last night arlet and i went out.. and at first i was kinda down and didnt want to do anything.. then.. like 10 minutes into it.. we're driving somewhere in la crascenta looking for this place Jo Jo told us about... and out of nowhere we're cracking up and completely forgot that 10 minutes ago we were both down. we were looking for this coffee place.. pigleys or something like that.. and we passed by it like 5 times before we realized which one it was.. but we didnt go in.. we took one look.. laughed.. said that we were going to yell at Jo Jo and drove off towards pasadena.. i mean.. it was a saturday night and the place had like... 4 people.. they were sitting in there all of them apart just studying.. we were like.. yeah.. nice place. lol
anyway we ended up at the equator in pasadena.. it was so full of people it was crazy.. anyway we found this one tiny table right by another table which was full of people.. and we sat and arlet saved the seats while i went in to get us drinks. i come back out and shes in full conversation mode with these guys.. lol i sat down and for the next hour we just sat there talking to these guys (and girl) they were french.. they were really cool. as soon as the guy next to me found out my name he got all excited.. and he almost started talking to me in french and i was like "my name is french but im armenian" and he was like "damn.. that is so cool.. i dont even know anyone in france with that name" anyway... it turned out to be a pretty good night.. arlet and i seem to always have fun no matter what. at first neither one of us wanted to go out.. but we were glad we did cuz if we had stayed home we would have gotten more depressed.
anyway.. i have work at 3 today.. im gonna go in but im gonna mainly stay on the register cuz my foot is still in pain.. i mean i can walk but i cant really run around.. it hurts a lot still. and i dont wanna ask for the day off because one i need the hours.. and two.. i dont want to be home. arlet said something last night that.. made me think about something.. she said "why be depressed about something that in the end was going to be worse for you" she said that if things really do happen for a reason then i should be happy not sad that it happened this way.. that im better off.. and u know what.. she is so fucking right! thinking about it now makes me think that im pretty dumb for getting upset in the first place... i mean.. anyone would have.. its pretty upsetting but.. theres things with this particular situation.. that when i explained it to her.. she was laughing.. she was like "manet.. if i were you ide be so happy! your free from something that so many people wish to let go of.. and it wasnt your choice.. but its even better that way" and i was like.. i wish i had thought of that earlier.. she is so right. sometimes arlet says things that make so much sense.. its like.. i knew we were best friends for a reason.
anyway.. im gonna go get ready now.. i have a few things to do before work. im in a good mood today.. i also got a letter from my friend kat and shes the coolest girl ever.. reading what she had to say made me happy too. sometimes u just know who your real friends are. im glad for mine. :)
