  Thanks Nick for being such a good friend towards me when I was not happy with my life. You made me relize that a band is not everything. That being in a band is not life. I would always like to say thanks for helping you promote shows, for some reason I love doing it, I could see myseld get into the business. I would also say that as of this time you are one of my good friends and I'm glad that we have so much in common. See you at the rock show. Thanks for understanding. Your a guy that I look up to, well actully down but that's besides the point.

Thanks Darren for turning my ears towards Eddie Money. I mean that guy wrote the catchiest chorus ever! I can not get "Take me Home Tonight," out of my head and I love it. I have heard that song before Darren but he brought a new life towards it. Ever since I started hanging with you I havn't laughed so much since I told my jokes to myslef in the mirror. That must be cool opening for your favorite band! That's something to frame on a fridge.

Thanks Liz for being you around me. Thanks for being an all around friend. Your awesome! I've told you before what you mean to me. So you should know.

Thanks John for being a fucking awesome friend. We need more kids who don't care about anything except for having a good time with kids. It's going to be awesome when I see you on stage writing your own songs with out and presure of your own creativity.

Thanks Hayley, Erin, and mallory for bringing a smile to my face evrytime I see you.

Thanks Yesterdays News for making me a better person, even though it doens't show. You have made my priorities change. Not everything is about a band. I lived and breathed the band but I relized what it was doing to my friends and I have learned from it. It will be cool to see you on stage, just make sure you don't suck when you go. That's really important. I still respect you guys Bryan you make me laugh my ass off and I can talk music with you. Larkin your just larkin don't care about shit rock on! Tyler my shadow your a smart kid get your prorities straight and you will be rocking. Jason your just awesome and you don't want to hurt anybody and that's a great trait to have. Who knows the ladies might appreciate it.

Mike ha your funny

Phoenix crew, you guys are funny, you make me think about having a good time. So therefore I do.

Adam and Travis Rock On!

If I Forgot...
Girls... Tell me I forgot then persude to make out with me.
Guys... Just tell me... Thomas I'm warning you!

  Today was a fun day because I got to hang out with nick all afternoon talking about Girls, making out, good movies, wierd card games, riding bikes to save money, why seaweed is are number one source of oxygen, music, you know the usual. Alright so I came home and I was completely bored and I saw a movie on the table. This movie I refused not to watch it for like a week. I finally gave in to watch it. Man was it great, I enjoyed the whole movie except hes ugly daughter, but other then that. I think she was in some show with that kirk guy. Well anyways I watched "What Women Want."

  Man boy do I hate my job...

Today I had to go into work at five o'clock. Once I was there I had to sit around doing nothing for an hour till I had to go do my turndowns. When I started doing my turndowns I watched 7th Heaven while putting mints on the guests pillow. After I was done watching 7th heaven I had to go back and sit around doing nothing. Then I got hungry so I went to Dos Locos and hade them make me some french fries and eat that. What a tough job.

  Sometimes it's good to go back to what you once knew. I went back to Phoenix this weekend and hung out with my best friend Craig, and hes Jock friends. I mean I really do mean Jocks all they talk about is football. I guess that's why there is Cliques. I've noticed that each Clique only talks about what they are interested in. Here I am kind of being like why are they always talking about football? They are just kids like everyone of us talking about what they love. I most likely talk about music and what I want to do to my car and of course girls. They tlak about football and girls. I guess some of you have already known this but to me it's changed my view about kids.

The weekend started off by me going to see a football game. This was cool cause I got to see all the girls I once hanged out with growned up. Man did they eat the right foods. Then I meet some new kids which was awesome because I also relized that all kids are the same. They always make fun of one kid, tell the same inside joke over and over again and they always get bored. These kids even get bored in Phoenix where they're is so much more to do there then there is in Tucson. I thought that was funny. The next day we were trying to figure out something to do but we ended up going to see a movie. Snowed In is hilarious.

Some new CD's I got.

Drive-Thru Sampler- Welcome to the Family= Good happy music.
Something Corporate- Audioboxer= Piano Rock
R.E.O Speedwagon- The Hits= Great Rock N' Roll

  What an unexpected evening. I ended up going to Phoenix for a rock show. That was fun. I guess I can say that I've almost seen all the drive-thru bands which is kind of cool. I met a cool guy from River City High which was also pretty cool, and the best part of it was how much fun me Liz and Darren had.

  One more day of school then I'm out for a four day weekend. How rocking is that? I get to celebrate thanksgiving with my family on thursday then I'm taking a road trip.... to Phoenix. So it's not a trip but it will be so much fun. Me and my car and some music. What could be better than that? Well I don't know, maybe a girl named Peggy Sue. So I'm headed up to Phoenix to chill with my best friend Craig.

Let's hear about Craig...

When I used to live in Phoenix, my friend and I were always together. We were the funny kids, both are humors put together to make a dangerously funny humor. We used to hang out everyday, go to football games feeling like the big kids. (That's when the football players looked like monsters) So we started liking girls, got a little risky and held on to girls hands. That was a huge step back then. Tried touching the little basketball rims, which we can now touch with our foreheads. We had so many great times together. I can honestly say that when I'm with him it seems like we havn't missed a day a part from each other. That's how cool we are. It's going to be great. Might be wierd but I will see him out on the field like he dreamt he would be when we used to throw the football around. That's so cool to see. Craig your awesome and it's going to be one great weekend filled with fun, music(please no rap),filled with women, and a maybe a making of some new friendships.

  What an easy day! I woke up not wanting to go to school like I always do. My mom gave me this thing for my insurenece people to know that I'm getting a 3.0 which I'm not getting so I need to get my grades up fast. I can't get a B in physics cause that's inpossible, so my only choice is getting an A in math which will be cake, cause I'll actully try.Then I jammed out to some Joan Jett which got me pumped. I went to all my classes and came home and watched some VH1. I learned some cool stuff about New Wave music that I never knew about which I was happy. I read somewhere that there is rock history classes in collage, that would be so awesome to take those classes. The other night I was talking to this girl at Skrappy's who does a radio show at the U of A and it is all indie music which is so cool. I think that could be a futire job for me, like being a radio guy but with indie music and Whitesnake power ballads. That would rock!

  Last night was one of those nights that keeps on going, with every moment filled with laughter and life. The night started out with me being a slave at my work which I got really mad about so I wanted to get out of there is fast as I could to meet up with my friends. I met up with my friends at the bowling alley old DK and Danger where we bowled all night. The best part about it is I finally broke 130 which was a goal I set for myself and came through. We had such a good time there, I would have been satisfied if the night was over there but it wasn't. We ended up going to denny's to get some food, but I only had some change. I ended up getting some fries, while Danger got some cheese fries which was a complete jip cause he paid two dollars more then me but got the same thing. Ha. So we ended up being in there for Atleast two hours of the worst server we have ever had in our life. I mean the service was so bad that we could of walked out and they wouldn't have noticed. We are good guys so we decided to leave it on the counter. We met up with some other friends and we went to go see the meteorites up on the hill by my house. We sat on the car hoods under warm blankets just chilling with our friends talking about making-out and having a good time. While watching the sky and stars and these little meteorites it was a beautiful night.

  Yeah I wasn't suprised that Reubens Accomplice blew me away! What a great night of Rock N' Roll. I had a good night hanging out meeting some new people, and talking about music. I'm glad that I get to see such great bands here in the wild wild west of Tucson. How cool is that? I mean I can seriously say that I love music. Whatever mood I'm in it makes me happy, even a sad song. Music to me is everything that I want to live for, unless I find a girl that I fall in love with cause that would be really spectacular. Man what a great night.

I LOVE ROCK N' ROLL- Joan Jett= That pretty much sums it up 
Thursday, November 15, 2001
  Well tomorrow is Reubens Accomplice. That is going to rock completly. Hopefully I will be abloe to help out Last Rock Stars but my work interfered which completly sucks. That really pissed me off, so I guess I won't be helping out, but It's going to be a great showcase of music

  I got some good music today...

Liars Academy... Great three piece, new kind of sound.

New End Original... Own it on vinyl, had to get it on cd so I could listen in my car, it's my new favorite band.

Joan Jett... What else can you say besides Joan Jett. 
  Ok there is this dance coming up at my school. For some very strange reason I do not want to go. I really don't know why. I think this is my excuse, "I want to wait tilll senior year, so that way I get the full affect." Isn't that crazy? Cause I know it is but for some reason I'm a full believer in that.

Still havn't got that record I wanted but they oredered it. 
Tuesday, November 13, 2001
  How horrible;e is it when I go try to find a cd and they don't have it. That really pissed me off today. I went to four different places and none of them had it.d Oh well maybe it will come in tomorrow. So until thing...

Did anyone appreciate what the veterans did for us? I know I thank them.

  What a fun night and day. I went camping, with some really great people. First off we left around five o'clock and got to camp right as it got dark. So we had to make tent in dark and find firewood. The firewood was kind of hard to find cause these tree's at Peppersauce were really skinny so we had to bundle up a lot. Then this drunk girl Anna completely fell on her face over this biggest rock alive and she got up as it was nothing. It was loud. That was the funnist part of the night. I just had to chuckle.Than Liz and Darren couldn't figure out the tent so I helped them out. After that we started up the fire and cooked some cheese dogs with purple ketchup. Man did that hit the spot, it was really good. After we eat Darren and I played guitar. That was really cool cause he taught me a couple of things. (Go see Burning Troy) Then we played some more guitars. Than eventully I just listened to Darren play guitar which is nice listening. S'mores are really good, who ever invented them knew what they were doing. Then we played some more guitar and the Harmonica. Went to bed. Well Chelsea and Todatiyah went to bed and then The Jiffy Pop Master made some good popcorn. Went to bed I fell asleep had a good rest. Woke up and everyone was complaning about how cold it was and how uncomfortable. I didn't know what they were talking about. Then we came home listening to some great music. 
Sunday, November 11, 2001
  Well I'm on my way today to go camping. This should be fun. We started out inviting a whole lot of people but as it's looking it will be about five of us roughing it in the outdoors. Well that's is exciting as it gets.

  Last Night I had to work from three thirty to ten thirty. I never work that much. I work at a hitel doing the easiest job alive and I complain about it. I mean I have never bused tables before. It seems like it would be easy but it's not. Well That was my day yesterday It rocked as much as Our home town heros 6th year senior. 
Thursday, November 08, 2001
  This weekend I'm going camping with a bunch of people amd it's going to be the best time I've had for awhile. The best part about it is that there is going to be girls. How cool is that? I think it's going to be rocking, kind of like the rocking that Reubens's Accomplice does.
 
  Why is music so great? Everytime i hear any kind of music must of the time it gets me pumped up. Some more than the others, every morning I have the hardest time trying to figure out what band I want to listen to before going to school. For some reason I spend like 10 minutes the night before thinking about it. I guess kind of like a girl figureing out what to wear to school the next day.

Today I can say that I'm completely back to normal. I don't feel sad, depressed or any of that nonsense. I think because I'm back to myself once again. I talked to the hot girl *A* with ease it was nothing. Than I was chilling with my friends talking about what else besides music. The one sure sign that I'm back though is that about two months ago I would always get in trouble for talking to peple around me. Then today I was talking to some kids in my class showing them a classic Matt Ritzel magic trick when I was told to move to a different seat. IT WAS GREAT!

Shout out to Chris... Thanks for saying that you enjoy my writing. That completely rocks! Thanks again. Might sound wierd but I smiled when I read it. Don't worry dude Britney Spears is amazing! Everyone is saying that cd is rocking so I might have to get it. I regret the day I sold her first album... It's a true classic.

  Guns N' Roses are amazing. 
Tuesday, November 06, 2001
  Cannot believe that I'm quoteing this band. They actully wrote some lyrics that mean something to me. It's not that bad put it turned a lite on in my head. This seems to been happening for a long time.

The Movielife- Single white female-------- Leave your fucking friend at the Smithtown mall where she belongs 'cause now she's got the same tattoo and she's learning all your songs. She tries to be like you and everyone can see. She's a fake. I don't want to see her when I'm on that fucking stage keep her away. 'Cause she steals everything, and your too blind to see. If she steals everything , what's left for me? Can't compete. Got you beat. She's my queen. She's my everything (Don't try).


Must of it is true maybe a little fixes here and there for my case.

  The last few days have been a little depressing for me. I've had a very tough week with many stresses involved. I looked as this weekend as my escape from school and work. As it turns out it just has even given me a harder time dealing with my friend Tyler. The other night I was talking to him online and he started yelling at me for no reason. "why are you being such a bitch?" and "why have you changed so much?" Those two things mad me want to smack him so hard. I didn't do one thing to be a bitch to Tyler. NOT one thing, and second I havn't changed at all except for the fact that I'm not happy at all. Except when it comes to two friends Nick and Liz. They make me want to see the night skies, they make me want to go see the dead snake on the road, they make me happy. Tyler and I seem cool when we're hanging out but between us both there is this huge tension between us waiting to break and blow up at any moment.

That is so much to take in by itself but there is one more thing.

There is this girl that I've known forever and she is like one of the coolest girls I know. She's been so cool to me and shes one of the greatest persons I know. I met her my freshmen year and started liking her my sophomore year. Everything that year was trying to do something with Hayley. She was the girl I liked. I liked her so much that I wrote her one of my crappy songs. So I gave her that and it said all this stuff about me wanted to go out with her and how much fun it would be. Of course she said no to the whole thing. So after like two weeks of not talking we become these unstoppable friends like she seemed even more cool now. There was no tension between us. For some reason though I always have had this thing for her, not a crush but something else. So yesterday afternoon I find out that Tyler is going to this dance with her. It was a complete shock. I don't know what to feel. I know it's just a friend thing but it really pisses me off. How could my so called best friend go out with one of my best friends? Is that possible especilly at this time? I don't know why he could try to take everything in my life that makes ma happy away from me. I think I'm just making a big deal out of nothing but it really hurts. So the great band of Fairweather once said " I need more time."

To a special friend.

Dear Liz,

Thanks for being the greatest thing to me over the past few months. You have done a lot to me to help figure things out and relize that I have more friends then I may relize. You've donw more than you will ever understand and I just wanted to say thanks for listening to my problems when I know that you have problems of your own to worry about. (boys suck you need a man like me) Just wanted to take a time out and so how much I love you and a big thanks. Tonight is going to rock!
