I think I should be goin', yeah
And time doesn't wait for me, it keeps on rollin'
-Boston
First, my internet was dead for a week, then I was baking for two days straight, then I got lazy. But no more! I'll tell yall about my oh so eventful weekend.
I can't really think of anything awesome that happened over the week, besides me cooking dinner and baking cakes from Wednesday on... But Thursday night was when everything started happening. Me, my best friend and my sister went to the midnight showing of the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie. Though it was missing a few key elements (like the two best friend pirate guys, and rum) it was a pretty epic movie! We got back at 3am and I went straight to sleep...
Friday night we went off to my cousins' house. It was the reason I'd been baking. I wanted to show off my skillz to my family and my cousin's new boyfriend (he's sweet and funny and I approve, in case someone was wondering). It was great to see them cause we don't ever really get to hang out much.
Saturday was pretty slow, until I went over to see one of my friends that literally just got back from college! I helped him unpack a little, and then went and got ice cream with him and his sister. Then we just hung out with his mom and watched Southpark (I'm still iffy on the show... sometimes it's funny and sometimes I'm just like ew).
All I've done today is laze around the house and watch tv. I had a mini freak out about how my knee isn't getting any better from last year when I hurt it, so now I'm back to going to doctors about it... hopefully someone can fix it!
So overall it's been a perfect pre-class-starting weekend! My chem class starts tomorrow and I'm kinda freaked out, but happy to get it out of the way.

Saturday, May 14, 2011
Everybody was Kung Fu fighting...
Except not really, more like tae kwon do fighting... I don't do kung fu. Get it right.
So I just found out today that I can test for my brown belt soon... like this week. In my school, the belts go: white, yellow, orange, green, purple, blue, brown, red, red with a stripe, white with a stripe then black. So I'm moving on up in the TKD world! I'd love to test at GW, but random injuries and illnesses prevented that all year. RAWR. But now I should be back on track! Woo!!!
Today's just been a long day. I came home from TKD, went straight out with my mom and sis, came home and made dinner, then realized that it's the Saturday of my best friend's senior violin recital!!! It was 6:34 and the recital started at 7:00. Dude it's like half an hour away from my house without traffic or stupid slow people on the roads! So I ran to get dressed, and then realized I was starving, so I grabbed some of the food I made, and then ran to get dressed and go. I made it right im the middle of her last song. Better than nothing, but I still felt stupid for not realizing it was Saturday, but more upset that I was gonna miss this. WHy do I have to live in the middle of nowhere? Ugh, well at least I made it for the food =]
Final note: My knuckle is killing me. I think I hurt it in TKD, so I'm done typing for the night. Cue the ice and motrin. (If you hadn't realized, this is a fairly routine occurrence... the injuries I mean)

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder
-Thunder, Boys like Girls
Irony: I love this song, but am terrified of thunderstorms. And this is relevant because it's currently thunderstorming, like it does almost every night for the first half of the summer here. I've lived in NC all of my life and still can't get used to it. Maybe it's because I was almost struck by lightning one year... oh well... I'm working on it.
Anyways, after the first two days home, when almost all of my best friends visited me, it's been pretty boring. The reasons the visits had to happen so soon was 1. i hadn't seen some of them in 5 months, 2. some of them are leaving me for most of the summer to go adventure abroad and 3. it's kinda boring here without friends. And of course I miss all of them at all times. And then comes the sleepover... it starts at my best friend's house, where we bake pizza and eat dinner, and then comes over to my house where we chill and watch Glee and just talk. Or not even talk the whole time. It's just nice to be with this girl, cause we kinda spent all of junior and senior year together.
So for the next two days, I just kinda chilled. For the first time since... well winter break. I went to tae kwon do, went shopping, and generally just did what I wanted. That's when the internet was cooperating... it's been on and off since I got home, and generally off when I want it on.
And then tonight happened. I picked up my sister and her friends from a coffeehouse thing at their school (and my old high school) and took them to Steak & Shake. Everything was good until our waiter gave us our milkshakes and my sister said "I'm so excited for this!" and he replied, "I wish I was..." and we lost it. Couldn't. Stop. Laughing. Then a cop sat down at the table next to us, gun in full view. So we freaked out. After we got over the huge gun across the aisle from us, we were just goofing off and having fun, after all it's just a Steak & Shake. They don't judge. Then my sister tried to shake off her straw from the glass of water it was in, and it went all over me. So we both broke down laughing. Right as the waiter came by. Well he just gave us a look and walked away. Then the manager came over and stood there. Didn't say anything, didn't move, just stood there. That set us off even more! So when he starts walking away, I say something to my sister, and he turns around and answers me. More hysterical laughter. No big deal, it happens a lot when the two of us are together.
So that's my life so far this summer... hopefully these thunderstorms will be gone by tomorrow and my internet will decide to keep working (doubtful).
