| Poetry, photography, thrifting, oh my! |
| 08.28.04 (8:32 pm) [edit] |
So today I went thrifting with Sara. It was very fun, and while I found no shoes (bah!) I found jackets, a shirt, jewelery, coka cola glasses, and...get this...a $4, archaic...archaic!...camera. The poor little thing was stuck in the shoes, they didn't know what to do with it.
It's so much fun! It's so old it a) doesn't tell me how many pictures are taken, b) has no flash, c) needs no battery. I love it. I put a thing of film in (after finally figuring out how) and have taken 13 pictures (that's being kept track of on a sticky note). It's unbelievable how archaic this thing is. Incredible. It's also a ...what would it be called, view lens? You look through the view finder, and its to the left of the actual lens, so you have to compensate by moving the camera...lol. It's WONDERFUL.
So I found (or well, Sara did) a very cute purple jacket, full length sleeves with a built in "hankie" in the pocket. It's cute...lavender, I'd say. I wore it to dinner with my pleated brown, black and pink skirt (cute mix, actually). I also purchased a jacket that is a floral print...a little large, so I'm going to put another button on it and hem it up. Thanks to Sara's help, hehe. Both the jackets were $4. I got hoop earrings for less than a dollar, a very cute pink bracelet with a heart on it for $2, and then my $1 Coke mugs, and my camera. Oh also, I got a beige colored shirt with sleeves that I love, for $3. I'm so picky about sleeves... I hate my upper arms, so my resolve is "when not working on them, cover them up" lol. It's a comfy shirt.
So we went to five thrift stores, from Clairemont to PB to Bay Park. We stopped at "Chipotle" for lunch, which was really yummy (I had two tacos with grilled chicken, salsa, lettuce, etc. on them). I'd never eaten there before, so it was fun. If I ever get a hankering there's one in Grossmont, so yay.
I really overuse the word "so." It's such a useful, annoying connector.
I have to go to Payless to find some shoes, and I still need some shirts, but other than that I think I'm ready for school.
I may need to get a couple of more books, if I end up taking philosophy, but that'll be determined Tuesday. :)
Had kung fu this morning. Guess who was there? Guess who didn't talk to him? Sara got to see him, and she agrees "he's cute." :) And he is. lol.
My family was ragging on me at dinner tonight (Yay, Terra!) about not talking to Mr. Kung Fu. I still think the whole tripping thing (i.e. first grade mentality) would really work. It'd start a conversation for sure. *g*
I keep daydreaming about him. *sigh* My mom's threatening to talk to Mr. Kung Fu Teacher about Mr. Kung Fu. *shakes head* aie yi yi, my family... :) If it's bound to happen it'll happen, yeah? Yeah.
So homework for the rest of the weekend (now I only have half a page to write about a poem, and to finish Antigone!) and maybe going to payless to find some flats. I was close to getting some today, but they were just a bit too small. Darn my feet for not being 8's! haha
I think I'll go work on my half a page on "Thanks" (By Yusef Komunyakaa, go, read it!) then go to sleep. Later schmators.

Back from Kung fu!
On a monday night? Yeah, crazy aint it? We did a lot of shuffling tonight...my feet feel like they're bleeding...oowww.
So, why did miss Something-hurts-do-I-have -to-go-tonight go to Kung Fu on a monday night?
Let's say I have...inspiration now. His name is Mr. ______. I don't know his first name, because we go by last names at kung fu. He's very cute. I don't know how old he is. All I know is he's old enough to drive, so I have some hope that he's not, ya know, really young. I hope he's older than me, but if he's at least 17...lol.
*sigh* He's very quiet...I've never even talked to him...but he's a very cute Blue Sash, and I can't stop thinking about him.
He was not there tonight, but his brother was. *pout* He should be there tomorrow night. The chances of that are good.
The chances I talk to him? Not so great. I'm so freaking shy. Gaah!!! *pulls hair*
So in other news. My mom and I took Norman (my doggie) for a drive today. I had to check out fiesta island for my bonfire saturday, so we took him along. He's so cute. I love him.
I think I've found a good spot on the island. It should be fun...I'll take blankets, a cooler, stuff for smores, a boombox (yeah...I still call it a boombox...in fact, I still HAVE an honest to God "marketed as" Boombox) Cd's... I'm excited. I hope all my favorite people come! haha. Actually, most of the people I invited are coming, so I'm glad. N, D, B, J, L, K, C, J, D, T, S, myself...lol. M and possibly N for a short time.
Haha. I am miss vague.
So, we went to La Quinta. That was fun. It rained a lot, lightning, thunder, etc. so less swimming than I'd hoped. And I gained four (@$%#&^*) pounds. But it was fun. M and N and their folks came up on Friday and hung out with us (whoo!) and we had lots of fun, that included: Drinking orange cream things from TGIF's...alcohol. haha. Showering. bwaha. "Swimming" Talking Eating Cuddling Devulging secrets. and etc.
Twas fun times. I can't wait for our road trip...it's either going to be the funnest thing ever or one of us is going to end up dead. Either way...
I'm sweaty, stinky, and kinda erg-ed that there are no women's gymnastics tonight!, so I'll go shower. Later, loves.

I just hit my knee. OW.
So, Thank the Almighty Ambien gods but I slept from 1 am to 9:45 this morning. WHEEEEE *does twirls* That's almost 9 hours people, in the right slot of time!
*happy sigh* Sleep! whoo. And I woke up myself. With no alarm, no mom "helping"... :)
This is uber good news.
So I got up, cleaned my room a bit, and am now down here checking my FL. Nicole and Marie and their fam is coming out for Dinner, and I'm glad. It should be fun.
My room is messy and I need to eat and shower. Random!
I'm still tired, which is making me twitch, but I can't expect miracles from one night.
Anyway, later. I'm out. :)
