The Pros and Cons of Breathing

I live in the small town of Perth, Ontario, Canada.

It is full of heritage and has won awards for being "The Prettiest Town in Ontario".

 

The town is very eco-friendly. I am proud of everything we stand up for and fight against.

We do know how to have a good time, and our town has many festivals.

 

The kids I have befriended are !awesome!, and love to party.

Without them I wouldn't be the same person I am today.

 

Lastly, Perth is a great town and I wish you were here,

Because I can't think of one bad thing about it!

If you don't have tickets already, they are available at the door!!
It's Sydney's last Ottawa show, because they are on their final tour of Ontario
(they are breaking up).
I'm sure it'll be loads of fun everyone!

I can't put up pictures tonight because it'll be too late by the time I get back,
but I will post pictures next week-end of the show, okay?


Hope to see you there!!

I waited outside in the cold for a few minutes, but it probably seemed like longer because of how absolutely freezing it was. My friends Shirley, Josh and I huddled while we waited, student cards in hand. When they finally started letting us into the school, checking student cards to make sure we are all actually students. Once inside, Shirley took my sweater and I went to pay and have a girl put marker on my hand. I waited for Shirley to pay and get in after giving Josh our coats for the coat check, and then we went to the bathroom. (Yes you really need to know that).

Skipping to inside, we walked in when the one half of the gym was fairly empty and set up for the dance. The carpeted wall was flashing with funky colours and shapes, while the disco lights made bubble shapes everywhere. We tried dancing, but there wasn't enough people inside and it was kind of awkward. We went back out to the hall and there was a whole bunch of people out in the hall. We made a few jokes about "apparently the party is out here!" and went to find more people.

After we got Mari, Jasmine and Mackenzie along, and talked to Heather and Nick a little bit, we headed back inside the dance. The haze of smoke from the smoke machine made everything feel almost surreal. The DJs were really great, too, because they even aimed the smoke machine and the right places (like people playing air guitar and the cloud would be around their legs and slowly curl up over us). It was hard to breathe a few times, but it was a really cool thing. I love smoke machines.

Some of the time I felt a bit like a hippy, because the lights were flashy and the smoke moulded around us. I had a lot of fun just dancing, laughing and feeling free. We danced on the speaker type of things that weren't actually speakers but had speakers right by our ears when we were on them. Girls and boys grinded on the dance floor, just boogied, or made out (gross to see when you're just glancing).

Our favourite remiscant songs such as "What is Love" (Mari and I would do our headbanging thing like in the movie), "Shake it" (it reminded Shirley and I of the past spring.summer), and Spice Girls (just good times with the people I love). I had a lot of fun, but somehow the mood was a bit ruined for me the whole dance because I couldn't stop thinking about this guy I like and wondering if he'd like this song, or if he was there, or if he has a girlfriend, etc.

As the dance came to a close (and I knew it was), we counted down to the fake New Years. As our school dances always end, the classics came on. "YMCA", "Grease Lightning", "Summer Loving" and other such songs played, and then as the last song and last slow song came on, my friends and I ditched. It's a crappy way to end a dance for everyone who wasn't grinding away with someone. "Lips of An Angel" echoed as we exited the dance and went down to the main entrance. We got our sweaters and coats from coat check, waited for our rides home, and said goodbye.

So first you'd have to check out this journal,

http://mytrendy-secret.livejournal.com/21116.html?mode=reply
(it's not a link, but you can copy and paste, right?)

I would have commented this on her actual journal, but I wanted to make a journal out of it. Besides, it's a pretty long comment.

You chose really bias pictures for your examples, a fact I will ignore at the moment.

Clearly, you don't understand the concept that "its not quantity, its quality". So it really doesn't matter how long you've been on buzznet, more that you have good photos.

Next, I will show you to the idea that perhaps, had you not written this, you might have gotten your badge later on. Patience?

Lastly, badges simply mean you are very talented. You aren't above anyone else because you have this badge, you aren't better than anyone. It's just recognition that you are very good. When they say "best of the best" it's a compliment to you, not a degradation to anyone else.

So had you had a little patience, understanding, and common sense, you'd realized it's better to be open-minded and happy than pointing out the flaws of those you wish to be like. xBlanksface is a talented photographer, and she is always posting. No need to go around complaining about the fact that you aren't an 'Original', and she is. And you REALLY didn't need to point fingers.

I don't mean to offend anyone in this comment, I just wanted to get my feelings and opinions on this topic out. What got me really mad was that she personally chose Sara to pick on.

First off , Folie a Deux. I'm really excited for this album!
Here's a preview HERE (http://www.7digital.com/stores/mercury/artists/fall-out-boy/folie-a-deux-uk-standard/)
And that makes me really excited to hear them. the Mixtape I got over the summer made me really excited, too, though.
Briiillliiiannnttt =D
But I wish Lake Effect Kid, ALPHAdog and OMEGAlomaniac, and Catch Me if You Can were on it, too. Oh well.

Second of all , Twilight movies!!
I really loved the movie, I want to watch it over and over again. They did miss a few parts, but I expected them to because the book is so big and the movie is only 2 hours long. I can't wait until it comes out on DVD.

If I could play any part in any film of the saga, it would be Bree in Eclipse. I've already started practicing my pained expressions and saying "how can you stand it?!" =] I wonder if they'd pick me for the part?

Now about you!
Are you excited for the new album?
What's your favourite track on it?
What book do you like best of the Twilight saga?
Who would you play if you could be in any of the movies?

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

That was much needed.

I have so much going on that I can't even begin to explain.
With love, and hate, and tool-bagishness,
with beginnings and endings and rocky roads,
and then I have to think of myself.

With no new beginnings or endings,
no love, no hate.
I try not to be tool-bagish or rocky.

There is so much going on around me that I am involved in that has nothing directly to do with me.
But I like to help, of course, so I help.
I like to give advice even if I'm not in a position to do so.
I want to help.
I want to give advice.
I try to know as much as I can, but I can't.

Everything is so chaotic, so crazy.
Maybe I should detach myself from everything for a little while.
Just go through the motions until it settles down.
I can't always be there to help people through, they will figure themselves out eventually...
Right?

Here's a sample of my novel (the one I'm writing.) I wanted to get some input on it, so if you guys could just leave me a comment telling me what you think, that'd be great! (Oh sorry about the size of the font, but hey! At least it's easy to read.)

“Okay, enough questions. Do you want to do something else?” I tried to get the subject away from answering his questions. I promised myself I would answer them another time, when I could prepare more.

“Sure. There’s nothing on TV though...” He winked at me, hinting slightly. I melted under his power over my emotions, and let myself fall over his lap.

“I could always ask you more questions.” I joked, and positioned myself on his lap so that we were closer and both comfortable. My body argued with my mind.

My mind told me to avoid getting myself in this situation, but my body craved his kiss. I hesitated, meeting his eyes, and leaned in, but he stopped me.

“Ray, we can slow down if you want, I don’t mind.” He offered, and I could tell from his tone he felt the same as me. I shook my head no, and leaned in further.

My lips met his, and his gentle grip slid around my waist. I slipped my hands around his neck and pulled him in tightly. It wasn’t too long before he pulled me on top of him on the couch, and our tongues danced within the confines of our two mouths. It was too soon before he pulled away and laughed.

“Okay, let’s take a break, babe.” I could see his plan working in his mind.

He would give me only a sample for now, and leave me wanting more, so that next time it would be even better because I’d be waiting for it.

Clever.

But I pulled him up, not wanting to give into his games, and gave him a quick peck on the lips. I could play his game, too. We went to grab our jackets and put our shoes on, deciding on a walk to the park and back. He held my hand protectively, and I felt safe.

When I was with Oliver now, nothing could break me. Nothing could break us. He made me feel calm, happy, secure, and beautiful. I learned a lot from his answers, more than I should have. But I trusted him, and trusted my feelings. I wondered if we were dating now. As if on cue, Oliver had the answers.

He stopped abruptly, turned to face me, and I looked around shyly. We were in the park now, just about to cross a bridge. “Ray, I know it’s only been a few weeks that I’ve known you, but I really like you. No, I love you. You can always make me smile and whenever I think of you I feel like I’m floating. Will you be my girlfriend?"

Here are my thoughts on this article interviewing Pete Wentz in Out Magazine:
http://www.out.com/detail.asp?page=1&id=23932

I'll list a few quotes and what I think of them.

“ ‘Don’t do that’? Now I’m just going to do that 10 times in a row.”
- I totally agree, I do that all the time just because it's human nature.

“The actual acceptance of gay marriage is inevitable,” he says. “It’s just like how the next generation of kids are going to all have tattoos.”
-I'm not getting a tattoo, that would be what's called a hyperbole.

It could be his view from the stage -- Fall Out Boy audiences skew toward teenage girls, and dudes who like mosh pits and teenage girls -- but Wentz shrugs off the idea that whatever bias remains will survive another generation.
-Now that's a bit funny ^_^

He says his liberal parents never shoved any particular politics down his throat, “except, like, Kenyan food.”
-Haha. I laughed inside at his comment.

and eventually left DePaul University a semester shy of a political science degree to play bass full-time.
-A SEMESTER SHY? You couldn't have waited a bit longer? There was money spent on that!

Even in radio-friendly major-label land they’ve hewn close to their do-it-yourself punk roots
-YES. That's what I wanted to hear.

“It is pretty gay,” Wentz easily agrees, grinning as we discuss how the crowd still sings right along.
-Then it's settled. We're good, we got that out of the way, let's move on.

And most recently? He actually apologizes before responding. “A long time ago,” he says with a slight wince. “Probably when I was 22?”
-Alright, everybody raise their hand who is over 22 and hasn't made out with a member of the same sex.

Maybe you’re a lesbian, I suggest, and he punches the air in triumph. “Yes!” he crows. “I’ve still got the cover!”
-All of this made me laugh out loud.

by people calling you ‘fag,’ and being like, ‘Yeah, I am a fag.’ Even though you’re not.
-Power to the people!!!

This article actually makes me love Pete even more. I don't know why exactly, but I'm like "Yes. He's a real person and he has actual feelings. I'm glad that you guys finally realized that and I don't see how anyone can get off on telling the public he's gay. Because it won't hurt him and it's not a big deal, even if he is gay."

There were a few more but I kind of passed them cause I got really into the article. I suggest reading it if you are even remotely interested in the what-nots of Pete Wentz.

*does little cheesy jump in the air and pauses*

I've officially started Summer vacation =] I have plenty yet nothing to do this summer. I am getting a job somewhere, getting fit (I call it "project: get fit"), and hanging out with friends. I want to have a great time but I just don't know why I'm so blue. I think it has something to do with a picture.



ughhh!!! They are so happy together. It makes me sad, cause I know it'll never happen to me. *Thinks of Dane Cook because he wants a talking monkey but he knows it'll never happen.*

Anyway, so there's that. But also, I want to get a job for some cash so I don't owe people money all the time. Yay bacon! And I have to have to have to have to hang out with Shirley.


I'm going to pick out some pictures to put in picture frames now. And then I'm off to do something productive?

*unpauses and lands*

(Hartford, I Call This Safety, Oceans, Sydney, Rosesdead)

Hey guys, so I'm at Shirley's and we just went to a wickd awesome show last night! It was frickin AMAAZAZINGGGG...

Hartford has realllllly great lyrics, I Call This Safety has great screaming, Oceans has a crazy ass vocalist who was like EVERYWHERE, Sydney is just fucking the best, I love them, and Rosesdead is great for moshing. It was Rosesdead's last time in Ottawa, so I felt kind of special about that part, and I pretty much hung out with Anto Boros for the rest of the night after he went offstage. WE SMILE THE SAME WAY! OMMGGG. Shirley and I made a new friend, Natasha, and Sydney dedicated a song to her! She was so excited. hehe Well I had so much fun but I'm goiing to wrap this up and do something else.

Hartford:
Ben singing.


I Call This Safety:
Guy screaming (man I feel bad for not knowing these names), and other guy playing guitar.



Oceans:
Ryan black screaming, and the guy with the amazing robot sweater.



Sydney *love*:
Scott posing for the camera, Anto playing, and Anto getting ready.



(but that's it cause I don't want to make this too long)

And I didn't get any Rosesdead pics, but again, like Shirley's blog here are some random pics of the night:


Shirley being so cute outside the Cafe


Me 'n' Anto (Ryan Black in the background)


Rosesdead playing from where I was.

Ciao luffly readers! Lots of lovee ^ 3 ^
Jessica Jeremiad

Well this journal is about a few things.
I found some rant/whine/blow-off-steam material!

1) People loved for no reason & life.
2) Boys & their stupidity.
3) Sickness & me.
4) Dress-up & fun.
5) Popularity & Buzznet.

1) Oh man, where do I start? All these good looking people everywhere with loads of friends and/or money (usually money brings friends). Or just the fact that they look more appealing than other people

Nevermind. This makes me too angry.

2) Boys! They are so stupid, clueless, confusing (shocker!), and just overall ... stupid! (For lack of better adjectives.) There is hardly a way to explain it, but my point is that you can't live with them, but somehow you can't live without them. Can someone explain to me how we continue to like them even after they crush us over and over and over again? Or after they forget important days or just don't understand us when we need them to? They screw us over constantly and yet we still need them? Dammit. Besides the fact that this guy doesn't understand that I don't want to be happy all the time and it is normal for me to look sad sometimes,  and the fact that I still haven't found someone that has a mutual like for me *lame*, and besides the fact that I have seen too many people break up and get together with new people in the past 4 weeks, I don't remember why I started this. Am I just jealous, overreacting, or am I right? I feel stupid now, but that's my thoughts. I know somehow I am right. Somehow.

3) I'm sick. I cough all the time, I've been sneezing more than usual, my nose is ticklish and plugged up, for a while there I was losing my voice, and before my thought got scratchy I felt like something was eating my stomach. Gross. I want to feel betterr. *goes to find some of that stuff Shirley recmommended, orange juice, and chicken noodle soup.* =]

4) I am currently dressed up like a girl in one of those 80's work out videos! It's actually for relay for life. Super duper excited. I'm wearing neon pink legwarmers, colourful tights (hopefully I can find my grey ones or buy blue ones), a blue bathing suit (one-piece), polka-dot arm warmers, colourful bracelets, *sneeze*, colourful necklace, blue sweater, blue headand, big pink hoop earrings, and if I was wearing shoes I'd be wearing my black and white high-tops!

5) Popularity and Buzznet. For this, all I'm going to say is: You should buzz/like/enjoy pictures for the actual pictures, not who they are by. Audrey (just the first person off the top of my head, sorry!) Kitching, for example, has a lot of pictures. I am not going to lie, I like some of them. But I mean comee onn, not all of her pictures should induce you to comment "I looove you Audrey, I love that slutty pose you're doing!" and buzz it. But don't listen to me, I'm a hypocrite and I would love it if people loved me.

That was my entirely pointless and unworthy of actually reading the whole thing rant. =] If you did read this far, congrats. You're not dead of boredom. If you somehow made it through, you might be confused. Don't worry, I confused myself just writing this! I changed my opinions halfway through.

Love forever and ever amen,
Jessica Jeremiad; <3 !

So I've gotten my first aid done. Listening to Sky Eats Airplane. Feeling pretty okay with myself, except my mom won't go buy me more cover up!! Dx Happy Mother's Day everyone!

Errrmmm, I need to put up more pictures, right? I'm trying to get settled in here as soon as I can. =] Lots of cool people for sure. Thanks a TON and a half Shirleyy!!

http://xshirleyx.buzznet.com/user/main/

Okay, so I better wrap this up and I'll find something to dish out later! (School tomorrow, blerggurgle.)

Air kisses over and over again until the air is sucked out of the atmosphere and I've literally loved you all to death. ^_^
Jessica Jeremiad

Hmm, so this is neat. Let me see what to discuss. Oh, I have something really big on my mind.

Have you ever seen something in a movie and never really thought it would actually happen to you? Good or bad. Well I know I always thought like that, even about those commercials about the people who say it. But then I went through something tonight and I was thinking about it and it reminded me so much of this one movie that I had to freak out inside. I try to forget things ever happen but it is really much harder to do than to say. I say this without really being able to tell you anything that happened, but I don't feel like even trying to explain anyway. I wish I could fast forward to good times right now. I need something good to happen. Please.

Anyway, that's my rant, see ya soon!
Xo - Jessica Jeremiad.
