weekend update

Snikeyz!.

I relapsed back into awful updating, I'm sorry :(. The past couple of days have been moderately busy, and I've been lazy, of course. Friday night consisted of a mall trip with Amanda and Julie, then over to Jenna's with them for a movie night. We saw REPO - the Genetic Opera again, because Jenna hadn't gotten to see it since she was sick all week. It gets better the more you watch it, hahah :). Amanda and Julie passed out before ten, how lame. So the two of us watched Hot Rod, pretty hilarious, and went to sleep in her living room. She has the cutest chihuahuas( if that's even how you spell it). The next morning I took Julie home and spent the rest of my day at home, chilling with myself. I've been doing alot of that lately it seems-- "me time" :P. I'm not really going to complain though, I'm getting used to it. Plus it has perks, like I've been reading more, I finished 'I am the Messenger'. Such an incredible book, I highly sugggest it along with Zusak's other famous novel, The Book Theif. His writing style is phenomonal, check those books out, I command you :P.
So last night was pretty fun too. Jenna brought me to the bowling alley to watch Amanda's boyfriend Jeff play a gig with his brother's band. Once we arrived though, Jeff was like "Where is she? Is she hiding on me?" We had no idea what he was talking about, so we just laughed until we realized he meant Amanda. Jenna thought Amanda was getting a ride with Jeff, hahaha. But apparently we were supposed to pick her up on our way. Oops :P. So we drove all the way back to our town, got her, and drove back to the alley. It was a nice night, we basically just sat at a round table in the back talking amongst ourselves and laughing at this drunken woman. She resembled some snow bunny, white puffy vest and a fleece headband as her attire, boogeying down to Good Charlotte covers :P. It was amusing to say the least. We left for home around midnight and I spent the right of my night and today at home, having more me time :P. Tonight I actually went through these reference books my parents got suckered into buying for me years ago by some college salesperson. Fascinating stuff, actually. I keep flipping through the pages learning new things. There's something nice about learning for yourself, outside of the school cirriculum. I find neurology to be really interesting, I think I want to read more about it. There's this New Visions program next year that sounds so much better than being stuck here, inside this school. Instead I'd be taking actual honors classes my school doesn't offer, and be working in hospitals and visiting a whole lot of cool places. But I've never really given much thought to medical careers. I've always wanted to write, but lately I've been wondering if that's really all I should work towards. What if I can't write like Markus Zusak? What if it backfires? But then again if I get all focused on something like neurology, just to discover it's really not my thing, I might lose my creativity and love for words. Then I'll be left starting from scratch. I don't know, I'm rambling :P. These are just things I need to think about.


ps. Thanks to everone for the prom fundraising suggestions :). You guys gave me good ideas to think about, I appreciate it.
