holy summer
hello july! i have good feelings about you!
first off, i'm getting tattooed on saturday (about a year after my last one! sad face), a rose on my left elbow. i am not usually a wuss about tattoos but i got the idea for this one four years ago and i'm finally ready to face the pain. photos to follow!
greg and i are headed to vancouver for a little trip in three weeks. i'm so very excited--we'll be in town from the 17th to the 21st.
what else has been up around here? i'm over my barista job, but haven't found anything else yet. i'm going back to school full time via distance courses in the fall. my student loan application got approved, hooray! i'm not going to quit my job so this should be interesting. i'm pretty confident that though it will be a lot of work, i will be able to handle it. distance courses are a lot easier than regular classes because there are fewer assignments and you don't have to go to class. i have done distance education before and it sits well for me so that's another reason to be positive.
after a few-months hiatus i'm getting my social life back. i did this rad fashion show last weekend and got on really well with a bunch of the other models. i have been making some new friends & trying to keep up with old friends--but that last part isn't working too well. i asked my mom for advice and she said to just let the old friends go. it's not that easy. i don't want to let them go but i understand sometimes people grow apart and all that junk. i've been putting in a real effort to save it but we'll see how it turns out.
i got the day off work, even though the cafe is open, because it's the day after a holiday and it will probably be dead there! i rarely have days off at home where greg isn't around so it's kind of nice. someone on sg asked me to make another cooking video (not to mention andy, who has told me that like a million times) and the last one i made (haha 3 years ago) was fun to make so that's something i'd like to do today. other plans: taking buzz to the dog park, cleaning the kitchen, doing yoga and watching the latest episode of true blood. i am so hooked on that show.
