Finally! I have updated my info. page. I still want to put a picture and maybe change my colors for effects but thats about it. It's amazing how much I've changed in four years, and not updated for that amount of time has let me see that change. funny, i guess i have matured.
My 'lil bro has been in our local newspaper so much this year, it's hilarious. We have all the articles laid out next to his other kagillion achievments and its sweet.
I had a good talk with Eric last night. I miss him a lot. I've been in Oly for the past couple of days and it hasn't been relaxing as I thought it would be coming home. It's just been busy, busy, busy.
I've had the last couple of days to hang out with my brother but we haven't really done anything for bonding. I tell ya, school and computers suck the creativity out of ya to think of anything to do youself. My bro said it's because I don't live here anymore and he doesn't go out much is why we can't think of anything to do. We walked to a park yesterday to throw around a softball and hit a little but then it started to downpoor. Son of a bitch. So inside we went again. Finally we went and rented a movie and got some sundae's to eat. He had never seen "40 Year Old Virgin" so that was a trip. Even though I've seen that movie a bunch of times, its still hilarious.
I was practicing my bass the other day and trying to explain to my family hardcore dancing. That was comical... they all just looked at me with confused faces. I probably didn't explain it that well or give it any justice and it would probably make more sense if they came to a show but whatever. Dancing isn't a huge part of the scene because there is so much more.
This post is going to be really random if you haven't already noticed.
Before I get all sentimental about reflecting on the past I'm going to talk about the chaos and fun I've had leading up to graduations. I just have a shit tone pile of my chest that I need to get off. I feel indifferent about everything. I'm not really happy but I'm not really sad either. I left to come home the day after Eric's graduation and it felt weird to leave right away. It made me reflect on so much stuff, like how I used to get in trouble with cops for making out... college seems to go by so fast, faster than highschool. It's strange (and exciting, especially for my mom) that my bro is the last highschool graduation on Wednesday. The ceromony was really good and the photographs turned out great. Jayme decided to move out the day before that on Tuesday and we all had to help her move in two days. It seems silly that she would move out while still living in Olympia, money wise, but I know she needs to do this for herself. To live on your own and be independent is truely a growing up expereince. I was sort of mad at her for causing more stress to mom and dad but they all take it in stride. I think my mom is feeling more overwelmed than me because everyone one is movine away, including her mother and she's just sad but happy at the same time.
Degressing back to a few weeks earlier was the stress of dead week and finals. I'm fuck'n donee! This was the busiest quarter I have ever had but I worked so hard and it paid off. I'm still stressed from trying to find a car, wanting a job, not seeing Jen or old friends, Eric's graduation (and his wonderful family), Kyle's graduation, parties, family gatherings... I'm just tired of being stressed over little things.
But with that stress comes celebrations. Like when I was done with finals I definitely did some celebrating. I went out Thursday night for bit with my friend Lily and Andrew to say fuck you to our planning class and dance. I got to see a lot of good friends at Shawn's 21 one, which was great because now she can come out and be crazy with us. Before Eric and I were going to go to the Pickford to see a movie called "Brick" that Eric was really excited about, but I guess the last day already happended, so we were pretty bummed. BUt then there was the T.A. show at Fantasia that we headed over to which was a blast. I met one of Andrea's friend Kaitlin who was awesome and so much fun to hang out with, along with Eric and I's friend Alex. We were drink'n it up at Poppe's that I finally got to go to. That place is neat, I can see why its fun to go there. One of these days we've got to have a girl's night out there and drink martini's. We ended up at the Horseshoe late at night with Aaron's crew for Molly's 21 one run too! That place is still sketchy but was a lot more fun with more people.
Before Eric's graduation he'd been working a ton at the record store (which I know he loves) but its been good and bad. Good because we are more excited to see each other but bad because I miss him a ton! It has been giving me a lot of alone time to do shit that I need to do which is nice but I think we are going to have to plan things out more because we have less time together. I don't know... :)
Eric's graduation was awesome. He officially went from undergrad to Alumni. Yes! I was so proud of him and there are some awesome pics on his lj. His family is so wonderfully sweet and funny, I can't get enough of them and they always make me feel loved and a part of theirs.
(Holy shit the after part was fuck'n crazy! Aaron apple offered it have it at his place, the ulitmate party house and it made it a blast. All of his good friends throughout the year showed up. Eric has gotten drunk maybe three times I've known him and this was one of them. Sheesh, that kid inner comedian/cuddle buddy comes out when he's tipsy. I have got to see the photo's that were taken on Aaron A. camera (the whole 200+ of them). The night ended around 3 in the morning with memories of Karaoke, duets, dancing, drunken laughs and hugs. Good times.
My 'lil bros graduation was Wednesday. I was so amazed and proud of him. He's grown into such a (tall) handsome, young man with such a sweet, funny side to him that he's really shown this year. I'm sure he's going to enjoy it at the UW being a freak'n genius and ladies man. Afterwards we took tons of pics and met my both sides of my grandparents for some pie and coffee. I never realized how lucky I was to have both sets still alive and supportive as ever. Kyle had to take off for his senior trip later and is going to tons of gatherings this weekend. He's become so much more open and social. Our party for him is tomorrow on father's day so I'm helping my mom and dad get ready (cooking/cleaning/weeding/mowing). Good thing I'm here (lol) if not for the labor than for the emotional support of this chaotic week.
Well I"m off to look at more cars and then go to "Super Saturday" at Evergreen.
Peace~

P.S. As soon as a get back to B'ham I'm planning a Richmond Sushi outing. There has been much talk but no gett'n together. I think it would be fun.
