Richard II Info

here is a link to info on the return of "Richard II" to Santa Barbara. for those who wanted to see the show, again or for the first time.

untitled

three weeks from this last tues, the day i need to be back in santa barbara to rehearse for Richard II and get ready for our trip to Poland. i am looking forward to being back in santa barbara. but today i feel i have started to finally enjoy being home more. i mean there were things about being home i didn't like, and but i think some of the little things that made me like it are finally starting to out weigh the bad things. it took a while. but i finally am okay being away from my westmont friends. i mean i miss them still of course.

but anywho, before we take off for poland we are going to perform Richard II again in the same church we did before. those who missed it or would like to see it again, let me know so i can keep you posted on dates, cost, etc.

thin line

i'm walking a thin line. the line between wanting to be home and wanting to get as far away from home as possible. i love my family, but sometimes i just need to get away. and it happens a little more often then i expected. i really can't wait for the day i can finally get my own place. and i am yet again missing westmont: the campus, the people, my friends, santa barbara, the freedom.

19th

Sunday was my 19th birthday. It was a very good day. I was with my friends from Westmont. They woke me up in the morning singing happy birthday and brought me breakfast. Then later they presented me and Heather (whose birthday was Monday) with cake and gifts. They got me a nice card and some cool random stuff. I love my friends.
It was a different experience not being home on my birthday.

This Weekend

I leave tomorrow morning for a weekend in Napa.
Things haven't gone how i wished and the trip is shorter than hoped but i hope to have fun anyway.

there might be pictures when i come back.

Napa or bust!

So I for sure will be going to Napa June 8-12th. Either by train or by car, I am going. It will be my birthday present to me to make sure I see my Westmont friends on my birthday (which is June 11, if you didn't know). As of now, I am waiting on a few people to know if they will still be going and how we are going to get there. If I don't hear back from everybody, I will start getting annoyed and not just a little stressed, like I am right now. I don't want to complain, because at least I have a great group of friends to make plans like this with. I just wish the whole group could be there.


this is totally a different topic, but i just wanted to know how many of my Westmont friends read this blog. so if you are one of my Westmont friends and you do read this blog, leave me comment so i know you do. Thanks love you!!

Sadly no...

...no license ....YET.
i made a few mistakes and now i need to practice more and then take the test again.
so heads up guys, we will need to re-look at our road trip plans. it will happen somehow, whether by car or train.

Road Trip

June 8-12th, I will most likely be in Northern California visiting with Westmont friends. I am soooo excited about the trip!! And I will have more money for it because i am not going to end up buying the new laptop this summer. I just need now to make sure i get my license tomorrow morning.

boy the butterflies are fluttering in my stomach. tomorrow morning i take my driver's license test. i am nervous but i think i will do fine. if y'all wouldn't mind praying for calm and focus for me tomorrow morning, that would be much appreciated.

Hopefully tomorrow morning i will be a licensed driver~!!!!

Driver's License Test Date

TUESDAY MAY 30TH @ 10:30AM!!!
that is when i will be taking my test for my driver's license. i drove a lot today. got to keep up on the practice. just wanted to let y'all know so y'all can pray for me on that date.

arg

still no job....

the valley hunt club didn't work out.

Shakira, Shakira, Shakira

recently the only music i want to listen to is Shakira music. for some reason i have fallen in love with her music. it is so addicting. so i have been listening to it a lot in the last week. but for the last two days i haven't been blasting it from my stereo because we have the painters here taking down wallpaper. and well they're all Mexican and i'm not sure how they'd feel or what they'd think hearing Shakira blasting from the room of a white boy. soooo i've been listening to other music until they leave.

JOB(S)

Today the manager of the Valley Hunt Club and I finally got in touch. I have an appointment with him tomorrow to fill out paperwork. I hope that all works out and I do get the job. He thinks that it shouldn't be a problem. He had to check how close I was related to the Hamlin that was a member. He thinks that it shouldn't be a problem.

Speaking of jobs, I also applied to work at VONS. I applied online last night. I am waiting to hear from them. It might be cool if I could end up taking both jobs. Get to earn even more money.

Home Sweet Home

Some photos from the drive home.
Now I am home for the summer!! I can't believe that my first year of college is already over.
I am a sophmore in college!!! AHHHH!!

i did it again

so i got this impulse to experiment with my hair again. so i tried to dye my hair blonde just for kicks. and welll it did not work at all. it looked blonde in some lights and in others it just looked orange... bleh. so i went back the the store and bought some dark brown dye. and i dyed my hair again! this time it worked out much better. now my hair is a dark brown and it looks much better. i like it much better.

good day

today (monday that is) was overall a good day. i had a good talk with Helen today. i appreciate how we can talk about real issues and deep stuff and be comfortable about it.

i also watched some of the swim meet that both Helen and Cory participated in. i was impressed. they are very good swimmers. Helen is a crazy fast swimmer!! i was blown away.

work was slow again but not boring. hayley was there and there is never a dull moment with this girl. plus terri-ann is a good supervisor. it was a fun time.

then i went to Starbucks with Cory. we got time to just chat and hang out. discussing things from next semester to old crazed drama teachers. good times.
