So the bf and I are going to Duck, NC for a short vacation with my little Calista. I'm actually kind of surprised I'm going because this is normally the kind of thing I would blow off but she literally made it so good I cannot turn it down. Basically her parents own this condo and so we don't have to pay anything to stay there, she already offered to drive so we're just gonna throw in for gas (and share in on the actual driving), and the boy and I get our own room. Sweet? Hell yea. And I don't know if any of you have ever been to the Duck area in NC but its really nice and really beautiful. Honestly, the thing I'm looking forward to the most is getting the hell out of Maryland and just chilling by the beach. I'm not trying to spend crazy money or party my ass off, I just want to escape my life for a few days. And that's exactly what it will be. I can't wait for June 21st to get here!
The main thing that has me doubting this trip is the fact I'm supposed to go to California about 2 weeks after the trip to NC. I'm really excited to go to Cali because I've never been there before and because I get to see Carly (I hope!). But my mom keeps extending the amount of time she wants to stay there for random reasons. I dont know if I can afford to be gone that long. And, no offense to my mother, but Im not exactly sure I want to spend that much time with her. I think I might just lose my mind. But, on the other hand I can just pick up shifts like crazy and try to limit my spending to the bare necessities. I have a good chunk of change in savings if I need it, plus I just got my tax return like everyone else. Im sure I can swing it, but it makes me nervous. On the other hand, Im so happy I actually have plans to go places this summer. I cant hardly express how happy it makes me and do my excitement justice.
Im really excited for this weekend. It's the bfs bday and we're going to see Rent at the Warner theater. Im super excited about that because a) I've never seen Rent...not the movie or the show and b) Miguel Jarquin Moreland is gonna be in it! Hooray! It's kind of surprising to me I havent seen Rent with all the other shows Ive seen before. Ive heard it can drag a little and its intense. Ive also been forewarned I might cry. I cant wait.
Other things on the to do list for the summer include a cookout at the house, trip to King's Dominion, NYC for the weekend, not to mention the trips to NC, and Cali. It reminds me of when I was younger and literally would live out of a suitcase all summer. Having these plans makes me feel like summer is finally here.
Hoorah for Summertime :)
