The Halloween party at SHF was a lot of fun...Jake was a drag queen/my little pony. He was so cute in his little crown! We played games too, and we won Command! That was wierd. First off, he didn't want to stop and wanted to sidestep the whole time, but didn't for the game. Secondly, he didn't want to counter-canter. But he got it in Command. That was great. We got 3rd in Barrels. Jakie was sooo good! I'm pretty sure now that we're going to the Charlton Farms Schooling Show on Saturday...That'll be fun. I can't wait! I'll get the Jeep next Sunday...

[edit]: oh yeah... I saw an emu in someone's backyard. That was cool. I'm gonna own an ostrich racetrack when I grow up...

I FOUND MY LESS THAN JAKE SLASH!!!!! YAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!! ME SOOOOO HAPPY! I'M GONNA CRY NOW!!!!

[jir]

Uhhh...lots has happened lately. I'm going to take Fay lessons, and had my first one today! She is awesome, I could immediately feel a difference with Jake. School is wierd. I feel different lately, cuz now I've finally got what I want (a happy horse), nothing else really matters. I'm gonna try in school though. Even though techically, I only need the english and social studies credits...but oh well. Sammy went back to Mandak... The Sarto's new horse rules cuz she's smarter than they are. Lilly took off on Bill yesterday (XD!!!). I love her, she makes the Sarto's visits to the barn so much happier.

I don't feel like typing anymore cuz I'm hungry and I smell portabella pizza stuff...

I have 112 Buddy pictures saved to my computer.

*EDIT*

Make that 120 Buddy pictures saved to my computer.

Much has been happening! Horse Camp started and children are evil! My pony is awesome (go figure). I've been able to ride Sammy a few times, and Pammy needs to keep him. He's awesome. I officially love Sam more than Sioux. Harry Potter came out, and I'm only on pg 160. I should be reading, but I'm searching for where my horse came from...and so far I know he came from...:

I want to email them to ask if they know anything else about him, or have a pedigree, or another contact to find out his parents or bloodlines. My pony is from the friggen rodeo! I wonder what he did...I'll find out sooner or later. I just don't know what to say to these ppl.

Gah. *is shaking*

Camp totally sucked today...I don't do crafts. I almost quit about 4 times today. First, she had the Michelle that rides Jack and me take the kids up to do the craft. We figured it out, but it was messy. Then we brought the second group up, which included the kid whose mom created the project, so she's made these books before. Here was our conversation...

kid: You're not doing it right!
me: Then do you want to show us the right way?
kid: NO! It's ur job to teach us this!

I almost ended up strangling her. I can't do crafts for shit. Never have. Never will. Then Pam said, right in front of me, "That project was so easy, even a moron like my son could figure that out." That almost resulted in me storming out and leaving somewhere with my horse. But I walked away and tried to forget it. Then I needed to find a place for Cowboy, because he didn't have shavings in his stall yet. I knew I'd get yelled at if I left him with the kid that rode him to get shavings. So I asked Michelle for some advice for what to do with him for the moment, and she said to put him in a stall that hadn't been cleaned yet. So I put him on Claires, and Pam was mad b/c I couldn't watch a kid, hold a horse, and get a bag of shavings all at the same time. Thank what ever is out there that I didn't do something extremely irrational today. Mandi didn't do the craft thing, which was what she was supposed to.

Today sucked major ass, and what was weird was I actually talked to Ashley a little, though we both hate eachother.

OH YEAH! I remembered another thing that was bad about today. When the second group was doing crafts, Nicole and Amy walked in. Amy sat there and was talking about how she always went out and partied and got high, in front of 8-12 year olds. Of course, when people talk about their drug habits, they tend to swear...A LOT. And believe me, the little kids noticed. Ashley was obnoxious, because she refused to be labeled as a 'camper' or do any 'camper' activities. And when it was her groups time to ride...she said, "I don't want to ride! Riding is so gay!". I came pretty close to hurting her.

People are so frustrating...I hate them. Gah. Make them leave my pony alone!

I swear that I'm done rambling [for today] about horse camp and the downsides of living at the barn.

[jir]

PS: Nikki wants me to ride her Satinka! This will be interesting...

I'm bored...and waiting for it to get closer to noon. I'm going to the barn to ride Lydia, and it turns that it's really nice out. I just realized how close the SATs are, so I'm starting to freak out. I really need to look at the practice tests...

Green Day is tomorrow!

[jir]

(yes, I know this was a worthless entry)

I'M HOME!!!

The trip got shortened because my cousin's dad got fired, so they need to pay for him now. We still got to see the ponies though ^_^ And the Yankees lost ^_^ I also got to see my beloved Delaware. I'll probably post pics later. I took a lot...I like taking pictures now. I'll probably post more later...Gotta go eat pizza.

[jir]

Spring break came pretty fast...And I haven't been looking forward to it. I hate family vacations. I dread it. I fucking hate baseball, and going on vacations with dad. He's so annoying. One of the last ones, it was so fucking hot, and a person at Williamsburg suggested going to Six Flags. Dad said,"No. This is an educational trip." That made me flip. I love spring, why can't I be home to experience it? But instead, I have to go into summer. And then it'll be warm when I come back. It always seems to happen that way. The only thing I like about this trip will only last a few hours at most. We'll be in the car for over 25 hours. I wish we could just stay in one spot, in Virginia. I like it there...or Delaware. Or at least follow Less Than Jake like groupies! Saturday, I'm going to PA again. Then Sunday is the stupid baseball game. Then we go to see the ponies. There's a whole day of traveling in the middle of nowhere in there, and then Monticello. Then back to PA. I'm going to have NO time to myself, which is my most valuable time. I don't like being around people too much, I get pissed off too easily.

All of that reminds me of how badly I NEED my liscence. I need to just get away from people, and never can. I want to be able to just travel, without having to deal with people who annoy me.

I swear...I'm done rambling.

[jir]

That concert last night FUCKING ROCKED!!! Which I'm sure, the only people who actually read this know, but I'm probably going to forget in a few days, so I need to write it down.

We got to Northern Lights at 5:30, so we'd get a good spot. We stood outside, in the cold (without a hoodie) for an hour. My fingers turned blue. We got in, I got this weird hoodie thing I'm probably only going to wear in weird weather situations. We got in and waited a while for the bands to start. Some band from NJ was first, and I don't really remember them, but they weren't horrible. Right before they started, Roger walked by us and smiled at me...which made me happy. He was trying not to be noticed, cuz his hood was up (he has really long dreadlocks). Then halfway through the first band....BUDDY CAME IN AND STOOD BEHIND MY MOM! He looked so confused....So I didn't bother him, either way, I probably would have passed out or said something extremely stupid, then want to kill myself. I'm pretty sure he noticed me watching him, so he disappeared for a while, then left ;_;.

The second band was Kane Hodder, and they were from Seattle! They weren't that great...They sort of reminded me of Finch, because they'd sing, and then go into total screaming. But Finch doesn't scream like them. The 3rd one on was Hidden In Plain View. I didn't really like them...too emo for me. Allister was 3rd, and their Guitar/Singer was cute. He looked at me a few times...That was weird...I didn't like it. But they were kinda happy and uplifting, so they were okay. The moshing didn't start until they got on.

Less Than Jake was 4th....And before they got on, I came extremely close to killing many girls. Girls suck, no offence to my friends, because they don't. But in general, girls suck. This one girl thought she was getting all the way in the front (I was the 2nd person behind the barrier from the stage), and tried to shove past me. I wouldn't let her through, so she started yelling and swearing at me. Good thing I'm a horseback rider...My legs came in handy there (thank you pammy for all the no stirrup work!). She gave up, and eventually apologized to me for being a bitch. That was pretty funny. I didn't get it, because when they came on, she didn't move or anything. She stood there unimpressed and motionless, with a frown on her face. I had fun...I felt like I was high or something...I sang along to every song...And didn't know a lot of lyrics, but sang anyways. I was on Roger's side of the stage...and Buddy was on the other, but at least it was a small stage. Roger made some funny faces at me...and smiled a lot. Roger has this smile that if you see him smile, you can't help but smile too. Chris is just crazy and drunk, but he sang all the right lyrics (I think. I think at one point I looked at him really weird, cuz I was watching Buddy.... and forgot to change faces then looked at him. He gave me a really funny face. Vinnie was declared as the new Pope. JR was awesome, he rocks out so much.

Now only 1 member left to comment on...Which of course is....BUDDY! He was AWESOME. I wish I could play like him, he has awesome tone and is loud. He danced really cutely *daydreams*. In one of the songs without horn, he helped Vinnie out on drums on a cymbal, and was dancing with his back to the audience...He was shaking his ass! It was so cute! I could go on and on and on and on....He sang once, and he has a pretty voice ^_^ I lurvezes him. He played bass on my side of the stage ^_^ He's pretty good at that too, his fingers moved a lot and fast...*droool*

I should have grabbed Buddy and Roger while I could...Gah. Oh well. There's always next time! I lost that trombone I was bidding on last night. Someone payed $105 which, with shipping is like $140. It had mold on it...And practically no case. It probably had an old trombone smell too (yuck). I would have payed $40 for it, but not $140. I can find one without the mold cheaper.


Now, back in the real world (meaning today), I went to school with not much sleep. I was okay though, just extremely confused all day. Square dancing was THE BEST today. Kevin was my partner, so he's always amusing, and put him with his friends, and it's hilarious. He wore eye make-up today...That was somewhat amusing. The only thing I've really been able to think about all day, was of course, Buddy. Which lead to Kelly saying something funny...."STOP THINKING ABOUT FUCKING BUDDY!" That was sooooooo funny. In band, I was totally lost...And everyone seemed hyper-er than usual.

Thinking about band, it reminds me about how weird some other ppl in band are...The other 2 t-bone players are starting to make me question at least 1 of theirs sexuality, even though he has a girlfriend. He makes the other one kinda uncomfortable...but it's funny. Last week...he was like rubbing the other guys thighs...and then putting his arm around his shoulders. And he got all mad because the he wouldn't hug him. Band is starting to get interesting....in the least. It's kinda scary.

I think that's the longest entry I've ever posted...*gasp*

[jir]

10 more minutes until I leave for the LTJ concert! The only things that suck, are that they probably aren't going to play 1st, I don't like Allister and Hidden in Plain View, and my auction.... Grrr. But I still need to steal LTJ.

I'm going to clean out my tack box, find the duct tape, get some leashes/collars, and some big bags.

[jir]

I just sliced my hand up....Mom's stupid printer kept jamming or saying it was out of paper, when it wasn't. So, I had to put my hand in it a few times, and now my hand is sliced up. It won't fucking print my pictures. I'm seriously gonna smash it. I scared Angel a few times because I started punching it...Good thing mom's not here, she'd be mad. I left a paper in there for her to deal with. She can fix it. Gah.

btw...2 days until Less Than Jake! I'm so excited! But in some reviews I read, I'm not sure if Buddy was at a few...Maybe he was, and I just have a hard time understanding ppl. I'd cry if Buddy wasn't there. Even though I love the rest of LTJ too, its not the same without Buddy.

[jir]

Well...today was sorta interesting, at least it might have been. I can't really remember. I had guitar lessons, and it was okay...I'm doing even more horrible on this song than I was before. After, we went to JC Penny to get a shirt for my concert tomorrow, and a skirt. I kept forgetting all day that it was April 5th. It's the 11 year anniversary of Kurt Cobain's death, and 3 year anniversary of Layne Staley's. They were both AMAZING. They died too young....And I still hate that I feel they could have been saved. I'm not even going to go into that though. I'll just get pissed off and go on a killing spree in Seattle.

Kurt Donald Cobain
February 20, 1967 - April 5, 1994

Screw the song lyric titles for now...I'm so happy again! I'm watching the VH1 Storytellers Green Day right now, and they said they'd play everysong off of American Idiot! EVEN MY FAVORITE ONE THEY ARE STILL DOING! It's like 9 minutes long, and called Homecoming. Mikey and Tre sings in it! And they did! THEY ACTUALLY PUT THE CAMERAS ON MY MIKEY! YAY!

[jir]

ps: Dad is bugging me...GRRRR! He woke me up at 8 o' fucking clock in the morning and said that it was "late". I almost killed him. And he's threatening to do it again. If he does, there won't be a computer here anymore, or a certain Madden 2005 Limited Edition videogame anymore.

I'm so happy! I got Buddy lj icons! I <3 them. Dad n Brenda's neighbor Mark gave me some stuff for Sims 2 (special stuff), and crap. I've been playing that...I made Buddy. He had a baby with some lady I made. I love Buddy...

I swear I'm not going to ramble about Buddy anymore...*crossed fingers*

[jir]

I'm so friggen happy! I found LTJ slash! I think Vinnie (the drummer) loves Buddy. He has a account somewhere with pics that he's takin. A majority happens to be Buddy...^_^ I LOVE YOU VINNIE! But anyways, I found 8 LTJ fanfics, and the majority is probably slash which = happy me. As of now, I really don't care what the pairings are. I hope there's a horseback-riding Clex slash writer out there somewhere...

[jir]

I won Spider Solitaire at the Difficult level for the first time! I'm so friggen happy! I really have no reason to be happy, but today I am. It happened right after band. Weird.

[jir]

Gah...I might get strep throat. I don't have a sore throat or anything now, but Ben has it. Grrr. It's not like I was that close to him, so it shouldn't be a problem. Poor ben...

[jir]

Some people really need to learn the meaning of the word "free". I'm trying to find a source for the Less Than Jake songs I can't get on WinMX for free...And they all charge, claiming their music is free.

[jir]

I have no idea why I'm posting. I'm extremely bored, and don't really have anything to say. I did brought my trombone home today, and I really suck. I almost threw the thing a few times b/c I got so mad at myself. And for the first time in 3 years of playing trombone I actually am okay with a girl trombone player...For some reason I had something against the other ones, and I have no idea why. I don't mind the guys, b/c I feel bad that they have to sit next to me and listen to me. I just realized that I was listening to Loretta Lynn. Officially the rest of this post is goint to be completely random. I wouldn't even bother reading this any further, as if anyone was actually reading. It's gonna get really dumb. I suck at writing, really. I didn't finish my History Thematic essay yet...And I don't plan on doing it until tomorrow. I miss my Sioux pony. I can't wait to find my Edgar Allen Pony. Now I'm listening to the Ramones...wierd. OMG there's a new Appaloosa breyer model! It's so cute! I'm obsessing over a Less Than Jake song right now...I need to stop. There isn't even any horn in it! That's so sad! Poor Buddy! I think he sings in a cover of a Grease song. That song is kinda slashy too. That reminds me of my pics of him playing guitar on stage...yum. I miss my Candy pony. I can't wait until the end of this week. School sucks, and the LTJ tickets aren't going on sale until then. I almost hugged a kid today cuz he had something less than jake. Too many people like Green Day now...The concert might suck, even though it's Green Day. And they have the drunken pink bunny. LTJ has the drunken Mr Skull. Gah, I'm listening to Phantom of the Opera again...And I still can't get the song I want. This song has a scary part, it makes me jump. It's got like crescendo on the voice part and a forte piano on the low brass section and it scares me. And it reminds me of Beauty and the Beast. I might stop watching Lost, I am so pissed of at something in it. Namely Sayid. And I don't care how much I love Dom right now. That went too far. At least it's not Charlie/Shannon.

Rambling finished...Rambling is fun, I should do it more often, yeah right...
