burn baby!

ok so i'm the official idiot of the day. so yesterday was an awesome day for the beach and i haven't been in the ocean once since i've gotten back. I haven't even swam at all in 2 months!! i'm dieing here! so i go play at the beach. first i fall asleep on the sand for almost 20 min after swimming for like 15 min or so, alone. then about an hour later or so Justin and Dixie come and we all go play in the water for at least an hour if not longer. Thru this whole thing i did not put any sunblock on. yes that is why i'm a bright red idiot that couldn't sleep. I woke up so many times last night trying to either cool off or warm up. BLAH!!! i hope it doesn't peel... :(

Inspiration!!

well if you wanna call it inspiration that works but I think I just want to say a few things that I like. One: Good songs. Two: Good songs that mean something. Three: Good songs that mean something peaceful. Four: Good songs that mean something peaceful and inspire you to act accordingly. Right now disney seems to fit that profile. I'm listening to my little MP3 player so I just heard "Candle on the Water" which I love! It always makes me want to help people. It inspires loyaltly as well, a trait that is not always present when needed. Now it's changed to "The Lion Sleeps" which is just one of those feel good songs. And feeling good is always conducive to treating others well, as they deserve. :)

parting blues...

my time is very odd. when i have forever before I leave somewhere I feel like it's tomorrow, which oddly doesn't inspire me to go out with friends, but to cook and clean and think a lot about packing. And when i have about 3 days before i leave i act and feel as though i have months! it really messes me up. like tonight, my last night i'm here i decide to have some friends over and have a bit of a bbq, i found filet mignon in the freezer, i was in heaven, even if i wasn't hungry. we roasted marshmellows in the firepit i just built, my dad thought that was illegal and i said i wouldn't make the fire big. I completely blackened a pineapple, that was sad i had to cut the black off. we ate so much junk i really should be sick. all this on my last night. Last nights are usually slow, relaxing yet stressful, just hang with the fam stuff. i think i'm just being weird for some reason.
so i have decided once again, i hate packing. those who had to move me before spring know this, i suck at it. and it always makes me feel like such a girl!! why can I not live without this crap!!? why do i own makeup!? why do i have jewelry? why do i want to cook this year? why do i have so many clothes?!! and i'm leaving quite a few, and i've thrown a bit out too. *heavy sigh. oh well, my bag is too heavy and i'm hopeing they don't care. i ended up with 2 carry-on's anyways cause it's just easier with a comp bag. i'm really just rambling....and i don't know why. thinking about a few things and really should be sleeping. i will travel for 19 hrs tomorrow, and be home and exhausted by 10. yuck.

people are naturally good.

the above statement has of late been re-confirmed to me. see i accidently left my purse, which had been entirely covered in duck tape earlier, in the grocery basket when my mum and me went shopping. we didn't realize this until we had got home. heehee i drove without a license, twice! well this alberstons was about 20 min or so away. so 20 min to get home, about 10 to realize it's gone and another 20 to get back, when it hadn't been turned into customer service by then we figured i'd never see it again. so another 20 min and i'm on the phone to VISA and Bank of Hawaii and the driver license people. (Bank of Hawaii has the best waiting music, by the way.) My dad also looked up if anything could be done about my new toy, the 6MP casio as well as the 1gig memory card...nothing can be done. well, that's sad and I better learn from this, i say to myself and head off to get ready for the murder mystery dinner, which was freakin AWESOME!! i was accused of murder as the puppet lady!! it was great!
so anywho, this "morning", it was almost noon but i hadn't been up too long, i called the albertson's just to see if anyone had turned it in. *totally vallery girl here: oh my gosh are you serious?! i'm totally coming to get it now. Another 20 min and i'm back at customer service claiming my duck tape purse. surprise surprise, the very little cash, the gum, lip gloss, credit card, ids, debit card, AND the camera were all still inside. they hadn't even opened it!
therefore, people are naturally good.

girls should not touch cars.

so today i broke my daddy's car. yea i took it in for the oil change
which it needed bad. and the guy said i needed a new fuel filter too
and tire rotation. about 40 min later after walking around aimlessly i
come back and the guy tells me something is wrong with the starter.
WHAT!!?? stupid. so i called my other friend and he says it sounds
like an alternator went out. and I do what about this? oh yes, i'm the
stupid one who parked it in the garage and now it won't start. we'll
be pushing it out later. yay go me. girls should not touch cars.

very sad...well sorta

Ok i just discovered something that makes me very sad. see i'm taking eng 315 online, blah!! it's not bad, just annoying. i wish i could've just skipped over the subject completely. oh well, so...i have to write a research paper for the 2nd half of the class, the 1st half was all little 2 page essays. I was hopeing most of the time that I could like revamp an old research paper, work a little more on it but not have to write an entire paper again for this class. the teacher gave me the idea everytime he said "if you can apply this to another class, do so". I'm like "hey, this could work." BLAH! no it can't for many reasons. the biggest is that all my old research papers were very very very specific to the requirments of the class. *sigh. so i can't cheat and my weekends are gone, so don't expect to play with me on saturdays, i'll be in the library doing a research paper, that is if i have my other homework done.
