End of show!

So the show ended this weekend. I had SO much fun, though I can't say I am not a bit happy to have a break now. After the show on Saturday night, we had a little fun before packing everything up...for instance, i put my prego suit on one last time... we took some pics just for fun!


























I am auditioning for another show today. Seussical. Should be fun if i get in i think. I guess I just like being crazy busy!
p.s. I am on the fifth HP book now. It just keeps getting better!
p.p.s. I have a lot of homework to do for the Credentialing program
p.p.p.s. I am very distracted
p.p.p.p.s. I hate that you just keep adding p's and never s's. It's silly!!
p.p.p.p.p.s. I love Thanksgiving and it is coming very soon!

So, this was opening weekend for the play The Diary of Anne Frank. It actually went very well. I was a little nervous, I'm not gonna lie. I think it's worth seeing. Here is a picture of us girls in our slips. Really, they are the only ones that you ever see in slips because they all change on stage. Mine is really a pregnant suit. That's right, I'm pregnant! (in the play, that is!!) Don't mind the bright pink belly and the nice boob pads...its all part of the effect. Don't worry, you don't see either when I actually have my costume on top! If you wanna come, tickets are on sale for $5 in CAB and we show Fri/Sat at 8pm and Sat at 2pm also! Hope to see you there!!!

So I have a new obsession, called Harry Potter. I am only in the third book currently, but have been completely sucked in. I'm a nerd. I have taken some quizzes lately and have determined that I would be in Hufflepuff, I would play Keeper in quiddich, if i were a teacher, I would be Flittwick, and I am most like Ginny...and that's not just because my boyfriend has a book crush on her either... look, I took two, and they both said Ginny. Wow, I have reached a new level of Nerd.
But on a lighter note, I have spent some quality time with my friends lately. I haven't seen Kim, or Melissa in like 2 years, but I'm working on it. I miss these people. Well, I have some homework for grad school to do...Disneyland tonight...i love having an annual pass!

celebrate independance

Happy 230th birthday USA! Yesterday was Independance day...one of my favorite holidays. and i must admit, yesterday was probably my favorite of all 4th of July celebrations I have had. It was a very relaxing day. I basically sucked it up at phase 10, but it was fun, nonetheless. I spent the day with some great people in a beautiful place. This is where we watched the fireworks. Needless to say, we had a fantastic view. That's Big Bear Lake for all of you non-so cal kids. Plus I got to be with some of my besties. This is me with my girls Sarah and Lindsey. I missed their beautiful faces, both of which have been to the Istanbul. It was really nice to share stories and talk about familiar loved places with them. *BESIKTAS!!*

Possibly one of the most eventful parts of the evening, other than getting my butt kicked in phase 10, was when Sarah decided to stand on the cooler and be the Statue of Liberty while the rest of us (about 30) decided to sing a patriotic medley at the top of our voices. It was quite humerous, I'm not gonna lie. All in all, a very good day. Only thing that would have made it perfect...DONDURMA....actually, there were a couple of other things too i suppose, but good day still. This is me procrastinating on filling out applications. I hate applications. I hate answering stupid questions. I hate being bored. I get to go try on my bridesmaid dress for janelle's wedding now. She gets married this saturday...out of control. and thus begins the weekends of weddings...for some reason, going to weddings always makes me not want to get married...aren't they supposed to do the opposite?!? Ok, well, back to procrastinating in some other way. Peace out.

So, since I have made so many friends from different parts of the world, I thought I would write a little blog about my daily life...kinda. Actually, I thought I would just put up a few pics about my surroundings. The first is my school. The second, my favorite part of campus and the third picture is Petunia, my car. This is me missing Northern California...kinda wishing I was going home sooner. Kinda wish I were back in Istanbul. Kinda don't know what I want.

So an entire semester has rolled by without a post, so i thought i would add one quickly. My roommates come home next week and I am gonna pee myself i am so excited!! I have a boyfriend...so thats wierd and wonderful. here are 2 pics of us at the Grand Canyon! He's so cute, isn't he?? Well, I'm procrastinating, so i am gonna go back to work!

Josephus

So I bet all of you are asking yourself, who could this Josephus character be?! Well, he is our apartments mouse. No, no, no, we did not buy or even want this mouse, he came to us. Yes, we have a sick mouse in our apartment, hiding somewhere behind or under the refrigerator and the stove. Katie was the first to spot him scurry across the floor yesterday morning. Then, Miss Clay was the lucky one who got to hear him clammer around in our stuff.

For those of you who don't know, I have a harsh way of dealing with these little pests. So last night, shannon and I decided to poison some peanutbutter and put it out for Josephus. We added some amoxicillan and stuff that said "Do not eat" to the peanutbutter and mixed it up. there was some missing this morning, so we might have killed him. If thats the case, our kitchen is going to start smelling really bad. So anyways, that was adventure number one with the new roommates...well, just shannon really. Katie isnt new...

Speaking of roommates, I miss mine. It is a strange thing to go from living with my bestest friends in the world to...well, not. I like adjustment though, makes you stronger. Thats about all I have to say for now. I am going to go see if i can't find Josephus. But first, here are some pictures. This was taken before linds left at our favorite place: Jamba Juice!!!

The new apartment layout. I am on the bottom bed. I kinda like the new arrangement, at least for this living situation!
