Wednesday, August 28, 2002 ( 6:08 AM ) shut up christine I move back into the dorms in one week and I have accomplished nothing this summer. Take yesterday for example...was I productive? Hells no. I drew an Enrique Iglesias mole on my face and sang "You can run you can hide but you can't escape my love" as I skateboarded past my hot neighbor's house for two hours. Me, stalker? What gave you that idea? The only remotely productive thing I've done is come to the realization that if I lie down and stare at my sister's floral print wallpaper, my eyes will automatically cross themselves. Yup, that's my whole summer in a nutshell. # Saturday, August 10, 2002 ( 2:46 PM ) shut up christine Last night's weezer show = amazing. Best weezer concert I've seen yet. Thanks for coming with me Mel and Flo!! I sooo desperately want to talk about it but I shan't, because I can just see it now..... Me: OH MY GOODNESS Weezer yadda yadda etc. etc. (continue babbling for 40 minutes) Isn't that wonderful, Jessica?!?! Jess: Wha? Oh sorry I wasn't listening. Me: *shakes fist at Jessica* # Monday, August 05, 2002 ( 4:21 AM ) shut up christine It breaks my heart to announce that my dearly beloved goldfish, Choco and Fishflake, passed away quietly on August 4, 2002 due to an accidental overdose of fishfood administered by my little cousin Alex. Choco and Fishflake were purchased in September of 2001 at Tropical Fish Paradise. They remained my constant loyal companions during my freshman year of college. I shall never forget the countless times they selflessly stayed up all hours of the night to keep me company whilst I completed last minute homework assignments, all the while encouraging and pushing me to keep going. Never once did they complain when I forgot to feed them. Although I am deeply pained by their passing, I’m comforted that the two died in each other’s embrace, with full tummies. Choco and Fishflake, thanks for the all the memories...I love you and I’ll miss you. R.I.P. Choco and Fishflake September 2001 - August 2002 # Friday, August 02, 2002 ( 6:00 AM ) shut up christine My older sis turned 21 on July 31st. Good gravy, she's 21 years old! And I'm freakin 19! When did this happen? I remember a million summers ago when I knew all the words to the Alvin and the Chipmunks theme song and we went door-to-door selling homemade perfume. I thought David Hasselhoff on Knight Rider was the coolest guy on earth (woah… did I just say that?) We lived in biker shorts and made dance routines to Janet Jackson. Two and a half people could fit on the bike with the long banana seat. We had water fights with our neighbors all the time and Nickelodeon had the best shows. At night we'd bring out the radio and all the girls would practice their cartwheels on the grass. I had a crush on the boy across the street because he offered to tow me on his bike whenever I went skating. Those summers were the best. But no one ever comes out anymore. The guy I used to have a crush on…I haven’t seen him in a long time. I just found out that his parents might kick him out of the house for dropping out of college and possibly getting his girlfriend pregnant. I can’t believe I’m talking about the same guy, the same kid who played tetherball everyday in front of my house, and sat with me on the sidewalk eating crushed ice and Kool-Aid. Growing up sucks sometimes. # |
