In the US Virgin Islands, St. Thomas, following San Juan, Puerto rico. St. Maartin tomorrow. Snuba, biking, dresses, rum. Internet=$0.50 per minute. Still alive. All is well. Details to follow.

I am going on a cruise to the Bahamas on Saturday. My grandparents are taking the family- and by the family I mean 20 of my closest relatives- on a seven day cruise. I am really excited, but at the same time nervous. I have not spent significant time with my family since leaving for college, and I am worried that they will not approve of me, my ( Read more... )

I found this video on YouTube and it made me SO happy. Warning: it is by Sarah Silverman and called "Give the Jew Girl Toys", so if you are not prepared to be mildly offended, don't watch it. I, with my lack of any polite sensibilities, found it HILARIOUS.

OHMYGODOHMYGOD! Harry Potter Party tonight!!! I am running the games table. I am super duper amazingly excited! We are playing HP Apples to Apples, HP Wacky Words (a game like Scattergories), and a HP dice game at our Triwizard tournament. I cannot wait!

HARRY POTTER COMES OUT IN 3 AND A HALF DAYS!! I am getting paid to work the Potter party. How lucky is that? I will be representing Hufflepuff like there is no tomorrow in my Hufflepuff pride shirt. I have been listening to Draco and the Malfoys (courtesy of Emily) for days on end. I am ready. The only problem is that I work in the evening on ( Read more... )

He leaves tomorrow and, even after nearly two weeks of straight togetherness, I am far from sick of him. *sigh ( Read more... )

STEPHEN WILL BE HERE IN LESS THAN 4 DAYS! I AM SO EXCITED! YAY!

...you may now return to your regularly scheduled program...

Last night the police found my car. It was in a sketchy apartment complex that the cop just happened to be driving through. The license when it was scanned came up as stolen, and he sat there and waited for the "owner" to come out. The thief did not show, but they got lots of prints from the car. Hopefully they'll catch those bastards. The car ( Read more... )

I have to write another page. And then I am done for the semester. And I will be a senior in college. Part of me is ready, while the other part of me wants to do it all over again. Thanks for the kind wishes that y'all sent me. I had a rough finals week, but (knock on wood) it seems that everything will work out. I love you all dearly.
