there was a whole lot of bad, and it was all in a row

I shall start from the begining: The Aquabats

Firstly, the Phonmenauts were awsome, I bought their cd. The Epoxies weirded me out, Robin adn i sat them out in the lobby. I saw my water polo buddy since i was 11 when we left, Kyle, sad I didn't get to talk to him. Andrew Schweitzer adn Brian Gay were there too. I reall liked the Aquabats Stage show, they are really awsome. Now that the good is over, lets talk about the bad.

First, we lost Kenna. Then we lost me. I was smushed against some weird big men, and ass raped by all the 2 ft taller than me guys(ask Katie, she knows what I mean) and then I was on the other side of the room before I decided to join in their giant caucus race to reach the exit and take a breather. Got some water and some money, sat on a wall for a while and then Kenna walked out so we went over to buy cds, when we noticed Robins dad running around(he decided to go too, who would have guessed) so we said hi, and he said that Robin got her face kicked and Katie got knocked out. Fun times, neither of them had a concusions(well... at least Katie and I think she didn't get one. She may have a brain tumor for all we know).

KAtie and I decided to get some food on our way home since we didnt get dinner, and upon leaving, my car decided that it doesn't want to start back up again. We ask everybody fopr a jump, lopts of people said sure, but they didn't have cables(i thought I did, but didn't) so i called the padres, who called the insurance, who said a tow truck would be there within the hour. and hour and 2 min later one shows up. it was 1:00 am, 2 18 yr old girls in the skanky part of Point Loma. good going Geiko!

BUt we got to see a super awsome lightning storm on the way home.

i think i see a pattern.

shit. vomit. shit. my pool has it all! Come one, come all to the anual Aquafest! I'll be working all day! W00t!

oh those guys...

4 days after my pool opens again, someone vomits. Isn't that funny? By the way, I dont have work on friday, I was supposed to go up to Long Beach, but my parents are crazy. Fix that alone time chillin's.

i am talented

I broke my retainer again. I krazy glued it back together again. Whoo.

interesting

i found this thing today that analyzes your first name, telling about your personality. It really got me how good it was, with both my first names. hmm.

nostalgia

welp, I've been feeling a bit reflective today. I helped AJ coach swim team today at my work, which was really awsome. I heart those little kids, they worked so hard, and were so tired but barly did anything. It also made me think while I was driving to water polo, how hard I've worked to be a good water polo player, individually and as a team player. It made me think of how hard I tried to be an accepted team player while I was the veteran, I tried to aspire to the other players when I had more experience. I was just volunteered to help coach while Megan was on vacation. I've been working on my coach for years so I could coach water polo, only to have it passed b y me to someone else. I've coached his teams before, I've been trying so hard and getting nothing. it reminded me of the drama department. I've always seen it as a parallel to my water polo team. I have always said drama was my family, and in many ways it has. The drama room in particular was like my home away from home, and Ms. Howell like a mother. But it's really been like a team to me, the way we work to get things done I there. I also think, how hard some of those people work to get things done, to be able to be the designer, the "head" of something. Now, I didn't quite just waltz in there, but it was pretty close. It's not like I wasn't toally devoted to the department, becasue I was; but I was in charge of so much and involved with so much in so little time. I got the Bank of America department award for fine arts because of the work I put in there. But I remember what someone said the next day when i told them, and the look on their face, a mixture of confusion and anger and disapointment.
"You got it? I thought it would have gone to someone who had been doing it for all four years." and I had said, despite my characteristic pushing away my feelings because I did not want to ofend them and asked:
"What do you mean someone from all 4 years?"
and they had told me not to get offened, because they didn't mean anything by it, and that they were sure I deserved it.
I hadn't expected this award and was very proud of it, and this hurt my feeling coming from someone so close. But i knew what they ment, knew what they felt. They had been there the whole time, and someone waltzed in and took what was theirs away. They had worked hard for it and thought maybe, just maybe they would get it, but didn't. I know that feeling. I hate that feeling, and I feel it all to much. With school, with plays, especially with polo. Always with water polo.
