GOD DAMNIT!!!! I missed Warped Tour... I really Really REALLY wanted to go!! UGHHH!~ What the hell, i offered to pay gas and even the damn ticket and i still couldnt find a way to go WTF. I wanted to go more than anything and one of the huge reasons just called me awhile ago.. Wonderfull.. I cant believe this crap.

Besides the bs

On Thursday i slept mostly all day and jake came over at about 1 AM and we just stayed up playing games all night. The next day Dalia Abby n Gus came over, then Jake, James and John did and finally Kris arrived. We just chilled and talked. I got to talk to Abby about my problems and that made me feel better.

Later on Kris, Jake, James, John and I went to the Bowling Alley when Dal Gus n Abby left. We met up with Edwin, Rudy, Shawn and more there. Just played some DDR and chilled..

As for today... I SHOULD BE AT WARPED TOUR !!!

Thursday, July 29, 2004

Today (Wed) i got a call at around 9 AM and it was from my mom, i finally got to talk to her. Then at about 11 Dalia called asking to come over so they came over at about noon. Just layed around and i showed them a photo album since they wanted to see baby pictures of me O_o Gus came later then Jake. James and John came, followed by Jesse and Eric then Kris, Edwin and Michael. Then Barney and Rudy.

Fun time, little after everyone came Kris n Edwin got pizza and when they came back we ate that then started some 8 Player Halo. We were playing a game and when we walked out Jesse and Eric put all the christmas lights stuff i had in the garage lol. On another game of Halo when i get out of the game cuz i just kicked too much ass (mwaha) Jesse and Eric tied my dads room door and my door together with a power cable so neither of them could open and they were all stuck in the rooms trying to get out. Good stuff~

 

After that just kept playing, doing w/e. Becky and Siobhan came later. Everyone left about 10:30 except Jesse, Eric, Becky, Shibby n Jake. After we cleaned the house and i was doing trash stuff Jesse popped a tape in the VCR while Shibby and Becky were watching TV then they were trying to figure out how to put the VCR on the TV to work so they kept trying to get it to work but when i got back i showed them how and so they put it on the TV and it was a lesbo porn tape and it freaked out them both, mostly siobhan but she found it funny. Was pretty damn funny.   Its 12:40 now.. Siobhan, Jake and Mike r here. Bez playing dat Mario Kart yo~ Thats all~
Fun night =)

Mmm lets see...

On sunday I came back home around noon to clean the house for a few hours then kris came back to pick me up and we grabbed jake so we then headed back to Kris's house. James came shortly after.. Cool seeing him again.

James, Jake and I went into the pool while kris had to work on his van with his dad.. So we were in the pool for ... hours and hours and Tanya n Becca arrived. Great seeing them aswell =) Beccas  b/f came sometime after and from there we all didnt do too much.

Yesterday (monday)  Jesse, Eric, Shelly and Gus came over. We just chilled...~

Shelly drawing~



Eric playing with my pod~



And gus but who hasnt seen that~



I didnt take a pic of Jesse :( He was emo~ lol... Shelly n Jesse went out got pizza, we ate that.. Later on Shelly had to go and gus had to go.  Around 1 AM 6 people from Red Lobster came, they were hanging out with Mike all day. They came and played Mario Kart ect~ They were really into it lol.. Jesse Eric n I were in the comp room playing with the guitars. When they all left we played Mario Party some~ It was funny~ We went to sleep pretty late and i was TIRED AS HELL...

As for today I was suppost to go to the beach with Becky and Siobhan. They told me to get ready at 11 so i was ready and went to beckys house cuz nobody called me but she was still sleeping so i told her dad to call me when she wakes and i didnt get anycall so *shrug*. The plan was we would go at 11ish and there was room for 1 person so i was gona invite Andrea and i did and she was suppost to call me in the morning to say if she was able to come or not.. No call... I was really convinced she would "try" this time lol. But it doesnt matter, didnt end up going anyway.

Today i got moving at like 5.. I was so so so so tired. Mike soon came and i went to Bahama Breeze with him and his parents for dinner and now im back home... Thats all for today. Jesse n Eric are seeing Shadows Fall right now but im not into that music so i decided to stay. But for tomorrow i think theyre gonna come n chill.

Another sig on my poster~ *shrug* lol... I didnt take any pics really~

100% official im not going to warped tour... I kinda want to go but i dont. Reasons for wanting to go and reasons for not wanting to go when theyre kinda the same reason.. er O_o

Well on Thursday i got home.. My grandparents were there... I stopped at jakes got him then we went to Walmart to get stuff for me, ate and came back home. Then later in the night. Eh...

Friday everyone came over. Jake came, Gus shortly after, then Dalia, Abby and Kris. We just chilled at the house for awhile then went to Sunset for a few hours. When we went into Barnes and Nobles we went into the childrens section where the story circle is and sat there for awhile and there was this black kid who... I suppose had a few mental problems was walking around doing very odd things like talking to himself, lifting books up n down and such... Well he went on the stage/circle thing where we were, layed down facing gus and got back up and walked away.. That was odd but funny lol.

Well when we got back Edwin and Roudy appeared at my door. So they came in. Abby and I sang karaoke. Dalia picked out a few songs for us. Around 11 Dalia and Abby had to go. Everyone else slept over.  We were up LATE~ Roudy, Edwin and I played Magic till 4 AM.. Jeeze i havent played in over a year, im kinda interested in it again. Mike came at around 1:30 am i think.. So he joined in.

And heres poeple passed out~




Then Roudy and Edwin looking at people die on my computer~


Kris was the first one to fall asleep. As for the rest of us. I dont know lol... But we knocked out at around 7AM... I woke up at 1:30 noticed Kris had gone, he had to go home and work on the car and roudy was gone too~ He left to get ready for the day. We didnt even really get up till like 5 PM we were so tired and still wanted to sleep.. Gus kept falling asleep so we gave him a rock n' roll wake up. Jake got the chair and put the amp right next to him and put it really high then i started playing. He jumped, was pretty funny.  Edwin had to go home later in the day, Kris came over at around 11...  And well now im at kris's place with gus and were gonna crash here for the night.

Its good to be with my friends again :)

*Mini update July 21*
90% chance im not going to warp tour. Thursday, Chronic Future, Jimmy Eat World and a few other bands i like wont be there. So not too much there this year. And GC n Simple PLan wont either lol. Poor boppers will be sad.
*mini update over*

Like i said before nothing really exciting here...
 
My dad is back in Korea. He took this 1 guy on his team that i like a lot, hes the korean version of bon jovi and 2 managers. He said the 2 manager guys kept complaining when in las vegas and L.A... Cmon they been to DC, LA and Vegas all for free.. How could anyone complain.
 
I dunno bout Warped Tour if im going or not. The entire punk genre is getting pretty old. I still enjoy Yellowcard, Billy Talent and Thursday tho. The only thing ive been listening to for awhile now is NIN, SW, NIN, SW, NIN, SW, NIN, SW, NIN and more NIN. Trent Reznor and Christopher Hall are fucking gods. I was gonna buy the NIN live DVD but its 30 bux so im gonna find it used on ebay when i get back. NIN n SW = best bands on the face of this earth. I got to talk to the guitarist from Trust Co. for awhile back not too long ago, i emailed Trent maybe he'll respond. *shrug* 
 
Im sort of communicating with Alley. I dont want to... at all... but i figure im gonna have to sooner or later. I have more important things to worry about right now than her tho. She said awhile back i think when i was in Korea or something that she might go to Warped Tour. If i do decide to go and see her.  Heh I dont know if id be mad, angry, happy, depressed or what. Happy because when i saw Alley when we were going out I was always extremely happy and i suppose that hasnt changed. Mad because of all the shit she did to me. Angry because she isnt my girl i guess you could say anymore. Depressed because of all those mixed together. I think if i do go and shes there... Actually i dont know what the hell i think.
 
Lol i need a girlfriend but by me saying that i know i cant even keep the girl if i did have whoever because of the total emotional turdhole im in. And the turdhole isnt from alley or anything.  I do like someone though but im just gonna "throw it away" or something. Its pointless trying.
 
Anyways ill be back home thursday. I saw Anchorman, rented Eurotrip, gonna see I, Robot soon and just walk around the mall n look for a sweatband since all mine are pretty damn nasty no matter how much i clean them.
 
Uhm... Havent really done much on the passtime. Learned a lot of NIN songs on guitar n figured out a lot of synth sounds with my pedal...
 
Uhm... I was gonna see Lost Prophets yesterday but i forgot about it when it was time n besides didnt want to bother my G-Pa about it.
 
Uhm... I really have nothing to say, i dont even know why im typing this.. Its cause i have nothing to do...
 
So uh... NIN rocks... ok

Be home thursday!

Just a quick post...
 
Im in jacksonville with my grandparents now...
 
Todays odd because i remember I looked forward to this date since i "knew" it would come but owell.. Sometimes things just come and kick ya in the ass huh. July 16th, the day of what couldve been.
 
Anyways my gma bought me a pair of pants and a much needed new nylon belt... I bought a Digitech Synth Wah Envelope Filter pedal for my guitar. Its great, i can recreate similiar sounds in many NIN and Stabbing Westward songs... All thats left is a whammy but that biatch is expensive =p I tried to Grunge Pedal from Digitech aswell and got some sick Sick SICK sounds from it, maybe some other time.
 
At the mall when i was with my gma... Lots of pretty girls O_O Okay sorry i havent seen good looking american girls in a month so my eyes were all over the place...
 
Ok... thats all... Not much is gona happen here so i might not be updating much in the next week. I dont have my moms cell phone so uh, cant really call anyone either.
 
Oh and Andrea couldnt come over *cough cough* Yeah you!! I know you read this!! lol
 
Ok

IMPORTANT!!! I DO NOT HAVE MY CELL PHONE. CALL MY HOUSE.

Well josh is home...
I left monday morning to America and arrived to America Monday morning. wewt 2 mondays~

First from Busan we took a plane to Icheon airport. I was with my dad, son wook and these 2 other korean guys.



When we arrived i went on my plane from Seoul to Atlanta. That flight SUCKED... Ughhh 14 hours... WEll after the long crappy flight ended i hopped on the plane from Atlanta to Miami. A guy from customs that my dad taught awhile back was suppost to meet me to "direct" me but he didnt so i talked to a customs guy to radio him in for me. He met up with me and i got my luggage ect and got on the plane. That flight was cool~ I just happened to be sitting next to 2 former South Dade graduates lol... Small world... But on the back of every seat was a moniter and you could watch tv, listen to music and play music trivia with other people on the plane. I just watched Fuse and help the girls next to me with the trivia~ That was koo~

My grandparents met me in the airport since my mom is still in korea and my dad is in washington for 10 days then hes going back to korea... First thing i did was eat a nice spicy chicken sandwhich from wendys... Oooo i missed that. On friday or thursday im going to jacksonville with my grandparents for a week then im coming back home and Mike is gonna be my house-mate until my dad comes back home. That might be awhile. So im parentless for awhile... or a long time.. Who knows.

When i got home it didnt feel like home. It was really akward. When i sat on my computer chair it didnt feel familiar and when i touched the keyboard and mouse it was like i never used them before. Seeing the neighborhood was weird and i was thinking "Why did i come back?". Its good to be home but i had it good in korea... Ahh just that 1 thing made me want to leave. I miss them all in korea.

Ok later in the day i said hi to jason and his family then jake came over then angela n doug arrived. Because of the airplane rides and the lack of sleep n other things i was... Wasted... Kris was there as well and when he was leaving he came back a few minutes later in the house to tell us a girl got hit by a truck. We all went out to look and this girl fell off a scooter and got her leg pretty banged up.

Next day Gus n Jake were over. Its good to see gus again.

Today i got my haircut, got some money and trying to get Andrea over... Keyword... "TRYING"

Its hot outside.. Korea wasnt that hot... This sucks... I miss the school girls already :(

hehe Josh out~

Ok this might seem odd

My 20 days have turned into 5 hours. I got the soonest flight home so im coming home... Theres a big part of me that wants to go home but there was also a part of me that wanted to stay but the only reason i wanted to stay was because of the people in the Join. I met so many people here that i will never forget but i need to get home. Im going to miss everyone, and theres no point in the "We will see eachother again" bullshit because it wont happen.

Ok i guess ill start with yesterday and today... Yesterday on the 10th...

I kinda dont remember what happened first. The 2 girls came to the room at around 4? Ok anyways they came sometime and we stayed in the room a lil. Afterwards we went to the mall to get some food from subway and walked back to the hotel to go on the beach. From the beach we were walking close to the water to sit and we saw Dex. Dex left shortly to get food. We then spotted... I still cant say his name so im gonna call him Brazil Dude. But yeah. Tori went to the Join to work. Youn Jon was talking to a friend then went with Dex and i stayed on the beach talking to Brazil Dude. Got my laundry... Went to the Join afterwards with my guitar. Brazil Dude plays guitar so we just played stuff.

And i was in the Join for awhile.. Talking to everyone... Wishing i could see them when i went back home..



Youn Jon wasnt there that night but she was like an older sister I really really wish this wasnt goodbye... and Brazil Dude hates pictures but hes a funny guy, hes always like "In Brazil MANNYYY beautiful women man!" "In Brazil we LOVEEE to drink" "In Brazil.." yeah you get it and he uhm... loves women lol. I had many enjoyable days with Tori and she made my visit here a LOT better, Un Yon is new to the bar but shes a very interesting person and i wish i couldve got to know her more, Angela is extremely cute and just great... especially when she says bitch, its like Aww... Franky is her b/f, hes a great guy and i like him a lot. Dex is a great guy... Great drunk guy lol...But i like him a lot, hes fun to just chill with especially since hes always drunk. And Mr. Kim just kicks hehe

Then theres other people i met there... Many for just a night, so many great people to talk to. I wish we had something like that back home. Im going to miss everyone...

Well at around 3 AM Tori got off work and we went to Star Face, another bar. And well... Interesting things happened that im not going to talk about... But yeah... very interesting lol... Dex was there and so was Brazil Dude.. They were drunk as HELL.
Dex went home. Then Brazil Dude, Tori, Myself and the girl that was there... Her name was confusing so i just called her Mei Ling cause i think thats a cute chinese name and its fitting =p.



Yeah thats the beach shes on. At about 5 we left the bar and started walking looking for a taxi.. Found one and went to the beach. From there awhile later we went to my hotel room. About 2 hours later we all decided to sleep cuz we were uhm... Tired beyond belief. But yeah...very interesting

On the 11th which is today...

Dex, Youn Jun and Tori came up to the room after my dad and I came back from Lunch. We went down to meet up with Brazil Dude.. Went on the beach...

Walked somewhere... Went for Dinner... Went to the hotel that was a bowling alley but it was full so we just stopped at the arcade alittle.. Went to the Join... Went to a store because Youn Jun wanted to get me something but i didnt want her to. Then uhm... Had to say goodbye... I hate goodbyes especially to those i just known for a few weeks and care so much for and will probly never see them again...

Well i must get packing... Be home soon...

Im gonna be here 20+ days actually, 10 days im going to be alone since my dads going to D.C. I miss home...

But yeah how many 17 year olds get a penthouse room in one of the top resorts in korea by themselves for 10 days~ Woo party.. sort of... Theres uhm not anyone i can hang out with my age since all the highschoolers are in school all the time.

Well the 7th is a story i rather not talk about

For the 8th of July, the night before i didnt sleep much so i slept in really late.. It was about 2 :15 PM and i was still sleeping then i heard the door bell ring and it was Tori. We stayed in the room for awhile then went to Outback, she treated me to lunch this time.


After lunch we went back into the room. At 6 I went to the Join with her for awhile. Got dinner with dad.. Came back to the Join. Just uhm, chilled i guess. The new girl at the Join isnt bad, id like to get to know her and well.. I got A LOT of time for that O_o

At Midnight i went to a DVD room with angela and franky to see the movie Monster



Afterwards it was 2:30 and I walked back to the Join and Youn Jon was there. Havent seen her in a few days. I left at almost 4 am to go back and sleep.

Today we were gonna go on the Banana boat but were rescheduling.
So today = nothing...

Not many pictures, nothing big happened past few days...

The 4th of july sucked, we got winds and rain from the typhoon and i was bummed out that day and felt sick in my stomach with a huge headache the entire day. I stayed in the Join till about 4 am.

The 5th i was with Tori , ate at the pasta/italian place at the mall then walked around the place.



Today (the 6th) i had lunch with Tori then baskin robins. The night before she made plans to go over her friends house so after lunch she went there but thats ok cuz we still had lunch. I went back in the room and played guitar until dad came back from work.



Went to the Join later then uhm now im typing this..



And uh heres the band that plays outside the hotel in the back next to the beach the past few nights..



Thats all...

Kk heres an update~

And first ill start off by saying i dont remember what day i did what.

Ok the things that happened in the past few days.

Met up with all the people my dad work with and had dinner then went to karaoke for awhile. Fun stuff

Next day went to lunch with Tori to TGI Fridays where she used to work, we went to the beach. Youn Jun came later and so she was with us. got Mcdonalds, went back to the Join then i headed back to the hotel room.

Next day went with Tori to see Spiderman 2 but we just missed a show so we killed an hour at the arcade, after that it was a lil over 6 and we had to run to the Join so she could get to work but it was raining and my umbrella kinda broke but good thing she brought hers along. After was a chilli cookoff thing with my dads work ppl at Dwains room. We ate chilli, played cards, watched a korean movie that was good. After I went to the Join and delivered left overs to the girls.

Today (being July 3) ... absolutely nothing... ate at KFC with my dad.. thats the day... Went to the Join but i didnt really wanna go. I dunno ive been weird since yesterday, dont know why i keep getting mood swings that are completely random.

Well tomorrow or today or whatever (July 4th)... yeah its 2 AM here so its July 4th here.. O yay... Why so much enthusiam? I think were gonna be getting some of that weather from the typhoon thats hitting japan today.. which means.. absolutely nothing today..

And my moment of Zen... Its funny how sometimes i wish i was alittle older but i want to stay 17 or wish i was still 16.
Ok well i dont feel like talking into depth about things so maybe later.

Josh out~

Oh i removed the Josh! stuff on the left. Thought it was pointless at the moment.
