< a group called The Postal Service...my cuzin Jeff let me listen to a few songs of theirs, and they were good! You should check them out, seriously!
I had a fun weekend at my grandpa's house. the family got together, like we usually do every month. only this time, a lot of people were missing. it felt kinda weird. but i got to spend some time with my cousins who i don't usually see a lot, so that was cool. Jeff didn't have to work (he works at UPS, and he's got some weird work hours, lol) so I got to talk to him and stuff. Yeah, all we really did was listen to music, watch TV and look through old pictures of us from like the 90s....okay, there was this one picture of a girl on a horse, and she had a baseball cap on, and everyone thinks that it's me cuz it looks like me, they say. i have no idea what they see in that pic, but i don't think it looks like me, honestly! i think they just took a random picture of a girl on a horse and thought that it was me, ha ha ha!
Zach and I hung out downstairs a lot. We talked about things like school, and stuff that goes on outside of school, and of course, music. There's a lot of stuff we talked about, that I didn't even know that he knew, and he didn't know that I knew. It was really kind of funny, we would be like, "whoa. you know what that is?!" or something to that effect, you know what I mean. He quit playing football, which surprised me a lot. He said it was cuz his team sucks, but I mean, so does Linden's team and my friends who play still love to play. It's probably cuz he lives in southern california, where football is actually important, ha ha ha. But yeah, it was fun hanging out with Zach, and talking with him. He's like the only person I really talk to when I visit the family, I mean out of all of my cousins.
Gawd, but my 'rents, they drive me crazy!!! I dunno if it's just me, but I get so bugged by them, it's not even funny anymore. I just want to tell them to shut it! Like when we were getting ready to leave, my dad was bitching at me about my grade in honors english, saying like i can do SO much better than that, and that I am making him look 'bad' or whatever, I was just getting so mad at him. And then he yelled at me cuz I wasn't locking the door after I came outside to the garage. And I didn't even know that he wanted me to lock it!!!! AND...I didn't have a freakin' key to that door!!! Omfg, I was so pissed off, you have no idea. I felt like slapping him right in the face. But instead, I just looked at him and said, "Look Dad, I'm sorry for not locking the freaking door, but just because you're in a bad mood doesn't mean you have to take it out on me!" and then I walked about to the front gate that's infront of our driveway and opened it so my mom could pull the car out. Then in the car, my dad was like, "Alyssa, I'm sorry for yelling at you about the door. But you still should get your grade up in english, there is no excuse." So I was feeling a little better about that....and then what does he go ahead and say: "You shouldn't be screwing around in class anyways." OMG! That was very very random, and unnessicary for him to say that, wasn't it?? I mean, come on, that was just wrong.
But yeah.....we got home today around 5:45 and I went and paid Aaron for taking care of the animals. Copper hurt himself again!! We don't know what he did this time, and neither does Aaron or Patty (Aaron's mom). But they said that they found him under the car in the garage, and they got him to come out, but he wasn't walking on one of his legs, and when they tried to get close to him, he's just walk away and get back underneath the car again. Poor guy....So my mom's calling the vet tomm. morning.
The tri-tip dinner is tomorrow night!! Yay I get to work and serve food to people all night long.....ha ha ha. My mom is gonna come help too. hhmmm, my MuZik has changed since I started writing this entry... now tis "Wake Up" by Lostprophets. I luv Lostprophets, they rock my socks. Omg, I got a letter thingy about maybe going over to like France & Italy this summer, through this program...it's really hard to explain how it works, but Ash does it every summer, and she loves it. I think she's the one who had them send it to me....ha ha, she's awesome like that.
I'm going to Scotland on the 15th!!!!! A day before Allie's birthday!!!! I love yah Allie, and I'll have to mail you your present if I don't see you sooner. :-)
My MuZiK has changed again...ha ha, the Lostprophets song ended, and now I'm listening to "Somebody Told Me" by The Killers. I like this song a lot, they remind me of Franz Ferdinand. Which reminds me, if you have their CD, and haven't listened to it much, listen to the song called Micheal. It's interesting.... ha ha ha ha. Depends on how you take the song, I guess. Okay, well I'm gonna go to bed. I'm tierd....
I couldn't stop thinking about you, hoping you miss me as much as I love you.
