OMG, Chad decided to update! Call the newspapers! Anyways, it has been an interested semester so far. I've figured out that I don't want to goto school this summer. I'm officially burned out beyond burned out. I hate business courses, but are kinda interested in computer courses. Too bad I haven't had a lot of them, cause of business prereqs. I just found out the other day that I have to have a B average or I pay almost 300 dollars a year more on insurance on just liability. YAY! That's exactly what I needed....more pressure from my fucking dad to have good grades. I have a 2.7 and he's expecting me to pull it up after another month to a 3.0 so that my insurance will go down. I've got a little news for him, it's probably not gonna happen. So i'm probably gonna end up writing him a check.
So last weekend I went to 2 concerts and visited Jeremy, Colie, and Brett's new house. I must say, it was a fun weekend. On Friday, I went to see Avenged Sevenfold with Coheed and Cambria. Coheed was better than I expeced, but his voice is hard to get used to. Avenged put on a great show as usual, but I expected them to play more songs than they did. Atleast they played Seize the Day(the next single). The mosh pit was pretty crazy. After the show, I was planning on getting a shirt, but there were a shitload of people waiting, so I decided against that. We stayed at Heather's apartment in Birminham that night. Colie and I were really tired and we would've probably died if we didn't. She has a nice apartment in a nice part of town. So the next day, I went to Alex City and worked on my research paper some and spent a little time with my parents. Then I went to J,C, and B's apartment and then we went to the Taproot show at Off the Wagon. That was a small ass place. The venue would only hold 248 people safely. So Heather got sick after the first band started playing, so she left us there and we had to get a ride home. So Colie and I decided to drink a good bit that night before Taproot made it on stage. We were both pretty drunk by that time. From Satellite was first on stage. They were pretty good. Then came Evan's Blue. I liked them more. I need to download their cd's to see how it sounds there, cause sometimes concerts just don't cut it on the sound quality. Taproot finally made it on at about 11. They played a fucking awesome show. I didn't expect them to play as many older songs as they did. The singer even got in the crowd and grabbed me on the shoulder and nodded his head to start moshing. It was fucking awesome. I love small venue shows, cause the bands get more involved with the crowd. Oh yeah, before Taproot came on, we met a girl that me and Colie went to high school with. I forgot her name, dammit. Anyways, we talked to her for a little while. It was Melissa Wallace's friend. That was pretty neat. So after the show, we were gonna have to wait an hour for Colie's buddy to get off work, but Brett and Leigh came and got us instead. By that time, we were sobering up a bit. So that weekend was awesome.
Now the semester is about to end and I will be going to the beach at the beginning of June. It's gonna be a lot of fun. I know have left a lot of stuff out, but I will try to write about some of that stuff later.. so long for now
