Yeah. One of the many things I learned from one of my previous relationships... well, first one I ever was truely serious about, is that there's good music out there, you just need to listen. Pennywise is a pretty good band, and I just feel like posting a song of theirs that I really like...

"Yesterdays"
Up from the ashes and over the hill
We knew more than we ever will
Back when the days passed by so slow
And now we'll never know
That sense that tomorrow was far away
And our dreams they never fade
We never thought the good times could end
Can we go back to those days - When everything was simple then?
And nothing could ever change
Can we go back to those days - We didn't have a care at all
I wish I could remain - Back in yesterdays
Up from the shadows of our days gone by
They seem like scenes from a different life
We didn't notice as the days went past
We knew it couldn't last
But looking back I wouldn't change a thing
The memories shared they'll always stay with me
We never thought the good times would end.


How true. So god damn true. Why the hell do I want back the one thing that ended up hurting me so much? That continues to make me cry even if I may not show it? ********. I was stupid, I guess. But the thing is, this song is so true. No couple ever believes that they will end, that the great times they have together will ever stop. And you always will remember those times, yet no matter how much you want them back, it always seems like it was so long ago, and it seems like someone else was living your life during that time. All good things may happen for a reason, and when it's usefulness has ceased, then all good things must come to an end.

And the worst part about it is, half of all the guys in my school are punk. Danny, the guy who's locker is next to mine just is a reminder everyday, just because of the fact he's short and has long hair that does this whoosh thing. As much as I may wish, Danny isn't who I would like him to be... ********. Why can't we move to Jersey? No, that'd be useless, things won't change. Things won't go back to how they were. Never will. Even though that's what I so dearly want.

Eh. I think I'm done with the venting for now.

Did I mention I'm starting a ska band? Already have 4 people for sure, and 3 more willing to try out. The funny thing is, I only announced this on Tuesday night, and it's Friday now. Damnit, why can't anyone find a decent bassist ever? Or trombonist for that matter (which I regretfully may have to learn... But I love my trumpet too much!) First real meeting and try-out will be held the Friday after I get back from Victoria. Which is like... the 26th. Woot! Three days after "We Don't Need to Whisper" comes out! (I get it before everyone in the U.S. though, since I will be in Canada on the 22nd when it's set to be released up there... I do believe..)
