so volleyball at the beach was kinda a bust. I did get to talk to Alexa for a good long while, which was wonderful. I wish both of us had made more of an effort to see each other this summer, but it was great to catch up. it was good to say goodbye to Karl and Andres in person as well. wow, the goodbyes just keep coming and coming. they don't seem real anymore - maybe just because they're to people that aren't my best friends. or maybe it's because of that epiphany I had a couple days ago. either way, it's becoming easier and easier.
just watched House of Sand and Fog and cried for about the last half hour of the film. it was really, really good. such amazing acting! I can't believe I put off watching it since . . . well, back since it was in theaters!
tonight is Amy's birthday celebration, which will be very fun. then I'll return home and watch either Taking Lives or Igby Goes Down. can't decide yet.
all my CDs are organized from the different piles around my room and put into my CD binder. step 1 of 58934676 in getting ready to leave, but hey, I'm getting there. next up: go through all my mixes, decide which ones I absolutely need to take (with the rare exception of one of my own, mostly CDs from other people) and put the songs on the other ones on the computer before it gets dismantled on Sunday night.
