"hey there delilah, i've got so much left to say, if every simple song i wrote to you would take your breath away, i'd write it all..."

ok, so, last night was the coolest night of my life. Wanna know why it was so cool? Because Scott had a Tea Party, and so we sat around and watched The Office while drinking all kinds of teas for about 3 hours. I believe I had four mugs of Vanilla Almond flavored tea, and I even got Aubrey (who is not a tea drinker at all) to get addicted to it and have like 3 cups. We also watched the most random show on earth, called Stella, and I about died from how much I laughed at it. There were a ton of people who showed up too, let's see if I can get everyone... Scott, Aubrey, Zach, Sam, Michelle, Josh, Steve S., Kayla, Mitch, Bryan, Linds, JR, Rob, Pete, Sarah, Mike, Kate, Nick, aaaaand of course myself. Goodness! So anyway, it was tons of fun, and I woke up today craving some vanilla almond!

Here is something that I love: finishing my shower, walking into my room to see Aubrey asleep on my bed and listening to my Lord of the Rings soundtrack. seriously how cute is that, I just loveeee her.

I am working on my pride, and today was a great opportunity for me to do so. Aubs and I got in a little fight, and both of us sat inside Tropical Sno saying nothing to each other and sitting there awkwardly fuming, poor Zach had to be there throughout the tension-filled 15 minutes or so, and then I put my pride aside and told her I was sorry for getting so angry, and then she told me she was sorry for coming off as a jerk and explained what she really meant by her comment, and then we hugged and it was over. So it's little things like that that are helping me cut down my pride, so hopefully I can get better and better.

Tonight we are going to light off a bunch of Stevie's fireworks and go crazy, woooo!!!

So this is my favorite song at the moment... just look at these lyrics:

Hey there Delilah,
What’s it like in New York City?
I’m a thousand miles away,
But girl tonight you look so pretty,
Yes you do,
Time Square can’t shine as bright as you,
I swear it’s true.

Hey there Delilah,
Don’t you worry about the distance,
I’m right there if you get lonely,
Give this song another listen,
Close your eyes,
Listen to my voice it’s my disguise,
I’m by your side.

Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
What you do to me.

Hey there Delilah,
I know times are getting hard,
But just believe me girl some day,
I'll pay the bills with this guitar,
We'll have it good,
We'll have the life we knew we would,
My word is good.

Hey there Delilah,
I’ve got so much left to say,
If every simple song I wrote to you,
Would take your breath away,
I’d write it all,
Even more in love with me you’d fall,
We’d have it all.

Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me,
Oh it’s what you do to me.

A thousand miles seems pretty far,
But they’ve got planes and trains and cars,
I’d walk to you if I had no other way,
Our friends would all make fun of us,
And we'll just laugh along because,
We know that none of them have felt this way,
Delilah I can promise you,
That by the time that we get through,
The world will never ever be the same,
And you’re to blame.

Hey there Delilah you be good,
And don’t you miss me,
Two more years and you’ll be done with school,
And I'll be making history,
Like I do,
You’ll know it's all because of you,
We can do whatever we want to,
Hey there Delilah here's to you,
This one’s for you.
