Okay...So yesterday I went over to Jacob's house for New Years. When I got there, Jacob, Matt, and Ryan were in the garage "jamming." A little while later, Jen came and that was cool! Since I had a hunch that Matt didn't really want me to be there, I just kinda paid attention to Jen and Jacob, since I really just wanted to hang out with them in the first place. It was pretty fun, I like hanging out with Jen and Jacob, cuz they're the coolest ever!!! And they're really the only two people I can actually get along with for extended periods of time. That's pretty much the best part about last night, hanging out with Jen and Jake. Enough about that...
You will notice that I have about four journal entries (including this one)...My explanation:
The year 2004 was horrible on most aspects and I wish to leave the majority of it behind me. I decided to keep only the entries that were of some importance. In order of most to least recent:
- When Jen and I started talking again after almost two months
- The In Flames, Killswitch Engage, and As I Lay Dying concert recap
- When Jen came to like my kind of music
As soon as LiveJournal lets me, I'm going to start a new account...I don't like this one anymore...

Holy shit do I ever have a fuckload of updating to do!
Okay, since I have updated since like, the 14th, I will just summarize what has been going on!
Well, the last couple weeks have been pure hell. I have had a whole bunch of shit for English and Economics due, and then to top everything off, I have band practices, so I don't have a lot of time for homework on weekends. We got 2 full days of practice in over this past weekend, and we perfected our song, which I'm thinking we might call "Escape" or "Shattered." And it's kind of funny, because the auditions are tomorrow, and we haven't even come up with a name for the song, and we don't have a permanent singer! This is going to be great for us though, people will finally hear our music, and it will just be awesome!
I'm so fucking happy, Jenni and I started talking again last Saturday, but it's just hard talking to her after almost 2 whole months of barely even looking at each other. It feels as though I don't even know what kind of a person she is now. I mean, she's still the same beautiful girl I have always thought of so highly, but from talking to her the past few days, it seems like her personality has changed or something like that. I've missed her so damn much, it hurts, and in all that time of not talking, certain things haven't changed with me. I guess now I know my boundaries, so I can't fuck up again, which, I really hope I don't, because I don't want to screw up my friendship with her again, she's the best thing that ever happened to me, and I would be completely devestated if I lost her for good. All this is kind of weird now, because it's like we just met all over again, but I would still like to think of her as my best friend, because of how close we used to be.
On another note, my birthday is on friday! And I'm having a b-day party/band practice on saturday, and it's awesome, cuz Jenni said she would come! So yeah, that's about all I have to say for right now...Until next time...PEACE!

Bleeding Through - Portrait of the Goddess |

Holy shit man...last night fuckin rocked!!!
(for those of you who don't know what the hell I'm talkin about, I went to the In Flames, As I Lay Dying, and Killswitch Engage concert)
Mike, My sister, and I got to the Cajun House at around 7:00, hoping that the line wouldn't be way too long...Too bad for us, we had no such luck. The line really started moving at around 7:30 when the doors were opened -- it was still light out when we got there, mind you -- when we finally got up to the doors, it was about 8:10, and it was friggen dark! We went inside and found a place to chill, then the show started...this is where it got fun! As I Lay Dying, one of my favorite bands, played first. My sister didn't let me headbang =( damn her. They played 94 Hours, Elegy, Forever, Falling Upon Deaf Ears, Distance Is Darkness, A Thousand Steps, Undefined, and The Pain Of Separation. I tried to study their guitarrists' fingers in some of the songs, to see how they were really played...that didn't work too great, but I think I caught some of the chord positions, so I will mess around with that stuff later on. After their set was over, the three of us went up closer to the stage, it smelled like weed mixed with sweat. Up next was Killswitch Engage, which, I don't really care for, but their lead guitarrist is funnier than hell. He was making fun of some chick that was completely shitfaced not even half way through the show. He introduced In Flames, by saying "Those Swedish meatballs. Those guys are like riff wizards. They like, sit in their rooms, and cast magic spells." and then they played a few more songs. I was in the mosh pit through most of their set, moreso for their only good songs, Fixation on the Darkness, and My Last Serenade. Since I missed their show at Ozzfest last year, I made up for it by going fucking crazy during those two songs. My sister got pissed at me for headbanging so hard, lol. After Killswitch, we went closer to the stage, and chilled over by the bar waiting for In Flames to come on. My sister started to feel sick because she's a little claustrophobic sometimes, so she left to get some air and go take a nap, which was a shame, because she really went to see In Flames. In Flames finally started playing at like 10:50, which, didn't really give Mike and I enough time to hear their entire set...that kind of sucked. They played Episode 666, Cloud Connected, Touch Of Red, Like You Better Dead, Embody the Invisible, and somethin else, while we were there, and as we were leaving they started playing In Search For I. Then we went home...it sucked cuz I wanted to stay to see if they played The Quiet Place, but it was too late, I had to be home at midnight. So yeah, that was pretty much my entire weekend. Today, I got up at like 6:15 and took a shower since I was fuckin filthy from last night. I drank an energy drink, to see if it would help at all, since I was so fuckin tired and all, it didn't do a whole lot. So I have really been tired all day. I got to see Jen for a couple minutes before she went to class, and told her about the concert. I didn't really do much work, other than a test in history, and fixed some stuff on my tech web journal in StRUT...and then, made some test corrections in math. It was strange...Jessica got a better grade on the test than I did...and she now has a higher overall grade...lol. We were both pretty friggen amazed, lol. And yeah, that's all I really did today. I got to talk to Jen at lunch a little bit too =D! But yeah, now here I am...sitting in front of my computer, talking to peoples, and updating my journal! So uhh...maybe I will update later on tonight. If not, I will tomorrow!!! Until then, peace!
I love you Jen!
~Dan
P.S. Damn Jen, I wish you could have gone to the concert, you would have had lots of fun! lol

In Flames - My Sweet Shadow |
] |
Ahh...here I am again...sitting in front of my computer, talking to friends, and listening to music. My life never really changes...
So anyways, Today I gave Jen a mix CD with a bunch or progressive metal bands on it, and she was like "..It's Different.." but she said she liked it, so I'm like "mwahahahaha...I KNEW IT!" lol, cuz I had always told her that she might like it, I just never really got to show her any of it. So yeh, now Jen likes In Flames too, lol *claps for Jen* YAY!
But yeah, anyways, other than Jen starting to listen to my kinda music a little bit lately, nothing new has happened! And I am in a really really good mood today for some reason...So I don't really have much to say cept...I LOVE JEN! lol
SO...I shall update later on tonight...until then...LATERZ!
IN FLAMES - My Sweet Shadow
I'm selling heavenly sketches
A world out of my mind
Ready to explode in purity
To fill the wholes inside
An ever moving stream
With glowing rays of light
Emotions tied to past lies
And I know I should let go
I found a flame in the burnt out ashes... burn out, burn out
Tamed with confidence of a brighter future
Fueled these new shores burn
Dark past lies cold
Shadow, my sweet shadow
To you I look no more
Another dawn collapses
Do I need to be reminded?
A glimpse of my safe home
A path to hide all anger
In circles I catch
A torch carried by the immortal
From depths that I created
In vain ecoes fade
