 I really want to go to an aquarium. And a flea market, preferably ones in BK. I also need to check out that HCO store.
I'll be away for a week watching Graham. His parents (the owners) are going to be in CA at a wedding.
My summer session II class starts on Monday ~ business communications class. The professor emailed us and told us that it might be cancelled cause there's only 10 people enrolled in it. If that's the case, I might have to take another class in the fall. Ugh, this sucks.
Nothing exciting has been going on, obviously. But I'll probably have more things to talk about after I come back from dog sitting. |

Please tell all your friends. I want to revive it. This is kind of a temporary trial...if the posts are still getting little to no comments by the fall then we'll shut it down completely.

Happy belated fourth of July everyone! I hope everyone had a fantastic day even if you don't actually celebrate the holiday.
Bri and I went to her boyfriend's parent's farm for the weekend for the annual 4th of July extravaganza the boys host every year (and by boys, I mean most of my brother's college friends and all the randoms they've befriended over the year). I wasn't gung ho about going, but Bri and I are a team so I couldn't desert her in her time of need. Her and the boyfriend are on the downhill slide, but she hasn't actually gotten the balls to break up with him yet. It was a truly awkward time for me since I feel caught in the middle. I love her boyfriend to pieces and I'm pretty sad that it doesn't seem like they're going to work it out, but Bri is also my best friend and the boyfriend isn't always a fabulous boyfriend. He's an utterly fantastic person, but his boyfriend skills leave a bit to be desired. It's complicated and I'm not exactly sure how it happened but instead of Bri crying this weekend it ended up being me. *le sigh* I'm such a chick sometimes...
To make a long story short, this weekend was about 50% fantastic and 50% horrid. On the plus side, I do have a new man interest (sort of. a little bit. not quite sure). I'm pretty sure he's interested, but I guess we'll see. He's my brother's friend which is always a little weird so I'm trying to keep it on the d.l. until things are a bit more clear. I always end up crashing with one of my brother's friends because I never have an official place to sleep and Bri ditches me to sleep with the boyfriend so I'm always scrambling for a bed on these boy weekends, but luckily his friends don't seem to mind sharing. I ended up sleeping with Carl the first night (it seems I always end up with Carl) and Nathan the second (Nathan is the man interest btw). I had been vaguely crushing on Carl, but I'm relatively sure that isn't going anywhere so I've pretty much given up. Nathan and I went to bed last night and instead of falling asleep right away we ended up talking for about three hours before falling asleep. We'd been hanging out all weekend, but this was the first time it was truly just the two of us. It was strangely comfortable. I'm not usually great at conversation until I feel uber comfortable around people, but it came really naturally. It was weird. Plus, he held my hand all night and I'm a sucker for a hand hold.
I guess we'll have to see where it leads, but neither of us is a real move-maker so who knows. Plus he lives about two hours away and I'm not really into the long distance thing, but that's totally putting the cart before the house since we haven't even gone on a date and/or even admit to any feelings. You know how most boys have a little bit of douche bag in them? I mean let's face it, most boys have more than a little d-bag in them, but Nathan really doesn't. He's the sweetest thing. A total gentleman. Bri didn't even mind that I'd told him about her troubles with the boyfriend.
Jeez Louise, this post is boy this, boy that. Talk about boring. Sorry about all that. Bri and I have discussed this situation ad nauseum, but I still feel like I want to talk it out with people. See what I mean about being a total chick?
On an unrelated note, I've been loving summer so far, but I miss all my tv shows! I want Greek back bad! At least I have SYTYCD and Army Wives to entertain men.

I just took a look inside my refrigerator and my God, the amount of left over food containers in there is ridiculous. We've got pizza from last night, Chinese food from Friday, Thai food from...I don't even know when. That should probably be the first to go.
This is what happens when it's too damn hot outside to cook.
Tell me: what is you most/least favorite leftover food?
My most favorite: Chinese. Cold lo mein noodles and egg rolls are YUM. My least favorite: Cold Pizza. |

| Update on Mom |
[Jul. 1st, 2009|05:56 pm] |
So today mom received the results of her petscan. This tells how much cancer is living and how much cancer is dead.
So officially as of July 1st, 2009 my mother is
CANCER FREE!!!
They are giving her 6 more months of chemo just to ensure that everything is staying away. I think between mom and I, we told everyone we knew.
I just want to thank everyone for their prayers. Believing that God works miracles and staying positive is what got us through the whole experience.
Thank you all! |

| | michael jackson - dangerous | ] | I remember watching MTV when I was little, all day every day. I remember making my mom tape the Thriller Making Of Special. I remember watching it every day and learning the dance to a T before I was even in kindergarden. I remember watching it until the VHS broke. I remember telling my mom I wanted to take dance class so I could be in a music video too. I remember teaching the little girls in my stupid dance class the Beat It dance and getting in trouble because I was supposed to be doing 'I'm A Little Tea Pot'. I remember quitting dance class because they didn't teach me Michael or Janet Jackson dances and it was stupid. I remember when watching the premiere of a Michael Jackson video was an event. When watching any music video premiere was an event. I remember having all the cassette tapes in a box and I lost track of the times I needed to replace them when they fell apart.
Michael was the reason why I started dancing, why I wanted to be in music videos, why I studied so much choreography. I feel like with his death, a small part of my childhood died too. It just feels like too soon for all this to happen.
It's still very surreal that he's gone and I hope people can remember him for the amazing videos he made. He changed music, pop culture and me. |

ARG FUCK. I was just about to buy a shirt from Shirt.Woot (it's site that has a different shirt for $10 each day) and I went back TWO MINUTES LATER and it has changed for the day. FUCK!
That means the shirt will probably be on sale for $15 from now on and I don't have $15 because I'm fucking broke.
=(
Also, I'd really like to complain about the stupid ass etsy seller I've been watching since December. She makes these really cool, unique bags. I've been saving my money for one since last christmas. The problem is her winter bags were really ugly, dull colors, so I was holding out for fun, spring colored ones.
- First off, she only lists a few bags every month and they always sell out really fast. - Secondly, She wasn't taking custom orders when I started watching her shop and now she's decided she won't take them at all anymore. (which really sucks for me since I had my heart set on a bright green bag.) - Thirdly, all of her bags lately have been in dull, ugly colors or pattens. - Fourth of all, she redesigned the bags and now they are butt fucking ugly. - Finally, she hasn't put up any of the style of bag I like in months (well she put up one or two in a puke grey color, but that's it).
I am so, so saddened by this. I really wanted one of those bags. I've been checking her shop almost everyday. |
