this weekend was great. friday night we had a mini party and that was fun to have friends from all over in one place. saturday i spent the afternoon in the city, showing marlena's friend around since she's never been there. saturday night was another party/bbq, more fun times. sunday was a really nice, relaxing day at home, and then a family memorial day dinner. my dad and i took a bike ride, and i must say, i love my new (old) bike. i was about to drive home 40 minutes today just to ride it again but my dad decided it was too hot, and after being outside, i couldnt agree more. i was pretty sweaty after yesterday's ride so i can't even imagine what i would have smelled like today.
i should have gone to the gym today, but, i went shopping instead. oh...the gym was closed today anyway, so i don't feel guilty anymore! i bought 2 new skirts (i finally found a jean skirt that was under $30 that didn't have rhinestones all over it, plus i got it for free for opening a sear's charge card, which i will promptly cancell as soon as i get it in the mail), also a red strappy tank top, and a burgundy shirt and white shirt. i felt pretty guilty about spending the money, but i justified it with 'summer shopping' and 'amazing holiday sales.' since i got the skirt for free, it really wasnt too much money, and everything else was on sale or already cheap.
i have my first math test tomorrow which i'm kinda nervous about, but we're allowed to have one sheet of paper with whatever we want on it to help us, so i think i'll be alright. i have to do alright actually--its too late to drop the course.
also tomorrow i hope to figure out the huge mess that my summer job has become. ugh.
i'm not sure how i feel about living here in elkins park over the summer. right now i miss home and the friends that are there, and honestly i just miss the area. too much stupid stuff has happened around here for me to feel safe, even causing me to have dreams where my car is ruined/broken into/smashed up, as well as getting shot in the stomach. its an experience, and it could ALWAYS be worse, but i must say, i'm a rural girl at heart. and i'm finally 100% ok with that.
