Actually glad to be single...

While I know that not a lot of people read this, I feel like I need to write in it. Had a really good day today. Peter and I went shopping to get Melanie's anniversary present - a pink Razr, and then he took me out to lunch, Macaroni Grill (so tasty). It's very sweet how much Peter cares for her. Am really looking forward to feeling that way about someone, but now I feel like I have more patience and don't have to freak out about it. It's nice. It's kind of like what Angie and I were talking about during our long trips in the car - maybe it's a good thing we didn't really have significant others while we were making the important decisions that have thus far shaped our lives - like which college to go to, jobs we applied for, summer things, etc, etc, etc. I really do think it is a good thing I was single during the time I was deciding on a college and probably during college - who knows what my grades would have been like otherwise! And when I was deciding about graduate school and all that. Not to say that a boyfriend would have hindered my progress, but I think I would have made different decisions.

Anyway, that's what I've been thinking about.

Hm... not much else going on, bought myself King Kong (hahaha, I know) and plan to buy myself Narnia, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe on Tuesday! That's exciting, didn't even realize it was it was coming out until yesterday when I saw a commercial for it - just goes to show how little tv I've been watching... Yay for that. Although, it's just been replaced by Anime, tv series on DVD (like Firefly), and movies... oh well.

Okay... that's all.

Firefly

So Adora lent me Firefly, what an awesome series. I love the characters, the plot, everything. It's a fantastic show. I can't figure out why they cancelled it after a season. Case in point - a quote "Now don't you stand for that... If someone tries to kill you, you try and kill them right back!" I love it! Well written and wonderful one liners!

Anywho. At home, haven't done anything exciting yet. Hahaha, like I ever do anything exciting at home. I do need to see if I can find Late Victorian Holocausts by Mike Davis at some point. The Student Store didn't have it and Neds was closed. Checked Cody's and Moe's, no luck there either. Although I did finally buy Guns, Germs, and Steel by Jared Diamond. Am looking forward to reading that. Did not bring my physics book home with me, which I suppose I should have done... so that will free up some time to start my new book if I can't find LVH.

New blog... same boring stuff. haha.

Hm...

I can't believe I'm graduating in about six weeks. Totally insane. And then moving on to graduate school. I'm growing up. What's that about?

Trying something new...

I just wanted to try a little something new and move my webjournal over to blogger, because I want everyone to be able to comment on what I write and because Adora's always saying how much better it is than xanga. We'll see how it goes.

And now for a real post...

I'm exhausted. But very happy about the past few days. Went down to visit Adora with Angie. We had so much fun! Went all kinds of places and hung out and saw Thomas. Good times, good times. We went to Santa Monica, Hollywood (Grauman's Chinese Theater and Kodak Theater shopping mall), Disneyland (rode everything we could possibly want to - Space Mountain, the Matterhorn, Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain, etc, etc, etc.), and Balboa Park (Natural History Museum, Museum of Photographic Arts, Japanese Friendship Garden, etc). I have a ton of pics, which at some point I need to post somewhere. We also hung out at Adora's a couple nights with her and a couple of her friends. Watched Fight Club (awesome movie).

And a momentous occasion, my car has reached over 100K miles. So amazing. Went quite a bit passed it on the way home...

Um, that's all I can think of right now. So tired... Hope people like the new journal - haven't quite figured out how to personalize it yet... will figure it out soon...
