i want to go to the beachhhh. today. right now. i should just go by myself. that’d be fun.

anyway, the past month has been absolutely crazy. work is picking up, we leave for denver on the 5th. but i love it. its perfect for right now. i started summer school on monday, holy crap, everyday 2 things are due. i’m gonna go insane, like i did momentarily the other night. but we wont talk about that.

i have a feeling that the newsboys are going to break up. they’re coming out with a greatest hits album, and that is a sure sign that they are thinking about it, not to mention the nostalgic things they did in april at their show. that is going to be a grim sad day. but phil joel is playing at swc, so that is good.

THE KIND OF LOVIN I’M GETTIN, I DONT WANT.
THE KIND OF LOVE I WANT, I AIN’T GETTIN.

life is good right now.
life is busy right now.
life is overwhelming right now.
life is funny right now.
life is mind blowing right now.
life is interesting right now.

life is new right now.

i’m laying here with my cat watching love actually. smokey’s breath smells so bad. but i really do love him still. he gets jealous when i’m on my computer, and decides to just plop down on the keyboard. quite funny though. i love him. we have a new bird now and he is the stupidest pet one could own. he makes too much noise and just sits there. my mom’s afraid he’ll attack smokey. if he does, no more bird. harsh? nope.

yesterday was pretty good. did lots of work stuff and took a nap. went to starbucks and best buy where i treated shayne to a cd, half of the office season 2 and a huge nasty green tea frappuchino. i came home and tried to fall asleep but was awoken by a text. then i laughed for about a hour while this text a thon occured, then it stopped. hahah shoot. i don tthink anybody knows what i’m talking about, and that’s ok. its better that way. lets just say … hahahhaha i can’t talk about it. its too funny and non realistic. fun funny fun.

today, meeting then maybe meeting up with carynn and angi. hopefully that’ll happenen!

man this week has been goooood.

gosh dangit. this weekend was fantastic.

saturday, we woke up suuuuper early and did our thing. it went fantastically on our end. there were many many many highlights of the day. some of which i must not speak about on here. most of which. the best thing was having a walkie talkie. and seeing friends.

today however, i can barely move. my back hurts, my shins are splitting, my feet are swollen. gosh i’m beat up. and my hairs duurrrrty. worth it? oh so much. i’d do it again tomorrow. and the next day and the next. thank you jesus.

now its time to go to bed, wait for tomorrow, wait for hanging out. i love how my dad’s giving someone a tour of our house complete with the history of it right now.

tomorrow’s the portland uprising festival. its been insane, but we’ll kick some butt tomorrow.  i found this amazing vegan coffee shop today and the lady was super nice. she made me a fantastic soy cream cheese everything bagel and soy latte. god bless her soul. i feel like portland is in the middle of nowhere. but i know its not, i’m sure we are just in the wrong part. i also feel like i’m the wierdest one here. why is that? i’m so normal/quiet at home??!

tomorrow should be good. i’m stoked to see some familiar faces. hahhaha.

by the way, when did a few of my friends  become creeps???? l0lz.

by the way AGAIN, phil joel is playing at spirit west coast.  i cried when i found out, no lie. he’s not in the newsboys but performing by himself. how rare is that? ffrrriiiiiccccckkkkk i’m so bummed. i need to vent. where’s my phone so i can call my mom

p as in photosynthesis. b as in beef with broccoli.

weekend = very gooooood.

friday was a great day, i’m officially working at transparent productions and i’m sooo stinkin excited.
“the stage is set and the show is beginning, its just beginning…” maybe this means that starbucks will be kicked to the curb, sticking it to the man. i’m tired of trying to pursuade people to not get whipped cream, extra carmel, venti heart attacks, and gag matcha powder.
saturday night i attended day 2 of swimathon 2k7 at carynn’s.
i’m obsessed with the pretzles at claim jumper now, thanks carynn & angi. we ate healthily: pretzles, salad, chicken, juice, strawberries.. oh so healthy. hahaha
last night was very good. hung out in chino with adam and met a bunch of new faces. i got to drive on the 71, my favorite freeway around my house. the best part was a little more north, but still i got to experiance it with amy winehouse.

today: doctors then TP. craaaaaazy week starting. portland on thursday, stoked. swimming tomorrow. in between that, i need to find time to write my paper.

favorite cd right now:

new blog, thanks josh.

its way too early and way too cold outside for may.
