Waking up past Noon again, Figured out I have no Friends

I've had a busy few days!

So be prepared for a lot of random jibberish and pictures!

First thing is first... OMG I have comments! And not from friends, from people I don't know! (I can only assume...)

When I saw '3 comments' I was like... "Uh oh, hate mail." But amazingly they were both very amusing and encouraging messages.

So thank you!

Next, I went to Grimsby to pick up a mouth guard and I am now choking on a mouth guard because I grind my teeth... yay!

Now the boring news aside...

So Friday, Heather planned some random trip to go to Niagara Falls... it was SO much fun! I made some new friends, and it was like sexy awesome fun times.

We went around to the wax museums and got lost in a hall of mirrors and had many a crotch shots... yay!

I hung out with Paige in the Grimsby drinking coolers, being classy with wine, and playing Busta Groove 2... it was a sweet day.

Now today is like an epic day in my life.

Well this month has been pretty epic. Not only have I seen Valencia live.. but now I've seen Rides Again!

I forgot how much fun it is to go a real rock concert. And it was 19+ (my first 19+ concert where I am actually 19, yay!). It was nice for the doors to not open at 3:30pm, though it was weird being probably the youngest person there. None the less, Rides Again kicks some serious ass and it's fun rocking out!

And they are super NICE guys!

Seriously, Rides Again is probably my top 10 bands.. let's see if I can make a Top 10 Band list... at least Top 10 at the moment. Here it is, in no particular order...

1. Attack in Black

2. Valencia

3. Rides Again

4. Alexisonfire

5. Death Cab for Cutie - one week!

6. Tokyo Police Club

7. Armor for Sleep

8. Cobra Starship

9. Incubus

10. Phantom Planet - on indefinite hiatus =(

Wow that was actually harder than I thought. I'd love to throw Sherwood, Limbeck, Copeland, and tons other on the list, but I'll have to stick with that... And I've seen the bolded ones. Not bad, not bad.

I have half of them at least...

It's actually really strange, I was talking about this with Heather that I saw Rides Again at my high school so many years ago, and yet I didn't listen to music in high school.... Maybe I'd listen to mainstream stuff, but Grimsby really didn't have a music scene.

Then my last year of high school / moving to Toronto my whole life has changed and music quite literally IS my life. I'd die without it, and I even want to base my career off of it.

Crazy isn't it?

So I'm still pretty new to all this concert going stuff. I've only started going since I moved to Toronto (for obvious reasons), and I only wish I got into it sooner.

So now I am sitting here, reflecting on my awesome night, listening to Attack in Black 'Years' vinyl, and choking on my mouthguard. No idea how I am going to sleep with this in.

Tomorrow I need to catch up hardcore on school work, and pick up a vinyl from the post office. I do believe it's The Clash's Combat Rock, yahoo!

I'm also contemplating what is going to happen when Heather has to move away =(

We've been friends for quite a while (ever since I randomly asked to be her friend at The Mission District's MTV thing... so random, haha) and she is definitely one of the people I think fate truly brought us together.

Unfortunately, we've only started REALLY hanging out recently, and it's been a terrible blast. I'm only saying terrible because it's going to make me miss her SO much when she is gone next year =(

But I said I'd visit her, and she'll probably be stuck with me for a week, haha. But I don't know what I am going to do without all this impromptu road trips, fun concert times and 'Whyyyy d you have SOOTHERS?'

I guess all we can do is treasure the moments we have, and just keep living in the moment, enjoying life, and ROCKING ON!
