Similar to my last update, life is quite busy. I miss sewing greatly and my house is less clean than it should be... but school wise I am doing pretty well. I should have a research/internship in a BioE lab by winter in addition to spending next semester working with Thorin to learn all the machines in Pitt's machine shop (mainly for MechE students....but hey, I'm Biomechanics). I am still on campus for most of the day... miss being home a lot... cannot move out anymore because I simply do not have the money. I can't increase my hours considering I am riding a thin line of grades and monetary gain. I must wait again.
Lighter side! I had planned to devote this last Saturday to be a do nothing day with Thorin. I sincerely had to plan this for a month... haha. We went and cleaned up a block on North Craig Street in Oakland (SA screwed up their day... so it was just us!) followed by picking up his two pitt bulls on the way back to my place. I hid my kitties and made sure to PBs had no kitty poop to eat.... ew.... at it went well! They are incredibly energetic and sweet. Then again, I have had my fair share of them from my sister's idiotic trade of a pit bull for beer. Spent the whole day lounging with an awesome doese of Fight Club. Feel I am really falling in love with him. It may be redundant to say he is different and treats me like I actually do help his world go round. No need for cheesiness right now ;)
My sister Brooke's baby shower was today. She is due on December 11th. Many interesting things attached to this baby. The baby shall be Shelby Mariah Martin. Beautiful (way too girly) baby shower was thrown by Justin's mother. She was quite sweet and bought a lot of stuff for the baby. My mom did not come, I chalk it up to her partly irrational anxiety ... but she would have welcomed... but then again she hates Justin for good reasons... Justin (the dad) is amazingly childish.... but sweet. Reminds me of a pit bull puppy. Brooke have over 9000 onesies. Quite sexy, I should barrow one. When I asked Justin casually about the question of marriage and he told me he had tried to go pock up her ring today discretely. Brooke is the only one with a car (and real job... and college degree...and owns the house... anyway) and could not drop by the mall. A gold band with a large diamond, Justin showed me a envelope with a couple thousand dollars in it. I was touched and annoyed. I must see this situation indifferently.
Back to my homework. Up at 5.
