Making up for lost time baby...

Today I've learned that I forget everything, need to pay attention more, adore my friends, like to play pranks, am super happy when I'm swimming, wished you still loved me but know I'll find someone who actually does, want to create a tumblr, love to just be in the same place as the Jonas Brothers, laugh and giggle when I'm around boys, love my mom so much for putting up with me, never want to change anything about my life, put off everything until the last minute, love being at my job mostly due to the people around me, and just that this summer has been awesome so far. Thanks to everyone in my life for being there, and know I love my my family, and extra sisters, and all my friends so much. <3




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....let's just roll right over.

Walk like a gentleman...

We like to take picturesss. I have Anarbor all over my butt!







Be sweet and keep smiling.
.....and curse like a wave.

As those dotted lines move faster...

Wow! What can I say my life has been super crazy lately. I've been running around everywhere. Working, concerts, cousins, Wildwood, Sweet Sixteen, and so much more stuff. Everyone is amazing, and nothing could be better. Jonas was so good!! Warped is this weekend and I could not be happier. I have no idea what to expect at all, but it should be grand. I'll post pictures up soon, but for now I'm off to bed.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....we'll watch the night turn into day.

I'll take you out...

Katherine, Melissa, & Jayne!!!
Ah!! Check out this fall tour! We are going! I don't care what we have to do for the tickets or where we have to travel to!

The Maine
A Rocket To The Moon
Cobra Starship
Boys Like Girls




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....though I'm hardly worth your time.

I know you won't admit this...

"Music is what you hear, and not what you see." -Anarbor




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....but I'm a silhouette to you.

I'm a big weirdo ;)

You know they started...

His voice is amazing! Meliss, and Kate know who I'm talking 'bout.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....something I can't stand.

I love you to death...

Rupert Grint please marry me! Please? July 17 baby<3




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....but to you I'm already dead.

We finally did it! Graduation.

Maybe you were just afraid, knowing you were miles away...

This song makes me cry every time basically. It sucks because I don't even have anyone I want to fly with me at this time in my life. July 14th can't come any slower, but as of now today is a big day and it's so strange it's actually here. I can't believe that something I've wanted since I was soo young is finally here. I don't know what's next or what to expect, but all I can say is that it'll be a very interesting journey to where I want to get to and be.

"Now the past
Can come alive
And give it meaning
And a reason
To give all I can
To believe once again"

P.S 200th post!




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
....from the place where you needed to be, and that's right here with me.

I need to leave...

Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....it all behind forever.

You want a chase...

I blame you for it all.
It's all b/c of you. Suck it!

That's me saying it nicely.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....but you're chasing your tail.

I wanna fight with you...

Tonight we lie awake
Remember how the coffee made us shake
On those long drives?
One more long night
Another seven days
Heartbeat racing
The interstate, my home tonight
For one more long night
I'm sure as hell the happiest I've ever been

We can't hide, we let go
We've got more than we know
My friends are a different breed
My friends are...

There's a ghost in this room
I think I'll name it after all of you
And watch it hang over my bed like decorations
Celebrate it
Memories that came and went
And a lot of all that time we spent
Listening to everything our parents told us not to take in

Now make a change
I'm counting down
The mile marks to every town
And falling more in love
With the distance put between us

We can't hide, we let go
We've got more than we know
My friends are a different breed
My friends are everything
Make this last, take it slow
We've got it all figured out for now
So let us live our lives without a doubt

Tonight we lie awake
Remember how the coffee made us shake
On those long drives?
One more long night
Another seven days
Heartbeat racing
The interstate, my home tonight
For one more long night

From coast to coast
I'll make the most
Of every second I've been giving with this crowd
Without a doubt
You're all I dream about
At night we lie awake
With stories taking us back
To the nights we felt alive
The nights we felt alive

I would've married you in Vegas
Had you given me the chance to say "I do"
Couldn't make it anymore obvious
Could you be anymore obvious?

I would've married you in Vegas
Had you given me the chance to say "I do"
Couldn't make it anymore obvious, could you?
Be anymore obvious, could you?

This song makes me think of summer!




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....make up tonight with you.

One more long night...

You have no idea how crazy excited I am for both of these two new albums!!!!!dshgry34whbt




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....another seven days.

And what's a crush to do...

I want either of these! Ahh I love them both:)

Oh and I've been listening to them a lot lately toooo.

"It’s starting to show
Cause you’ve been night timing baby
It’s out of control"

"You’ve got your pleasures all around you "

"I
Call you up
Every night
Telephone
Wow
You’re singing there
Every night
With the microphone
My
Favorite place
Fall asleep
Next to you
So
I wait at home
Patiently
Don’t be late "

"The girls all dance the same
And the nights all end the same
Cause I’m minding my own business for a change"

"Lord you don’t know how you’re making me feel
Singing hey nonny na na na na "




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....but you don’t take my hand.

And I'll be counting the days...

I've decided to grow my bangs out.
I've had them since 6th grade & they're getting old.

"turn the white snow red as strawberries in the summertime"

"Let the rhyme get stuck in your head,
Wish you had undressed me in your bed."

Few of my favorites right now.
Anarbor
Manchester Orchestra
Metric
Lydia









I love Taylor Swift.

My past weekend was very interesting. I've realized that signing year books is funny. People write stuff but most it's all the same thing. At least those people who you aren't super good friends with. I'm sorry I don't write a lot in year books. I do however write something from the heart. If I believe you'll do well in college then I'll write it, if I want you to have a good summer then I'll write that, and if I do want to hang out over the summer and through college then I'll write that. If not then I won't. I'm not going to fake something to try and be nice sorry. The people I care about know it and why show how much I care in a whole page to waste space for the people who never get to see you all the time like me? That's my take on it. However, there are some people I would like to see over the summer and more but I'm to much of a pussy to admit it and write that out. I wish I could tell you though.

I'm not sure if I'm prepared to graduate or feel as if it's actually happening. Don't ask me why that is b/c I don't have an answer for it. I'll try and think of one in the days to come.

Oh Joe and I baked today! We made peanut butter cookies, chocolate chip cookies, and brownies. I made a heart shaped cookie.

Random update but just wanted to explore my past days.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....that the sun goes past.

Don't trouble your pretty little head...

I find this secret a bit creepy to be honest, but he is my favorite
and my name is Amanda so at the same time it's kind of funny to me.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....there's only room for love.

I miss you so much but sadly you'll never know how much I still care about you.

When you wake up hung over...

<-My make up artist!:)
<- My hair stylist!:)

Wowzers! Senior Prom. Something we waited so long for and took about I don't know all year to plan! It's insane. Two weeks until graduation and I don't believe it yet. My prom was amazing even with drama and boys being stuuuupid. But all in all it was pretty good. Sherri did an AWESOME job with my hair. Katie did an AMAZING job on my make up also! I was so thankful to have both of them help out with it all.


My friends looked gorgeous as well. We all looked so good I was so happy. The limo ride was spent in excitedment on the way there and on the way home was spent singing Brand
New, taking wild pictures, and screaming Baby
You Got What I Need! Thankyou for all of the people who were in our limo and just hung out and partied it up! I won't forget this night ever<333




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....and wish you were sober.

But sweet talk sweetie...

These Steve Madden brand sandals are $60 and I bought
the same exact ones for only $16 yesterday!!! Sweeeeeet!




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....won't get the job done.

I'm burn burn burnin'...

God bless Melissa for this:)<3




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....my heart's giving in to my eyes.

Started my german paper! Super proud of myself.

Keepin' my heart open...

My new addiction. Loved her since forever<3





Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....while I'm only 18.

And I can hear them...

Things like this tour make me want to live on the west coast that much more.


This song has been describing me more and more these days, except there isn't a girl for me on the coast of California. I'll just switch when they say girl or her to a boy even if there isn't one out there hah. I love it as he starts to sing at 3:10-3:40.

Take me away to "2011"
I'm done with this year, I'm tired of everyone here
I just need some time alone
Before I'm ready to come back home
There's gotta be something else out there for me
I could feel it in my heart the day I started to dream
There's more than this "East Coast" town
I can't let this place keep me down

Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....calling my name tonight.

2 days!

Breaking down and coming undone...

PLEASE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Hopefully it'll change since it's the 10 day forecast.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....it's a roller coaster kind of rush.

I took a chance I took a shot...

“You ever look a picture of yourself, and see a stranger in the background? It makes you wonder how many strangers have pictures of you. How many moments of other peoples life have we been in. Were we a part of someone’s life when their dream came true or were we there when their dream died. Did we keep trying to get in? As if we were somehow destined to be there or did the shot take us by surprise. Just think, you could be a big part of someone elses life, and not even know it. ” -One Tree Hill

781.) I want to be that one girl that changes your life. I don't care about your long history. I don't care that I'm not as skinny or pretty as your past girlfriends. I want to be the different one. The one that matters. Give me a chance.

Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....you may think that I'm bullet proof but.

I am weak to your temptation...

I've been thinking and decided on some things. Number one I've decided is that people don't listen to music like they used to. I mean yeah girls always fell in love with the members of bands, but not like they do today. today girls have this mind set that they will marry, date, have kids with, one night stand, or become friends with the members. That just might be, but in all reality you won't. You won't become their best friend who they hang out with and when you see them at a show are the one on the phone with them no. It's just not likely. You'll become friends with who you're supposed to be friends with. You can't be everyones' friend. You do need to have some enemies in life or else where does the excitement go. Listening to music, you're supposed to go to a show for the music not to maybe meet your"husband" or "man of your dreams". You have plenty of time for that later in life and will probably marry a guy who will work at an office job he doesn't like and you'll do something you don't like just to get money for the kids. But hey we all have dreams and those shouldn't just leave us, so if you're lucky that won't be you, but for most it will. Number 2 I notice that all people do these days is get stressed out, run around like mad people, and have no respect for others. If everyone in the world does this then how could anyone be happy. Forget the stress and care a little less on things you should and you'll be fine. Nothing can be that crazy that you have to drive yourself mad over it. Stop and breathe for once!It's not good for your health to be insane. That's my rant ha.

P.S I had something else but it slipped my mind.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....with imagination comes obligation.

You're not looking yourself today...

Nuts nuts nuts! So much to do in the
next two weeks and it's CrAzY!!!

5/23-5/24: Work
5/25: Work?
5/26: German Night
5/27: OCC Orientation
5/28: GNHS Induction
5/29: Prom & Bre's Birfday!
5/30: MA? Work?
6/1:German stuff due

It doesn't seem like a lot but the little details
that go along with them all definitely are.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....can see it in the way your hands shake.

Such a waste of a wonderful day...

Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....wrecked and ruined by your slanderous ways.

I'd never seen these eyes before...

Completely and utterly in love with these shoes.
If only I'd have somewhere the where them.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....and just like that I was hypnotized.

So stressed out. So much stuff to do before prom for after prom. School is killing me.

Maybe I'm just a girl...

So today was a rather interesting day. I went to Joe's, got to see Bobby in his white Oompa Loompa suit, then out to lunch with Becca and grandpa. After that I came home and then set out quite an adventure. Joe, Meliss, Jayne, and I were trying to find Kate's softball game, but got completely lost and ended up walking around downtown Point Pleasant Beach. It was nice and rather lovely.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....on a mission but I'm ready to fly.

I'm taking pictures in my mind...

Yesterday we went to New York City for german class. We visited the Museum of Jewish Heritage: Living Memorial to the Holocaust. It was a great experience except I had gone last year and it was the same stuff. I want to go back without school to actually be able to look around. It was fun since I got to hang out with Val and Big John too:)










Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....so I can save them for a rainy day.

Today will be an interesting day. Going to NYC with german! Super excited. Get to hang out with Val and Big John double plus:)

Well tonight, I'll be a classic work...

There's this song I'm in love with and you see I can't seem to find it anywhere except the one place that I came across it. It rather upsets me to not be able to find it, but I will. Determination will get you places. Just do what you believe and feel is right and that'll get you to where you wish to be.

I had a very good weekend. Very good. Spending time with Meliss, Banana, Kate, and Carly was lovely. Helping out with the blood drive and knowing that we're doing something that not many young adults our age would be willing to do makes me happy. Also I hope we get to help Annie. Two great causes in one month would be superb! Dyed my hair. Loves it!

Graduation is creeping up on me. It's starting to hit me and I'm realizing that things will never be the same. I'm noticing that people are changing and that they will never be the same. I like having fun with the people I love and knowing who will be with me when I grow up. I need to make huge decisions now that'll matter for the rest of my life and those decisions will be to me what I want to do and will help me in the future. I know what I want in life and do all it take sto get there! P.S treasure your family&Joey sorry I got mad but you're a butthole sometimes<3



Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....just act like I'm not in control.

And I can't deny your eyes...

Definition of Amanda on urbandictionary.com.
A women named Amanda is typically very beautiful with an incredible body and nice eyes. They are known to be very loveable. Amandas are envied by other women.
1. Damnnn, Amanda's lookin' fine today, as usual.
2. I wish I was Amanda, shes so pretty and nice!

People want to be me. I always knew it. Ha!




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....then you threw me up against the wall.

You gave me butterflies...

Front of my mom's card. I still draw like a little kid.
I wanted to print out a picture, but have no ink.




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....at the mailbox.

And in case you were wondering...

For some reason right now I'm ticked off at Joe.
He calls me and asks me to call him back when I can.
I do and then he says he's busy and that I didn't
want to listen anyway but thanks. I did want to
listen and if he just said hi or something on the
stupid phone instead of can't talk, he would've known.

Anyway...on a better note. :) Tomorrow is Mother's Day.
I'm making my mom a card, buying her flowers, and
getting her a donut and Dunkin Donuts coffee.
I wanted to get her car steering fixed but that's a
couple hundred dollars and I only have a couple tens haha.
This is what I'm writing on the inside of her card.

It's so very true. I wish I told her I loved her more<3




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....you are like a hurricane to me.

My sister is a Coke addict and she's not afraid to admit it.

Mama don't like it when you got leftovers...

Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....just gimme me some of them collard greens.

In between reality & dreams...

Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....it's not as high as love.

They show me all I need...

Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....tonight you'll steal the scene.

You're fragile and you're strong...

Running two blood drives for Warped Tour 2009!




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
.....a beautiful and perfect combination.

Never let you off...

Love her<3!




Be sweet and keep smiling. :)
