Ooh it's 7 already. I got up at 3 today :P My sister comes by my room and yells, "Get up, lazyass! You couldn't have partied THAT hard yesterday!" Haha.

I love those chicks, my girls from hs a yr younger than us...Kim and Cat and Audrey and Sheena. They be crazy bitches :) Al flopped out so it was me, G, and P in the other car. Last night was the worst weather for goin out clubbin. And it's the same today, boooo. I didn't think it'd still be rainin by the time we got down there plus I don't have a coat with a hood on it so I just had my spring jacket. You can't really bring an umbrella into a club either. I was wearin a lil tank top and I had to hold my jacket up over my head to keep from gettin wet the entire walk from the parkin garage blocks away to the club. My jacket was SOAKED by the time we got in.

It was crazy meetin up with them with the guestlist lines and the rain and the coat check line and not bein able to hear shit on the phone while inside. I got the 3 of us for $5 on guestlist as we just got in before 11but the coat check girl didn't give me my change back cuz she was frazzled and busy I guess and I was all caught up in movin out of the line cuz P and G went on ahead of me, and tryin to see where the other girls were at that I didn't realize it so I really didn't save much money last night, haha. Dammit that coat check girl!

Anyway, another classic Kim outing...laughs and insanity. It was a circus. I got my pic taken for one of those promoters twice cuz the photographer didn't recognize me from the 1st one I guess :P So one's with P and one's with G got we all got separated and lost at least 3 times during the night.

All the coats are crammed in with eachother so they didn't get to dry at all so we had to leave with cold, wet jackets. It wasn't rainin as much as before and my hair was all messed anyway so I had to wear the damn jacket like that. But I'm gonna be smarter tonight! I hafta find a way to work a hoodie into my outfit somehow, haha. Distrikt or Inside better have fast-movin lines. Rain just sucks.

No Coldplay! BOOOOOO!! I was up anyway and I was sittin here, refreshing the page, waitin for the second it turned 10:00 so the tix would go on sale. Still nothing. Dammit! There was gonna be a LOT of ppl goin for them and they'd probably go quick but I tried for like half an hr anyway. Heather was tryin too and me and Justin tried on the phone but they said it was sold out. I heard on the radio later that they sold out in like a minute! Fuck.

That sucks ass. Oh well, here's hopin they come back in the summer or somethin for a bigger show.

I saw Fish goin for her jog this morning as I was drivin. I stopped at a red to make a right turn and was totally oblivious to any on-coming pedestrians (but whatever, I fully and completely stopped behind the line) and I was just thinkin I was a bit out and then comes someone from the right as I look for cars on the left and glanced to the right as a safety check. I'm lookin, lookin, and I first thought it was some lady but then realized it was Fish! Haha, talk about slow. Joggin at that time of day doesn't let you look your best, I guess :P I'm like, "Is that Fish??" I was gonna roll down the window and call her name but she was already runnin off and I didn't wanna make her stop in the middle of the intersection.

Kim's home for good and we are gonna get it CRUNK tonight!! In her words, the kickoff to the Summer of Kim. Lucid, we are ready to jammmmmm.

Somethin interesting happened. After me and L went out, we just rolled by our old grade school cuz we hang and reminisce and have a smoke or whatever there sometimes. So we're chillin in the parkin lot in the front, L's standin around and I'm sittin on one of those concrete stool thingys and this big black SUV comes turnin in. We're like, oh man...either it's gonna be some guys goin, "Hey baby!" or we're gonna have some kind of altercation, haha. Of all the empty parkin lots, they hafta swing into this one. It's just weird cuz it's only us. Needless to say it can't be good :P

I'm just lookin away cuz I don't pay any attention to whoever comes by. I thought maybe they were gonna ask for a cigarette or somethin. Cuz you know they were not intendin on comin there, they probably saw us from the street. Whatever, ignore ignore...continue with your business.

It's some grey-haired older guy and he says out the window, "Can I help you?"

We pause and then L's like, "Excuse me?"

He says somethin like, "I'm on the board and I'm just tellin you that cops come by and check here a lot, etc.."

We're like, oh really? OK...

I guess he was tellin us that we weren't supposed to be there but it's not like we were doin anythin...unless he thought I was smokin up weed or somethin? I dunno the thing about private or public property or whatever and L was surprised about it too, cuz she usually knows these things (with law and politics and all :P) But we're like, whatever, alrighty. We weren't that quick to leave cuz I don't think he really has the power to make us (the school board? Is that even relevant?) but we made like we were about to and he drove off the same way he came. So we're wonderin, WTF? Did he just turn into the street just to come and tell us that and then went on his way? And what're the odds somebody from the school board would be there at that time? And who just comes up to you outta nowhere and asks, "Can I help you?" WHO talks like that? How do you even answer? Just bizarre. Ppl are freaks, haha.

Coldplay at Kool Haus, tickets on sale tomorrow!!! We are makin it this time...GINA!! It's only 2 per person tho...which'll make the process harder :P And nobody will know the songs cuz the CD doesn't come out til a month later. But still, they're doin a buzz show...May 11, baby!

I want to nap right now. I have such a headache that it feels like my brain is hurtin.

Went to the Vaughan Mills to check out the place G wants to have her bday. It's interesting...and a lot of fun if you're about 12 ;) It was really rainy today. Whole bunch of stores and errands and shit, blah blah blah.

That's all I've got right now.

"Yeh! Olives!"
"Holla!"
Hahahahaha

I have a habit of of fallin asleep on the floor after I've been out havin a drink. I should stop doin that. As long as the floor's carpeted, you'd be surprised at how comfortable it can be.

I got carded at Jackass, blar! The waitress musta just started...that's what I'm tellin myself. Turns out she has the same bday as me, but obviously not the same yr :P When she asked for ID, we're like, we're probably older than you! She's like, yeah probably, haha.

I got to ride with Al while she practiced drivin stick. Manual is just too much damn work I tell ya. Why drive a car that requires both hands and both feet if you don't have to? Just start the car and go, man.

The weather tonight was perfect. It's sexy, I love it. Only at night tho...the sun is the enemy, haha.

My quads are really hurtin right now from paintballing. Sad. Still went for a walk with G, Heather, and L tho! What a trooper eh? :P Then we had samosas and they came over for nachos, haha. We suck.

Damn, I had to clean my room today. I haven't had to tidy up like that in a while. There was just so much shit all over the place, I had to walk around piles of clothes.

P had said she got somethin for me that she saw and thought I'd like. She's still givin me pseudo-bday presents, what a weirdo, I love her. She dropped it off when I was out. It was an Evanescence tshirt! Awww. It's red and it's cute with a bitchin eagle logo thing on it. Nice...and we'll always have memories of the concert :)

I've seen 4 different police situations go down in the past week. 3 arrest-type dealings and 1 was a bad accident. I saw some guy handcuffed and gettin escorted out of Finch station by at least 5 cops. Then the po-po had pulled a car over right in front of my house and I think there were 2 guys in it. One of them had come out and was arguin with the cop and looked prettyyyy close to gettin arrested. The 3rd time, we were about to go downtown on Fri and we saw a buncha guys in cuffs and bein led away, one of them was sittin on the ground with his back against the fence. They were fuckin KIDS. Some of them looked 14. Nice. And comin home on Sat, there was a car wreck in the intersection. It didn't look bloody or anythin but the car was mashed up good. There were at least 3 cop cars, 2 ambulances, and a fire truck. They allll came out. I guess shit starts to happen when the weather starts to get warm or somethin.

You know back when I was talkin about how you just don't know how ppl are connected to eachother? Like you just don't realize the things that go on in strangers' lives cuz you'd never think you'd have a reason to know these things? Still blowin my mind. It's very Joan of Arcadia (the show...if you don't watch it, then you don't really know what I'm talkin about huh). When you find out how you can be connected to someone else, more than you'd ever imagine? Just another reason to be nice to others :P

We went paintballing at Sgt. Splatters and it was so much fun. It was a work thing for L and she could bring a guest so I went with and we've never been so Al had scared us with stories of how much it could hurt if you get it, esp on exposed skin. She said to wear your crustiest clothes so I geared up with a long-sleeved turtleneck under a T, shorts under tearaways, Nike gloves, and old kicks. They only give you a mask that protects your face and the sides of your head. You could very well get it in the back of your head or the neck, which is pretty scary and makes no sense if you ask me. What if you got hit in the throat? I'm pretty sure you could die! That'd explain the waivers you hafta sign first.

Me and L got there pretty early so went to get somethin to eat, I met a bunch of her coworkers, then when everybody got there, they started to explain the rules and stuff. All this safety business about the guns and shooting, they're pretty strict which is good so nobody can get hurt...when you're off the playin field anyway :P

There were like 15 yr old kids runnin things there! An older guy did the instructional talk but these 2 kids were bein the refs and explainin the rules during our game. Dunno if they're even allowed to be workin but whatever, sweet job. We were there almost 3 hrs, for a few rounds with a diff game each time. It was a big group so we did teams. The 1st round, my gun wasn't even workin so I pretty much hid like a weenie. I still got hit in foot tho. The rule is you're supposed to be out if a paintball bursts on you or your gun. But it's not like anybody could see the lil spot on my shoe so I just wiped it in the sand :P And then, I dunno how but I got hit in the ass! I was at the back and crouchin behind a shelter with everybody in front of me and somehow a paintball zinged me. I musta turned while I was peepin out the side or somethin. I checked my pants and the paintball didn't break so I was still good. I guess it just grazed me but that was the first time I got hit by one and it shocked me. It didn't really hurt but I definitely felt it...like I got whipped thru my clothing. Good thing I was wearin layers.

The 2nd round was good. I didn't get hit but L got one in the chest, right under her throat, oooh. THAT left a mark. Teaches her to venture out, haha. This coworker friend of hers went all superstar and ran thru right into the other team's territory. It was hilarious. Not sure how he did but I think it was pretty much a kamikaze move, haha. You can't tell if you've hit someone let alone know how hit you, with the low lighting and the million paintballs goin all over the place, plus you can't really see how far they reach.

Oh but the last round, I got it so bad. I may or may not have gotten some ppl but it was the last round so everybody went insane shootin at everyone and everythin. And since it was the last round, anybody who got hit pretty much stayed and kept playin anyway. We were up in the 2nd floor of the building we were 'protecting' and I stupidly just stuck my head out the window to see where ppl I should be shootin were, cuz most of the ppl were out. Just as I was gonna bring my head back in, I got shot in the face! It exploded and I yelled like I really got shot or somethin, haha. Even tho it hit the mask it still hurt, man! The paint splattered thru the breathin holes over the chin area and MY MOUTH WAS OPEN so I ate paint!! Yeah, doesn't taste good...hopefully it's non-toxic. Then came the barrage of paintballs comin thru the windows from who knows where and they were just missin me and splatterin the walls next to my head and behind me and all over my arm. I was like AHHHH!! What IS thisss??? Haha, I don't think I'd be cut out for the military. It was so messy.

We got off the field and L had gotten shot in the boob!! OUCH. That one'll match the other one she got. I didn't even realize that guys can get shot in the crotch, the important areas should be protected! Where's the padding, ppl? I'm just glad I came out with no painful direct hit to any part of my body. I took my mask off and there was pink paint drippin down all over my cheek. And you get so hot and sweaty in there, I just felt nasty. Paint all over my clothes, sandy cruft all over my shoes, and in my shoes, I even had shells in my hair. Good times! We got free pizza too. Well the entire thing was free and I don't even work with them, wicked!

Thank goodness we brought a change of clothes. And then we went to Timmy's after...I think I still had some paint on my face and arm that I didn't get, haha. We definitely hafta go again, it's somethin you gotta try.

Hit the Maddy tonight. Fun stuff. Saw some ppl from school from 2nd yr or whenever I had that class. Some other stuff happened but my brain hasn't gotten back to what it should be yet so I don't remember. The weather was soooooo nice. I love it when it's warm enough you don't need your coat but it's not hot. Good spring nights make me wanna do everythin there is to do on this earth.
