So, summer's nearly at an end, so I thought I'd do a big comprehensive journal, since, after all, I rarely update these days. Anyway, here it is!

Things I Learned This Summer:

1. Always check the rating on your manga
2. Tadpoles require basic nutrition in order to morph
3. You can never have enough money
4. You can never have a better job than one that is at a game store - getting you discounts at both your store and the bookstore next door
5. Dog treats really aren't for humans
6. Never pick at your sunburns
7. Frosty Paws may be good tasting to your pet, but they taste like stick to me
8. There's nothing quite like a massage
9. Always use your parents money when you can
10. Being broke? That's ok. Just have everyone else pay.
11. Lizard evolution cannot be stopped when Nachte is near
12. Black and white photography: Extra good
13. Thomas Mastrionni really IS looking at your boobs
14. Spike is hot, Vash is the coolest, InuYasha is amazing, and Conan/Jimmy is worth it.
15. Sometimes, breaking the rules is the best way to get anything done
16. Most of the movies really aren't that great
17. Renee, Adriana, and Midnight HP = one fun excursion
18. Even though it's your birthday, you still have to get up early.
19. Never underestimate the power of the darkside - you never know when somethings gonna come out of nowhere and get you
20. Resale shops are a great way to get good stuff and not spemd too much
21. I need to start remembering the basics: Friends' emails, phone #'s, my phone #'s, dates, times, locations...
22. It doesn't matter. You just can't.
23. Sometimes the best solution is just to go away.
24. Some jobs require real shoes
25. Sleep is rather overrrated! Man, do I need some!
26. Party as muc as you can - you never know why you may not be able too.
27. Take advantage of the situation; from sneaking $20 from a parental unit to attending shady music clubs and pretending to flirt to get what you want, it really is worth it.
28. Don't believe the politicians. They just want to be popular
29. Gain weight! No drawbacks! Bigger clothes, bras, etc can all be to your advantage
30. Love. Love your Chris, your friends, your puppies, kittens, and pets you find in the gutter. Love your mom, the waether, your bed, the TV shows you stay up to watch, and the tiredness that so ensues. Love the way you hate your hair, love your bad judgement, love your inabilities, your flaws, and your unfathomable grace. Love your vacations, love your leaking toilets, your shorts tans, scalp sunburns, love your sea watery, sun-dried sand coated and lemon juicy beach appearances, and do it all with no regrets.

Summer's over, but surely the random things I learned this summer can always help out during school. After all, eating during class really is important. Now let's go party while we still can, lost our sanity, and forget what comes tomorrow!

Lots of love,
