so, this is california, and i should be surfing. but... i've manage to surround myself with some pretty good (newish and oldish mix) of friends that keep me out of the ocean. i mean, i'm YEARNING to surf! but at least i've made it to the beach quite a few times to ride bikes, watch the fireworks (the 4th) and just play in the waves :). plus, i'm trying to conserve money, so i've been going to my neighborhood pool quite often, and play tennis at our little, underfunded court haha.
speaking of those friends. hmmm... at least three of them are really good people (two girls, one boy) for sure. the others are all: 1. jobless (mommy and daddy provide money and cars) 2. drunks (they drink even when they are doing NOTHING) and 3. really really really self involved. but, you've always got to realize, that to have a good time, sometimes you've gotta hang with the people that are only out to have a good time! at least it's a mix of people good and, well, not bad but just not as good as good. and my favorite part: they like to DANSE :). that's something i love to do. cheesy 80's nu wave clubs are our specialty.
as for me, i've just been trying to balance an enjoyable summer, and be as active as possible. i'm also trying to drop a few pounds (vegetarianism makes me pudgy around the edges, even though i'm skinny) and be a little more confident in my image. besides, all the boys i hang out with look like they came from africa, so it's not wonder why i feel chubby. haha.
