God I need typing lessons! If anybody can recommend something that would be fabulous. Yesterday was my mom's 50th birthday party and it was a hit with everybody. I finally was partially convinced/forced to sing a song I had learned for her called Contigo en La Distancia. I sang it in a hallway where no one could see me and it was broadcast on the DJ's microphone out to the deck where the party was going on. People said it aws awesome, but all I keep thinking about are my mistakes... (sigh) Oh, and I finally found some of the Delhi pics on the computer, but I've yet to manage to send them (sry John). Yeah, a lot of people at the party didn't recognize me and that was a little sad... but one lady said she thought I was a past coworker of her husband, until my mom introduced again. I think it's because black makes me look older or something.Bo and I went to the mall the day before the party to help my Aunt Rosa and Uncle Robert pick out something for Mom, and we also got makeovers at the Origins counter, which was fun. The lady who worked on us was studying to be a child phsycologist, and she was really nice. Also, this is just ranting for no particular reason, but I HATE HILARY DUFF! yep. She's just so annoying, and irritatingly cheerful all the time! ARGH! I don't want to see her face when I'm doing innocent grocery shopping, or getting the mail! Ok.... think I'm done... in other news, I'm starting an art workshop or something with Ms. Baldwin tommorrow, and I signed up too late to be assigned her 2 huge projects, so I hope I'm not screwed over. Haven't relly been sketching too much either (uh oh). I'm staying up late tonight so I can print out my uncle roberto's plane tickets at midnight, but I'd probably be up anyway. Robert and Rosa leave tommorow morning, and while I'm sorry to see them go, I'll be happy to get my serene room back. Bo's color scheme is anti sleep oriented. Still gotta go school shopping soon, and I hope I can have an end of summer party sometime, but I guess we'll see. I don't know when people are available. And I need to get in contact with a few friends I haven't seen this summer, and apologize to one of them that I blew off for a long time. I've been avoiding that for months. I dislike direct confrontation, and initiating it is the hardest kind. Lately I've been worrying a lot about the future, and I keep having thsi weird daydream that I end up practically penniless in a motorhome after going to college and taking classes that were worthless in the real world. I hope I remember to pack my lunch tommorrow. Knowing me, I'll end up eating stale peanut butter crackers (sigh). Adios amigos.
