Went into the city (NYC, of course) by myself for the first time on Thursday. Woohoo for long train rides...And just think, that I'll have to do this twice every day. Fabulous, I say. Fabulous. Stopped by the office for a few hours, but I left 'cause I was getting hungry. Heh heh. -_-;; Bought (and devoured) this really awesome onion pocket thing from the bread store just inside Penn Station, Z------something. Oh, and turns out I have to go to work half an hour earlier than I had originally been told, so guess who's taking a 7:07 am train? <(-_-)> *bows* Yes indeedy.
Florida was a dream. Got sunburned at the beach, but while I was at the beach...Glorious. Couldn't have asked for more. Kareem's family was awesome, and his friends were even cooler. Got some hilariously awesome shirts at Hot Topic, and Lisa liked them enough to claim them for herself. That's such a rare thing, that I'm just gonna let it happen and merely occasionally borrow them from her. Saw Pirates 3 twice last weekend; fell asleep for most of the second time - my excuse is that I had just gotten off a plane ride and that I had a long, busy day. Great movie though. My peanut.
Annnnnnnnnd I miss him a lot. Cried a little uncontrollably yesterday. It might have been at least partially due to finally realizing that I won't see him for at least two weeks. I mean, sure, a lot of people engage in long-distance relationships, knowing that they won't see each other for month-long (or months-long) stretches, and I have a lot of friends in that situation over the school year, but it hurts, dognabbit. My mother says that I'll know I'm at least a little bit in love if my heart hurts at times, and it most definitely does. Hardly ever because of anything Kareem does/doesn't do, though; gotta say that he's really awesome in that department of boyfriendery. Anyway, back to the crying. I was on the phone with Kareem, and for some reason, the tears just kept coming out. No idea why. I wasn't even consciously sad or upset, but my tear ducts were obviously expressing some emotion, and I couldn't stop the tears or the sniffles. I tried to convey this to Kareem, and he understood, but just like me, he wasn't completely sure how to react. He did offer to listen, though, and that's a pretty good indication that he's a keeper. Or something. >_< So why won't I see him for at least two weeks? First of all, I'm rounding a little bit. o_O Second of all, his job's probably not starting until later, but even so, he'll just be prolonging his stay in Florida, since that's the logical choice (I'm with him all school year, so I really shouldn't whine). I most likely will not see him until the weekend after his job officially starts, if he can even come down that weekend at all. If that's not viable, I'll see if I can make it up there to see all the peeps and especially him.
That was a sorry bit of blather up there. Feel free to forget it right...now.
So this weekend...I plan to finally upload those hundreds of pictures to Facebook. Party. A heckuva bunch of my friends are taking the SATs this morning, so hopefully they're doing something exciting and my-time-worthy afterwards. Got to schedule in some time for fantasization. Best. Thing. Ever. Going to finish another part of "The Weekend Begins." Maybe stop by Barnes and Noble and read more gossip girl if they have the second one. This one is so bad about restocking too, so it could be a while. Just got into the series yesterday, when I spent about four hours reading two entire teen novels (I rediscovered my affinity for reading). It's thrillingly prep-school-dramatic.
Breakfast time now. I'll post again when I come up with schtuff to say.
