summer has been spectacularly lazy so far. i spend much of my time with nonsensical things, like shopping, guitar hero, downloading music, surfing the net, watching dramas, watching tv, sleeping at odd hours, etc. things that i should be doing: reading, drawing, painting, cleaning, and getting my ass on required stuff for fall.
bridget jones time----
weight = 131 lbs. YES!
ice cream consumed = too much.
books read = 3 (kitchen, persuasion, pain: the fifth vital sign)
shopping results = 3 dresses, 2 belts, 1 oxford, 1 pair leggings, 1 pair sandals, 1 pair boots, 1 pair shorts, 1 pair sunglasses. (i think that's it. i think.)
room status = closet and desk area, organized chaos. meaning, i think it's clean. you might not.
in-n-out visits = 4.
temporary body art = 1 (blues clues ducky on hip, BUT! i have unopened batman temporary tattoos, courtesy of anna...)
guitar hero status = trying desperately to pass six and knights of cydonia on hard mode.
stories =
fourth of july was good...i went to katie's house for a BBQ/birthday party for kevin, her boyfriend. i was dreading it...it was the first time i'd see my friends from high school (excluding catherine, she was out of town) this summer, and i was nervous as fuck. but i got there, and i felt kind of silly for worrying so much. conversation was okay, and we went over to my house to do fireworks since katie was worried that the cops would stop them over in monrovia. fireworks were great, as always...who doesn't enjoy being a pyro and watching the neighbors' illegal fireworks? after megan and marlena left around 11ish, katie, kevin and i hung out just talking for a while. it really wasn't bad. apart from katie talking about their wedding. @_@
i bit the bullet and went to visit my old dojo. it was a really strange feeling. michael came with me, to help alleviate some awkwardness...i dunno if it helped, but i was glad he was there. :) shihan robert looked very amused and actually stopped the class to come over and chat. the whole experience, aside from jon trying to get me out on the mat and the constant prodding me about coming back to classes for the summer, was pretty surreal.

i went to huntington beach with tiffany and anna, and we went super early to reserve a pit. later on, a bunch of people i used to hang out with at church came by, and we had a really fun day hanging out, swimming (anna and i got caught in a rip tide by accident...oops...!), watching these guys who were in an open RV just oiling themselves and flexing for girls THE ENTIRE DAY, playing touch football (i was elected team captain, no idea why, but my team won, woo!) and then we had a bonfire and smores. i got utterly sunburnt...i now resemble a raccoon and it totally sucks!! but the good thing is, i definitely got a little tan, so yay for skin cancer! hahaha. oh! these crazy ass people a couple of pits away started jump-roping with a fire jump-rope...it was so painful to watch! and other than the sunburning, it was a really really fun day!
THE DARK KNIGHT-
the lines were unbelievable, but totally worth it!!! lol. my only complaint was that christian bale was completely overshadowed by the villain's characters, most obviously heath ledger! (speaking of christian bale...arrested for assault = WTF????) i have never thought that the joker was anything more than a harmless nuisance of a pussy, but heath ledger's portrayal...it was terrifying. and so so brilliant. i read this article after watching it, they said that his voice was the lovechild of daffy duck, marlon brando, and hannibal lector. spot on! the BEST was when he slammed that guys face onto the pencil. [will put up pics soon]

i was supposed to have a belated birthday party with anna and tiffany (anna's is june 3) and so i went over to anna's, but tiff couldn't make it, so anna and i just had a chill day, swimming, watching tv, pizza, cake and presents, and mall. excellent birthday, i must say!

michael called about a brand new show, so he picked me up and we went to the roxy and it was a really awesome show! it's been so long since i went to a show where no one was being stupid and shoving people. the guys playing (brian bonzo, kevin devine, and jesse lacey) were super nice, and they kept saying how respectful the crowd was, and how grateful they were. they all played with each other, and it was just a really cool experience. we went to canters afterwards, drank a shit ton of coffee, and then met up with joseph and played some rock band, and then we watched michael play metal gear til like, 4 in the morning. i was falling asleep when they dropped me off, but when i got home, i was wide awake, so i went running instead.

anna called me and asked if i wanted to go to a kickback that a guy we went to elementary school was having. so i told my parents i was "sleeping over" at her house, and we went to the party, which ended up as...just a kickback. hahahaha...there was a bonfire, smores, and ice cream. and video games, pool, and darts. and two six packs of bitch beer, for like, 15 people. HAHAHAHA! it was fun anyways, and then we went back to anna's house, and stayed up til 5:30 just talking and talking. we wanted to wake up at 1, but ended up sleeping til 3ish....gahhh....!

that part with the disappearing pencil in the dark knight WAS the best. well, i don't know about "best," but it was an OMG moment. heath ledger was certainly brilliant in his portrayal of the joker. rip, heath ledger~
i'm jealous that you get to go to the california science center. i'm trying to convince someone to go to the pacific science center with me, but no luck yet :( yay for updated blogs!
