Well, its been a while since I last wrote something. I think I am giving up on blogging. I might write something once in awhile but I have moved on to other things. Anyways. I am at school right now and this is the last place I want to be. I spent all vacation with James and it was so hard to leave him this morning. We went to San Diego over break and I got to meet the parents. His mom is the sweetest lady and she taught me how to knit. I don't have that kind of coordination so I think I'll stick with crocheing (sp?). We met up with some of James friends and they really made me feel like I was their friend. James took me to Disneyland on Dec 26 and I was amazed how busy it was. We were there from 10-10 and only managed to go on 5 rides. While we were on Splash Mountain the ride broke down when we were in the "Zippidy do da" room. About 5 logs were jammed and after 20-30 mins of being stuck you could hear people complaining about the music. It was torture I tell you. And then when we were in line for Indiana Jones, that ride broke down. What a waste of 45 mins. All in all though, I had a blast.
The ride home was fun. We made it about 10miles from the Oregon border on I-5 and the road was closed due to flooding. The nearest town was 60 miles back so we had to drive back down to Weed California, and the head 70miles NE to Kalamath Falls Oregon. As soon as we got to Kalamath Falls we had to go 60 miles west to get back on I-5. That 60 miles took us around 5 hours. It was a 2 lane road, through the mountains and chains were required for trucks. The trucks couldnt pull off so they put them on in the middle of the road causing us to go 100 feet and then stop for an hour and a half. As we were waiting it really started to snow and James wanted to go play. I only had flip flops and a light jacket on and I jokingly told him I dressed for San Diego, not the ride home. When we were able to go again, so much snow had accumulated arond the car that when we tried to go, we got stuck. After about 5 mins of spinning out, James decided to reverse a couple feet adn then get enough momentum to go forward again. All in all. A 2 day drive turned into a 3 day drive!
When I was younger, my school took us to a place called "Big 4" ice caves. I remembered them being really neat and it being a fun hike. Well I took James the 1st week of break and there were no caves. It is just walls. And then to get to the caves we had to make our own trails so we would take a step in what we thought was compact snow and our leg would sink to our knee. It wasnt even really snow. It was ice b/c when we got back to the car, our legs were all scratched and bloody. It was a long walk! We really didnt prepare either. We wore tennis shoes, and jeans. It got to be cold....fast!!
I gave Toya a 21st birthday over break. We went to an improv show and then out to a bar. I think she had a fun time. Sorry for getting you sick Toya, I still love ya! Happy Birthday friend!
Robin and I hung out over break. Robin its always soo much fun to hang out with you. We went and saw "Brokeback Mountain" which was absolutely amazing. Not many movies stick with me but this one really did! We also saw "The Producers". I think I will have to see that one again soon! Absolutely hilarious! Hey Robin, "LETS GO BACK IN THE CLOSET"! Ha ha ha.
I got my wisdom teeth pulled yesterday. James wanted to see me before I left so he came over and stayed the night (ooh, scandalous. j/k). Steven (my friend and ride back to school) stayed over too b/c he didn't have a place to stay and my mom cooked tehm a really good dinner. All vacation we had left overs or something that you can nuke in the microwave. But when James and Steven come over, it is a gourmet meal...which I couldnt have! Mom gave me applesauce. Butt head! Just Kidding, I love my mom! But yea, my mouth didn't really swell up and it doesnt really hurt. I am jsut worried about dry socket because I heard that was painful.
I am going to start working out again this quarter! I am excited b/c I gained a bit. My mom and I watched the "Biggest Loser" marathon on Bravo a couple days ago and were inspired. I just want to get back in shape b/c I am so so tired all the time!
I know this was long but thats about all.
