Excitement and Frustrations...
Mixed emotions on this day. Overall it was good though I guess. Yesterday I got the paperwork filled out online and printed for my passport. I also went to the mall and had one of those infamous nights where I couldn't find anything cute. Everything was a little too casual...I'm more dressy-casual. Nothing seemed to work and the only thing I came away with was a pair of earrings because I had another pair that broke and needed to replace them.
Today I had a lot more going on. For one thing, it was raining...and that dissapointed me quite a bit. I mean since when does it rain in July? The middle of the summer? The rain made it practically impossible for the brick people to finish their work around the edge of the pool (which must be done before the lining goes in). So I'm guessing it will be a week or so before the pool is back to normal, heated, and ready to be used. It sucks...but I guess I just need to suck it up and go use the tanning bed.
So today I found quite a bit that I liked at the Nordstrom's anniversary sale...or should I say presale because that's what me and my mom were allowed to do...I think it's because she has a Nordstrom's card. I owe my mom a little over $200 because she's only paying for $250 of my school clothes this year. It's weird to be shopping for school clothes already. I have 8 weeks left of summer and have barely done any summer shopping it seems. What I need to do is shop for both at the same time...but place more focus on summer until mid-August...or something like that.
Almost forgot to mention that I talked to John last night. I love talking on the phone with him because he always makes me laugh. I can't wait to hang out with him again when I'm back up there for school. I wonder if anything interesting will happen...or if there will purely be a friends vibe there. It's always seemed kind of mixed.
Today I talked to him again because he was on a boring Oceanography field trip. I then got a phone call from someone I didn't want to talk to. The clingy guy I wrote about at the end of the year. He reminds me so much of my ex...he does that same annoying thing in phone conversations where he repeats what you said in response...it's like a constant echo. That and he's not that cute and he's definitely not in possession of that much self-confidence...and I need that in a guy. I'm going to have to reiterate this whole "I just want to be friends" thing before the beginning of the school year, or I'll for sure get bugged and pushed and guilted into hanging out with him or something like that.
So he kept talking and kept me on the phone for 35 minutes...way too long because I had stuff to do. I got talked into unloading the dishwasher, then I had to go get my passport photos taken at Rite Aid, take back cans and bottles (got poured on while putting them into my car), and then workout. So by the time I did all that I ended up home at 8 to eat Burgerville and watch this weird movie called Matchpoint with my parents. Don't see it...it's a weird movie and kind of boring in some parts. Not worth seeing.
Well, tomorrow I have to go down to city hall and turn in my paperwork for my passport, and I should also order that book off of Amazon.com. That and I work 4-9. I probably won't get to write in this again until Saturday night...because my dad's having a party on Friday night and I have ot work 10-4 on Saturday. After my shift on Friday I think I'll be probably meeting my mom somewhere or something for a bit...cuz I can't come back to the house right away, and when I do I have to make sure to sneak in and not interrupt all the fun...it's a boys night party after all. It's something my dad still does to support the mission trip that my sister and I used to go on with our youth group. I think this is the last year of it though.
Anyways, that's it for now....but there'll be more later...as always.
