So now i like to pretend that i didnt see him close up

so, last night was awesome! the roommate and i were having a quite tranquil dinner when i remember that Noise Ratchet was going to be playing at the Key Club in Hollywood at 8:30 for FREE. soo, after much contemplation we decided to go (i missed class). we finished up dinner (approx 6:10), went online to look for directions and went on our way. we had to stop at Citrus C College to search for the roommates' bf who had class. we never found him. we looked in every classroom on three floors of two buildings. we even started just calling out his name in the hallways in hope that he would hear us and step out of his class. oh well. so at about 7:15 we were definitely on our way to hollywood. there was no traffic until we got till about 5 miles before our exit. then, it took a bit of searching and asking random people on the streets so that we could find this so called Key Club. dont forget that it was also pouring by this time. anyways, we finally go there at 9. we parked in the parking lot and went through the short cut (alley) ...we were running becuase we didnt want to get wet. so we got to the door, soaked and cold. we just went right in. i think they were supposed to card us becuase they were serving drinks inside..oh well...we were cold, we didnt care. and the guy at the door was even talking to us as we walked in (he's nice..we talked to him on many occasions as the night went on). so, to my surprise as i entered it was nothing how i expected it to be. there wasnt the millions of people that i thought there was going to be...it was so cute and small. soo, we go past the many people that were just chillin by the door and head towards the front. then i had to pee..so the roommate and i started asking around for the bathroom and we had to go downstairs...it was scary because right when you turned the hallway there was a creepy statue (like the Van Helsing attraction at Disneyland) and so i decided to just be a man and hold it in. so we went back to the front.
so we met this totally awesome girl at the show...we kinda just started talking to eachother. she went to college in Florida but lives in Victorville..she books bands at certain venues. we liked her a lot. man, i thought i had energy! we later found out that her name was Pauline becuase the guys from Limbeck wrote a song about her and how her dad fixed their '91 honda. they dedicated it to her before they sang it. umm, what else. oh, so i couldnt hold it any longer and i decided that HAD to go pee or else i wouldnt be able to fully enjoy the greatness that is Noise Ratchet. so the roommate and i started towards the lavatory (hehe, i said lavatory). anyways, so on our way through the creepy hallway i saw one of the guys from Noise Ratchet and i said " this is so scary!" and he was like "yeah!" and then i was like "i saw you guys on saturday" and he was like "really?" and i was like "yeah, you guys are awesome" and then he shook my hand and said "thanks i really appreciate it" then he said his name but i forgot. hehehe. then we went to the bathroom (it was one of those super cool ones that have like hair products at your disposal and lotion and other girly things) . i didnt use them though..i was too excited to get out and go find the hottie that plays the drums for NR. and i saw him...unfortunately he is that type of boy that from afar he is the hottest little thing with two legs that you've ever seen, but up close..not so much. so now i like to pretend that i didnt see him close up. anyways, so we went back up and the Limbeck came on. i had seen them once before when i saw Motion City Soundtrack this summer and they were cool. they wore cowboy clothes (flannel shirts). and they totally made fans out of us after they played! they were super-de-duper! but we didnt want to take a chance and lose our spot so we stayed because noise ratchet was next. then The Greatness of noise ratchet began and it was beautiful. it's sad that the wont be having any more shows for a while...but it guess it's ok becuase i saw them TWICE in one week!!! yup. anyways, sooo after they played i saw these girls talking to one of the boys from the band and he gave her his pick...so i was like "me too" (in my head) and so i asked one of the boys if i could have a drum stick (yes, i know..what a gropie..but i dont care!). so the studmuffin of a drum player came over and gave me his stick. and i was like "thanks" and i was like "i saw you guys on saturday"<--phrase of the night..but hey..it gets the boys. and he was like "awesome,thanks for comming" and then he shook my hand and i was like "oh baby" (in my head) and then i got this image of some cartoon where a boy gets touched by the girl the he likes and he decides never to wash his hands again..so in the next scene of the cartoon his hands are all moldy and green, way funny. but i decided not to take that same path and wash my hands no matter how hot he is.(sigh). and then he gave me his drum stick!!!..it was chipped and everything! i didnt know the chipped. and so by now i am the happiest thing you ever did see. after this we went downstairs again to go buy the Limbeck cd but they were 10 and i only had 5. so we decided that we'd go out to the car later and get more money. so we hung out for a bit. then i saw these group of boys that looked familiar and we had noticed that they had been looking at us throughout the whole night and then we realized that the boys had been one of the bands that played with Noise Ratchet on saturday. and so i was like "you guys played with Noise Ratchet on saturday..you were good" and then he shook our hands and introduced himself as ...oh crap i forgot...and then he gave us a cd of his band (Nevada Sky) and we went on our way. THEN we left for the car.it was now 12. it wasnt raining anymore but the police had closed off the street in front of the venue so we wouldnt be able to get the Limbeck cd..oh well, i'll buy it online later. then we found our way back onto the freeway (by this time it had started raining again) so we drove like 60 all the way back to school. we got home a little past 1 and we had to run to the building becuase it was pouring! then we were too excited/hyper to sleep so it took us forever to get to sleep. then we started talking about how we wanted to go to Spain next year and we got even more excited. this year is getting better and better.! then i'm going to go see some cute boys on friday in corona. horray for cute boys! and that completes my blog for today.
p.s.
i've decided to start making my blog more personal. so it's pretty much a journal now. i'm sorry if i bore you.
