(no subject)
Umm, I leave for college on the 17th. It still hasn't settled in. Right about now, I'm bracing myself for the longest +/- 12 days of my life. Summer's been relaxing, but it hasn't provided anything in terms of excitement/adventure/personal growth. It's provided some changes, but far from positive ones. Ones I want to write about, but don't feel comfortable sharing since they don't involve me that much. I'll have to get it off my chest eventually.
I had this rediculous idea that I'd go off to college with a vague sense of who I am. Ha. But I did trust an astrology book (The Only Astrology Book You'll Ever Need by Joanna Martine Woolfolk) to put me in a little box. And I think it did a pretty good job at it. I feel like I should be really skeptical of astrology, but it's hard when I fit the description of a Cancerian so well. And I have Leo as a moon sign and I think as a rising, so that explains why, while I'm an introvert, I love attention and can never get enough of the spotlight. After reading the book ,I'm happy to be to be imaginative, intuitive, caring, and loyal. It's also a comfort to know that it might not be my fault that I'm a moody, food-obsessed, untrusting, possessive, nostalgic homebody who can't open up to everyone. Oh, and Cancerians have low self esteem.
So, while everyone else and their dog was getting excited about The Dark Knight, I was freaking out over Mama Mia. And I finally saw it. I won't comment on the quality of the movie, since it kind of descends the confines of "good" and "bad"...it's just something that someone would love and want to watch every day of their life (I mean...) or that they'd hate. Can you guess which category I'd fit into? I think I've found a new movie musical to obsess over. The bizarre casting worked suprisingly well. I want friends like Donna's when I'm older. I found Pierce Brosnan attractive even when I was cracking up at the faces he was making as he sang. If I get married, I want my wedding to be filled with ABBA songs (Not to the point wher it's like Muriel's Wedding, but...okay, maybe I would walk down the aisle to "I Do, I Do, I Do". Don't judge me.)
Ooh, so if you're in Rehoboth Beach any time soon, you should check out Café Solé because it's pretty on the outside, cozy on the inside, and has great food. (I ate sweet potato soup and devilled eggs and brie and apples and...it was a better combination than what you're imagining it o be). And it was nice to be away from the really touristy part of town.
And if you're in Philly, go to Farmicia. They serve great food (a lot of it vegetarian) and use local ingredients. My mom and I sat right by a big window, perfect for people-watching as people walk around Old City. My meal was good (brie and bread again!), but the apple crisp I got was, dare I say...swellegant?
I think I used multiple fonts in this entry accidentally, but then I think I'm hallucinating out of a lack of sleep.
