I know that my summer break already started, but not until today has it really hit me that I’m free! I haven’t been able to enjoy my break so far because I’ve been so preoccupied with worrying about my grades. All of my teachers got my grades in on time except for one, which was no surprise.. he’s always late when it comes to well, anything. Finally though, three days late, he posted my grade & I got a B!! It’s not that great, but I was expecting a C- sooo yeah I’m pretty satisfied with a B. The rest were A’s (sorry for bragging, but I’m really excited)

So aside from waiting for my grades, my summer’s actually been productive;

☆ I got my permit! (lol & my dad did too). I have to wait for it to come in the mail though. . . so I still can’t open a new bank account for my shop

☆ My sister-in-law and I went job hunting together on Wednesday. I have an interview at the Disney Store! I only applied there and at Lacoste, but I’m going to look for some more jobs on Monday. Wouldn’t it be great to work at the Disney Store though?!

☆ I got some boring school stuff out of the way~ that’s always a relief.

☆ umm.. then played A LOT of Rock Band. haha I guess that’s where the productivity ends

I can’t wait to get a job though! I love not having to stress about money + I really want to take a vacation in California soon

Yeah, that’s my boyfriend

We went to this place Pole Position (lol no, not a strip club!) to hang out with his cousin bcus she’s leaving for boot camp tomorrow. The place was like a go kart speedway I guess. It was hella fun, but I lost.. haha I drive so slow~

Peter won second place. He was beat by a girl (his cousin’s friend)

As for an update on my shop– I pretty much have everything ready to go, but I can’t open it today like I’d hoped. The only thing missing is my bank account for PayPal. I was going to open one over the weekend after I got my driver’s permit, but I failed my permit test!! LAME

So yeah. . . I couldn’t open one bcus I don’t have a valid I.D. My dad & I are going to take our tests together on Wednesday bcus he needs to take a test for his motorcycle permit or something (he’s already failed twice~ guess that’s where I get it from)

Anyway it’s better this way~ I kind of need a break after last week. Exams wiped me out Plus I need to focus on getting a real job. I applied at Starbucks today. I think I would totally love to work there

I apologize for being so incredibly dull, but I desperately need to vent. Alright. . . I just wrote like a page long entry about blah blah blah & boohoohoo, but sounded like a complete drama queen so I just decided to erase it all :) Anyway Peter & I didn’t go out tonight, but hopefully we can find some time to tomorrow. I just found out today that I only weigh 100lbs (I’m 5′10″ by the way) so I want to eat some sushi to fatten me up!

Okayy, well I need remove my contacts. They’re irritating me bcus I just finished crying my eyes out from watching Marley & Me. What a sweet movie.

Firstly~ thank you everyone for your comments about my sickness. I’m all better, woohoo! It feels great to eat again

I just wanted to write very quickly to say hi. Hopefully Peter & I go out tomorrow. I want to eat some sushi! I also need to stop by this little Japanese shop. If we go I’ll be sure to post pictures just to tease you all

Here’s some boring news about school. You can tune out now if you don’t want to read it (I won’t mind~ I know school is lame). So I want to get into the Veterinary program at my school, but it only accepts 20 people per year! & I have to finish all of my prerequisite classes before I apply. I’ll be finished in time to apply so that I’m able to start the program next fall. However I’ve been thinking, “what if I don’t get accepted?” I’ll have to wait an entire year before I can try again! That would SUCK and hopefully that doesn’t happen, but if it does I’ll need a back up plan. guess what my back up is. . . WEB DESIGN! I’d be able to earn a “certificate of achievment” in Graphic Technology - Web Design Emphasis easily within the year that I’m wait to reapply for the vet program. I would just take the year off, but I’d lose my scholarship if I did so whole web design thing would be great. lol maybe then I’d actaully be able to create a layout that’s compatible with Explorer. I really hope I just get  into the vet program right away though! ah~ thinking about school stresses me out

What the hell!? The are like six cops in front of my house I went to apply for a job today (hope I get hired ), but when Peter & I get home our entire street is blocked off by cops! So we had to park so far away, walk home, and when we get to our house COPS EVERYWHERE! I don’t know what happened.. I guess there was a crazy car accident~ there was a girl around my age in handcuffs, a bottle of liquor on top of a smashed up car, and a baby’s stroller. Like I said, I don’t know what happened, but hopefully the pieces don’t fit together the way I think they do .

Las Vegas is a really great place to visit, but to live.. not so much. I really want to get out of here- actually out of the states I have one specific country in mind that I really want to move to, but I’ve done a lot of research on it & apparently people there are very racist (especailly against Asians) Sadly racism is everywhere though, so I’m sure that I could handle it. I’d still rather live there than here.

As naive as it may sound, I wish the world was more like Louis Armstrong saw it to be
