So, people tease me a lot about my dislike of Paramore and I thought I'd clear up a few things.Upon first discovering I don't like the band, people always come back with "But they're so catchy! How can you dislike them?"I don't dislike their music. They ARE catchy and poppy. The lead singer has a decent voice that she uses all right, and she has the potential to sound even better. The guitarist

For the last few months, I've been really pushing everyone to listen to The Wombats. [Out as of April 8th! Woohoo!] My favorite tracks are "Kill the Director" and "Let's Dance to Joy Division," but "Moving to New York" is their most popular song so far. Shows how much I know about hit-making. :pBut I've been talking about this band for 3 months, and I think people are tired to hearing me talk

It's been a while since the last time I wrote anything up here. But last night I had a horrible, horrible experience over in SF that I just HAD to relate.Okay. So I was driving Vivian (first mistake, right?) and I crossed the bridge going into SF.About the time I hit the place where the 80 merges with the 101 (just before it hits 280), my entire car started to shake. But I was in the very left

Yeah, okay, so no one really believed that Weezer was gone for good. But when Rivers claimed he wanted to retire, we thought it would last a little longer than, what, a year??Apparently, the new album is to be released April 22, 2008. (Happy Bday, Dani!!!) And an early release of "demos" (that sounds more like an EP than a demo) is supposed to come out before the end of the year. With an Ice Cube

It seems that the world has become obsessed with Countdowns. (I wonder if this has any connection to the slew of trilogies that have been appearing...)I'd like to say definitively that the popularity began with VH1's Greatest Songs of the Eighties. Or slough all blame onto the conception of the awful song "Final Countdown." That's right, you heard me Europe. You're EVIL.But I can't. Much to my

Okay, so, I took the Sandman quiz (because it's late and I can't sleep). I got the weirdest result. I would never have expected this. (Even besides the fact that I thought it was predesigned to give everyone Dream...much like the Sorting Hat quiz is predesigned to place everyone in Gryffindor house.)Which Sandman Character are You?You are Desire!

Okay, the thing that Radiohead is doing with their album-the sliding scale price-AWESOME. Now every single fan of the band can own the album. Genius.I mean, it wouldn't work for most bands. Particularly considering how little bands make off the first x albums sold. However, Radiohead knew going into this album that they would sell every album pressed. So, the price of the album was really moot

I'm finally getting over this weird flu virus that's been getting me down. I had to cancel work for three days, though, which makes me feel a bit like a slacker. So when they called and asked me to cover part of a shift tonight, I said I would even though I'm still not feeling great.

I found out that I might have to work Christmas Eve. I don't generally work on Sundays, but as the most recent hire at Borders in my holiday temp position, I'd say that particular Sunday I'm a shoe-in.For further fun, due to my two jobs, I have to work double shifts occassionally. This doesn't sound so bad, right? I mean, it's just a few extra hours here and there. No. It's not just a few extra

The Sounds are playing the Fillmore on December 3rd. I MUST get tickets!!! I've been listening to "Dying to Say This to You" pretty much nonstop for the last couple of days. It's flamencotastic. (And I don't use that word lightly.)Things have been pretty mellow here at Unit B since I got back from BraggTown Thursday night. We went to a party on Saturday, but that was about it.

Been awhile, eh, world? Sorry about the hiatus. I got caught up in moving, then working, which had progressed to the point where any time off was fiendishly hoarded as Vegging Time. I can, however, say that I've been doing well.The most exciting thing I've done recently was attend the Bridge School concert with roomie Myung. It was pretty awesome.

I cannot believe that I've spent the last four years of my life at Cal. It feels like maybe two tops. Devika and I were just getting to know each other yesterday. I'm sure I just managed to breach the space-time continuum and skip ahead a little while. Einstein would be so proud. Or maybe devestated, I'm reallly not sure which...Unfortunately, any feelings of nostalgia for the good ol' freshmen

It's been a bad couple of days. I don't know if I could give a reasonable, logical explanation for why it's been so bad. I mean, yes, a couple of bad things have happened, but usually one can bounce back from those rather easily.I think it's more that a bunch of things have come to a head simultaneously. Things that have been broiling for months.Maybe they're my own fault. Maybe I'm stressing

How is everyone? Oh, I'm fine, a little tired but good. Thanks for asking.I started my new job at Alice Radio on Friday, which, by the way, was St. Patrick's Day for all you non-Irishmen who missed it. I worked a shift starting at 5am. Yeah, that sucked. It meant getting up a little before four, which, in turn, meant that I slept a grand total of 1.5 hours. But the promotion itself was fun. Oh,

That's right, I'm back. Things are going smashingly well in Kaitlinland. I got back from Calistoga yesterday after spending two extremely relaxing days in the heated pools. The weather was amazing, too. Hot, around 75, with a cool breeze. Then we came back to the East Bay where it immediately decided to become a rainy, gray mess of clouds and fog. Typical.I'm slowly realizing that my "dislike" of

Oddly enough, three of my lectures in the past week have mentioned the Holy Foreskin. Neither of them are religious studies. And while I'm quite sure that the Holy Foreskin is important, I find myself wishing that I didn't have to hear of it so often. If that sends me to hell, then at least I'll be among friends.My attempt to reorganize my schedule so that I can drop psychology has not been going

In the past two days it has become apparent that our Berkeley education has meant nothing. At some point, all of the L&S seniors were put on a mailing list called senior_spirit. And then, lo and behold, at 4:52pm, a sorority girl named Dana Rebeccah Cohn sent an email as a reply to the list that said "unsubscribe me." And the hilarity began.5:00pm: "Unsubscribe me" emails begin flooding innocent

Danica is moving downstairs to take over the in-law style apartment. This is quite cool since she will now have a larger room and less rent. It's kind of cool for us because she's not a very loud person, but I don't know who her roommate will be, so the whole Kaitlin-not-sleeping issue is still up in the air. The best part is that Hilary will be moving in with us. This is very exciting. It'll be

So, my reading list has once again been deconstructed. I found out that I couldn't bring Tricky Business down here with me because my father is taking it to England; Death on the Nile and The Mysterious Affair at Styles had to be culled because my mom donated them to Paul Bunyan* while I was at school; and Prince Caspian was inadvertantly left on my nightstand.Annoying as all that is, the fact

Woah. I was trying to eat pretzels (aka lunch) at the same time as I was writing an email, which was apparently a bad call on my part, because I bit into one (an act I've simulated several thousand times over my short life span as I'm something of a pretzel fiend) and it practically disintegrated all over the couch. I swear to God, more crumbs appeared than what originally made up the pretzel.

I'm finally back from Simi Valley. I know, you all missed me terribly. I had fun, though. I stayed with Devi and she showed me around Simi, which apparently means taking me to Northridge.Danica's party was pretty fabulous. Her parents put together this slideshow and set to music pictures of her life. It was pretty cool. There were some really cute photos. However, there was a photo of me on there

I've been looking over my reading list and the various piles of potential add-ons in my room for the past couple of days. Since my project was to intersperse less scary volumes in with my original list, I believe I've reached a suitable goal list.1. Grave Sight [check]2. Twilight [check]3. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe [check]4. Sunshine [in progress]5. Join Me6. Tricky Business7. Prince

Tonight, I have a case of the mean reds.I'm not even sure why since I had a great day. This afternoon I met up with Tris, Danielle, Sven, Brendan, David, and Hana for bowling, which––considering that I'm more of a handicap than an addition to any team––I assure you I did not play. Instead, I discovered my bowling calling as the team scorer. It was really fun, especially referring to everyone by

Does it ever freak you out when cats or dogs suddenly swivel their heads into a seemingly empty corner of the room and just stare? As if there's something there that you just can't see. And apparently it's extremely interesting. More interesting than, say, you.I've been scaring myself with books and TV again. As if you couldn't tell, right? I finished those two books with the death toting

I'd forgotten what reading for pleasure feels like. Unusually for me, I've been on a Scare Myself phase for my reading list. In the last two days, I've consumed two horror books-during which heroines see (and speak to) dead people-with plans for a new vampiric volume tomorrow.I think after McKinley's Sunshine, though, I'm going to move back to the world of realistic, hunky dory fiction.

Can I have my dreams now, Mr. God of Sleep?Anyway, when I get tired––as you all know––I get a little...odd. Earlier, I stumbled across Google's Blog Search and decided to test run it, cuz someone used it to find my blog. When I searched for my name, I found this thing:A- Age you got

I got my hair cut today. It's pretty awesome. I'm quite excited. The stylist was actually able to get my hair to hold a wave. Usually it's stick straight and about as interesting as it is green. As a consequence, after I do my hair, it feels boring and conventional. But today it feels flippy and frivolous. I never feel flippy and frivolous!I tried once. I attempted a perm when I was 12. I got it

Christmas has gotten complicated in Fort Bragg.Here's how the holiday usually (i.e. for all previous years of my life) breaks down:-I come home and the Holiday Baking Extravaganza begins. In general, this last from about the 19th to the 24th. Practically every spare moment is spent baking and/or decorating the baked goods. The main attraction is our Sugar Cookie Decoration process, which includes

Last night, I saw one of the funniest comedy acts ever. They're a folk music duo called Flight of the Conchords who play comedic folk songs. For example, they have one song called "Alby the Racist Dragon" and another where they call themselves the "Hip-hop-opotamus" and the "Rhyme-nasaurus." I don't know if one can describe them. At the end of the show, they pulled out this "guitar" that is also

I just read that last post (cuz I'm in Fort Bragg and I'm really bored) and I realized that it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. Sorry about that. I was going on about three hours of sleep or something equally ridiculous, thus, any nonsensical ramblings are the product of a sleep deprived mind and really must be excused.The song that I've been hearing non-stop is "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea"

Teale turned me on to this song by Neutral Milk Hotel that I just can't stop listening to. I hear it in my head whenever I think of him, which is odd since I rarely associate specific songs with people.Right now, I should be finishing my packing. Unfortunately, I am so far from being done that I can't bring myself to continue, despite my raging tiredness headache and the fact that I have to drive

Fevers do funny things to my mind. I begin to hum odd songs such as The Partridge Family's "Come on Get Happy." I agree to house a cat for two weeks (she really is cute, though). I call people repeatedly, forgetting that I spoke to them not twenty-four hours before.And, I decided that doing this would be a good idea:On his blog, my brother posted this weird game that he played.

I'm mad. So very, very mad.Not, as one might expect, over the fact that I have six papers due in one week. Nor can I boast a confrontation with an annoying Republican. In fact, considering my cushy life, I have very little to be mad about. But I am. (Attention please, we regret to inform you that a malfunction has occured within our system.

Sometimes I think I need to go to work stoned. That's the only way some of these albums are going to sound listenable. For example, the musical stylings of No-Neck Blues Band on their album "Qvaris." I swear to you, the only way you could sit and listen to this album is by smoking lots and lots of pot. So much so that you can't move to turn it off.Okay, that might be a bit of an exaggeration. If

A storm blew in. The cats nearly ate the turkey. (Twice.) My parents' friends got drunk before we served the appetizers. My mom and aunt got in the obligatory fight over how to cook dinner right as they're finishing the last dish. My brother and I nearly dropped an entire tray of wine glasses. Maggie got violently ill and had to be taken home in the middle of supper. My parents burst into song

The Slip is pretty darn awesome, I must say. They're a total jam band, though, so their album (available on their website for easy listening) is quite a bit different from their live performance. While both are good, I think I like seeing them live better.It was a little confusing when we arrived, though, because all three members of The Slip + a new singer were the band that opened for The Slip,

Considering that I am fighting the threat of bad music one boy band at a time, my friend recently asked me for my stance on Celebrity Playlists. Do I like them, vandalize them, think they're the stupidest invention since lip-synching?Surprisingly, I think the subject came up thanks to the new Harry Potter film.

My contemporary novel class got out early yesterday, so I ended up going to history sooner than usual, something I will never do again. It freaked me out. You know all those people who are in the lecture hall before anyone else gets there, silent, as if they've melded with the chairs? They're so much a part of the background, something you see every day, that I never even notice them anymore.

I spent almost one year free of its enticing spell, where I would check my page for messages maybe once a month.

Tomorrow night I reaffirm my post as intern to Chris as I embark on the expedition to Café du Nord. There, I will endure endless amounts of gofering, merchandise selling, drink toting, lifting, last-minute-errand-running, and many other menial tasks that I can't even think of right now. Meanwhile, I will be listening to the musical genius of Sean Hayes. I'm looking forward to it.Other than that I

I don't know if I'll ever recover from the sheer coolness I was exposed to in the past 72 hours.Friday night, Danica and I went to the final show of the Foozer tour, which started with the wonderful surprise of Hot Hot Heat as the opening band. They were a major step up (sad to say) from The Kaiser Chiefs who opened in San Diego. The whole set was awesome, not just "Goodnight, Goodnight," which

It was a slow week at work, only seven or so albums to listen to. I did, however, get a kick out of the name on the back of one of the jackets: Kimchee Records. How cool is that? I love kimchee.The sad thing is, we don't really have any "Dos" this week. Nothing was shocking or fascinating in its genius. But the show must go on, so, I'll instead mention a few tracks that caught my attention.Dos:

I am a music snob. I realize this and I try to keep the snide mental remarks to a minimum. But sometimes I can't help it. I mentioned last time that I started working for ReadyMade as an intern in the music section. Ironically, I have yet to meet the actual music reviewer. Instead, we communicate through post-its on cds and I work directly under Julia (I'm not sure of her title). Anyway, so I

Insomnia is not your friend. Sure, you start out thinking, "Okay, so, I've got insomnia. That's another eight hours I can add to my day. Now I can try all those things I've always wanted to try but never had time for. Like…midnight gardening. My productivity will shoot through the roof!"Well, productivity aside, it sucks.

I thought that potatoes had to be in dirt in order to sprout. Obviously, I was wrong. Walking into the kitchen the night of my triumphant return to Berkeley, I found myself greeted by a sweet potato with a small colony of plant life establishing itself in our fruit/vegetable bowl. Actually, considering my exclamation at the sight, I believe I may have been greeting it, rather than the other way

Now, it's raining and I'm wondering if that's going to effect our ability to set up the tents. *shrugs* But the rain is making me really happy, actually. I feel so comfortable right now.

Next weekend, we've got the LASA culture show, Danica's bday outing to Cheesecake Factory, and the Weezer concert! *squeals* Unfortunately, before all of that, I have to write an 8 page paper on a Jane Austen.

COUNTDOWN TO WEEZER: 16 days!!!!!This paper is going to kill me. Now, I know what you're thinking about my usual habit of melodrama, but this time I'm serious. I can't seem to get past the third page, and it's supposed to be between 8 and 10 pages. And it's due Thursday. Can you say, "Kaitlin's screwed?" I don't even a definitive topic yet. I'm trying to write something on the film "Orfeu Negro"

COUNTDOWN TO WEEZER: 22 DaysToday started off not so good. I woke up way too early for my late night hangover. No, I was not drinking last night. I was merely out extremely late, so I didn't get much sleep. Then I spent half an hour staring at my closet, trying desperately to put together an outfit that wouldn't be too hot and that I could wear sneakers with, but that wouldn't look TOO eccentric

So, blue cellophane is strung across our living room with colored foil fish hanging down from it. I feel like I'm living in an aquarium. Sebastian feels right at home, though. Okay, so he looks about as excited as peat at the moment, but he's generally not a very active fish.Relay for Life is almost here! Just a couple more weeks now. It's exciting.

It's so weird being back in Berkeley after being in Hawaii for a week. Everything is upside down. I mean, here, it's raining. There, it's sunny. Here, everyone is stressed. There, everyone is chill. Life is just odd like that. Thanks to this rain, though, I'm losing any semblence I had of a tan. So sad. And I had to put in long hours at the beach for the pathetic color I actually managed to

However, I've been trying to get my schedule straightened out and all this other crap.

Well, I just wrote a huge post and LOST it due to my staggering brilliance. Now I'm not really all that inclined to write another one. *sigh* Oh, well. Let's try this again. Time for the uber exciting Winter Break Update! Because it stormed almost every day, I spent my break mostly in the house. I watched a lot of movies, read a number of books, sewed, knitted, etc. (Name something you can do

My room is a whopping 45 degrees Farenheit, and I just got out of the shower. To battle this heat wave, I'm enjoying a nice warm hot chocolate. With whipped cream on top, of course.

Another Thanksgiving is over. Why does time seem to pass much more quickly than it used to? A lot has happened in the past few weeks. So much, in fact, that I wouldn't be able to fit it all in one post. Therefore, I am utilizing the underestimated technique of "highlights." Life's Highlights: -Bus Guy actually spoke to me, and, shockingly enough, has an actual name so I won't need to refer to

On my way to the library, I saw a leprechaun. I'm not kidding. He was even wearing green (both his shirt and his hat). Granted, the hat was a Ashton-Kutcher-style trucker's hat, and he was riding a bicycle, not a rainbow, but it was still green and I fully expected to see a four leaf clover sticking out of it. Unfortunately, the clover remained unseen. Danica and I are going to the Live 105 Not

I'm being forced to write an autobiography in French, and it's supposed to be a page long. My autobiography in English wouldn't be a page long. My life so far hasn't been all that interesting. I think she realized that this would be a hard assignment to make one page since she went ahead and told us not to make things up. *sigh* Let's see, what can I include in my life story? 1. I was born in

Considering that I haven't written in a loooong time, this epistle will probably end up being novel-length. I sincerely apologize if this is the case. As my readers (a group of people to which Devika now claims membership ^_^) probably already know, I went down to Santa Barbara this weekend to visit my friend Sarah. The trip itself was incredibly fun, and it was nice to catch up with Sarah

Despite the fact that Prathna is the only person who actually reads my blog anymore, I shall continue to post! I shall persevere in the face of adversity! I will not be forced into silence! Cuz, you know, I'm stubborn like that. And onward to my life! Bus Guy smiled at me today.

Jeremy: So, my floormate is singing in his room, a little too loudly for my tastes, so i tell him to shut up. We're friends so it's cool. Anyway, he comes storming into my room (wearing a towel...yeah) and starts dancing to the music. I think my eyes are bleeding. He then notices my poster of mr. depp. Awkward questions follow. "Dude, what's this?" "That? Oh, it's Johnny. You know, the J-man" "

So, those of you who know the story of yesterday-referred to from here on as The Day the Gods Laughed-will be relieved to hear that today was extraordinarily better. Not only did it not rain, I was not late to class, I did not get back a better, I did not get soaked, I did not have to pay for parking, I did not have to get up early...etc, etc. In fact, my GSI for French brought us candy! CANDY!

I joined an intermural softball team! Yay! All I've done with them so far is a scrimmage, but that was really fun, cuz the other team didn't care about winning (I mean, for goodness's sake, it was a SCRIMMAGE) and we didn't care. And it was just good fun. We were supposed to have a game today, but it got cancelled due to rain. *sighs* So, instead of playing softball, I went to my Aunt's and did

I just came back from my first ever hockey game. Woohoo! Fun stuff! We lost, though. Three to six at the end. *sigh* I'm so disappointed. I think we need to work on two things at the next practice: 1) Passing. We kept passing to either open air, or the boards. 2) Hustling. Some of the players would give up towards the end of the play when they might have been able to stop the goal if they had

So. I'm in Moffit (since they KILLED my reading room!!!!) and I'm down at the computing center. I'm working on a Chaucer paper that's due next Monday. It's only five pages. Last semester, I would have said "God, it's four to five pages!? How am I going to fill five pages on Chaucer??" Now, after my 8 page paper on The Sound and the Fury, I have learned to be grateful for the blessing of a four to

I'm sick again. I don't know where my immune system went, but I hope I get a postcard sometime soon. Bush is a total fuckwit. Kerry looked liked freaking EINSTEIN compared to Bush during the debates. I mean, Bush didn't even directly answer most of his questions. He changed the subject!!!! What the hell??? Oh, and my favorite part: Every life is precious. That's what distinguishes us from the

Something is rotten in the state of Doe... Or, at least, that's what Prathna and I decided earlier today when we graced Doe Library with our presence. See, first they steal my study room, then they MOVE MARK TWAIN. He's no longer by the stairs. Now he's by Morrison Reading Room. What the HECK is he doing there? What reason could he possibly have for being by the Morrison Reading Room? Poor guy..

It all started when Devi and I decided to do our laundry... So, we went to Eric's place, cuz the washers and dryers there are cheaper than the place on Shattuck. Everything was great until we decided to get some food. On the way to the Asian Ghetto, I decided that I would just get a Sobe, but Eric and Devi both wanted Steve's BBQ. And that's where our fun really began. I bought a Sobe and Eric

So, Eric and I went to the French library yesterday and he happened to mention that he was looking for a quiet place to study. Well, OF COURSE I decided to tell him all about my favorite study room in Doe! (I love telling people about the North Reading Room.) And when the French library was closed, I offered to show him where it was. We head on over and I'm extoling the virtues of the North

Ha! I thought of something good that happened! Remember the guy I told you about? That I hugged? The one with the hat? Well, when I asked him, he let me wear his hat!!!! It was so cool! I don't know why I enjoyed it so much. Probably because no one else got to wear the hat. Course...I bet no one else asked. *shrugs* Whatever, it was still awesome. ^_^

I keep finding myself slipping into this frame of mind where I have to chat to fill the silence. It's quite strange, really. But I've been doing it all the time recently. Every time there is a silence in the air, I fill it with noise. I think I'm beginning to annoy people. Or maybe I've always been this way and I've just never noticed? Dunno. *shrugs* Oh well. No need to dwell on it. Last night

All right! First week of school is OVER! So exciting. *sighs contentedly* A lot of interesting developments revolving around my academic career have popped up this week. For example, I'm changing my schedule slightly, and then I'll have a class with Dani!!! Yay! But here's the most exciting part: I'm going to be DECLARING!!! I am overjoyed! I can hardly contain my excitment! *squeals* I feel

Yay! I'm back in Berkeley for good! Or at least until Thanksgiving. Anywho! So, I've had one of every class and am now qualified to judge them. Here are my verdicts: Eng 45A- Seems like it'll be pretty cool. Lyndsay is in my class again, which will be really helpful. I think I'll need a study buddy for this one. We've started out with Chaucer, which is insanely confusing to read. Imagine that..

Woohoo! Go Warriors! Even if you don't win! I just got back from the Warriors game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. They lost. But they put up a good fight for most of the game!! Yay! Eric, Dani and I went, with tickets given to me by Joe, sweetheart that he is. The guys who were sitting next to us were a trip though. They seemed to take a real liking to Eric, but they called him names when

Despite being very very drunk...One time, Julian picked up his mike stand and in a fit of...something...threw it across the stage towards the drums. Then, after the song was over, he couldn't find it. Finally, when he did, he started talking to it. "There you

That's right! I'm BACK by popular demand!!! Or...well...Devika's sole demand about a month ago... Nevermind! So, what have I been up to, one might ask? I shall tell you! For Spring Break, I went home and spent time with the folks and my best buddy Sparky. Then I came back here to do more homework and turn in more papers. Then came last weekend!!! I went to the two Van Morrison concerts in San

And to think, Sparky's not even an English major! *gasp* Sparky: Footnotes are fun. Kaitlin: they are, aren't they? Kaitlin: i don't know why they're so appealing Sparky: Griffin (It should be noted that the Griffin piece is only one page long, therefore making it difficult to cite page numbers).

Hi hi! I'm BACK!!! Oh my gosh! The nicest thing happened to me yesterday!!! So, I was coming out of my Shakespeare class, and it was lightly drizzling, but by the time I'd gone about...oh...six feet, it was POURING RAIN. I mean, we aren't talking "raining cats and dogs" here, this is more like..."raining tigers and wolves." So, there I was, no umbrella (forgetful me), in a sweatshirt and jeans (

Well, this was an exciting weekend for me! Friday: Dani, Devi, Nancy, Eric and I went out to dinner at Giovanni's down the street. We got all dressed up and it was really fun. We were having more fun than any other table in the place! Then again...maybe we're just crazy... Anyway, so there was this waiter who seemed to fancy Eric a whole lot. He kept bringing Eric more water and another soda, etc

Okay, so, everyone knows I hate Valentine's Day. Well. Apparently so do most of my friends. (Yay! NO VALENTINE'S!!!!) Anyway, so Sparky and I were talking about how much we hated it and how it was so pointless. Kaitlin: you know, there's only one good thing about valentine's day...the sales on candy Sparky: something depressing about eating truffles out of a heart shaped box, gloomily pondering

I'm BACK!!! Well, kinda. My internet is fritzing, so I'm only sorta back. :-p I'm back in a physical sense, but not an online sense. My break was grrrrrrrrreat! How was everyone's? Good? Great? (Notice that "Bad" is not a choice. Pure optimism speaking. ^_^) I didn't do anything of importance, just hung out. Woohoo! It was a dream vacation! The only thing missing was the Bahamas-type weather.

So I'm home. ^_^ Yay! I hope everyone's break is simply SMASHING so far. I've been so busy, oh my gosh. I've been hanging out with Sparky and Michael (of course) and my family lots. So, I haven't had time to be bored at all yet. Course...I've only been home for three days. :-p Oh my god. My family did this HuMunGoUs grocery shopping today. It took us TWO carts at Safeway.
