the slow dance of the infinite stars.

needs to change.

I’m getting restless again.

I don’t know what it is but I feel like there is something I should be doing. I feel like there is more to my life than this, than what I’m doing right now. I want more, and I’m itching to get out there and grab it.

I’m not one for staying in one place for long periods of time. I don’t like it. I feel like I need to get out, start over, do something different for a change…..

do you ever get that feeling? the restless, get up and go, run until you can’t run anymore, feeling. the one that pulls and tugs at you until you can’t ignore it anymore?

I think I’ve been ignoring this feeling for too long. It keeps coming back, stronger and more insistant. Things are about to change. soon.

Not for the faint of heart.

WOW. I don’t have to look at anything like that for my photography class. Its definitely….. Interesting? um.. I don’t know. wow.

“There are no rules and regulations for perfect composition. If there were we would be able to put all the information into a computer and would come out with a masterpiece. We know that’s impossible. You have to compose by the seat of your pants.” ~ Aronld Newman

I’m working on my Photography homework today, and this is a quote that was on the Course Website. I like it. I think its true. Oh and I love quotes:)

so on March 7th we are playing a free acoustic show with The Maine, The Summer Set and Runner Runner.. Here is the info!!



Saturday March 7th from 12-5PM @ The Smarpunk.com warehouse! 11783 Cardinal Circle, Garden Grove CA (located at the end of the street)..



It’s open to the public so come and bring everyone you know!

This week has been a very good week for me:) :) :) I’ve been hearing about all of these amazing shows. and the best part about this one: FREE!!!!

To watch Pinocchio right now….. :)

I was going to go to a concert tonight at the Key Club but then I started thinking and ended up completely changing my mind,here is why:
1) Parking is a bitch: los angeles and valet parking ( helloooo, parking costs more than the freaking concert!! that doesn’t seem right)

2) crazy L.A. drivers. I realize your stressed and just want to get home but pop a xanax or something instead of trying to run me over!! I’m from Ojai, I have no idea how the hell to survive in that sort of madness.

3) Sunset Strip all by my lonesome:( ( I’m old enough to drink and gamble but I don’t do either, and I hate being in L.A. alone at night, something about it always gives me the heebie jeebies, I swear I need to take an adventure out there during the day and just explore to sort of get rid of that feeling…. and I definitely need to get back into a Karate class!!)

4) I really want to see the jakes and TAI, so I figure this way, I’ m saving some money and in 2 weeks can see the other two concerts AND visit family while I’m down in the area…..

so the moral of the story is: I overthink EVERYTHING! I talk myself out of things way too easily, I’m still afraid of being alone in a big city ( wow, how will I survive NY???), and I really want something different….

P.S. anyone feel like going on an adventure in LALA LAND in the next few weeks?
