Dear Blogger,

I'm in Cape Cod until this Saturday and I'm having an awesome time. I'm all blonde and tan and as Sam's mom says, "Sunkissed!"
In recent happenings, Alexander moved out and into an apartment in New Jersey to go to school at/teach at Rutger's. It was very strange to watch him leave but it's really exciting, for both him and Kelly. I'm just really going to miss hangin' with them.
My mom also has some excitement going on, she's teaching a class at the college she works at. With only a couple of weeks to prepare both the curriculum and herself, she's also got to send out a booklist, and on top of that she was invited to spend a week in a flat in London the last week of August/First week of September, causing her to miss the first two classes. But it's all no biggie because my mom's the bee's knees and I have no doubt that she'll conquer this without breaking a sweat.
As for me, I'm taking it easy- I come home from the Cape on the 15th, then I have my driving exam the 21st, and fingers crossed that I pass, I'll be driving my GMC Jimmy into my high school parking lot for my first day of junior year on the 31st of August.
I've got a ton of books I want to read, I'm currently still reading Salomé. Not sure what's next after that, but The Glass Menagerie, as well as The Catcher in the Rye (which I might read again) are on my school's summer reading list.

I've been obsessively reblogging posts on Tumblr of cool apartments/bedrooms. I can move up to Alex's room whenever, but I haven't yet because my mom wanted to paint/patch the walls up before we get my furniture up there. It's kind of sad, I feel a bit like I'm encroaching on territory that isn't mine. However at the same time, I feel like it's time to leave the nursery, finally.

Here are some apartment photos I've been obsessed with:

The very last picture looks great!
Good luck in your driving test! They can be a massive pain - I won't even dare tell you how many times I had to take the test. PFFT.

Quick update before bed

I'm typing this up feeling so good. I'm warm and snuggly in my mount holyoke hoodie. Tonight I signed the papers for my deposit and am officially attending the perfect college for me! Things are winding down at school-- feels like I'm inching closer to high school's end with one stupid project deadline at a time. Busting my multigenre out for next monday/tuesday... every day it feels like I learn of another attachment I have to include... Oh well. Trying to decide what to wear to Easter mass this Sunday with my boyfriend's family. (Why don't I own any pastels?!) Played my first match of the tennis season today. (Lost to Amherst hehe no surprises there. But played well! 1-6 to 3-6) Now to read some Survivor before falling ashleeeep! -M

Bridges And Balloons :D

Today, i spray painted my vans again. When i bought them they were black and white checkered. I then spray painted them white, then brown, then green, then one brown and one green, then one white and one brown, now they're both brown. I'm running out of spray paint! I haven't been working on my 10 people project lately, i should be, and diligently at that. Danny came home for the long weekend. I looked at baby pictures. I ate some soup, some PBJs, and drank a lot of cranberry-raspberry juice. I can't wait for Thanksgiving. Maybe, the mom will hook me up with some tofurkey. It was late, and rainy. I was on my Thanksgiving break. I remember the tar smelt good, like it always does after a nice thunderstorm, as i have come to know as the smell of Ozone being produced from lighting. So, i had first given up meat and my mother, being the dear she is, offered to take me to the grocery store to get some necessary items for the week and to buy me some vegetarian delicatessen...

April 7, 2010

I apologize because I feel like I just cyclically keep neglecting my blog and then posting an update and forgetting about it (and you) all over again. Not much has changed recently, that is, except the weather is totally rock solid righteous slammin' groove thing. I've also begun the familiar, however still arduous process of rearranging and reorganizing my room. I forgot how ceremonial and therapeutic I am about this process. Not only is it a change I need, a little change up to signify spring and to keep things dynamic, but I am moving literally about 5 feet up to my brother's bedroom right above mine in August when he and Kelly move to New Jersey so he can attend Rutger's for his phd/masters (which we're all excited/proud of). I'm also typing this blog on his computer because he's using mine to record music for the album Aeroplane is hopefully gonna have out in May! Yay, bro! In the past couple of weeks and most significantly during Easter I have lear...
