I'm blogging, a little more frequently over at tumblr these days. So if for some reason you want more of what you've seen here, check out http://falsestartjunkyard.tumblr.com

our hearts beat for the diehards

"The truth of the matter is that a lot of people say that Fall Out Boy or something, whatever saved their life or made their life easier and we just want to say that you guys being there and letting us be on the stage like this has made our lives easier and saved our lives so thank you guys very much."

there's a time to pray and there's a time to fight

Ludo premiere "Save Our City" (Altpress.com Exclusive) from Alternative Press on Vimeo.

I still get goosebumps every time I listen to this song. This video is even better than what I had been imagining all this time.

i couldn't have asked for a better weekend

3 days. 7 states. Roughly 17 hours in a car.
2 plane rides, 5 and a half hours.
Hardly any sleep.

A countless number of hugs. Smiling so hard my face hurt.
Laughing so hard we scared the people around us.



Worth every minute.



Thank you for making my life better.

Places I never thought I'd miss: St. Paul's Church in Levittown.

Speaking of people I miss: these dudes.

If you're not listening to to Robots & Racecars yet, why the hell not? I've only been talking about how great they are for like, the past year.

you came along because i love your face

I love this girl and her silly face. I also miss her bunches. Why must my friends live spread out across the country?

In other news, I survived my first day of classes. This wouldn't be worth noting if not for the fact that I have ten hours of class on Thursday. Up early, home late, oh yeah. Fun times.

Being downtown does have it's perks though, the city is really quite beautiful at night.

where i've been, where i am

Taken this past June at Colonial Park. It's very pretty there, if you ever happen to be in Somerset in the spring/summer, you should check it out.

Classes started today. At 9am. I had to get up a good hour earlier than that to make it here on time. I am not a morning person, my friends. This is going to take some getting used to. On the plus side, I do enjoy having the time on the train to zone out, relax and you know, actually wake up.

Also, on the plus side, I think I am going to enjoy my sculpture class.

A quote from my teacher: "I work with video. I like puppies."

So there's that.

There's a tiny little bug on the screen on my laptop and I don't have the heart to smush him or flick him away. He's not bothering any one, just enjoying the nice day. Like me.

used to waste my time dreaming of being alive

Okay, so I lied. This isn't recent at all. I took this on an unseasonably warm day this past March while I driving the backroads of rural PA.

I still like it, months later. So here you go.

A few belated photos from when I saw Lucas Carpenter and Mark Rose at Milkboy Coffee in Ardmore.









More recent photos and reviews coming soon! I am finally in possession of the shiny new macbook pro I got for school. ♥

this is a song for the ladies

I seem to keep ending up places where Brendon Urie is doing ridiculous acoustic covers. It's pretty awesome, actually.


This post brought to you by the free wifi in my awesome hotel, where I currently have all of the pillows in the world.

my heart eyes, let me show you them

it will be alright

Came across this while packing.



Chicago tomorrow. And for the next two years.

hold on to that feeling

This happened. Somehow, I was there. I don't even know. My life is weird.

he shaved the faces of gentlemen

Passed this on the way home from Wildwood. Not only an A+ name choice, but even more hilariously, the apartment above the shop is for rent.

this and various other assorted ridiculousness

How I spent my Saturday night.

Making skittles vodka is pretty time consuming (and I maybe watched a lot while other people did all the heavy lifting) but the pay off is pretty excellent.

I will bring you back to life

TOUR DATES

Nine tour dates, Broken Bride in it's entirety. My excitement cannot actually be properly conveyed via text. All of the shows I would want to go to are on days that I can actually go.

IT'S LIKE THEY KNEW AND WANTED TO MAKE ME HAPPY. :D
