God took a crazy pill this week and is having some fun with my life and I love it!

So my week has been interestingly stressful is how I would describe it.

Monday- oh my mom and I got into a fight when I drove her to the airport, then it was class time, and then Jessie came over for the hills.

Tuesday- Class and I had to accept the internship in cali, but I am so actively looking for another one.

Wed- Cassie and I met for lunch at noodles and then it was class. We had the last stats quiz, so that’s almost done. Then I got home and hung out with Sara then I had to drive Jessie to the airport. When I got back I got a call from AT&T and it was this guy saying that he was going to reactivate my phone. I was like umm I think you have the wrong number because my phone was never lost or stolen today. Then he said that my mom was on the other line and she had called early to turn it off because it was lost or stolen. I was like WTF are you serious. So I asked the guy what time my phone was off because I didn’t notice and he couldn’t tell me the answer, but he was really confused. So after I grilled him a bit more he said he had to get back to my mom and let her know that it was reactivated. When I got off the phone Sara was looking at me and I was just like Oh MY GOD over and over. I couldn’t believe my mom would take that big of a crazy pill and do that. Sara was laughing and was like since when did your parents switch with Mo’s parents. She said that my dad probably was the one who was like Sara you are crazy turn her phone back on. So I called my dad and he acted like he didn’t know what I was talking about, but then I got it out of him. She was upset that I didn’t call her back right away…talk about crazy. I just couldn’t believe it I was laughing this was so ridiculous.

Thursday- Class oh and Cedric had one of the best that’s what she said. We were watching a movie and the movie said two lines and then Cedric just pulled it out. It was so funny. After class I went over to Sarah’s, we ordered a pizza and watched some friends. Once the pizza got there we started to have some fun. As Cal can attest to our states got worse as the night went on. Thanks for entertaining us Cal! We went to the corner store for straws, but I put my jacket on upside down, once we got there we couldn’t find the straws and Sarah was not walking a straight line. We asked the guy who worked there if he had straws and he didn’t but he gave us some free ones instead. Oh and apparently guys if you want money off your rent Sarah thinks I should date your landlord because apparently he was hitting on me ha okay. We went to bed at a decent time, but who knows how good our sleep was because we didn’t hear a thunderstorm move through when the window was open.

Friday- I made some decent headway in my HR paper, it is going to suck to finish it. Then I got a coupon in the mail and I got a free chipotle burrito coupon, so I went and used that. At 7:30 I met Kari at her apartment and we went to AGD’s crush party. It was 80s themed so I got to wear my ugly sweater again. Got to Kari’s and it was raining so hard. I changed there and helped Kari roll up her skirt. Then Jackie drove us for a run and then we went to Melrose to pick Jess and Rachel up. We then had Jackie drop us off at AGD where I ran inside to get Camille’s car key so that we could car bar it and right when I got in the door there was the guy from stats. He looked at me and did an up down and was like you look cute tonight. In my head I was like someone invited you here who likes you at it is not me, so go be with her. In real life I was kinda flirty but like I have to go party. We took the car and went to McDonalds for soda and then chilled in the car until the bus came. We took the bus to the corner bar. It was so empty, it was just our group and some outsiders. (Johanna guess what is on right now Escape from Witch Mountain). We got some drinks and waited for people to get there. We eventually went and danced and man there were far to many penises around me. First some guy came up behind me and introduced himself and started grinding with me, I was like can’t you tell I am having fun with the girls, but I danced with him anyways. Then I left and Kari and I tried to spike the drinks in the bathroom, we got in trouble but we didn’t get kicked out so that was cool. We went back out and danced and then some guy did the come here finger, so that I would go dance with him, I was like ummm no since when am I going to go over to you. If you want to dance with me you come over here. Later he ended up coming over and dancing. He got in front of me at some point and turned around and bent over and I was like WTF is this! Luckily Kate was there she just came in and danced with me so that he would leave. But like two min after he left some other guy was up on me. This one wouldn’t leave when Kate tried to step in and he had his hand really tightly around me and I was like get off. So I just walked away. When we went back and danced again Bobby-stats guy- did the come here finger. He was dancing with the girl he came with and I had seen him kissing her and now he wants me to dance with him. I was like no, but I made sure to walk away cutely to make him mad. There were some other creepers at the bar that Kari wanted me to go hit on and get free drinks, they were older men probably in their forties and whenever a girl would walk by they would turn and watch he walk away, it was creepy. Oh and at one point we were dancing with Jeff (Tallis’ old roommate) and he wrote on the steamy windows OMS creeper. It was so funny. When we left we got back on the bus and went to AGD. Kari and I had to go to the bathroom, so we walk in and there is a guy peeing in the sink and a guy peeing in the stall. Kari was like can’t you see this is a women’s bathroom and they were like they all are this is a sorority. So, Kari turned around to be nice, but I totally watched the guy peeing in the sink to make them feel awkward. When we walked out stats guy was standing there and he wanted to talk to me. So we started talking and he was like you should have danced with me cuz you look hot and I was like hold up you came here with someone. He was like well she likes me and I dunno. I was like go after her and he was like well what about you and I was like go for her. Then he said oh so whats the deal with the bald guy you sit by in class (Tallis, he knows his name but was being a jackass) and he was like whats he got that I don’t have. I was like what the hell are you talking about (at this point Kari was by us) and he was like well you guys just go shopping and eat and I was like he is a good friend and he was like but not as good as me. At this point Kari and I turned into bitches because are you really saying this about a friend, so she and I said you only wish you could be half of what he is. We were like he is a nice guy and way hotter than you. At that point he changed the subject and tried to get on my good side again and started feeling up my leg because I was wearing my running spandex. I also noticed while he was talking to me he wasn’t looking at my face. That was it I was out, so Kari and I went to some other frat. We got in and I convinced the guy I was over 21. Right when we walked in the guy I went to lunch and had coffee with who wont leave me alone was there. I was like shit cuz I was standing in plain light. Kari got a kick out of the fact that we saw both guys tonight. We went downstairs and ran into Lauren, that was fun because it was my goal this semester to run into her at a party. He stayed for a bit, but walked home. We had some popcorn and laughed for a while and then it was sleep time.

Saturday- I just woke up from my nap that I took once I got home. I have to work on a paper and then go to Carlson at four to work on a project. I don’t know what is happening tonight, but I just hope that there are not so many creepers or I hope that I can learn to not attract creepers in the time between now and then. Sorry this was so long, I hope you enjoyed the story about last night.

No more pickles

Wow can you all believe how fast this semester has gone. There are only two weeks left of school and then its finals. It snowed here last night and there is a little snow on the ground and as I look outside it is snowing right now. Does the weather not know that it is May next week, I mean come on SNOW.

Alright well here is what is going on here.

Monday- Class and then Jessie came over for the hills and I had to right a stupid 3 page single spaced paper for marketing.

Tuesday- Class, then I went to go get my car washed. It looked so pretty all black and shiny. I don’t remember what else happened.

Wed- class, oh so funny so the guy from stats sat next to me. WHAT A CREEPER. He came in late and there was a seat open next to me and he thought that he could text me, and I was like that would be a bit weird since you are right next to me. Then Tallis sent me a text that was like oh how cute you saved a spot for your boy. AGG no! So the guy kept staring at me in class, which was kinda creepy. Then he looked like he was going to sleep and then he turned to me and was like you are the only reason I pay attention in class. YUCK, what an awful line. Tallis and I had some fun making fun of him and joking that we were both looking for a hairy man. Ha Ha. After that I met Jackie in front of Carlson and she and I headed over the bridge to meet Cassie. On our way over, we met up with Kysa and Jeff. Jeff said that he and his friends who sit behind me in class felt so bad for me today with this guy. They had a good laugh over it. Jeff is too funny. Kysa was late for class in moos tower, like always (I love you Kysa). Jackie, Cassie and I sat out on the grass outside the Alumni center and watched some hot men throw a football around. It was hot out like 73 degrees, but it felt so good. We hung out there for a while, and then Jackie and I walked back over the bridge and talked. It was good to talk to her and she seemed to be back to the Jackie that I knew from last year. I had to go back to Carlson to meet Kari and Wade for the project. WADE what a weirdo, he got there and slammed his head into one of the Carlson lunch tables. Kari and I were laughing so hard without a sound. We worked on our project and tried to set up Wade with a Facebook, but that didn’t work to well. When 7:30 rolled around Kari and Wade left and I worked for a bit longer then went home. I was only home for a like an hour, then I went to the airport to pick up my mom. We went back to my aunt’s house and the three of us talked until midnight, then I went home.

Thursday- I felt like a college student today. Kari and I went back to her apartment after out morning class and she had my beer in the fridge, so Kari and I and Chelsea had a beer. I went to marketing with a bit of a buzz and I was like I love it. After marketing I had a study to do that I got paid for, then it was off to tour Cal and Zeke’s potential apartment. The landlord was funny and nice and Sarah and I actually got lost on the way over. Hey Cal its AVE not ST. So we tried to get people to help us and that was a challenge, but finally it was her mom that found our way. After we toured we went back to her place and talked to Zeke on skype then went to Chipotle for dinner. It was pouring we were soaked by the time we got back. We watched the office and friends and then I went home.

Friday- I met up with Amy and Tallis to go over stats in the morning, then I had to be back at my apartment at 11:15 to meet my mom and my aunt. We went to downtown St. Paul for lunch with my cousin. Then we swung by my apartment to go to the bathroom and then we went to the mall of America. It was so freaking hot in the mall. I got two pairs of shoes, four shirts, and a pair of pants. My mom and my aunt went into forever 21 with me and they stood and laughed at some of the clothes because it is what they wore in the 70s. They also made the observation that all the clothes that are in style are recession clothes. They are yellow, red, orange, pink, and other bright colors, which I guess are recession colors because the color is the thing that helps people feel better. After shopping they went to the liquor store and then I met them back at my aunt’s. We had cheese and crackers, watched the news, played cards and chatted.

Today- I am going to meet my mom and then we are going to go to lunch. Then we are going to Rosedale for more shopping (I love having my mom here, my closet gets revamped). Then who knows, but it is nice to be hanging out with my mom.

This week is going to be lower key, but the next week after that is going to kill me, so I might try to get things started. Oh and for everyone who knows, my pickle is no longer a pickle!

Glorious

Hey everyone, this week has been crazy and I know that I have been super busy, but nothing seems as important as drinking my tea right now. I may have to take a break during this to go shower cuz Sara is in the shower right now. Oh my gosh, a tila tequila part two commercial just came on “things didn’t work out with Bobby, so now I am looking for another person.” “HEEEYYYY”

So, Kari wanted me to talk about last Sunday, so here is last Sunday: So Kari decided to come over to work on our project, so after a few minutes of us talking we ordered pizza and called Wade (can I just say that we both really think he hates us and I find that so funny because we are doing all of his work). Once the pizza was eaten, we decided to go find somewhere else that has the internet and is better than mine, so we walked to Caribou well it closes at 8 on Sundays (who the hell closes at 8 but whatever), so we went over to Starbucks. We grabbed a table inside of barnes and noble and got ourselves coffee. When we went to go sit back down, the guy from Barnes and Noble came over and was like don’t settle in because they were closing in like a minute, so we had to find a place in probably the smallest Starbucks ever. Since there were no spots inside, Kari and I decided to grab a table outside (it was probably only 53 degrees). We sat there for a while and I played some classical music off my computer and the people outside were giving us the weirdest looks. Kari and I were laughing so hard because she couldn’t feel her hands and people inside were looking at us like we were crazy too. After a while we couldn’t take it anymore and headed back to my apartment and finished up the project.

Monday- After class, I went over to Jessie’s and she dropped her baby off with a neighbor and she and I went running. It was such a nice day and we did the run we used to do it high school and it felt so good to be outside of where I normally am. Then she came over to watch the hills and talk.

Tuesday- Class and free lunch because of business week going on. I don’t remember much else (oh the first woman won the Biggest Loser).

Wed- Class, oh and then I went over to Mike’s dorm to chill for a while and use the hub. When Tallis was done with class he gave me a call and I met him upstairs and then we went to dinner in Comstock. Holy cow what a good dinner that was, there was fish with dill and lemon, brown rice, and green beans (oh wow that sounds so good right now). After dinner we were off to my car and then it was time to shop. It was such a nice day out, probably like seventy degrees and it was so much fun. We drove around in Bloomington/Edina and then went to the southdale mall. That mall has seriously gone down the shit hole half the shops are empty. On our back we had some problems getting onto 35W north for some reason, so we had a bit of an adventure and that was fun. Once I dropped Tallis back off at Comstock I went home and chilled.

Thursday- I went to school early to try to get a small t-shirt, but even though I was the first person to get breakfast, there were no smalls. So, Andy Post made my day when I walked into class because he had grabbed a small one for me, so I traded my medium for the small and I was good to go. The rest of the day went fine, I think, and then it was time for management. I love that class and I have no idea why, I just love listening to Goldman and the points he talks about. We got out early, so that was nice. I decided not to go to bar night because I didn’t really want to go to it and I had a shit ton to do because my mom is coming next week and I don’t want to be doing homework while she is here. Oh and I have totally gotten into the show sex and the city, so that is now my guilty pleasure to watch and I got to watch it on Thursday.

Friday- So I woke up, had my tea and cheerios, then I headed over to Caribou because I had to register at 11:15. Once I started to register I realized I read the times of one of the classes wrong the other day when I made my plan, so I was like shit shit shit. But it ended up being okay and working out better. Now I only have class two days a week and the classes I am taking are OMS 3001, FINA 3001, ACCT 3001, MGMT 3033W, MGMT 3040, and BA 3000 all on either Tuesday or Thursday. Then I worked on my mom’s calendars. When I got back I called Jessie and she and I went to best buy and bought some movies and then to the grocery store to buy dinner. We went back to my place and chilled and had a little drinky drinky while listening to my music. When Sara and Mike came back from their dinner, Sara figured it out, but I don’t think that Mike got it and that was seriously funny to us.

Saturday- Now I am here working on this. While writing this I have showered and went and got a coffee. In one min I will be leaving to go get Andrew and Cedric from Comstock and then the three of us are going to Tallis’ Frisbee thing. That should be fun. Then tonight Mike, Gerardo, Erin, and I are going to chill here and have some fun!

Have a good week everyone there are only so many left. Oh and Zeke where is my postcard????????? Love you all!

Crazy busy or just crazy you be the judge!

Hey everyone, so there are only four weeks of class left and yes I get that that is a blessing, but do you have any idea how much shit I have left. Management 3010 is too much work and I am contemplating droping my entre major cuz I will never use it and I want to get the hell out of Minnesota asap. So there have been crazy things happening this week and then there have been things that have been dragging me down and those are the ones that suck. I wish you all were back so that I would have more good friends. I am sick of being spread so thin that I can't handle it and I hate hearing things about David (he came to the U on Wed and hung out with Heather and Lindsay and talked to Kysa) it just drives me nuts because he never really wanted to hang out at the U when I was dating him and now I hear he shows up and sees people. There is a silver lining, Kysa said he didn't look like he wanted to be there. I just feel like its like an invasion of my space to know he is at the U. I am so damn scared of him and hurt by him that I don't want to hear that he is that close to me. Like on Sunday I ended up driving behind him on river road and I was just like are you kidding. Maybe are you kidding me should be the title this week cuz I definatly said that a ton.

Monday- I don't really remember much, but Jessie came over for the hills and she stayed until like 12:30 and then I talked to Kysa for an hour and Mike after that, so I was up until like two thirty.

Tuesday- All I can say is that I was tried. Don't remember anything exciting happening so yeah.

Wed- CRAZY DAY!!! Started off at nine am and I met Craig at the purple onion for coffee and we chatted for like two hours, I got a parking ticket (which I figured I would get so whatever) and then I drove Craig to class and then I was off to meet Cassie for Lunch. It was fun to catch up with her and she has a new boy too! Then it was class which I was late for, then after class I had to work on our presentation for Mgmt 3010 and I didn't get home until seven. I watched the twins then went and worked out and attempted to study for my mktg test but the thing is I really didn't care about it so whatever.

Thursday- The presentation went horrible! Kari and My part was fine, but our prof thought we werent clever enough on how to get info and then Wade called himself a tool in front of the whole class and then he shot down everyone's ideas in the discussion. After class I was so pissed and my marketing test didn't go that well, but who cares. HR was fine boring like always but we went over the final stuff, so basically that class is over. Management is my favorite class and Cedric and I had fun. After class I ran into this cute guy I had class with last semester and I have seen him on a thursday before so we chatted and then he was like well I guess I will see you next week, so yeah that should be sweet. I went over to Sarah's after that but it took a half hour to get over there cuz of the shitty weather. Once I got there we decided to order pizza and they guy who delievered it was super chatty and nice, so that was fun and he thought the power went out cuz there was a light out and we were like no this apartment place is just a shit hole. We watched the office and friends and played cards.

Friday- I slept in then I can't really remember how I spent my time yesterday and I really don't have much to show for it either. Cassie, Kysa and I decided to have a girls night, so I brought my DVD/VCR over to Grand Marc because theirs was broken and I looked so sketchy walking around with that. We played nerts with Jackie and Alex too and then we started to watch Runaway Bride. Kari called us right at the begining and she needed to be picked up from the AGD formal, so Kysa, Cassie and I went. First we dropped Cassie off because she had a test in the morning and then we went to pick up Kari. Jeff (Tallis' old roommate) walked over to the car with Kari and he was chatting with Kari, Kysa, and I and he knew who I was which was really funny and I think we might go out with him next weekend which would be so random. We went back to Grand Marc and watched the movie. Alex and Jackie were asleep in front of the TV so that was interesting and then Kari went off to bed because she just wanted to pass out. It was such a nice night to hang out with the girls cuz the weather was shitty and it felt good to be with people who I haven't seen or hung out with in a while.

Saturday- This morning I woke up and had my tea and just felt weird about stuff, so I talked to my mom and I ended up telling her that I partied last year like every night and that is why it is hard for me not to be friends with David any more because he got me back to the person I was before my left went down the drain during senior year of high school. So that was nice and now I feel closer to my mom. I am also looking into transfering to a UC school that has a great operations program because i really just can't handle how sufficating Minnesota feels to me. Right now I am at my aunt's house doing laundry. Tonight, Mike, Mike, Sara, Erin, Anna and myself are going bowling for my cousin to raise money for her breast cancer three day walk so that should be a blast.

Tomorrow- Kari is coming over and we are doing out mgmt 3010 feasability thing so that will be no fun and this week is not going to be as crazy as last week, so that should be wonderful oh and it is the biggest loser finale on tuesday exciting and it is bar night on thursday yeah!

Have a good week!

I Can't Say No

Hey GUYS!!! What a crazy week, I am warning you I am watching this while watching America’s Next Top Model from last week, so if I don’t make sense while writing (although then it will just sound like I am talking). What do you think New Yorkers think when they see all the TV shows being shot on the street. I learned something about this week, I can't say no. I have never been able to say no because I always feel bad when I say no because I know that it is probably something I can do. There has only been one guy that I have dated that I wanted to date and the rest it was just because I felt bad because they put so much effort into me that I felt that I couldn't say no. Also, I feel like with other things when people ask me to do something and I have the ability I will say yes, this doesnt mean that I want to. I guess once you know me there is a huge difference between my yeses there are some where I am like sure whatever and then there are some where I am jazzed. That is not good, but it will probably never be changed.

Well here is my week (oh and sorry for the drunken facebook posts again)

Monday- hmm class, crap I made a promise to myself that I would remember but now I can’t, oh yeah I put RAM in my computer (Cal would be proud) and it works amazingly well.

Tuesday- I am so sorry this was a crazy week and all I remember is class, oh and Kari and I had lunch with Mike W. at Bleecker Street.

Wed- I went to school early to meet Sam to get the case study and ran into Clark at the same time. Clark and I had a very interesting conversation where I felt a bit attacked, but oh well (oh my gosh there is a show on the CW called farmer wants a wife and the farmer is hot and I would marry him in an instant we could have my cows!!). Then it was class and then I went to Comstock to chill until the group was going to meet for the case, and in the mean time I hung out with Mike and Anna. Gosh what a cute couple, I adore Anna and she is that perfect balance for Mike (I sound like an old lady). The three of us had dinner and had a great time then it was off to Carlson for a night of hell. Sam, Mike, Andy and I worked on the case until super late and we got a ton done and we had fun and decided to fire sue that bitch and there were defiantly some fun times. When I got home at about 2 Sara was still up and I was like see ya I am going to pass out now. I could not fall asleep because all I could think about is lead times and how to fix them.

Thursday- Woke up and felt like death, well not really, but I felt exhausted because I was still not over being tired from the weekend. Class was interesting I guess, nothing special. After my morning class I went to Chipotle to meet the guy from last weekend. The lunch went great and yes I was able to eat Chipotle while still managing to look cute (which I was asking everyone how to do). We will see what happens, I will keep you guys posted I dunno we will see. Then it was back to class for the boring part of the day, I was having a super hard time staying awake. But in HR it was time for evaluations and man I went to town on Sid and it felt damn good. During management Cedric and I decided to leave early because I had to meet Sam and he and the rest of those guys had to go look at a house. Sam, Andy and I went to dinner at Panino’s and had a blast, it was cool to finally get to know Andy rather than just working in class or on this case with him. The case sucked and we were going crazy by three am and when four am rolled around we realized we had crap, so we tossed in the towel. By the time we left Carlson all the lights were off in the building and no one was left. We were up on the second story of the atrium and were saying fuck so loud in resounded through the area. When I walked outside it was no longer dark out, but a bit dusty and the damn birds were chirping. I walked down 19th and didn’t see a car, no one was out, I drove down river road with “I want to talk about me” by Toby Keith blaring out of my sunroof and car windows! I got home and just was dead, but my brain was still going it was hard to fall asleep.

Friday- I slept till noon and the only reason I woke up was because the mailman came and woke me. I handed in stats at caribou and then worked on my schedule for next semester, which is going to kick ass. Then it was time to go out for the evening. I met Sarah and Rachel at Joe Sensors and we had dinner and watched the twin’s game and NCAA men’s gymnastics (man are some cuties on the team). We made a liquor store run and on the way Tallis called and I am sure he thought I was wasted when I was talking to him because I was being so crazy haha me being crazy what?! Sarah, Rachel and I had a blast just chilling and at about one thirty, Sarah and I decided to go on a walk around the block and found a fence (?) and took a picture with it and damn how the hell did I get my leg up that high in the picture. Then we found a huge tree in someone’s yard and went and sat against it. While we were sitting there, there were three guys across the street and one guy carrying pizza’s fell and we yelled across the street to ask if he was okay. One of his friends ran across 4th to figure out what we were saying and then the other guys came over too. The guy who fell’s hand was disgusting and bloody and we offered bandages, but he didn’t want any. I started to walk back to the house and Sarah kept talking to the guys and somehow we invited them up for drinks and some water. We weren’t even thinking that something bad could happen we just want to help these guys. Their names were Scott and Evan. Evan left earlier than Scott and it turns out that Scott’s aunt was my English teacher in high school (talk about small world). He was a person who worked at like a Wikipedia type place… I have no idea all I know is that nights with Sarah always end up crazy.

Saturday- We woke up to birds chirping and lordy was I hung over. We talked to Kelley and looked over the drunken posts we did (Johanna is now J-town just letting everyone know) oh and Zeke we asked you how do prono businesses make it in California and we expect the answer. The rest of the day I tried to study, but at one point I ended up going up to take a nap and man I passed out hard core. And that brings me to know.

Sunday- Tomorrow I need to study, but am meeting Kari at Carlson to work on a project.

This week I have two midterms, a paper, and a presentation, so it should be interesting and I think I am going to go out with the guy again. I don’t really know where that could be going, but I don’t know what I want or anything. I just wish that I could know what was going to happen and I wish that it was freaking summer because I am freezing right now!
Have a good week you all!

Finally a good time

Hey guys another week is down and jezz are things crazy here!! So I have had a really good weekend so far partying and having a ball. Alright here is my week.

Monday- well it was back to class and hard to wake up, but I got a call back from my interview the week before and I was offered the internship, so that’s exciting. Jessie and Dan came over and we hung out and watched old videos from high school that a group of us made in Wisconsin dells and it may be a bit too close to soft porn, so we had a laugh and then watched The Hills and talked about Iraq.

Tuesday- hmm oh intro to entre started and Kari and I decided the class wont be that bad. Other than that I don’t remember what happened.

Wed- seriously I have had a mind blank this week cuz I can’t remember.

Thursday- Class and during school it was decided that Sarah and I would go to AKPsi at night with Kari and her friend Charlie and other people. So Sarah and I made mac n cheese for dinner and then we made some hurricanes with Rachel and made the Fanta and red wine drink. Once we were ready we went to Grand Marc and had stuff there and then it was off to the frat. But Kari had a creepy friend over for the weekend (crazy story about him he called her on Thursday at 3:30am, they talked till 4:30 and he decided to come to the cities, so he got here at 6:30 in the morning and he is here this weekend to find a girlfriend) and apparently he said something to her about me and so we made up a story that I was complicated with some guy haha. So the party was lame, but we were drunk, so it makes it not as bad. Sarah and I walked back and then made popcorn and penis jell-o, which is green jell-o in her penis mold. There were shenanigans with me wanting to put popcorn in the jell-o and Sarah and John decided to get it out and eat it. Then Sarah and I made ourselves stay up and watch a Friends episode and we barely made it.

Friday- So woke up at Sarah’s and headed back to my house. Got home and took a nap, then Tallis called to go over Stats and then I was up, so I got ready and went and handed in my Stats. Then I babysat for only one of the girls. We biked around the neighborhood and played at the park and built a fort. We also had a conversation about ducks and sea gulls and she clearly told me that ducks are not sea gulls and sea gulls are not ducks. Came home had dinner and then get ready for a hot night out and holy crap I wish I could always have that much fun! Went over to Sarah’s and then Rachel, her, John and I went to Applebee’s in Roseville and got half pricers and Sarah and I had to watch Rachel and John order drinks and enjoy them. Then when we got back we made drinks and got ready. We were looking pretty sexy according to John and left to go to triangle. There were a ton of really nice guys there and I snagged one who was super tall and cute and a packer fan from Madison. He played on my team against Sarah and his friend for beer pong and we chatted it up, so we will see defiantly enjoyed the night of dancing and being in the company of a nice and cute guy. After the party Sarah and I went back with John and Rachel and Sarah and I facebooked afterwards, so sorry to anyone who got a weird wall post, but laugh at it okay. So then she passed out and I went to bed too.

Saturday- woke up because they had a freaking showing on their apartment at nine am and their landlord didn’t tell them. So we were pissed and up, so Sarah, Rachel, John and I went to Maria’s Café for breakfast, they had the best pancakes blueberry my favorite. Then I went home to find Sara cleaning, so I joined and we hard-core cleaned our apartment like it looks like someone is going to tour. Then a lady from the Republican Party came over and we chatted with her and had a good time and now we are procrastinating by organizing our kitchen. Oh and the guy from last night sent me a message on facebook that he wants to hang out sometime when we aren’t drunk and I am going to go to a party at his house next weekend. Tonight I need to take it a bit easy, so Sara and I are making grilled chicken Caesar salads for dinner and Jessie is on her way with Alexis!
Alright guys, I cant sit still any longer….have a good week and I miss you guys. Hope everyone is doing well. Sorry this isn’t as in depth… I’ll give the whole story on skype

Sea Gulls are Ducks

Hey guys what a week this has been! I have been in the warm sun all week long, right now I am writing this while on the plane from SFO to MSP. This is going to be long, sorry guys its been a busy week.

Anyways here is what my week has been.

Sunday: My dad and I went shoe shopping to find shoes that fit with my suit (as I am writing this in my head the word shoes is really shoooees and suit is really suuiiit). He and I stopped at shoes pavilion, but didn’t find anything then it was to dress barn, which holy crap cute dresses, I am defiantly going there when I get back to MN I need to go shopping real bad. Then we met my mom who gave me my suit jacket that I left at home. My dad and I had In-n-Out burger for lunch (so good it hit the spot) then went to the mall. I found some cute brown heals and then that was it. I think we had filet mignon for dinner and then I can’t remember anything else.

Monday: It was my interview day, so I straightened my hair because doing it curly I feel doesn’t look professional, then I had to go pick up my suit pants from the tailor then I chilled and then headed out to Dublin for my interview. It was kind of bizarre how everything went on, but oh well its over with. I got a tour of the operations part of the company and holy cow that was sweet, I had to make it seem like I was into marketing, which I am so not for the interview, but seeing the operations part really tickled my fancy. For dinner we had salmon and veggies for dinner and then I can’t remember. Its so funny my parents have totally turned into the upper middle class California of the area that we lived cuz we eat dinner in the dinning room with the china and we don’t eat at the kitchen table anymore. I think it is so funny that we have candles lit for dinner and we sit in the dinning room and listen to Dean Martin over the intercom.

Tuesday- I had my doctors appointment for my knee again and they took x-rays and ordered an MRI. Then I met my mom at the Danville Chamber of Commerce and she wasn’t done yet, so I walked over to a cute little local store and they had a super cute and a bit ridiculous pair of pink high heals that were screaming my name, so I snatched those right up. Then I met mom for lunch at the Peasant and the Pear for lunch and I had one of the best sandwiches ever. Then she and I went over to one of her listings to do the photos for the virtual tour and they had the cutest dogs. This house was awesome it had two master suites, a game room, a wine cellar, a huge kitchen with a warming drawer and a Viking range. Then she and I headed back to Danville to pick up my car and then she and I tried to get a pedicure, but they were busy, so we went home and waited for my dad and then I have no idea what we had for dinner, but I think we oh yeah we went to Campo Di Bocce for dinner, my mom and I met my dad there and we rode in her car with the top down and I got to wear my pretty scarf around my head to stop the wind from messing with my hair. We ate and played bocce ball after dinner and my dad killed my mom and I.

Wed: We headed out to Capitola, Monterey, and Carmel for the day. We had a cultural experience in the car because we turned our GPS lady to have an Australian accent. We hit up Capitola for lunch on the beach and then we walked out on the beach and the dock. Then we got in the car and drove to my favorite place on Earth Monterey where we walked around and noticed the changes since summer. My mom and I went down to the beach to look for sea glass and we found a ton. It was fun running from the waves and seeing seals swimming. We also went to the wharf were we saw seals sleeping and eating and hunting. That was so cool because they were catching fish and throwing the fish in the air to kill them. Then we went to Carmel, another favorite place of mine, where we sat on our beach and waited to watch the sun set. My dad and I walked down to the ocean and skipped rocks in and I seriously have lost my rock skipping ability because I sucked so bad my dad was laughing at me the hole time and he even tried to give me pointers. I almost hit someone with one of my rocks. Then we went back up the hill to chill with my mom and I decided I wanted to roll down the sand dune, so I did a few times and it was so much fun. Then we watched the sun set and decided to go out to dinner at The Hogsbreath, which is the restaurant that Clint Eastwood owns and I had some really good halibut. There was a family from Norway across from us and their son was absolutely hands down one of the most gorgeous guys ever! He had gorgeous skin and was wearing a navy blue sweater, he had dark hard, and a predominant nose that made him even more prestigious looking. My mom also thought that some horns on the wall were canoe paddles and that made my dad and I laugh hysterically. Then it was time to go home.

Thursday- My dad and I went out to lunch in the livery in downtown Danville, then we ran to Costco and the shampoo store. Then I had my MRI. Holy crap we walked into this doctor’s office and it had a plush couch and I have never been in a nicer doctors office. My MRI was on the knee that is messed up. I started freaking out during it though because I had no idea what was going on and I hate that. After that he and I went home and then my mom, my dad, and I went back downtown and got my hair fixed and then we went to Trader Joes and went home. We did catch as catch can for dinner, which means that we all eat whatever we can find, so I had a Trader Joe’s pizza, then we all watched Dan in Real Life, which was an adorable movie! Apparently at 6:30 the night before there were huge earthquakes that I didn’t get to feel, so I was super bummed because apparently they were larger than usual.

Friday- My mom had to work, so my dad and I took the dogs to Half Moon Bay. But before we left we had to do the essential coffee run, which my dad always does with me in the car, he swings in the Starbucks and gets me a coffee without asking me. The beach was super windy, but it was sunny and the wind meant that there were cute surfers there. My dad and I played football on the beach and ran the dogs in the water and essentially just chilled and got sun. At one point cruiser took off down the beach after some horses so I had to sprint after him and only caught up with him because he stopped to smell a dead fish, dogs. My dad and I headed back at about five o’clock and took a different way home that our bladders didn’t agree with, so we ran into a Home Depot and ran through the store for the bathrooms, I am sure we were such a sight. Then for dinner we had homemade chili and then later my mom and I watched some episodes of Frasier.

Saturday- My dad, mom, and I headed to Point Reyes, which is across the Benetia bridge and past Fairfax. We drove past San Quentin Prison and I waved to Scott Peterson and took a picture. We had lunch at a cute little Burrito place in Fairfax then drove out to the park. We drove over the San Andreas Fault, which was super cool because you could tell because of the low area and the water and the weird peak in the land. We took a shuttle bus out to the lighthouse on the point and I guess this is the most treacherous area of coastline in the whole US. We saw a whale and apparently about an hour and a half before some great white sharks attacked a young elephant seal and there was blood all over in the water. My dad and I had fun walking around the lighthouse and in the wind, it was so so so windy I am glad I brought my scarf for my hair. Then we took the bus to Chimney Rock and we did some hiking to see the Sea Lions and the rock, which the rock is seriously the dinkiest rock compared to the cliffs we were on. We took the bus back to our car at the end of the day and had dinner at a local café in Point Reyes that specializes in organic food and seafood. We had some local cheese for an appetizer than after dinner we all split a brownie sundae. Then it was a longer trip back with my mom singing along to Rod Stewart. When we got back I went up to pack and update my ipod with old music like Craig David and Soul Decision.

Sunday- EASTER. Woke up and my dad was surprised I was up already, so while I ate my cereal he went out and hid the eggs in the backyard. He hid 38 eggs in our backyard and that was so fun to do. My dad even wrote things on little white pieces of paper like study hard and one that was super funny was he wrote don’t let the bastards get you down and I think that might be going on the fridge and now it has become a family joke. Thanks to the Zeke and Sam last year, I have had an Easter Egg hunt every Easter and I always will. Although Zeke and Sam’s Easter egg hunt was way harder than my dad’s and I told him so J. After that I showered and got ready and watched the end of tonight’s Rock of Love (Yum Brett Michaels) and then finished packing. My mom took too long to get out of the house, so no coffee. We turned the GPS lady to British English today and that was fun. On the way to the airport Ryan, Sara’s brother called me looking for her, so she and I got a good laugh out of it. Now I am here sitting on the plane about to go in for landing in the Twin Cities.

I had a blast this spring break and some how it went super fast and it was actually better than the one with David last year. I just found out more from my parents that they really didn’t like him at all, my mom actually thinks he is gay, but that’s my mom. They apparently thought he was rude and ungrateful and needy. This time in California I really didn’t miss talking into all hours of the night with some guy, which hasn’t happened in a long time, somehow in CA I am always on the phone with a guy until super late. I am finally coming to terms with the fact that I am going to be single for a while. This is what I want and I think I really need this to find my inner strength because I have always relied on a guy to be on my side and frankly I don’t need that. I mean hey if a guy wants to be with me cool, but I am not going to go for it just because they like me, that’s what I did with David, I didn’t like him before we started dating and I dated him in the beginning because he liked me and that will not happen again. Its great having guys think your cute or whatever, but honestly making the effort for a guy that I don’t think anything of is a waste of time. The next guy I date will be wonderful, I am just waiting for the person to come around and meet me lol. For now I have decided the gym is going to be where my relationship is.

Well I have to shut down my computer, I love and miss all you guys and hope that you are enjoying every moment of this semester and not wishing it away. If you have a wish make it happen. A wish is a goal without a plan, so get a plan and do it. Have a good week!
