This is going to basically be a million pictures thrown together in absolutely no order just of memories and things I miss. I don't know what exactly gave me the urge to do this (although, I don't doubt that your entry, however odd that seems, influenced this Kasey), but Monica and I were talking about a picture from Jeff's birthday party and I ended up flipping through pictures and had an urge to share them. So here we go. Explanations/rants/thoughts are all below each picture.
I hiked through the rain forest with my mother to this castle- thing while we were in Puerto Rico (she's actually still there). This was out one of the windows of the castle thing.
One of the most fun nights I've had this year. I will never forget the looks on Lauren and Jeff's faces when I showed up or how the only reason we told Allie I was going to show was because she was going to get mad at Drew for making her late. Lauren kicking my ass at flip cup. Monica kicking my ass at beer pong. Me and Drew dominating the table. Tim being the pizza bitch. Hiding beer caps in Jeff's mother's shoes. Good fucking times. I just found this picture. It was hidden in some folder somewhere. I zoomed it and I think it's adorable.
Pimpin' in New Jersey? Well, not really. Same night as above. I adore both these girls, but unfortunately don't get to see or talk to either of them near often enough.
I miss being on stage with Streetlight (it's been a while). Especially with the original line-up from live shows. Jamie Egan, Dan Ross, Josh Ansley. Those guys were amazing. Not that Chris and Delano aren't, I just miss those other guys. I'm excited for SM to go on tour again.
Speaking of SM touring and stalking them. C-Eh-N-Eh-D-Eh! This is Drew and I playing on the vibrating bed at the hotel at which we stayed after the SM show in Montreal. This was a really, really fun weekend. Despite all the drama of me and Sam, she was good times and hanging out with Drew and Allie is always a good time. Drinking with the band before the show and having Soprano pretty drunk by the time he hit the stage was funny and hanging out with the band in the pit during Big D was quite amusing. "Hey guys! do you want a brownie? I baked them myself. I think I fucked them up though. They're kind of shitty."
If I'm discussing the show in Montreal, obviously I am obligated to post the picture of Jamie playing into a flying penis. Allie refused to take this picture, so I took her camera and ran over, then tapped Jamie on the shoulder and pointed out to him that he was playing into a giant, flying penis. He was speechless.
I miss doing incredibly stupid- but hilarious things at Streetlight shows. The horn section stopped playing because they were laughing so hard. Fucking priceless. "Do you by any chance have point/counterpoint in there?"
I miss ASOB. Yes, I know, I saw them like a month ago and I'm seeing them again Friday. I still miss them. Fuck you. j/k. *Looks at MySpace* No, seriously, fuck you.
I miss the motherfucking Movielife. Oh, how I adored them. This is from the show that Brandon and Vinnie did at the downtown when Northstar cancelled that sold out show. I still get chills when I listen to the mp3s of them doing "Hey" and "Kelly Song". I actually got chills just typing that. I'm such a loser. I can live with I am the Avalanche and Nightmare of You, but they both need to put their albums out SOON.
Speaking of bands I miss. I miss the Benefits. They were so good and so much fun. It also didn't hurt that Heather was easy on the eyes... *ahem* They were an excuse for me to trek to Syracuse and see Chris and Sam.
Speaking of Sam. I miss people doing adorably lame/cute things for me...and me being an asshole and blowing them off. *SIGH*
This goes with one above it. I think one of my utmost favorite things is when I get mail. It's awesome. This was like the highlight of my month...
I miss my Grandma. It's funny, because when I'm home I feel like it's a chore to go visit her, but when I'm there, the time flies. She's the most sane person in my family and probably the only reason I stayed sane while I was in Puerto Rico.
Speaking of Puerto Rico. This is the beach that we went to from the villa we were staying in in PR. On the beach there was a little beach hut where you could get food and drinks, me, my mother, my father, my uncle, and my grandma...and like one other group of three or four people about a hundred feet from us and that was it. It was kind of like our own private beach. I sat, sipped margheritas, and listening to Zox, Sublime, and Bob Marley & the Wailers.
One of the days I was down there, we went and played in a rain forest (obviously since I said that earlier up there about the window picture). I had a blast. Some of my family wasn't so happy to be there and were frustrated by the end of the day, but I've learned to kind of tune them out. My grandmother, my mother, and I all had a great time. It's one of those experiences that you kind of have to be there to appreciate. The pictures can't really completely do it justice.
This is a snail that was hanging out on the floor in the rain forest. I think the picture came out really, really cool. It's actually the my desktop background right now.
Post card much?
I miss dinners at our apartment. They were always good times, even if I ended up cooking when I wasn't supposed to. haha. I also miss my Cornellians. Even though we're not all gone yet, I have a feeling I'm not going to see a lot of them before they leave because we're all really busy (obviously I'm crazy busy studying right now). I think the next few pictures will be dedicated to my Cornell kiddies.
The first dinner out our apartment. Good times.
Jenny! Omg, I adore this girl. I have no clue why I didn't hang out with her until the last day of the fucking semester. Now she's an hour north of Albany. I'm in Ithaca. And very soon she'll be in Costa Rica for the summer. *SIGH*
If we're discussing Cornell kids, it's obligatory that I post the Halloween picture of mike, brian, and me. Oh man.
Christina. *SIGH* I love this girl. I didn't see her near enough this semester because we were both kind of up to our own things. I think she left for Vancouver yesterday=( Edit: I was wrong, she was still here and she called me tonight to say goodbye, but I had to go out and meet Ayesha for something anyway, so I drove Ayesha home and dropped by and said goodbye to her. *SIGH* I hate saying goodbye. I don't say it actually. Rarely. I said goodnight, have a safe trip, and i'll talk to you soon. that's what i do. i'm strange. i adore this girl. i'm glad i got to see her before i left.
Nicole and Trevor. Nicole I barely saw at all this semester when I used to see her like every other day last year. She's been really busy this year and I don't live thirty seconds from her like I used to. She's probably back in Puerto Rico by now, either that or will go without me seeing her. Edit: I was wrong on Nicole too. When I went to see Christina, she was there, so I got to hang out with her, Ayesha, and Sasha for a little bit. I hate that we need an occasion to have these stupid, sit-around and talk nights. Last year they were every night because we lived ten feet apart. Now it's only when we know we're going to be half a world apart come the next day. It's sad. *SIGH* It's amazing how these people i've known for barely two years have come to mean so much to me. Trev is the man. We've been able to get together and road trip for shows and stuff pretty often and I seem to run into him on campus a lot. I'm living with him next year and he's the man. I'll see him before he head back to NorCal cause he has to move some stuff down here to the apartment before he leaves.
I miss Brian. Goddamnit. I never see that kid and when I do either one of us is smashed and we're just running into each other (slope day and halloween) or one of us is in a huge rush to get somewhere (usually me running to personality- no, i don't know why I was ever in a rush to get to that class). Oh, and I hate mike. What a fucker. LOL. I haven't seen that prick since, um, yesterday? He hasn't been around all day (for those who don't know, I live with Mike- and next year it will be Myself, Trevor, and Mike in this apartment).
I miss...the 1920's? um, and...dating Christina? hahaha, this came up tonight while i was with christina. we had a good laugh.
Oh man. I miss random "water and whatever the fuck else we can find to throw at each other" fights on the townhouse quads. This was the night before finals started last year spring semester. Obviously, this is what Ivy Leaguers do the night before finals.
This is from the same night as the one above it. This is just priceless. Trev's bucket is filled with water. Ayesha somehow convinced him to look into it and while he did, she poured her pitcher on him...then ran away. She got the worst of it in the end though since obviously Trev had more water. I miss Ayesha, but I'll see her at noon tomorrow cause we're both taking the same final. Hopefully she'll be down for grabbing lunch with me.
I miss...um...being gay? No, really I miss people owing me milkshakes. Oh wait, I do believe that both Allie/Monica and Mike/Angie still owe me a milk shake. hahaha Good times.
I miss Ryan playing solo acoustic concerts for me in the lounge until all hours of the night.
Jeff: "So, wait, what was that stuff?" Um, no comment.
I miss random congregations in my apartment. I do not, however, miss jeff on my lap.
These are three of my favorite people EVER.
I miss Anton...even if he likes men...actually, especially because he likes men=) On that note, despite a lack of scanned pictures of them, I miss Julie and Clara =( Julie, we should get together sometime over the summer since you'll be in Cuse and I'll be here. Clara, I hope you're okay and things are good with the boy. I haven't talked to you in so damn long and I'm sure now's not the time to get in touch. If you have time, drop me a line. I miss Christine too, but she won't see this. We said we'd get together everytime we ran into each other this semester year, and then we never did. We suck, but I still adore her.
I miss Monica (who is now on her way to Italy for a couple weeks). I do not miss the fact that she looks better in my hat than I do. And I miss RANDOM trips down to Jersey. I do not miss getting sick in hotel rooms in new jersey. i do miss not being made fun of for getting sick in the hotel room in jersey. i miss amazing friends who do amazing things like drive your dumb, sick, hungover ass home from new jersey. ( lauren= type amazing)
I miss doing RANDOM things in New Jersey. No, don't ask. I don't know either.
I miss my sister. She really is one of my best friends in the world. In the last couple months I've probably spent almost half the time I've been in NYC with her. Don't mind my hair in this picture. She was the first one to tell me then that it needed to be cut, and actually recently too.
This goes with the one above it. Danielle=Type Awesome.
Speaking of missing best friends. This girl is amazing. I called her to ask her a favor while i was in Puerto Rico, and before I could even tell her what I wanted, she offered to pick me up at the airport. I'm excited to go out with her and her friends on saturday for her birthday. This picture was also taken in St. Thomas, which I was reminiscing about with Monica earlier.
Oddly enough, considering how much I didn't like Michelle when I was dating Sammi, I miss her. She was always a good time and always was happy to see me. I haven't seen or talked to her since New Year's Eve (when this was taken), but I think I get to see her Saturday.
Talking about friends. I miss Meagan and wish we were better at catching each other at times when the other can talk...I got to see her last weekend which was good. Hopefully I'll get to catch her while i'm home between this semester and summer session, but who knows. She seems to have been really busy while I was home, so I don't know her deal.
No matter what I say, I really do miss hanging out with him.
I miss High School. Yes, I said it. I miss Molloy...
I miss when my sister and I used to go to shows together all the time. I do not miss her stealing my CXXII hoodie. I also do not miss the blue/green hair or the liberty spikes.
Oddly enough, I miss the downtown.
And, we'll end with this. Since I'm spending my summer in Ithaca, I already miss the beach...
