Remodeling

So I began yesterday on my bedroom remodeling project
So far I've done the following:
1. Cleaned out... EVERYTHING
2. Picked out paint (a sand color)
3. Scraped the popcorn stuff off the ceiling
4. Thrown away/gotten rid of various old possessions

In the future I'm planning on painting, then ripping out the carpet and putting in hardwood, raising my bed up to put clothes in and getting rid of the clunky dresser, and then putting all my belongings BACK into my room

Wish me luck...

Foo FIghters: Everlong

Hello
I've waited here for you
Everlong
Tonight, I throw myself into
and out of the red, out of her head she sang

Come down
and waste away with me
down with me

Slow how
You wanted it to be
I'm over my head, out of your head you sang
And i wonder
When I sing along with you

If everything could ever be this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing ill ever ask of you
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when
Breathe out
So I can breathe you in
Hold you in

And now
I know you always been
Out of your head
Out of my head I sang

And I wonder
When I sing along with you

If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when 

If everything could ever feel this real forever
If anything could ever be this good again
The only thing I'll ever ask of you
You gotta promise not to stop when I say when 

P.S.
All of this was written from memory and listening to the song once! Skills? I think so.

Batman, Kingdom Hearts II, and inFAMOUS

So... what has Matt been doing this summer so far?
Well... working out, then spending all my time playing inFamous and Kingdom Hearts 2.
I also spend my time waiting for Batman: Arkham Asylum to come out... DANGIT I WANT THAT GAME SO BAD!!!! I want that game like a fat kid wants cake... That was kind of mean, but you get the idea!
I'm just hanging out right now, waiting for my mom to get off of inFamous so I  can play...
Ooh, I found out my style of gameplay is called "Agressive" Because I  don't wait to snipe people out the smart way, instead I go in full force and attack non-stop.
In exciting fashion news, I'm switching from low loose Bootcut(527) to Slim Straight(514) Levi's Jeans... don't know if that's important or not to the world, but I don't really care anyways
I spent my weekend down in Sutter Creek for my baby cousin, Will's first birthday. It was very exciting.
I still can't get used to the sleep I finally get now, it's incredible!
Uh... I need to get out more, hopefully I'll get to do that more in the next week, since I'm going CRAZY OUT OF MY MIND IN HERE!!!!!!!

Viva La Gloria

Hey Gloria
Are you standing close to the edge?
Lookout to the setting sun
The brink of your vision
Eternal youth is
A landscape of the lie

The cracks of my skin can prove
As the years will testify
Say your prayers and light a fire
We're going to start a war
Your slogans a gun for hire
It's what we waited for

Hey Gloria,

This is why we're on the edge
The fight of our lives been drawn to
This undying love.

Gloria, Viva La Gloria
You blast your name
In graffiti on the walls
Falling through broken glass that's
Slashing through yuor spirit
I can hear it like a jilted crowd

Gloria, where are you Gloria
You found a home
In all your scars and ammunition
You made your bed in salad days
Amongst the ruin
Ashes to ashes of our youth

She smashed her knuckles into winter
As autumns wind fades into black
She is the saint on all the sinners
The one that's fallen through the cracks
So don't put away your burning light

Gloria, where are you Gloria
Don't lose your faith
To your lost naivete
Weather the storm and don't look
Back on last November
When your banners were burning down

Gloria, viva la Gloria
Send me your amnesty down
To the broken hearted
Bring us the season
That we always will remember
Don't let the bonfires go out

So Gloria,
Send out your message of the light
That shadows in the night.
Gloria, where's your undying love?
Tell me the story of your life

Blah

So... where to begin...?
Huh...
Anywho, school's over tomorrow, getting to play at graduation.
Uh, just sitting around, waiting for my mom to get home from work, and we'll go out or something and get lunch.
Watched the Matrix, and it was epic! I love that movie! Never get tired of it.
blah... not so much to say, maybe more tomorrow
