double coupons rock
dont you hate it when you think of something during class or for a class that you feel is original thought and that others in the class might not think of and then your teacher goes and says it to everyone. teachers like to spoil my originality. i need a hair cut and want one but i cant get one until after my marathon because i want to cut it short but i have to be able to put it all back in a ponytail. maybe ill just get a trim for now and then cut it short in december. i bought a box of fruit loops for .33 cents. i dont eat them normally but they are good dry and for that price who could say no? its the new 1/3 less sugar kind too. its funny cuz just recently i was reading some website about foods that are vegan that you might not know about and fruit loops was on there, though i already knew. i also bought some veggie deli slices for only $1. damn i am a bargain shopper. |

havent updated since school i dont think. man. not much to say even just thought i should keep this thing updated every so often. working at clarion hotel waitressing which isnt so bad, at least when i am making good money that is. still training for my marathon, ran 13 miles yesterday and also got filmed by delmarva 47 so maybe that will raise me some money cuz i still have a lot to raise. im such a slacker. its only the beginning of july and im kinda ready to go back to school. i know i wouldnt say that once i was there but i just want to be back in that routine. man only one year left, crazy. alright that looks good enough. |

priorities
just noticed i need some new pictures. rachel took my default one a year ago when we met to discuss our trip to new zealand. seems like such a short time ago. i realized something amusing the other day that i wanted to share. i am much more intrigued/turned on by a guy that picks up a piece of litter or pets an animal than one who is "hot" or dresses good or other things. i noticed this when this guy seemed to pick up a piece of trash of the ground that clearly wasnt his, i got all excited and watched to see if thats really what he did. so strange. i think new zealand did something to me, not along the lines of liking the trash picker upper, but i think it has altered my sense of connectedness to other people. or so i am told. hmf. maybe i was always like this... papers suck...so do tests...roar babysitting twice this week! craziness! squiddy colored me another picture, i love her. |

i had things i wanted to write in livejournal while it was temporarily being difficult and not letting me open the site and now i cant remember it all....ill have to ponder on it and get back to you one thing i did want to say was that i think the cicadas are cool. everyone else doesnt want them, but i think its fascinating! 2 weeks left of school, summer is finally here and i get to be here for the whole thing. its weird that like until november its like, i wasnt here last july or august, its like my return home has a continuation. i still miss nz. a lot. going to lou's graduation this weekend, the whole family will be in attendance, should be fun. alright, bed time for me. |

ben asks, ben receives
i realized today that last night i had a dream in which i had a memory. i dont think i can ever recall a dream where i remembered something. like i was on some ride and i had a flashback and memory of being on it before and told whoever was there with me that i remembered it. strange. and like i can see the ride memory in my head but not the ride that took place in the dream cuz i dont think it ever did finish out. hmmm not sure if that all makes sense but i know what i meant to say. taking boating class so i can take our boat out in the summer and tube and stuff. should be fun if i can learn how to drive one. katie is vegetarian again! woohoo!! now i have one on my side at family dinners when PA relatives cant understand the concept and ask if i can eat peanuts cuz they are in the meat group. less than a month of school, thank goodness |

blah blah
it seems when i write something slightly sad i get more comments...i should remember to do that more often! sike. i really just wanted to update and couldnt think of much to say. its not that i think life sucks now or anything, not at all. i do miss new zealand and things have changed at home and now it just feels like im waiting for school to be over so i can start the next part of my life. also i thought it would be fun to use that line cuz its from a movie i like...anyone know what it is??? ill give you a present! of course new zealand isnt mentioned but post collegiate years is substituted. yup. so just about everyone is gone from the oc area. sam and ash in italy, theresa and scott are doing minimester, jen, katie, andy, lee are all back at school, anne is in australia, rachel lives in salisbury now but at least she is still around and i have kevin within 15 minutes driving distance. its crazy that many people arent around. oh well, it doesnt even bother me all that much(not yet at least, havent spent too much time without all of them gone) because i am used to it from being gone for 4 1/2 months. there are lots of things i should be doing around the house anyhow..doubt i will do them. wow i wrote a long entry for me. ok im done now |

NO CAVITIES!!! HELL YEAH! i had a different lady who cleaned my teeth and she liked to talk...luckily she didnt talk while she had her hands in my mouth, i always hate that. why would you ask someone a question while you had your hand in their mouth? DUH. so yeah i was happy i didnt have a cavity, its been awhile that ive visited the dentist and didnt have to come back to be drilled. i just realized i need new picture icons, these ones are old and no fun...i need ones with my new hair cut!!

really?
whoa...i am sitting here watching mtv and i just saw a commercial for the sunday stew. one of the clips had people dressed like maori. i couldnt tell what they were doing, i will have to check out that show and see if they are trying to imitate them or something. speaking of maori, i watched whale rider last night at rachels house. i liked it. i dont know if other people would appreciate it as much because they havent been to new zealand but i thought it was good, very serious though. i have a dentist appointment tomorrow...eeeeh. im crossing my fingers i dont have a cavity, but thats very doubtful. i always have one because of the way my teeth are and i havent been to the dentist in a year because of being away so i know i have to have one. sigh. its weird being home with no one else here. i dont know what to do with myself all day long, luckily i dont have to deal with many days like this. i did manage to make some seitan that didnt turn out as well as i thought. i ended up with 6 patties and i made some fake chicken soup out of it as well that tastes pretty good. i have tons of stuff to cook in the next 3 weeks, its gonna rock! no one is online and its only 11:30pm. strange. i hate trying to fall asleep when youre restless one more thing...dammit i forgot to watch queer eye for the straight guy...now my day was completely a waste! |

all good things have endings
only been home for about 2 days and today i started feeling like i want to go back to new zealand. i miss it. i miss the people. i miss the way the country is. all i did today was sit around and watch tv. then at night i watched lord of the rings two towers extended edition which just made me miss new zealand from all the scenery. i drove on the left side of the road on the way home..haha in new zealand i would drive on the right to remember what it was like. i still try to put on my turn signal on the right and turn on the wipers instead. that might take a week or so to break that habit. jesse signed on and got right back off a minute ago, that tease. a lot of things tonight reminded me of Garrison and new zealand, it was strange. i need to hang out with rachel and see how she is feeling and have some reminder of new zealand. i feel like i just want to keep traveling and like i dont want to be in one place for so long. maybe all this will wear off.

home again home again jiggitty jig
weird...3 flights and many hours later i am surrounded by familiar sights that arent as strange as i thought they would be. fiji to home was a long ass trip and somehow its almost 12:30pm at night and i havent passed out from like 48 hours of traveling with little sleep. my limbs have been shaking at times though. we didnt go to tapatia cuz we didnt think we were in the right state to enjoy it as it should be, it deserves nothing else. i have managed to go to walmart, eat fake meatballs, lots of random goodies, diet vanilla pepsi, see my new puppy and spend some time with Theresa! good times. still so weird that the last almost 5 months i have been away...i cant even describe it. i sure am going to miss new zealand and everyone. good thing garrison and jesse live so close! bed time for me i guess p.s. my mom and i bought cheap shampoo and conditioner at walmart...could i ask for more on my first day back?

wellington: the windy city
wellington was pretty cool...kinda makes me wish i had gone to school down there instead. the city was happening with lots of veggie/vegan restaurants and other such fun stores. was probably the coolest city here, well in regards to things to do. had an awesome free museum as well that was too big, we were museumed out by the 4th floor. the punkfest there was a dud. it was freaking cold this weekend too, i thought we were past all that, sooo windy! cold hostels suck and so does waiting for your car to be jumped. spending time with a girl from montana and one from germany is cool though and of course good ole jesse and rachel. going up north on tuesday, yes north = warmer. going to go snorkeling/see giant trees/go to the beach. this will just be a warm up(pun intended) for fiji. man i cant wait. oh yeah we went to an awesome grocery store in wellington too, damn them and all their coolness, makes hamilton seem more lame. countdowns: to my bday! - 12 days to FIJI - 18 days to HOME!!! - 25 days heck yeah!!!
