Back At Home.

Well, I've been home for a few days. Just been getting back into the swing of things, so I wasn't able to update. Sorry for whoever reads this.

I've been thinking---and I know, you're probably gasping right now and wondering, she actually thinks? OMG.---but seriously, yeah. I know, it's crazy. See, I've got this Tumblr page. And I'm wondering if I should use it as my main blog. But then, like, just now, I got this thought. No. I shouldn't. So I don't even really know why I'm still bothering to write about this.

Okay, so second. I might possibly maybe be getting a Blackberry. Coolness, huh? Yeah, I'm excited. Although it's still in the iffy stages, I'm pretty sure that I'll be getting that shiny new Blackberry Pearl soon. :D

Short post, my sincerest apologies.

Update.

Sorry for being unable to update the past few days...I've just been so busy. Usually we're out all day, and then when we do get back, I'm so completely exhausted that I just can't be bothered to update this. And the fact that there's no wireless and I have to connect with a cable is annoying as well. Not that it bothers me much, but I do have to go into a different room to use the internet every time I want to connect.

Anyways, I'm not going to be posting any photos, but I'll probably try to do that again later on. Not today, obviously, but perhaps in the next few days.

As to what I'm doing today, we're headed off to walk around the venue for the Reading Festival, because I want to see if I can watch You Me At Six---the awesome band that I'm now kind of friends with---and see if I can actually meet them again. Which would be totally cool.

Yesterday we were in London, and I actually didn't buy anything. Other than this really cool little mini book that had the script of A Midsummer Night's Dream in it. Because I just had to get it. But now I'm completely obsessed with these cool satchel type bags, ones that look like old school bags. You know; leather, squareish, with the flap opening and a long shoulder strap but also has handheld straps? Yeah, one of those.

Hint: Get me one. :)

So, sorry for not posting photos, but most of the ones that we've taken are weird. But that's only because Dad took them. The only good ones are the ones that I took of Tower Bridge (or whatever its called) because they're really well done. Just with the lights and everything. Um, I don't really have much else to say, other than the fact that I'm having a great time here. I love England, its so cool. :)

England Picspam. :D

Unfortunately, Blogger won't let my post more pictures. BLAH! Why, I ask? There's only five pictures so far!! I've taken, like, 150!! Stupid, mean, Blogger. :(


These cows were blocking the road.

I was eating crisps. Yum!

Youth Hostel. :)

These things are everywhere. (The sheep, btw.)

The stone is part of a stone circle. It was believed to be one of a pair, working as sort of an entrance type thing.

Random.

Hey there. I just felt like posting, and writing randomly about something that doesn't matter, so I decided to post this. It seems like that's the only reason I use this blog, really. Oh well.

So, life is good. I'm pretty much finished packing, with the exception of the stuff that I can't pack until tomorrow morning. Oh yeah, I'm going to England tomorrow. Betcha didn't know that, eh?
Woah, I'm, like, totally Canadian now. I wrote eh. Who writes that? Blah.

Anywho, I think that Kyle Burns is cool. Wait...off topic.
Hey! Hot Topic! I'm amazing.
Wow...talk about getting sidetracked. I think it's the paint fumes from that blasted fence. That thing was mental. Egh, I'm never painting a fence again. Or using white paint outside, for that matter. 'Specially when it's sunny out. Ouch.

So basically, I like blueberry muffins and Blackberry cellphones.
Oh, and plugs are annoying.
:)

Okay, I'm going to attempt to make some sort of sense now. Hey, did you know that Twilight---I mean, Eclipse is filming here in Vancouver? Y'know, I really want to find out where they're filming and go with this huge sign that says:

ALL YOU PEOPLE ARE VAMPIRES!

Then run away laughing like a maniac after I've successfully messed up the shoot. Sounds like fun, yeah? Why don't y'all stop by and watch.

...y'all?

Dear God, what is wrong with me?
I hope that question is answered...soon. :)
Now then, I'd just like to point out that the "All you people are vampires!" comment, is from the Arctic Monkeys song, Perhaps Vampires Is A Bit Strong But(...). Cool, huh? Oh, and I'm cooler than all of you because I've met You Me At Six, and I'm going to see the Arctic Monkeys next month. :D

kthxbai.

Woah Oh!

I'm in love with Woah Oh! by Forever The Sickest Kids. It's an awesome song.
Okay, so I thought I'd post some pictures from Warped Tour. Which I went to on Friday. It was really cool, except All Time Low wasn't there. Apparently Alex lost his passport on their way to LA (where they were doing a show) and so they couldn't get to Vancouver. That really sucked, but I had an awesome time anyways. Here's some pictures:


(left to right) Matt, me (I got a sunburn), Dan, and Josh. They're from You Me At Six. We actually met them a few times while we were there, this picture being from the second time. My friend and I were waiting for my mum outside the venue (where the buses were) and these guys passed by. Dan pointed at us (cause we'd met earlier after their set), and we took some more pictures together. It was really cool.


This is me and Kyle Burns from Forever The Sickest Kids at the signing. He's the drummer, and my favourite member of the band. It was awesome meeting him, we were wearing the same hoodie. :D


Me and Garrett from The Maine. He was really cool. This photo is from when he was at the merch tent signing stuff, but I also met him after his set. I have a picture from that too.


John O'Callaghan from The Maine. Garrett is the in background.


So when we were waiting in the super long lineup, Pat (who's in the photo) and Garrett--along with some other people--came down selling their CD and telling people what time they were playing. Originally I didn't actually ask for a photo, but then I ran after him and we took one. It was amazing.

So those were my photos. Warped was really cool, because I got to meet every band that I watched. And they were all really nice. I bought two T-shirts, and a CD. I also got a bunch of free stickers, and a signed poster from Forever The Sickest Kids. The CD I bought, Can't Stop Won't Stop by The Maine, I got signed by Pat and Garrett. I never got to meet Jared and John (and Kennedy, but he wasn't there) from The Maine, but the two that I did meet were really nice.

All in all, it was amazing. I had so much fun, and it was a really cool experience. I really hope to go next year, because I loved it so much. I'm still in such a good mood, and it's been three days since I went.

Hai.

I haven't posted in a while. Oh well. It's pretty late here, but not late at the same time. So, update on life. Today I found the movie I've been looking for for months and another DVD that I didn't even know I owned. Awesome.

You know, the summer is amazing. During the time so far, I've probably eaten more popsicles than I should've. But since it's the summer, nobody really cares. I can hang around the house all day and play video games with my friends. Which, coincidentally, is basically what I do. Except when I have to leave the house. Which also happens a lot.

My life is boring. Don't listen to me.

If you still are, I'll write about how I wish I was someone else sometimes. Because, even though I'm a teenager and have a lame excuse for a life, things get hard to handle sometimes. It used to be worse, but I won't get into details. Lets just say that I'm not nesscarily proud of some of my family members. If you're reading this, it's probably not you.

Well, on the bright side, I actually managed to write something decent today. Three chapters. Hooray. *insert applause*

So, er, I'd appreciate it if you be nice to the world today. The people in it aren't as happy as they appear to be.

kthxbai,

My Weekend.

Happy...oh wait. It isn't Monday anymore. Um...Happy Tuesday!
That was lame. But hey, today I'm going to the Blink 182 concert! Woo! *dances*
So, um, I went camping over the weekend! *insert cheer*

It was really nice, but I got a sunburn. D:
And there was this terrifying lighting/thunder storm, but I just kept singing songs in my head to keep my mind off of dying. Seriously, it was that scary. There were literally no breaks between the flashes. I was terrified. Other than that, the camping trip was really fun, and I'll definitely go to that campground again.

Um...it's 12:32 am right now, but for some reason I just can't get to sleep. It's kinda weird. I'm tired, extremely tired, but at the same time, I'm not. Very confusing. Maybe I should just lie in bed until I fall asleep.

OH! My friend came back from Japan the other day, and today I saw her! :]
She brought me a few presents, but I will only mention the one that I love the most.
Its this really cool little speaker, that looks like a die. And the sound quality is amazing.
I love it. Thanks.

That about wraps it up for this entry. Not very long, but I don't have much to write about anyways. xD
Oh well.

Just 'Cause I Felt Like It.

Heelloo. I was in the mood to rant about unimportant things, and then thought,

"Hey! I've got a blog for that!"

So here I am, writing about nothing. It's tres amusante. You should try it sometime. Just pick up a pen/pencil, or grab your computer, and start writing. That's how most of my stories start, now that I think of it.

But, I also have v v important issues to attend to. HP6. I went to see it, and I was amazed. It was incredible. I particularly enjoyed the parts with Tom Felton. Oh, sorry, Draco Malfoy. And when Harry drank the Felix Felicis. Because he acted like he was really hyper. I was hilarious. Apparently the actor, DanRad (Daniel Radcliffe), actually acts like that. People seem to think he's on drugs, when really he's just really energetic and hyper all the time. Reminds me of someone I know. Hehe. But yeah, the movie was extraordinaire. They did a really good job, but forgot to put in the part with Dumbledore's funeral. I was kinda disappointed and confused, then realized how long the movie actually was. Two and a half hours! If they had Dumbledore's funeral too, it would be soo much longer. Humph.

I heard this song earlier, and happen to be listening to it now, where it sounds like the dude is swearing, when really he's saying fight. I'm thinking that you people can imagine what swear word I thought I heard. It's not even that great of a song. Def not my fave on the band's new album.

OH! Speaking of new albums, All Time Low's album, Nothing Personal is number 4 on the charts!!! When I saw it in the paper, I highlighted it and jumped around. My dad blamed me for their success, being one of the people who bought that album. I was v happy. That album is beast.

July is going really fast. I was really surprised when I woke up this morning, and tried to figure out what day it was. When I did, 10 minutes later (or something like that), I was like, WTF? It's the 24th already?!?! And its Thursday! I never really liked Thursdays, Saturday is by far the best day of the week. Because when school is on (which I am not looking forward to) you don't really have to worry. Unless, of course, there is a test or something. The day after is weekend, and you can sleep in! The two best things possible! YEHEAH.

This morning, I almost walked into a door. It was annoying. I keep doing that. Except, normally, I actually do hit the door. Seriously, I need to look where I'm going. Instead of just staring at my shoes. Or feet. Depending where I am.

Anyways, thats about it for me today. kthxbai.

Ack.

I haven't posted on here in a while. Ah well, here I am. I can't even believe that July is almost over, I mean, school will start in just over a month now! Its awful. But on the bright side, the Blink 182 concert is at the end of this month. And I'm really excited for that. Um...I finished another story today. This one I really loved writing, it was tons of fun. And all the comments I got on it were really helpful. Now I can concentrate on my other ones, instead of stressing about finishing this one! It's a nice feeling, finishing a story.

Well, that's about all I have to write about. Byebye, blog. For now, of course.

Lost In Stereo.

I'm currently listening to the new All Time Low album, and it's awesome. When I first listened to it, I thought that it was just a bit over-produced, but now I adore it. Tomorrow I'm going to Playland, which should be fun. I honestly can't wait to go on all the roller coasters and stuff. I'm so excited!! :D

In other news, I think that I'm going to be getting a new phone. That is a good thing, of course, because I want a Blackberry. That way, I can Twitter on the go. :]
It'll be great, and I can't wait to get it.

Yesterday I was cleaning my room--for no specific reason--and I discovered a huge stack of paper! *insert flails* So now I have tons of paper to write/doodle all over. :D

Ew..there's a bug in my room. Gross. Ha, sorry for getting off track there. Anyways, this post is pretty pointless, muchlikemostofmyotherposts, so I'm just gonna say this: My parents are considering sending me to England for August. After I go to Warped, of course. I really hope that I do get to go, but then I wouldn't be able to go Back To School shopping--yes, I do that--with my friend. We do that every year.

Ah well, I suppose that I should get off the computer. But then again, there's no hope for that. So I'll just do something more productive than ramble about nothing on here.

Hey There, New Layout.

New layout and title, you like?

I very much do like it, thanks. Three cheers for Alexander William Gaskarth as my banner! Also, I might also be changing the name of the web address for this site. Hopefully you will all like it. I'm thinking, hellobrooklyn. Just because Hello Brooklyn is one of my favourite new songs on the new All Time Low album, Nothing Personal.

This was just a post to see how the new layout looks, so nothing important.

Tis A Very Sad Day.

Today might possibly be the worst day of my life. Or, it's high up there, that's for sure. My favourite band--yes, I said favourite--has broken up. Panic! At The Disco has broken up. On their website, it says that Ryan and Jon are leaving to pursue their own musical stuff, while Brendon and Spencer will continue on as Panic. But it won't be the same. Ryan wrote the majority of their songs, and was the co-founder of the band--along with Spencer. HOW COULD HE LEAVE? And Jon was their bassist! I know that Brendon can play any instrument he wants, but still! THEIR BASSIST! Here's the actual post from the website:

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN…

July 6th, 2009

Ryan Ross and Jon Walker will be leaving Panic at the Disco to embark on a musical excursion of their own. Though the four of us have made music together in the past, we’ve creatively evolved in different directions which has compromised what each of us want to personally achieve. Over the years, we have remained close and honest with each other, which helped us to realize that our goals were different and that parting ways is truly what is best for each of us. We are all excited for the future, you should be too.

-Ryan & Jon

Stay posted to the Panic site for updates on Ryan and Jon’s new project, as well as a message from Brendon and Spencer who will continue on as Panic At The Disco. All touring and album plans for Panic will continue as previously announced.



I'm really sad about this, but hope that everything goes well for the band and fans don't stop listening to them. I definitely won't, and will totally be checking up and listening to whatever Ryan and Jon post up. As for Brendon and Spencer, I wonder what will happen. Of course I'll still love them as Panic!, but it won't be the same. I'll definitely be listening to them still, because the are--and always will be--my favourite band.

I hope that Ryan and Jon stay together though, because it wouldn't be as nice if they just separated as well. At least all four are remaining friends, I hope.

It's been a while.


My, my. Well, I'd like to start off by posting the lyrics to a song that I absolutely adore. I'm not posting the entire song, because that would take up too much space. Here ya go:

Lights go out and I can't be saved
Tides that I tried to swim against
You've put me down upon my knees
Oh I beg, I beg and plead (singing)
Come out of things unsaid, shoot an ap
ple off my head (and a)
Trouble that can't be named, tigers waiting to be tamed (singing) 
You are, you are


Recognize it? J
ust think for a minute, it shouldn't be th
at hard. It's Clocks, by Coldplay. A few of my friends went to see them the other day, actually. 

In other news, school is officially over as of June 25. This summer is going to be especially long, because school doesn't start again till September 7. I don't plan to do 
much this summer, and my schedule goes as follows: eat, sleep, write, read, get older, and go to concerts. Simple, isn't it? But unfortunately, my lovely parents want me to work with them. I don't have a problem with that, but I do still want time to do whatever is on that list above. 

Mom keeps bothering me about my birthday, and what I want to do. I answered, "Nothing." 
She didn't seem satisfied, and continuously brings up the subject. I just want to get older in peace, thank-you. But, when she asked about the cake, I simply responded, "Raspberries." So now Mom has to figure something out that has raspberries in it. Hopefully it will be delicious. But I'm not worried about that. 

I'd really like to post another picture, because I think that it is v pretty.


Just look at the adorability of that kitty! It's so cute! I also enjoy Tom's shirt. Snoopy for the win. If you didn't know, that is Tom Fletcher of McFly, and his adorable kittykat! I stole it from a Twitter post. I just can't get enough of that kitty, though. I mean, it's so much smaller than Timmy! But Timmy is still cute. Even if he is fat. 

I don't know what else to say, and apologize for never posting. I am fail. Oh well, I promise to post again soon, and write about boring things that nobody cares about. :]

Monday, May 18

Hmm.

Hey.

Good/Bad News: I've been sucked into the world of Gossip Girl. I actually watch it now; instead of laughing at it, like I used to. 

So sad/awesome. The long weekend is almost over, and I still have to do my homework. More importantly, I need GLADIATOR SANDALS!! I really want a pair, but don't want to go to the mall alone. And since everyone seems to be busy, I don't know what to do. 

It really sucks.

SUPER EXTREME PICSPAM!!!! *cheesy grin*

HEY!!! THIS IS MY SUPER EXTREME PICSPAM!!! THERE ISN'T ANY CAPTIONS...SORRY. IT WAS TOO TEDIOUS TO PUT THEM ON EVERY SINGLE PHOTO. THE PICTURES ARE IN A COMPLETELY RANDOM ORDER, BUT I WILL TELL YOU WHO'S IN THEM. 

Photo Occupants:
RYAN ROSS, BRENDON URIE, ALEX GASKARTH, SPENCER SMITH, JON WALKER, TOM FLETCHER, HARRY JUDD, DOUGIE POYNTER, AND DANNY JONES. THERE'S ALSO SOME RANDOM CAR, BUT I THINK THE CAR IS AWESOME. 

FOR THE TOM/HARRY/DOUGIE/DANNY SPOTTING THINGS, PLEASE READ THEM. THEY ARE REALLY COOL. OH, AND SORRY FOR ALL THE CAPS. I'M HYPER. 
*flails and cheesy grins*





























 

                                          


 



THANK YOU!!!! LOU. <3>

Greetings.

I'm writing this from the living room, instead of my bedroom. I managed to get some wireless up here, which is FAB. The hockey game just ended, and now we're watching another one. The Canucks (our team) won the game 3 to 1. WIN!! haha. 

My wireless is going all wonky, so I won't write anymore. But hopefully there will be another post later today. Or probably tomorrow, coz I'm working at the EPIC show. It's a trade show at the new convention center. Technically, I'm just helping with the set-up of one of the booths, but whatevers. Anyways, post later. Hopefully! 

Oh and, check out Twitter. It's similar to Facebook, yet completely different. I'm addicted!

It's Been A While...

Hey, it's been a while. Sorry I haven't been posting, but many things have happened recently. Good...and bad. 

Good, being that I'm working on the Mainstage Musical. I'm a dresser, meaning that I get assigned certain actors and make sure that they look presentable to go onstage. 

Bad, being that my family's dog has died. Her name was Punky, and we'd gotten her just before I was born. She passed away today, and I'm really sad. It's hard to express opinion online, but I think you could probably guess what I'm feeling like at the moment. 

This was an exceptionally short entry, but I'm tired and depressed, and can't write. 

Lou.

Weekend

Hello. It's been awhile since I last posted...hmm. Anyways, things are well. Tomorrow is the 'Greek Easter thing' at the neighbours house, and I plan to crash their party and steal some chocolate. But, since I've been invited, I can just steal chocolate and run, without any trouble. Which is nice. 

The bookshelf is now being painted--by me--and I'm currently waiting for it to dry. Hopefully that will go fast, then I can do another coat, and finally paint-splatter it. My plan is to put a bunch of paint on a brush, then splatter it on the bookshelf. If I do it correctly, it will look nice. But, knowing me, I probably won't do it right, and then it will look like crap. How wonderful. 

Today's post won't be long, since I've not got much to say. Other than the fact that I've redone my profile (now I have to wait for the person doing the layout to finish) and it looks much better. More colours and less pictures and such. Much nicer now. 

Lou.

Dentists

Got back from the dentist, and I apologize for not updating. I am an idiot, and have no memory whatsoever. Now, I am EXTREMELY happy. Because yesterday I finished City Of Glass, and it was EPIC!!!!! 

You see, Jace and Clary turned out NOT to be related, meaning they could happily fall in love. Clary's real brother was Sebastian-or at least pretending to be him-and was evil. It was strange, but a happy and good ending. The only part I like is, that Alec and Magnus FINALLY got together. I mean, seriously, you can't hide it for that long. Yay for them. 

UHM, I don't know what else to say, other than the fact that I am being extremely tedious with my story updates. Dunno why, I just never get around to writing anymore. I'm too busy reading. Whoo for that. 

Lou.

Erm.

Hello. If you were wondering why I'm posting at this time, no, it is not because I am skipping school. It is because today is a Collaborative Day, which means that the teachers have meetings in the morning, and the students don't need to be at school till 9:50. Or rather, that's when school starts. 

Well, I don't feel like posting much at the moment, but there might be another post later today, explaining the boring part of my day. ie, all of it. 

Scared, because I think Tom Fletcher is reading the Twilight series, 

Lou.
