WOW

May 23, 2008 - Friday
Spur of the momentness......... Current mood: adventurous Category: Travel and Places

So pretty much I have never done what I did this past Wednesday...
Have you ever been so mad at someone, something or some situation that all you can do is scream, cry or just plain wanna fight someone? Well I have and that was not too long ago this past Wednesday. Now I am not going into detail the severity of the situation bc it's not even a big deal... but I was HAMMERED, no really, like so drunk I was taking shots of Jameson (by myself) at the bar and then at 4 a.m. I thought it was a good idea to get out my credit card and book a flight to LAS VEGAS.
I am from there so its not like I was like ok, let me book a flight and then stay at the Motel 6, no I just wanted to get the hell outta suck town.
SO around 7 a.m. I was flying into Vegas and the plane landed and I was passed the hell out, so I thought we were crashing and I screamed! lol, the man next to me probably thought I was crazy.
I then proceeded to ask him, "Excuse me, sir, are those your water bottles?" He responded... "ya...." I said, "Can I buy one off you?" He was like, "sure... but they are water from the water fountain." I was like I DO NOT CARE, how much do you want?" lol he refused to take money from a drunkass and just gave me it. Bless his heart.
At this point I was still hammered. I called my mom who had already gotten a drunk dial from me at 3 a.m. (parents love those) and said, "Hey what are you doing?" "She was like ummm sleeping..." "Ok well come pick me up from the airport I am here." She was a little shocked.
So I get onto that stupid little train that u have to go to baggage claim in I am already fucking spinning and I swear I almost threw up on the person next to me.
My mom came and got me and then I was like, "oh, shit. I work tonight." Ya thank you Kyle for covering my shift you are amazing.
So I had a good time here in Vegas. Sometimes you just need to see your family and friends and the people you grew up with. Also it is good to just get the hell away for a little bit!
But Reno, don't you worry your pretty little head, I will be back in 4 hours!!!!!!!

Spain here I come!


I am really excited to be going to San Sebastian, Spain this summer! I am also very excited to just be getting out of NO-town for a little bit of the summer! A month and half will clearly not be enough to be in Europe and see all that I want to see, but I will be going back for sure!

I need to finally get my freakin passport! I know, I know, I should have gotten this so many months ago, but studying abroad was really like a spur of the moment thing! I woke up one morning and was like, well ya, I am gonna do it! Screw going with anyone else, I am going by myself and will have NO trouble making friends here. Ha, I have so many friends on myspace I deleted it and started over because I couldn't keep up with how many people I was friends with! LOL I am not trying to be conceited either, I just really like to have a lot of friends. I only have a about a handful of really good, loyal friends. That is fine with me because quality is way harder to find then quantity!

Anyways, back to Spain!! I am going on a group flight on June 23rd from San Francisco, CA and then we fly to Heathrow, England Airport. And then I imagine we are going to be flying to Spain? Or maybe taking a train of some sort, honestly I have no clue! That picture above is of San Sebastian! I am soo excited I want to scream (I am in Starbucks on campus, so I won't, haha)!
Well I need to go get my passport, I just wanted to express how happy I am to be going!

Seattle

In Seattle right now, well technically I am in Snolqualmie, WA which is a nice, cute, quaint suburb outside of the city of Seattle. I am about to go to the S.A.M. Seattle Art Museum. I am pretty excited about going to it with my Uncle Armand. My cousin Mia and I have been hanging out a lot. She is 6 (going on 12) and she is the cutest little girl ever! We have been playing this runway fashion show game that came with my HP laptop. Basically you dress these ultra-thin models in different clothes and throw them on the runway. The more you dont match the colors, the more points you are awarded. There are different themes like winter, fall, summer, swimwear, surf, 70's Classic and Hippie to name a few. They give you tops, bottoms, shoes and accessories to choose from. It is actually pretty fun! She is so cute, I will miss her a lot when I have to leave.
My cousin Alex, on the other hand is 11 and is a cute little surfer lookin dude. He is so smart it shocks me. He is doing a research on the brain and I read his introduction and was appalled. He is in school right now and Mia has gymnastics so that is why my uncle and I are headed to the museum. I am going to head out now, just wanted to blog a little for all my readers! Hope you are all having a wonderful Monday!!
