I've waiting my whole life for tonight, but this is only the beginning.
It's so bittersweet. I've made some of the best friends at school, whether it was elementary, middle or high school. I've met people that have helped me become the person that I am today. I've met people that I will never forget. I had some of the best times of my life at Santa Su. I'm ready to leave, but I'm grateful for everyone and everything that school has given me. I am truly blessed.
So here's to all of us. Here's to our bright and shiny futures.
Here's to crying and realizing how much you really do love your friends.
Congratulations to us, the class of 2009.

This was an incredible movie. To be honest, I really only Netflixed it, just so I could say I've seen it, but I really wasn't expecting to fall in love with it like I did. I'm really not a Jim Carey fan, but he's flawless in this movie. I can honestly say I've never seen a movie like this. I'm really not a movie person, because I just lose interest so fast, but I didn't want this one to end. I wanted to follow these characters through the rest of their lives. Incredible.
"I could die right now, Clem. I'm just... happy. I've never felt that before. I'm just exactly where I want to be."

This is one of the greatest movies I have ever seen. If you have never seen it, please please watch it. It gave me a completely new perspective on things and I can't even describe the way I felt after I watched it.
Paul Edgecomb: On the day of my judgment, when I stand before God, and He asks me why did I kill one of his true miracles, what am I gonna say? That is was my job? My job?
John Coffey: You tell God the Father it was a kindness you done. I know you hurtin' and worryin', I can feel it on you, but you oughta quit on it now. Because I want it over and done. I do. I'm tired, boss. Tired of bein' on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. Tired of not ever having me a buddy to be with, or tell me where we's coming from or going to, or why. Mostly I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world everyday. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head all the time. Can you understand?
Paul Edgecomb: Yes, John. I think I can.

Wilco - Hate It Here
A song about losing someone and trying to keep yourself busy to avoid realizing they're not coming back. Reminiscent of a young Rod Stewart vocals.
" What am I gonna do when I run out of shirts to fold?
What am I gonna do when I run out of lawn to mow?"Jessica Lea Mayfield - For Today
The very beginning reminds me of a song you'd hear on Spongebob, but once the vocals come in it goes into a folky tune about learning how much better off you are without an unhealthy relationship. I think this has to be one of the best "Screw You" songs. "I could care less about you.
And I love the sound of you walking away.
I can see clearer and I'm getting closer
to finding out just who I am
without you in the way."
Band Of Horses - No Ones Gonna Love You
This has been my favorite band this summer. I love the vocals and the mellow instrumentation. This is a pretty self-explanatory song.
"We're reeling through an endless fall
We are the ever-living ghost of what once was
But no one is ever gonna love you more than I do
No one's gonna love you more than I do"
Heathers - Margie
I was introduced to Heathers a few weeks ago and they've really grown on me. It's just a group of two 18 year old Irish girls and an acoustic guitar. This is one of my favorite songs along with "Hush Hush" "Do you realize just when you are young,
the things you take so seriously mean nothing at all?"
Matt Pond P.A. - Taught To Look Away
I've had Matt Pond P.A playing over and over on my iPod this summer. He's got a more folky playful song called "Magic Boyfriend" that has been the soundtrack for my car rides for all of July. "The only time you're listening
When we run from all the things we could say"
Rilo Kiley - Silver Lining
This has been the song of my summer. It's a happy upbeat song that's becomes an instant sing-a-long. It's my newest ringtone and it's already worked it's way onto my Top 25 Most Played. "I was your silver lining
But now I'm gold"
The Undisputed Heavyweights - Roll Your Windows Down (Demo)
This is the perfect song to play when you're driving home from the beach and you're all worn out. It's repetitive, but the vocals and lyrics are a perfect reminder that everything will be okay. "Roll your windows down.
It's all behind you"
Coconut Records - West Coast
This is just a cute song about missing someone when you're away. I played this song a lot this summer when I got home sick. "And I miss you
I'm goin back home to the west coast
I wish you woulda put yourself in my suitcase
I love you"Kid Rock - All Summer Long
This has definitely been the song favored on the weekends and at parties. The beginning is taken from Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon then later you can hear Sweet Home Alabama by Lynyrd Skynyrd. This is just a feel good song or maybe it's just my redneck side shining through. "And we were trying different things
We were smoking funny things
Making love by the lake to our favorite song
Sippin' whiskey out the bottle
Not thinkin' bout tomorrow"

One step closer to change we can believe in.
One step closer to bringing our troops home.
One step closer to an clean-energy future.
One step closer to lowering college tuition.
One step closer to affordable health insurance.
One step closer to affordable family housing.
One step closer to lowering this country's poverty rate.
One step closer to expanding the Peace Corps.
One step closer to living in the country this was meant to be.

I'm tired of writing postcards and tired of paying long distance bills
I'm tired of dreaming of sex and tired of not being able to show my skills
Over and over I hear you in the halls
Over and over I wake up with my pillows in my arms
Oh baby when are you coming home
I'm tired of walking alone and tired of seeing happy couples walking by
Over and over I hear you in my head
Over and over I wake up with you not in my bed
Oh baby when are you coming home

I've fallen down again
I thought my lonely days were gone
But now I'm lying here alone
And you're somewhere else
In someone else's arms
I can't sleep at night, this is killing me
I watch the clock to pass the time
I hold the phone praying it's gonna ring
And as the sun breaks through the blinds
Your memory is all I find
And I finally close my eyes
As I drive down the road
I listen to the radio
I picture you there, sitting next to me
Lost in the world we know
We could drive forever or so it seems
Both caught in a daydream
Speed limits don't apply
It's just the road and you and I
I can't sleep at night, this is killing me
I watch the clock to pass the time
I hold the phone praying it's gonna ring
And as the sun breaks through the blinds
Your memory is all I find
And I finally close my eyes
