Goodness, I had quite the day yesterday! A LONG, busy day. but enjoyable nonetheless.
The previous day I had decided against going to CHS with jenna and claire because 9:00am just sounded too early, but as chance had it, I was magically awake at 8:30, without an alarm and completely rested, so I texted claire saying I was back in. She picked me up at about nine [she's actually been driving me everywhere, as my geo is uninsured....thanks claire!] and off we went to the institution i vowed never to set foot in again. Our first stop was, of course, band. Mr. Price and his womanly figure amused me just like old times and claire and I tittered on the side of the room. Price offered claire an instrument but she was all "thanks but no thanks." Price pretended i was not there and only made eye contact with claire. I found it ODD. and RUDE.
eventually claire ditched me for some hair appointment and I wandered the depressing halls of CHS alone. I ran into elise, who screamed like a mad woman and hugged me about thirty times, mrs. minato, who apparently still talks too much, and various others who are restricted to the confines of HIGH SCHOOL LIFE. haa. After awhile, I got bored, and just sat on the bench outside the AP bio room and texted tyler who was bitching about being in the DMV for seven hours. boo hoo.
When claire returned, we visited Mr. Skillings who gave us the happiness vs. riches talk, and finally we finished by visiting mr. Kirby.
K: *notices us after like 5 minutes* "oh HEY"
Fro: "...hi"
*we run off*
it was fairly anticlimactic. oh well.
We left campus and claire [my own personal jeeves] dropped me off at ashbrook, since i had arranged to go out to lunch with Olson last week over facebook chat.
It was weird to walk in those freaking automatic doors. It's probably been a good four years since I've been there... Anyway, it was 'grand day' or something, so there were tons of old farts running around being rambunctious. The first person I saw was Mrs. Ippoliti! I had missed that dear lady :) We talked for a bit about school and life a bit, and I bitched about my woes with chemistry. goddamn chemistry. Then i wandered down the hall where I found Mrs. Rybarczeck and Mr. Hunt. I played a round of poker with hunt and some midget middle schoolers and won 6.5 trillion dollars. I went all in. Ashbrook is the big bucks. After the round, i wandered upstairs to find Olson who was entertaining some bitches and hoes. When they left, we chatted for awhile, until hunt came upstairs and bitched about throwing out his back or something. But basically the three of us just talked and reminisced about the good old days, went out to lunch, came back and reminisced some more.
Haaaaa, and we discussed erin, too. Hunt brought her up.
"so is erin still...gothish?"
after I finished laughing hysterically, I tried to explain what erin is like these days, but that is something that is not easily done in words. for me at least.
but honestly mr. hunt, what the fuck. ERIN WAS NEVER GOTH. AT ALL. adults can be so retarded sometimes. :)
But overall, hanging out with the two of them was pretty awesome. they're hilarious and had tons of funny stories to share. including how Char [previous principal] tried to fire mr. Hunt unsuccessfully 3 times. That barnacle of a teacher.
Around 4 I walked over to Jeeve's house, who drove me home... however I would back over there later that night. I JUST CAN'T STAY AWAY. We were going to watch "Up!" but we never got around to it.
and now it is beautiful thonksgiving. It has been raining all day. Lots of cooking and sleeping, and even a little bit of homework!
I'm thonkfull for my friends and family.
LEFTOVER TURKEY SANDWICHES! HOORAH!

But my good friends is all I need...
Oh my god, I am finally back home. I thought it would never come.
I landed in portland around 3 or so, and my mom brought be back by five, where i wanted NOTHING more than a shower or a nap, but noooo. For it was turkey day. [ha.... that was also the poast that talked about my first awkward date with kyle. EPIC LOWL TIMES A MILLION.] So off me and my dad went to Freddie's where we bought our groceries, and then were awarded a free 17lb turkey.
UNFORTUNATELY. My mother doesn't know the rule about cleaning the oven [oven rule: don't ever clean the oven], so she pressed the self cleaning button and now its broken. so uh, we're going to have a hell of a time cooking that goddamn bird. we'll see how that goes.
Right, anyways, when we got home from the store we had a pitch black dinner ["it's mood lighting, claire!"] and then we watched a movie and i fell asleep on mom. I was in bed and barely conscious enough to text at about 11:00. then jenna drunk dialed me and woke me up, but I didnt answer because it was a drunk dial.
the next day... I woke up at 10:00am. I haven't had that much sleep in a good month and a half. it. was. awesome.
Claire and i texted and made plans to meet at noon for some magical new morning bakery goodness :)
she came to my house to pick me up [i'm technically carless :( ] AND I GAVE HER A BEST FRIEND HUG I DID, I DID!
So claire and I had ourselves a fantastic lunch. We had pumpkin pie, and i ordered a eggnog latte, because they're the best fucking things EVER. we chatted and giggles and loved and just overall had an amazing time. It was like we had never left! after our little date, we paid erin's parents and cooper a visit and then cleaned my house [that my mother had oh so courteously left a mess for me].
then my love went home. BUT WE'RE GETTING SUSHI TOMORROW YAY. :)
But as for now i feel fat [MY OWN MOM CALLED ME FAT] so im going on a run. yes i know it's midnight. no i do not care. bye!

Love is an arrow
Sometime last weekend, Evan's computer decided that it was too old and lame to continue working correctly, so his parents gave him theirs that they had just recently bought. It's like claire's I think. Anyways, my boyfriend is a bit of a technophobe and needed some help with transferring shit correctly, so I went over to his house Tuesday afternoon to help a brotha out. I decided to bike over, because I feel kind of guilty making him drive me everywhere. When I walked in the door, however, I noticed John, evan's roommate sitting in the stairwell. John was talking to Evan, and I made brief eye contact with him and noticed that John's eyes were completely bloodshot and unfocused. I'm at Evan's all the freaking time, and I think I had only seen John about 4 times total. He's never there. Anyways, so I went inside and dropped my stuff up and sat on the counter next to evan, who was just kind of listening to John babble incoherently. It was then obvious that John was wasted out of his mind. It was about 4:00pm. Out of John's incoherent babbling, I inferred that he had just been broken up with by his girlfriend of about two years so that his girlfriend could date someone else that she was interested into. ouch. Although the situation was mildy hilarious, because, well, let's face it, Drunkeness is freaking hilarious... It was truly heartbreaking to see someone like this. He kept on saying "FUCK LIFE. I HAVE NO FRIENDS. I HAVE NO ROOMMATES. AND NOW I HAVE NO GIRLFRIEND. I HAVE NO ONE AND IM GOING TO DIE *hic* ALONE"
He claims "He has no roommates" because a little over two months ago, he and evan got into a pretty serious riff and haven't really been on ACTUAL speaking terms since. Before that they were practically best friends; close enough to be brothers.
Eventually John said "well I'm just making it awkward for you two, so-"
"you're not making it awkward, john"
"yesiamimgoingupstairsbyefucklife"
Evan was mildy amused at this point [due to the drunken hilarity aspect], but I could tell he was a little uneasy at the sight of his former best friend in such a state of emotional agony. I, on the other hand was completely mortified. I hadn't really ever seen this side of love firsthand. The part of love that comes after the good part... the world-shattering, soul-crushing bitch that is THE BREAKUP.
After being downstairs for awhile, evan went to check on John upstairs, since there was a fair amount of screaming and crashing around and such going on. Evan came back downstairs with every knife, razor blade, and sharp impliment in the house and said that John had started cutting himself. Holy. Fuck.
I know that someday I'm going to have my heart legitimately broken [knock on wood], and I'm terrified to say the least.
So that was all on tuesday... and now it's friday, and last night Evan and John had a three hour long mantalk about the fight and everything and are back on good terms, which, for some reason, makes me extremely happy. I don't know why, but it does.
And since it's friday now... that means I come home TOMORROW! AHHHH!! I can't wait to see everyone! except... marinna...and erin. :(
Counting down the hours til I get to see your face C:
In other news, I'm kind of a big deal.
I sent in a link to my favorite website, geekologie, and he POSTED IT.
HE FREAKING POSTED SOMETHING I SENT IN!
"Thanks to Claire, who only kills rats that tattle to the cops and then throws their bodies off bridges."
I'm not going to lie. It pretty much made my day.

I'm on my way
I TOOK A RIGHT
I TOOK A RIGHT TURN AT DESTINYY
UH HUH
UH HUH
*sticks teeth out and head bobs.*
I freaking love that song [I'm on my way - Proclaimers]. Am I the only one? there's no way I am, because that song is boss.
I figured you all had seen enough of my beautiful face and heard enough of my beautiful chain smoker voice, so I'll type some lame ass blog post out... the hell.
Well basically, all my free time is going to Evan right now, so pretty much anything I post is going to be about him or with him, so sorry about all the monotony.
Actually, that's something I'm kind of worried about. Everyone HATES those girls that get a boyfriend and lose all sight of everything else and just become COMPLETELY absorbed in the relationship. It happens all the time. Girl A and girl B are all yay BFFz woohoo, and then girl A gets a boyfriend and suddenly doesn't have enough for school and girl B, and then girl B either responds by moving on all bummed out, or gets jealous and acts out at girl A. Well I don't really want that happening, so this week, I'm going to make a better effort to keep ties tight here at home with my hall bitches.
I think Kayla's actually getting kind of lonely without me here. I mean, it's pretty nice not having a roommate at times, but I think i am gone more than i should be. SO we've got some fantastic bonding activity planned for this week. because this week new moon comes out. OH GOD. I can't say I'm thrilled, but I'm happy to finally be able to hang out with kayla for a little bit. I would be thrilled to see it [ish], but we're going to the freaking opening night midnight showing. I HATE midnight showing. especially midnight showings for things like harry potter and twilight and things like that. It always seems to bring the crazies out. which means there's going to be a bunch of twihard lunatics dressed up like their favorite characters and lots of crying and blah blah blah. i would so much rather wait a couple weeks and see it in a half empty theater with only horny teenagers making out in the back and old people who can barely hear the movie. It just makes it more enjoyable, you know?
I would honestly have to say the best movie going experience of my life was with claire, a couple days after my birthday when we went to see wanted and we were the ONLY ones in the theater. It was awesome! Or seeing The hangover and Juno with Erin. Erin's an amazing movie buddy. especially since we always end up crying at the same parts. and make fun of each other afterwards for crying. "HAHA, I can't believe you cried at that part, you pansy"
"SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU CRIED TOO"
"LAWL!"
oh good memories.
Okay, well I need to start and finish my homework for my stupid freshman seminar [only three more bloody classes]. So I'm going to finish off with a heaping list of all things I miss most right now
