the first actual week of summer.
How crazy is this... In less than 365 days myself and most of my best friends will be college freshmen. That thought was pointed out by my father during dinner at Boulder Creek. It was absolutely mind blowing to grasp the idea of being a high school senior. And until today I havent been able to. The last 3 years as an underclassmen have been crazy... all the things I've done, all the things I wished I didnt do and those I wish I did... All the grades, all the tests they all mean nothing now. Its all about right here right now, what I make of myself is in my hands from this day on. I cant put into words how I feel about this summer- as of right now its been amazing so far. To me the summer began on June 7th... The end of something I enjoyed so much... B0CES graduation. It was crazy to think that theres a possibility I would never see any of the best friends I made this year ever again. Though I loved every one in that class in some way or another I knew that it wasnt the end of the world. I made the best friend I could EVER ask god for and thats all that mattered to me. Kathleen Shellhorn- the girl who I knew I'd click with right away when we both realized we were simply retarted when we tried lifting the heaviest furniture when we later realized it had wheels... The fact that every one confused us through out the entire year proved that we were so much alike. By the end of the year I knew this girl would be my brides maid 1O years from now. I've never been so sure of good things in my life until this year. I realized my friends are all I have to fall back on when my world comes crashing down. Jilleigh & I have become so close that I really cant imagine spending one day with out communicating with her some way or another. All the stupid things we've done in the past cant come close to all the memories we have... This summer has been simply amazing and I owe more than 9O% of it to Jilleigh. Another one of my friends that I'd be lost with out is my Weissy. I came into my junior year with the attitude that I ran everything and underclassmen could die. One of those hated sophomores stuck out to me from the beginning... Melissa and I became close because of our boyfriends... We ended up even closer when those boys became our x's. I really cant put into words the love I have for that girl... Shes my favorite JUNIOR by far and shes there for me no matter what. Another reason why I'm loving this summer is the trust my parents have in me. I've screwed up so many times through out high school that its surprising I'm still alive. My parents have made me realize how much they love me and how much they'd do for me. The fact that their letting me drive is so scary to me. I'm actually a really good driver but I'm still amazed that "princess kristina" is on the road. I cant begin to explain how stoked I'm for this summer in particular. Last summer it was like oh I'm 16... big deal- now I'm going to be 17. On July 8th I'm going on a cruise to Bermuda and the Bahamas with Katie and I couldnt be more excited. A week with my crazy b!tch! We get home the 15th and on the 21st I turn 17 and and and... go to Atlantic City with Jilleigh, Weissy & Katie for 2 nights to celebrate my Sweet 17. I cant imagine a better way to waste my time... oh wait I can- working with my mom. I start work tomorrow at 12. I really cant be excited besides for the fact that I'm making 1O$ an hour and I work 4 hours a day, 3 days a week. That means 12O extra $ a week in my pocket! I'm still going to be working at Sizzler a few nights from 5-9 which adds lyk another 1OO$ to my bank account. Okay well I'm sure I've bored my journal enough since no one reads this any more! And I need to go to sleep so I can actually wake up before O2 O clock ...So Happy Summer and I'll update when I have a chance.
