At times

I wish I lived in Seattle. I still really love it there.


Maybe someday...

I always feel bad when

I don't how what to say or how to help. I feel like I can't fufill my duties of being a friend. Sometimes, I guess, it's better that I don't know what to say, though. Maybe I'm not suppose to help, but just to listen.


I think this is one of those times.

Haven't I already blogged about this?

Love. What is love? Does it still exsist?

I would hope to think it does. When I look at people on the streets or around school, I would think it does. But then the...facade fades, and I come back to reality. Is it really possible for two people to stay in love forever?

I guess it is. My grandma's still in love with my grandpa, I think. He's been gone for around three years now, but I know she still loves him and thinks about him. You can tell she misses him when we joke about his love for extra information, or how she rambles on about how he loved the weirdest foods. Obviously, they show love can last. As can a lot of aged couples.

But what I want to know, is can love last in this day? If two people fell in love today, would they stay in love and together, or would they spread apart like the rest of the couples in the world? Would having a child and working different hours separate them, or would it bring the right people closer? Are we just not looking deep enough in our partners, or is love just truly impossible, now?

I was just looking at this blog, it's Ace Enders' wife's blog about being pregnant on the road. Now, that...is a couple I envy. Just reading her blog (oh my god, I'm going to sound so cheesy right now) made me feel all mushy inside. I felt my eyes start to well up. Not because I was sad or anything, just because of how great they were together as a couple. It's something I, personally, haven't seen ever in a couple so young. I mean they're having a baby for Christ's sake while on the road together. They're never apart. That would drive a modern couple mad. Yet somehow they seem happier than ever, or, at least she does. She talks about the things she does with her baby, and how she feels like they'll be a great family. Even writing this is making me emotional.

I guess I've just never seen anything like it. Sure, I've seen it in movies, and yeah, I've read about it in books, but I've never SEEN it.

I don't know. Maybe I'm just going crazy. Hopefully I get to see them when they pass through Houston. If not, I'll still send them my best wishes...through telepathy or something, hah.

L-l-l-loooveeee. They make me believe in it again. Maybe not all relationships these days are doomed.

What

happened to good music?

I was reading a book, and listening to City and Colour when I got bored and closed my eyes. I really began listening to Dallas' voice, and I stayed like that for maybe 20 minutes. Just listening.

That's something I almost never do. And when I do, it's typically with City and Colour.

Why can't more bands put that effect on me? Why can't more bands write and produce music that just makes me want to drop what I'm doing and listen? Why can't more bands make music that just gives me the chills, because it's so beautiful? Why can't more bands remember what music is?

I'm trying to think up a list of bands who do make me do this, but I'm coming up short. I'll list what I've thought up.

Bright Eyes
City and Colour
The Reign of Kindo
The Junior Varsity
Kay Kay and his Weathered Underground
The Dear Hunter
As Tall As Lions
Pink Floyd
Portugal. The Man
RedRedBlue

Uh, yeah. That's it. Sad, right?

Maybe I'm just too picky, or, maybe no one cares about making anything but fun, dancy music anymore. Either way, I wish I could find more bands who made me feel like this. I think this is what music's suppose to do.

I don't know how many times I've tried to undo this knot you tied

Dead.

Completely dead.

Never again am I doing Warped in Houston. Unless the best of the best bands come. Theeen I might.

Saw Bayside. They blew me away. Saw Thrice. They blew me away x2. Saw Saosin. They didn't suck like normal. Saw UnderOath. They were...like usual I guess.

That was my warped.

This is me going to pass out now. Bye.
