I left a picture for you so you don't forget what I look like. Not a good one.. but it was the only one I had lying around the folder that I hadn't used already.. you wouldn't want me to re-post, would you?

I adopted a Stitch. I think I love that stuffed animal. When people manhandle him I have to refrain from saying "You're hurting him." I think it has slipped out once or twice though. Shh.

And today I realized that the relationship with my mother will never change. My sister wanted to go to Disneyland for the later half of the day to get some use out of her annual pass.

Yesterday was my sister's 24th birthday. We went to dinner at a churrascaria... if you love meat and you have some cash, be sure to look that one up. I gave her that dress that she's wearing... the Gap is for everyone. It's so plain and so basic, who couldn't use something from there? P.S., they are having a massive sale right now. Half the store is $19.99. Wow! Okay.

Sometimes you just need a picture, even if it's old.

Well. Jenni's in the hospital because of her heart surgery. Teera, Russ, Paul, and I went to see her today. She looked so sad when we came in but after a while, I think she warmed up to us. "I feel like crap," she said with a faint Jenni smile. I hated seeing Jenni like that, hair ruffled and chest sullen laying in her bed with a thin blanket over her small legs. I made her an origami sailboat and wrote on the white side. The Jenni... kinda like Forrest Gump, remember? Well, I thought it was clever. Poor Jenni. The hospital was pretty nice though. I was born there. I've never gone back there until today. Go on Cedar-Sinai, treat Jenni nicely.
Michelle, ma belle...
I laugh in your face, College Board. I got a 5, yes, me, I got a 5 on the Calculus AB exam. I thought I failed that thing. I left so many free response blank... and I got a 3 on the English Lit/ Comp. Ms. Lang told me she expected a 5 from me on that thing. Sorry Ms. Lang. I love English and all... but it may not be my forté.
Hi. I just wanted to make sure that you know where I am. Don't worry, I'm fine. I went away for a few days. By the time you read this, I will probably be in Montréal. That's right, Canada. Woo woo! Go maples. I am a fan of the French and the French-like, should be fun. And when I come home... yessss! Robert will be 18 years of age and Amélie will be available on DVD. I am done with my packing so I'd better hit the sack. I have to be at LAX at 6 am. Pfft. I'll miss you very much. Bon soir, mon cher.

Rock Collection
See that cute little package that Stitch is holding? I wrapped that yesterday. It comes complete with an origami sailboat. I feel über crafty. Step off, Martha.
When I was in first grade each child was supposed to contribute to our rock collection. This was after the identical collections we'd made in those empty egg cartons. I asked my mom if she had some super rock, hoping my mom would give me something that she had saved for a long time... I don't know why I thought my mother would save some great rock... nobody does that, least of all my mother.
She gave me a piece of marble tile left over from the bathroom floor. I took that thing into class like it was gold. When we had to talk about our rocks and place them into a category I wanted mine to go into "pretty". Instead, it went into "smooth". I don't know why I still remember that.
Mum
My mom came up with five bad reasons not to...
(the siblings and I are very protective of our Disney)
1) the weather is yucky // actually, the weather was a lot cooler today and probably the best day this week to go.
2) she will get sick // ?
3) traffic // it's southern california, that is the reason to stay in suburbia, like that stops anybody.
4) it's only half a day // part of the perk of having a pass. no need to go from open to close.
5) she goes there all the time // oh god. like i need to justify that. never enough!
...Bad reasons. She childishly made up a song AND a dance in hopes that my sister would cancel the thing. You have to give my mom credit for trying... but my sister is 24 years old. It's Disneyland, what else is she going to do? Why does my mom always want us to be at home?
I used to think she wanted me to be unhappy. She just doesn't know how to compromise. The only person that will change when I go to college this fall is me. Yes, I am the last child to leave, but my mom doesn't change, she never changes. I will come home for Winter break and she will still make me come home by 10:30 pm and do anything she can to make me stay home.
How many times have I been grounded forever now? How do I respond to that? (other than laughing and telling her that's ridiculous.) She tries, really she does.
Put on your red shoes and dance the blues.
Jenni's home! She called me this morning but my sister was on the other line and asked her to call back. "You hung up on Jenni? But she's in the hospital." My sister is ruthless. She doesn't care if you just had open heart surgery, she is on the other line! Excuse you. Tonight we are going to see Ferris Bueller's Day Off, even if she has to be wheeled around, goddamnit.
Do you ever listen to music and it seems to be moving far too fast for comfort? I was listening to David Bowie today and for a moment I thought I was going to pass out from David Bowie.
The heat is deathly today. I want to eat popsicles and have a pool party complete with fun noodles and just laze around in the air conditioning... but instead I will sit around in the bathroom or kitchen because the tile is nice and cool.
Bloody Mary Testicles
Yawn. I am grumpy tired. I took a cat nap in front of the telly when I got home and next thing I know, my sister is talking to me in my drowsy stupor. I fell back to sleep, next thing I know my dad is talking to me in my drowsy stupor. I fell asleep yet again only to wake up for a dinner that I wasn't even hungry for. And it wasn't even like they had anything important to say. Can't you see that I'm trying to cat cat cat nap?
The trip to Irvine was uneventful. It was kinda boring and it seemed like I already knew, if I couldn't figure out on my own, most of the things they covered. That and the traffic was tiring. Goddamn rush hour. But Robert came with me (I love that boy) and we went to Dacy and Tony's house after to watch the telly and eat. "If I win, I take the cash... and the respect!" Keanu Reeves 2.0, I love you.
I was just watching a show on the travel channel (aw I love that channel) called "Freaky Foods" and they had a whole segment on rocky mountain oysters... bull testicles! They even showed the Testicle Festival. Now why would you want to go and do a thing like that? Crazy people in the middle... testicles? When did that sound like a good idea? I mean some people like balls in their mouth... that doesn't mean they have to fry it up, dip it in hot sauce and eat it. Oh well. Whatever floats your boat.
I think that I just want to crawl up in a ball (no pun intended) and roll around in my bed after I call my true love. That's all I need right now to feel complete. That, and a bloody mary. Will somebody get this woman a bloody mary for christ's sake?
S.S. Jenni
At first it was kinda quiet and awkward. We were staring at "Can't Hardly Wait" on USA on mute. But after a while Jenni was smiling and cracking jokes. She'll be just fine. After the trip à l'hopitale, we drove to Venice to look up l'hotel. It seemed like a pretty hip joint. As Teera and Paul said, "I'm down." It's got a nice close location to the boardwalk and it isn't nasty or anything. I hope the whole beach trip works out.
I have to give it up to Teera for being such a super-action driver. She cuts lanes like nobody's business and she knows all the shortcuts. She always looks like she knows where she's going. She listens to very eclectic music and has no problem with driving far and away on a whim. Sometimes she isn't paying attention and it's a little bit scary but all in all, she deserves a cookie.
Another week gone by. Tomorrow I'm driving down to Irvine for Academic Advising nice and early. It's nice to have something like that to do. Afterwards I'll feel like I've really got something done. That's a nice feeling. Lately it seems that I've just been laying around. I guess that's what summer's about but... I can only watch so much daytime tv.
