She sells sea shells....

So i felt like my summer vacation was wasted this year...i did practically nothing of interest from may to the end of July. Now i find myself wishing that i had some time to do nothing of interest. last Monday i left for Shamokin with Catherine. we weren't supposed to leave until Tuesday but she decided she needed to go right away. we were supposed to come back on Thursday but she decided she wanted to stay until Friday morning. Friday afternoon i left to go stay with my former roommates for the weekend. came home Sunday afternoon and left again on Monday to come down the shore. but only until Thursday morning because  Thursday afternoon i leave to go camping with Bridget and bill until next Tuesday. I miss my bed. and my puppy who probably thinks I've abandoned him for life.

Right now I'm sitting on the deck of the shore house enjoying the breeze....not enjoying the trash truck that just pulled up. I'm not much of a beach person so i might stay here while everyone else goes. The beach is hot, dirty and covered with children I've never met. i don't enjoy strange children. (oh my god this trash truck smells) Nor do i enjoy heat or dirt. obviously the beach is not the place for me. I prefer the nightlife activities of the shore. The boardwalk, shopping in stone harbor...stuff like that.

I'm now being covered in sunscreen against my will. sunscreen is another thing i dislike.

Ok I'm done complaining.

off to relax.

Still here!

Reason I have not posted in a thousand years....
A. was lazy
B. forgot i had a blog
C. am just that boring of a person
D. all of the above

The answer is D.

I went to Delaware for a week to visit my BFF (or as we say "bb"), Megan. She's living down there for the summer and working at a day care. It was a good time. My sister and my mom were actually there for the first weekend for my nephew's baseball tournament but due to some miscommunication on my mom's part, I did not get to see them or the baseball game. Anyway, i hitched a ride down there with Megan's mom and brother and of course got lost on the way, but we made it and all was well.
Among the activities we engaged ourselves in were: mini-golf (I won by a point), Midnight opening of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (sucked), boardwalk "date night" (walks on the beach, photobooths, ice cream, and shopping), and general goofy girl stuff (self explanatory). We stayed in a farmy sort of area, complete with chicken processing plant, but spent a lot of time in Rehoboth. I haven't been there in I don't know how long but it was nothing like (the very limited amount) I remembered. The only thing I remember very clearly was being on the beach late at night with maybe two other people throwing glow sticks around in the dark. When we went on the beach on our boardwalk night we saw people doing that exact thing and I got excited and looked at Megan and yelled "They're doing my DREAM!" She thought this was very funny but I was being serious. I was a little jealous of those people.
I was surprised that we made it to almost the very end of the week without me pulling my hair out because with any of my friends that's what usually happens. But overall the week was a success and we even came up with a few new catch phrases, as usual.

Moving on...

I saw Green Day with Anna about a week ago. Very awesome. Best concert I've been to in a long time. Until tomorrow night when I see Billy Joel and Elton John :) if they don't cancel, that is. In which case I'll be sad for a long time.
And as usual, my plans are not without drama. It was supposed to be me, my mom, and my 2 cousins. I thought the concert was Friday but its Thursday so when I explained my mistake it turned out that Catherine had accepted another offer to go to the same show thinking she could go Thursday and Friday (even though the second show is on Saturday, not Friday) and has decided to go with her friend instead of us. Now Bridget is selling the ticket. Even though this is my fault I'm still kinda sad. And now my mom is blowing it all out of proportion, which will most likely result in everyone being mad at me. :(

School starts soonish. Still no license or car. Bad news, friends. Oh well. Things usually work out. I can always figure out some crazy bus route til i can drive.

Ok. I'm sure this post is way too long and way too scattered and confusing so I'll end here.

Later :)

"You know, the one with the Mercedes, swimming pool, and room for a pony."

I almost gave up on this thing. I guess I changed my mind. I haven't done much lately that I'd like to write about. I needed new beads a wire and figured I'd find it cheaper at the Walmart in Shamokin since that's where I got my first bunch a few years ago. So we went to Shamokin this weekend, which was supposed to be an awesome good time but ended up being just me, my mom and the dog cleaning someone else's house.
We finally go to Walmart and I'm so excited to get more supplies only to find out that they have decreased their craft section considerably. I found some wire and some mediocre beads. Took them home and found out that this time instead of getting wire that was too thick, I've got wire that is too thin. Awesome.
Then we went to the Shamokin neighbor's house so my mom could get the down low on the house she may or may not be buying. I hope she does. She really hates her job and wants to just move up there and retire. It a cute house. And if my cousin gets the house next to my uncle and my mom gets this house which shares the backyard with the other two, we will have an awesome trio of mountain houses and a giant back yard and hopefully the in ground pool my cousin wants.

And a pony.

bummer.

my profile picture isn't showing up where it should. this bothers me.
