Oh man. Those pics are fucking hilarious. I re-found them today and wow. Just WOW. I can't even breathe. My stomach feels like it's gonna explode from laughter. That night was hilarious we were all really high taking ridiculous pics on photobooth and eating Parle Gs. Oh them, Parle Gs! Make life so much better, I swear. ROFL. ROFL. ROFL. (From left to right - Lucie, 'Manda, Me)
I'm listening to "Cross My Heart" by Mariana's Trench my favourite guilty pleasure song at the moment. It's damn catchy, okay. I really haven't updated this in a while. So let's see:
- got my FAKE ID, bitches!

- going to Ireland for spring break
- Summer '09 = epic ---> KENYA, PARIS, TOKYO, INDONESIA - missing Warped Tour but WHATEVZ.
bad news:
Nichola and I are getting at each other's throats. I talked to Nat about it. She says it's normal that we're getting annoyed at each other, I mean we see each other every freaking day and we pretty much spend every dying second together. I don't know I'm just starting to get miffed at her because she's extremely insecure and she always displays them in front of me and as much as I tell her she's so effing gorgeous (which she is) and that she's fucking amazing she can't seem to notice that for herself. And she always freaks out about the lamest things and then she ends up having anxiety attacks + she's constantly borrowing my clothes (I don't mind once and a while but she's been doing it a lot lately) and okay, this is kinda lame but she got the same AA turquoise hoodie as me. I mean I told her she should get one but I didn't think she'd end up getting the same one. I know it's extremely idiotic of me and lame but it's just one of those things that bother me. I don't AA hoodies are really popular, don't get me wrong I am completely aware but when it's one of your friends and they kinda always copy you it's kinda irritating, y'know?
Oh yeah, so Friday I was going to chill with Frankie and Nichola and then all of a sudden Jack rings me. He was like "hey our original photographer broke his wrist and I just wondering if you were free? " I told him I'd do it. It was actually freaking hilarious. I have to say propz for taking initiative FOR ONCE. Well it was FUCKING HELLA COLD. Considering we live in Canada and it's January and it's literally the coldest month ever it was like -4832048230943092432. I knew J, Allan & Nate and I met their guitarist Adam. It was pretty coo'. I took shots of them near the traintracks/on them for the first couple of pics. It was freaking hilarious because they were surprisingly HELLA comfortable around me and they were super chill. I let them choose what to do but I also suggested some ideas if they were stuck. It was funny at first because you could tell they got a bit uncomfortable at the beginning - considering it was their first "band photoshoot" and it was the first time I ever did a "band photoshoot." There's this hilar pic of them where all of them except J have their pants down I was laughing so hard because they were SO CHILL about it. They were completely themselves and were making rude/inappropriate jokes e.g "THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!" and they would yell out obscenities it was quite funny. We also did shots at the skate park and polaroids shots + individuals. It was fun stuff. I thought it was definitely the most interesting shoot/funniest I had ever done because here I was hanging out wit Nat's brother & his friends. It wasn't awkward AT ALL, either! I mean I have this feeling that J has a thing for me or just thinks really highly of me as a person. He talked to me a lot and explained how each band member contributes different things to the band which creates the dynamic amongst them.
Jack = leader, takes control of everything but is very open-minded to everyone's decisions/ideas etc.
Allan = the funny guy always making everyone laugh
Adam = the "genius" one of the bunch, very organized, most logical
Nate = really awesome guitarist but extremely stubborn and negative/narrow-minded
I have to say Allan is one of the FUNNIEST people I have ever met in my entire life. I could sense the tension between Jack & Nate/Nate & the band. He was really stubborn about a lot of the ideas the rest of the band had/I had and he never wanted to do any of the ideas. It was quite irritating. J informed me how he quit the band for a week because of stupid argument. Lame. Stubborn child.
Well it was definitely a fun day for sure. I kinda got to know J and his friends better. I'm doing their myspace and banners etc. It's quite exciting. They also really enjoyed the photos so that's good. It's just nice to experiment and have fun yet you learn from the mistakes. Now I know for future band photoshoots I'll know how to position everyone better it's just difficult to get the product you want because everyone has to co-operate.
p.s I've been feeling really content lately so that's awesome. I mean despite everything I'm doing well, I just need to work on getting focused and just do well. Freaking a. I have 2 major tests soon GOTTA FOCUS. But I am so freaking ADD these days. Oh, lordy. What am I gonna do with myself.
p.p.s Nat says my confidence has grown A LOT within the past year. I feel proud of myself. =) + proud of my band shots seriously I was really scared they wouldn't fancy them.
