long time no post


So yeah, it has been a while. But with good reason -- with graduation, work, more work, vacationing, excuses, and yes even more excuses.

May 19, 2006:
I finally graduated.
Did I feel regret that I was finally leaving? No.
Was I sad at all?
Am I now? No. No. NO.

We went to this really expensive place called Gouchos. It was alright but definitely not $35 a plate. We also rode around in a limo bus. It was huge and had a great sound system. It was alright.
Prom sucked -- really bad. Country, rap, r&b. Not exactly my scene.
But I did win $100. That was cool.


This past weekend I made a trek to Pearisburg, VA with a few other members of my family. It was my great aunt and uncle's 50th wedding anniversary. Very calm and very relaxing. They live in the country and they have this nice creek in their back yard with a view of the mountains and everything. It was great. Oh yeah (for all you chicks), I got to go to Mountain Lake as well which is where parts of the old movie Dirty Dancing was filmed. It was beautiful too but the spring from which the lake comes is actually drying up, so the water was pretty low.

This coming Monday is finally my last day at the flower shop. I put in my 2 weeks a couple of weeks ago and now that nightmare is finally coming to an end. It's annoying. I hate it. And it payed crappy so there was nothing holding me back from quitting. Now I work at a restaurant and I love it. I'm a cashier, cook, everything. Plus, I make more and I like my boss. Oh yeah, one of the perks is free food (which is awsome and horrible all rolled into one).

Tonight we tried to take Frenchie to the airport to return home. But apparantly God hates me or I have bad karma or something because he is still here. We got there and found out that his plane was delayed for a couple of hours. So we decide to go kill some time just riding around. After a while we go back only to find out that instead of leaving at 7:30 it will leave at 9:00. Fine? No. Because his plane in Chicago leaves at 9:00. And it was the last one. Thus he was going to be stranded in the airport and he was already a nervous wreck. So my folks brought him back home and they are taking him back to catch a plane at 2 something tomorrow (yeah). I can't go because tomorrow I have to work 12 hours (my last day like that=yeah)



Oh yeah, this weekend I'm off to see The Commodores (the guys that sing Brick House) at Magic Springs (a theme park). It should be fun -- nothing spectacular, but fun.

Okay . . . that was way too long and you probably didn't read it but oh well. It's just a glimpse at my life this past month.
Later.
