any where ya meet me guranteed to go down...

Currently Listening to:

- Going Down

OK...I needed to updated because I realized as much as I hated today with a passion...working at rec and then pacsun...the highlight of my day was my very funny moments with jaimee hahaha

Before I explain these funny moments...I'm gonna tell you, that you had to be there because these were priceless moments haha ok...soo

We were at the pool and there was a counselor (name-will not be exposed due to the fact, i dunno who reads this or who stalks me haha)--well she asked a camper--"Do you know where Pool One Is"...but can I try to explain how this went down....It sound more like this " Umm...Like Do YOUo Knowo Where Pooool OoNe Iss?..in this voice that was sooo unbelievably funny, me and jaimee lost it. haha

Next- Still at the pool and there is this little girl in JEANS, A JACKET, NICE EARRINGS, NECKLAcE, ETC....its like extremely humid out and this girl is standing there with all of that and her bag on her just standin there with her arms cross...me and jaimee feel bad so we go over to her and try to talk to her and she wudnt answer us...i kinda creeped her out i guess but...i kept goin back to her and she kept giving me a look...and we later clarified this look as this little hoochy girl is telling me off...she was a little skevy lookin and--she'll be a whore when shes over hahaahaha...we are so mean...but it gets better so that counselor (who will be unnamed)...came over to the girl and we asked her if she knew why she didnt talk and she rambled on about sumthing and all of a sudden she laughed....and i dont mean chuckled and i dont mean giggled...she bursted out into this weird, hyper active, funniest thing in the entire world laugh...and im usually good and holding laughter inside until someone leaves a room or smile but dont let it out just yet...NOOO i didnt...i laughed right back at her and i cudnt control but laughing at her laugh...it was the funniest thing in the entire world...i cudnt breathe...and then jaimee laughed cuz i laughed and i just walked away hysterical...it was soooo funny

Ok so this was the last highlight and probably the most random yet greatest moment of my day....So me and jaimee went to barnes and noble after she almost forgot about a camper (haha jk...) she didnt but she thinks she did anyways!!....we were there late and then we took chris home and then missed the entrance to it so we had to go threw the mall entracne etc...anyways....it was meant to be this way cuz we were by home depot and we were at a stop sign and all of a sudden a girl on one of those big carts was riding ontop of all this stuff while her dad wheeled it....the dad stopped short AND THE GIRL WENT TUMMBLING ACROSS THE KART AND FELL ON THE FLOOR...IT WAS THE GREATEST THING TO EVER EXPERIENCE...I stopped the car and i cudnt help myself...me and jaimee lost it...it was soooo funny...so g-d made sure that all the shit that went down today...was so we cud experience some fucked up funniest shit you never get to see...that shot of the girl falling off that thing...should have been on tape...it was amazing...priceless!

PacSun - $ 7 an hour
One Day At Rec - $50 a Day
Watching a Girl Fall Off A Moving Cart While Her Dad Doesn't Do Anything and Me and Jaimee Stop to Laugh--PRICELESS!!

watch out the yellow ones don't stop...

Hey, Its 2 in the morning and I really want to go to sleep but I can't. And I have just discovered that Elf is on and im sure I'll be up for the rest of it lol. So anyways...I figured I'd update. So pac-sun has taken over my life haha but I really love the job. Everyone is awesome that works there and im getting the hang of it and its cool. I'm working SOO much....im on call 2mro night...then im workin fri,sat,sun,mon and camp orientation is on friday and camp starts monday...its gonna be rough! But i think I can handle it...i hope lol. I'm going to the beach 2mro, I need to write my paper for my last class on thursday (finally)...a lot is going on! Its good being busy...cuz im just lazy most of the time when im not doing anything. So I guess its good but its all gonna catch up to me...i'm gonna be exhausted i know it...it hit me last week when i worked then went to great adventure then work the next morning...that kicked my ass haha. But i think my body wasnt use to being on the go so much. But its good. I miss morgantown and my friends. I even miss the ones that are home that i never get to see...and i know its been crazy cuz ive been so busy but dont be a stranger too. It sucks a lot when you lose touch with people who were a big part of your life. Its strange how things happen but I do think about all of you!

ahhh one of my favorite elf moments....this place reminds me of santas workshop, except it smells like mushrooms and everybody looks like they want to hurt me! hahah

Anyways...i hope im not working 2mro cuz i rele need to finish my paper and i know im gonna be tired after the beach lol and I really want to go to pac sun and get reefs and some clothes and i cant do that while im working lol. So yeah...thats about it. I am looking foward to my birthday...still dont know wut im doing yet...any ideas?? I can't wait for red bank fireworks and juanitos--love that place. And I'm really excited for summer to truly begin...cuz once camp starts (as much as i am dreding it) it feels like summer.

Ok well i'm gonna go finish watching elf and hopefully get some sleep...but worst comes to worst ill sleep on the beach. lol---be jealous haha

good night

I dare you to tell me to walk through fire. Wear my soul and call me a liar...

Currently Listening to:
Shinedown
- I Dare You

Have you ever been so confused about something that the only thing you can do is try to ignore it. The more you ignore it the more you want to figure out this problem. No matter what you do it just won't ever be resolved. Now say that problem disappears because you finally just ignored it for good. Then one day about a year or two after.... something hits you and you realized that thing you were confused about was never resolved. That thing you could have bet your life you would never forget in a million years just hit you a year or two of forgetting it entirely. Now you may be asking yourself, why is Justin saying that and where the hell is he going with this. If you could resolve something your confused about you would do it, right? Well I mean unless you don't want to but thats just crazy. We all have things in our life that we are confused about and all we want to do is understand or resolve it. So nows your chance, instead of forgetting it ever happened or ignoring it for years....do it now, resolve it now, figure it out now, do what ever you can...so when you look back in a year or two from now and you still never resolved it....you could atleast say you tried.

You know what I think is so weird and this so random but I don't know, I feel everyone does this. Like I was driving home from brookdale and you see a dead animal up ahead on the road, so I say to myself...don't look. Of course the split second you pass it, you have to look! Just like if theres an accident on the side of the road and you don't want to look because what if you see something that can scar you for life like a dead body or someone really hurt but of course we all still look! I don't know what it is, I guess its just like when we watch a movie or a television show, we love to see things blow up or people get hurt for various reasons as entertainment but when it comes to real life...real things still entertain us. Like seeing an accident or road kill on the side of the road. Why are we so fascinated by all of this...it boggles my mind. Its so strange and I don't know if its just me but I'm not gonna lie, I do it all the time. Like if someone says don't look...you have to look! lol. I don't know I guess its just human nature and natural instinct. I think its kinda funny that we do this. I don't know I thought it was kinda of interesting.

Anyways, I don't know but most of you know I write random poems/lyrics etc... just when I have a lot on my mind. And I already have like over 25 of them since I was 14 years old. I think some of them are really good and some of them just suck big time. But I didn't realize how good you can feel by just getting your feelings out through something easy as writing it all out or making a poem into it. You may think I write everything I feel into these blogs, but I don't really. Like serious things that go on in my life or feelings I have inside about things...they go toward those poems and stuff. I have had a lot on my mind lately about the future and its really hard to accept that things won't be the same soon. I'm growing up a lot faster then I ever thought I would. I think I'm growing up more in the mind then in my age. I have such a different perspective on things then most people my age. It kind of sucks sometimes, and it sometimes can just kick me in the ass. Sometimes its a good thing but it can hurt the way things run in my life with the people around me because they aren't on the same path as me yet. I just wish things didn't have to randomly come up out of no where and ruin things that I thought were running smoothly. Its really bittersweet. But I guess in the long run...it may benefit me to some degree but it still seems like I am the only one who gets hurt by things that are out of my contorl. Now how is that fair? Who knows but it really sucks sometimes....and somedays are easier then others. I guess we all go through shit in different ways and one day it will all work out. Time is all that it can take....even if it takes the time of your life, sometimes waiting is the only thing can do....and thats what gets you by.

I'm spinning while falling down...

Currently Listening to:

Hey...
So I got a call back from pac-sun...they called to make sure I'm still interested in the job...so now they are calling references and then they'll let me know during the week. My brookdale class sucks big time...really boring and I can't wait for it to be over. Two nights ago--I was having a shitty night and my bro comes into my room and asked me if I wanted to go to Summer Jam....my mood obviously changed lol...Ofcourse I said yeah! The concert was good...a lot of special guests...it rained a lot---and some parts of the concert I couldn't enjoy it but overall it was a good time. A LOT of special guests (blows any zootopia/jingleball surprise away)...for starters...Janet Jackson,Da Brat and Mariah Carey came out randomly during Jermaine, LL Cool J came out in the middle of Jaime Foxx, Missy Eilliot and 10 other people came out during Busta Rhymes...there were ALOT of people that came out during him lol. But Young Jeezy,T.I., Mary J, Ne-yo were awesome too. There was more but I can't think right now lol. Well that was that...I have a paper to write and I really don't want to.
Anyways, I'll leave you with lyrics to a great band and a great song...

Please don't mind what I'm trying to say cause I'm, I'm being honest
When I tell you that you
You're part of the reason I'm so set on the rest of my life
Being a part of you
You tell me what you think about being open,
About being honest with yourself

Cause things will never be the same.

So I guess I'll see you, see you around
I'm spinning while falling down
Now you know why I'm begging you to stay

Well don't waste time getting to the point, cause I'm, I'm patiently waiting
For your next phone call, your next excuse for losing sleep again
Tell me what you think about being open,
About being honest with yourself

Cause things will never be the same

So I guess I'll see you, see you around
I'm spinning while falling down
Now you know why I'm begging you to stay

Cause I can't stop it now
It's so amazing how
I know I cant, I could never walk away

How can we resolve this now
We let it go, and wonder how
This can ever be the same
Can never be the same

So I guess I'll see you, see you around
I'm spinning while I'm falling down
Now you know why I'm begging you, I'm begging!

Cause I can't stop it now,
It's so amazing how,
I know I cant, I could never walk away.

Please don't mind what I'm trying to say, cause I'm, I'm being honest.
