So, I cannot wait for college. I'm in Brewster on the eighth floor. Good stuff. I'm not working tomorrow, but I have to work Saturday and I kind of forgot about the concert festival that I'm supposed to be going to with my siblings, so, I'll have to leave early, but I don't really care. I don't need to see that all anyway.

I got My Sister's Keeper in the mail today, but I'm in the middle of two other books, so it'll have to wait. I'm reading The Edge of Winter and The Naked Roommate, so we'll see. I should be asleep right now (It's 12:19 and I need to be up in less than 7 hours), but I can't sleep. INSOMNIA friggen sucks. I want to write, but that's been a major suckfest the past couple of days...

Megan called me to hang out today. I had to work and didn't want to anyways, so, that worked out well. She just acts like everything between us is normal. It's not.

AND,
My name combos are giving me troubles. I have

Emmeline Daphne Claire
Violet Isabella Catherine
Rosalie Elisabeth June
Genevieve Lucia Margaret
Cecilia Gwendolen Jane
Eleanora Alice Caroline
Lydia Charlotte Adele
Anna Vivienne Esme
Juliet Alana Scarlett
Lillian Ruth Anastasia

I've realized that I simply do not care about the vast majority of people that I went to highschool with. I have Laura, and she's just about all that matters to me. We've been best friends since pre-school and she's the real deal, my bestie for life. Megan tried to tell me some story about a Grease drinking party she went to and all this stuff about Jeb and Keith; she conveniently left out some stuff about how she made out with a girl, or so I hear, but I realized that I simply do not care about any of that gossip at all. I'd just prefer not to know these things.

I went to a party for my cousin Jessie today. She's 30 now; exciting stuff. She's pregnant and due on October 10th (I think). She's quite an adorable pregnant woman if I may say so. This is her second child and she thinks it'll be a boy, but they're going to let it be a surprise. Her son is Tyler William; he's a cute little blonde, blue-eyed boy. My cousin Jason's girlfriend, Melinda is pregnant too; she's due the 23rd of November aka: the day before my 18th birthday. They just found out that they're having a little boy.

Seriously, I get in such odd moods when I think too much. I've been trying to read The Virgin Suicides. I'm about halfway through and I've started The Edge of Winter too. So, I've got two books to read before My Sister's Keeper gets here. I ordered on Border's.com two days ago and I can't wait for it to get here. =] Anyhow, all I want to do is write rather than read, so, I'm going with that and writing. This idea seems to be going places so I have to go with it. I'm watching ANTM right now. It's one of those friggin marathons, so, naturally, I won't be able to stop watching.

So, this week has been interesting. My grad party was on Sunday and I got to see a ton of family members and some friends, too. Then, I got $2950 dollars, so, that's pretty darn amazing. Tuesday, I went to Six Flags with my cousins and their children (Ashley-5, Andrew-7, Julianna-7, Carissa-4, Haleigh-7, Shelby-8, Josalynn-3). It was interesting. Now, I'm babysitting and the kids are watching the new Hannah Montana thing with Jake vs. Jesse. They're both pretty cute guys.

Last night, I went to see Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince last night with Laura, her dad, and my brother, Zachary. It was great. I teared up a bit when Dumbledore died, but it definitely was not as epic as it should have been...Tonight I have to work 5-close, then babysit tomorrow until 4:00, then work 5-close. I have Saturday off and I have some grad parties to go to, but then I have to work a party on Sunday afternoon. Oh, and I finished my thank-you cards today. All 60 of them. Well, I suppose that's it for now.

Ashley and Andrew were good today, thank goodness. We watched Scooby Doo for approximately two hours, then went upstairs and I printed pictures forever and they watched ICarly. We ate lunch and then we went to the park and the Dairy Bar to get some ice cream. When we got back, Ashley fell asleep and Andrew decided to watch Beethoven the 2nd and I worked on the scrapbook. I'm so close to being finished, yet so far.

Naturally, it just got done pouring rain outside and doing the whole thunder and lightning thing. I swear, we can't go a day without it anymore. As soon as my mom gets back with my car, I have to go over to work and tell them the information for my party so they know how much food to make and then I have hopes of going to the mall with Laura, but who knows. I have to buy a "sun dress" for my party on Sunday and I want to get a giftcard from forever21 for Megan because her birthday is on Thursday. I'm taking her out to dinner on Wednesday night with Laura because I have to work on Thursday night. Megan and I are babysitting for the Thompson family on Thursday (8-3). It shall be epic!

I haven't updated this in forever. How odd. I had these wonderful plans to keep up with it and then it just stopped. I suppose that's when I got uber busy/stressed and didn't keep up with it. Well, a lot happened. I graduated and things have changed. I cut my hair and I can't wait to be cut loose from this place. Never have I felt so weird in this place. I've realized that the only person I really hang out with anymore is Laura; she's the legitimate best friend. I've known this for awhile, but now it's definite. She's amazing and I've found that if she's busy, then I really don't do anything. Well, other than hang out with the brothers. Fun fun. I leave for Syracuse on August 26th and I cannot wait. My roommate seems awesome from what I know and I really just want to go. I want to meet new people and experience new things. I'm just getting anxious.

Russel and I went to Walmart today. I spend a ton of time at Walmart lately. I was there last night too and then I went to TacoBell after with Laura. Well, I bought more college stuff, like notebooks and stuff. Then, Russel and I went to Pizza Hut. I thought I would fall right asleep, but I'm not really ready yet. I cleaned my room today though so it looks pretty awesome right now. I'm itching to write, as in novels, but I'm not feeling too particularly creative right now, so, this will have to do for now.
