Perverts, Cats, and Musicals

For the past while I have been at my Oma and Opa's farm. I had a glitchy phone that wouldn't send messages, no TV, no internet, no board games, no video games, no one to talk to, no animals to tend, no chores to do, and raging migraines. On the first day I stabbed a nail through my foot chasing after my cousin and couldn't walk. On the second day I was teased mercilessly about this and taunted from where I was deposited in the living room, unable to move for fear of paralyzing my leg from the pain of putting pressure on my foot. On the third day, I went to meet my cousin, then I went shopping and got in a huge fight with my mother. I've never been homesick before, but I cried myself to sleep every night from how much I miss all my friend back home. I'm too scared to do that at my aunt's: somebody might hear me.

The good things would be that I managed to fix my glitchy phone and was able to text after the third day, that I got new clothes, and that my cousin (who is 35 years old and has three sons) is actually a really cool person. Oh, and my bedroom was the attic.

I watched old musicals all day and looked after my cousin.

I've developed a loathing for cats after my Oma's pet got her blasted fur all over my new clothes and my new, favourite John Legend shirt I bought at the concert.

I've been a little depressed and immensely guilty, because after the concert there was a boy walking with his father. He was clearly bullied at school, from the look of him, and his father was shouting at him and shaking him. His father was saying what a disgrace he was and that if he ever behaved like that again, he would be locked at home every evening. I knew I should've said something, anything. When I saw that, I instantly knew that that was a kid who would grow up to become suicidal, or worse.

I wish I'd said something...

Anyway, now my mother's gone and we've picked up my perverted grandfather from the airport. First thing he does when he sees me is compliment me on the baggiest piece of clothing I own. The only thing it does for me is make my boobs stand out a bit. It's absurdly comfortable and I love it, but he has the nerve to compliment me on my breasts?! He is my grandfather! It's improper and, frankly, makes me feel slimy.

I've never wanted somebody out of my life before who was related to me, but I certainly want nothing to do with him, since he insists on this behaviour.

Furthermore, when we got to my Aunt and Uncle's, he had the audacity to stare at my ass while I carry mine and my father's things upstairs! I'm in a foul mood, to say the least, and am dreading the rest of this damned holiday. At least I can rage on my blog and talk to Care Bear online plenty, as well as text her when I'm away from the screen.

48 Hours

The week at camp was awesome in many ways and awful in others and average in a few. The weather was so nice, the scenery was amazing, the food was great, there were dances, events were pretty fun, I got to spend time with Poseidon, Teddy, and a new friend who I will call... Umm... Maka. So that was all awesome stuff. The average stuff... I guess was that there wasn't a lot to do, I had to wake up fairly early, things kept breaking (toilets broke four times, two showers broke, one sink got messed up, broke a mop, broke a door...), and I got migraines a lot. Awful stuff... I think that would be the fact that I was kinda down in the dumps for a good while and that the girls in my cabin were all so distant and stuff. But mainly it was just my down mood.

I've been really stressed lately. I haven't seen Cookie in forever and I feel like all we ever talk about it negative things. And stuff is changing... I don't know how, but it feels like it is. Not in a good way, either. I feel like we're slipping away from each other and it scares me. She's my best friend... Huff.

I'm also stressed about my injuries. They still hurt. People keep telling me that they'll go away eventually... But the injury from two years ago still causes me pain. I can't do a lot of things I used to be able to do. It's kinda frightening, to be honest. I feel really weak, all the time, and I hate to feel weak. Poseidon says that I don't need to be able to do swimming, that I'll find something. Sports aren't everything. And he's right. But I feel like I need them. And he said that eventually I'll be able to do things I used to. But... It's just so hard. My body's so weak. It can't do things I want it to. He made me feel a lot better, saying that for what I lack in physical strength is made up in mental strength. And I think he's right about that. I'm strong... Mentally.

But I don't feel like I am right now.

Another thing. Jones is attempting to talk to be again and all that. It just makes me nervous. I spoke to Cookie about it and she says if I want to stop being afraid of him, I have to start talking to him again and face my fear. I know she's right... But it's scary. One of those irrational fears, right? Maybe if I just chin up, I'll get over it.

I can't avoid him forever.

Big sigh! Anyway, I'm home from camp, I had a lot of stress, I'm over most of it. There's more little things, but they don't really matter much anymore. Cookie and Poseidon helped me to feel better. I wish I could bring them with me.

Where am I going? Well, I got back from the camp/resort/thing yesterday. Tomorrow morning, I'm leaving on a huge road trip and will return on the 30th. I'm going to the mainland again to see a concert, then farther inland to visit family, then down for the IronMan that my dad's going to be in (crazy idiot he is). It's going to be long, boring, and frustration filled, since my grandfather's going to be there for a good amount of it. I'm going to be spending all my time with my mom, trying to escape the boys.

I'd do anything to have those two with me... Or anybody, to be frank.

No, muses, you don't count.

Mainland

Gosh, I'm so tired. This probably isn't a good thing... Considering I'm going to be on a bus for the majority of tomorrow and I'm staying at Poseidon's tonight. Definitely shouldn't've tried to stay up talking to him all night, huh? Yeah, not smart.

Anyway, this will be my last post for quite some time. I'm going to a resort/camp/thing on the mainland tomorrow, so I thought I'd give a little update of everything before.

What's happened... Well, not much, actually. I recently found a new Vocaloid/whatever named Miki. She's my new favourite! I love her so much. Her voice kinda sounds a little bit like mine, too, which means I can actually sing along to her songs without straining my voice to reach high or low notes like I have to do with Luka, Miku, and Rin. With Len it's a little easier... But it's still kinda hard to get the low notes he sings at times. So I can sing along to Miki! And I've found so much of her music that I love. My favourite song of hers at the moment is "Dive Into Blue." It's really great.

Well... My life is kinda boring at the moment, I suppose. I'll definitely have stuff to write about after I go to the resort/camp/thing. And then I'll write about the Sade concert I'm going to after that! And then I'll write a long entry about road trips, most likely. Then there might be some replies like that complaining about family. Then I'll give a post about how the IronMan went! My dad's insane, he's entering it.

And he's 50!!

Coffee Shops

Falling In Love At A Coffee Shop is a brilliantly amazing and adorable song by Landon Pigg. It's one of my favourite songs in the universe and, even though I hate coffee, if things like what happen in the video actually would happen to me, I'd go to coffee shops. But, of course, not just everybody has a pocket watch that freezes time.

Unfortunately.

Landon Pigg is one of my favourite artists. He has such a unique voice and different sound. I am always on the look out for new artists like this. If you have one, drop a comment about them, and I'll hit them up. I love all genres, of course.

I've noticed lately that the music I've been listening to is a lot lighter of a sound. Plenty of acoustic music. Another of my favourite songs by Landon Pigg is Magnestismo.

Hope whoever has read this now had some awesome new music to enjoy!
