Here is kind of our room layout(I am standing at the back, facing the door). You can see the foot of my bed, and Evelyn sleeps above me! She seems really nice, she is from Canada, and is best friends with another of my roommates, Candace. The bed along the wall is Lorelinda's- she has a desk set up underneath, which is pretty awesome. Krista is on the last bottom bunk, and Candace is above her! We all seem to get along pretty well- no one plays outrageously loud music or goes to bed at 2am (yet:). Though someones alarm clock did go off for like 12 minutes this morning. I'll try to post actual pictures of people at some point. I hate going up to people and actually asking them for a picture, though. So that is that, and now you can picture me in my room.
Whatever happens, DON'T WORRY just BE HAPPY in all that you do, for as long as you stay positive, it will lead to a happier you.

Goodbyes
At the end of this week, I am saying goodbye. And all this week, I am hanging with friends and family :) Monday: Bethany and I went to Signal Hill to talk- this random guy came up to us and told us how lucky we were to be sitting there in the most gorgeous spot in the world (in his opinion (and he's been to over 60 countries)). When we started to freeze, we went to It's A Grind for a hot choc. Tuesday: I got off work unexpectedly early, so I went to Baja Fresh. bought two tacos, and drove into a random neighborhood to enjoy them while sitting in my car listening to the radio- it was so much fun:D Then I went to Danielle's house to try to finish the painting we started ages ago. We have a little left to go. Wed: the Hippos are headed to Olive Garden (and who knows what after!). I'm excited. I haven't seen two of them in forever. Thursday I spend ALL day packing (I've not started yet) and then that night my grandma is throwing me a party. She is so cute. She is going to have an icecream cake (I love ice cream) and bubble water/perrier (which she is very enthusiastic about (I also like it, though)). She's cute, and I love her. Friday morning I wake up early to make the long drive out to school (hopefully with my mother- she might have jury duty) and say hello to my new world.

I haven't posted in awhile....
I've found out that I only have three roommates:) As I was expecting up to five, three sounds very appealing! Two are from Canada- best friends, they said. The other is from Arizona, I believe. I have less than a week to go. I leave Friday the 21st, stay at PCC over the weekend, then go up to Big Bear for a couple of days. It'll be an interesting experience.
We bought a rat! I haven't held one in such a long time- her name is Clementine.
Today was my last official day working at Julie's. From now on, I won't necessarily have a regular schedule- just whenever I can get home:) She gave me a really cute lamp for my desk. I'm quite excited about it.
Hopefully I'll get to see people this week. Planning on seeing Bethany on Monday. Hopefully dinner with the Hippos on Tuesday or Wednesday:D

Shopping, shopping, shopping!!
I feel like I just bought out a whole Target store!! I started the day with a text message from my mom basically telling me to get up, we're going shopping=] We started at South Coast, looking at pottery barn, z-gallery, crate&barrel, and macys. Fortunately, I found a bedspread (at macys of all places, where I've never been able to find anything). It's kind of a gypsie style. We had a half hour to kill before going to pick Jim up, so we stopped at a purse store. Tons of beautiful bags- I actually ended up buying one :/ so did my mom. This afternoon, we went to Target. I bought everything from school supplies, to sheets, to shampoo for college!! It's nice to have most of the items I need crossed off my list!

MARY HAD HER BABY!!!
A WHOLE MONTH EARLY! A little boy, everything seems fine (for both) at the moment. He has to wait 48hrs before they can bring him home, but man! They are in the process of a move, so they haven't finished unpacking and probably don't have everything organized yet. I am so excited:D It was weird though. Sometime this past week, I had the thought, what if she just gave birth to it now, and didn't have to wait a whole nother month!! How crazy is that?! Anyways, CONGRATS TO MARY & BEN! His name is Luke :)

2nd job
I started bbsitting a little boy today. I love it. The parents are so sweet, and the one child is really fun as well! They are close to a park, a little bit of water, and we can take a short drive to 2nd street or the beach. Today we walked down to the water to look at the fish and birds, but mainly stayed around the house playing games, reading, and coloring:) fun stuff.

First few days of summer
The first few days of summer have been great! Over the weekend, I worked at Julie's, was able to visit with Bethany, and dog sat Margot. Yesterday, I woke up and headed off to school. Pretty amusing- my first day off, and back I go. But I will NOT be one of those people who can't get over high school =] I went in to work on the yearbook with Allison, Amy, and Danielle. Afterwards we went to the Cerritos TC for lunch, and saw UP! Very cute movie. The dogs completely made it. And for the rest of the day I was subjected to hearing the phrase "I live under your porch, and I LOVE you" or something like that~ I try to forget these things. Grace (who met us at lunch) and Danielle and I went back to Danielle's house- making a pit stop at Lows where we picked up some lumber- and spent all night painting on our wood. Grace didn't paint- she just watched, but she will paint something- we saved a tree for her. I went back again this morning, and all we have left are trees and two houses, I think! Fun stuff- I love having a project. It makes it kind of hard having it somewhere else, but it is my first 'two-people-project' and I love it:) I'll see if I can post a picture sometime
