Second favorite…

I went garage sale shopping this last weekend, and I found an espresso machine. I wish I had gotten it. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to get that or a regular coffee machine that I can set a timer on (so when I wake up it’s already made). I think that with the espresso machine I could make more Frappucino-like drinks. Who knows… off to Starbucks!
My friend Elena and I did this together for her 18th birthday in 2006. I forgot I had taken ibuprofen earlier that morning for a toothache, and I wound up bleeding quite a bit. Other than that, it wasn’t very painful at all. I got an infection this last Christmas from being extremely ill and blowing my nose so much, so I wound up taking it out. But I miss it so much, that I think I may get another one.
I just finished watching ‘Who Killed the Electric Car?’ and I am now extremely disgusted by the government, oil companies and car companies (as if I weren’t enough already). I wish I could own an EV1, but it sounds as if they’ve been laid to rest. The documentary also stated that American hybrid cars have a less average MPG than the Japanese ones. Good to keep that in mind. I feel horrible and guilty for driving my Toyota Avalon, but the best I can do right now is walk to work, take the bus to school, and essentially do my part. One day I’ll have enough to buy a Hybrid…
I woke up at 7:30am this morning. But I went to bed at 3am, so I don’t think that was exactly what I was hoping for…
Thank god for coffee.
If you want to relax, this is the best kind of vacation you can take. I got on in LA, and we went down to San Diego, Catalina Island, and Mexico. We had the best food! I would love to go again. I’m tired of planning so much for trips and stressing to the point of not enjoying myself.
Ok, so I’ve been to Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Illinois, Utah, Colorado, and Kansas. Most of it was from the road trip I took with my mom and brother this last Spring break. Our destination was Illinois so we could visit mom’s hometown and her dad and step-mom. Oh, and Hawaii! That’s 14/50 (including my home state).
I have a feeling that this is the root of all my problems… until they’re fixed and then I’ll find a new one. But I have made a step into getting them fixed. I made an appointment with the orthodontist for Aug. 2nd. I’m terrified, but I crave to smile without feeling insecure. People take for granted their naturally solid, white teeth (like my brother. wish I had his genes. the luck of the draw, I guess).
If I do well at the photography classes at Cuesta, then I would like to transfer to Brooks Institute of Photography in Santa Barbara. If I decide to pursue Human Services/Social Services, then I will most likely transfer to SFSU, and from there who knows. The thing that has this goal lagging, is the fact that I did horribly this last year. It was my freshman year as a full-time student, and I am addicted to dropping classes. I aimed to do better in the Spring, but I actually wound up doing worse. That is, I had a lot going on, but still… I got 2 F’s and that’s out of the 5 classes that I didn’t drop. Hmmm… I guess I can add that to my list as well.
I just registered for classes at the community college, and I’ll be taking dance lessons! The info says I’ll be learning Cha Cha, Swing, Waltz, and a couple others. Can’t wait!
I want it to be meaningful, so I have a multitude of ideas for tattoos. I told my brother I would get one with him next month when he turns 18.
I want a snowflake on the back of my neck. I want a mermaid cascading down my hip. I want a dove on my back shoulder. I want a tree in the middle of my back. I want a celtic design on my ankle. And I’ve always wanted something on my wrist, but I feel like that might be one I’d regret. I want it for kind of morbid reasons.
I went to the equivalent of the open houses of 4 year colleges of Sem. at sea aboard the Explorer. It is an amazing ship. Extremely luxurious (it has a massage parlor!). I can’t wait to raise my GPA and get my ass on that ship. I heard stories from the alumni there from either Spring 07 or Fall 06 that had Desmond Tutu aboard the ship for their entire ride. And they went to S. Africa with him…. can’t beat that semester but I might as well try.
