Half a Year in Review

January 31st, the last day of 2006. Let’s do a brief year in review for my enjoyment.

Took a 6am class whose material I will use for the rest of my life
“Graduated” with my class even though I failed a class
My granny visited for the whole summer
When to Philly for the for the first time
An old friend came back around a now as a stable spot in my life
My best friend moved to Ghana...come back LizO
My Granny passed away
Got into my first accident that was actually my fault...just a fender bender not to worry
Added 3 ppl to the list and did something new...eh


Those are just the things that come to mind off the top. Not to mention all the life lessons I’ve learned from doing this whole dating thing, which I thought, was new to me but really isn’t. I’m getting ready to get on a plane to head back home from packing up my Granny’s House which still isn’t complete and we had 2 weeks to do it. Part of the reason we didn’t was because we were waiting on my uncle to come through to pick out the things he wanted this past week, but because my uncle is…special, he didn’t show. In other words, we really didn’t start working till Wednesday afternoon. But we got a lot accomplished and our cool ass realtor is going to take care of the rest. At this point, I kinda don’t care about it cause I’m going home to a party. There are things on my to do list today… That’s sleep, drink and chill in my hotel with my friends. I’ve been waiting for this day for the past month but specifically for the past 2 weeks I’ve been here. MoX, here I come. If I can sneak out a few pics of the festivites, perhaps I will.

10 December 2006

This week is going to be relatively challenging. I have 2 exams and a paper to complete before Sunday. Now, if I do what I’m supposed to do it shouldn’t be a problem getting all this stuff taken care of but we know me, anything distracts me. Let’s just think positive thoughts and I’ll do my best to get it done.

I worked my bar job Friday and Saturday night and that went over pretty well. It was so cold on Friday and there weren’t that many ppl out at Heaven and Hell. Not to mention the heat wasn’t working upstairs in the club. Needless to say, I stayed down stairs and watched the Miami and Denver game. I did get 2 drinks and a shot though, and liquor is always a plus on the job. Saturday night, we only had a few lighters to give away, 44 to be exact so me and my other teammates only had to do 11 surveys apiece. On a normal night our goal is 30, so you can see why I was so excited. We were in and out in 45mins and definitely got paid for 8 hrs. Don’t you wish you had my job?

Tomorrow I have to work at B&BW and when get off, I’m going to go hang out with Grasshopper for the remainder of the day. We’ll finally get some quality “lay up under each other” time and that comes vary rarely. I have to savor as much of it as possible since I won’t see her for 2 weeks after that *sigh*

Moves to the other End of the Train...

Tomorrow is the big day. I have my Peace Corps interview at 9:30am in Arlington, Va. I’m not nervous at the moment but I probably will be come 9am. This is the first step in the Peace Corps application process…well actually, it’s the second. You submit your app, you’re interviewed, then you have to pass a background check and get a physical. Once all the ”preliminary stuff is done, then you have to be nominated by your regional office and then I go through some training for whatever I’m going to be doing and then they ship me off some where for 2 years. I couldn’t be more excited to start this process. I had to put it on hold temporarily because of the chem. thing but now I’m back on track. I just feel like this is the next step for me, cause I wasn’t feeling grad school seeing as though I just barely made it out of undergrad. And I wasn’t feeling jumping right into the work force especially after I found out all the places I could travel and things I could be doing with the Peace Corps. So, keep me lifted in prayer that I make a wonderful impression on these folks so they’ll nominate me.
In other news...I just realized that I have a week and a half before I have to go back to Cali. I can not express in words how much I am dreading going out there. The only solace I have is that I’ll be by the beach and that my cousins will be around…at least I think. I don’t know anyone out there and I won’t have a car. I’m going to be stuck in house where I’m used to my granny being there except she won’t be. And it Christmas...sheesh! I just hope we get everything done so no one has to go back and as rude as it sounds if we don’t finish, I’m not going back to help out.
On the up side the day I get back I will be going straight to my hotel for my New Years Party I’m having with some friends of mine. I booked a huge room in a Georgetown hotel (trust, I’m not ballin’) for two nights so that my self and 5 other friends plus whomever they decided to invite can chill out, get drunk and have a big lesbian orgy. I’m really excited about just being in a hotel, I love hotels. Maybe its just cause I don’t have my own space anymore...IDK. And that not having my own space thing...so crampin' dating/sex life ugh
I took Grasshopper to the paint your own pottery place . She had a good time and really liked the date (2pts for me!). Neither one of us finished so we have to go back, and we’ll definitely be going back to paint some more. I need to be sleep

1 part Moet 1 part X-Rated

Last night, I went out to Ft. Washington. I usually never head out that way cause is supper far but one of my friends just got a house out there so I wanted to see it. Plus Pie was having a get-together out that way. Ky’s new house is re-damn-diculous. It’s huge! Her brother and his friend live in the basement, which is basically a finished apartment, and Ky and her friend have the upstairs. The house is so nice. I just wish she didn’t live so far so I would go bug her on the regular. After I left her house I went to Pie’s house, which was another ridiculously large house. She actually lives with her grandparents. Everything was real chill until Tam and Gusto got there with half the liquor store in tow. Tam got behind the bar and started mixing stuff. Next thing we knew, everyone was supper drunk trying to play spades and it just wasn’t working out. One person passed out and someone else got sick...*note to self: get tam to bartend at the new years party* All in all it was a good time. I woke up this morning with a slight head ach but it’s way gone now. I bout to go in to work for the floorset, I just hope I’m not their till midnight. I’m not feeling that in my sprit

I've been Infected by the writting Bug...yet Again

Don’t you just love how I update every 3-6 months it’s great. I just get in to those moods were I wanna write about what’s going on with me. That’s the purpose of a blog anyway…right….RIGHT. So with that being said…

It’s currently the end of autumn, moving quickly in to winter and some things have obviously changed. I’m currently taking Chem II at PGCC and doing a distance learning directed reading about the South Pacific at my school. Plan is...
C in CHEM + A in the directed reading = BA Zoolgy

As of right now, the A is looking pretty good, I’ll get back to you on the Chem class in 2 weeks.Still working at Bath & Body Works and getting paid nothing and still doing the marketing job. bills are getting paid so no complaints in that arena. Energy came back around towards the end of the summer and we were kickin' it hard for a while. Now she's doing the work thing and I’m cool with that. LizO is in Ghana as of Nov 13, my Goose passed away Sep 19 and I’m going back to Cali to help Mommy pack up the house on Dec 17. I'm sure there's some other small stuff that took place between June and now but it's not coming to mind.
Ok now the good stuff. I’M DATING!

It's been a long time coming but I’ve finally got a nice group of ladies to entertain me (sounds kinda pimpish but I’m not meaning to be). Since i got out of my last serious relationship, i haven't had too much luck in the dating arena. I'd usually find some one pretty cool and then a month later, they'd be gone. Chalk it up to typical lesbian behavior. But at the moment I've been kickin' it pretty hard with one in particular Grasshopper (formerly MelD), she came back around in September or so and we've been enjoying each others company...a lot. There's Missy who's been around since the summer. She was crowding me in the beginning but she chilled out. I don't get to see her too often but she makes me smile too. There's someone else but in light of my track record, i'm not even going to mention her. She'll probably just end up being a friend although she's supper duper hot and has an ass like no other *drools*
Since this is the first entry in a while, I’m going to go ahead and end it. You'll get more details as i write more. I'm off to go enjoy my Saturday off, maybe I’ll call Missy
