im my own biggest fan.
i saw some nofx video on youtube playing in chile in front of thousands of kids. the crowd was electric. people were climbing down the balcony and jumping into the crowd. somehow watching this video gave me the chills. i know ive played in front of alot of people before, some crowds have been pretty on fire, but it is i guess just a dream to make that a regular way of life. i haven't cried in three years, and i think im about due. i gotta learn how to cry again.

Revenge
I thought about it over the weekend. I thought about what I would say to them, more importantly what would I say to her? It took a few hours of my thoughts, and I couldn't think of anything new. Just some things i wrote a while back. It seems like I don't care about it at all. I mean, i do, at least i think i do. I just don't want to say something Ive been storing up since high-school. I have a problem with it. Its so obvious, but its like i can't figure out any words that i could potentially tell her about it. I don't really give a damn about the whole situation. I just don't want hear from them ever. And I want to forget about her. She didn't deserve my love.

Orphans.
im not going as an SM. it would be better to wait. i havent posted anything for a while. but i think its time to.
ive been dreaming the past couple of nights. its really sad cause theyre the types of dreams where i wish that they would have actually happened, and i woke up to a hard reality.
in one dream i was working at a camp, and the girl i loved came to visit me. i laid down on the bed, and there in the cabin she was standing looking at me with sad, wet eyes. she started shaking a little and said "how can i help you to move on?". in the dream i didn't care, i didnt care at all.
when i remember this dream i think about the importance of moving on. things didn't work out between us, and since i invested so much of myself into her, it makes it not only hard on my life, but this dream points out that it takes its toll on hers. i never really thought about it that way, but it could be true i guess.
