Hi. I'm Katie :)

So I'm not going to lie... this week was pretty f!@#ing rad. As I reminisce, nothing pops out and says, "damn. that sucked." I can only think of things that say, "damn. that was even better than I had anticipated!" It was a really good week. Let's take a look, shall we?!

MONDAY

On Monday I drove 3.5 hours (208 miles, to be precise) to visit that guy. Logan. He's one of my best friends. I've tried to pinpoint why/how we became such good friends, but I am at a complete loss. He's just one of those people you find and are thankful for. Anywho, we went to the beach (I made PB&J sandwiches and packed some snacks for a picnic because I'm awesome like that) and I kept calling Lake Michigan the ocean. I also got to meet some of Logan's neato friends, Brett and Chelsea, and had some fun with them as well. We walked along a pier, went putt-putt golfing (I got a hole-in-one, which I can safely count as a miracle), and then rocked out in the back yard with two kickass acoustic guitars and four stellar voice boxes. All in all, the day gets a high five for being supacool.

TUESDAY

During the day on Tuesday, we went to this place called "the beach." You see, where I live, we don't really have beaches. So the fact that there were so many beaches along the other side of the state fascinated me. I just sat in the sand and played for a few hours. Then we went back to the house, got changed, and went to see a fanfreakingtastic concert and a kickin' movie.

So first, the concert (whose main pictures can be seen in the album on my page). 

It.
was.
awesome.
And I'm not even exaggerating a little. I know that I use the phrase "awesome" like it's going out of style, but that's because there are so many funtasticular things in my life that can really only be described by the word to describe SOMEthing AWE-inspiring. And trust me, I was in awe. First, we experienced THE READY SET. I will go on the record and say that Jordan Witzigreuter is tremendous. He put on such a good show! And the whole crowd was involved! I mean, even the lumpiest dudes in the venue couldn't help but jump around when Joe-dannn played his set. It was so good. And then Christofer Drew and his band for Never Shout Never came onto the stage and entertained the masses. Now this dude is eccentric and very different from the usual band-dudes I see on stage, but that just made his set that much more unique! I loved when he stopped mid-chorus, grabbed a water, took a drink and said, "Water tastes good in my mouth." Then he threw the water in the crowd and picked up right where he left off. HA! What a ham. He's one cool dude. Yada yada yada. Then. The moment I'd been waiting for. The sixth time I'd get to see Boys Like Girls!!1! And they started off with LOVE DRUNK! AH! It was awesome. Their whole set was awesome. Five Minutes to Midnight. On Top of the World. UP AGAINST THE WALL! Eep! That one is by far my favorite song live. The lights, the sounds, the inescapable, overwhelming feeling of omaigawd-my-fav-band-still-rocks!! Sigh. It was such a great show. More than worth the wait. 

Aaaand Boys Like Girls announced their fall tour with Cobra Starship, The Maine, and A Rocket To The Moon. AWESOME!

Lalala. After the show, I quickly got to meet Jordan of The Ready Set. Haha, but I stupidly took a "picture" of me with him while my camera was still in video mode. OH WELL! Next we high-tailed it over to the theatre where we waited to watch HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE. Damn. I soaked in every bit of that movie.

WEDNESDAY

Oh hey, somewhere in there it became tomorrow... which was actually a few days ago... anywho, on Wednesday I watched the new HP6. I thought it was pretty rad. Verrry different from the books, but still good. And after the movie, we went back to the house and hung around for a little bit. I finally ate dinner, too. Actually, I think I just swallowed my sandwich whole because I was so hungry I didn't even need to taste the food. It just needed to get in my belly.

Sleep. Sleep. Sleep. OH! Finally time to wake up... I have come to find that I prefer being awake and daydreaming that asleep and for-realsie dreaming... much more fun for me. Now, where was I? Oh yes! I woke up and showered because I was filthy. And I just hung out with Logan a little more until I left to come home. On the drive back, all I listened to were the 3 songs on The Ready Set's EP. If you don't own it, GO BUY IT! Because it's awesome. Trust me.

Let's see... I got home around 6:30 pm, where I was greeted by the two doggies in my house. Goodness gracious, tho... I can't even remember what I did the rest of that day. So, moving on to...

THURSDAY/FRIDAY/SATURDAY

Hmmm. What did I do yesterday? I know that I went grocery shopping at some point in time. And I may or may not have listened to "Stays Four The Same" by The Ready Set 100 times.

Then today... Friday?... nope, we are now into Saturday, so.... yesterday, Friday, I for sure did nothing. It is 1:07 am on Saturday and I am still in the pajamas I went to sleep in on Thursday. Once I turned on my laptop Friday morning, it was hello buzznet/facebook/email, goodbye society. I'm sure you all know how that goes.

FUTURE

As of right now, Logan, Brett, and Chelsea are coming to stay at my house at the end of July for the Warped Tour. It's going to be off the f!@#ing chain. But before they get here, I really want to start playing my guitar. My fantabulous twin sister Jill bought it for me for Christmas a couple years back and I have always wanted to do more with it. So that's going to be what I do during the day over the next 12 days. I figure if I practice enough, I'm bound to be able to learn something. So wish me luck!

That's all for nao! Okaebai.
