day 24: we the kings

i was laying in bed, so ready to get my dreams on, when i remembered i didn't blog for the day.
today was a very unexpected day. all i had planned to do was to attend j's beerbq.
however, i saw that travis clark (lead singer of the band we the kings) posted on his twitter that he was going to be playing at r mall today for free! so i gathered up my friends last minute and then we went to see we the kings. they came out later than expected. of course all the hours added up together especially since we came a couple hours earlier and they came an hour and a half later than expected but that's okay. i breathed the same air as the band, we the kings, for the second time in my life. every time i see we the kings, i can't help but think that he knows charles trippy (a youtube vlogger, a very famous one i might add). they grew up together in talahassee, florida. it's such a small world. and now the both of them are so successful, it's insane.
after that i dropped by j's bbq, even though no one else wanted to go. but some people tagged along for a bite and then left. i stayed a little bit longer. i stayed sober for the night because i knew i was going home soon. and i wasn't really comfortable with the crowd. some people were friendlier than expected. even people i've been a total jerk to over the school year. i guess it's just the high school angst. everything seems so different. and adult like. and grudge free.
and then my night ended off fairly early. i've been coming home earlier recently. especially since my dad has been on vacation and isn't working for a couple of weeks. i guess i feel bad. my father told my mother that i was spoiled. in a sense, i can see that. my mother does spoil me sometimes. but she realizes that i need to live and have fun. but at the same time, i haven't been home for dinner in days. i keep seeing my friends. i guess i should stay home more often. i guess i feel a bit guilty. that even though this is my last summer with my friends, it is my last real summer with my family. but the thing is, my friends might not be here when i come back next summer... but i know my family will be.
i guess what determines who's going to be there for me in the summer is when it's time to truly see, which ones of my friends are really my family...
till tomorrow
