Saturday 6/29/02 ~ Dealing
with Baggage
11:01 pm ~ going with the flowWow it's been a long time since I've updated. Well school started on Monday. That went ok I guess. There's too much work to do for a summer! But at least I know that after summer school I'll be caught up in terms of units. I finally got things worked out with my Music class. Unfortunately I have about three quizzes every week which stinks. But I found a way to "get around" working too hard so I might keep this class on a letter grade. My birthday on Thursday went well. I had a full day of class during which there was only one thing on my mind so I guess you could say I didn't enjoy my day too much. But in the evening I came home, wrapped Rad's gift and we all went to Macaroni Grill where this lady sang me a song in Italian about some ship named Luciana. The chocolate cake they gave afterwards was really good. I'm not used to saying I'm 20. When I was mentioning last how I'm in my 20s now, it felt like I was reciting dialogue or something. I'll get used to in time. Good news is I was probably more depressed about turning 20 than I am about being 20. I also found out that I share my birthday with a lot of people! Captain Kangaroo, Helen Keller, Mario, Adam, Jonathan, and Stephanie ! (Which is weird considering how much else I think we have in common!) Speaking of her she emailed me back! I really hope I can talk more with her. Yesterday I went out again for my birthday with Pooja, Vas, Rad, Stacey and Kav. That was fun too. We went to this Mexican place called Left at Albuquerque in Palo Alto. The food was all right. The cilantro rice was kind of strange but that's cuz I don't like cilantro. Mixed in with the sauce and stuff it was good though. Afterwards we walked around University Ave which was beautiful! It wasn't too cold in the evening either so that was really nice and refreshing. We also stopped by at Borders during our walk. It looked gorgeous from the outside. And inside of course was nice. I was a bit embarrassed about explaining my medical history in front of everyrone but I guess that was my choice too because I know how some people get when others point out that I have gained weight and I didn't want them to have that satisfaction. So in the end it was an ego thing so I have no right to complain but it was embarrassing none the less. Thank you Kav for the awesome gift! I went to sleep last night dreaming of chocolate! Hehe. Thanks also for letting me see a different side before I did something I may have regretted. Thanks to Rad for the super gift as well! I can never have enough copies of that movie! I should probably go do my homework. I have to read at least four chapters and then work on my speech because tomorrow I won't get anything done. Why? Cuz tomorrow's our COOKING FEST! Wohoo ! |
