Warped Tour Presale on March 26th!!!!

What I did this summer...

    Wow I haven't written in here since July 22.  Every time I say I'm going start writing in here I never do, haha.  Well I start school in the morning.  Its my senior year of college, wow I feel old, haha.  I haven't really done anything all summer.  I went to Warped Tour in July.  I was supposed to go see Blink-182, Weezer, taking Back Sunday and Chester French this past Saturday in Hartford, CT.  But didn't go.  I really wanted to got to show since late May.  Two weeks ago I just said fuck it (literally I was alone in my room and I actually said out loud, "Oh fuck it") and bid on and won two tickets to go to the show on eBay.  But I had no one to go with me and thus I started to freak out.  One of my old friends said he might, and then he didn't give me an answer.  I called him last Wednesday because I was starting to worry, three days before the show, and he said his grandmother was in the hospital and he couldn't go.  I freaked out.  I couldn't think of anyone else to go with me and if I wanted to see them on eBay I only had less than three days to sell and ship them.  Then at like 7:30 pm I said screw it and put them on eBay.  I was relived after 20 minutes one person messaged me saying they might want them and then another messaged me and said if I added a Buy-It-Now they would pay $75, including shipping.  I added a Buy-It-Now and sold them.  But I still really wish I could have gone.  I have been doing whatever I can think of to make money.  I sold I shit load of stuff on eBay this summer.  I listed 200 items and made more than $748.28.  That's a lot.  I started writing articles on the articles on eHow.com.  the site is full of How-To articles.  You write articles on the sites and they pay you for the views your article gets.  I wrote 14 articles on the site.  I written anymore though because the site pissed me off.  They were having problems and I sent them three messages over three weeks and the over responded to the second two, which annoyed me.  Then I started thinking about how I bet this site probably generates tens of thousands of dollars in ad revue every month.  They can more than afford to hire a few more people to work at the site and then it won't have issues.  And when they did answer my messages their answers were really crappy.  Since I started writing these articles, my 14 articles have a combined 1123 views and according to eHow I have made zero dollars off of my articles.  They are trying to tell me 1123 views equals zero dollars.  How?  I bet they made money off of ad revue of my 1123 views.  (You can read my eHow articles by clicking here).  I also had a yard sale in June to make money, or maybe it was May.  I sold stuff at the Flea market twice this summer.  I have been getting stuff and bringing to this thift store in Leominster called Cutiques, I bring stuff then and when my stuff sells they give me a check.  My mom also discovered this place in Holden where everything is free.  She got me a whole bunch of cross stitch patterns there and I sold them for between $2.5 and $20 each. 
    When upgraded to Digital Cable in mid-July and ever since I have been watching a lot of movies.  I literally have watched about 50 movies since May.  That a lot for me.  And most of them were really good.  (You can read reviews of all the movies on the Flixter application on Facebook).  I also became addicted to the show Weeds.  I bough the first two seasons at a yard sale for $2 each and I LOVED the show.  I watched the first two seasons in like three days.  I then had to go buy season three because the cliffhanger at the end of season drove me crazy.  Then I had to go buy season four.  With each season I liked the show more.  When I finished watching season four I started re-watching the DVDs.  Then when I finished watching season four I freaked because season five is on TV now and wouldn't go on sale until June of next year, I checked Amazon.  I really wish we got Showtime so I could watch the new season, but Showtime is an extra $10 a month and if I wait I can buy all of season five for like $20 next year.  Last week I was at my great-aunt's house and she gets Showtime and has On Demand so I was able to watch the first one and a half episodes of season five.  I also four books since the beginning of May.  That is a lot of books for me.  I usually read like maybe 2 books a year. You can see a list of all the movies I watched and books I read by clicking here.

Warped was fun and Johnny was interesting

    Wow last post was one month ago.  In my last couple posts I said I would start posting more and I haven't in a month haha.  Well the past month has been ok.  I went to Warped tour last Sunday 7/12 in Hartford, CT.  It was really fun even though for about a hour and a half at Warped I felt like crap, I think the sun was getting to me.  I say some kick-ass bands at Warped.  In the couple days before Warped I was thinking about it and I was a little scared on whether or not I would actually have fun, there were only a couple of bands I really wanted to see and I was going with people whom I didn't really know that well including one girl I'd never even met.  But I actually had a lot of fun.  The people I went with were fun and the girl I'd never even met was actually pretty cool.  We had a whole crap load of fun and after Warped we went to the Denny's-All-Nighter-After-Party, which pretty much was nothing like I expected.  But we had fun at Denny's even though it took us literally and hour and half to get our food.  We met these really cool two girls at the table next to us and we were talking to them off and on until they left. 
    Then I really didn't do much last week. 
    Over the weekend my family went to upstate Vermont to visit and old family friend.  We were going to see my dad's old friend from college, Johnny,  whom we hadn't seen in like ten years.  It was kind of interesting listening to him talk about my dad's college days.  I learned some interesting stuff, some I might not have wanted to know, haha.  He was cool but I he lives literally about 4 miles from the Candaian border in Swanton, VT and there is literally nothing up there. 
    I have been trying to find a job but no one is hiring I've been selling crap on eBay to try to make money.  Since the end of May I've listed 87 items and made about $258 on eBay and I got a crap load more stuff to put on.  I got my college bill for the fall in the mail over the weekend and I'm gonna need a hell of a lot more than that. 
    Well that's about it for now.  My cousins baby shower is this Saturday, I might write about that after Saturday.
