Up, up, up

I am in such a good mood right now.
As of this very moment, I feel just genuinely happy.

Jake and I had our 2 years this past Saturday, which could not have been more perfect.
We got up early at 6 am, and an hour later we were in the car on our way to the beach.

We got there at about 9 and unloaded for the beach. We played in the ocean for a bit and then laid out and I fell asleep. Half an hour later I awoke to the feeling of someone watching me, isn't it strange how the human mind works? I looked up, and there was Jake, sun beating down on him, smiling at me. He had a surprise for me, which to my enjoyment, was a can of Arizona green tea, love that stuff.

We then packed up and went to get lunch. We made the mistake of eating at a wannabe Hibachi Japanese restaurant, where we were given mystery soup and salad with mystery, and disgusting, dressing on it. Picking at it for fifteen minutes, pretending we liked it, while we awaited our food, that was an adventure.

Afterwards, we walked around for a bit before leaving to go a few minutes down the road to the movie theatre where we saw The Stepbrothers, which I thought was hilarious. When purchasing the tickets for the rated R movie, I was carded. Finally being able to flash my license that says Hey, I'm seventeen, that's fun. After the movie, we went back to the beach and splashed around before walking up and down the boardwalk, where we took another photo booth picture that I'll hopefully upload tomorrow, and then getting dinner. After dinner we got in the car for the ride home, and called it a day.

Sunday my mom took me out to get things for school. I'm a little embarrassed to admit that I absolutely love back to school shopping. I love getting new notebooks, pencils, pens, highlighters. Very strange, I know. We then went to the mall and I got a few shirts, a skirt, a school bag, and these really cute pair of brown shoes, that I plan on getting in pink as well later on.


This week my brothers baby sitter is closed, resulting in me babysitting all week until:
a) I have to go to work, or
b) My mother comes home at 5 pm.

Today I had off, so when my mom got home I left to go out for the night.
I went to the mall to have them take the sensor off my school bag that they forgot to remove.

Afterwards, I went down the road to Jake's pool to possibly swim, but mostly hang out. He left work a half hour early and I followed him home where Jake, his Dad, and I all hung out. We all went up in the tree house, which I must say, is coming along quite nicely. It looks really great so far, and I'm really excited for the outcome. I cannot wait until fall, bonfires at Jake's house and hanging out in his tree house like I'm ten again, but seriously, it's so neat. We were all joking about instillation being put in, which they were actually considering, and cable, ahahhahahha. Then we all went and jumped on the trampoline together before I had to go. It was a lot of fun actually, I really love his Dad.

Thought I was going to the Jonas Brothers concert today for about 2 hours, only before realizing that the so-called "twenty-five dollar tickets" were just to get INTO the Allentown Fair. Tickets for the show, was a whole different story. And the good seats ranged from $300 to 1,800. Ahahahahhaa, you must be JOKING. Maybe someday I'll see them live. Sadly enough, I'd probably fork over that much money to see them, if I had it, that is. I told Jake I wanted a Jonas Brothers shirt for Christmas. :)

I called Starbucks again today because when I met the manager she failed to call me this past weekend like she said she would. Hopefully after leaving a message and my name again, she'll remember and call me back. Last week I went there with Sarah to get a drink and had a nice conversation with the 2 ladies at the counter, only to find that when I asked to speak with the manager, one of them WAS the manager. She asked for my name and told me she'd call me later on in the week. So fortunately for me, I was able to make a really good first impression upon her, showing her my outgoing side, unintentionally, how awesome. She told me she had been really busy, so I'm sure that's why she hasn't gotten back to me yet. I have faith that I will get this job. I just need to be patient -yet persistent. :)


Have you ever looked at a certain word for too long that suddenly it doesn't look like a word anymore?

Dear Braden by Dany Fujikawa
That song is on the ad for Mary kate and Ashley's line, The Row. I love it.
Although the lyrics aren't very understandable, I guess that's part of what makes it beautiful.
