Acid Girls

The other day, was talking to some people about weddings. Mostly how I hate weddings. Then I came to the conclusion that my wedding is going to be black. Maybe it will have some white. But black and white to say the least. I mean, everyone always gets caught up in the colors of what they want at their wedding, matching this, that etc, well, Black is black. White is white. No shades of in-between. But then again, if I do end up having to have "color" then I hope my wedding ends up like this. zomggg.

Peace + Love Is All I Need

Check this out, an original song written by Kelli Jean Russell, or known in the blogging world as Kelzone. I feel honored to have a song dedicated to me, or at least with my name in the lyrics. Good gosh, this is so AWESOME. Bahhhhh!!!! LUB YOU.

One + Only's

This is 'bout our one and only's
memories that comfort when we're lonely;
I'll never forget the day we met
that lame dance party but I'll never regret;
I liked the way you moved 'cross the floor,
your smiles, styles; I wanted to know more.
I never imagined that in the end
we'd become the best of friends.
o-o But we've become the best of friends
o-o I'm here for you till the bitter end.

Jordan wears his too tight jeans,
rock and roll is what he sings,
Sarah Morrison's who he reads,
but peace and love is all he needs.
o-o peace and love is what he needs,
o-o he finds it in the songs he sings.

This is 'bout our one and only's,
memories that comfort when we're lonely.
Hangin' at the swimming pool
by Hema's house to keep us cool;
he launched a surfboard at my head,
his face I neatly ripped to shreds,
but he so gently reminded me
of the principle to act forgivingly.
o-o he taught me to have charity,
o-o reminded me to act forgivingly.

Jordan wears his rosary,
has faith in God and does good deeds;
the Holy Bible's what he reads,
but peace and love is all he needs.
o-o Holy Bible and a rosary,
o-o finds peace and love in his good deeds.

This is 'bout our one and only's,
memories that comfort when we're lonely.
For the salvation of his soul
and the sake of our friendship I wrote this whole
song then found in reality
when it comes down to the nitty-gritty,
souls and friends aren't saved through songs,
but in our hearts is where they belong.
o-o For our friendship and his soul,
o-o in our hearts we'll keep it whole.

Jordan wears a smile on his face,
claims I am his saving grace;
Together I know we can succeed - in spreading
peace and love a all we need.
o-o we'll diminish animosity,
o-o cause peace and love is all we really need.

Friend of the Summer

Yes, you've seen her before and you prolly know her. Her name is Annie Salmon and she gets the Friend of the Summer award, presented by yours truly. Alls I know is that the more this summer comes to an end, the more I come to realize that Annie and I have become better friends than we ever have. Whatever happened this summer, I swear that Annie and I were doing something together. But, I really didn't care what it was, because more times than not, we did nothing, but TOGETHER. Thats friendship at its finest. To all my amigos and amigas reading this who are not Annie, then please understand that maybe you didn't text/call me enough of hang out with me more than Annie did. So you can consider your self a close second. An honor none the less. So please, if you see Annie, make sure you tell her congrats on her Friend of the Summer award. She worked hard for it, and deserves all of what it entitles... For what its worth.

Time For Change

Isn't always time for change. I mean, think about how much has changed in the past month for you. You prolly made some new homies, some people that changed your life that you never thought you would have ever met. The past month has been straight cray cray. Well, maybe month in a half. But still. I mean, my road trip out of the blue for starters with Mason + Ben, then being on 'summer vacation' for the rest of the time after that. I mean I wake up and go to the pool EVERY DAY it seems. But now that its August and the heat is winding down, its time for another change. School starts in 2 weeks for most of us, and we will all part ways and meet up again at Christmas break, or if we were never that good of friends until next summer.

As for this picture dealing with change, how do you feel about Kat Von D's new hair? She is beautiful no matter what she does. But it took me a solid second to register who it was, but its still amazing.

I guess what we all now need to do is embrace the change we are all facing and run with it.

Half A Birthday

Dang. I'm so ungrateful its unreal. I know now that I officially hate things that must be perfect. This list includes, weddings, Christmas day, New Years Eve and now my birthday. I'm not saying I hate these days, its just that I expect way too much out of them and always come away with nothing. I'm ungrateful. I'm selfish. I'm a wishful thinker that expects too much. This too shall pass, Lets see here, now to something more original. How about we get some creative energy going on and take everything we now know to the next level so we can all be awesome. Lets do this. We all need this to happen for the sake of natural progression.



Now with that said, I'll put this picture of what makes me happy. It has an edge that can make some people feel a little uncomfortable which will make me feel a little bit better. And its my favorite person to follow on twitter, the one, the only, Sarah Morrison.

Oh wait, I just remembered I made a fort out of bunk beds the other day. That alone should be amazing. Save summer by building forts.

the poor and famous

Now that summer is around the corner, as well as my birthday, on the scale of 1 to stoked, I would have to say that I'm pumped for whatever is coming my way. I am making tshirts for the poor and famous. Make sure you hit me up to get your share of the madnesssss. Black and White lifestyle shirts are what they are. I've made about a dozen designs, now I just need people to wear them. So get me your white tshirts so I can make them beautiful. I am also taking requests as to what you would want your tshirt to be, but lets just stick to what is known to be good. Make this a beautiful revolution, do your part, spread love like violence and always remember Jesus loves you.

BLACK LIPS & SHRED STICKS

I have officially been made. Well, this HOUSE out does my room by far. This goes to show, mom, dad, friends, anyone who says I have too much junk, back off, this dude here has a serious plethora of skates and surf boards and just all around shred sticks. I can only wish to be like him. honestly.

WARPED TOUR:

First off... Why Ee Es. YES. Warped tour was dope. First things first.

The first band that I watched by choice would be The Color Fred. Man that dude is old, but none the less... Next was none other than Shwayze.. Awesome performance and everything about it was just as good as you could ask for. After the Shwayze set I went on over to his booth to get some pics and get the signing stuff done with. Man Cisco is such a radical dood. I never thought that I would get to meet him, shwayze or skeet, but guess what people, I did.





After all that I checked out Cobra Starship, That set was just as good as the last time I saw them, wait actually it was better, A) because Metro Station wasn't there, and B) cause We The Kings weren't either... And there was a ton more people... And what made me even more stoked, the one song they have ft. Travy from Gym Class Heroes and William Beckett from The Academy Is; Bring It/Snakes on a Plane was epic. Both of them joined Cobra Starship and made the performance that much better.

During the last song of Cobra Starship, I headed over the the Skull Candy tent to watch the acoustic set of Shwayze, that was rad and Cisco called me out in between songs saying I looked like I was from Dogtown and I was Tony Alva's sisters friend... whatevs, compliment none the less. When the set was over I hung out and talked with them some more and got to talk one on one with Cisco and Skeet. Skeet ended up hooking me up with a pair of Shwayze/Skull Candy headphones and Cisco gave me his Banana Beats pick. I almost got the blue and white RVCA hat from Shwayze but no bueno on that one becky.



When all the fun from that died out I checked out KATY PERRY. She is so fine. Her music live is a lot more hard core than I thought it would be, which made things even better. She is pretty sassy on stage and said it how it was. I liked that. During the middle of her set Cisco and Shwayze came out to perform with her and I'm glad I saw it. Awesomenesssss!!.

That about wraps up the day of fun filled music and meeting people that I rock out to on a daily basis and some of my life goals have been completed.

RY

This post is for RY. The coolest person I know that doesn't care who you are. As you can tell, he is a University of Utah fan, and a Jazz fan. He has a little brother that I'm friends with but thats not the point. I hardly ever see him without something UofU or Jazz related on him. He has to be a legend- well at least my book, thats why I asked if he would like to start throwing up posts on my blog, and he declined with no hesitation. He's probably the only one who comments on this blog. Yet he won't be a part of it. Well when you see him, tell him you saw him on the web via goffgough. Thanks

I Wish....

....I was a DJ. Well I just wish I could spend most my nights playing loud music, making people dance and getting free stuff for being cool like DJ Skeet Skeet. Oh and I wish I lived in LA. But this handy video just gave me hope if I ever need to get into a club or be a sweet poser.



Who Am I Kidding?



And my awesome sister-n-law Katie is probably the only one who reads my blog regularly, now she is my new favorite something. (something cool, I just don't really know what yet, but cool!)

Super-fashionable.

Lately as I watch TV I find myself watching the Bravo Channel and watching Project Runway and Make Me a Supermodel. Then today I went to Nordstroms and find that everything in that store costs at least a fat hundo for one thing. I wish I was a model and could wear those clothes that cost a million dollars and look like this everyday just to change things up.



Like the rock band "OK Go!" (They dressed up once at one of their shows cause there was a president campaign across the street and so they dressed up to look like they were apart of the event and wore dead president masks, but really it was just to get attention away from the president and on them. Then they just kept the tradition and now wear million dollar dress clothes on stage for fun and it looks like it to.)

To The Up Most Degree:

So here's whats going on. I haven't posted in a while simply because I now have a life, well, not that I didn't before but, I GO TO COLLEGE NOW, wow I know, but it's different and now I'm really broke as a joke. So what to do when your luck is through. LA ink premiered season 2 this week and Kat is not prego. I still would have loved to see a Kat-Orbi baby, but the rumors are rumors. Rob and Big & Life of Ryan started to. I heart MTV. Gossip Girl is still going strong even with the stupid writers block or strike, whatever you call it, and Blake Lively is still Beautiful. Hmmm... I really really feel bad for the Spears family, they just can't seem to do anything good. Enough said. Long story short, I'm a student, and if you would have said a week ago that I would be in school right now, i would have thought you were crazy, knew something I didn't or you were going to pay for school for me. Who knew? Enjoy life. Oh and my new best friend is Ben Lopez. One Love, Gough.
