I have a habit of getting into things significantly after they’ve ended.  In this case, it really only ended last month, technically, but I think episodes were leaked out before then, so I’m probably a couple months late, at least.  What I am talking about is Avatar: The Last Airbender.  OK, I first saw the [...]

I’ve finished my first week of school and man am I tired.  I even have dark circles around my eyes, but that could just be from the 90+ degree heat we’ve been having lately.  The month is almost over too, so I’ll try to write somewhat more than usual, finish things off with a bang, [...]

Coincidence?

A while back, I noticed something strange.  Sarah Chalke is on a commercial for Hanes panties, and Zach Braff voices the Cottonelle (toilet paper) puppy.  See a theme?  I haven’t seen any other Scrubs cast members in commercials recently, but Scrubs’ eighth and (probably) final season will air on ABC for the 08-09 season.  There’s [...]

Well, I’ve completed my second day of school.  There’s a three-day weekend coming up since we hav Labor Day off, but I don’t get why they don’t just start school after Labor Day, since having a day off one week into school seems odd to me.
I just saw the new episode of Mythbusters, and, I [...]

Today was the first day of a brand new school year.  I’m exhausted now.  While school itself doesn’t actually make me sick, having to bend my neck to read and work, along with the abundant pine trees (whose pollen I’m allergic to) on campus leaves me headachy and sniffly.  And it’s just getting to be [...]

For anyone who’s actually keeping up with this, sorry for not posting on Saturday or Sunday.  The internet and phone connections have been out at my house since Saturday, and we couldn’t get them fixed until today.
School is starting tomorrow, somehow.  Where did Summer go?  Oh well, I’d better go and do some stuff to [...]

My relatives are leaving early tomorrow morning, and I’m not sure what we’re going to do with all the extra Coke.  My aunt is addicted to Coca-Cola, but none of us drink it, and she bought a ton of it when she first came here.
Mini-golf and the Arcade
Today we went out to play mini-golf.  I [...]

Today, we went to Half Moon Bay.  It’s the closest place with ocean access, since Santa Cruz is an hour away, and Monterey is a couple hours away.
It was around lunch time when we got there, so we went to a cafe for lunch.  At each table was a set of trivia cards (a [...]

Just in Time!

Today I went to San Francisco with my relatives. We left around 12:30 or so. The first thing we did when we got there was go to the wharf, the area where you can see all of the sea lions. They’re awfully noisy creatures, which was magnified by my cousin’s incessant arf-ing. [...]

August 18th (?!)

Once again, I am extremely tired.  Today, we went to the mall.  I am outraged that my favorite smoothie store has been replaced by a menswear store with an unpronounceable name.  As a Dillard’s store manager, my aunt said that the Macy’s here is not well maintained enough, and that it would be much more [...]

The Fair

Today, we (me, my mom, my aunt, and my cousin) went to the fair, as today was the last day it was open. I was really bummed out to find that Weird Al had been there Friday, but oh well.
The first thing we did when we got there was go to the 4-H exhibit, [...]

Ugh, I’m tired.  My young cousin and my aunt just came a few hours ago, and already I’m exhausted.  And how is it the 16th already?!  Uguu…
Today, while I was at the coffee shop next to the grocery store, I saw a man park his car in the parking lot between the two buildings.  Which [...]

I have a bit of cabin fever right now.  I pretty much spent the whole day cooped up in here.  My aunt and my cousin are coming tomorrow evening, and there was cleaning to be done.  Well, there’s always cleaning to be done, but today I was organizing a particularly problematic area of our living [...]

A couple days ago, this year’s school information packet arrived in the mail, but we didn’t look at it until late last night.  In my house, apart from the necessary forms that we’re actually required to fill out, this sort of thing is mainly just, well, snark bait.
In the folder, there’s a sheet about some [...]
