The best things in life start with DDs.

4/20/09 was a good day for me. Not because everyone smokes out, which was not what I did, but I had an interview with the Humanities Internship Program at 10:30 AM and by 4:00 PM I checked my e-mail and found out I got accepted into the program! Good news there. I spent the rest of the day with Ryan, going to lunch and prop shopping for a movie project that he is doing. After he left, I attempted to study for my Education 137 class. I reviewed my notes and filled out the study guide to the best of my ability. Decided to shower and go to bed at like 1ish? Can’t remember, but I know that I planned on waking up at 6:00 AM so that I could get ready and study more at the library. I got a Jamba Juice and arrived on campus before the library opened up at 7:30. I was able to get the book that I needed from the reserve desk and fill out the rest of my study guide. I felt confident and then I took my midterm at 9:30. I think I did well! ☺ I hung out at the computer lab and had Quiznos for lunch. Went to my Art History class, which lasted for what felt like forever! As soon as I got home I saw packages of the books I ordered and a box for the purse I ordered online! I was happy about the books but not so much for the purse. I packed my clothes and drove back to San Marcos.

The drive was nice. It was sunny and I got home safely. I saw the blue house on the corner. The one I live in or shall I say used to live in. There’s a For Sale sign on the front lawn. Every time I see the white sign, I feel empty. My parents can’t afford the mortgage anymore so we have to sell the house. No one was home except my bunny Churro. I texted my brother John and asked him where everyone was. He was out with my friends, but he didn’t know were my parents were. My mom’s car was parked in the front, but I didn’t bother to call her cell. I watched Bizarre Foods and fell asleep.

I woke up to Andrew Zimmerman in India and my left arm was hanging off the side of the couch. It was so dead asleep that I didn’t feel the numbness. Even when I used my right arm to bring my left arm on the couch, I could not feel my own fingers touch my arm. I had a pounding headache and I concluded that the lack of blood circulation caused my headache. Jessica came to pick me up for our GNO- Girl’s Night Out! We had to stop by Rubio’s where she forgot her wallet and phone earlier in the day and thank goodness it was still there! We went to Starbucks and I got some coffee because I thought it might help with my grogginess and headache.

The whole reason why I came back to San Marcos was for the Dan Deacon show at UCSD. We got to Hillcrest and picked up the reluctant Alanna from her house. I was convinced she was going to have a good time, whether she liked it or not. We went to campus and she was excited to show us around. We withdrew money from the ATMs and went to the Che Café to check at what time Dan Deacon was performing-11:45 PM. We headed to the Pub where Alanna and I got beers. Jessica doesn’t turn 21 until next month but she helped me with my pint. After we finished our “brewskies,” we went to the library to explore the 8th floor. Alanna had never been up there so we checked it out. It was a quiet study zone, but I don’t think we were so quiet...We left and took some random pictures with the Dr. Seuss statue outside the library. After that we walked around a bit to kill time and ten headed back to the Che around 11. Just in time. The crowd was much smaller than at UCI. We basically danced and bounced around the entire night. It was uber fun! I saw someone from UCI, what a coincidence, but I didn't say "hi" because I felt awkward doing so. Alanna really enjoyed herself and Jessica and I were glad. It was a great show.

The drove home was lovely. I enjoy spending time with my girlies. As soon as I got home, I hopped in the shower and decided to write about today. I don’t have a bed at my parent’s house anymore because it got moved to my sister’s. Despite the amazing things that have been happening to me, I am sad that the house is for sale. It sucks. I’m not embarrassed or ashamed, just really down about. But I have been trying to stay focused and surround myself around good company. I think it’s working! I’m going to sleep on the couch tonight. My brother is sleeping on the longer couch (like usual) even though he still has a bed. Its exactly 3:55 AM and I am still awake. Did I mention I had coffee and a part of a coffee cake for dinner? In addition to my beer of course. I think that’s why I’m awake too. I think I’m done so I’m going to sleep now. I just wanted my hair to dry a bit more. I think it’s fine now. Good night! Here’s some pictures of the night!
