the show

Tue, 18 Jan 2005 22:12:46 GMT

wow. so the show went so well. except for the parts where i..completely forgot lyrics, or sang the wrong verse..or better yet, sang the same verse 4 times. oh well, it was fun as anything and that's what i love doing so, all is good. i hope everyone liked the show. For me, it was really awesome seeing all my friends there who supported MIDDLECOAST. Thanks to all of you, who were singing the songs and just having a good ol' time. if you wish to comment about the show, go for it =)

A little poem from Pennsylvania

Sun, 19 Dec 2004 07:21:30 GMT

I asked my good friend to write me a poem on my past experience, with what I had and do not have anymore. what's said, is done. thank you*

I look to my fingers to write out some wisdom,
I look up above to try and read the Kingdom,
I look all around, in and out, even crawl through to see,
But all I can find is there are no answers for me.

Hesitant at first to admit my feelings inside,
But as time went on, I could no longer hide.
I fell, and fell hard, and had not one regret,
When my heart found love, my mind was set.

You, you were wonderful, too good to be true,
That saying is valid, for I no longer have you.
You came and went, leaving me alone
And now I'm recovering in the place from which I was thrown

I know more now than when first I came,
What I know now is my feelings are not the same.
So mixed up and jumbled; never making sense
The only thing clear is life is no white picket fence.

I miss falling into you, knowing that you're there,
But now I know that's with somebody else you share.
I won't ask questions because silence will follow,
But I just want to know how much longer my heart will be hollow.

"If a square peg doesn’t fit a round hole, neither the peg nor the hole is to blame. Between two people, the question "whose fault is it?" is the friend of argumentation and the destroyer of growth-oriented communication. Assigning blame involves listening to criticize and responding to defend, speaking to lower the other person rather than speaking to build each up. Relational progress is impossible as long as blame is the focus because blame and progress are enemies. In our litigation-hungry society we must take care that focusing on fault - which is proper for the courtroom - doesn’t carry over into interpersonal relationships. The heart of loving communication is listening to understand."

shitty weekend..

Fri, 10 Dec 2004 20:56:33 GMT

great, so im grounded again. first time in 2 weeks and all my plans are ruined, wth everything. no band practice, no going shopping...and godddd, no seeing kati. which sucks more than anything, we haven't even hungout yet, and im so pissed off. pissed off may not be the word, im not mad at her, im mad at myself for acting like this..acting so immature that my fucking grades suck so much, which then results in me not hanging out with..someone i like. - I love it...i go play drums downstairs, im all in a happy/tired mood, getting ready to make plans...then my dad comes home, walks in the house, comes in the kitchen and says, "your grounded this weekend", and shows me the email my teacher sent me. who would like someone like me, someone who just..loves saying hi to people, and hugging people, rather than, loving their grades, and caring about them. if i truly cared about my grades, i wouldn't be so lazy. i just have to..do it. but its so hard, when someone is on your mind, like 24/NINE. and no, its not one of those things where, oh, maybe if you dont like them anymore, they wont be on your mind..your focus will be on grades. no, my focus hasn't been on grades, since the first grade..when i actually WANTED to learn the abc's. after that...addition? psh, hell no.

It's one of those things, you can't control
your feelings, your heart.
every now and then, they come and go..
these days?
they are focused on someone, that makes me want to go to school.
makes me want to go to school, everyday.
Noone can find out what its like, except if your that person
and im telling you how i feel, about everything.
about you
about me
about..us
but when it all comes down, i just want to be happy, and with that..
comes a smile from someone new, someone that is special..
and someone, that smiles at that person
with a thousand different thoughts going through his head.
a thousand different thoughts
all positive
all about her.

I bought a doughnut and they gave me a receipt for the doughtnut... I don't need a receipt for the doughnut. I give you money and you give me the doughnut, end of transaction. We don't need to bring ink and paper into this. I can't imagine a scenario that I would have to prove that I bought a doughnut. To some skeptical friend, Don't even act like I didn't buy a doughnut, I've got the documentation right here... It's in my file at home. ...Under "D".

It's very dangerous to wave to people you don't know because what if they don't have hands? They'll think you're cocky.

I wrote a letter to my dad - I wrote, "I really enjoy being here," but I accidentally wrote rarely instead of really. But I still wanted to use it so i crossed it out and wrote, "I rarely drive steamboats, dad - there's a lot of shit you don't know about me. Quit trying to act like I'm a steamboat operator." This letter took a harsh turn right away...

I was at this casino minding my own business, and this guy came up to me and said, "You're gonna have to move, you're blocking a fire exit." As though if there was a fire, I wasn't gonna run. If you're flammible and have legs, you are never blocking a fire exit.

I like cinnimon rolls, but I don't always have time to make a pan. That's why I wish they would sell cinnimon roll incense. After all I'd rather light a stick and have my roommate wake up with false hopes.

My friend said to me, "You know what I like? Mashed potatoes." I was like, "Dude, you have to give me time to guess. If you're going to quiz me you have to insert a pause."

An escalator can never break. It can only become stairs. You would never see an "Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order" sign, just "Escalator Temporarily Stairs. Sorry for the convenience."

I think foosball is a combination of soccer and shishkabobs.

I had a bag of fritos, they were texas grilled fritos. These fritos had grill marks on them. They remind me of something, when we used to fire up the barbeque and throw down some fritos. I can still see my dad with the apron on, better flip that frito, dad, you know how I like mine.

I hate flossing, I wish I just had one long curvy tooth.

On a traffic light yellow means yield, and green means go. On a banana, it's just the opposite, yellow means go ahead, green means stop, and red means, where'd you get that banana?

I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. There's a large out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside.

at the end of the letter I like to write "P.S. - this is what part of the alphabet would look like if Q and R were eliminated.

A New Feeling

Thu, 25 Nov 2004 01:14:05 GMT

I love the feeling I get when i meet someone new.
She smiles at me with the slightest smerk
and my stomach, right away, fills up with butterflies.
I dont know what does it.
Is it the hair?
Is it the smile?
Is it the look she gives you when you make a joke?
The questions are endless.

When growing up, you always seem to find little motivations
to make your day, that much better.
Mine?
A simple smile can do it, can make my day.
just by that
school is worth going to.

okay okay, im backkkk

Wed, 10 Nov 2004 23:21:43 GMT

yoyoyoyoyooooooo, yeah so i haven't updated a real entry in a while but oh well. that's how these things. some things have happened to me, so..why not share them. first off...im gonna FINISH THE STORY IN THE MALL. alright here it is....

basically, what happened is..the naked guy was from a circus and he got lost, cause he's blind...and then was doing a (blind) act with bowling balls, and he hit the window of the store next to pacsun, and blew the window out, that was big crash. the two girls i mentioned? yeah..they were his kids. they are apart of the act also..but they were shopping in the store, next to pacsun..and i guess they were just looking how stupid he was on the ground. OK, so in hottopic? WhOsE hAnD wAs It On My ShOuLdEr?????......yeah, it was my dad's actually....i hallucinated in the store because i smelled auntie anne's pretzels and i love that stuff so much, i went into my own little fantasy world, and the loud beep i heard? yeah..that was the sound of the pretzels going off, when they were ready. in my hallucination, i began to think of the sound of the pretzel machine and the smell..and i got confused. OK, so the blood on the shirt? yeah..it was from my forehead when i went on the ground, cause..as i was hallucinating ,i hit my head..without knowing it..it splattered on the shirt and, since, i have shortterm memory, me thinking "what the hell was the blood there for?"..was my short-term kicking in. yeahhhhhhh....so that was the big story.

anyways, i love i become friends with people, and we get really really close, then some feelings change, and im kicked in the dirt every single day now. every. single. day. feels realll great. yeah. jafrnfrug

what else..oh yeah, nicole zimmer is my bested friend. end of story.

i <3 Allison, Dana, Alexander. yyep.

this is what im listening to right now. this shit is the best.

BACK TO MY STORY....

Fri, 05 Nov 2004 05:19:30 GMT

OKAY, story time.........

alright, so back to my story of being 'continued'. As i left off, the little girl said...."daddy, why is that man naked?". What happens next is, as my father and i are walking foreward to see the catastrophe that just occured,...is the security guard runs over, and then i see two little girls come out of a store that have this slutty looking clothes on, but..the toddlers have had to have been like..7 or 8 years of age. My father turned me and stated that this is the wierdest and most amazing thing he's ever seen. I look at him in disbelief..stare him down, and go 'ummm, excuse me? you call THIS amazing? dad, just look at what happened here, take a look". The thing is, my dad didn't really care about the naked guy or the girls. He was more worried about the security guard and what he was going to DO to the naked man starring at the girls with slutty clothes on who were 7 or 8. The security guard was tall, black and he knew what he was doing because he had on one of those cool, cop belts..with the full setup of course. the handcuffs, the gun, the mace, and the knight stick. totally awesome. by the way, the guys uniform looked really good on him, anyways, back on track - so the security guard finally calls for backup on his shoulder radio and after about 10 min, as about a group of 50 of us stare at what happened just then, 4 more security guards come to the 'scene of the accident'. Noone really knew why there was a naked man on the ground with 2 little girls beside him who were arond 8 or 9. I look down at my watch and it says 11:43am. I look up and tell my dad that i forgot to get my tshirt i wanted at Hot Topic. well, i couldn't persuade my dad to come with me and get it, so he stays there with watches closely to see whats happening with the man who is naked and the little girls who were around 8 or 9. As i walk into Hot Topic, i notice that there are no clerks at the register...no person at the front of the store greeting you..or not even a customer in the store shopping, like i was about to do. I stood there for a few minutes. waited. ..and then i waited some more. .then i thought...i thought about what's happening right now. something just happened with a naked guy and little 'slutty' girls who are around 8 or 9 and a popular store with noone in it. it was so empty, a damn 'rooms for rent' sign should have been posted up in front. anyways, i gaze around the store looking for the tshirt i wanted to get. it wasn't there. i told the cashier to hold my tshirt behind the desk. i didn't see it on the walls, nor in a pile of unfolded clothes...which usually means, they were clothes that people tried on, but didn't like. nope, not there either. all of a sudden..the most high pitched noise came present to my ear and i fell to the ground, trying to make the peircing sound go away. it didn't go away. the sound gets louder and louder...and i try to hide behind the cashiers desk, maybe the sound would travel over the desk or something right? it didn't and i was scared something was happening that wasn't supposed to. much to my surprise, i see my tshirt, shoved in the corner. i go to grab it..and right as i grab it? a strong force belted me on the shoulder. it was someone's hand it felt like. someone with a strong grip..i had no idea who or what, it was, but it was strong. At that point in time, i had no idea, whatsoever, was going on. All i had in my mind right then, was...there was a loud bang, a naked man is outside a store with two slutty looking girls next to him who are around 8 or 9 and im in a store underneath a cashier's desk trying to escape this piercing sound, while finding my tshirt and having this strong hand grab my shoulder. ...the question is, what was the high piercing sound and who grabbed my shoulder?.................UNTIL NEXT TIME, this is...stories with jeff dimarco.

okay, my lungs are officially destroyed. i was spray painting this logo on a tshirt and i guess you're supposed to wear a mask or something? but i wasn't and now my lungs are filled with gold and white spray paint plus..roof rain, which was pretty good. how you go about getting roof rain is...find a corner of your house that is pretty low (or find a high one for experienced roof-rain drinkers) and tilt your head up to where your nose is in alignment with the drop coming down from the roof. now, focus on one raindrop at a time...locate, stick your tounge out, and BAM!..your a pro. the reason for the whole tounge out is because member when they had commercials on t.v. where the dasani water drips from the bottle, and when it splashes on the ground, little people pop up and are doing a sport or something, as if..dasani water makes everyone a star or something. but anyways, i just wish little people would go jumping on MY tounge so i can then say, literally...'there's a party in my mouth'...i dont know, i just went off on something, but whatever. my thought patterns are really..different from others, but hey, you gotta live a little.

SO anyways, i went to the mall today with my dad and we had to get a passport thinger-majigy for when we go on our trip, whenever that is..and we also got some lunch/bought a sweatshirt at pacsun. best ever. i feel so..new buying new clothes. err..maybe its because they ARE new clothes, but i feel like A MAN!..no, i dont know..whatever. but as were eating my father and i were having an intellegent conversation contemplating life and all its insecurities with the correct ergonomical breathing patterns so we dont choke on our food.....wow, anways...so we're eating/talking, and we hear this loud crash/boom type thong. ..*thing. -we look back and we see like kids running away and stuff and im like..uhh what the hell is going on. and im trying to see what happened becuase you got these little kids running...and nobody knows what the fuck is going on. I get u (wow, my ear just popped...off topic, anyways) i get up and i see a security guard running to some store down the way. I then shove all the fries in my mouth, grab the quickly, quickly tell my dad to throw out the tray and we power-walked to where we saw what happened. my eyes widened so much, my dad was speechless..and some little girl next to me said ....... "daddy...why is that man naked?"..........to be continued: until next time - this is the stories of jeff dimarco.

Wed, 03 Nov 2004 21:27:35 GMT

Alright everyone...

BATTLE OF THE BANDS, THIS FRIDAY, 7pm...if you wanna see me play? go. haha, its gonna kick so much ass. so anyways, today was like..really strange. I'm Photography and the whole day has gone by SO fast, just cause my mind thinks its friday or something? yeah i guess...so anyways, i'm in photography and i put on my headphones; look at the clock and it says 11:15, then i start listening to music, which seems like 4 hours cause i listened to all 3 cd's i had in my backpack. yeah, you think so right? definately not...i go look up at the clock and its fucking 11:35. and im like... "uhhh, mr. waas? is the clock wrong or something? im so confused"..he's like, 'uh, i believe its 11:35 jeff, what planet are you on, bud?"...first off, what teacher calls a student, 'bud' (or wait..i guess if they were best friends or something, but that'd be wierd)..ok, so that was off topic. JESUS, ok...godd, it took so long for the period to end. so everyone does this...what the do is, try and go to the bathroom? and they're thinking like **hmm if i walk to the bathroom, then around A-Hall then swing down B-hall, back to class, it will cut like 10 min**...yeah, fat chance missy. it took soooo long for the period to end, plus..i didn't have any pictures to edit in the class, so i kinda just typed my name in there and put certain effects on it and stuff. rather boring, but i was listening to the set-list of what were going to play on friday, rock that. so yeah...

another thing is, i wanna thank ms. allison ghegan? cause she kinda like..got me the livejournal. bff <-- hahaha that's another thing, why the hell do people do that crap with "bff", "lol", "ttyl", "brb", "g2g"...man, i hate that. i got out of that stage, when last year on my english-final essay i handed in. it says something on the realm of, "..and it seems like the main character was 2 depressed to talk about his emotions at the time..." sweet jeff, great job. yeah, my teacher circled it, in his like..aqua pen and wrote in size 24857 font, "STOP USING INSTANT MESSENGER!" freakin' like -20 off for just that, considering he said, spelling counts the most. awesome job, jeff. juuust great.

i smell like gasoline................ok, that was wierd..but i do? haha i was blowing leaves outside with my dad's gigantic backpack blower. damn that thing has some power, it like blows me back. you can probably use the air that comes from that to shoot a music video, with someone wearing a button down shirt so it flies all around him..yeah, i was thinking about that, kinda wierd..but my mind travels to the weirdest/best places when there is loud music around me. so, invite me in your room, blast music..and you got yourself a party. not only in the actual room, but my pants too...ok wow. i gotta mow the lawn now. sweet deal.

Umm, hey. I dont really know how this is gonna be, becaue evidently, last time i had this..my life got ruined within a split second, but we won't go there. So yeah, journal's are cool i guess, i dont know. I think this is supposed to be a certain way for people to see what im thinking or how my life is doing, which is kinda funny because i guess if kids aren't that popular have one of these? they may feel a little bit better, because people respond in their entries. haha anyways, so yeah..this is gonna be rather boring, but...usually, i'll put a quote up or even lyrics or something, or just put a statement up which i think is necessary for the moment. some inspirational words, why not hahah not that you'll go by them, but whatever..it gives me hope or something. ok, so yeah...time for me to be friends with other live journal-ees. _Jeffrey "the closer i get to feeling, the further that im feeling from alright, the more i step into the sun, the more i step out of the light" -something corporate
