I have a few more things to mention....
First off....The Detroit Cobras did a cover of a Strokes song........does that strike anyone else as a little premature?
Also.....please do yourself the favor of checking out the band "The Faint" ....seriously addictive.....Jesse (I just found out that you read this)...don't be put off by the fact that they are from the same label as Bright Eyes.....They'll cause you to have a serious case of the "God I really shouldn't be dancing this much in public".....they're just that good!!
Finally....is it that wrong that I fell in love with a fifteen year old I saw on some reality show on the Family Channel.....I didn't think so...
One more thing....If anyone...during their crazy travels meets a gentleman who wants to travel across Europe....following Bright Eyes....sleep in bushes and avoid showering for crazy wild nights and sex in train bathrooms, let me know.....
That's about all I have to say for now....I hope everyone's happy and doing well.....
"Goodbye from, Jill...Elanor...and me.......
Mr. Dress-up!!!"
(I think we have a winner!)

I have not been keeping up with this whole "updating my journal" thing very well.....sorry (I realize that at most there are like two people who may have been affected by this...but I apologize to you)!! Nothing much has been going on in my life lately...
A couple of embarassing moments that I will provide as advice in "how not to be"...the first is just proof that my sister was somewhat justified in dashing my dreams of becoming a ballerina....I had just made myself some really hot Minestrone soup and I was carrying it up the stairs when I guess I just forgot the whole "right, left, right, left" thing and totally wiped out.....spilling REALLY HOT soup all over my chest.......So Cool. It stung like a mofo...I burned myself a little...now what kind of a war wound is that????
Another tip (the last one was "never forget how to walk up stairs')....If you are wearing headphones before class starts, don't turn them up as loud as they go.....If you do, you will inevitably not know when class has started...nor will you aknowledge your professor when he has everyone in class turn their attention to you....sitting there boppin' away to the music like an idiot......and you probably won't notice for a good five minutes and then you won't be able to find your tape player in your bag (or "man purse" for all you fellers")...and you will finally resort to just yanking the headphone cord as hard as you can just to put a stop to the now obviously blairing music.
So that has been my life....
Oh yah.....my closing phrase for today is......"See ya , wouldn't wanna be ya"......so is that a keeper?

The following are some lines from a Bright Eyes song....it's a great song....always makes me think of all my "life partners" (that's really what we are aren't we..)......"I had a beautiful, beautiful time, the drives and the talks were amazing, the kind of friend I thought I'd never find, I had a beautiful, beautiful time......you have beautiful, beautiful eyes, so bright and alive and enchanting, want to be with you all of the time, you have beautiful, beautiful eyes".....it goes on...it's really pretty. Just wanted to say I Love You!!!!!!!

So....I've never kept a journal before....actually, scratch that, I kept one for about a week when I was in 3rd grade. It actually began to drive me crazy because I was always paranoid that someone would read it. I took many precautions to gaurd against that though: it had a lock....which I replaced with a more heavy duty lock....I also refused to write legibley...to this day I can't quite make out what it says. So you can see that this is a whole new experience for me.
I'll start off by admitting to be the "Jill" that Mike is always refering to in his journal (Of course any one who is taking the time to read this probably already knows that). This is actually a difficult thing to do because Mike makes me out to be a Lunatic!! As I've stated before "he thinks I have mental problems"....that's what boredom will do to you I guess. But I'm "cool yo" or even better "funky fresh"....
.....I apologize if my random displays of "hip lingo all the kids are using" just makes you sad...
All right....I actually do have more to write about but I'll leave that for another day!!!!...wouldn't want to put all my eggs in one basket.....yah that makes no sense I know....Peace Out......Okay that also sounds lame but I want to come up with a token sign off phrase and something tells me we are going to have to suffer through a lot of really crappy ones before we find a gem!!

I have finally gotten around to starting this but I have like two minutes until my class....so I'll add more later....(I'm sure you're all on the edge of your seats to)!!
