| | Unbelieveable, I actually spent 3 hours writing papers yesterday. But it's college so it's Ok. I miss home and some friends of mine in particular, to tell you the truth I even miss the rents and the house. But here It's so much easier to do what you want. Laudary is always a trip, they give us 6 washers for like 300 here in whiteface. So you either wait the whole day to wash your underpants or get lucky. But other than that there is a lot of diversity here on campus. Like last friday I played pickup soccer behind Memorial hall and at least 85% of them were from eitehr Jamaica or Africa, even southeast Asia. I love it. Not to mention the crazed rapist gunman we had stroll through our peaceful town and cap a cop. Plus every morning I look at my window to a beautiful view and the ladies across the way in Banks Hall.. O yes, I saw the Exorsist of Emily Rose, and I was very pleased, it scared the shit out of me. I went a drunk Justin and 1/2 drunk Chris, I'm surprised they even could keep focused and there voices down. So the point is go see the flick with some intoxicated friends or even yourself. That's all. I miss all the bro's and cats that I can't see everyday here. Au revoir. | comments: Leave a comment  |
| Well well, long fucking time huh. I've been at college for about 2 weeks now. The life is pretty much what they say, you either party a whole fucking lot, study hard, or do both. I'm sticking close to the last one. To tell you the truth, college is the best thing ever happened to me. I got all the freedom I need to make my own decisions. So all in all it's a real trip..plenty of women and I've met so many bro's and cats it's unbelieveable. Some of the teachers are stale though, but that comes with the territory. Well I hope all is well and I hope those getting ready for their next year of Highschool and what not, have a killer time, later my hebie geebies....

| Things have been busy around the Barella household lately no time to fuck with writing what I'm thinking everyday. I'm working two jobs nowadays, at Subway and a lifeguard. I need the money for school this fall. I've been playing soccer in the yard just about everyday to get ready for try-outs this fall. Our last show in Carthy was a hit. We were the only band that played and the place was full of dudes above 25 and kids around like fuck'n 12. No but seriously it wasn't that bad, we played awesome everyone thought. Recording coming up soon. Gonna have a 10 song album this time, it's going to blow your minds, I wouldn't lie and my ego isn't that large you smucks. Today went to Water Safari, had a 'blast' with the rents and Lyle. Ok that's that kids, I'm out and stay together for the.....kids.
I'm just a failure, feeling better than I ever have before. | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment  |
| "it's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right, I hope you "_had_" the time of your life." how ironically often do you find yourself wishing your high school days weren't over. Yup, it's official, I graduated last Friday around 8:00. I'm relieved yet know that I'm gonna miss having a direction in life. Sure, I'm going to college, but what after that, I'm on my own kids, and to tell you the truth I wanna be, but don't how to deal with it.....Show July 9th in downtown Carthy, Battle of the Bands they say, gotta call some John guy tomorrow, hopefully it's final. Pick up Terminal and Scary Kids tomorrow or this weekend, you'll enjoy.

| Well, well, long time no say huh cats. I've been as busy as Donald Trump in the sack. Schools only got a week and a half left, I'm counting down, but not sure why. When I leave I'm going to be sad as hell, not scared really, I kow what I wanna do, but I'm gonna miss all my friends and teachers, especially Durgin, man. I need another job that pays more than than the shitbox I work in now. I gotta pay back that loan of like 10 grand for 4 years some how, or I'll just be in debt until the grave. Besides that, the nice weather is coming and it feels nice and makes me happy, I wanna go to the beach a lot this summer. Speaking of that, anyone want to buy a truck. It's an '87 Nissan Pathfinder, White, '98 factory engine, new rotors and breaks, new tires, good body, approx. 80,000 mi. for $1,750. This is a good deal, "it's gonna be huge Tom, HUGE!" What a fucking joke that fat prick is, but anyway yeah if you wanna look at 'er give me a buzz at 629-5835 or cell phone 286-5206.
P.s. buy the new Sherwood album, "sing but, keep going," it's exquisite. later.

| I'm going to let everyone know that my most recent heart-throb in movies has to be The Notebook. No shits and giggles guys, this movie was definitely worth the hour and 45 minutes. I almost cried, now that's saying a lot. Lately I have been working to finish these projects for my classes and writing music. The band just finished writing a new one, it's sounds very Indie-Alternative I must say, but it's abso-fabo cats. Show the 12th of June be there or be....you know. Alrighty then, good-night to all and i have to say that I love women......thank you.

| Spring Break.....hmmm.....consisted of drinking, plenty of bodacious babes, moped rides till the early hours of the morning, nice road trip, other unmentionable acts, and the memory of it all..priceless. All in all I enjoyed my white ass off. Speaking of white toosh's, I got a nice tan down in the tropics of SC. Played guitar on the beach for a wide variety of of chicks. No shit, half the women down there looked in their 20's, but were my age and amazingly beautiful. I recieved no poon-tang, so don't clap yet..Write me and tell me how your break went. On the flipizzle I wrote a new song for my acoustic ensemble, I'm doing pretty good I'd say. No title yet, any suggestions...just give me a random few words to toss around. ok..

| | Well tater-tots, tonight at approximately midnight I will be on the road for my first real adventure!!!....not. But anyway, no, tonite at midnight we're leaving for Myrtle Beach, everyone's meeting at Longway's that we talked to, and then we are convoying down to South Carolina, bitches. No stopping, no sleeping this is going to be very treacherous, so better watch your back Batman....So yes after all the stress went away last at about 130 I felt good. This morning I packed all my nick nac's in bubble paper and was prepared to leave home...Ha. Ok, so yesterday, skipped school, went to breakfast with Heather, Ty, and G at Denny's. Then went to the mall, shopped, saw half the school there...lame, and then me and G watched 'The Amityville Horror.' Which was fucking fantastic! I loved it, the damn movie had everything. Plenty of horror, action, and all the good shit a horror flick is supposed to have. And yes it was very scary, probably one of the best horror flicks since 'The Thing.' I was pleased, so I say to each and every one of you poor bastards, treat yourself to a good-ass movie. Well ok, that's about it then, hope you guys enjoy your spring break, I sure as hell will. Peace cats///...... | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment  |
| To begin this, i would like to say that blue skies do indeed not make blue moods, but happy days guys. I love it when I can see the sun and feel it at the same time, very beautiful I believe this summer will be. Hopefully next week at Myrtle Beach it's beautiful and full of suprises cats..Lots of clubbing and balcony parties because it just so happens that our hotel is 12 stories high. Ok, now back to present time. Friday night was the talent show. There were plenty of horse-shit acts, and I wasn't suprised at all. I was in it, but didn't place at all. I'm not bragging, but my two songs "Pretty, Pretty by The Early Novembre.." and "Amber by me" were tight as hell and I'll tell you right now everyone loved it. I got the most affect from the crowd, but the judges are just "playing favorites," fuck'em then!! Lastly I want to comment on the band "The Academy Is...," which is a fucking stellar indie-rock band, that has a lovely sound. They are perfect..I mean perfect. So if you have the inclination to pick up this CD please do, you'll enjoy the hell out of it.. Ok, that's it then, I hope I didn't bore you ass clowns to death. Later....
'This table has taken a turn for the worse. Rock bottom, and over the edge, well it's not like it hurts that much anyway. Upside down and inside out, when I leave I'm going alone well it's not like it hurts that much anyway. Attention, attention, may I have all your eyes and ears if only, if only for one second, and will you hear what I have to say? Oh, did I mention when I see you that it stings like hell due to the fact that we could have something that'll never happen.......' | comments: 8 comments or Leave a comment  |
| Tired and eloquent describes this day in itself and most likely every other day of the fucking year...I want to ask a question to every and all. Tell me if these lyrics that I WROTE, sound good:
"hello to you world if you only knew how nice it was to look at, to gaze out into your deep blue..your deep blue eyes. And to feel the wind off your currents and breezes her hair and meets her skin with a smile and crumble any man where he stood, where he stands in the sand as the warm tide rushes in to wash away any remnance of the night before, of your footsteps, the memory....This is not real, so unreal that I'm blessed with her presence, I'm dreaming..it's to bright to see that she's an angel as pure as the sky itself and the clouds above, oh how I wish I knew her name and so does everyone else, but those who knew they told me, those who knew they told me that...."
Well that's only the first verse, tell me if they're good, not like i'm gonna care anyway, but just some input would be nice okie dokie. Later.......... Oh by the way the song's called "Amber.." | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment  |
| Well then.........let's start with this. First show yesterday in Carthage at the Elks with some pretty good bands. We all had fun there and at Denny's afterwards. Holy Shit I tell you right now everyone in the place was hating us when we got started. If you don't know me and mike we always laugh at the dumbest shit. So we were laughing the whole damn time while we were throwing food and spitting spitballs. We stained the wall behind mike and not to mention the floor and the seats. It was so wrong and hooligan-ish, but what the hell I'm all for spontaneous fun.. Anyway, back to the show. We played with VHS, Dead Riot, Avignon, and LSF. They all had something different to offer the crowd. I saw plenty of familiar faces and met some new ones too. The experience itself playing with LSF was very tight. Avignon too was a very together band. Ok change of subject. I a few weeks I will hopefully be on a roadtrip for Spring Break with some buddies. No rents, no rules (not any I can tell), and pure fucking fun. My parents said I could so as long as Tyler gets his car and shit. So after all that it's smooth flying cats. I cna;t wait. School is also an issue, but my grades are good so I should be all set. Alrighty that's it, o and by the way my favorite movie of all time has got to be Edward Scissorhands, I flat out love it dudes. And the ring 2 blows about as much cock as anyone one person can fit in their mouth, Ha. Later.. | comments: 3 comments or Leave a comment  |

| Well tomorrow I'm off to haven for business men, New York City. I have to go visit my college, but afterwards we're check out the scenery. I've never been though so should be quite an experience. I haven't updated in let's see....20 years, yeah that's because at Sectionals I wasn't pleased with the times I swam, I could've done better or maybe not. But yes I've been down before, but this takes the cake dudes, b/c now I'm done forever and I'm going to miss it so much you have no idea. Well that's life.."this is Walgreen's." The bands been making some superb progress and it's really starting to pay off. We just got done recording our acoustic demo with ant last friday, sounds flavorish cats, real high quality shit. So I'm looking foward to recording with Matt and Shawn from Avignon. If you've heard of Ready Set Fail, 3 out of the 4 from that band make this powerhouse. Tyler, Matt, and Shawn. Well anyway so I'm looking foward to that, and once again time is flying by so fast I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to catch it this time. Alrighty then, "you enjoy yourself, and come back now you hear."

| "You can make a plan Carve it into stone Like a feather falling It is still unknown Until the clock speaks up Says it's time to go You could choose the high Or the lower road You might clinch your fist You might fork your tongue As you curse or praise All the things you've done And the faders move And the music dies As we pass over On the arc of time
So you nurse your love Like a wounded dove In the covered cage of night Every star is crossed By phrenetic thoughts That seperate and then collide And they twist like sheets Till you fall asleep And they finally unwind It's a black balloon It's a dream you'll soon deny
I hear if you make friends With Jesus Christ You will get right up From that chalk outline And then you'll get dolled up And you'll dress in white All to take your place In his chorus line
And then in you'll come With those marching drums In a saintly compromise No more whiskey slurs No more blonde haired girls For your whole eternal life And you'll do the dance That was choreographed At the very dawn of time Saying, I told you son The day would come You would die, you'd die, you'd die, you'd die You would die, you'd die, you'd die, you'd die You would die, you'd die, you'd die, you'd die You would die, you'd die, you'd die
To the deepest part Of the human heart The fear of death expands Till we crack the code We have always known But could never understand On a circuit board We will soon be born Again, again, again, again And again, again, again, again And again, again, again, again And again, again, again...."

| Today, guess what beotches!.....I won FL Champion in the 100 breaststoke. Do you know what that shit means I'm the fastest MOFO in the North Country. I'm quite the critic though, I could've done better. I almost broke my school record, don't worry though cats, i still got Sectionals next weekend to make up for that. Me and two other boys from the team, the "fantastic 3" all got 4 FL All-Stars, we came in third overall in the meet. So you could say that overall it was a damn good day.
"I'm drowning in my sleep, I'm drowning in my sleep....."

| I'm gonna say that the Early November show rocked the fucking house. Engine Down cancelled, but A thorn for every heart and Fire when ready made up for that. Lats but not least TEN played their asses off, and the crowd was loving every minute of it. Serg climbed up on the rafters and then dropped and crowd surfed how nuts is that shit, reminds me of 342. I sang along to all their songs and was just having a heluva good time. Some guys were trying to start a mosh, but that fizzled mainly because people were like what the fuck, how do you mosh to ace enders. Well anyway I loved every minute of it. O yeah by the way Days Away was there, and they lets say......blew ass. If you like Yanni, they are your guys. Back to school tomorrow and new classes hope they keep me interested. I'm gonna go get a car wash now, hope the sunshine lasts, I can't wait till summer. Lata!

| I'm going to start with this, you never forget your first and your last bros cats. This sucked the big one and I say this a whole lot, but this time it does seem to make things all better. I guess all I can do is wait it out for the good or the bad. Anyway now for the good shit. The swim team is now 7-5 our best record in 7 years, tell me that those aren't the coolest numbers yet. I'm going to be swimming my ass off against Lowville and Carthage this week and I'm goona try and win everything. The band has 5 songs now and me and mike still gotta finish the vox on that acoustic track. My truck is in the shop again, can you say P.O.S. that's pretty much what is stopping me from doing all my things. I haven't slept in like 2 weeks and I can't wait till regents week, we get 4 days off unless you have finals or regents. I don't except for photo. Ok, that's about it I can't really think of much right now, hope all you dudes have fun with everything you do. Lata

I know that you know i'll be back i'll be home i'm tired of telling you something that you already know and we'll make it through this if i had just one wish if my dreams all come true then your dreams will too somewhere out there" | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment  |
