His Blogging Skull.

My mom bought Mountain Dew instead of Dr. Pepper this time. This is alright, but this means more bathroom breaks. I critically need to work on my year-long Phoenixville History project. It's due very soon. It's a nice day out, today. Me and Nick walked my dog up around the Middle School track and back. We saw kids we knew running track. An ignorant, female peer of mine said, "That's an ugly dog." and Nick said, "You're an ugly dog!". Haha. We also saw Kim there, wearing Zebra shorts. Last Friday, i went to Saira's friend Kayla's house. She's much more of a preppy girl than i am used to. She has a large, secluded house surrounded by woods around Kim's area. A fellow 8th grader Mackenzie, Saira, Colton, and I all went to her house. It was fun. They have a system of golf carts to travel around their small neighborhood. Convenience at it's finest. We spent a great deal of time on their trampoline. Then, we sat around their backyard fire, and watched as a neighbor of Kayla's(who happened to be a kid from my grade who i never talk to) rode up with his golf cart through the pitch black perimeter of the yard to us, shining his headlights brightly. Very nice/funny guy. Colton likes Kayla. I like Saira. Saira likes me. Fire likes wood. I hate Kayla's taste in music. Then, we all watched half of Lovely Bones in their finished basement. Oh, i failed to mention that Ryan(golf cart dude) and Colton had left before watching the movie. A good night. I got home at 11 PM, but my nutcase mom , my dad and I all went to Applebee's still. I am an anglophile.

The Devil's Blog.

My brother has introduced me to a new band. Their name is Wild Beasts. He showed me a particular song, "The Devil's Crayon". The singer sings in falsetto 99% of the time, and that makes them very unique. Since i pay a lot of attention to the singing in music, this definitely catches my eye. The song is rumoured to symbolize the singer's homosexuality, but i'd like to think otherwise. Otherwise, being that it's a very creative, catchy, and just plain awesome song. The music video is bloody amazing, which i will post below. Anyways, BIG Cheez-Its and Dr. Pepper have become regulars for me now. I also have been hanging out with Nicholas Alexander Yatsko nearly every day. We are adventurers. Don't get me wrong, me and my brother are still amazing adventurer brothers. But Nick and I are the same age, and Nick lives here, and there lies an advantage. Saira is grounded for her bad grades, if that wasn't previously mentioned. She can only walk home with me once a school-week and hang out with me one weekend-day. I'm enjoying my RAINY Sunday, aren't you? Usually SUNdays are always sunny. I am getting a haircut today. Oh, joy. Don't get too excited, it's just a trim. And Nick is coming to watch. Am i supposed to be embarrassed by that? Anyways, here you go.

Come Blog With Me.

There's this band called British Sea Power. I like 2 of their songs. They are a pretty simple, independent punk rock band. But, their latest release was written as a soundtrack to an old documentary from 1934 about people on the Aran Islands. And there is this one mostly instrumental, creepy song called "Come Wander With Me", hence my blog title. And it's pretty darn good. So that makes three songs i like of their's. I am eating potato skins. I added blocks of colby jack cheese to them too, which is awesome. I am going on a bike ride with Nick YET AGAIN today. It's fairly common for me and Nick to do that now. I like that 'Runaway Train' song by Soul Asylum. Last Saturday, four days ago, Nick came over and slept over. In the daytime, we rode against the very rough winds that we were getting that day. Cherry blossom petals were flying everywhere, and there was black and white clouds, creating a very mood about the atmosphere. :::{[This time is when i saved the blog draft, hung out with Nick, and came back]}:::: Anyways, i just got back from hanging out with Nick. It was cool. It was a hot day. We stopped by the school and came upon the track runners after their track meet in Boyertown and we saw Kim, a mutual friend. My mom got me this super-sized Cheez-Its. They are amazing. Nick put this foam nerf basketball on the tip of a drum stick and flung it right at me. I was laying on my bed, and the ball went straight at my soda. The thing started combusting and spilled everywhere, but it was funny, because he was across the room. My house is covered with tennis and lacrosse balls because yesterday, Me, my brother, Leedom(brother's friend), Nick, and Colton were at the high school fields collecting them, and doing random activities with them. My dog is enjoying it. My Uncle is taking back the lent guitar tonight. He's giving me back my fixed one, which i have not missed much, his is cooler. Yep, that's all for today.

An Insult To The Blog.

What a day. Not really, it actually was a quite neutral day. This has been PSSA week. All i can taste is soft pretzels and cheap water. All i can THINK is to cite examples from the text. I am stocked in the fridge with Vitamin Water. I was mass-consuming them, so my mom overstocked with like 15 of them for a dollar each. But i needed something different, so i bribed my mom to get me a Mountain Dew at Dunkin' Donutes where she gets her Iced Tea every day. Unfortunately, they didn't have any, so she got me a Pepsi. Very disappointing. My brother is supposed to be coming over tonight shortly, which is always nice. Me and Nick's bike ride today was sortof different. We met up with a kid from my school and played some sports and played with his Golden Retriever, Cooper. I need to rewrite lyrics for the "Imagine" song concerning my Bucket List for Language Arts. My dad won a $25 dollar iTunes gift card today, and is letting me have it, on the condition that i send the confirmation letter back myself. I'm up for it. I firmly believe that the moods you are in have to due with health. Like eating healthy can make you feel comfortable physically, which makes you at ease. Anyways...Yeah.

This Blog Is Haunted.

Good new song: "This Place Is Haunted" by Devotchka. Beautiful. I'm now giving this band a second chance. It's raining the slightest bit. I am in a happy/sad mood today. I went on another bike ride today. Me and Nick are running out of places to go, so we repeated riding through a neighborhood. We saw an abandoned building on Monday near the new high bridge, in the field leading to the Steel Mill. It had this ginormous wooden cross outside. I went inside. Nick didn't, he was afraid. It was really cool, you could see sunlight from the holes in the ceiling pouring in, and there was many half-boarded windows. On one side, there was just walls of graffiti, the other side was a dropoff into a big, lower downstairs room. There was no way to get down there from the other side, besides jumping. It was all collapsed and there were big pipes and machines. Crazy stuff. I just ate a full spaghetti dinner in 11 minutes. I destroyed two pieces of garlic bread. I'm not sure what to write now..have i ever told you about The Sasquatch Gang? It's a wonderful indie comedy about nerds who think they find Sasquatch tracks. It is hilarious, and i have spread the hype around my group of friends. A producer of Napoleon Dynamite made it. My Uncle Tom liked it a lot, apparently. Spiders have invaded my house. I don't blame them, the heat is insane. No, i DO blame them! I can spot like 8 right now, scattered across my house! Goodness Gracious! PSSA's start tomorrow. Goodnight Moon.

Easter Blog Hunt.

I had a nice Easter. How about you? I got a $15 iTunes gift card, some headphones, a big Dove dark chocolate bunny, and some Lindt Dark Chocolate Truffles, among other chocolate treats. I went to a nice lunch at my Aunt Sue's, and briefly visited my Aunt Jane. I bought some awesome music. To list the bands who supplied the music: DeVotchKa, The Killers, Sunset Rubdown, Grizzly Bear...uhhh...i forget the others. I'm happy, despite all this homework to wake me up from Spring Break. I went on a bike ride with Nick Yatsko today like i've been weekly recently. We went around downtown Phoenixville. Fun stuff. Stopped by Jew-Or-Ski's. I played a Ukulele and a cute little Toy Piano. I have been drinking way too much Dr. Pepper. I love my friends. There is a limited amount, but i love them, nonetheless. You really need close friends and family in this life. If you don't have that, then you've only got yourself. And judging by the self-esteem of this generation, that isn't much to live with.  I love my iPod right now. It is playing the happiest music. Or maybe i'm just happy, and the music is my happiness's catalyst. I feel like i'm wasting time, i need to write book reviews. Saira has not called me yet tonight. Her mom has probably stolen the phone. I did my math homework early tonight. That's always a good feeling. Some kid found a squeaky toy ball today in Gym class, on the tennis court. He squeaked it right in my ear in the locker room and i went deaf for like 5 seconds. My backyard smells, looks, and sounds like a swamp tonight. I had a nice Spring Break, hanging out with Saira for the majority of it. You know, i like a choice few rap songs. CHOICE FEW. Uhhh...it was me and Saira's Two-month anniversary on March 31st. Does anyone care? Didn't think so. Goodnight.
