Fail 2

I forgot to post last night.

I didn't go to bed until 5, and by that time I was soooo over everything.

I didn't make it 2 years.

I think I'm dunzo unless I really feel the need to post something, which probably won't happen.

Innuedos

I actually slept really nicely last night. I didn't sleep in too late, but it was later than I've been waking up, so that was good.

After I was all set to go and Erin was done doing all of her stuff, we set out for the beach. I was planning on going to Free Zuma, but she suggested we go to Ralphs Beach. I had never been there for the actual beach, so I gladly obliged. For a while it was just me and Erin and some weirdos who decided to set up a fort, but by the time we left, close to 1, it was pretty crowded. It was the perfect day for the beach too. It was too hot, but it was just hot enough where we needed to take a few breaks and get in the water. And the water wasn't too cold either, especially after we got over the initial shock of it.

I think we were back in Towers by 1 and I had planned on eating and the going to class, but plans changed. Laura left for work, so that meant Erin would be alone again, so I decided not to go to class. I went and picked up my boardshorts instead and did a few productive things. I just can't miss class again. I can't afford to miss class again. But spending time with Erin is totally better than going to class.

We spent the rest of the afternoon just hanging out and talking, and then once Katy got back from class we spent more time with us hanging out and talking. Laura was at work until forever, which sucked for everyone, and then once she got home, both she and Erin were on the phone. If I hadn't seen Katy in 4 months and I knew I wasn't going to see her for almost a year, I sure as hell wouldn't be talking to somebody else or not even around for most of the time. Fail. I'm kind of disappointed in Laura about this whole weekend, starting with Friday.

After Laura and Erin's CVS run, all 5 of us, including Kellie made a second In-N-Out run for Erin. It was pretty fun and plenty of innuendos were made. Awesome. After In-N-Out, Katy and Laura went to go talk to their boys and Erin and I got to talk some more and went out on a mini adventure. Laura doesn't want to drive tomorrow, so I volunteered, but that meant emptying out my trunk. Erin went to help me, but before we could get out of Towers, we got to watch DG lip sync to Mandy Moore, which was a little awkward. We laughed on the way to and from the car and then busted up trying to get back into our rooms.

I almost applied for BA. Erin and I would have so much fun together. But I know she'll have a great time this year and she'll make new friends. We'll be living together in our awesome house next year and we can have more fun together.

boi toi

So I ended up sleeping in Laura's room last night on the floor. It was surprisingly comfortable and I think I fell asleep relatively fast. Unfortunately, I woke up earlier than I had planned and I couldn't fall back asleep. But I guess it kind of worked out well in the end.

I got up maybe around 7:20ish, showered and was out the door around 8. Erin was still asleep in Laura's bed, Katy was still asleep in our room as far as I knew, and Laura wasn't back from her night with Newport. I had 2 hours until I had to pick Daniel up, so I stopped at CVS to get better allergy medicine and then I was on my way. I made really good time since there was pretty much no traffic and figured I might as well go get my car washed since it was filthy. After my car was all pretty and the gas tank was full, I picked Daniel up and we were off.

We made really good time back to school too. It was a little traffic-y on PCH, but that isn't out of the ordinary. After Laura and Erin were ready, all 5 of us went down to the caf for lunch. We pretty much just spent the rest of the day watching stuff online and being silly with each other. Finally around 7:30 we got the idea to go to dinner, so the 5 of us plus Isabela piled into Katy's car and made out way to BJs. The last time I went might have been with my dad, Jen, and Emme back in February. Oh. Nevermind. I went to lunch with my grandma at the one in Montebello this summer.

After dinner Daniel's parents came and got him and then I had to face Laura, Erin, and Katy. They like him. I just don't know.

Keebler

I'm still stuffy. I'm going to be fine when I wake up though. I have to.

Today was fun. I spent a lot of time with Erin, which was wonderful since I've missed her sooooo much. After we all woke up and got ready, Erin, Laura, and I went down to the caf for some waffles. We were probably down there a good two hours since we were chatting with Derek and John after we were done eating. From the caf we went to Laura's room since Chris and Katy were in our room and we didn't want to interrupt anything. Laura modeled for me and Erin, we laughed, and then Laura took off.

After debating about what to do and finding the boys bathroom, we had a really good chat about things. It wasn't too deep of a convo, but I felt that I probably would not have tlaked to her like that last year. Then we finally settled on going to dinner and a movie. We went to Islands in Agoura, but had a good hour before the movie, so we just drove around and explored. We ended up seeing Paper Heart, which was cute, quirky, and funny, but it wasn't my favorite. But I think Erin enjoyed it so that was good. We got back not too long ago and we are both tired. I need to get some sleep since I'm not feeling so hot, so I think I'm going to sleep in Laura and Erin's room with Erin on the floor so Chris and Katy can chill in here til 1 or whenever.

I need to get up early.

Food

I haven't been eating enough since I've been here. It's a problem. Not eating enough in combo with not sleeping enough has got my immune system down, and now I have a runny nose.

I went to bed last night with a little bit of a sore throat, but I didn't think much of it. Well, it was worse this morning. By the time I got ready for work, I had a good 45 minutes to kill, so I went to Starbucks. I probably should've went to the vitamin store to get some Coldcalm, and I definitely thought about it, but I didn't. I went to work instead.

I only worked until 11, which was perfect because we were done at 11, and then I drove up to Towers to pick Katy up. Erin's flight landed waaaay early, so I was freaking out a little bit and I felt bad, but I think we made okay time getting to LAX. Laura was super surprised when Erin showed up in her room. It was cute.

After catching up for a few minutes, we all went down to the caf to grab some lunch. It felt like Erin had been with us all week and like we had never been separated for 4 months. When we got back we spent even more time catching up, but I was super tired and ended up kind of falling asleep. I don't think I actually fell asleep, but I was almost there.

By the time I was up, I was hungry and needed food. We all got ready and headed out to Westwood for In-N-Out and Diddy Riese. By this time I was all congested and didn't feel so hot, so I wasn't all that excited about being out. But that's okay. We got back maybe a little over an hour ago and I still felt crappy so I got in the shower thinking it would decongest me, but it didn't.

I'll be fine tomorrow. I'm hopped up on drugs and I'll be 100% when I wake up in the morning.

I should've known today wasn't going to go as planned.

Katy and I woke up early for chapel and made our way down there only to find that celebration chapel doesn't start until next Friday. I could've slept in. Since we were already down there, we went into the caf for breakfast. Unfortunately, all the breakfast stations closed as we were in line, so we ended up with scones. Scones are fine, but I wanted more.

After breakfast I went back up to the room and spent a good 2 hours on Spanish homework, none of which was collected today. But that's okay. It's done. And Spanish went surprisingly well. I spoke up again in class and we even sang a song at the end of class.

The afternoon was going well until I asked Katy what time she wanted to leave to go see Legally Blonde. Stupid move. Laura was in our room talking to us, and then she asked what we were doing tonight, and then she got mad that I didn't buy her a ticket, so then we spent idk how long trying to get her a ticket. Then she wanted to leave ASAP, which I was not prepared for, so that sucked. I was upset about our plans changing and I was upset that I had to rush getting ready, but I sucked it up and didn't say anything. We left in separate cars, which ended up to be a good thing. I forgot the tickets. Luckily we weren't too far down PCH and were able to swing back around to pick them up. We made good time and got to LA maybe about 15 minutes after Laura. We ate at some sketch pizza place and then made our way back to the Pantages. I really enjoyed the show, but I just wish I was in a better mood.

After we got back I changed and then went down to the fountain and talked to Daniel for a bit. I spilled, which I normally don't do, so I feel a little better, but I'm still kind of in a pissy mood. It might be because I've been working hard this week and haven't gotten a whole lot of sleep. And I should be asleep right now since I have to wake up in the morning, but I'm not.

So I guess I made my first major fuck up today by not getting Laura a ticket. I was more mad at myself than at anything else, which is normally the case. I always seem to ruin things.

Fireflies

I've never seen them, but I like the song.

Thankfully, my alarm went off this morning and I was able to get up and get ready on time for class. I was happy to see the biscuit sandwich sign in the caf, but the station was closed, so that was kind of a bummer. I ended up getting oatmeal instead, which doesn't even compare.

I was pretty much falling asleep the entire time in HUM, except for the few minutes after I saw Gus. I love him. After class, I walked back up to Towers with Laura so she could get her pink mail slip and so I could get some sunglasses, but I changed my mind once we got back since I didn't want to risk waking Katy up. I was fine without sunglasses, so it wasn't a big deal at all. REL was super boring, but at least I got an A on my quiz. After REL I went and bought my workbook for Roggero's and some other mini books that will hopefully help. I probably should've done a little bit of homework for Roggero before MUS, but I didn't. I enjoyed MUS today, but Pullen got a little weird towards the end of class.

Since I had time, I should've taken the shuttle up to the SAC, but I walked. I walked up the hill to Towers, and then I walked up all of those stairs to the CCB, and then I walked up the other hill to get to the SAC. Not fun. I had plenty of time to cool off, so that was fine guess. Spanish wasn't too horrible today, so hopefully it'll just keep getting better. I wish I didn't have to go tomorrow, making my day completely free, but that's not the case. And I have lots to do for that class tomorrow.

I had a little bit of a break before I had to go to work, but because the internet connection in terrible in Towers, I wasn't able to e-mail the people I wanted to or check what I wanted to.

Work was difficult and hot, but it was fun. I met some new people and I learned a lot of new things, so that was really nice. I think I'm really going to like this job. And it worked out perfectly at the end because some girl needed to change her shift for Saturday, and I needed to change my shift for Saturday, and it just worked out. Nice.

I got back maybe around 9:15ish and was completely exhausted. I've been up since 6:30 and should probably be asleep by now, but that's okay. I just have 1 class tomorrow. Just one. And then it's the weekend.

french dip

I've been sorta waking up on my own this week, which is not normal, but good I guess. I think it's partly because I know I'm supposed to wake up, partly because it's hot, and partly because I can hear stuff outside my window. But this morning was no exception.

I wasn't the first one up, but I was the first one ready and out the door. I had an athletic staff meeting this morning before convo, so I needed to be down there early. The meeting was pretty basic and went well, as did convo. I drove down to the Fieldhouse for my meeting, so after convo I drove Katy and I back up. I found a nice spot in Towers, but it was a pain to back out of when we left for our adventure for the day.

As of last night, we didn't really have any plans, but I was thinking and I got the bright idea of going to Phillippes. Success. I got turned around for a second towards the exit, like always, but we made it. It's weird that I can eat so much at home, but when I'm at school, I can get full really easily. I guess that's good though. I don't remember what time we got back, but it was at a decent hour.

I read for HUM and semi-dozed off for a few minutes, and then made my way to BA. It's been going over my head, but I think once I start reading, I'll get the hang of it. After class I went down to the library to get some DVD that I'm supposed to watch for Spanish, but they said they didn't have it. I guess Roggero's trippin. I then went to MUS which went much better than I expected. I actually had fun and I think it's going to be better this year. After MUS I went to the bookstore to get my Spanish workbook, but I was 1 minute too late. I'll just have to get it in the morning, which is totally fine.

I didn't really do much after MUS until around 9 when I went for a run. I am uber out of shape, but I'm going to fix it. I've set my goals and I'm going to reach them. The rest of my night has consisted of showering, talking to Laura, and reading for REL. Fun.

Tomorrow's going to be even more brutal than Monday.

solo

I just had one class today, which was nice, but kind of boring.

I thought about going to the beach, but when I woke up this morning, it was kind of cloudy out. Not good beach weather. I didn't do much of anything before class at 2, but I'm sure as the semester goes on, I'll be busy with other stuff. At around 1:30ish Katy and I went to go check our mail and then I made my way up to Spanish. After class yesterday, I thought today was going to be even worse, but it was actually manageable. Still extremely difficult, but manageable. I pretty much just talked to this guy Peter the whole time.

After class I went back up to the room and tried to use my computer, but was failing most of the time. I don't know if it's because we're far away or there's lots of people here, but the wifi sucks. One minute it'll be super strong, but the majority of the time I only have 2 bars and the web pages don't ever show up. That's okay though. I'm sure it'll come in handy when I actually have stuff to do and read. I was able to watch last night's Secret Life though, so that was good.

Around 7, Laura, Katy, and I went down to the caf for dinner. It seems like all these La Serna people are coming out of the woodwork. There's some guy from LSHS in my Spanish class, I know Timari goes here, and then I saw this guy Nathan down at the caf. Weird.

The rest of my night has pretty much consisted of putzing around online. And now this guy that I went to high school with, Josh, is IMing me on Myspace and flirting his little heart out. Oh Josh.

Late night snackin'

Today was brutal. For sure.

I set my alarm for 6:30, but it didn't go off. Somehow I woke up at 6:43 and was ready in time for class. Elkins was really nice and was what I always pictured when I thought of a college classroom. We got out early so Laura, Kellie and I tried to find stuff to do. REL in JPA was boring, but that class was nice too. Again, we got out early, so I had to kill time by wandering around. I think I'm really going to like MUS and Pullen seems like a really good professor. Now I had an hour to kill, which was the longest hour of my life. No, not really. But it still seemed like forever. I wish it really was forever because SPAN sucked. That class is totally going to rape me. I am sooo rusty on my Spanish and my prof only speaks Spanish. IP really screwed me up. I could be in Katy's class with the prof that speaks English, but no. I had another hour to kill before BA, so I went to to check my mail and then took the shuttle back up. BA sounds kind of hard, but the professor is handsome and he seems like he's really passionate about teaching, so it should work out.

I was tired and hungry when I got back from my uber long day, so I was not the happiest camper. I decided to go on a run at 8 and that kind of perked me up a bit. Unfortunately, I had a shit load of Spanish to do, so that pretty much ruined my night. But that's okay.

I think this semester is going to be pretty rough, but I know I can handle it. I will have no life, but I'll handle it.

And I made my mind up.
