Keeping Out of Direct Sunlight

We are the ones with the radiating eyes. We are the Ones who have a fire inside. We are the ones only we can recognize. We've been rejected (we've been rejected)- Suffered the ignorance, suffered the selfishness, been pushed so far down now comes our time to surface. Turn from the light, that made them all go blind. We've been protected (we've been protected) ALL ARISE TO WHAT WE BRING,OUTSTRETCHED HANDS, UNFOLDED WINGS. We've hurt ourselves, and I feel the sting of broken hearts and burning wings...

Today was a good day. It started out kind of sucky with me sleeping through my alarm up and almost being late to work. But once at work, it was fairly good. It was a very, very slow day. We only had a few customers so it was nice and easy. After work, my dad and I went shopping and I got myself some soymilk, fruit rolls, mascara and eyeliner. Then when I arrived at home, Mike called me. He wanted to hang out and we took a hell of a time trying to figure out what we should do. Eventually we decided to just hang out at his house until we think of something better. I called Bryan to see if he wanted to join us but he said no because he was reading the new Harry Potter book. I asked him if Harry Potter was more important than his friends were and he said yes… Loser. This is coming from the kid who reads a single book every couple years. Oh well, I changed out of my work uniform and waited for Mike to come pick me up. When he showed up at my house he informed me that on the way to my house he had gotten in a fight with his dad and he stopped the car and got out to walk the rest of the way to my house, leaving his dad in the road. So we decided to walk the two miles to the bus stop and go to the mall. Well while we were leaving I decided to see what my dad was doing. Eventually it led to me asking if he was willing to drive us both to the Tacoma Mall (a much better mall). He agreed. I was excited because that meant that I could go to a Hot Topic. When we got there, we turned the corner, literally and walked a couple feet to the Hot Topic. It is like a magnet. Well anyway, I walked past the cds and usually I don’t bother looking because they are usually expensive but I did and I saw that AFI’s The Art of Drowning was on sale! I bought it right away. I’ve wanted this cd for a year now. I was excited. We walked back and forth through the mall. Mike and I checked out people. There were barely any teenagers at the mall so finding attractive people was hard. Though we saw this really hot milf. And later there was a cute boy working at Hot Topic. Mike saw a few hot chicks, I thought they were alright. This chick glared at me. What else? Well later, we went into Spencer’s and I saw this AFI shirt that was on sale for 9.98! I was sort of disappointed because it was a new design and I didn’t really like. Then next to it I found a Bullet For My Valentine shirt. Mike was smart and took the sale sticker off of the AFI shirt and put it on the BFMV one. So instead of paying 19.99, I paid 9.98. Yes, I fell terrible about ripping off a fellow AFI fan that now has to pay 19.99 for that AFI shirt but… it’s not their best design. I mean, red sparkles? So now I have a BFMV shirt! Yay! I was going to buy this amazing plaid skirt from Hot Topic but I figured it was too much. I would have bought if I weren’t saving my money for Warped Tour. Oh well, it was still a good day AND I finally have a version of A Story At Three that doesn’t have annoying loud pops in the middle of the song. The album art is also amazing as I already knew but now I actually have the art in my hands. My new shirt is also very soft and I am going to wear it at the Rise Against concert tomorrow. Like I said, good day.

OMG! I almost forgot to meantion that I asked Hot Topic if they were having a listening party for Blaqk Audio and they are! I'm so excited!
