critical mass here in chicago is one of the craziest things iv done in a while. There is no comparison to the size of LA's. Friday there must have been anywhere from 500- 1000 riders who gathered! It started off slow taking up every lane on the streets for several blocks, i often found my self walking my bike because there was not enough road room to ride. As the ride started to spread out we wound up doing circles in the biggest intersections, bringing traffic to a stand still for at least 15 minutes. Several times we would engulf a taxi with people in while the meter was still running. Then the real fun began. SO there was a car trying to get though the hundreds of riders and usually on person just stands in front of a car to make it stop so everyone can get through safely, but this stupid old man with his poor old wife in the back did not want to stop. there were 6 of us in front of his car trying to make him stop and he keep inching forward and began to run or one the guys bikes over. The riders get really upset when cars don't acknowledge us. All the riders began banging on the car and as the old man tried to speed a way someone took their lock and smashed in the back window. It was a pretty intense ordeal but we rode on, till we hit the freeway. I dint think it could get much crazier while we were on the on ramp of the the freeway taking over one lane at a time until we took over all five lanes of the road. We rode for about 15 minutes on the freeway till a cops came at forced us off, then we headed to the beach for the final stop. ill post pictueres of the ride along with my pompoms once i get my film developed.

good day everyone

Ok so 2 days ago decided i wanted to start a pom pom revolution. i made about 10 sets of 3 pom poms to start hanging wherever i go. It started off as a project for class that i wanted to expand and continue. i feel like its a really fun and easy project to keep me busy, but apparently most of my friends here think its the stupidest thing ever and want to constantly give me shit about hanging pom poms up. I dont really care if its stupid, sorry i don't see any of these rich bitches coming out with ANY ideas to make there stay here worth while. all i hear from them is constant complaining while i witness them spend absurds amounts of money on the most expensive alcohol, clothes, and food. I cant keep up with this. They apparently don't mind paying for me all the time which is very nice of them but i don't want to become the mooch of the group and always find my self going to an ATM to pay people back. i really wish i had friends here that were more down to earth and everything didn't revolve around money/appearance. i guess i miss everyone at home and how none of us cared about what each other though, we would always support one another no matter what. I miss you guys and i hope you doing well.

ps
i saw sigur ros the other night and it was epic, i still cant get over how good it was! Tonight is hot chip.

chicago. so im really liking it here. there are so many things to do and so many cool people. Weather so far has been very good to me but with in 2 months its apparently going to be fucking freezin! yikes! Luckily me and my korean roomate get along just fine, although i have to admit i get annoyed sometimes because hes very naive, asks too many questions, and makes tons of broad statements about "caucasians" and "african americans"

Tomorrow i will be seeing high places for their album release show. Iv been going to a lot of shows as usual. Last nigh i saw ratatat finally for the fist time and it was soooo goood! I saw flosstradamus last wendsday and holy fuck the week before. I think i might of found a concert buddy to come along with me since iv been going everywhere alone. everyone here just wants to stay in the dorms and/or drink all the time which i usually find to boring since im so restless. So this weekend was one to remember, i consumed too much liquor and i decided im going to cut back. I finally got a bike and i love riding again. Iv been spending a lot of time exploring chicago and getting lost. It's a beautiful city but once again these adventures are usually happening by myself because my friends here are too lazy/sheltered to leave downtown. I can barely ever eat out because i need to save my money, i am taking most of the storage space up in our kitchen with my groceries so i dont have to eat out. tomorrow i have my first job interview so hopefully by the end of the month i will be working. Im really missing LA and cant wait to be back in december and ill probably get a new tattoo! hope everyone is doing swell i have to get back to doing my homework.
ps sorry i never responded to anyone from the last post, iv been very busy with school.

so i made it, 4 years ago this would have seemed like an impossible dream but now that im here it came so suddenly. Summer lasted what seemed like a week, its still has not hit me that the reality of the situation is i wont see those i love for 4 month...I feel i packed my whole life away and and i cant unpack for another 4 years. Im so happy to be starting a new portion of my life because i have huge dreams ahead, but i dont know if i was ready to leave it all behind. things seems so perfect in the life i created in south pass. the scariest thing is i feel things wont ever be the same. High school is over im 18. an adult. Im going to miss seeing the random faces at school even though we might have not been the best of friend or i might not have even known them there are some people i probably wont ever see again and our relationships are changed forever. anyway im meeting my Koren roommate today, i think we'll get along just fine. Think positive!

things to do:
settle into dorm
meet new people
explore chicago
get job/save money

things not to do:
loose contact with friends
spread myself to thinly
be anti social

This was a GOOD weekend everything was perfect! i hope there are many more of these to come before summer ends and i leave to chicago and our lives change. The senior play was postpone to the 14th but now we can focus on perfecting our acting and getting a set. The more i thing about college the more i think about everything im going to miss and the new opportunities ahead. Its crazy to think everything is going so perfect and im actually going to be going to a college my parent never though we could afford. Even though im soooooo busy i feel really good about everything. Four years ago as a freshman i could have never imagined to have completed so many of my goals.
Have a good nigh everyone, and enjoy the rest of your senior year. theres no going back.

last nights party:

Im so glad i got to see junior senior last week it was soo much fun. Sunset jnction was fun as well! Comming up this week, Daniel Johnston, Fuck yeah Fest, and hopefully a bike ride. I know most people wont under stand but i think of CSSSA everyday and how i wish it never eneded. Also things i have to do this week are; get my licence, Senior portrait, work. I have major thinking to do about collage. im excepting the fact that my parents might be right about community collage and how it will save so much money if i transfer to ether Calarts, or Chicago. summer is almost over and i dont want school to start yet im having too good of a time to go back to the normal routine.
