2 Days until I turn 18...and my friends, I truly know what insanity is now.

INSANITY is getting sunburned for the first time EVER 3 days before your 18th birthday
INSANITY is having your best friend move away and not being here to celebrate with you on your 18th birthday
INSANITY is having your favorite WWE Superstar be released...and then being in the middle of controversy
INSANITY is meeting your favorite WWE Superstar and not saying anything you had planned to say.

I am not an outside person, and over the years, I had come to the conclusion that being mixed automatically prevented you from being burned...but then I came to realize yesterday, that I had just been an extremely sheltered child.
Long story short, my ass got fried like a porkchop and I have no one to blame but myself heading to the beach with nothing but a cell phone and that stupid theory of mine. You live, you learn...you feel the sun's rays beat down on you for 3 hours straight...you learn even a little faster.

The Best Friend, as she is so affectionally referred to by me, has moved to Florida. She did get me a Green Day poster for my birthday before she left, but I would have have rathered had her here. 18 is going to be great...but not as great as it should be.

Spike Dudley was released from his WWE contract a few days ago. Does it hurt?...yes. Does it surprise me?...not in the least. There's not much I can (or want to) say on this topic that I haven't said already for the good people of "Dudleyville". The more and more I talk about, the angrier and more un-okay with it I become.

But on a happier note, I'd like to take you back this post I made Saturday, June 19, 2004

...Anyway, I've been thinking about the whole event a lot lately wondering will I ever actually get to meet him [Spike Dudley]? Is that the closest I will ever get to Spike? I really hope not!Before I die, I want to have a real meeting with him, just so I can say some things to him. Like, "Do you know how amazing and awesome you are?" or "Do you have any idea what your existance in the WWE means to me? And not just in the WWE, but just in general?"
Maybe one day...

Well, that one day did come, and it was March 15th, 2005 at the Savannah Civic Center. I stood outside the whole time (completely missing the show) and waiting for Spike to come outside. My planned worked and I even got my picture taken with him! (Object may appear smaller upclose than they do on television!). I did get to talk with Spike for a few minutes...and he was the nicest guy you could ever have the pleasure of meeting. He was warm and made eye contact with me the whole time I talked to him...it was truly a day I will always remember. I can't remember everything I said to him...everything is such a blur to me most likely due to the fact that I was talking at about a million miles an hour. But I can remember what I didn't say...NONE OF THAT SHIT! You know, that stuff is so easy to plan when you aren't standing in front of your hero with a camera and a Sharpie marker. I don't even think I remembered what my name was much less all those ego boosting (JK!) statements I had planned to say.

Well, that's all for me...until next year!

Okay, well, the good news is is that I haven't been gone as long as I thought I had been.
The bad news (for you anyway) is that I am back baby!!

I've been building my CD collection pretty nicely lately. And on Friday, I added Beck's new one "Guero" to the bunch. And what an awesome add it is.
I've always been a big fan of Beck, but this was my first time actually buyin one of his CDs. His first single off the album and openin track "E-Pro" proved to be just too damn catchy for Andi to ignore. And the good news is now with the CD, I have 12 other songs to annoyingly hum all day!

Beck-"Guero" (8/10)
Not like my opinion matters hehe

Other CDs I've added

Offspring-"Smash"
Smashmouth-"Fush Yu Mang"
Counting Crows-"August and Everything After"
Dee Lite-"World Clique"

Thank God for yard sales, eh?

I also got a chance to pick up the very Spike Dudley and Molly Holly-less "WWE Smackdown: Here Comes the Pain". Aside from it's two big flaw, still a very awesome game. The Best Friend came over and throughly whipped my ass in it only to add salt to the wound by killin me in Soul Caliber 2 later that day (BEST fighter game EVER by the way)! That's okay, cause guess what? I WILL SURVIVE!

Before Andi jets, would kind of a post would this be without some cheap pluggin?

Is there anything better in the world than getting to talk to someone you admire. How about talking to them for two hours! But, that's another story dears.

The Smackdown taping in Savannah GA is 3 days away, and like you've come to expect from Andi, my signs are not done and I am becoming very PMSy over getting there on time and getting to meet Spike Dudley THIS time.

If you've been drooling over guys as long as I have, then you know that there are different kinds of hot. You have your "few too many times in rehab" hot Scott Weiland of Velvet Revolver and formerally Stone Temple Pilots. You've got your "high 24-7 ..even though he says it's just his eyes" hot, Jim Breuer, formally of SNL. And last, but not least, you have your "I may be big, but I can rock way harder than you" hot Jack Black.
Out of all the many many different kinds of hot, I've picked the 5 that seem to rock Andi's world the most. Ready? You better hope you are.

First up I have...

"Teen Dream" hot which I proudly award to:
Evan Farmer

If anyone reading this is old enough to remember 2Gether, MTV's spoof boy band, then you HAVE to remember Jerry O Keefe, "the heart throbe". After the death of Michael Cuccione, the youngest member, Evan went on to do solo stuff until landing a hosting gig on that hit TLC show, "While You Were Out". You can now see him 80 times a week in all his dorky hotness.
To tell you the truth, I had COMPLETELY forgotten about Evan until I one day tuned into WYWO and immediately recalled where I knew him from. That smile, that body...that...body....
Evan perhaps could be the hottest little thing walking around planet earth, completely free from flaw...perhaps even perfect if there is such a thing...oh yes, there is...and his name is Evan.

Secondly, I have...

"Muscle Head" Hot who so deservling goes to...
Chris Jericho

There is not a woman alive who's ever laid eyes on WWE Superstar Calgary born Chris Jericho that would ever take that moment back. Crystal blue eyes, kissable lips, and a sense of humor all wrapped up in ready to order package is what makes this hottie more famous with the ladies then the fellows.
When I first saw Chris freakin' Jericho for the first time, my eyes popped out, my mouth dropped to the carpet, and my 4 1/2 year old crush officially began. Perfect body, drop dead gorgous looks...I can't tell you the countless hours I watched wrestling just to see him before I even cared or concentrated on any sort of storyline. No matter how many times he goes from face (good guy) to heel (bad guy) in his career, I will always be a Jerichoholic!

Thirdly...is that word? I have...

"Crazy Rocker" hot Who I will so proudly split among 3 people...
Howlin' Pete Almqvist
Andrew WK
Jack White

I really don't know what planet these three are from...or even what planet you have to be from to be attracted to them, but it's just something about Andrew WK, dirty Detroit rocker, Jack White, wierdo Detroit rocker, and Howlin Pete Almqvist, out of this universe Swedish rocker that makes Andi go into hyper drive.
First came Andrew W.K. who I came across back in 2002 when "Party Hard" was the theme to every frat party and beer commerical in the US. I bought "I Get Wet" and immediately fell in love with Andrew's spirit more than anything. When he was standing still long enough for me to see his face, I realized he wasn't too bad looking either
I discoverd The White Stripes the same year from the video "Hotel Yorba" which is still one of my favorite songs ever. From the first time I layed eyes on Jack White, I knew it would be a long time before I got over him. Even with his fake southern accent, pasty white skin, and mysterious background, I can still look at Jack today and get butterflies in my stomach from that layed on southern charm of his.
The Hives were also around this year, but I really didn't become a huge fan of them until late 2004, when "Tyrannosaurus Hives" was about to be released and that catchier than hell single of theirs "Walk Idiot Walk" was playing on radio stations (and WWE events) everywhere. Looking at Howlin' Pete for the first time in different way durin the "Walk..." video is what got me so fascinated with him. He moves and even kinda favors a young Mick Jagger which is always sexy in my book.

Fourthly I've got

"Boy From Next Door" Hot awarded to..
Hugh Jackman

BESIDES the fact that he's got the perfect porno name, he's also the perfect guy to fill my "If Solid Snake were real" fantasies I have. And if it weren't for that, I really don't know how attracted to Mr. Jackman I would be. Of course anyone deaf, blind, and dumb can see Hugh's surely easy on the eyes (among other things) but it was not until I decided to fantasy cast for a Metal Gear movie that started getting the hots for him. Even his role as the slice em and leave em Wolvorine in the X-Men movies didn't it for me. What is wrong with Andi you ask, I am trying to figure that out myself.

And last, but in no way least....

"Only in the Video Gaming World" Hot has been given to...
Solid Snake

Though the Metal Gear franchise gets older and better every year, it seems Solid Snake just gets...better. After saving the world from the walking nuclear battle machine that is Metal Gear so many times, you'd think aging, graying, or perhaps even a bit of insanity would set it for the video game vet. But, if you truly think that, then you don't know Snake.
Well, who else in the hell did you think it would be?
I really don't think I have to explain to ANYONE my endless love for the one and only Solid Snake. Even if I didn't talk about him every day and keep pictures of him on my address book, would I really, after looking at him, have to explain WHY! Mysterious, dark, blunt, troubled, alone and a pack a day chain smoker...how could any woman resist?

I think I've typed and drooled enough
Until next time!

Okay, Andi ususally isn't surprised easily...and if she is, it's not for long.

So, I returned to watching the Tribe today in order to catch the last few episodes since this season has it's last eps next week. I really do LOOOOOVE this show and hate the fact that I've missed so many eps this season, but I am praying for a marathon like they did at the end of Season 4.

A LOT has been going on. The biggest one being that RAM can walk. Un-friggin-belivable, right? But what's even BIGGER than that is that RAM and LEX have been working together.
There was the introduction of a new characters,GEL, who JACK found somewhere and whose sole purpose is to annoy. SLADE, who's from the town of Liberty where his love interest (and mother of his possible baby) RUBY resides.
MEGA has been in power over the city, JAY lost his memory,AMBER was supposed to lose her memory but didn't, JAY got his memory back, SELENE's drunk, MOUSE has left to live with the ECO tribe, SIVA, JAVA, VED, CHLOE and PRIDE are dead, MAY and SELENE become friends...only for the friendship to be stressed when MAY tells SELENE what PRIDE really said before he died, ELLIE has returned to JACK, ZOOT has come back, died, come back again, died, JAY has been with AMBER and TRUDY all in the same season, AMBER and TRUDY have been enemies, friends, enemies, and then friends again, THE MALL RATS have regained power, EBONY and LEX have MEGA right when they want him when...

the big news comes in

SLADE AND MEGA ARE BROTHERS!!!!!!
The whole time, SLADE has been working with EBONY, RAM, JACK, and LEX to bring down MEGA. They riot into the city, EBONY and LEX are about to "delete" MEGA with a few bats when SLADE comes and drops the bombshell!

Now, for those of you who have never seen the Tribe are completely lost on what I've been rambling about for past few paragraphs, but for those of you who know what I am talking about, PLEASE BE SHOCKED WITH ME

It's been about 6 hours or so since I found out the news, and I am STILL can't believe that shit. MEGA (or JOSH as we find out his real name is) and SLADE, brothers...

Well, like after all good reveals, the episode ended there, leaving Andi hanging until next week. Or do they...

I've been a VERY bad girl and managed to read the over view for next week's season finale. I won't say much except...say goodbye to your home, Tribes and hello to a new world...

2005-02-24T22:24:00.000-05:00

Hello little candy boys and girls,

My David Hayter site has been going well, but what I realized today is that I am missing linkage from other sites...promotion, advertisement, whatever you want to call it.
The only place I can REALLY get this exposure from is from my fellow Metal Gear fans, the only group of people who think David is kickass. As a writer, he is still proving himself to a lot of people but as a voice actor, he's the shit! He does the voice of freakin' Solid Snake...you don't get any cooler than that in the gaming industry.
All the Metal Gear sites I've been through wants you to sell your mamma in order to meet their standards and become an affliate. I just don't have that kind of talent or info to do that, so I'll just have to settle for being a link on these pages, which is fine by me. Just as long as the word gets out.

I updated my site with lots of little goodies today. Can't remember what any of it was right now, so why don't YOU, the reader and supporter of ME,click this text and find out for yourself what I've updated. Lazy bastards. Expect Andi to do EVERYTHING for ya, don't you?!

It's been a LONG day, and if I still didn't have so much to do, I'd be in bed. But, I must push on...promoting and cheap pluggin my David Hayter site all over the Metal Gear universe!

I finally got Trillian and I think conserved space on my hard drive. Even if I haven't, I've replaced 3 messengers with 1! I got rid of Yahoo and MSN but kept AIM cause I don't know if you can download that one for free still. You know, just in case Trillian screws up or something.

Finally got "The Guyver 2" or, "Guyver 2: Dark Hero" whatever you choose to call it. As low budget and corney as it is, I love it! Here are some pictures of me geeking out yesterday a few hours after I got it.

Yep, what a dork that chicky is. WHAT...A...DORK!!

I'd like to thank everyone who's been sending me such kind emails about DavidHayter.net! I had no idea it was a great source of information until earlier today! I really appreciate everything considering there isn't a whole lot on David on the internet and I am making due with the little that I have. I enjoy and get real pleasure out of running a website for someone I admire and believe in so much. Thanks everyone again and I hope to keep bringing you the same great info as long as I can!

Morgan Webb. Cute, gamer girl host of the G4TechTV review show X-Play.I personally never thought of her as "hot" but more as a geeky gamer chick type cute. Obviously, the whole world was not agreeing with me.

I was doing one of my once in a blue moon searches on the lovely host of this show I love so much when I found something that may cause me to never look at Ms. Webb the same again.

Morgan Webb doing MAXIM! So, it's not Playboy, which I'm sure more than a few guys would not have a problem with her doing, but it's pretty damn close! She's just never struck me as the type of person to get down to barely nothing and pose for a men's magazine.

Morgan Webb, you are truly a very beautiful and stunning woman. And hey, if ya have it, show it right? No respect lost, if anything, gained.

2005-02-14T21:03:00.000-05:00

OH BLOG HOW I HAVE ABONDONED THEE!

I am very sorry for doing so...even though I swore I would curse the day I ever got LJ and be faithful to the one who had my heart first. What a load of crap that was, eh?

Andi is still around, still be strange...still cheap plugging my David Hayter site. Life has been one shitty step after another, but I am hanging in there.
You say: Andi! This is your journal for all the people who aren't *special* enough to read your LiveJournal!
I say: Oh yeah! Well, let the entertaining begin!

....

How's THAT for entertaining...I got nothing. Nada. Zero. Well, except for the fact that the official movie site for "Watchmen" has opened up. Too bad it's just a tease right now. You'll find nothing much deeper or interesting than that crack addicted happy face on the main. But you can, as I did, sign up for updates to come straight to your mailbox! Haven't gotten one yet, but it's coming, I can FEEL IT!

On the subject of Mr. Hayter, I finally am going to get my copy of "Guyver 2: Dark Hero". I had to special order it which ran me a few bucks more, but hey, I'm gonna have it in my hands in 3 to 8 business days, baby! The movie I heard is crap (despite the awesome reviews it got over at Amazon.com), but it's David Hayter in a wife beater for an hour and half...that's worth the 24 dollars by itself.

Oh yeah, can you say LOW BUDGET? But, that's okay...I love that sort of crap anyway.

That's if for this edition of...whatever this was. See ya again in 5 months!

I think the last time I wrote in this, I copied and pasted David Hayter.net about a zillion times so that it would come up in search...as crazy a technique as that is, it worked!

The site is coming along nicely. I've had someone from Cheat Code Central contact me about the site. Why, I don't know, but as soon as I put up the bio, I am supposed to contact them. I can only hope it's good.

Wrote a letter to all the fans of "the Watchmen"after I read what some fans were saying stating that their series was safe in David's hands, that he would do it justice. I REALLY don't think anyone is buying what I am putting down, but, that wasn't my intention anyway. I just wanted people see that I am one of the many supporters of David. You can go here to read it.

Listening to Kid Kraddick in the Morning...I love these guys! About to go back listening!!

2005-01-31T23:11:00.000-05:00

Where in the hell are all the friggin David Hayter fans at!!!! There are NO boards to cheap plug my site one, NO other sites I can exchange links with, and NO one at the IMDB or TV Tome boards!!! What in the hell is going on! It's the damn Twightlight Zone! This man help write the X-Men movies and he does the voice of Solid Snake!!! William Hung is a tone deaf asian...yet I can find more info on him!!!!

ARGGGGGGGGHHHH

Feels like forever since I've been here.

Been doing so much lately I guess I kinda forgot to update for the two people who actually reads this.

I am just about to finish up DavidHayter.net, which is my site that's been in works for a few months now. All I have to do is the "bio" and do some promoting (which is a lot harder than you'd ever think it was) and then I'll be able to rest...for a minute anyway. Falcon Beach, a show that Ephraim is on, just started to come on which means a lot more newly converted Ephraim fans are on their way..well, hopefully.

Since I can't find a real way to promote my David Hayter site, I'll do it this way: David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter David Hayter.net David Hayter.net David Hayter.net David Hayter.net David Hayter.net
David Hayter.net David Hayter.net David Hayter.net David Hayter.net David Hayter.net

lol...please, someone visit www.davidhayter.net!

And if you don't know who David Hayter is, just for time, David is the voice of Solid Snake in the Metal Gear games. But this is not the only thing he does, or even the best. visit the site for more! You'll love him, I promise!

Thanks to The Liz ,I will no longer be referred to as Andi. My new name:

Queen Dork!

Okay, so I will still go by Andi, but I would really like to be referred to as Queen Dork. Liz, you are brilliant!!!

I was really just going to post about me writing a letter to Roger Avary, the guy writing the Silent Hill movie, and suggesting who I think would make a great Heather Morris if she were to be in the movie at all. Why, you ask? Well, everyone else was doing it...why not? He has an email address reserved for "advice". He was prepared for that email and the many others that have come before it. He knows people enjoy their say so, to make them feel like they are saying something important, even if it never goes past the inbox. I guess even I am that way...I wrote the damn letter didn't I!

In anycase, I didn't say much and I doubt it will ever go past the "unread messages" file. But, it's there and if they use her and don't mention me, maybe I can sue. People sue for everything else.

Anycase, that's all for now...and awesome nickname and fangirl letter sent in vain to the writer of the big buget movie. No wonder I am the Queen of Dorks.

I think I am in love

Feast your eyes on a finer piece of the male species, Hugh Jackman. I

got this picture from some foreign website, but I do have a few

pictures of him from "Interview" magazine (which we get for free for

some reason) but they were way too hot to post here :).

I think the reason I am so obsessed with Hugh Jackman right now is

because everytime I look at him, all I can think is "Solid Snake in the

flesh". I called my self character casting for my imaginary "Metal

Gear" movie, and as soon as I saw Hugh, the only thing that came to

mind was "Solid Snake" and I don't think I have to explain my endless

facination with him. I think the first time I ever connected the two

was on some board where people were asking what actor could play Snake

in a movie. I had just seen X-Men the movie (which is a GREAT

movie by the way) and just sorta said him in the moment I suppose. But

later, when I went back and looked at the boards, they all totally

agree with me. When I went back to look at him outside of what he

looked like in the X-Men movie, I realized my choice hadn't been too

shabby after all.

Okay, so I know Hugh's been around for a while and me JUST noticing him

probably shows my total lack of knowledge of pop culture. However, I

feel that if my word gets out enough that I think he would be the

perfect Solid Snake in a Metal Gear movie, and they picked him, they'd

have to list me under "Casting" in the credits! Okay, that was just way

out there...Andi shutting up now.

2005-01-15T05:04:00.000-05:00

I just got finished reading reviews of Silent Hill 1, 2, and 4 at some Christian site.

I don't even really recall how I found this site, but from the moment I started reading, I had to stiff back some laughter. If you've ever played Silent Hill and even gotten a lick of understanding of the gameplay, then you know the city has played host to a few occults and whatnot, probably making the city as screwed up as it is.

I read the review of Silent Hill first.

"Some of the most blatant Satanic references that I’ve seen include crayon drawings of the crucifixion hanging on the walls of an elementary school, a crucified man inside a fishing boat, upside down crosses, and occult symbols on the TV screens of the shopping center. There is a horrifying number of occult symbols used to solve puzzles in the game. Plus "the mark of Samael," an important plot point, is shown over 100 times throughout the course of "Silent Hill."

Okay, so yes, I've seen this things in the game. Didn't really upset me though. And do you know why? BECAUSE I AM NOT AN OVER THE TOP CHRISTIAN REVIEWING A GAME ABOUT CULTS AND DEVIL WORSHIPPING!!! Why, if you knew what the game was going to be about, would you play it and much less review it? The town is evil...it states this on the game case before you even get that annoying tape off the sides. How do you THINK it got evil? Bunnies? Marilyn Manson albums? You're the Christian...where does all evil spawn from?

The review continues (along with my laughter) and at some point, they try and turn around the whole concept and make it for good.

"I encourage strong Christians to play this game with a prayerful attitude, but ONLY if it is used as a witnessing tool, or as a learning tool. DO NOT under ANY circumstances play it as "just for fun". Use it for good."

Okay, witnessing tool? So the game you just said was the most evil thing on earth, I should play it again, pick out all the Christian factors, and then try to convince my friends that God is good and when you worship Satan your town will turn into a Silent Hill like hell?

And remember to not use play this game for fun...cause God knows video games are for converting people to Christians and NOT fun. What was Konami thinking?! Hey, and they need to stop with that Dance Dance Revolution too...that's just too overly fun! God will strike down on the person who dares to have fun!

And on to Silent Hill 2, which did a little better since James was a member of the church (well, so I've heard).

The review is normal, mentioning that all the occult refrences have been taken out and replaced with innocent children's fairy tales. And then, near the end, you read this:

"For those of us who have already made the mistake of playing it though, I would say this: this round gives a very good glimpse into the heart and soul of mankind. In this game it is very clear that James’ own sin brought about the horrible nightmare that he was sucked into. It shows us the horror that some people experience only in their own mind, and the futility of lying to yourself and bottling up your sins inside you. It shows us what is bad, but lacks a clear display of what is good. In a way the message is waiting to be completed by you. Christ is the one thing that was missing. In reality only He can release you from your nightmare. (John 8:34-36)"

He read WAYYY too deeply into something that was simply meant to be exciting and suspenseful (eh, to a certain degree anyway) follow up to the first one. Not something to be examined and most of all ridiculed by Christians who, in theory, are supposed to stay away from this kind of stuff anyway. And what makes it so bad, is that it the SAME GUY who reviewed the first one. The same one who was so horrified by the first SH, he had to come back and review the second one!

Thank you Mr. Sir for putting your Christian values on the back burner for 10 hours to bring us the horrors of this game so that we may not make the choice of exposing ourself to such insanly sinful things, as you have for us.

I searched and searched but did not find any reviews for Silent Hill 3 on this site. Most likey because of the whole thing of having to kill god at the end (notice...not God, but god)

So, that brings us to Silent Hill 4: The Room, this time reviewed by another person.

No talks of Christian values and ways of living being threatened here, and I really found nothing too interesting to quote from him. But, he did talk of the basic annoyances with this game like not being able to carry a whole lot on your trips to the alternate universe and the fact that you have to come back to room every so often and get things. And in my case, very important things like keys I had decided to store not realizing that two feet ahead I'd need it. Which means finding a hole, jumping back into it, going to the storage chest, sifting through all the items you have (some of which I found useless but didn't have the heart to get rid of, until, of course it broke). But, this dude did have the balls to insult the game's originality and graphics as if he were a REAL gamer or something.

Although I'll admit that SH3 was a little out there with the whole "killing god" thing, the franchise is one of the most well thought out and put together ones out there and you can't deny that. I don't think the game was designed to offend people or make people rethink who they should worship or any of the such. It's simply entertainment and should be looked at as nothing more, nothing less. And if you truly are one of those people who are strongly influenced by such things, then your probably not even getting video games or a TV in the happy house you are probably residing in.

I always said Christians and video games weren't a good mix. Just like Chirstians and wrestling, and I can't think of a better example to prove this than these reviews. While there are good games out there that Christains can certainly play and not feel guilty, as deeply as Silent Hill was read into, they could even find something wrong with something like Sly Cooper...which they actually did. To end this long ranting of my teenage mind, I'll say this: "Silent Hill is an aquired taste, and if you are a Christian, keep it out of your mouth all together"

Andi's Friends List!-"If you didn't make it, better luck next time."

For the first time ever, I've comprised a list of ALL my friends (which I don't have many of so this should be short). I haven't forgotten anyone, so if you didn't make it, better luck next time. Now, just because I talk to you and some laughs with you doesn't mean we are friends...we are more buddies...which is good cause it can turn into friendship. So, without further ado, here we go!

"If you didn't make it, better luck next time!"

I've been thinking about doing this for a long time, and am just now getting around to doing it for many reasons... which is mostly pure procrastination.

But, without much more of a introduction than this, here is: Andi's Friend List.(in no particular order, by the way)

1. John S.
What made us friends: My hots for him
What is keeping us friends: The fact that he's one of the sweetest human beings I've ever met...and my hots for him.

I don't know what it is about John that drives me so insane and causes me to get that school girl giddiness, but he does it too me and however he does it, he does it well. John was one of the first people I met when I transfered over to Windsor Forest. From the moment I saw him, I thought "I must be his friend" but was kinda thrown through a loop because he was acting kinda assholey. But, the next day when I got a chance to sit next to him in class, I did so and MADE myself his friend really. Ever since then, John and I have grown to be really close and I am hoping and praying that something more serious happens between us in the future.

2. Cory M.
What made us friends: The fact that at Beach, we were pretty much in the same boat.
What is keeping us friends: Reputation

When I met Cory, which made a year Jan 6 I think, we were both in a school full of black people and had a hard time fitting it. I introduced him to Sara and became known as the two people who were attached at the hips. Whenever you saw Cory, I was usually not too far behind. Even though we both hated Beach, we had some damn good times there...and I wish for those times back

When we transfered to Windsor, for a while, nothing changed. Cory and I were still hanging out whenever we could. But, he went his way and after standing alone by myself for a while, I went my way too. The only thing that is keeping us friends really, I feel, is that feeling that we have to be friends since we almost became legendary at Beach. Once that feeling goes, who knows what'll happen.

3. Sara M.
What made us friends: A strange chain of events
What's keeping us friends: A strange chain of events

Sara and I met at Beach. I really didn't have any friends, so I ate lunch and pretty much did everything else by myself. After I became friends with Cory, I opened up a bit. I became aquainted with Tharron, Myron, and Craig (who I had known for years actually, but just met up with again) and we all somehow ended up in the same 4th period, along with Sara who I had seen talking to Tharron and thought she looked like an interesting person but I was afraid to talk to. In class one day, when the three guys were acting crazy, I made it a point to talk to Sara and a friendship was born!

Today, Sara is one of the closest friends I have. Sure, we've had our ups and downs, but that's what friendship is about, right? She's kind hearted and giving and has one of the best attitudes about life I've ever encountered. I could see us being friends for the rest of our lives, and I don't say that about a lot of people.

4. Marie
What made us friends: Our love for KITH
What's keeping us friends: A contract she had to sign (LOL)

I met Marie around the time my KITH (Kids in the Hall) website opened which was about 2 years ago...give or take a few months. She was one of the first people to sign my guestbook, and at the time, before things got so crazy, I wrote back everyone indiviaually to thank them for signing. Well, Marie wrote me back and then IMed me later and the rest is history.

Marie is one of a kind...an all around great person to be around, very savy with computer stuff, and funny as hell (even though she swears she isn't). I can tell her some of my most embarrassing or crazy stuff and she will not only not laugh, but actually get it! She can do just about everything from successfully run a website to making the cutest pillows I've ever seen. I just wish we didn't live so far away!

5. Liz
What made us friends: Our love for KITH
What's keeping us friends: Yeah, she had to sign one too ;)

I also met Liz around the time my KITH website was opening. She signed my guestbook, I wrote a thank you letter, and she wrote back. But what I DIDN'T know was that Marie and her were good friends! So, really, I met Liz on the same night that I met Marie on and will treasure that night forever...it gave me my two best friends!

Liz is a beautiful soul with shyness being her biggest fall back. But of course, there are those times where she steps WAY out of her comfort zone and does something giant...like fly the San Fran, CA for the weekend to go see her idol, Bruce McCulloch! Liz is a wonderful person and I can honestly say that I am honored to be friends with someone so giving and willing to go out of her way to make someone happy. Again, I just wish we lived closer.

6. Bryan H
What made us friends: My hots for him
What's keeping us friends: He's that onefriend that everyone should have...and plus, he's just cool

The second day I was at Windsor Forest, I saw Bryan...my tongue dropped out, my eyes popped out of my head, and I am surprised my hear didn't start beating out of my chest. I was sooo attracted to Bryan, and when I was told to sit in the seat next to him, I was more than happy to apply!

But, of course, here I am, about 5,6 months later, and the crush is gone and all I have left is friendship. Now, Bryan isn't someone I'd tell my deepest darkest secrets to or anything...I don't think we'll ever be THAT close, but he is someone I really enjoy talking to and remembering the days when I had to fix my face in the mirror everytime I even THOUGHT I was going to run into him. Bryan is wonderful, and different from most guys his age with his laid back attitude about everything and his smooth way of approaching situations. He even didn't mind listening to me rant on and on about KITH even though he's not even interested in them...he's Monty Python all the way.

7. Mandelion
What made us friends: Our love and admiration for Ephraim Ellis
What's keeping us friends: Our love and admiration for each other

Mandy and I became friends thru a really strange and crazy chain of events. She had joined my board, but I did not get to become aquainted with her until a few weeks after that. I don't feel like posting all the details here, but it will be one of my most memorable meetings.

Mandy is one of my most interesting friends. I know she must think I'm some kind of freak or something cause I IM her like 30 times a day, but I just think she is so wonderful and I am so fasinated by her! From what she likes to her sense of humor...she is just awesome! Though life has been incrediable crazy and rough for her, I know she tries her best to carry on and not let it get her too down. And, for those times it does, that's where I come in to remind her of how great and special she is. I've grown greatly attached to her in a short period of time, and I treaure our friendship a lot, and I think she may think I'm not too bad myself.

8. Anita M
What made us friends: A ice skating rink and some REALLY bad skating
What's keeping us friends: I'm blackmailing her

Back in the 7th grade is when we met, but we didn't REALLY become close until the 8th grade when she started dating one of my craziest and most memorable friends Casey Clark. But our whole bonding experience happened when I called her up one night and asked if she wanted to go ice skating. Lots of fallin, and lots of embarrassment...but it was a good time. From then, we've been inseperable.

And it stayed that way until she moved away for a few years. For a while, I didn't think I'd ever see her again. We didn't keep in touch at all while she was away and I found myself missing her more than I thought I ever would. When I heard she was coming back, I was hella excited, but if left the question of would we still be as close as we were before she left...and my answer: Closer than ever! When she got back, we had no trouble picking up exactly where we left off.

Anita likes to play it hardass, but she's a hopeless romantic and a writer at heart. The gears in her head are always turning cause she's always carrying a pen and pad with her, coming up with ideas for SOMETHING and writing things. Best of all, she laughs at everything I say and do...not because it's funny, but because it was in the contract. Even thorough our ups and downs, we've remained friends and I truly think we've been through our worst, which means it can only be smooth sailing from here.

9. Mike R.
What made us friends: My attempt to be a writer
What's keeping us friends: The demands from the voices in my head

Yes, Mike...the guy that I spend to much time crying and venting about in my blog...he's still my friend. Mike and I met simply because I was trying to get a job working at a wrestling website and he was the go to guy. We talked and became friends, but I didn't expect for us to get so close and to this day, it's still kinda a hard pill to swallow because I've been thru hell and back with and for him. I truly do love Mike with everything I have, but there are still times when I wonder if he TRULY feels that same way...still.

Mike is unique is everyway. He's rude, and gets off on upsetting and offending people...which is a side of him I rarely see..but the internet gets a good taste of every day. The side I see is caring, compassionate, and generally concerned. Mike has been there for me when I felt like I had no one else in the world, and perhaps even when I truly didn't. There were times when I couldn't feel more alone and out of touch, and there he would be, sent to just me to pull me out of my dark hole. He's everything to me, and I don't regret a second of our friendship...well, not yet anyway.

Well, hope you've enjoyed this...I know I have. You never know how much your friends mean..until you're forced to write about them.

Andi

Totally dorking out right now.
Mike gave me this bright idea of taking pictures of my Metal Gear cardboard cutout thingy and sending it to him...which in return gave me the bright idea of taking pictures of my Metal Gear cardboard cutout thingy and posting it here for everyone to see! I am so proud of this thing, it's a shame...and I am a sucker for the whole "Snake"( Naked, Solid, Liquid, yes, even Solidus) family and sometimes I start to think I need a check up from the neck up. But, in all it's glory, here is my MGS: Snake Eater cardboard cutout thingy!!!

As you can see, I TRIED to get the whole thing in two pictures but I missed a few parts...but it gives you an idea of what it looks like. I just stare at that thing all the time, secretly wishing for it to come to life or something. I don't know...I love it.

Well, my crush and his girlfriend broke up...but now I feel bad cause I wished for it the whole time and now that it's happened, I've made friends with his ex and she's not that bad at all! She's short, kinda cute actually...I could see him going for someone like her...which is exactly why I know he'll never go for anyone like me. Ah, well, I still got John lol

School started back today...wasn't as bad as I thought. I only have five teachers instead of six cause I'm stuck with one of them for two periods...which is fine, cause he just so happens to be the coolest one. I really am going to try to do a good job this semester and actually try to pass by more than the hair on my chiny chin chin. It will be hard work, but I will figure out something.

Andi
(PS- Hmmm...Solid Snake)

2004-12-31T08:17:00.000-05:00

I got a late Christmas present...and guess what it was...A CAMCORDER!

This is something I've been wanting for a very very long time. And everytime I had over about $150, I would try and find one! But, it didn't happen until yesterday that I got a camcorder. If I could figure out how to upload certain films and whatnot I would totally post my little movies and whatnot that I always dreamed of making.

My Ephraim site is doing way better than I ever thought it would. While some of his fans are a little crazed (not mentioning anyone in particular), most of them are very nice and know how to contain themselves. I have no problem communicating with those people it's the crazies I have a problem with. And I REALLY hate when people write to me and ask me for Ephraim's email address. "I DON'T KNOW and even if I DID know, I would NOT give it to YOU!"

Other than that, running my site has been fun, and I want to do it for many many years to come...or as long as my mom will pay for internet.

2004-12-18T23:02:00.000-05:00

Well, I've done it again. I've "adopted" if you will another person that I think is amazingly talented but hugely overlooked.

David Hayter.

Although you've probably never heard the name, you know his work. I promise you. David has had a hand in writing X-Men 1 and 2 and the Scorpion King. Not to mention he does the voice of my one and only love Solid Snake from the Metal Gear games. And as small as it is, Hayter also does the famous line at the beginning of EA Sports games. You know the one. You say it everytime you play Madden. "EA Sports-It's in the game!".

Because of this amazingly talented fellow, I've decided to start a fan site for him, this time seeking help from the one and only Justine of KITH2K. I figured I've already screwed up my Kids in the Hall site and my Ephraim site, I want to do David's right.

Got my Christmas present from "The Liz" on Friday. And guess what it was? "The Kids in the Hall: The Complete Second Season"!!!!!!!! I did my little ballarena turn as I went to open it. I couldn't believe my eyes! I finally had it. I know Liz doesn't read this anymore really, but THANK YOU AGAIN!!!!!!

My crush got the internet so I have to be careful of what I write now. I started to give him my blog address but I figured he might smarten up and figure out how to get into the archives and check out what I've been writing about him, which is nothing bad, but still things I wouldn't want him to see...not just yet.

Well, I guess I'll write again to sell my David Hayter site. I know the design is going to rock, I just hope what I put on it will be as the look of it.

Because I am super lazy and don't feel copying and pasting it here and then editing it, view my "Trimming the Tree" post at my forum where it's all nice and neat and whatnot.

I've been getting "rave reviews" lately for my Ephraim Ellis site. The site is about to reach 700 hundred if it hasn't by the time I finish typing this post. It took almost a year for Long Live the Kids in the Hall to reach 1000 where as it'll take the EE (not Emma Emerich, Nita) only a few weeks.

I have so many things to do. LIKE:

-Finish "The Philosophy of Fandom"
-Scan WWE Pictures, upload them, and put them...somewhere.

Okay, so that's just two things...but those are two very big things that I sill need to get done.

Also, I, and totally by mistake, have started writing a Silent Hill fanfic type thing. And I can tell you how is started.
I was thinking today in class about the Silent Hill movie due out sometime next year and how badly I don't want it to suck. And I was thinking:"You know, it would be really funny if the main characters were walking down the street or something and they had a girl dressed up as Heather (from SH3) walk by and say hello."
Then, that lead to me thinking: "Actually, it would be cool if Heather was one of the main characters.
Which ultimately lead to:"I think I have an idea for a Silent Hill movie!"

The concept:
Vera Singleton (working name) a rookie reporter working for the "Ashfield Informer" is sent on her first major out of town assignment but soon discovers that the town is Silent Hill, the legendary town only a few miles away.
Her assignment is to talk to and interview anyone (or anything) that still resides there to find out the truth about what happened to the town's biggest cases: Harry Mason (SH), James Sunderland (SH2), Heather Morris (SH3) and Henry Townshend (SH4). After interviewing a few of the long time and lifetime residents, she finds out that everyone who survived that lived in SH before their incidents (with the exeception of Harry...he died in SH3 and Henry) still lives in or moved to Silent Hill. In her quest to find out the truth behind the victims, she soon finds she could become one herself.

Yeah, I know...not real original. But, I like it and I think it has potential to really come out good and not suck if it were ever turned into a movie.

Well, that's all for me. Not a whole lot going on but a whole lot to do. See ya!

Got a new stereo as an early Christmas present and am happy to report that it is officially smarter than I am. As I type this, I have JUST figured out how to open the tape deck.

The WWE event, as always was amazing. Nothing through the night really shocked or amazed me expect when Molly Holly came out...and she was not on the card. When her name was mentioned and her music started playing, I started freakin out...like I haven't in a long time. I've been a fan of Molly for about as long as I've been a fan of Spike's and seeing her and Lita all in the same night overhelmed me. Seeing CJ (Chris Jericho) for the third time was very nice. After all, the man just gets more and more perfect looking everytime I see him. I was very disappointed when he and his band Fozzy performed at a local club and I couldn't go. But, now I have Heather to thank for rubbing it all up and down my face...but, I degress

In anycase, seeing "The Game" Triple H was an amazing experience. He may be the worst person inside and outside the ring...but the man has a certain ora about him that you can't help but get shivers from.

Besides waiting for the pictures from my event to get back, I've been writing something called "The Philosphy of Fandom" or simple translated, "the philosphy of being a fan". It's gonna piss off some people...and perhaps even make some people think...but, I hope to get a rise out of people somehow.

Well, it shall take until next Christmas to figure out fully how to work this genious stereo of mine...but, I shall try.

Andi

2004-12-01T02:06:00.000-05:00

Well, 3 days until the big WWE event...and the excitment is kicking in a little...very little. It almost doesn't seem like it's going to happen. My first year getting ringside and I am the calmest I've ever been about an event...this is strange.

In other news

Finally, after being almost forced to do so, I submitted my Wish List to Liz which consisted of 3 items...all hailing from Ebay.com and all having to do with Metal Gear!

My first item- Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater t-shirt

It's black with the official logo on the front and the date of release on the back along with the little Snake Curl thingy. It's beautiful, and as corny as it may seem, I've always wanted a Metal Gear shirt...just so I could feel like I was a part of something that not a whole lot of girls don't dig (hell, that a log of guys don't dig). And it's the only black one that I could find...all the other ones are white and I think we all know what happens to white shirts...and then we all know what happens to people who decides to screw up Andi's very important white shirt

That was the MAIN thing...the secondary things are as follows:

My second item- The Documents of Metal Gear Solid 2

This is pretty much exacly what it sounds like.
When SoL (Sons of Liberty) was released, it left a lot of fans scratching their heads about what had just happened and how it all happened. So, being the beautiful people that they are, Kojima and his team dreamed up "The Documents" to clarify some of the misunderstood things...and show the some of the behind the scenes things like how the characters were made, early character sketches, and so on. Very rare.

My Last item- Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance

Since everything couldn't fit onto SoL, Konami released Substance, almost a second part to it. While much of it is having fun with the characters (Like having Solid Snake and Raiden of all things skateboard!), it's added on VR missions, Snake Tales, and etc. Almost like SoL's VR Missions I guess.

That's my wish list, in it's entirety...to Liz anyway...there are lots of things I wanted to put on there such as posters, and action figures, but I figure I just better stick to what I got...the three most important things I could think of.

Although I already have in mind what I will be getting Anita, Marie (which I can't wait to buy and send) and Liz, I am still going to ask first and see if I could squeeze that into my very, VERY tight budget...which I'm sure I'll be able to.

Not yet in the Christmas spirit or excited about the WWE Event...but, I'm getting there I suppose

2004-11-25T08:59:00.000-05:00

Well, Happy Turkey Day all! Does it seem like Thanksgiven or is it just me? It's seems like there should be TV shows or something or a parade or something right?

Other than getting ready to go out to my cousin's house to eat and socialize, I bought ANOTHER cd! This time:
The Killers-"Hot Fuss"
Yep, that catchy ass song ("Somebody Told Me") got me too. They don't really sound like I expected them to, but they have a really nice sound with sythesizers and what not that gave me a real throw back to the 80s. Good CD. If you miss the 80s music but the not exactly the people who sung the music from the 80s, The Killers could be for you.
I'm running out of CDs to buy now...and this is a good thing. I've never actually ran out of CDs to get. But, I've pretty much gotten everything off my list

The Hives-"Tyrannasaurus Hives"
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs-"Fever to Tell"
Jimmy Eat World-"Futures"
The Killers-"Hot Fuss"

The only ones left are:

The Hives-"Veni Vedi Vicious"
Jimmy Eat World-"Jimmy Eat World"
"Metal Gear Solid 3" Soundtrack (imported...and proabably cost an ungodly amount...but, shit I would kill for it! It has the Snake Eater theme on it and I can't get it out of my head!)

Well, lately I've been talking to this really awesomely nice guy, Stephen that strangely enough goes to my highschool, has a blog (that's how we meet.), games, and watches G4TechTV! I invited him over to my house and I asked him to bring this X-Box...I want to see what Halo is about once and for all. My friend Heather knows him and seems to like him a lot, so, this could be very good.

I've torn apart my old Long Live the Kids in the Hall template and completely revamped and revised and redid it. My original plan was to do it with Marie, but then I realized Marie has a life and has better things in her time to do. But, if I truly need her help, I will be quick to contact her and/or Kris.

Just a reminder to Anita:
WWE EVENT IS NEXT WEEKEND!!!!!!
and I'm still not excited...but I promise, Dec 3th, my head will be spliting and I'll be running around like the idiot I am.

Well, everyone Happy Turkey Day....wait, I said that already, ah well, again!
HAPPY TURKEY DAY!!!!

2004-11-21T06:26:00.000-05:00

Been playing Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater for a few days now and already stuck. Well, not stuck, just fustrated. I got a good idea on how to get past dude ("The End" for those who are playing also) but it's just a little fustrating after you've been playing the game for a good 8 hours and then run into some shit like that.

Got my Ephraim Ellis website up! I'm so happy! I've had about 8 visitors so far (from emailing my friends like crazy who are mostly KITH fans by the way) and I've been posting it everywhere Degrassi and Ephraim fans might be. I think I am the first Ephraim website...that's exciting! :) It's linked wrong on the "links" side of my blog but its right in this post.

I really haven't been doing anything else besides those two things. I really need to add a pictures section to the EE site...but I don't know where to get any pictures from. And I also don't know where to get any info from...there is hardly any about him on the net. And I REALLY don't want to write him and ask him all this stuff...I would just die (again). If in a few months the site still looks really empty like it does now, I will try and email him and ask him.

More of me thinking aloud than posting today...

2004-11-14T01:23:00.000-05:00

WWE HERE WE COME!!!!!

Ringside, baby! Even had to scan the ticket

This is going to rule! Too bad I am not excited...yet. It'll hit me Dec 3th though....whooo hooo me!!!!!

Andi

2004-11-13T01:23:00.000-05:00

Countdown till Snake Eater: 4 days

What an awesome week this is and has been for Andi. Thursday, I bought BloodRayne, Monday I go on a completely usless field trip to skip classes, and Wednesday is the big for Snake Eater. Not to mention that tomorrow I go and get tickets for the Raw House show that comes here. After that happens, Dec 4, the day of the event, won't come fast enough.

Ephraim Ellis deleted his LJ...may I remind people of what I said not so long ago:

Thursay October 28, 2004

"Ephraim Ellis has a live journal...that the good news
Ephraim Ellis is an actor on Degrassi, and soon probably have a gag slapped on him...in short meaning he can't journal anymore...and that is the bad news..."

I so knew what was up! And now it's happened...damn, Andi, you are good!
And I KNOW this is the reason...that, or he didn't have enough time...but I doubt that...he posted more than me...almost. Show biz sucks.

I am thinking about doing the unthinkable...writing him and telling him how disappointed he had to delete his journal. I truly did enjoy reading his entries. He's naturally funny and it comes out very clearly in his writing.

Oh well, off to play some more BloodRayne and get to bed so I wake up nice and early to purchase tickets tomorrow. Ringside, baby!

Andi

2004-11-10T23:12:00.000-05:00

::sigh:: I miss Spike Dudley already.
You say: Andi, why do you miss Spike Dudley? He's right on Smackdown where he's always been.
I say: Well, oh curious imaginary friend of mine that I created so long ago in one of my drunken stupors, simply because Raw is coming to Savannah again, but this time, Spike is on Smackdown. Oh, the body parts I would hack off and sell to see Spike again live.

The feeling I remember getting from that was unbelievable. Ever since that night, I've been waiting for Raw to come back so that I could maybe, just *maybe* actually MEET him next time. But, right after Smackdown taped here, and I thought the next Raw I would see would have Spike, THE SWITCHED HIM TO SMACKDOWN!!!! Ladies and Gents, I could not even begin to explain the combined rage and complete letdown I felt. So, to make myself feel better, I thought "Well, maybe Smackdown will double back and do a house show"
Wrong.
And here I am now, waiting to get tickets to Raw...a Raw that's Spikeless. I'm not sayin that I am not happy to be going to my 4th WWE Live event in the past 2 years, but my disappointment is weighing heavy on me now realizing that what I've been waiting for since September 6, 2003...isn't going to happen and it'll just be another house show. BUT, Andi is going to enjoy it to the fullest extent she possibly can.

Is that it? Yes, I think so. Off to bed...got a big weekend coming up.

2004-11-07T18:06:00.000-05:00

Finally did something I've been wanting to do for a long time. A friendship contract!

It's exactly what it sounds like. A contract of friendship between two people no matter how rough things get. I actually made my mom sign one...that's how excited and somewhat serious about this I am.

Pretty crazy eh? It's hard to read. I wouldn't know what to do if I got one of those! I would think that person was a little insane.
Note: Liz, Marie, your contracts will be delivered to you any day now. I have enclosed a letter on instructions for the contracts :)

Anyway, that's my life. Making friend ship contracts...man, what is wrong with me!

Well, that's all for now!

2004-11-06T21:44:00.000-05:00

Made this today:

Of course, it's Karen O from the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to find a good pic of her! I like it, but It's not of my faves. It's so simple, I think I reaching that creative block I feared so much.

I can't think of anything else that happened to day..except I got about 60 CD-Rs to last me the rest of this year and a good portion of the next. And I got two messenger bags from Walmart for like 3 bucks! That's good stuff. I was getting tired of the one I had before, which was nice, but it didn't have any straps. I got a red and black one, and a black and white canvasy one. They roxors.

Can you tell I have nothing to do? Get back at ya later.

2004-11-06T21:35:00.000-05:00

Got this from a LJ, thought they were pretty interesting.

1. Tell me something obvious about yourself. I'm a freak
2. Tell me something about yourself that I don't know. I have UFO for a pet
3. What is your biggest fear? Heights and Pop Music

As the days go on, I find myself wanting John again, and even more the second time around. I called myself "getting over him" for about a week or two, and then the teacher put us right next to each other (I think she meant to do that) and then the feelings came back. That smell of his Axe, that carelessness of his hair that I try and sneak in a touch or two every now and then, and those blue eyes...oh, those blue eyes! I know you may have read this in a book or somewhere before, I truly feel sometimes that when he looks at me, he can see straight threw me and knows everything I am thinking which causes me to sometimes look away...and that scares me. I can remember the last time I had a crush, what I can't remember is the last time I ever thought about acting on it.

BUUUUUT, in other news

Got "Fever to Tell" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. May I just say that if you have been feeling the same way about music as I have (Like..."hmmm, that Simple Plan and New Found Glory sure did killed punk") you NEED THIS CD! MUSIC IS NOT ALL THE WAY DEAD...just disabled...but that's okay! Cause it LIVES!

Why this CD rocks so hard: Well, come on guys, this is the freakin YYYs! But other than that stated fact, Karen O (leadsinger of course) has written such great verses as:

"Cold light
Hot night
Be my heater, be my lover
And we can do it to each other"- "Cold Light"

"Boy you just a stupid bitch
And girl you just a no good dick"-"Black Tongue"

"I gotta a man that makes me wanna die
I gotta man that makes me wanna diel
I gotta man that makes me wanna...
Yeah, I gotta man that makes me wanna die
Say we're all gonna burn in hell
Say we're all gonna burn in hell"-"Man"

They rule.

Has anyone noticed how absolutely awesome Liz Phair is? I've been a fan of her music for a while but in all truths, she is just a very beautiful person. So, I dug up some pics of her and created, as Liz called, art.

I love this one! Don't know why, but I think it's some of my *best* work.

This one I like, but there is something missing from it still...

This one, of course is the Hives, and it's very simple, but I really like it. Something about it. I want to put this on a shirt one day. Anyone else notice how hot Howlin' Pete Almqvist is (ego and all)?

Well, Bush won...another 4 years, here we come.

Wow, I have a boring life...

2004-11-02T23:11:00.000-05:00

You say: Oh Andi, why do you post at a blog and a Live Journal when no one reads eiher?
I say: Hmmm....good question. Perhaps I like the abilty to put my life and experiences into my own words for other people to enjoy and learn from...or maybe I am just pathetic.

I had a really crazy dream a few nights ago...

I was in class, minding my own business, when my whole class (a class I had never seen before) burst into "2 Timing Touch and Broken Bones". But, my good readers, they were not only singing it, but doing this dance to it that I kept fucking up. I am pretty sure listening to "Tyrannosarus Hives" about 7 times in one day something to do with this.

In a really strange chain of events, I ended up making this. And it's for my good friend Cory who's ego has it's own social security number. But, we love him anyway. I think I am going to show this two him. He will do one of two things. A)love it and want to keep it (which I have a printed out version of it prepared should he choose this option. or B)hate it and want to kill me (which I have insurence prepared should he choose this option). We shall just have to see.

Hmmm...I think that's all.

PS, Printers are good...and HP Printers are even better (notice the cheap plug for my computer's brand, perhaps to get it to work better...)

Read over poem that I sent to Andrew WK a few years back...well, it seems like a good idea at the time.
Got a Live Journal...don't know why...not like I need it.
Bloggin is way cooler
Andi is going to bed...long day tomorrow

2004-10-28T19:40:00.000-05:00

Ephraim Ellis has a live journal...that the good news
Ephraim Ellis is an actor on Degrassi, and soon probably have a gag slapped on him...in short meaning he can't journal anymore...and that is the bad news
Andi is going to try and enjoy Ephraim's journal as long as they will allow him to post at it cause he actually may beat me in posting! ...and, see, we have good news again!

And I will stop there

Reports Cards come out tomorrow and I don't think I have to say I am not "leaping for joy". I could think of other places I'd rather be tomorrow. At home, in bed...in Canada. But, I am a little curious to see just how horrible I failed. This little piece of paper that will determain my fate (and some weekends) could look something like this.

1st period (Computer Applications)- Failed. But, not my fault. The teacher is a dunce and knows nothing about computers. And as Bryan I discovered today, she can't type either.

2nd period (Health)-Failed. But again, not my fault. Teacher is a TRUE nutcase, and I don't say that much. But, considering the guy told us he had twin brother that lived in SC that he switch places with sometimes so you never know if it's him or his brother teaching, tells me they should put this guy in the Happy House of Savannah...and soon!

3rd period-(Civics)-Passed. Just because Mr. Mercer is so damn cool! I've actually been aware of him since elementary school ,and even coming into his class remembered from...er...many years ago that he taught 3rd grade when I was in elementry. Long live the Civics teacher.

4th period-(Concepts of Algerbra)- Passed. Again, another cool teacher...Mr. Konanman...or something like that. I was actually a little shocked to see I passed his class...considering I am not in there half the time and when I am in there, I am talking...Long live the COA teacher.

5th period-(12th grade Comp.Lit)- FAILED FAILED FAILED FAILED FAILED...and quite miserably might I add!!!!!

6th period-(Physical Science B)- Passed...at least I think. Ms. Nissen is very cool, but she's hard to read. She's got her favorites...the ones that shut up and don't give her any trouble...and then she's got the people in the class that do work, which isn't always the same people. I think I may be one of the few that has a place in both catagories.

School sucks. Life's still. Ephraim Ellis is hot.

I knew you'd agree.

Nothin much going on here I guess...I did just get finished reading my favorite book of ALL TIME for the 3rd time.

"Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes

This HAS to be the best book ever written.I read this book when I was in the 7th grade or so and really loved it, but going over it again has made me love it even more (now that I am older and some people may even say wiser). And in case ya been living under a rock for 40 years, I'll give you a rundown of what's it's about.

Charlie Gordon, is mentally challeged and all his life has dreamed of being smart. When one day, the opprotunity comes and jumps at the chance! What might this opporuntiy be? A suregry sponsered by a local University to try and increase the IQ level in low IQ people.

I won't give too much a way, you will have to read the book if you want to find out. I promise you, if you do read this, you will NOT regret it...EVER!

Andi

2004-10-20T03:40:00.001-05:00

Guess what? Andi got a forum...a REALLY big forum where you can talk about anything and say anything! it's called Culture Clash and I called it that because it touches on everything from Wrestling to Degrassi...all of Andi's little obessions. Check it out!

Other than that...life is normal.

2004-10-17T05:08:00.000-05:00

I just want to say thank you to everyone who showed their concerned for me. You know who you are! But in case you don't...Marie, Liz, Anita, Dave (yes, I'm talkin to you fellow Spike fan) thanks for being awesome and listening to me ramble on and on.

Now, back to my usual mundane runnin on about observations and just life in general.

I guess I am done with Billy. He hasn't called, and I don't talk to him in the hallways anymore. Just a simple wave and sometimes not even that. It doesn't really bother me though. I think I was starting to kinda not like him anyway. He's a good guy and everything...but the fact that he had a girlfriend and was always so anxious to come to my house always bothered me and made me wonder what kind of a boyfriend he was to be going spending the night over at some girls house he didn't even really know...and what kind of girlfriend she was for being okay with this.

The Good News
It seems that over the past few weeks, Bryan and I (my crush) have become closer. We talk online ALL THE TIME and even talk more in class now. And Friday, throught a really strange chain of events, I found out he actually knew my name! For the longest time, I thought he just kinda referred to me as the "girl that sits next to him in computer class".

The Bad News
Not only is he my crush...he's my crush with a girlfriend now. I've told this to several people and they've suggested things like telling him to break up with her, but the truth is, it actually doesn't bother me. When I did find out he had a girlfriend, I kinda laughed to myself. All this flirting and googly eyed conversations for nothing! Still kinda makes me smile actually.

Okay, so I guess that really wasn't the bad news, but, the closest thing to bad news I have at this moment.

Oh yeah, I think I have a *new* obsession. Ready...here it comes...all at once now!
The Yeah Yeah Yeahs!

This band is SO awesome and will blow your mind so far out of your head! I must get CD...(along with that new one by the Hives) Hopefully I will be able to do it when my science class goes on our field trip and stop by the mall. After I heard "Y Control", I knew my obsession had been set deep.

Anita and I for Halloween are going to be members from the TV show we can't get enough of, The Tribe
We practiced make up for our costums and took pictures to document them (Along with a tribal version of American Idiot....hard to explain) While I can't show our "video", I can post the pics.

Lovely aren't we? That's not going to be our designs...but we just wanted to get a feel for it.

Well, that's all for now. I shall be posting more boring things later.

It's good to be back

2004-10-10T02:12:00.000-05:00

Over the past week or so, I know I've been using the blog to just kinda complain and whatnot. So, to everyone who reads I want to say that I am sorry...and that I'm not done yet.

Mike. The person I think my soul has been searching for, the person my world revolves around, the person I want to spend the rest of my life with weather it be friends or something more. I mean every word of this with everything I have in me, which isn't much. This whole situation is just fustrating and draining and sometimes I think to myself, "why do I stay? I have so much ahead of me, I could just go and never have to deal with this." And then I realize that Mike is my life and has been since I was 15 years old. For the past 2 years almost, every Tuesday and Sunday night (sometimes Tuesdays and Thursdays) was my time with Mike. We talked about everything and nothing was off limits (well, a few things but I didn't mind). I could be in the worst mood of my life. Weather it be with my mom, school, friends, or just "one of those days", Mike would do everything in his power to make sure that I was laughing before I got off that phone...or at least was able to forget about it 2 hours. And I tried to do the same with him, but I never thought I actually did anything. Sure, I made him laugh whenever he was having a shitty day or something, but I never knew what I did actually cheered him up. So, I determained a long time ago that I needed Mike a lot more than he ever really needed me. And I went with that feeling for a very long time. And I guess it always kinda haunted me in the back of my mind that because Mike didn't really need me, he could drop me at anytime if something prettier (and skinnier) came along. There was every clue in front of my face that that wasn't the case, but sometimes I just don't listen to those tiny voices that tell you the good things, but the ones that tell you bad things, perhaps the stuff that easier to believe or comprehend.
So recently, when Mike started dating, it never really bothered me. I'd convinced myself a long time ago that Mike and I would never be anything more than just friends and that even if we could, I couldn't stop him from dating from a state away.
So, a while back, Mike went about a week without calling or emailing me or anything. And at first I was upset...but when it came into my head that there might be something more serious going on, I became insanely worried. I even talked to Cory about it (who did very little for the whole situation) which is something I try to avoid doing. I enjoy helping my friends with problems, but I am that person who smiles all the time even though things are killing me inside cause I don't want anyone's help. I just keep it all inside until it becomes too much.
In anycase, after that whole thing, our calling schedual changed dramaticly. Sometimes, I would hear from him once a week for about 15 minutes...or sometimes just not at all. And it didn't even really phase me. Of course, I wished I could hear from him, but I figured Mike had WAY better things to do that talk to his 17 year old side project.
But a week ago, everything came down on me with a vengence. While I was talking to another one of Mike's friends and listening to her go off about how much of an ass he was (he was obviously doing the same thing to her, but I was just taking it a little better), instead of taking up for Mike like I had been, I started agreeing. "Yes, Mike is an ass.", "I really don't need this", "I try and do everything I can for him and this is what I get in return? As soon as the first pretty little thing comes along, I get dumped to side like nothing."
With that mindframe, I wrote Mike a very heated letter telling him what I was feeling and ending it saying that I "never needed to hear from him again".
That Tuesday I tried to forget about that whole thing, but Wednesday, it came down on me...and hard. I cried pretty much all lunch time and all 4th period. People asked if I was okay...and without hesitation, I gave my usual response to avoid all helping hands. "Yeah, I'm okay". But I wasn't okay, and I knew that...and I think the most insensitive prick would know it too.
That day I got a letter from Mike saying how sorry he was for the recent events, and like I knew I would, I forgave him. "I'll just sit on the fence a little longer and wait until he regains interest in me, I guess." I thought.
Thursday, he asked if he could call me.
"Hmmm...write a nasty letter....so THAT'S how I get him to call?"
When he did call, he apologize and explained what had been going on. Later I realized that I had forgiven him long before I ever picked up that phone and that hearing his voice was the greatest thing I had heard in a LONG time. For a while, we went around the situation, talking about the news, projects, and everything else that would come to mind. But I guess we couldn't avoid it any longer. We talked about the letter, the way it made me feel to write it, the way it made him feel to read it, and before I knew it, we were both in tears and I wanted to be next to him at that moment more than I ever had. I think it was at that moment that I realized that I wasn't his "17 year old side project" or that I needed him more than he needed me. We both needed each other about the same, which was badly. And more than anything, I realized I truly, could not live without him.
I was really happy after we got off the phone. Everything had come together so suddenly in a snap, that it was not until yesterday, Saturday, that I realized I might not talk to him again for a long time (he had told me this in the phone conversation, but the rest of the night just kinda over shawdowed the thought I suppose) and before I knew it, I was crying again and depressed...again. I tried everything to get my mind off of it, but every part of me ached for him and anything I tried to do just did a 180 back to the situation at hand.
For now, I've stopped crying and managed not to let the whole thing bother me as much. But I know I'm not done crying...I don't think I ever will be

2004-10-08T07:46:00.000-05:00

It took long enought, but I finally got my Green Day-"American Idiot" review up on my site. I have to say, it one of my best works. I just wish I would have made it just a little longer.

Everything is fine between Mike and I again...actually, it's better than before. Last night, I realized just how much I care and love him and the lengths I would go to to make him happy. I want to spend the rest of my life with him. And it doesn't have to be a boyfriend/girlfriend type way. Just to be able be around him and love him is enough. For the first time in a long time, I can smile. I mean, REALLY smile without it looking forced. Mike makes me happy...plain and simple.

Andi

2004-10-05T19:53:00.000-05:00

Felling a lot better today. Talked to some TRUE friends, listened to some Green Day, and I'm feeling like my old self again.

I did do something that I almost regret yesterday though. I ended my friendship with Mike...only to be completely forgiving to him less than 12 hours later. The story of my life, people.

It's a VERY long story so I won't tell it here. But I will say that the email that I wrote last night was something I felt at the time that I should do. And while I do not regret writing the letter, I just wish I would have thought a thru a little more before writing it. I love Mike very much, more that I thought I could love anyone after James. And Mike is the whole reason I got over James and didn't stay a complete emotional wreck over it. Mike has listened to all my stupid teenager stories when he could be out doing much better and more interesting things. He's had patience for me through everything and now he needs me and what do I do? I write him a letter telling him that I never want to hear from him again. I'm a bad person.

Andi

2004-10-04T20:35:00.001-05:00

I know this is going to sound really fucked up, but sometimes I wish I just lived in a secluded area of the country where there was no one but me. I never had to talk about anything to anyone and everyone who passed thru my secret area would be shot on sight. All I had to do was sit in my shack and watch wrestling having no contact with the outside world.

I love all my friends...but sometimes I feel I would be better off without them. I feel myself slipping back into my old ways again and it's not fun. I think being at Windsor is bringing back memories from Jenkins which for the most part was okay but has some bad times in there. Right now, I feel like I can't trust anyone and that the whole world is talking behind my back, including Cory, which is the one that hurts the most. This attitude is why I usually sat alone at lunch and seemed bitter towards everyone. All I wanted to do is come home and watch wrestling. No human interaction, no friends...just wrestling.

If things keep going the way they are now, I can see myself back in this state very soon.

2004-10-01T20:46:00.000-05:00

Reading an old post of mine...I can't believe I got so excited about giving Cory my number! Now, it's all I have not to unplug the phone if I think he's gonna call. My, how things change.

Nothing really going on here. Anita will probably come over tomorrow...and maybe I will even call Billy and ask him to come over.

Oh, that's right...you have NO clue who he is.

Billy is someone I just recently kinda meet since being at Windsor. He was Cory's friend first and now he's a good friend of mine. He's really cute with an adorable lisp and he's just the type of guy I like. Cute, funny, and able to wear the same brand of eyeliner as me. But there are only a few small problems.

A) He's got a girlfriend, who I respect very much. Sometimes he acts like he doesn't have one, but hey, so does Cory. Don't worry, I am not wishing a break up upon these two, but I kinda sense it coming.

B) He's way short! Which wouldn't be a problem is he was...Bruce McCulloch who's got and ego and a personality that makes you forget he's a 4 foot nothing angry little man. I am getting more used to the height thing though. The more and more I see him, the more I realize I'm not that much taller than him.

C) Even if I do sense a break up between him and his girlfriend and getting to where the height thing doesn't bother me, I'm still not sure weather or not I would want to date this guy. And I don't know why! He's pretty much everything I want in a guy...so why aren't I drooling and obsessing? Can anyone explain this thing they call hormones to me!!!

I invited Billy to come over next weekend and hang out and play some games. I really hope I don't regret this. Oh well, I have a whole week to cancel if sense me being a bad girl while he's here.

"Songs Stuck in Andi's Head" (they take their turns hourly...it's a slow torcher thing I guess)
1. Modest Mouse- "Ocean Breathes Salty"
I saw some of the video for this this morning and it was stuck in my head for the first portion of my day. I am playing the whole damn ablum to get it out of the way and OUT OF MY HEAD!
2. The Von Blondies- "Come on, come on"
If you haven't heard this song, You are one of the lucky ones! It's catchy, it's upbeat, and you'll never get it out of your head! I was watching "Video Mods" on MTV (which is MTV's greatest show since the "Big Urban Myth Show") where they take your fave videos and let video game characters from popular games remake them!
3. Green Day- "American Idiot"
I spend the better portion of my day with this damn song in my head... For what reason? Don't ask. It must be Tre Fever (I wonder if Anita has it still???)

2004-09-27T06:35:00.000-05:00

The big bad rain storm's over!
and Daria lives!!!

Well, not really, but we haven't seen any tornados and whatever tropical storm that was supposed to come thru here really hasn't. I guess Savannah is just blessed. But Daria does live:)

Made MORE Green Day wallpaper. I was actually going to post it last night but photobucket was experiencing site difficulties or something...so I didn't get to. I bet no one but me is ever going to use these...but I enjoy making them. I at least want to submit this one to a Green Day site or something.

Me and my student..er...best friend

2004-09-26T18:31:00.000-05:00

Anita and I had another fun filled weekend together...for about the 7th weekend in a row!
In these 7 weekends, I have been doing something like brainwashing her.

First, it was the Tribe...which I practically made her watch one week.
Then, came the Kids in the Hall a few weeks later.
And now, Green Day. ALL weekend, we listened to Green Day (all nine albums i think) and watched just about every video Yahoo Launch had to offer.
I don't think I really have no other obsessions to offer...my work is complete

2004-09-25T06:44:00.000-05:00

Friday...was wild and crazy...and AGAIN Anita had to miss it! One day, I am going to just make Sara drive over to Anita's house so she can expericence some of this crazyiness with us.

Anyway, right after half day, I went to sleep...but I was awaken by a call from Cory who really wanted to apologize for taken off with Alanna (his girlfriend) instead of ridding with me like he had said he wanted to do. Cory is the ONLY guy in the world who would apologize for wanting to hang out with her girlfriend and not you. That's why we all love him so.

But, in anycase, after apologizing, he asked if I wanted to go to the movies...and if I did, he would pay.
Um...sure!
So, he called Sara to see if she wanted to go telling her also that he would pay. She, of course being the smart woman that she is, said yes!
She came by to get me and then we headed out to pick up Cory and we sat for a second while he finished his burito and told the great story of "The Pit!!!!" that happened earlier that day. We also decided we were going to go see "Resident Evil Apocolipse" which is Rated R. Now, that's fine for me and Sara. We are both 17 but Cory is 16 and we really didn't know how he was going to get in. We were just kinda hoping that the fact he looked about 18 would be enonugh for them to not check his ID.
On the way to movies, we listened to "American Idiot" and Cory fell in love with the song, "Wake Me Up When September Ends" which is a song by Billie Joe about his father's death 7 years ago. It's such a beautiful song, so I didn't remind listening to it on repeat about the whole way there.
When we got to the movies, the first person I spotted that I knew was a girl named Stacy who I've known since elementry school and she was working the ticket booth. She's in my first period class and friends with the guy that I like. So, when I saw her, I knew Cory was saved. Right after that, we saw Micheal, who we all knew from going to Beach. He graduated last year, but he's always been so cool to me and just a great guy. We bought out ticket and saw that the movie didn't start for another hour or so, so we decided to go to mall right across the street and spend our time over there.
You know, to only have been here for about a year, Cory knows A LOT of people.
We went into the Pac Sun in that mall (the Pac Sun that Cory doesn't even work at!) and met his friend Micha who's reminds me a lot of "Jack" from Will and Grace. He's very openly gay and extremly flamboyant, and will be first to call himself a "queen". He was ultra cool and let us go through stuff and touch things that we shouldn't. lol.
In anycase, on our way to Spencer's, we past by Cold Stone which is ice creame polor with VERY good ice creame. Out of no where, Cory starts yelling "Hey, girl from Spanish Class!" and finally, one of the girls turn around and realize it's Cory. We talk to her for a while (which he learns that her name is Candice) and Cory buys Sara and I coffee ice creame..which is the greatest flavor in the world and orgamsmic as Cory would describe it. He got a coffee milkshake and finally started off to Spencers.
They already had out their Halloween stuff, so Cory entertained us by trying on mask and freaking Sara out.
After that, we went back to Pac Sun where I called my mom and Cory decided to try on girl pants. They actually looked okay which I don't know it it's a good thing or not.
A few minutes in there, and again we were off but this time to see our movie. The movie was actually really good considering the first one wasn't.
When we got out, Sara got a call from her sister, Nikki, saying that she wanted McDonalds.
So, we went to Sara's house (who has a very nice house) and picked up Nikki.
Once we were in McD's, Cory decided that WE (meaning me and him) should go the car and chill while they ordered. Sara gave him her car keys and Cory gave her his keys in collateral or something. Anyway, while we were listeneing to her warn over and over again about not taking her car, Cory was plotting ways to taking it and letting her see it. All he did was back up to the door and and park it back in the parking spot, but I think it was enough to freak her out and never let him hold her keys again.
We went back to Sara's house and Cory played Need For Speed...um...one of them and placed first in very first race. So you know, we had to hear about it all night.
I decided to play Nikki in Smackdown: Here Comes the Pain at which she kicked my ass royally and that doesn't happen a lot. So, congrats to her.
After a while there, Cory got one of this famous itches to go to WalMart. I hate Walmart so this was not such a great idea to me. I found out that Cory was actually looking for black and white film for his camera and when Walmart didn't have it, he wanted to go to K-Mart! After K-Mart, he decided we go to Best Buy (which I love and treat as my second home). He bought BoxCar Racer (which I like to call Blink 182-2) and finally got his black and white film.
We dropped Nikki off and was going to Tharron's house until we found out he was about to to to sleep so, since we were already out that way, we went to Cory's instead. We didn't say long. It was getting kinda late and whatnot. But Cory did entertain us with her version of Green Day's "Blvd. of Broken Dreams"
As Sara was driving me home, we had a deep discussion about what our friends mean to us and how they can make any bad situation okay from just hanging out with them.When I got home, I went straight to sleep.

Okay, so maybe that wasn't wild and crazy by today's standards, but it was still fun and Anita should have been there. NEXT TIME I PROMISE!

Nothing much going on here...execpt STILL listening to Green Day's "American Idiot" and I made GreenDay wallpaper! If anyone is a fan...you can use it :) I think it's kinda cool

Tomorrow is half day...so that's good. Nothing much going but that. I really just wrote to announce my wallpaper.

Oh yes, notice the new banner! BIG THANKS to Marie!

2004-09-22T23:43:00.000-05:00

It's started....

2004-09-21T20:50:00.000-05:00

Andi says: Guess what today is!
You say: The day Andi gets a life and stop posting her pathetic creations on her blog taking up webspace?
Andi says:...no...but it IS the day that Green Day's "American Idiot" came out!!! And I actually have it!

"American Idiot" is, simply put, the greatest thing Green Day has and will ever do. My friend Sara told me the other day:
"I hear people saying that it's going to be better than 'Dookie'"
"I don't know about better than 'Dookie' but it will be good"
Boy, was I ever wrong. This album left me absolutley speechless and amazed. I've never recieved ear candy in such sweet or large doses and let's just say I am on a sugar high right now. If you don't have this album by now, you need to hop to it and get it! If you do have it, you know what I'm talking about. I will hopefully have a full review of it up soon on my KITH site. But until then, just know that it kicks all kinds of ass (and that it's on sale at Media Play for 10 bucks!)

Other than that, life has been pretty normal. We have a half day at school on Friday (which is exactly what it sounds like) so, that just gives me more time to learn the lyrics to "American Idiot" and obsesses over it.

Been flirtin' like crazy. Especially since just about everyone I know (you know who you are) are hooking up. It's time for me to get on the relationship wagon! The canidates: John and Bryan

John is loud, obnoxious and a perv...just the type I hate to attract. But, he's also really sweet and has beautiful eyes that I could stare into until the end of time. He's cute, but it's personality that makes him hot.

Bryan is quiet, shy but has a great smile. I also love the feeling I get when he rolls his computer chair next to mine. He's just so damn hot (well, i think so anyway...but I also think Andrew W.K. is hot so...)

Okay, that enough for me. Let's recap

-American Idiot rocks and if you don't own it, you should be shot
-Andi is a huge flirt and probably won't get either John or Bryan

Andi

2004-09-19T22:02:00.000-05:00

I think this one is my fave...world, watch out! I am getting kinda good at this

2004-09-19T08:05:00.000-05:00

Okay, all this time I've been watching "The Tribe" and "Power Rangers Dino Thunder" I NEVER realized James Napier, Jay from "The Tribe" was also "Conner" from Dino Thunder. But the crazy this is how I think Jay is HOT and Conner isn't! I didn't realize Tom Hern was on Dino Thunder either. I am losing touch with all reality.

2004-09-16T22:02:00.000-05:00

Also made this one of Dave.

2004-09-16T22:00:00.000-05:00

Playing around with a picture edit thing on my comp and ended up doing this! I think it's kinda cool...especially since I am learning to use layers!

2004-09-15T04:13:00.000-05:00

Mood: Let's just say I am about to paint my nails black for the first time in a long time. Part of that is because I just found the damn thing! But mostly, that's just my mood...and it goes well with my spiked bracelet.

Why: I MISS LIZ AND MARIE! Sure, I have other friends here, but who else (besides Anita now maybe) can I sit down with for a whole week and talk about nothing but Kids in the Hall or just goof around with and make the most unfunny jokes in the world and still have someone to laugh at them. NO ONE but them and I am really starting the miss them a lot.

I was reading in both their blogs how Liz went over to Marie's house and they both got drunk. I mean, I don't drink but I still would have loved to have been a part of that! But, I guess that's the price you pay for living so far away.

Listening to: Green Day- "Haushinka" from Nimrod
You say: Andi, where have I heard that "haushinka" name before?
Andi says: haushinka280.tripod.com/longlivethekids (my site)

When I first got that tripod account, it was going to be where I hosted my Green Day site. I DID do a Green Day website but I knew nothing about promoting, so all it did was go un-updated and unoticed. But that Greenday site way my first ever site and it was a good experience either I wouldn't have made another.

Speaking of the great ones that is Greenday. "American Idiot", Greenday's 7th album (Not counting International Superhits and Shenanigans) is going to come out on September 21, 2004 and I couldn't be more excited! I've been a Greenday fan for about 10 years (yep, that's what I said) and this is first time I've been aware of a release date for one of their albums. I credit those guys with pretty much the way I am now. The way I act, think, and what I wear and even what I say. They shaped my personality a long time ago

I finally got to see "A Beautiful Mind". I know I am a little late, but better late than never doncha think? But in anycase, what a GREAT movie! It's been a long time since I've seen a movie that great that DIDN'T make me cry. I also watched "Willard" and "25th Hour" which has the yummy Edward Norton in it. "Willard" was...barable. Not the worst movie in the world but certainly not the best. But, at least it was better than "Freddy Got Fingered". On the other hand, "25th Hour" was AMAZING and is probably something I am going to watch again.

You say: Andi, don't tell me you're turning into a movie buff?!
Andi says: Do I have anything better to do in my time!!!?

2004-09-10T00:41:00.000-05:00

I have a new addiction...and his name is Tom Hern!

2004-09-10T00:17:00.000-05:00

I have a new addiction! Actually...now that I think about it, two new addictions!

Addictions 1: "The Tribe"

The Tribe is a TV show that recently I have not been able to stop watching. I actually watched like a 17 hour marathon of this show on Labor Day. But, I've known about this show for a loooong time. My friend Jennifer gave me a heads up on this show about 4 years ago (somewhere around the show's 2nd season or so) but I watched it once and decided I hated it. But recently while channel flipping (perhaps in order to break from my G4TechTV obsession) I came across it, already expecting to hate it again before even watching it...but boy was I wrong! I quickly fell in love with this show, and all the cast and characters.

Addiction 2: Tom Hern or "Ram"

So, while watching my newly found show, I couldn't help but notice a character (who just so happened to be the bad guy) named Ram. At first, I said to myself "I don't think I like this kid...he over acts his part or something." but, as I watched more, I realized that since the character is in a futuristic wheelchair thing, he only has his upper body to act with. Plus, that's just Ram's character. So, as you can probably guess by now, Tom Hern is the coolest thing since sliced bread to me now, which I totally expected. Hopefully, THIS addiction won't last very long, I TRULY cannot afford it. But, until it does pass, bare with me. To find out more on Tom Hern and the series, you can visit Tribeworld.com

2004-09-02T21:53:00.000-05:00

For some reason, lately I've been stubbling onto some really good music. Modest Mouse with their awesome album "Good News For People Who Love Bad News", Jet with "Get Born" and now, Franz Ferdinand with their self titled album. It's only 11 tracks, but it's still an awesome change from todays bands that all sound the same (i.e. Blink 182, New Found Glory). I gotta admit, when I first heard "Take Me Out", I was thinking I hearing two different songs and the tone switch didn't actually make me crazy for this band. But, it's kinda like "Maps" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. The first 7 times you hear it, you'll hate it...but that 8th time, it'll kick in and be the greastest song you've ever heard. But,if you do get a chance to buy "Franz Ferdinand" you should. There is not even one bad track on this album!

On with my post though....

School, like I said, is going really good for me. Everyone is pretty nice and I seem to be making friends pretty nicely. I left word on here that there was this one guy that I was kinda interesting in and his name is John. He's a really cool guy and he makes me laugh. But, I don't really think he likes me, and I am starting to think that it's okay. I like him, but I don't think I could date him anymore now. The fact that he was 15 used to get to me, but now, for some reason, I can't see myself dating him. Now what will happen, I don't know, and I can't really say that I would turn him down if her ever asked me out, but...well, we'll just have to see what happens.

On the other hand, there is this guy in my first period who I am becoming more and more interested in by the day. His name is Bryan and he's really quiet but he will say something to me every once in a while. I could definently see myself dating him. He's not as wild as John (at least I don't think he is) and he may not have his sense of humor, but there is something in the way he looks at me that I like. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Well, that's all for me. I guess you guys out there say "Andi, you don't ever do school work do you? All you do is flirt and look at guys." And you know what I have to say to that..."You are absolutely right."

Andi

Made this in my spare time...thought it would be pretty cool. Its Heather from Silent Hill 3. I don't think she's all the pretty nor was she the greatest character in the world, I just find her photogetic for some reason...anyway, let me know what you think

2004-08-28T00:01:00.000-05:00

If you've played...you'd understand. No time to blog now...i tried to do a full post earlier but it deleted everything, so, i said screw it. All you need to know is that I am enjoying my new school Windsor Forest High and that I have a crush on someone I just met there.

2004-08-20T20:31:00.000-05:00

Hello good people of the internet and KITH community,

School has started back for all the good people of Savannah and yes, once more life blows. Not really looking forward to the school year, just looking forward to fact that I won't be going back after this year!
In other things to occupy my time, I've done something I've wanted to do for a long time. Create a soundtrack!
Now, a long time ago, I wrote this movie script (which thankfully, is known of by many and read by a few) and I had a soundtrack for that, but I lost it and it wasn't all the great anyway. My second attempt at it is for this wrestling fantic stoyline type thing that me and my friend Anita have been writing for a little over four years. I got the bright I idea while writing a story part and listening to the radio. As I was writing and listening, I realized how greatly the song went along with the scene I was writing. IT WAS BRILLIANT and it didn't talk long to come up with some great music for this thing either. I changed a lot of the tracks a million times and changed the track list more times than I care to remember, but in the end, everything came out great. Now, I've got to admit, a few of these songs have been or currently are on hit soundtracks. Perfect example, "Vindicated" by Dashboard Confessional which was one of the first songs on the soundtrack...and the song that gave me this great idea. Great song, but it's on the Spiderman 2 soundtrack. But, you know what, I think it sounds better on mine! ;) I've got 15 songs in all. Some of them need explaining as to why I picked them, but most of them have the feeling and vibe of the story in them which is intense and dramatic mixed with comedic moments and touching ones. Let's just say that if you had never even really read any of the storyline, and just knew about the characters, you could figure it all out by the end of the CD. It's that good and I usually don't brag. I wanted themes for my two main characters, which is Anita's character, Eris, and my character, Karree (if you read it right, you'll realize I got it from Digimon). I haven't been in touch with Anita for some time now so, I only picked a theme for Karree which I think I did a pretty good job of wrapping up her personality in the song I picked. I guess Eris will have hers in Volume 2. In anycase, the moment you've all been waiting for, the TRACKLIST!

1. Hoobastank- "Out Of Control"
2. Liz Phair- "Why Can't I"
3. The Yeah Yeah Yeahs- "Maps"
4. Powerman 5000- "Nobody's Real"
5. Evanescence- "Going Under"
6. 311- "Love Song"
7. The White Stripes- "Aluminum"
8. Junior Senior- "Shake Your Cocomuts"
9. Dashboard Confessional- "Vindicated"
10. Craig N orthey- "Slow Motion"
11. Liz Phair- "Extraordinary" (Karree's Theme)
12. Andrew W.K.- "She is Beautiful"
13. Staind- "Epiphany"
14. The B-52s- "Love Shack"
15. Story Of the Year- "Anthem of Out Dying Day"

As you can see, the soundtrack is pretty intense, just like the storyline is. Also, if you'll notice, Liz Phair is the only artist that appears twice. She truly does have a song for everything, and I didn't want to use two song, but when it came down to it, I couldn't use anyone else to express what I wanted to thru song.

Well, that all for now. If anyone wants to know more about the storyline, email me and I will try to explain it in 2500 words or less. My email is andi_kith@yahoo.com.

Later Dayz!
Andi

2004-08-13T07:39:00.000-05:00

I wait for this day every year and I am sooo excited it's finally here! I've been thinking about it even more than I did my birthday!
Aaaand you say: Andi, why is August 13, 2004 so imortant to you?
Aaaand I say: Because on August 13, 1970, Matthew Hyson was born, better known as, Spike Dudley

Every year I plan to write something but every year, I feel that my writing skills aren't up to par enough to write anything in the honor of Spike. A long time ago, I wrote something called "Ode to Spike Dudley" but it was just spur on of the moment and it was on a message board. Sure, I used to write for a wrestling website (Which I will not list here so you can go back and read all my embarassing articles) but I truly think I was hired because I would be the youngest person there, therefore, creating a gimmick for the site, but, I regress.

It is Spike Dudley's birthday, and in celebration, I have decided to do these things:
-Not get upset by all the little things that usually upset me. I'll have plenty of time for that tomorrow.
-Watch whatever old taped Smackdowns/Raws that I have with a match he was in. Including my favorite, which is a funny little angle between Steven Richards, Terri, and himself
-Wear my imaginany Spike Dudley shirt that WOULD have been real if I had ordered it a little sooner.
-Watch, and this is my favorite, "Before They Were WWF Superstars: Vol. 1", but ONLY his segment (which is kinda what I do anyway)
-And finally, but not least, just try and hope that by next year, maybe just maybe, I would have gotten to meet him (offiicially that is) and maybe even get the chance to wish him late/early happy birthday in person.

Oh yes, that reminds...a few days ago I posted something that looked like this: SPIKE IS A HEEL!
Okay, for all you non wrestling fans that read this out of sheer boredom, a "heel" is simply a bad guy. Spike has been a "face" (A good guy) his whole time in the WWE, which pretty much got him no where except a prematurely killed storyline with Molly Holly. So, going heel, in this case, is a very good thing.

Okay, I've killed your interest already, so I'll end it here by saying: HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPIKE!!!!

2004-08-13T04:51:00.000-05:00

Happy birthday to the coolest Dudley out there, Spike! Where ever you are, I hope you having the greatest day possible and don't let the fact that it fell Friday the 13th spook ya. Don't do anything Andi would do(which is sit around all day watching "Jason" movies. Good thing you don't have time for that). Love, Andi

2004-08-10T23:33:00.000-05:00

I will never forgive Tripod for this! Actually MAKING me use HTML!!!!! What in the hell is the matter with them? Don't they know I know nothing about that crap and would probably DIE trying to learn! That's the reason I went with Tripod in the first place...because you didn't have to speak that computer languge crap! WHYYYYYYYY???!!!!!

2004-08-07T07:21:00.000-05:00

Andi, my friends, is very happy....and WHY is Andi so happy...because Spike is a heel!!!

2004-08-04T21:41:00.000-05:00

I really don't have anything to blog about but I really don't have anything to do right now either. I can't work on my Metal Gear site right now because I have forgotten that I still have to write things to go up there...and no one is on either Yahoo or AIM right now...so I will come and talk about nothing here on my little corner of the web.

Well, here;s something right here...I DON"T HAVE THE KITH DVDS! And personally I really don't want to hear anymore about them because I think I will just cry if I do.

Even though my birthday was way long ago, Mike is still looking for something to give me for my birthday. First, it was going to be Adam Sandler's first cd which he said was funnier than hell...then he was going to write me something really sweet until he got the idea that it would be too sappy (I was really looking forward to that but...oh well) and now he is hell bent on getting me the KITH DVDs which is really sweet but I don't think he'll ever come through with it. I love Mike and I know his interntions are well, but I really just don't see it happening. I really don't understand this whole thing he has with getting me a birthday present. I told him it was no big deal (because it isn't) but he insist on it saying that its because of the great Christmas present I gave him almost a half a year ago. I'm really happy that he still likes it 6 months later, but I hope he isn't trying to pay me back or something because really, the pleasure was all mine. I love him so much and it was just a small token of my love for him. We'll just have to wait and see what he comes up with.

I've been watching and thinking about all the childhood shows I used to watch. Like Legends of the Hidden Temple which is quiet possibly the fist obsession I ever had. I wanted to be on that show sooo bad and see exactly how they made Olmec talk! And the host wasn't all the bad looking his self :)
But the dude who hosted it, Kirk Fogg, has pretty much disappeared without a trace. I think he did a movie or something either during or after Legends, but that's all we've heard of him. If Kirk reads the internet, he should know this: There are STILL people who remember Legends which means there are still people who remember you and remember how great and warm you were to all the contestants. You really made them feel like they had one something, even if they had screwed up really badly...COME BACK TO US!
And what about Double Dare, Family Double Dare, Super Sloppy Double Dare...what ever phase of the show you came in on. Marc Summers was, and I don't think anyone will disagree here, the greatest game show host Nick has ever seen. He was charming and witty and always said those jokes that went over all the kids heads.
Did anyone know he has an OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder)? A cleaning one at that that he says he's had since he was a child. He worked on the messiest show that network TV has ever seen and he had a cleaning disorder! I think it's the curse of Nickelodeon. It seems everyone one (with the exception of a few of course) has had some kind of trouble or are never heard from again (or they end up on the panel of Figure it Out).
Anyone remember the Power Rangers...of course you do...and don't act like you don't! You know you ran around with an over sized watch yelling "It's Morphin' time!" to anyone who listened. Hell, I did it, along with the other millions and millions of kids who watched this show as religiously as I did.. Now, if you became a Power Rangers fan sometime after Adam and Rocky came in, you should stop reading now because I am talking to the TRUE Ranger fans. You remember, the FIRST five. Jason, Billy, Kimberly, Trini, and Zack...and of course later, that delicious little Tommy.
Did anyone know, around the time of 911 that the young actress who played Trini, Thuy Trang, was killed in a car accident? Hard to believe that a POWER RANGER is dead. Did anyone think that they would ever die( or graduate)? I know I didn't.

What in the hell is going on here with all of our childhood heros!? Disappearing, OCDs, dying!? Almost doesn't feel real anymore.

2004-07-30T21:30:00.000-05:00

After many many hours of debating, I have come to the conclusion...I am going to make my Metal Gear site! It will me a mini site type thing attached to Long Live the Kids (in the Hall) [Thanks Jen and Marie!]. I've already started working on it but as slow as I am adding things right now, it should be ready sometime by next year or so. Right now, I have come up with the oh so clever name: Andi's Twisted World of Metal Gear, but I know I will change it before it's published (I better). It will be complete with Character profiles, an "About Metal Gear" section for those of you who have played the game and still don't quite know what's going on, and naked photos of Solid Snake...okay, just kidding on that last one...but I will not reject naked photos of Snake if they so happened to pop up in my mailbox...

I have already began to think about a Silent Hill site too...but I'm still just thinking about that one.

2004-07-28T06:16:00.000-05:00

But who wouldn't have dreams about THAT! :)

2004-07-28T06:03:00.000-05:00

For the past few nights, I've actually been having DREAMS about friggin Solid Snake! This has to be bad.

2004-07-25T21:48:00.000-05:00

Sitting here, debating on weather or not I should start on a Metal Gear site.
Well, should I?
I barely update my KITH site and when I do, it's never much. What will I do with two more sites (I know if I start a Metal Gear site, I am going to have to start a Silent Hill one also)!

I should just go for it...
right?

2004-07-18T00:27:00.000-05:00

Nothing much going on here. Just decided to look up some info on the host from one of my favorite new shows, X-Play. It's, what else, a video game show that reviews and rates the newest games to come out so that WE, the gamers of the world, don't waste our money on poor excuses for interactive entertainment. The host, Morgan Webb and Adam Sessler are really turning out to be regular faces on my TV. I am becoming quite obsessesd with this show. As a matter of fact, I found out that they are going to be in Atlanta in June as a part of something that G4TechTv are doing...and I REALLY wanna be there...like, REALLY! Maybe they will come here...
In anycase...
For those of you with Comcast Digital Cable that haven't discovered the beautiful channel that is G4TechTV, you need to check it out! All the original G4 shows are AWESOME! And the shows that TechTv bought over when they combined, "X-Play", "The Screensavers", and "Filter" are great too! You need to check this out (ESPEICALLY if you are a serious gamer).

This is sad...I am cheap plugging for a channel that doesn't even know I exsist!

2004-07-15T21:51:00.000-05:00

Hmmm...Blogger just keeps on changin' on me...oh well, looks better than what I remember

July 9th was my birthday (which I don't know why I mention that cause the only people who read this already knew that) which makes me the big 17. I thought I would feel different...but aside from the fact that I can see an R rated movie now without someone older than me there, it's not all THAT great. I did get a great birthday card from Liz and I wrote her back (thru snail mail, people) immediately and she should be getting the letter pretty soon.

Everything lately has been totally upside down. My friend since the 7th grade, Anita just moved back to Savannah and we've been spending a lot of time together, just catching up on the two years that we lost. Nothing much has changed about her execpt for the fact that she is just a cooler person that I even remember! I'm really glad to have her back here in Savannah! She was very much missed.

I am almost done with Silent Hill 3 and am awaiting Silent Hill 4: The Room! They are already started preordering which tells me right now I am going to be selling some old CDs that I don't listen to anymore to buy this thing. I am a total SH buff along with Metal Gear who are both made by Konomi. I think for my 18th birthday, I am just going to get a tatoo on me that says : Konomi's Bitch! lol.

2004-06-19T21:57:00.000-05:00

I've been having way too much fun with this new wrestling game I got. It's not the newest one (Here's Comes the Pain) but it sure is the most fun! I am playing thru season mode with, who else, Spike Dudley...and I've been kicking ass and taking names! I currently have the Cruiserweight and am about to challenge Brock Lesnar (RIP his career) for the Intercontinental Title. This should be really challenging and fustrating.

And ladies and gentalmen, that is my life now. Video games. I knew someday it would come to this, I just didn't know how soon it would come. Even when Marie gave me a ring on Tuesday, I was playing that damn game. I paused it though long enough for us to catch up on what she'd been doing since last we chatted. Marie, if you ever think your life sucks...remember this: I've been yelling at my TV to computer generated image of Spike Dudley and many other WWE Superstars for the past week or so. Your life is GOOD :)

Speaking of the little one that we call Spike, I've been thinking about my WWE Raw experience a lot lately, and it's been making me smile a little more these days...for those of you who don't know about the "magical moment" that Spike and I shared almost a year ago now, here's the letter I wrote almost immediatly after it happened. I entiled it, "Thank You, Spike Dudley" after reading a tribute type thing he wrote about Ric Flair called "Thank You, Nature Boy":

As you all may (or may not) know, I am a huge wrestling fan. More importantly, I am a huge Spike Dudley fan. And recently at a house show in Savannah,GA, I got to see my role model in the ring, up close and personal. He really made my night (my life!) and, even though this is a KITH site, I want to make this, er, open statement to Spike...since I didn't get to meet him

Dear Spike (or maybe Matthew should go here...)

Weather or not you're aware of it, you made September 6, 2003 the greatest night and most wonderful memory I will ever have. And trust me, as I was tying my bandana and putting on my black, white, and gray fatigues, there's no way I could have predicted the night.

My seats were good (would have been better if I wouldn't have waited so long to get them) but after a while, I realized that from where I was sitting (plus the horrible lighting of the Civic Center) you weren't going to be able to see the sign I spent 3 days to perfect as much as my mortal self would allow. So, when Powerman 5000's "Drop the Bombshell" started up, I knew what I had to do. I squeezed by the other 5 or 6 people in my row (who I had already squeezed by already), and slipped into ringside so quietly, I think the guy next to me thought I teleported there...Trekie style

I held up my huge sign which read "Spike Dudley Rox" in bright red and royal blue letter. I wasn't sure if you were even going to look my direction, but I jumped and screamed so much, I guess you had no choice. You made eye contact with me, pointed me out, and gave me a thumb up. At that point, I did what any fan who had been pointed out by her favorite Superstar would do. I folded the poster over my head and giggled like a Japaneese anime school girl. When I realized the match was about to start and people were sitting, I Wonder Woman flew my ass back to my seat and cheered you from there, just like I had been practicing from my living room sofa for the past 2 and a half years. The Dudleyz were victorious against LaResistance (like I knew they would be). And you came back out (after you made sure the French flag you were carring made rendevous with Rob Conway's ass) to enjoy the victory with Bubba and D-Von. I ran back to the ringside (pissing off my row just a little bit more) to see if maybe I could get lucky once more and have you see my sign. Once again, you pointed me out and mouthed "thank you" which is the moment I will always cherish.

Okay, so that's the comedic version of it, but, no matter how I told it, the outcome is still the same. You have made a moment I thought I would never have into the greatest thing I've ever experienced. Who knew that a thumb up and a thank you would send me up to clould 99 without any signs of coming down soon? I've believed in you probably more that I've believed in myself and every bit of it was worth it.

You're amazing and nothing or no one will ever convince me different. Thanks for just being you and being such an inspiration. I would have loved to have met you but you and your bros took off in the Dudleymobile before the main event started. Maybe next time, right?

Andi

Anyway, I've been thinking about the whole event a lot lately wondering will I ever actually get to meet him? Is that the closest I will ever get to Spike? I really hope not!Before I die, I want to have a real meeting with him, just so I can say some things to him. Like, "Do you know how amazing and awesome you are?" or "Do you have any idea what your existance in the WWE means to me? And not just in the WWE, but just in general?"
Maybe one day...

The monsters are extremly ugly and annoying and can scare you badly! So, never ever let Heather wonder around without her trusty shotgun :)

2004-06-11T22:30:00.000-05:00

This game is very dark most of the game play...it's a good idea to have a flashlight which you can play without but it's not a good idea

2004-06-11T22:19:00.000-05:00

Heather climbing up a ladder

2004-06-11T22:16:00.000-05:00

I got this one from Gamespot.com...as you can tell. The lead character name is Heather who is happy go lucky one day and stepping into her own private hell the next

2004-06-11T21:49:00.000-05:00

I currently got a PS2 (yeah, I'm a HUGE gamer, I'm a chick, but I am a little behind on the times) along with Silent Hill 3...and let me tell you, if you've never been scared by those really bad scary movies like Scream, the Freddy movies, the Jason movies, the Chuckie movies, etc...you HAVE to play this and be scared shitless for the first time in your life! I played the first Silent Hill and was scared out of my mind, but I think it's just because I was kinda young...but here I am 16 almost 17 and I still refuse to play this game at night! But nevertheless, it's one of my favorite game series of all time (along with Metal Gear...I guess I am just a whore for Konami) Check out these screen shots from it...and just get a taste of what I mean.

2004-05-27T20:15:00.000-05:00

You know you've been playing the Sims/ too much when...you create a Crissy Guerrero sim!!

Been watching Celebrity Poker now for about 30 minutes...and about 2 seconds into it, you can tell Dave is NOT having fun. He's dealing with it, but thinking of a million other places he'd rather be

2004-05-23T01:32:00.000-05:00

I don't know why I am blogging so early in the morning...I really should be sleeping. I have nothing to talk about...or maybe I do...

A DYING BREED
I was searching the web and was sad to see all the KITH sites that aren't updated anymore. Some of them, ripped off the net. There truly are only a few great sites left...it's like it's a dying breed or something. I came across one who's last update happened when Scott was doing "Micky Blue Eyes".

I hope to keep my site around for a long long long long time. I mean, it's not all that popular or anything...but it's my thank you to the Kids for all they have influenced in my life. They gave me my sense of humor (just think of me with THAT kind of a sense of humor when I was 12!), my two best friends (you know who you are), and something to be devoted and committed to. Even though they may never go on tour again, I am still so obsessed with the thought of getting to meet them one day. Now, I doubt I will be walking down the street and run into Mark or be in a resturant and just magically see Scott. But, anything is possible I suppose.

2 DAYS OF SCHOOL LEFT!
I've been reeling so much about Liz and Marie visiting, I totally forgot that I only have 2 DAYS left in school before summer hits and my mom makes me get a job! I have a feeling this summer is going to be very interesting. Maybe not in a bad way...but not in a good way either. Maybe the WWE can come here again so I can cry about not getting to see Spike. Or maybe a KITH movie will come out...and then I would have a reason to go to the movie theaters.
Whatever happens, I'm excited.

MY KITHY TRIBUTE
Since I'm already typing and thinking about it, I guess here would be a good opprotunity to tell all about my KITH tribute.
Okay, this idea has been dancing around in my head for a while now and what it would consist of is this:

I would love to rent a big arena, like the Opera House in New York or the Staples Center in....itotallyforgotwherethatis, USA and hold a Tribute to the Kids! There would be five people consisting of Marie, Liz, I and two other internet people who I will not list here (even though I doubt they read this). And we would all pick a Kid, and write a good 5 minute tribute for each of them to perform on stage infront of the guest of honor and about 7500 screaming internet and non-internet KITH fans. We would also attempt to renact classic or our favorite sketches, Crissy be our Craig Northey in between scenes and whatnot. I think it would also be cool to show a video at the beginning of the tribute that showed clips from the show and fan input...something about 10 minutes or so.
That's about the whole concept of it. I'm so sure none of this could ever happen (not with me in organizing it anyway), but its always good to dream

2004-05-21T15:16:00.000-05:00

Sorry this took so long to post, but now, I bring to you details of: Kithers Gone Wild (in Savannah) 2004!

May 10th, 2004 thru May 16th, 2004 had to be one of the greatest weeks of my life. I’m really happy that Liz and Marie decided to come and spend a week with me!

As you all may or may not know, Marie, Liz and I met thru my Long Live the Kids in the Hall guest book. As a matter of fact, I think Marie was the first to ever sign that thing. I emailed them to thank them for signing it (couldn’t get that auto response thing down) and from there, a beautiful friendship began. And that my friends, was over a year ago.

Of course, we had all talked about meeting, and we knew that one day, we would, but we just didn’t know how soon it would be. I one day got the news from Marie that they were thinking about coming down here…but it was just a thought at the time. Well, I guess things happen and prayers are answered and here we are!

Monday, May 10, 2004
I am on pins and needles all day. I know this is the day that Marie and Liz are coming in, and all day, I can’t concentrate on anything! Schoolwork is just an obstacle holding back the hands on the clock now from reaching 2:30. When the bell finally does ring for school to end, I realize there is nothing left to do but wait…and wait…and wait…and wait…
At about 9:00pm, I was sure my legs were going to give out from under me if I tried to stand.
A little after 9, the phone rang. It was Marie. They were lost. But only about 3 minutes away from my house, if that long. My mom and I gave them directions and we pulled them on in. I couldn’t believe it was actually them when they first pulled up! I thought I was in a dream! There wasn’t even any screaming when they finally got everything inside…just silence. And not even an awkward silence…a silence that breathe a sigh of relief and said “Finally.”
We didn’t have too much time to talk, considering I still had to go to school the next day. But, they did break out the pictures that they had from the KITH 2000 tour, 2002’s ToD, and from Toronto Trip 2003. I looked at the pictures, listening to all the stories that went along with each of them, still trying to take everything in.
Time went by VERY fast and midnight soon hit, signaling me to go to bed. I said goodnight for the first time ever to their faces and not over AIM. I had the greatest feeling that moment as I went to get under the covers, and with that great feeling, I went to sleep.

Tuesday, May 11 2004
I only spent a half a day in school so that I could come home and talk with my very tired guest. By the time I was getting home, they were just really waking up. After everyone showered and woke up, we migrated to my “den” where we planned to talk all day until we realized that we should go out and do something. So, we went to the mall J. The only place we really went inside was this little anime place called “Hello Cutie” (because I love anime). Other than that, we walked around and talked, trying to hide our accents (hehe). When we got back, we spent the rest of the day talking, sharing KITH stories and talking about all the people we knew on the web. We also commented on how nice it was to say the name of something (oh, like Kithfan.org or the Kithblog)and have people know who we were talking about.

Wednesday, May 12 2004 (Bruce’s Birthday)
We devoted the ENTIRE day to watching the Kids in the Hall on this special occasion. We watched appearances(Canadian and American…but mostly Canadian), eps of KITH (Canadian and American), and anything else that their faces grazed, including SGND (where I showed them Mark’s famous spit moment during Joymakers) and the ToD. Bruce’s b-day was a lot of fun to celebrate…especially with other KITH fans.

Thursday, May 13, 2004
We realized that we really needed to get out and do something besides going to the mall. So, we finally decided to explore the area of my city that is most famous, downtown.
Even though I have lived her my whole life and have been downtown about 8 million times, it wasn’t until that day that I realized I was living in such a beautiful city! While Liz and Marie were snapping pictures of buildings and statues and whatnot, I was also right along with them, taking pictures like a tourist! For lunch, we went to this two story restaurant called Locos Deli and Pub. They paid for lunch since I am always broke and have no money. I changed my mind so often that I can’t remember what I actually ended up getting, but I do remember Marie having the largest potato I had ever seen, which bought up some great jokes and had us laughing just about the whole time we were in there. We had a great waiter who took a picture of all of us stuffing our faces.
After, that, we headed back and decided to play the two games Liz had bought along. “Trivial Pursuit” and “Scene It”. I’m really not sure how we got through both of them considering all the laughing we were doing at Marie’s comments, but we somehow got thru it, with Marie winning BOTH games. (I gotcha next time!)

Friday, May 14 2004
We called this day a “chill day” considering the day before, we had walked downtown and laughed the whole day. We watched “High Stakes” (with Dave Foley), more KITH (which I didn’t think was possible), and Brain Candy, with Liz’s commentary which I enjoyed a lot. You HAVE to watch BC with her, she can tell you lots and lots of things you never even thought about while watching it. Later that night, we also watched “Dick” and ordered pizza which took almost 2 hours to come, so, we got it free! My head started pounding like crazy, so I retired early to bed.

Saturday May 15, 2004
We watched “Run Ronnie Run” with David Cross, and Dave Foley and Scott Thompson making appearances. All through the movie, someone would think of something interesting or KITHY to say, and for the next hour, the movie would be on pause or stopped. Even the issue of the atmosphere on the BC set came up, which was really depressing. Finally, we gave up on trying to get through it, and decided to watch SGND again…but with commentary. We continued to talk about some serious issues that had happened on the set of BC and between CERTAIN members…but we got a kick out of making our own hella-funny commentary on the SGND commentary. I STILL say we should have had a video camera, girlsJ

Sunday May 16, 2004 (Kevin’s Birthday)
It was their last day, and no matter how happy we tried to be that it was Kevin Day, we were still reminded visit had reached it’s end. But, we did manage to talk about my big KITH tribute idea that I’ve been playing with for a few months…which I will explain in a later post. Somewhere around noon, we went outside to take some last group pictures. We hauled all their stuff to Liz’s car (which I still say I could have packed all that for just myself )and stood outside in front of the car, in that same silence that was there when they first arrived, but time, it was gloomy. Finally, I decided to let them get on their way. We waved until we were out of sight of each other, and even though I knew we could talk on the phone and talk over AIM, I had never felt so sad as I did that moment. So, to try and cheer myself up, went in the house to watch the Disney channel. And playing, was “A Bug’s Life” which made me smile.

Even to this day, I can hardly believe the events that took place, even though I type it and have pictures to prove it. The next time we see each other, I hope to be making the long trip to where they live.

Thanks guys, for all the great memories and private jokes we can all share now!

Fred Durst (yeah, Freddy D of Limp Bizkit) has a blog. I think this is the greatest idea in the history of the world. I think all the Kids should have blogs along with Andrew W.K. and Spike Dudley.

Way to go, Fred...maybe you'll start a new trend...Celebrity Blogs! oh, I LOVE IT!

2004-05-20T21:12:00.000-05:00

testing again...hey, this IS easy!!!

2004-05-20T21:09:00.000-05:00

this is a pic of me...i am just testing this Hello thing that i downloaded because it makes sending pictures easy...and believe me, there is no better word than easy!

2004-05-20T20:32:00.000-05:00

What in the blue HELL is going on here! First, Dave's show doesn't go through! THEN, his apperence on the Today show is cancelled! I have every right to go on strike against NBC!! This is crazy! What in the hell is NBC trying to do!!! What in the hell are they trying to prove!!!! WAAAAAY too pissed to blog right now!!! GRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!

2004-05-17T22:00:00.000-05:00

Oh man, I've been listening to "Giddy Up" by Craig Northeynon stop! I think because it's so short. It's only 8 songs! Or maybe this Savannah heat is getting to me.

I emailed him to tell him how awesome I thought the album was

Email 1 from him: Very flatterd and very thankful
Email 2 from him: A little annoyed, but he answered me anyway
Email 3 from him (still pending): He will tell me not to email him anymore.

That's life lol

I haven't added any writings to my site in a long time...thinking about locking myself in my room until I come up with something. I have a lot I want to say, just don't quite know how to say it. Yes, I will lock myself in my room until I come up with something.

Whenever Marie gets home, and rest from THE trip, I think the process of giving the site a lift with get going. I know nothing about HTML codes and cheated my way all the way through creating the site I have now. And because of that, I can only place certain objects in certain places...wherever Tripod wants me to put them. The Craig Northey page will look a lot better than it does now, along with the "How I Became A KITH Fan" page and every other page that's two toned.

Different look, same great taste, eh?

2004-05-15T06:15:00.000-05:00

Well, listening to Crissy Guerrero right now, courtesy of the wonderful MarieI had heard her before from the "Kevin Eating Soup" segment on SGND, but this is the first time I've heard her voice without thinking about Kevin eating soup...and that's a good thing. She has a wonderful voice! I can't get over that! I think I will copy these songs onto my comp and burn them along with some other things onto a cd (cause there are only four songs from Crissy)
Well, that's all for now. As you all may or may not know, Marie and Liz has spent the last week with me at my house all the way in Savannah, GA! They drove a very long way to be here and it still amazes me that they even would do it! I'm sure the three of us will have nice long stories to tell by later next week. Okay, that's all for now. CRISSY ROCKS!!!!!!!!
OH! and how could I forget to wish a late happy birthday to Brucio and an early one to Kev-O...incase I forget. Happy Birthday guys! From Andi!

2004-05-08T07:00:00.000-05:00

sigh...over the past few weeks, i have been watching the WWE underuse our wonderful, Spike Dudley. To you, he may just be another face on the WWE roster (or ever just another unknown name in my blog), but to me, he is a very important part of my viewing pleasure. Usually, I contain these comments at the Spike Dudley Message Board conviently located at SpikeDudley.net, but something inside me possed me to bring my anger and well, concern to my blog.
See, the WWE has NEVER been shy about firing people that they didn't have a purpose for. Remember Zack Gowen? He was the one legged miracle that had this BIG future with the WWE. Fired less than a year later. And what about Raven. I thought he was doing kinda well. He had a good little stint going on Sunday Night Heat...but, not good enough I guess cause he got fired too. And how about Gold Dust. Everyone loved his thing with the studdering and the partning up with Booker T (which by the way, I think is the next one to get walking papers), but, he also got fired.
So, what is stopping them from firing Spike? I mean, they never really did too much with him from the beginning did they? Sure, a short storyline with the Dudleyz here...a short partnership with Big Show there...but nothing solid, except for the budding romace with Molly Holly...which ended on a sour note.
Stop tourching him by making him the locker room punching bag and stop toucher us by making us watch. You're the greatest and biggest wrestling company in the world...prove it.

Andi

2004-05-03T18:57:00.000-05:00

hmmmm...it's saying that this blog isn't here...

2004-05-01T22:38:00.000-05:00

Obviously, my obsession with the Sims are over. I haven't played it in over a week. And not because I didn't have the time...just because I didn't feel like it. The game is not really boring me I guess...just not at the top of my list anymore.

The thing with me and Cory is over and I think it has made us closer...if not closer, than just as close as we were before all of this. Also, the whole war between him and Jess is over too thankfully. It had gone on way too long and only got worst when I told Jess what went on that day I came crying out of the gym. She no longer wants to rape him with a broom stick, gouge out his eyes, and paint the walls of our school with his blood...and that's always a relief

Other than that, I've been checking out music. And I have found a really very buzzworthy artist.

Liz Phair. If you own the Brain Candy soundtrack, then you know she has a song called "Six Dick Pimp" on there. If you watch VH1, then you might know that she has a poppy yet edgy song called "Why Can't I". If you haven't picked this album up yet and are still debating, GO GET IT! It's wonderful and has also recieved rave reviews from Brucio...and you wouldn't doubt Bruce now would you???

2004-04-22T20:26:00.000-05:00

I feel like everyone is avoiding me ever since my...um...situation with Cory. I can't call it a fight because nothing was really said. All I know is that I miss him like crazy and I wish whatever I did I wish I wouldn't have did. I love him and I want our friendship back. You never know how much you miss something until it's gone

2004-04-21T22:15:00.000-05:00

I have a new addiction: THE SIMS!

Now, I'm pretty sure that at least ONE person reading this can feel my pain right now. It's just something about controling the lives of other people that is so great! You get to buy furniture and get a job...it's like living the life you never had through these little animated people. And if ya know that right codes [;)] you can pretty buy anything and do anything!

That is all for now. If you are thinking about trying out the Sims, I suggest you go to the official website and see which one is right for you to try out!

That's all for now

2004-04-16T23:29:00.000-05:00

I really really really hate Tripod right now. Ever since I've gotten my new comp, it won't let me sign in to update my KITH site! I hate this! I am going to move the site with the help of the beautiful, the talented, and always funny Marie, once again, to assist me.

Speaking of Marie, she called me yesterday and we talked for about 3 hours(didnt' seem that long, did it?). She had me laughing the whole time...so much, I woke up my mom, who was actually cool about it. I can't remember the last time I've spent that much time on the phone actually talking (meaning, no long silences or filler questions. [Like, "What did you do last night, or "What did you plan for tomorrow?"]) Whenever she calls she's always fresh and funny and the nicest person in the world.

Nothing much has been going on...exept for the fact that I went out to my friend Jessica's house and spent a few days out in the boonies with her. It wasn't all that bad. We went hiking to find this long lost creek that I thought we'd never find, we sprayed our self down with back yard hoses, and last but not least, I feel and screwed up not one but both of my legs! I am never going back there again.Well, I say that now, but who knows what the summer brings :)

To end this, I guess I'll say something totally off key. I don't want to be in love. Love sucks and I've grown too lazy to chase behind it anymore. If anyone wants me, I'll be watching wrestling and eating Cheese Doodles.

Andi

2004-04-05T22:01:00.000-05:00

Hi people out there (who still read this)

Good news for all: I have a new computer!
Bad news: For a while, I forgot my password at blogger.com
Good news: I know what it is now! :)

This computer is that I have now is kickass! I can download music and burn CDs (for the first time ever!) and I have working sound! The only glitch with it is that I don't think it knows how to shut down. When I chose the shut down button from the "Shut Down" menu, it restarts instead! Anyone got a cure for this?

I hope, along with this, I will be able to update my site more...hopefully.

Everything is going nice (for once in my life). Talked to Marie and Liz (I think all in the same week too) and they are thinking about visiting me! It would be great if they did...but I think this still is in the planning stage. I really do hope it happens though

Well, that's all for now...mom's a bitchy like usual to get off the comp...Later Days!

2004-03-10T12:22:00.000-05:00

Hello to all who has missed me! It's been a crazy month so I haven't had too much time to update and all. For one, we are finally moved! I love where we are living now

Marie finally got thru to me last night while I was talking to Mike. We talked for about an hour and a half or so. I told he about the wrestling event (which was hella fun by the way) and we talked about the Kids in the Hall...big surprise there.
By the way, Mariethe music I recondmend is as follows:
Kittie- if you are pissed off at the world...very handy
Andrew W.K.- if you are pissed off at the world, but want to party!
Maroon 5- because they are just a kickass band!
Fozzy- wrestler Chris Jericho's band...really good band at that.

Anyone else out there with Kids in the Hall sites, has the traffic to your site been slow or is it just mine?

Alright, well that's all for me. I'll try and write in this thing more often

2004-02-22T19:52:00.000-05:00

Hello all

Busy busy week...but a very satifying one too. First of all, the got the number of a guy that I really liked (he's mentioned earlier in the blog) and we talked twice between Fri and Sun. HE actually called me which shocked the hell out of me! Guys actually use phones? Apparently so. We talked for an hour and 17 mins!

We've finally started moving..and it's just as stressful as I thought it would be. My mom is moving things in the car first before paying someone to move the rest. Her theory: "The less the movers have to take, the less they charge"

WWE Event Countdown: 8 (or nine depending on how you count)
Signs done for WWE Event: 0 (or 0 depending on how you count)

This week's "Person I Haven't Thought About in a LOOOONG Time" Tribute goes to

JASON DAVID FRANK! (But you know him as Tommy Oliver from the Power Rangers!)

According to his official fan club, he's in California teaching at a Dojo called " The Rising Sun" (or something like that) I used to have a HUGE thing for him back in the day. And even with all his hair chopped off, he still looks pretty hot. He's actually co-staring in the 1300th spin off of the Power Rangers with him as Dr. Oliver coaching these three brats on how to save the world and whatnot. The series itself is actually okay.

Okay, well, that's all for now.

2004-02-15T11:58:00.000-05:00

Talking with DJs from your local radio station is fun!I so want to be a DJ when I turn 18. I don't think I have the voice for radio but I would like to try it anyway. I know just about every song on the radio (that's rock anyway)...it could be a lot of fun!

My wrestling event is getting closer and closer and I have yet to pick up one pencil or marker to work on my signs. I think I am only going to make 1 or 2...but I still need to get started. Last year when they came I was all over what I had to do! I made a mini schedual and all...I have become such a disorganized person :(

Okay, well off to screw with my blog and add more links. I've been meaning to do this for a while but I REALLY didn't want to screw up my blog and have to go to Marie with something that sounded like "You know all that hard work you put into my blog? Well, I just fucked all up with one click of the mouse!"

Wish me luck
