Alright so of course it was another day of chiropractic, this time I went to room 3 since room 1 was occupied by someone else. In that room there was this bed thing that has like a ball under there that moves up and down on your back. So I lay on the bed and the ball is like rolling up and down. He said that it’s supposed to space out the spine. Weird but okay, it felt good, I was falling asleep as usual. As always I’m always the last one to finish. So then we headed to the store. I bought like four bags of those Mother’s Cookies. I don’t know why but they got me hooked on it. So we get home and I’m bored as usual, nothing like watching television when you have nothing to do. Afterwards I get a call from my friends Halima and Sobuon. They came over and talked for hours I suppose, who know. We order some stuff online and then decided to go out to eat. We went to Denny’s; it was simple, since we were telling them about our summer and how we went to Denny’s with FTSK. It was one of the quickest decisions to going out to eat. So there we continued on with our summer conversation and plans for the rest of summer. The waitress girl messed up my order but oh wells. They dropped us off and we called it a night. I have nothing more to do but sleep.

last night was horrible
Alright, so yesterday we waited forever just for them to get her to take us to work. My sister came by with the van she just bought, and the dealer pulled a fast one on her. So she had to take it back to get the right one. So then we hopped in the car with Linda and headed for work. We were like 3 minutes late, no biggy I suppose. It was horrible; it was an Indian engagement party. Damn it was all out, they wasted a lot of money that’s all I can say. I had to hand pass hor dourves. It was horrible. My wrist was all cramped up and everything. They didn’t even eat like most of it. I hate this party so much. The serving of the entrĂ©e was even worst. No one had a place card of what meal they were going to eat. Every one was rude also. I hate rude people at big party. But oh wells, I just hope they don’t have their wedding reception or whatever here, their hassle. So yeah, got off at 1:30am and couldn’t wait to hit the bed, especially since I’m in so much pain. One of the worst work day ever. So now I’m just looking forward to relaxing and watching television.

my dad just got a new what???
So waking up this morning felt a little different, I don’t know why. Maybe it was the fact that I had to go to work and no means of transportation to take me there. I was relying on my dad to take us to work. So it turns out that my brother and my dad is working on his van since it likes to overheat a lot lately. We did have that van for about 11 year. It’s the same age as my little sister. But my dad really likes that car and doesn’t want to give it away or anything, he still wants it for little uses, like going to the store or near by places. So I guess that’s a good thing also. So we we’re getting ready right now, and there’s no sign of them finishing anytime soon, my dad said my sister is going to take us to work, but she’s in San Bernardino. She’s buying a car. Turns out she’s getting a new van for my dad. We’ll I’m going down stairs to go wait for her to come, since it’s almost time for work and there’s no sign yet. I’ll be back out early Sunday morning.

third session: something new
We went to the chiropractor again, last one for the week. So today was the same routine, except without the ice pack. So it felt a little weird, without it being cold or numb in some weird way. But after that we just went back home, like we normally do. This time I was able to take a nap, I forgot what time it was though, but it was a good nap. Now I’m watching television. Tomorrow I have work at five, so I think I might get some sleep in early even though I’m working late. I want a lot of energy since I don’t really have much and my bones are aching so it isn’t that good to not have a lot of energy. Alright, more updating soon.

second session: no big deal
Ok so the doctor told us yesterday to come in today, and that’s exactly what we’re doing. Again I’m in the room 1 and laying flat on my back while he places those tabs on my upper back and neck. The ice pack and I’m back to falling asleep. I can’t help it, we go in the morning, and this machine thing is making me relaxed. I always wake back up before the timer goes off or him coming in, so no big deal, especially when he just tells me to relax anyways. So I’m home and I’m trying to go back to reading. It’s very hard for me to read, because I was never really interested in reading, I was at one point in my life, but I got passed those years ago. So I’m trying my best to get back into reading, since I will be doing a lot of that for school. Might as well get used to it now right?

first session: into the wild
Alright this morning, we went to the chiropractor, the very first session. We waited a bit then he called us in, I was in room 1, my sister in room 2 and my mom in room 3. For me, he check my back again and had me lie down on my stomach, and he put these tab things on my upper back and neck, he turned it on and then it like vibrates a little, it sort of feels like pinching but not really. He also placed an ice pack on it, so that it could be cold. I got used to it quick, because I was already feeling comfortable and falling asleep. It’s like about 30 minute sessions. So after I was done he cracked my neck and I was done for the day. Easy, peasy, lemon, squeezy! Haha. Now where home and what am I to do? I don’t really have much to do anymore, I just look forward to chiropractic, not that i’m looking forward for it, is just that that’s the only thing I have going for me now. I’m reading Into the Wild now. We saw the movie not to long ago and I just want to see if it’s just as good or better. So I guess I’m off to either reading or just watching television. Goodnight!

wasted days, wasted away
So yesterday was the worst day I could ever imagine, ever time I would say that this is the worst day ever, yesterday has by far changed that. Every chance I have to think, that moment just pops back into my head. I just can’t get over it. It was my first car accident and I had to be in the driver seat. It just couldn’t get any worst. I’m trying not to think about it, but it’s kind of hard not to. Well today just consisted of watching a lot of television, especially since there’s not much to do and no where to go. But it’s alright it’ll just be like any other day. I guess this just means I’m back to watching television, until there’s something else to do, not possible, but oh well.

summer bummer
Oh man I’m so pissed off. Like what the fuck just happened? I can't believe it happened! I just got into a car accident. The man was such an asshole! How the fuck could he not see that the street lights were broken?! I'm just extremely pissed; I had my mom in the car with us also, since I had to take her to the optometrist. So I exit and I had to make a left turn so I stayed in the middle lane because I needed to turn right afterwards. So since the streetlights were broken we had to treat it like a four way stop. So it’s my turn to go and as I turn this asshole just comes out of nowhere, since he did not stop and he was going so freaken damn fast. He broke my rear view mirror and messed up my front. Lucky there's no damage to the engine and that the airbags didn't go off because I would have hated it. So we were still in the middle of the streets and no one wanted to stop for me to pull over to the side. A lady came out of her car to see if we were all ok and gave us her name and number and told us that she would be our witness. It was so lame; the steering wheel was so stiff I took forever to pull over to the side. We sat there forever waiting for the cops to arrive. The paramedics came and asked if we needed to go to the hospital, but we weren't badly injured though, so we didn't go. Then we called my dad so that he can come over, help with this problem and take us home. When a cop finally arrived it wasn't the right one and we had to wait for another one since it wasn't their city police. It’s so lame. Like can't you just get our information and then pass it on to the other one. My dad finally arrives and so does the other cop. So we sat there while he took down our information and asked us a bunch of questions, he was alright, but the other guy just pissed me off, like he was siding with the asshole. Then he asked if we needed a tow truck, which we did, my dad wanted to take the car to the house, so the police said that it would be an extra $100. He told me to leave the car keys on the dashboard and so I did. As soon as we got into my dad’s car to leave the tow truck arrives. We get home and my parents are trying to contact a lawyer and I’m just so freaken stressed out and pissed. Finally the tow truck arrives with the car, total cost $175. God damn! Just to bring the car from 10minutes to my house. He was like it would have been cheaper if we called and not the police, like what the fuck are the difference? I would have called but I don’t have a tow’s number.
So we missed my mom’s appointment. I also had an appointment at 3pm. But the lawyers came around 1 or 2 and getting our information and things of that sort. Finally we had to go to the chiropractor. So by then it was 3pm and I missed my appointment as well. So we get to the chiropractor and we had to fill out more paper work, tell the whole story all over and then he examines us. My back is just killing me! I just hated the fact that he said he’s going to have to see us 3 maybe 4 times a week. Not the most exciting thing to hear. So now we’re home, the beginning of summer without a car. How much does that sucks?!?
warped tour ventura
Alright, so we had a good start heading out to
It was a long walk to the end of the line. After standing there for a bit Jaimie and Amanda finally purchases their ticket and gets in line with us. We just started talking about random things and The Maine. It was so crazy, cause we were just saying that we really wanted to see Kennedy but John O is going to be there too, and that we’re just going to be making fun of John O, like not noticing him or what not, and out of no where, there comes John O and Kennedy walking with sign of when their set is. How awful, lucky John O didn’t hear us, but we did say HI to Kennedy. All of a sudden we noticed that we were behind the stage where Farewell was about to play. It was crazy; I didn’t want to miss their set again, so I really wanted the line to move already. So we’re just like don’t start yet! But then the line finally moves, of course, very slowly. So we get in and make our way to the Skate Ramp Stage. We passed by Highway 1 stage and Street Dogs were playing and they were very good. So we make it there and they haven’t went on yet, so we went to the back area, sort of, and just stood there. Kevin noticed and came to talk to us, Wil came too to say HI and stuff, and now their about to go on. We headed for the crowd, and there we met Garrett, he’s just so adorable! We took a picture with him and then watched Farewell.
We went a bit closer in the crowd and I turned around and saw
Afterwards we just went back to sitting around then we noticed someone, at first I thought it was William, but I was wrong, everyone just looked like everyone all of a sudden, but it was still someone I wanted to see, so we caught up to Derek from Mayday Parade and he was on the phone, lucky it was a short conversation so we got to talking and picture taking. Of course everyone we meet at Warped Tour is super nice.
So after that, we were about on our way to go back and watch some more bands. So we were heading out until we saw Ryland from Cobra Starship. He’s so adorable, nice and tall. We so forgot to ask him for a picture with Guy Ripley. I’m sad now. We get out from the Hurley stage side and I see Brian from
After that we were really out of there. Jaimie want to go see her girls from the Oreskaband and me and Kena decided to go see Greeley Estates. But first we needed to go take our picture with Jeff from Farewell since he was looking so adorable.
Then we made it to the Hurley stage. I just love
Afterwards we decided that we were going to go watch Mayday Parade. So on our way back to the Hurley Stage, since that’s where Mayday Parade was going to play we say that The Maine was doing signing and taking pictures. So of course we had to stop for that. It was so adorable and our group picture turned out really good. I love it.
This time we were on our way to see Mayday Parade, until we heard Story of the Year singing. So we just had to stop and listen to them. So while standing there, Wil passed by and we took a picture with him.
Their set was over and we told Kevin we were on our way until we saw Kennedy and Jared. Of course we needed pictures with them. So we stayed there and took a picture with them. They were playing catch with the sour patch kids.
So we finally make it to Mayday Parade set. We watched them play and afterwards went backstage since we had nothing to do until it was time for The Maine to go on. So we just went back to where we were earlier when they were doing the Katy Perry interview and that just happens to be in front of Forever the Sickest Kids bus. We saw a couple of the guys coming in and out. We saw Kyle and he smiled at us, he’s just too cute. We saw so much people back there. We wanted to take a group picture with The Academy Is.. since they were all together, but we didn’t want to bother them, since they were walking in a group and looked determined to get to their destination. So we didn’t stop them. We also saw Family Force 5. But we didn’t stop them either. We just sort of relaxed back there. Then this photographer lady asked me to see the Warped Tour program book, so I let her. She was telling me that she just wanted to know how many of the pictures in there that they used where hers. After a relaxing moment, we decided to head back to the Smartpunk stage since The Maine was about to begin. There were so much people. I love their set, but it wasn’t as good as the first Warped Tour date. John O was much better in
We went to go pay our bills and the guys were leaving. Before they did, we did stopped Caleb, we wanted him to take a picture holding Envy on the Coast sticker, so I asked Caleb, “can you do us something?” and he gave me a huge hug, I was like “not that but ok” then I took a picture with him and we took a picture of him with the sticker.
It was a great night and we made our way to the car. I couldn’t wait to go home. It was a good day, turned bad, and turned great. That’s always good, so now time for some sleep, i have to take my mom to the optometrist in the morning.

warped tour in pomona
The day started with these two lovely boys! So of course I had to get a picture with them.
Then it was a mission to find the blow out of the times when bands were going to perform.
Then we went to take picture with Alex and talked and then he went to go eat.
Then we took pictures with Brian and talked for a bit also, and he as well left and told us that we can hang out at their tent anytime. He said he was thirsty and off to get a drink and check out bands.
So we were on a mission to find Farewell’s tent. It wasn’t that hard after all, well that’s after there’s no where else to go. So we talked to Kevin for a bit and got a picture with him and he went back to sit in the tent, then we got our picture with
So then we went to go meet up with Jaimie, Amanda and Kevin, but got to lazy to stand so we went to the Hurley Tent to hangout. We were waiting for it to be time for The Maine. So then while sitting there I spot Joe and Tim from The Audition, so I was like let’s go take pictures, so me and Kena leaves, but then she gets lost, so I’m standing there with the guys and Tim was like I’ll take the picture, so he does, and apparently I had my eyes closed, and he told me, and Joe was like why are you trying to ruin our pictures, then Tim took another one, then they switched and Joe took a picture of Tim and I.
Then I went back to the Hurley Tent and I was like, why didn’t you come? But yeah, it was funny. Then we were about to leave to walk to the Smartpunk stage until we saw Travis from We the Kings, so we went to take a picture with him.
August Burns Red had just finished their set when we got to the Smartpunk stage, so we got to see Katy Perry, since the Hurley.com stage was right next to the Smartpunk one. Afterwards The Maine was on. It was one of the most interesting and the most fun to watch by far. John O was all up on the PA shaking his ass and everything, it was adorable, I’m sad I didn’t get to record it, it was just so great; you all would have loved it. Then Jaimie left with Kena and I, because we were in dire need of something refreshing to drink, so we went to go buy soda. On our way back we ran into James from the Devil Wears Prada and I just had to take a picture with him.
Then we passed by Katy Perry’s long line for signing, we snapped a couple pictures of her and left. Afterwards we saw that Against Me was doing a signing so I had to stop for that also, Jaimie left to go meet up with Amanda and Kevin. So I got Against Me to sign my ticket and take pictures with me. It made my day as well, they are so nice.
So after that we were going to watch Mayday Parade, on our way there, we stopped for a picture with Jeremy, from The Devil Wears Prada, he’s just too adorable.
So we get back to the Hurley Stage and watched Mayday Parade, Jaimie, Amanda and Kevin had apparently went back stage so they missed the whole set. After Mayday Parade, Jaimie wanted to go watch Say Anything. On our way there we passed by Katy Perry and asked her for a quick picture, she is so nice.
By the time we made it there, we only caught like the last two songs. Then we all decided to just go hangout backstage. We were walking around for a bit, then we decided to go sit. Every one was coming in back and forth to put their stuff away. We just sat their yelling Hi to the boys from The Maine. It was good while it lasted. We later left to go find the guys from The Academy Is… We saw the Butcher sitting and talking to people so we didn’t want to bother him, then we saw Sisky and had a conversation with him and took pictures, what a funny conversation it was, I had to clear it up for everyone to understand.
Then William came, it was so adorable, we got pictures with him as well and then Travis from We the Kings passed by and we all took one with him as well.
Then we all just stood there talking and we saw Gabe from Cobra Starship and Jonathan from Forever the Sickest Kids. We made sure to take pictures with Gabe before he left since he had a bike and the others were taking pictures with Jonathan. Gabe and I did the Cobra for our picture, it’s cute.
Then we waited to take pictures with Jonathan, it was funny, cause Amanda made him spill his drink and he was like, “My Capri Sun!” it was so adorable. Then we got our pictures and that was the last of it. Ahaha.
Afterwards we were waiting for our picture with Matt from Relient K but he was busy talking to people so we didn’t want to bother him. We waited a bit then we saw Mike from The Academy Is... and so we went up to him and told him we were looking for him everywhere, and so we got our pictures with him and went back to Matt.
We were about to leave so we ended up calling Matt, he was cool about it though, so we took pictures and he was making fun of himself, which I thought it was adorable, he was all like I got my hands in my pockets and things of that sort. Then we all said our goodbyes and left.
That’s when we had forgotten that we didn’t go back to Farewell’s tent to say goodbye to them. It was too late, since most of the bands had already left, so we had nothing to do but go home. Oh man, I was happy to be home. As soon as I got into the house, I’m not gonna lie, I was already taking my clothes off walking up the stairs, I was never this happy to take a cold shower every. I stayed in there so long just to cool myself down. But it was such a great and fun night, nothing beats the first day of Warped Tour better than that.

part deux
Then we took pictures with Ryan.
We saw Sal’s girlfriend, Rachael again, she’s real nice. We all talked for a bit until they had to leave, so we took a group picture with Sal and Dan.
We finally caught up with Jer again and took pictures and took a group picture before he had to leave as well.
Oh man today was fun, but in the end it wasn’t, one of the most horrible day ever. I never want that to happen again. We ended up eating at I-HOP. There was a bunch of weird people at that time, they all stared at us. Afterwards we all went home, freeway was insane, not really, just cause of the drunk driver, it was lame.

almost on your coast
I’m not sure when The Almost started playing but they did. After the whole show, we got pictures with Ryan, Alex, Jer, Brian, Sal and Aaron. All in all it was a fun night. Jer went back in to the stage and started dancing; it was the highlight of the day. Brian also gave us lucky coins because, we’re his best friend and he told us this was the best four pictures he’s taken. I confronted him, that he told me that last time, and he was like, that’s why there the best pictures or something like that, so every time we take pictures with him, they always are his favorites. We all became best friends.
Soon security kicked us out, lame, I know.
