In The Summertime

So this has been a terribly exciting summer so far. This is my second full week of being a graduate and I haven't done much. I've been really sick since Saturday and it's driving me nuts because it just won't go away =[ All I do is sleep, watch TV, eat small amounts, and sit in my room in the dark on the computer. Even the light makes me hurt. Plus it's hot outside and we have to have the air conditioner inspected before we can use it so blaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

Plans to go to Azkatraz have not developed. No one's mother will let them go without adult supervision, which is ridiculous because they're all 18.

I'M LOSING MY MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIND!

School's Out

So that's it...I'm officially a high school graduate! I have the snazzy diploma to prove it and everything. My graduation was last Thursday and all in all it went pretty well. Getting ready, on the other hand, was not so smooth haha. For some reason halfway through doing my makeup I started to panic and almost passed out. It was really awesome! But I pulled through and made it to the ceremony. Afterwards I went out to dinner with two of my best friends, Maggie and Christina. After thaaaat, we ran back to my house, changed, and headed over to the school to go to Grad Nite! Now, for all of you underprivileged [non-existent readers] who don't live in the Southern California area or didn't attend a school that participated, Grad Nite is an event held at Disneyland where the park is open only to graduates and their friends from midnight to six AM. Tons of kids from all different schools go and it's pretty crazy but awesome at the same time.

So we got to the school, I ran to 7-11 for a Red Bull and chugged it which resulted in a crazy energy burst, and then we boarded the buses. The one crappy thing about Grad Nite is they're super strict...no clothing identifying your school, no gum, no liquids, no purses bigger than a certain size, on and on the list went. They search your bag and pat you down before they let you in and apparently they don't do a good enough job because I still smelled pot around the park. We went on a few rides, had some food, did a little dancing (they set up dance clubs around the park), checked out the hourly fireworks show, and had a pretty good time. Pirates of the Caribbean did break down for 20 minutes while we were on it but it was all good. One of my favorite things about the night though was getting to see the sun come up while I was on Big Thunder Mountain. Not everyone gets to see the sun come up at Disneyland, let alone while they're on a roller coaster, so it was pretty amazing.

I made it into bed a little after 8 AM and slept for a good 7 hours and was fairly delirious for the rest of the day. Saturday I went to Universal Studios with some friends and had a really fun time despite the random rain in the morning. Sunday I had my first rehearsal for the Women Who Rock show at S.O.R. and that went about as well as a first rehearsal can go, haha. Today is pretty much my first day to myself in over two weeks and I've had a fairly nice time. I wanted to get a bunch of cleaning done, which I did clean a little but I also spent a good chunk of time watching TV and eating. I do love staying in my pajamas all day though =D Anyways, I'm either going to go clean some more or find something else to watch, so ciao for now!

Hot Stuff

Two men I have recently discovered (or rediscovered) and I think are completely gorgeous?

Matt Lanter


and

Oliver Reed


I discovered Matt Lanter through my extreme love of the show 90210, which he is [I believe] becoming a regular on. After seeing him on the show, I also realized that he was in WarGames: The Dead Code which I had on DVD but hadn't seen yet. I watched it today and even though the movie itself isn't the greatest, he's still gorgeous as usual.

Oliver Reed on the other hand...I fell in love with him when I was 5 or 6 the first time I saw Tommy. I remember that my brother accidentally left the VHS here and I watched it over and over again just to see this beautiful man. Eventually, however, my brother took the tape back and I forgot about Ollie. A few weeks ago, however, I realized I had the Tommy DVD but I hadn't watched the movie for a good 12 years, so I popped it in. I immediately remembered my prior fascination with Mr. Reed and it came back even stronger than before. After finishing the movie I looked up his info. online and was very saddened to see that he died 12 years ago...actually I watched the movie about 2 days after the 10th anniversary of his death.

I think I'm even more infatuated with Reed than Lanter, but I think Lanter's adorable and I figured it would be good to have at least one person who's still alive on this list. These also aren't the only celebrities I think are gorgeous, just two recent additions.

My friends and family think I have odd taste in men, but who cares? More for me =]

Love ya, Ollie!

Summer Nights

So prom was last Saturday, yayyyy! I wasn't quite sure if I was excited or not beforehand because I didn't have a date or anything, but it turned out to be amazing. I went in a Hummer limo with like 20 people, and we stopped at the beach beforehand to take pictures, but we didn't stay very long because it was freaking cold. Then we got to the venue, took our pictures, and had a little food (mm...cream puffs). They had blackjack tables, roulette, and craps, so Christina (my "date") and I spent a looot of time at the blackjack table. We had a ton of chips and we felt like dancing so we blew them all to go to the dance floor. It was only after that did someone tell us that there was a raffle and how many tickets you got depended on how many chips you had. Needless to say, we were pretty pissed. We did some dancing and then went back to gaming. I won back a fair amount of chips and turned them in for tickets. Everyone also got a paper voucher for 100 chips worth of tickets. I turned in mine, one I found on the floor, and 4 from friends who didn't want theirs. I went back to dancing and then someone asked me if I knew they were doing the raffle inside (as there was an indoor and outdoor dance floor and the outdoor guy was playing way better music so we stayed out there). I made it just as they were raffling off the grand prize. Called one number...no one came. Called another number...no one came. Finally, the third number they called was mine, and I won a brand new black 8 GB iPod Nano and a $35 gift certificate to Target, so that was pretty awesome. After that a bunch of people got together to do karaoke, and we did a 6 person version of Summer Nights from Grease. Eventually midnight rolled around and we had to leave. We rode back in the limo and then Christina and I drove over to Denny's (which we do after every dance) and met up with a bunch of people for food and fun. It was an awesome night and I'm sad it ended so quickly.

In other news, my Macbook took a dump. I had to send it out for service and I won't have it back until next week. Blahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh =[ I did get the Sims 3 though, so that's pretty sweet.
