Don’t wear a RUN DMC shirt if you can’t name one of their songs.
Wes Miles of Ra Ra Riot gave me a high-ten last night at the concert! Ra Ra Riot is amazing live.

So my dad’s hemoglobin level went down again, so he’s going to be in the hospital another night, which seriously sucks because I have a 6 am flight tomorrow morning back to Cuse and I won’t get to say bye tomorrow. I have to say it today and I didn’t do such a good job of saying bye last time because like I said, it really gets to me to leave him by himself in the hospital....
I am both extremely creeped out and intrigued by the trailer for Black Swan. Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis are both in it. This has to be incredible.

CONGRATULATIONS, GIRL!
I’m so freaking happy for you, you have no idea! And proud! Take a gazillion pictures, make lots of friends, broaden your horizons, and learn more about yourself! This was meant for you. I’m so glad you get to be apart of such a wonderful thing. Congrats again :)
So the endoscopy is over and thank goodness my dad only has a stomach ulcer. I wish I could go visit him at the hospital right now but the ICU has very strict visiting times and the next visiting time starts at 1:30. Ugh. But he has to spend another night in the hospital tonight and will be discharged tomorrow. I know it’s killing him to be in bed for so long. A big thanks goes to all my...
Hospital
It is currently 12:34 am. This has been a rough day. I’m so tired and I want to sleep but I can’t, knowing that my dad is in the hospital all by himself with an IV in one arm and a blood transfusion happening on the other arm. So instead of sleeping, I’ll vent about my feelings and whatnot here.
This all started yesterday, Monday. My dad is a really busy doctor. He never...
What if one day in the future, it gets decided that the Internet must be shut down? Like, what if the government just decided it was way too destructive to society and they completely took it away from the country…or the whole world? What would that be like? I can’t even imagine it. I can’t imagine a world without the Internet. How would people perform research? I know people can...
I need to see Matt Costa perform at the Bowery Ballroom on November 4th in New York City. But how? How, how, how?! I really don’t want to drive 4 1/2 hours from Syracuse. And he’s going to be in three different cities in Texas later in November, but I can’t fly down for those dates. Arghh, why couldn’t he in be Texas when I was home for the summer?! I need to see him...
There’s a sale at Gap for jeans! Buy one pair and get the other for $20! This may not sound like much of a deal to you but Gap jeans aren’t cheap! Ever! 60 bucks is usually the minimum. Anyway, if you’re a fan of Gap jeans (because they’re super comfortable) like I am, head on over there sooooon. And I get that most people don’t want to pay that much for a pair of...

– “House Fire” by Someone Still Loves You Boris Yeltsin. Insanely beautiful lyrics.
I finally packed stuff up in my car and shipped it off to Syracuse. I put my guitar in there too! I hope it finally gets some use up there. I can’t wait for Maddy to teach me the basics :D

I bought Essie’s “Jazz” color recently and finally put it on today. It came out so pretty! And since I know you love nude shades, I wanted to let you know to check this one out if you don’t already know about it! I absolutely love it :)

So, I was just reading this incredible article about James Franco on Esquire’s website. He’s on the cover of the September issue. It’s called “James Franco Eight Ways.” I’m constantly amazed by everything James Franco does with his life. My friends know I’m a big Franco fan. But people may have the wrong idea about me and they may think that I just have...
I just finished watching the first season of Glee with my sister. I NEED MORE. RIGHT NOW.
Edit: I just found out that we only had volume one of season 1 and that there’s 22 episodes in season 1! I’ve only seen 13 episodes! YES!
If you know me at all, you know that I love spicy food. I seriously love it with a passion. But today, I had one of the hottest peppers I’ve ever had in my life. I don’t know what it was but it made me feel like I was going to cry. It took sticking my tongue against the vent in the car for 5 minutes, a huge bottle of Yoohoo, and a cookie to even begin to get rid of the burning taste on...

SHUT UP
Some people’s Youtube comments really put me in migraine-mode. I don’t even know why I bother reading them when I watch videos. I just always end up scrolling down and getting frustrated. There are so many ridiculously dumb people in this world.
For example, Eminem and Rihanna’s brand new video for their song “Love the Way You Lie” just came out and it features...

Gen’s baby shower is this coming up Saturday! I still can’t believe my brother is going to be a dad. Time has been flying faster and faster over the past couple of years. Anyway, I just know that he and Gen are going to be amazing parents to that little girl and I can’t wait to be an aunt :D !

Is it weird that T.I’s “Whatever You Like” is my favorite song to work out to? It’s a little weird. I put it on repeat, blast it, and run run run.
I’m growing apart from certain people who were once my closest friends. They didn’t do anything wrong. I didn’t do anything wrong. It just goes that way. Drifting, drifting. And the weird part is that it doesn’t bother me at all. You’re going to keep friendships with the people who you’re meant to keep around. That’s alright.
Also, I’m beginning to...
I really don’t appreciate when someone is trying to kill me in my dream. It’s extremely tiring when I have to keep finding ways to stay alive. Restless night.
I don’t have any more of my favorite pens. I need a smooth pen to start working on poems in the cool journal I bought the other day. It’s all in the pen, man. The right pen has a lot of power. A mission for tomorrow.
