So, I got back from my beach vacation this afternoon, and it was just smashing! The motel was pretty decent (at least it had a pool, even though it had no internet), it didn't rain except for some light drizzle, and good times were had, along with good food and CANDY AND ICE CREAM YAY!

It was really cool to go away for a couple of days with a ~~~BOY~~~~! *le gasp* It was quite lovely, actually. We walked the boardwalk a bunch of times, stood on the beach at night, and he helped me win a prize in the arcade. If you follow me on twitter or Tumblr you might have seen that I won 500 tickets on one of the slot machines there, which was fucking awesome and crazy. Although it wasn't quite enough to get anything good, besides a board game or the exact same iPod Nano I already own, so me and Rob played a bunch of Skeeball so I could get a Rorschach bobblehead. Though in retrospect we probably should've just kept doing the slots, since the tickets were worth more points there. Oh well.

All in all, an excellent trip. Next year we might be going down to Wildwood and get a bunch of people to come with us so we can rent a house for a week or something. I've never been there but Rob says it's awesome.

Beach, yo!

HIATUS


So, I'm probably gonna be gone for a few days since our motel room doesn't have wi-fi or any internet access at all. See you all when I get back! <3

Oh, I know why. BECAUSE I CAN BECAUSE IT'S MY VACATION AND I DO WHAT I WANT.



Yep, I'm on my paid vacation right now. I'm not going to the beach with Rob until Sunday, but the parents left for Boston earlier today, and I have the house to myself for two straight days. Of course, the downside to this is when I think I see a cockroach at 2 in the morning and there's no one around so I have to call my mom and let her convince me it's just a beetle. please let it just be a beetle oh god

I was going to bake something but then my dad forbid me from inviting anyone over, and I'm not gonna eat that whole thing all by myself so I'm gonna have to save it for another time, I suppose. :(

Also, I'm pretty pissed off because OF COURSE it's going to be raining while we're there. I swear to God if we wind up spending two days sitting around in a crappy motel room I am going to be. So. Pissed. Like, I don't care about the beach itself; I just want to go on the boardwalk. (in fact I'd be glad to not go on the beach because then I'll have to wear a bathing suit and no thank you)

Also also, update on the dollar of destiny: I used it to buy a scratch-off again and won the dollar back again. I am officially creeped out now.

Vacation plans got changed yet again! Rob's dad said he probably wasn't going to be able to make it up to Massachusetts after all, and since he was our ride we had to think of somewhere else to go. Rob suggested the shore, and I was like, "OMG POINT PLEASANT I HAVEN'T BEEN THERE IN FUCKING FOREVER", so we decided to go there the 7th and 8th of August. I just booked the hotel motel room about an hour ago.

Man, I guess I'm actually an adult now or something. Getting hotel motel rooms by the beach with my boyfriend. Kinda cool.

I'm gonna try to write a full entry on this thingy just to see how hard it is.

So me and Rob were originally going to accompany my parents to Boston in August, but after some calculations I decided it would be too expensive to stay in a hotel in the city. Since Rob doesn't have his full license yet I've been trying to find an affordable hotel outside the city that is near a train or something but it's proving to be too annoying.

But! His dad wants to visit his parents who happen to live in Massachusetts, so I think the best thing to do would be stay there. They live near Cape Cod, and I've never been, so I'm kinda excited to go!

Let's just hope it doesn't all go to shit.

Just a quick update -- wound up not taking that second job at Dunkin' Donuts after all. It was too early in the morning, too far of a walk, and I could just tell it was going to be a disaster. But hopefully they'll be able to give me hours at the register in addition to the bakery, so I'll still be making more money, even if it's not as much as I'd like.

Also, idr if I mentioned this on here, but there's a trip to Boston in the works for August! I was originally just going to go with my parents, but then my dad was all "LOL WHY DON'T YOU INVITE YOUR BOYFRIEND. No, seriously. Invite him." So I did, but then his dad bought him tickets for a Blink-182 concert the day we were supposed to leave. Now the plan is to get there the day after in our own hotel, which is going to be expensive buuttttt we'll only be there for two night so hopefully it'll be okay. My mom is kind of upset, though, because I was supposed to be the one to take them to Penn Station and everything since they don't really know their way around the city. Rob might try to talk to his dad to get him to exchange the tickets for some other day, soooo yeah. IDK at this point. Gotta figure it out soon so we can book the hotel room.

My parents are in San Francisco right now on their vacation, and I am stuck here by myself until Tuesday. I wish I could've gone, but the plane tickets were way too expensive. So I will probably be bored out of my mind all weekend. And my parents have forbid me from baking, so I can't even make cookies or try the cupcakes again. :( (although I did make a milkshake)

But hey! Now I get to dance around the house without worrying that someone will suddenly barge in on me.

AND MAD MEN PREMIERE TOMORROW YESSSSSSS. Screw you, Direct TV, for not having AMC in HD! It's just not right.

I just got back from my mini-vacation weekend at Brittany's house! It was a fantastic time. It was so nice to be able to take some time off and forget about things for a couple of days.

It was a long ride in -- an hour and a half on the bus, then an hour and a half on the train -- but definitely worth it! We went to Six Flags yesterday, and it was AWESOME. There were no lines so we got to ride pretty much everything in only three hours. Brittany also showed us around the area she grew up in, like the former military base she went to school at for a while, and we went to the Kevin Smith comic book store in Red Bank. But yeah, in general just a good time. I would go into more detail, but I'm kinda tired after we spent today at Coney Island.

But back to the ol' grind tomorrow!

LJ isn't loading for me at the moment, so I'm gonna post this at Dreamwidth for now.

I called Sallie Mae today, and it turns out that I will, in fact, need a co-signer for this $5000 loan. Which fucking sucks, because I have no idea who to ask. I can't ask my parents because they're filing for bankruptcy so obviously they will be rejected, and if I try to ask my grandma again it will probably take a month to track her down and get it done like last time, and possibly it will be a fruitless endeavor again. I pretty much never talk to any of my other relatives, and they would probably be rejected as well because, idk we are all poor fucks. I need to figure something out, and soon. I have to do this, you guys.

But! In more light-hearted news, there is a possible trip to San Diego in late May in the works. My mom just has to convince my dad to go. There's a concert or something, I dunno, but she said I can tag along on the trip if I pay my own airfare. So, sweetness.

So, a trip back to Bellevue in July may be in the works. I'm really excited. I hope I can work it out and my student loans don't bite me in the ass (but I am trying to not to think about that right now nveio3h4 fuck). I miss it there... I miss the friends I made, and I miss Pike Place Market and Seattle and the nice summer weather and how pretty it is there and yeah. I wanna go back, just for a couple days or so.

In other news... um... that's it.

You know, this vacation is likely to drive me completely and totally insane.

I need to see my friends. SOON.

Here, have a funny video about Rome.

Picspam Friday Saturday #21
Week 21 - SanFrancisco!Spam



Past Spams

Man, I suck. The last two spams haven't even been on Fridays! XD Anyway...

I was talking to Astrid ([livejournal.com profile] wolftailwagger) one day, and she asked me to take pictures of my new school so she could see what it looked like. So, while I was doing this, I got an idea---why not post a massive picspam every Friday on LJ? And so, here we are.

Blahblahblah you all know the rest. These are pictures from my trip to San Francisco, taken with my shiny new camera. Note that my mom took some of these.

Cut for San Francisco stuff, wax museums, and lots of blurriness because my new camera doesn't have an image stabilizer. )
tju_tju_tju_tju: by raptureicons @ lj (by londonfirst tony stark plane)
Well, not black, exactly. More like a dumb tourist hoodie because it was cold and the wind was crazy.

Anyway, I'm back from San Francisco, and I had a great time! I suspect that I spent too much money, but I'm one of the biggest cheapskates you'll ever meet so it's probably less than you'd think. I thought the hotel would have free Internet access in the lobby but they didn't, so that kind of pissed me off, and it's also why I haven't been around.

...Actually, looking at my bank account right now, and I definitely have nothing to worry about. Yep. I have more money than before I left, actually.

But onto the brief summary of my adventures --

Under the cut, bitches )

So, did I miss anything? Any especially funny wank or anything...?
tju_tju_tju_tju: by raptureicons @ lj (by foreveryourssss kristen bell)
I'm gonna be leaving for San Francisco tomorrow, and I'm not sure if I'm going to have Internet access or not. So, I might be missing from tomorrow 'til July 3rd. Just a heads-up.
tju_tju_tju_tju: by raptureicons @ lj (by absolut_gravity shawn spencer)
I just gotta remember -- next week is the San Francisco trip (yay!), and then on July 12th it's fucking FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS. YYESSSS. If my mom didn't lose the tickets, that is... I know I gave them to her because I lose stuff all the time, so I figured they'd be safer in her hands. Let's hope I'm not proven wrong, or I will be so mad the world will explode. I'm not kidding. You do not want to see my wrath. EVER.

I was going to write tonight, but there's a George Carlin marathon on HBO in about an hour, so obviously I must watch it.
