i just found a picture of negative echo playing at my high school's homecoming dance. what crap we were. i don't remember much besides our vice principal liked the way i sing. i THINK this was the night jamie didn't ride home with his girlfriend, and rode home with the enemey of his girlfriend at the time. i remember getting mad because somebody made a crack about our smashing pumpkin's cover song, because we did disarm exactly the way it was on the cd (without the whole orchestra backing, just accoustic), and they said we didn't follow their formula. that's one of the few times i almost STARTED a fight. but i held back. i also remember being mad at allana. this was probably after one of the times we broke up. she was being very flirty with me, and then would call me over as she flirted with other guys. grrr. but it's in the past. someone stole our mushroom light that night too. i remember when we got back to willie's house and put everything back in the practice house, we played til like 3am, and had fun.
this was back when the worst we really did was smoke, and maybe once a month smoke pot together. before that and drinking started becoming a problem and ruining what little vibe we had, and mor eimportantly our friendships. i really wish all of our friendships were still as strong as they were then. michael lives in town again, but is usually off doing drugs with joel. brian lives in summerville, i'm assuming with his dad or more likely his girlfriend. jamie still lives in town, but i rarely hear from him (if you read this, call a brother!). willie is about the only person i see on a regular basis anymore.
looking back, i miss the fun times we had. if it weren't for some of my stupid mistakes then, i wouldn't be as proud of the charachter i'm attempting to build now. but yeah, it shall be a road ahead of me.
