Pure.Joy.

Ha, I almost typed "Overlord"

Anywho, I'm sooooo freakin happy right now. I was just on Facebook and Erin Jennings (head of Music Admissions at Converse College) was asking me what my plans were for the fall. Well, I explained sort of the jist of my situation with not being at home anymore and my mom's emotional/mental...breakdown thing with all the verbal/physical abuse. So she asked me if I was still interested in Converse, and if i was, she could probably get me a scholarship. I told her yes, and she talked to the dean (apparently she was like, within walking distance, bc this only took like 5 mins :D) and they said i would get a $5000 scholarship! I was like duuuuude! Then I told her my SAT scores and she said that would be enough to get me in. So all they need now are my official SAT scores and the transcript and I'll be good to go.

I.am.STOKED.

I have never been happier. I may actually get into college this fall and I'm just..omfg. Overjoyed.

:D

Is this the New Year or just another night?
Is this the new fear or just another fright?
Is this the new tear or just another desperation?

Is this the finger or just another fist?
Is this the kingdom or just a hit n' miss?
A misdirection, most in all this desperation

Is this what they call freedom?
Is this what you call pain?
Is this what they call discontented fame?

It'll be a day like this one
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in

I'm singing this one like a broken piece of glass
From broken arms an' broken noses in the back
Is this the New Year or just another desperation?

You're pushing till you're shoving
You bend until you break
Till you stand on the broken fields where our fathers lay

It'll be a day like this one
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in

There's nothing here worth saving,
Is no one here at all?
Is there any net left that could break our fall?

It'll be a day like this one
When the sky falls down and the hungry and poor and deserted are found
Are you discontented? Have you been pushing hard?
Have you been throwing down this broken house of cards?

It'll be a day like this one
When the world caves in
When the world caves in
When the world caves in

Is there nothing left now?
Nothing left to sing
Are there any left who haven't kiss the enemy?
Is this the New Year or just another desperation?

Does justice never find you? Do the wicked never lose?
Is there any honest song to sing besides these blues?

And nothing is okay
Till the world caves in
Till the world caves in
Till the world caves in
Till the world caves in
Till the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in
Until the world caves in

Mint Choclate Chip fo real. Or just plain Chocolate is good with me. :D

I freakin love ice cream =D

I just wrote my mom a letter. 2 pages front and back and then a 3rd only on the front.

O_____O

So I had a really great day today. I had like 12 hours of sleep, which, is really odd. I ate some Fruit Loops (the last of the box actually T__T), showered and watched a lil tv. Cindy (whom I am staying with) allowed me to use her car to drive to Barnes and Noble. Its a big shopping center, where the book store is located, so I decided I might do a little exploring. Its so weird to be somewhere I've never been. There's a lot of traffic compared to NC. Anyways, I spent maybe 45 mins or less in the store, which is really good timing for me. I usually end up staying for hours at a time. But this Barnes and Noble didn't have a Starbucks, so I wasn't as tempted to stay long xD. I bought New Moon, Eclipse, Fell, and the 4th book in the Last Apprentice series. Eclipse is the sequel to New Moon, and New Moon is the sequel to Twilight. YAY BOOKS!

Anywho, after the book store, I went to Best Buy and rocked out on Guitar Hero 3, Guitar Hero Aerosmith, and Rock Band. I'm such an addict. I also went to the piano section and played for a while. I wouldn't of stayed so long if it wasn't for the crowd that gathered T_T it was all good though. One person requested Hey There Deliah like twice. muuahaha so yeah. I was freakisly nervous the entire time and wanted them to go away xD

Overall a great day. I can't wait to read these books. I've already gotten to chapter 8 in New Moon. :D

So I actually ventured outside today with the people I'm staying with today. I had a BLAST. We went to a brand new restaurant called Redstone and nomlicious food. Then, we drove to one part of the city to meet up with some friends of theirs to go to a huge event. It was at this park celebrating the 4th of July a day early. I've never been so close to like, professional fireworks. God, it was amazing! We definetley had the best seats out on the hill and there was this awesome breeze most of the time. Although I despise loud sounds, I was willing to suffer this time xD Just laying there on the hill with literally colored fire above your head was just the best feeling ever. I could feel every explosion and smell the smoke (but not enough to make one cough) in the air. We were only maybe, the length of the 800 building away from where they were lighting them! The sky was quite clear minus the fireworks and smoke and it was all just so picturesque. And tomorrow is going to be even better! I'm like, 30-45 mins away from one of the best places to see fireworks. Even John Legend is going to be there to perform. I only know like, one of his songs, but its nice and meaningful and not full of curse words/talking only of sex, drugs, and girls. So yeah. I'm so uberly excited for that.

Gah, today was just amazing. And I'm eating a mint chocolate chip milkshake right now. And I'll prolly read some of a new book I got called Twilight. Very well known and should be good.

:D :D :D :D :D

I'm pretty sure during all the wagon rides (its not a car, its a wagon) with Squelsy have somehow influenced my taste in music. I looked up Five for Fighting a few minutes ago on playlist.com to add to my playlists on myspace and facebook. I discovered that I pretty much love all their songs. I also added Dark Blue by Jack's Mannequin. I don't even know how I remembered it honestly O__O

Thanks, Kelsea, for being such a brain ninja.

If you could do anything you want tomorrow, what would it be?
