Holiday in Cambodia
So, this has been an interesting week for me. My house flooded a week ago. And then a few days later some guy ran a stop sign and crashed into my car. Thus, I am without a vehicle until it is either fixed for replaced. I've been in a weird mood this week, probably because God has been fucking things up for me recently. But today I've been seeing the brighter side of things and able to function again. As for my Yaris, the collision center said they might not be able to fix it, and if that is the case, they are going to destroy it and pay out the value. If that's the case, I guess I'll be going car shopping again. As of this moment I am leaning towards a Mini Cooper or a Volkswagan GTI. They are both tempting, but I'm more sold on the Mini because of gas mileage and safety.
Today, after I checked status on my car, I played with Deane for a while. And then we went to Michelle's house and ventured off to Viento Y Agua, this coffee shop/gallery off 4th St. Joseph and David Alonzo joined us there also. I loved their Mexican hot chocolate and bagel. The place was comfortable and the people there were pleasant. We were there for like three hours. Mostly conversed. Deane was attempting to design my owl tattoo, but ended up drawing pastel colored penguins. The gallery section had nature themed watercolors. It wasn't that great. Deane and I decided that we would come up with brilliant paintings and installations this summer and submit our work to the gallery owner. It's going to be amazing, I can feel it. Deane wants paint on a bunch of shoes and make the art work relative to events and people in who have shaped our lives, and have them all connect to each other. Also, we wanted to design coffee table tops. It's going to be our summer goal, so hopefully we'll have enough time and inspiration to complete it.
As for moving out, Deane and I want to find a place by the end of July. So, once everything is settled, we're going to throw a fondue/wine party. And it's going to be so much better than Joseph and David Alonzos' house warming party. So much better. Definitely. :) Everything is coming up so quickly and I still need to register for Santa Monica College and get a fucking job out there. Once I get my car back, life we be so much easier. It sucks to depend on people. Even when they insist it's not a problem, I feel like a nuisance. I'm extremely grateful for my friends who have helped me get around this past week.
Another thing, my cousin invited me to go to Cambodia in late July/early August...I think it'd be an eye opening experience, but I'm not sure if I want to go yet. I might get kidnapped and sold as a sex-slave or something worst. I'm still considering it. My aunt said she would pay for my trip...so maybe I should go just for the hell of it. Perhaps it'll be fun?
