"we're nothing short of invincible."-"reinventing your exit."

today is a sad day. it's sadder than if the band were to actually break up. aaron gillespie left underoath. the one band, besides bayside, that i've listened to and loved from the day they started. aaron was the last original member of UO and he's been one of my favorite people for just as long. his spiritual and humanitarian efforts are amazing. i got involved with twloha because of him. i've been to 13 underoath shows and seen them at every warped tour they've played (5). sadly i have only met him once, for 2 seconds, on accident. wow, i make it sound like he died or something. it feels like something died because while i know he will do incredible things with the almost and whatever else musical he will do, i don't think UO will ever be as good as they are with him. i wonder what will happen. after the news broke everywhere he posted in his blog saying, "its all good. times change, roll with the hurricane." i loved you for the last 11 years. thank you for all of it.

anyway..today was a great way to end break. woke up, showered, rushed and got to purchase. i thought mike was gunna leave when i went to class but he ended up staying until 7:30. really wish he didn't have to leave but 4 days is absolutely no wait. this week i realized how lucky i am to have him. i also realized that i don't have to try so hard on looking perfect or acting appropriately. every day, i hope i remember what he said to me: "i love when you can wake up, put your hair up and just go. you would look beautiful no matter what you do." love him forever.

oh, and my senior project pictures came in the mail today. SO GLAD THAT'S DONE WITH. excited to look at it thursday or friday, whenever i'm able to leave. mmmm k, need to do work. xo.
