okay so the dude would talk to me, but in this unfriendly, unsmiley manner. seriously made himself unapproachable and cold and he spoke to mean in a monotonic i dont give a fucking damn voice. when i apoligized or said thank you and smiled he did not acknowledge any of those, but you know i semi-understand since 1. hes at work and someone could have pissed him off 2. he might have shit going on in his life 3. hes getting deported (hahahahahahaha jk jk) BUT ITS WORK! hahaha you know we have to put up a fake ass smile and be nice to the customers no matter what. whatever were going bowling in november/december and that will be his final chance to show me! hahahaa.
I HOPE JASONNNN COMES<3333 mmmmmm.
and i think michael cera is cute in just about every movie ive seen him in. his little awkward loveyness. SO PRESH! hahahaha.
so i just realized i wrote a whole essay about the canadian boy. hahaha.
Where have I been this year? You want states? Events? Cities?
Um... Let's see...
In February I drove up from Tulsa through Texas (bleh), New Mexico, Arizona - where we had dinner and stayed the night at Jess's house, California - where I saw the ocean for the first time ever and spent some time in Oceanside, hanging out with Billy and Jen's cousin John, then Oregon and up to Washington. I lived in Longview (butthole town) for 4 months and spent a lot of weekends in a little town in Northern Oregon called Astoria, where The Goonies was filmed, and on Cannon Beach, which was the most beautiful place I'd ever seen in my life until this weekend... I spent a little time in Seattle, went up to Canada with my friend Randy, where we were supposed to go on a whale-watching tour, but it got canceled due to choppy waters, so we just explored Vancouver, which was cool. I went to Long Beach, in southern Washington, about an hour West of Longview, and it was ugly and almost dirty-looking and boring. I wouldn't recommend it. Um... Spent a little time tooling around in Seattle with Sam. Then I went to Jessica's wedding in AZ, back to Longview, back to Tulsa for 3 weeks, back to Washington, but this time to Mill Creek. Went to Seattle and Cannon Beach a few more times - got to take my mom too because she came to visit me, went to Portland, Seattle, and Vancouver for Hanson shows in the same week, and then this weekend in Forks, Port Angeles, La Push, and the Hoh Rain Forest. On the way back to Tulsa (leaving in a couple of hours), Sam and I plan to stop again in Arizona and California. And then I'll be HOME! :D
Best year of my life. And I'm glad to be coming home. I've missed everybody and even missed Tulsa, even though it's full of conservative, hyper-religious Republicans (SIGH). This has been a real eye-opening experience, but I'm a big baby and I want my mommy and my friends for a while, lol.
i was dying to call you during my hanson concert for old times sake lol i thought better of it though i am seeing them again for both nights in chicago lol yes i'm a major dork i know ps you are the only person I know who likes old school Hanson & not the new stuff lol you are special
THANKS LEASHIE! its okay, its not like we ever worked together anyways! there will always be something to do (: JASON BETTER COME TO TULSA!<3 haha if he ever does i better be the first person you tell! lol bowling, well the guy was a complete asswipe! ugh he was so nice the first time too, but whatevs. haha michael cera is sucha cutay.
Cool! Yah, Pac-Man is always great. We saw some funny slot machines at the fair. I think it would cool to have one of those too ;)
Thanks! I know our house will be..unique anyway, lol. That would be cool. You could be a our design coordinator, then you could make a living doing that.
It's called Photoscape. I found it when I was googling "free photo editing software". I really love it. It's got all sorts of cool tricks, and I can even make slide shows. I'm working on one from my traveling experiences right now - of all the places I've been this year. If you download it, let me know if you need help figuring any of it out, or you can just play with it and see what you can do, like I did. ;)
