I went home on Friday!! Ok, I had a hearing to go to on Friday afternoon at four so it definitely messed up my plans to go home. My mom didn't want to come pick me up that late because she was worried about hitting rush hour traffic. But, thankfully, after complaining for a bit and sounding sad, I got her to come pick me up, haha. We didn't even ( Read more... )

So basically I was all ready for bed until I read about an hour ago that Steve Irwin was killed by a stingray. And now I can't sleep ( Read more... )

Classes have started, unfortunately. I guess they haven't been too bad so far, but I still wish they hadn't started yet, haha. My English Seminar might be a little tough in terms of the amount of reading I have to get done. I've had my professor before and I know I can do well in the class; I just don't know how I'll be able to keep up with all of ( Read more... )

Well, I'm back from Hawaii!! I left Saturday night at 10:30 and I landed back in Massachusetts at 5:45 the next evening! Long flights and time changes are no fun. Hawaii was absolutely amazing! It was really nothing like what I expected. Waikiki Beach was such a busy place. Our hotel was right by the ocean, though, so we had a great view. It was ( Read more... )

Tomorrow I'm going to Hawaii!! I'm excited about it. I'll be back on July 30th and I'll make sure to take a ton of pictures. I'm sure I'll have a bunch of stories to tell as well. Talk to you all in ten days... =D

Picture it. My room. This morning. My dad had just gone off to work and my brothers were still asleep. I was dreaming pleasantly about something that I currently forgot about. I hear my mother at my bedside, "Michael, wake up." Feeling startled, I bolted up and gave my mother my full attention. It was 6:20 a.m. afterall. "I need you to take me to ( Read more... )

I don't know what it is about the Fourth of July that inspires crazy things ( Read more... )

So my family ordered Chinese food for dinner tonight and I had the obligatory after-dinner fortune cookie. As some of you may or may not know, I like to keep all of my old fortunes in my wallet (along with all my old movie ticket stubs, haha). Well, I don't think that I'll be keeping this one because it is really weird.
