It's been a long time...
Possibly the best rap lyric I've ever heard is one that I just heard on J.R.'s trackstarz thingy in Mrs. Freak when he says "I'm gonna sprinkle you but not like Dave Chappel's R.Kelly do, that's nasty".... Wow... First of all, to me it's just funny altogether, but it also brings back memories of Boston and my friend Candace who showed me that Dave Chappel video and we sang Pee On You allllllll the time... and the line "This is the remix edition of the song about pissin'"... well my friend Leanne and I got her a graduation cake that said "This is the remix edition of the cake that we pissed in" and the guy who wrote it on the cake was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO confused and thought he messed up and just couldn't read our writing...
I have to say that moving to North Carolina has been a drastic change in my life that I'm not sure I'm satisfied with. This past summer was one of the best summers ever. I hung out with Rita, Lawranne, Caroline, Jessica, and I even hung out with people I hadn't seen since high school: Patricia Morel, Jessi Wasson, Stephen Thorpe, Scott Stanley, Alison Gangl, AJ, Zach.... I became really close with Ashley Stallworth, which was a little odd because I remember him from high school being really nice and fun, but we didn't hang out outside of school. This summer I saw him almost every day and at one point was with him for 72 hours in a row and somehow we didn't get tired of each other. That was fun! I now consider him one of my best friends... We write back and forth and talk online quite a bit (although my AOL had to be uninstalled, so it's been a couple of weeks)...
I saw Joe Riddley again this past summer... Somehow I hadn't seen him since the summer after high school, which I find odd because he is my best male friend in the world. We hung out a LOT and Lawranne, Ricky, and I forced him to go swimming in the lake. He spent my 2 days in Issaquah with me which was great, and I talk to him on the phone a lot still. There's something about our relationship which is so awesome... Not sure how to describe it... so yeah...
I met J.R. this summer. This is kind of odd, but in high school he was almost like a celebrity to me. I remember thinking he was sooooooooo hot, but he was so quiet and I couldn't figure out whether he was an asshole or he was just shy, and of course I was hoping he was just shy which turned out to be the case... Although, once he gets comfortable around you he's not shy AT ALL and he's hilarious and really fun to hang out with. I had a good time with him going to Alki, Bainbridge Island (his first trip on a ferry), Snoqualmie Falls, Salsa dancing,and watching Spanish movies at his house... Those were the days...
By moving to North Carolina I feel like I've possibly missed out on a lot of things that could have happened in Issaquah... But at the same time, things in Issaquah aren't the same anymore at all. Ashley moved to New York, Lawranne moved to Cali, Caroline moved to Western Washington for the most part, Patricia Morel moved to Spokane for school and now she's in FRANCE, JR and Alison and AJ are in Seattle for school, Thorpe is in Pulman, and Joe, although he's still in Seattle, wants to move to Virginia for some reason, Rita is in Rhode Island.... people have all gone their separate ways!!!
Here in NC I've made quite a few good friends, but none of them thus far meet up to the standards set by those friends that I have named within this post. I don't feel close enough to them yet to look to them for any comfort in bad situations, and on weekends we all go to our "homes," so there's not that opportunity really to hang out much after school. Seriously, everyone who goes to school here is from around here, but my friends all live an hour or so from the school and either drive here every day or stay in Greensboro during the week and go to their homes on weekends. There are many occasions when I feel like I really want to go back to Issaquah and have all of my friends still be there... I want to be able to dress up like a goofy prostitute and go harrass Zach at work! I want to go salsa dancing! I want to go see movies with people who aren't related to me! I even want to swim in lake Sammamish and swim over the water where that creepy pipe is and get completely freaked out and scream my head off!!! I miss you people so badly!!!! :kick things:
Most of the time I'm fine with my life here... but I have to be totally honest in the fact that I really miss the one I had this summer... And this coming summer won't be the same at all. It's too hot here to function during the summers, the mosquitos will eat me alive, and our "lake" is NOTHING compared to Lake Sammamish... I must weep...
