First and foremost. I'm 21, bitches!
This weekend was...amazing. I suppose I can begin with Friday night...
I got off work at 4 and headed straight to Carlisle to pick up Jonas and head up to Bowling Green to bring Jessica down the take part in the festivities. Loots of freaky things were happening. Mom's van windowjust shattered for no apparent reason at all. Lights in the warehouse were falling. And Jonas and Elizabeth witnessed a car crash right in front of them. It was weird.
So, anyways. We drive up there and pick Jess up and head back. Once midnight hit...we headed to a bar. Speak Easies in middletown. It was alot of fun. Drank some flaming shots. Talked about Starbucks to Jessica for...oohhh about a hour. And Jonas bought me a t shirt that the owner of the bar signed.
I got reaal drunk and ended up coloring my hand green. "Loook I'm green!"
Saturday...Me and Jess went to my work to meet Lomalouise. We hung out there talking to Becky, Chris, and Dawn for about an hour then headed off to meet Dad for dinner.
Lunch at Ruby Tuesdays then off to Fridays where we met everyone...like..everyone for dinner and drinks. Let's see...Jess, Jonas, Daphne, Emily, Britt, Brandon, Dustin, Sarah, Tanda, Lis, and, Casey. Yet again, I got really drunk. Everyone was buying my shots and I was wasted. Then plllaaan was to go make a beer run to Krogers and then head back to my house so that everyoe could be just as drunk as I was. Daphne ended up making me leave Krogers cause I wouldnt stop hugging random people.
But...to my suprise we went to drop Jonas' bike off at his house and when we got there everyone was waitng for...cake and all. It was soo nice. They got "Happy Birthday Brandi. 21 Years of Defying Gravity" written on it and it was pink and green. Jonas got me a professional massage (sp?) a t shirt. Rainbow suspenders and a key chain. Jess got me a WIcked hoddie. And Mom got me a "Pink goes good with green" tank top. It was so nice. And being around everyone was so humbling and just awesome. So much grattitude to everyone. I looved every min of it.
So, a huge thank you and hugs and kisses all around.
Quotes: "Grandma! There is no dress code in the kingdom of heaven!" -Dustin "What do you get a lesbian with a rich father?!?" -Lis "I mean, when your drug dealer tells you you're weird...it kinda hits home." -Lis "Your drug dealer's right! You are weird!" -Brandon
ps. Sorry thats all the random quotes I can remember. Hehe.
Peace! |

she wasn't filled with rage. even though the salt on her trembling hands told her that she should be. they were telling her to pick up the phone and call Al, let her know how she was hurting and how it was all her fault. ask her how she could have done this to her again. would it have really been that hard to stop? and why she couldn't stay? after everything they had said and done? after Al knew how she felt? after she knew how Al felt? even after all of that Al was still out with him and she was still sitting at home alone wondering what everything that had happened would mean for their future. she shook her head. like they could ever have a future. things weren't as simple as they once were and even if her feelings hadn't changed in the time they had been apart she knew the world hadn't stopped. the phone rang and for a minute she thought it could be Al calling to say she loved her and she was on her way over to see her. but reality quickly set in and she placed the phone back on her desk. the only thing that could keep her sane was knowing that what happened last night could have never happened at all. since they had been apart they had dated other people and there had been no certainty that their love they once had would still be as strong. but it was. probably stronger. when she looked at Al she was lost. the world faded into one small room where just the two of them laid on the bed. Al never had to speak. she had the type of eyes that couldn't hide anything.they were bright. and when she would smile they would form two small versions of everything right and beautiful in the world. it was an unconditional happiness that she only felt when Al's hand slipped into hers. melting her body to a place where only she could bring her out of. she'll never be mine. she kept repeating it in her head. she. will. never. be. mine. as much as she loved Al. she knew she had to let her go. she knew she needed to let her be with him. she knew they would always be friends. friends. she knew now that their love was something that couldn't change and she had to be okay with that. she had to be able to accept this fact or she would never be happy. she knew at least telling herself that she was okay and that Al's happiness meant more than hers would be enough to get her through the night. and that's all she really needed. just...get through the night. |

One word. Wicked.
Jessica was home last week and i took a few days off of work so we could do what we always do. Which is sit around and watch movies. We went and saw Fun with Dick and Jane. Which was really funny. And then we rented In Her Shoes. Which was too cute. One of those feel good movies. We watched Reefer Madness with Amy Lee and Casey. Which....oh man. No words except...."Listen To Jesus Jimmy" Theeen On Friday night we went to the Arnoff in Cincinnati to see Wicked. And oh how amazing it was. I was so totally impressed with it. I haven't been that into a new musical since Aida. And you all know how much I loved Aida. So, Dad bought us the soundtrack. And I have been listening to it non.stop. And with the added bonus that Idena Menzel (The OBC Maureen from RENT) played the OBC Elphaba. Which makes the music just that much better. The music was great. The effects were amazing. It was really funny. And brilliantly written. I wanted to go see it again but it is unfortunately sold out in Cincy. Newspapers say it sold out in a half an hour. Uhhhmm, in other news. I am still at Starbucks. I still love it. Megan is awesome. I worked a 10 hour shift last night. Which included the Siren's EYE. Which is basically us putting out new merchandise and changing all the signs in the store. But, she brought me Cheez-its and a Mt. Dew cause she said thats all she ever sees me eating. I thought that was real real nice. Other than that. I'm not dating anyone right now. Still loving living with Dad. Even though I go to Mom's house alot. And I still miss allll my friends that don't live down here. Which is everyone. So, love you all and maybe one day our schedules will coincide and we can get together. Til then. Peace out! |

but right now all i can see are your eyes. piercing down into the blocks in my memory tearing each fiber down until all that is left of me is a strand of deflated hope. there is you. siempre....solamente usted, take my hand and take me away. take away my fantasies and make them real. i dont want to hurt you. but i dont want to leave you. why are things never here when i am? so. ill wait in this room til my name is called. its not about understanding, it's about not giving up. |

Reaaal update is such as follows...
It's Tuesday night. Which of course means...I am an official resident of Loveland Ohio. Buuut, let's go back a little further. Wednesday of last week. I went to work...then a store meeting....then to Melissa's apartment off the field ertle exit and I spent the evening chillin' there and watching movies and such with her and Kari. (whom of which I'll speak more about a little later.) But, the point of that was that I slept alll day Thursday so when I fiiinally got all my packing done I ended up down at my dad's house around 2 in the morning. Woke up for work at 9 - 2 then packed up my shit and headed to Bowling Green to see my favorite person in the whole entire world.
I had alot of fun up there. We spent the lot of the time watching movies. We went to see Brokeback Mountain in the theaters then we ended up watching Million Dollar Baby, Serenity, Silence of the Lambs, and Red Eye. But, I don't mind. I love movies. Plus, I love watching Serenity with Jess, because we always find new things in the movie to point out to one another, you know? This week was that Mal was so "early season" Mal...because of Inara....and that makes complete and total sence.
Jessica's roommate is. Odd. And that's all I can really say about that.
Jess and I
Jess and I in B & W
In other news...I fucking love my job. I work at Starbucks on Harper's Point. My manager is super nice. Her name is Lomalouise. There isn't anyone that I have kinda put my guard up around yet. Becky and Myra have both been sooo coool. Like, they actually take the time to train you?! What a novel concept! This will be my third week, I do believe. And as of Friday at 2:00 p.m. I am an official certified Barista! I got a pen for my apron and everything! It was awesome!
It's weird not living with Jonas anymore. Like, I feel like I have all of this idle time in which I was normally watching TV or going to walmart or playing video games with him and it's weird not to see him at all. But, he is supposed to be coming over tonight after work. Hopefully he doesn't have to get up early and we can go to steak n' shake or something. Not that I really have money to be going to steak n' shake. But, it'd be nice just to go sit and chill. I love that kid soooo much. I don't really think anyone understands.
Starbucks totally threw me into almost 40 hours a week, so really I don't have allooot of time to be sitting around doing nothing. Buuut, I have managed to find the time to hang out with this girl I met. Her name's Kari (see above) I'm not quite sure what's going on between us. But, I am at the point right now where. Details and "titles" and all that are really not what's important. We've hung out alot this past week or so and it's just been...nice. I'm not quite sure how to describe her. And all anyone who actually reads this needs to know is that she makes me smile. And that's what's important. So, I'm sure there'll be more about that at a later date.
Other than that.....everything is pretty much normal. I miss the hell out of Jessica. And I can't wait til we can have more "mirror lake" times.
Much love all.

Well, it's been a crazy couple of...something. Where to begin...
I'm still working at American Eagle. I actually really like it. It took me a while to get used to it and become comfortable with telling people which outfit would look better on them or their son/daughter. But it's cool. And hell yeah I know a shit ton more about different washes and styles of all our jeans. But I won't work there for much longer as I have finally decided to move in with my Father in Loveland. I have been down there the past couple days applying for a job. I applied at Starbucks, Don Pablos, Old Navy, Target, and Panera Bread. I applied at 2 different Starbucks. One on Harper Point and one off the Loveland Indian Hill exit. Before I even left the store manager at Loveland said he could get me 30 hours in that store and send me to different stores (i.e. Harper Point) if I wanted more hours. He seemed pretty desperate. But he said it was great that I had complete availability and he told me to come in for an interview on Monday. Then later last night Harper Point called and told me to come in for an interview on Friday. So, either way I just hope I get a job at one of them. Then I had an interview at Don Pablos today and he said I could start Saturday. Which I am still deliberating if I want to serve again. I really like the customer interaction but I HATE how restuarants let customers walk all over their employees. And since I am moving down there where I have NO friends I think I would make friends easier working at Starbucks rather than a resaurant. I enjoy the atmosphere alot more. Annnyway, we will see how that pans out after this weekend. ::crosses fingers for Starbucks:: In other news, Jessica has officially moved away to Bowling Green. I handled it pretty well the day we moved her in. It was something that I knew was going to happen again. So, I kept my composure. At least until we got in the car to drive home. But today has definantly sucked. I think God was just like, "You two will never live apart from each other. I have created you to completly fall apart if you fuck with my rules." Now, I know I should do alot more with my religion than I do now. But I truly believe He wasn't shitting around when he made up that rule. And no one really understands it. Everyone is always like, "You know, you and Jessica can't live together your whole lives. Eventually one of you will get married or one of you will have to take a job in another state." Well, let me just say this one more time. You. All. Are. Very. Wrong. We've got those houses we are going to build with the underground tunnel connecting them. Cause Lord knows we dont want to have to go outside if we want to talk. And we will just have to marry people who understand that. And that. is. that. One more thing.... I know alot of people don't like Eminem. But, I do. In fact I love him. Therefore, everyone needs to check out his new song..."When I'm Gone." It is. Amazing. I've had it on repeat all day. Which I am sure isn't helping my pessimistic mood. ::shrugs:: oh well. "We don't know. So, we wait for tomorrow...." And I'll leave you with that.

| » Wish List |
Stolen from sophie_grace
Step One
- Make a post (public, friends locked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a Snape/Hermione icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
- If you wish for real-life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.
Step Two
- Surf around your friends list (or friends friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part:
- If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.
- You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.
- There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
My 10 wishes: 1.) I wish to see Tegan and Sara in a smaller show type scene...that way I can meet them. 2.) I wish to be able to get off work so NY dusche can come visit at the end of the month. 3.) I wish to have an animated icon of Tegan kicking over the fan in the speak slow video. 4.) I wish to have the complete box set of BtVS. 5.) I wish to have money to buy all my friends Christmas presents. 6.) I wish to be able to spend more time with Kyle and Megan. 7.) I wish for my family to stop fighting and hating us so I can stop pretending that I don't care. 8.) I wish I could get my Mum the perfect thing for Christmas so she doesn't feel alone and unhappy. 9.) I wish no one ever felt alone. At all. 10.) I wish I could meet Alanis and have her know that I am not just a JLP fan. And let her know how much I really love her music and how much she has really done for me without even knowing me. Even though I'm sure she already knows how much she impacts her fans.

i'm staring out the window into the beautiful snow. i have waited too long. and i won't let anything stop me this time. my hand reaches for the door handle and i pause. lighting a cigarette in the car and changing my ipod to another depressing song had become too difficult so i cut the tips off the fingers of my gloves. an act now i wished i hadnt done as the chill of the door handle raced through my fingers and straight to my heart. remembering all the times i hadn't gone out i swore to myself i wouldnt let it stop me. i couldn't. i needed to be a kid again. i needed to go outside and play in the snow for no reason at all. when had i gotten to the age where it was "too cold?" when in life had i stopped doing this because other people weren't doing it. when did i start caring what other people thought...weither i looked stupid. i was the one having fun in the snow and they were they ones freezing there watching me. fuck it. im going. as i opened the door the breeze hit my face and i was frozen in my steps. it stripped my body down and all my failures and regrets stood between me and my attempt to have something worth feeling. my chest tightened and another fucking tear fell to the ground. i hung my head and admitted defeat. maybe next year.

| » if you don't care. then i don't care. and we're not going anywhere. |
so, im pretty sure this whole fight between us has to be over. we've both said some pretty fucked up things in the past. most of which had to spring from some fucked up version of love. things that could only hurt you when it comes from someone that's been as close to you as i have. and the other way around. and i would love to say that i hate you. after everything you put me through. but, i'll always know that deep down, i don't. which is why i let it get to me like it did. i'm, just here to say....you won. there wasn't much either of us could have said that we haven't said before. or haven't used to completely tear the other person down. and you went to a place i never would have dreamed to go to. and i'd like the believe that it means you were never the person i thought you were. and you are every characteristic of the person i know you to be now. and that i can finally let it all go.

So, going through my old marching band and winter guard tapes I have decided there are a few phrases that will never grow old and will always give me that feeling...
1.) Carlisle High School Marching Band you may now take the field for preplacement and/or warm-up. 2.) Calisle High School Marching Band you may now take the field for OMEA State Marching Band Finals. 3.) He who throws mud loses ground. 4.) Story time! 5.) Are the Judges ready? Is the guard ready? Carlisle High School you may now take the floor for competition. 6.) Carlisle High School: Division 2. (Even though we had no clue what that meant.) 7.) The following bands have recieved a Superior rating and have qualified for State Marching Band Finals... 8.) It's all in the State of the Mind... 9.) Oh Father, who art in Heaven... 10.) ::does pinky kiss thing:: good luck. 11.) ::blows whistle:: take it back! 12.) If you are not running....ask yourself "why." 13.) Take it back to the strapless. 14.) Take it back to the rotating "Key" 15.) 498....499...::someone drops flag....ONE! TWO! THREE! 16.) 5, 6, 7, 8....the WOMBAT! 17.) 500 drop spins. 5, 6, 7, 8.... 18.) Lamplit! 3, 4!
If I've left any out...please feel free to add.
Missing the high school crew. "These are our glory days..."

Gloria: But, you know, we're in a country where all feminists are lesbian's right? Dana: And they think that all feminists are man haters so naturally they are lesbians. Gloria: That's funny because it's been my experience that it's the women who live with men that hate men. Lesbians can kinda take it or leave it alone. Their friends with men. Jenny: Another big misconception is that if you're a lesbian you're automatically a feminist. Where as, alot of gay women I know are absolutely not feminists. Carmen: Well, that's for sure. Shane: What? I like women. Gloria: But, you have to admit that's what guys say, "I love women." Shane: Yeah Alice: Alright, can I just say, speaking as someone who likes the 'you know what...' Gloria: The 'you know what' means sex with men, right? Alice: Yeah, I didn't want to offend you, but, I like the penis. Gloria: No. No. No. You don't offend me. I like sex with men too. Let's just say...I'm predisposed. I bet alot of you are predisposed, right? Carmen: Predisposed! Shane: 100% Dana: As far back as I can remember, yeah. Me too. Alice: Not me, I follow the heart. Not the anatomy. Jenny: It's always so complicated, isn't it? Some people have a choice and some people don't about this thing. Isn't that right? Gloria: Right. Carmen: You know what...to choice. Everyone: To choice!
