Nice people make for nice days.

So, today at a KFC/A&W in Capitola, there was this super nice lady. I was short on money, and although I didn't tell her that, i think she saw anyway, and instead of charging me 6 bucks for my meal, she charged me only 2.99! When she the total was 3.24, I thought she was hard of hearing, and i said " Oh, i ordered a number three.." and she just smiled at me and said "i know." I love workers who are mother-like, apparently she has like 5 kids, which i found out when her pregnant coworker was sweeping and said that she felt like her baby was going to fall out of her, so she says "Honey, I've had five kids, and trust me, they don't just fall out!"' As bad as eavesdropping is, that was hilarious.

No longer a Braceface.

Yes, my braces are off! Whooooo. Although, I really just waited two years to wear retainers for another six months, which are just as uncomfortable as wearing the actual braces. I also thought that removing the braces was a more, painless process, instead of just yanking the whole thing out with special tools. And, guess what, I found a favorite new Thai place to go to get me some fried banana and coconut ice cream in palo alto.

It has to be said...

DISNEYLAND IS THE MOST MAGICAL PLACE ON EARTH !
I felt like I was six again, waving at Cinderella and Snow White during the Dreams come True Parade... listening to songs i haven't heard in literally years and eating frozen lemonades.

It's this close to August!

Which means, I'm that much closer to getting this braces off! dang. A year and half goes by pretty fast haha.
My finals for calculus were killer, I've racked my brain so much in such a short period of time, after being mentally drained out, and driving around, I went home and I slept for 4 hours. T

Then yesterday, Jerome picked up me and my brother and took us to Wendy's, then Target ( 10 gluesticks for $1 ! ) and I finally finished that Keira Knightley frame I've been working on! Went to Ryans, then to Boston Market for a Roasted Turkey Kids Meal, then back to Ryans, then Oakridge for a nice pair of earrings.

Fell asleep after eating MOCHA ALMOND FUDGE.
I keep getting unhealthier, every freakin' day. oh well.

I love how he reads my blogposts the moment they're published.

I hung out with Millie :)
I love Millie.
I love Target.
I love new clothes.

I hate math.
I hate 104 degree weather.
I hate, even more, that I don't have A/C.
I hate losing at the slapping game.

"THROW IT AWAY"

Today, Jerome and I went to Grosbeck, and ate taco bell, drew trees, played with water colors, and had a few laughs.
WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY :)

Ikea frequent buyer card?

So, my mom's on a HGTV hitch, and room is officially ikea-ed out. But i really like it, and can you belive this
i have different sets of lamp shades to match different sets of sheets. She's lost it, really. haha THANKS MOM!

Yesterday, was Kyle's birthday, where i had some STEAK and shrimp hahaha.
It only took an hour at Walmart, and a bazillion differen't mind changes later to pick a perfect present. haha
"It's a barbie!""
"i don't want it!"
I miss having an astro jump at my party, even the flipping over because everyone wants to be "king of the hill"

On a quick note: losing your remote SUCKS.

And i stalked glennie at nordstrom :)

A number alpha such that ... yada yada.

Math, sucks, even more than before, if that is possible; but I actually think that I did well on my test today. Horray for Chapter Four!

But, after hanging out with Jerome for awhile, I came home to a wonderful surprise: my mom went back to Ikea while I was at school and bought me the sheets I wanted, as well as a hanger for all my belts, and a lamp: very cool.

Amanda, " PARTY IN THE CAR! PARTY IN THE CAR!" love it.

The week's been chill, but very good to me. I spent the weekend with my little cousins and Jerome, who came with me to take my little brother and seven year old cousin Sam to watch Pirates of the Carribean. He was so excited, it was soooo cute! " I told my mom that i'm going to watch Pirates 2 and she said she's jealous! I want to be the first one there!" haha, and Sophie his little sister, discovered that her favorite pink blanket can double as a "Super Sophie" cape. cute kids. After the cousin-bonding bonanza i had some quality time with Ryan and Jerome playing Scattergories at Tapioca Express and shining light on the crush on Sandy. haha, Sandy. We left the place, only to find people giving us weird looks as we drove away, and finally some lady yelled out on the over pass " YOUR ROOF!" pointing up. Genius. Jerome left the Scattergories box on the top of the car, and pieces were flying out; but luckily after an adventurous "hunt" all pieces were recovered. And then, more quality time, but with John and Niles, at Denny's, even though I know absolutly nothing about Starcraft and couldn't contribute much to the dispute over which thingwas stronger or faster than the other thing or give out any secret advice. Although, i'm not sure if that's a bad thing. By the way, I won at Scattergories :) Despite all the other fun, summer school is killing me, but the company of Amanda, Christine, and Linda is definitly helping. So are all those study trips to starbucks, and toasted bagels. Not to mention the fact that summer school is the reason why i can't go to yearbook camp. I KNOW, bummer. I miss Millie.
