My boyfriend and I might not end up getting a house once we get married since we’re going to remain child free and that just seems like a lot of upkeep for 2 people.

We’ll see though.

I found a band who’s willing to try me out so I’ll possibly be on tour next year. I’m beyond stoked because this is all I’ve ever wanted.

Wish me luck!

This fell through. They decided to take someone else out with them :(

Tomorrow I’m going to LA to be in Fall Out Boy’s new video.

Wish me luck!

And I need help.

Anyone know any good tutorial sites or want to help me get my bearings?

I’ve sold merch for Hey Chris and Cartel and it’s lots of fun :)

I just got a hold of my dad’s film SLR (Canon AE1) for my birthday so I’m using that out to get used to lenses and everything. I’m still waiting on a job so I can have the financial resources to afford footing the bill for a dSLR.

Cartel brought me onstage for my birthday which was pretty exciting. This year seems to be the year of bringing Ashley onstage.

So I got to go on stage with Fall Out Boy who is my favorite band of all time but I didn’t get to sing…I got to shoot baseballs at Dirty and get a print signed in their blood but still! I’m getting closer! :)

Back in Feb. I got my picture taken with Will from Cartel because I have lyrics from their song “Burn This City” in his handwriting. The picture is of Will next to my tattoo and they took it for a segment in Alternative Press magazine called “In Less Than 1,000 Words” where every month a different band submits pictures of what life is like on the road for them. It hasn’t been published yet but when it has, it’s kind of like having my picture in a magazine.

I got on stage with Cobra Starship and although they’re not my favorite band, I think this partly crosses off this thing I want to do before I die.

I’m starting to move along on the scrapbook. I was on show 6 and now I’ve gotten 2 more pages done.

I’m going to do this in November. My friends and I are flying out to Orlando and I’m going to rent a car for the first time so we can get around. I’m kind of excited because I consider renting a car to be one of those things you need to do as a grown up and gaining more responsibility.

Got 3 pages done and haven’t touched it in several weeks. My goal is to get it done before I see my friend again which probably won’t be for several months so hopefully once I get back to school I’ll get my butt back in gear.

Maybe tomorrow….

My friend and I came up with this idea of creating a straight edge zine since there’s really no straight edge zines out there and we’re like “hey, if cigar aficionados and boozers can have their own magazines why can’t we?” so the plan was to finish it by this summer but shit happens and so far only brain storming has happened. :(

I would LOVE to get paid to take pictures of bands for a living it’s one of my passions and I dream that a band’s PR person will love my pictures so much that they’ll get sold to AP and I’ll see them in a layout of the next issue.

Getting your license is basically the best thing ever. haha I can’t imagine NOT being able to drive.
