wake up, little sushi

Guess WHAT! i am sitting at my kitchen table. I FINALLY HAVE INTERNET AT MY APT! marissa saw some guy outside while fighting for the cafes under us internet connection, and he offered to tell us the password for his apt's internet. so dope. so how about an update?
-i have a job. i work at the rio grade cafe, right across the street from my house in the old train station. it's pretty alright.. i'm not making much money yet but that's prob cause i still suck. also, there's only a couple people my age and no one is lds, but nonetheless most everyone seems pretty cool.
-by the way schools going, i'm looking forward to two A's and 2 D's, whoops
-i applied to the U, i should get in. if i don't... word up uvu
-i'm looking for a place to live for fall and possibly summer. i want to live in a house in sugar house along with krystle and hopefully marissa come winter. keep your eyes peeled for me?
-i saw the squirrel nut zippers in vegas. but not only did i see them, i kicked it with them. i conversed with them. will (the bass/keyboard player) is helping james become famous and his potential gf katherine whalen, is the nicest lady i have ever met. they invited us to their house in chapel hill, north carolina, and katherine informed me "we could cook, garden, or whatever i like to do." what a freaking peach.
-i still love marissa.
-my hair is blonde. well, white to be more exact.
-i plan to do my laundry today for the second time since i've lived in this apartment. i'm also going to start working out so as to fit back into my clothing.
-it's warm!!!! summers coming!!!!!!!!!!
-life is pretty much gettin there.
-<3

valen times

OH LOOK. a new blog. i bet you all thought i died. well i didn't.
HEY KIDSSS, I BET YOU THOUGHT THAT I WAS DEAADDD
BUT WHEN I FELL OVER I JUST BROKE MY LEGS AND GOT A HEMORAGE IN MY HEAAAADDDDD.
good song.

lets venture to update land:
i just got a 70 on my test.
i have 1 and 1/2 friends.
i'm going to california tonight.
i will go to mexico very soon.
i probably still don't have a job.
it's the dumbest day of the year, happy!
i miss my sister, patti, my current cats, my old cat, lisa, my old life, my old life before that, caring about stuff, warmth, dryness, nothingness, gold, knowing what is going on, etc
there are like 36 books in this library
i live off of cookies and candy
after studying gender, i have realized that life is to be lived not associating with boys, they are no good.
i'm probably going to study gender at the U.
who have i become?
i don't talk much theeeeeeeeese dayyyyyyysssssssss
i haven't seen royal tennenbaums in far too long
i miss DE ANZA
i don't know how i feel about having got a 70 on my test, i guess it's good since i barely studied.
i don't think i care about music anymore
i can't really think of anything i care about
i miss driving to carmel twice a week. i miss the beach and the mist and the music in my ears.
and the anticipation and knowing something good was right around the corner.
things fall apart. (i don't know why we bother at all!)
but life is good, and it's always worth living.. at least for a while.
i think.

the books

afton: (mumble) --- book is boring me.
addie: what book?
afton: facebook!
addie: hahahahahaha
afton: i bet people will talk like that someday, call the things they read online books.

i am in provo and am OBSESSED WITH AFTON. that is all.

condolences lebowski

i just want to apologize to everyone i took advantage of in provo. basically every one i knew. i miss you. mean it.

zip it

i'm going to a squirrel nut zippers show on wed, which reminds me i wanted to share james' texts with you all from when he met them. you can guess my responses and questions in between. here we go:

1. I'm watching the band set up.
2. Katharine whalen just walked by me. She is tall and beautiful.
3. Katharine whalen just gave me her home address and -- in all seriousness -- said the band often has openings and wants to keep in touch with me.
4. It was entirely her idea. Talking about ukeleles . Told her i make tunes. She asked what i played and then said LET ME HAVE YOUR INFO
5. I need a change of pants
6. I'm backstage with Jimbo as he and the sax player are doing a demo. I seriously can't believe i'm sitting here with my favorite songwriter next to Tom waits

side note, me and james hung out with henry the sax player in san jose during christmas break.
sooooo, this little trip we're taking should be fruitful considering james will be instated in the zippers, and i will mack with henry. and james will mack with katherine. it will be a grand ol' time. LoLoLoL
gooooooot nite

hold your glass up

hi. i took a vacation from blog world for a while. actually, i took a vacation from life. and i feel like i'm still there. i was in california which was more pleasant than average, due to the friendships of lisa noon, james mcomber, kelly carlsted, and marissa paolacci. i enjoy those humans. i haven't any highlights to divulge except maybe going to chipotle 5 days in a row (and subsequently gaining 5 pounds, so worth it.) now i'm back in utah but in a different location known at the SALTY LAKE. marissa jaque and i moved into a lovely artspace bridge project right downtown. 1 second away from a homeless shelter, 5 seconds away from in the venue, 10 seconds away from gateway, 20 seconds away from school, 30 seconds away from big city soup. you get the point. it's becoming great but i do however still feel like i'm on vacation because i don't feel at home here yet. slc was always the place we'd come to get away. to party it up. forget about life. but now i LIVE here and it's just odd to know that i have to do homework and get a job etc. i'm feeling unmotivated but hopefully that will change as we get more settled in our apartment and life. wish me luck.

i want to give a shout out to all the poor suckers back in provo. jk. i love you all. remember me.
