i am a piece of shit daughter. i think i do more bad than good, and nothing is ever right. i spend too much of my money, i never clean my room, i don't appreaciate anything apparently, and i come home after curfew too often. so now i may be getting my car taken away from me, three days before my birthday. i knew it was going to happen, i could feel it last night. and now my dad will have full access to my car rather than only when i don't need it. i really do appreaciate all i have and all my parents do for me, but i don't think it shows well. warped tour and silver lake was last week. saw the only good bands at warped, the only ones that mattered-chiodos, and alkaline trio. and we also saw coheed and the matches. chiodos and trio were amazing! oh my god fuckin chiodos. ♥ the ride to silver lake was 7 hours. seven hours of nervous anticipation; meeting his entire family. but it ended up being fine, and i had no reason to really be nervous. i talked to his uncle from hawaii more than anyone else, and i really liked him. he's a doctor and has founded three charities, and in the process of another. that amazes me, and i respect so much that he does that. his cousin took us for a boat ride at night which was nice. had a few drinks, and a few rounds of asshole, tourrettes and a good meal of easy mac, and a night on the dock. we water skiied, where mike face planted, sean was just a wobbly mess, and i got too many wedgies. definately fun though. got to fall asleep and wake up next to the only person i'll ever want to see at those times. and that itself was amazing. learned how to play blackjack, AND deal :) sean didn't enjoy it really at all. but i don't mind sitting around the house, just hanging out and talking to his family. we played wii and made s'mores. stayed up and read before bed, and took lots of naps during the day. it was just amazing and i'm so happy mike wanted to share his family and the place with me. he comes home today, and i can't wait to see him.
