Once again I'm going through my friends cycle. I used to be very upset when this happened but now it has become so rountine it hardly bothers me anymore. I've yet to come to a conclusion of why this always happens but I have come to a few theories. One, i have yet to find anyone that is remotely similar (besides Bri) to the way I am, music-wise, and just personality wise. Secondly, my tolerance for people that aren't exactly like me is extremely...well, low. Of course these are probably all my fault and I seem completely shallow but oh well, this is how I am. I know one day I will find an amazing best friend and all will be right in the world!
On another note, yet kind of the same one, I am going back into one of my reading crazes. Right now I'm reading three books, although two of them are for school. Even though they are required reading I still love the books. The books are called "The Things They Carried" by Tim O'Brien, and "Girl in Hyacinth Blue". Both books are completely different than what I had originally expected, but that's a good thing for sure. The other book I'm reading is named "Skinny Dip" by Carl Hiassen. I really do like the books he writes because they're light and funny, but they also have a lot of information and character development packed into them. I also just finished a book entitled "Last of the Breed" (I think) which is about a Native American Air Force Pilot that gets shot down in the Soviet Union and escapes from one of their prisons. The whole book is about him running away through Siberia, trying to cross the Bering Straight in order to return to his beloved USA. The book is all about him making use of the land and how he survives as a one man show. It's very interesting, my dad gave it to me telling me it was one of the best books he's ever read but I definitely have read better. It's good nonetheless.
Eric and I are still "dating" but I don't know where that's going to go. I can't get Brandon out of my head, Eric just doesn't compare. I know Brandon is a thousand miles away and it will never work out now, but I don't think it's fair to either of them if I go out with Eric. Brandon will invariably hear about and be hurt and forget about me, and Eric just isn't number one in my head. Also, Eric is just way too macho for me, I need a fun-loving funny guy. Oh well, we'll see how things go.
OOHOHOHOHOHOH
and the biggest news of all that I almost forgot!!!
IAMX IS COMING NOVEMBER 9TH.
I can't fucking believe it. The man, Chris Corner, that I have been obsessing over for the past 8 months is coming. I'm so excited. I really hope it's not an 18+ or a 21+ show. I mean, that won't stop me from getting in but it will definitely be a bump in the road.
Lastly, Ryan is leaving for FSU this Saturday. I have mixed emotions for it. I really will miss him and going to concerts with him and his sly sense of humor but when I don't see him for a few months like this summer, I'm never dying to see him. I don't know why I never am, I thoroughly enjoy his company and love him to death. I guess it's just understood that I will see him again. Oh well, it just kinda sucks :(.
