for 3 years before it even was on the radio. It was awesome!!

Being that we parked by tour bus we decided to wait and see if they would come out. After much boringness they never came out and we decided to make the trek back home to Eau Claire, so I could get on my way to green bay the morning. It was such an awesome experience that I don't think I will ever forget!!!! Now I can finally write about my final month at school and how summer is going...That will be later, I've got to go to work and do laundry.
