happy bday...well, to me!: i am now 25 years old. omg. that sounds so old. >.< can't believe it. i'm a quarter of a century old. and i'm still living with my parents. with no boyfriend. i'm depressed. jk! b/c... i got so many bday wishes from pple today! i really didn't expect much. i expected a couple of pple (ann & sean), but not really anybody else, but i was so pleasantly surprised by all who wrote, called, or text messaged(andrew!), or both (ann!). it really did make my day. cuz what did i do today...? woke up with a dull headache. not good. took a freakin' 2 hr test. sheesh. then had a crappy lunch. went to school for only an hr. then the freakin' principal traps my car in b/c NOBODY told me that i parked in her space. so she takes her darn time to get out to move her volvo (since when did DISD principals gets VOLVOS???). but after that, things were good. well, kinda. i went to michael's to buy more cross-stitch floss (string in laymen's terms), however, they didn't have 1 color so i ended up not buying any. then i went to the container store which is like 7th heaven to me. bought a receipt organizer (my dad makes me save my receipts) and a newspaper organizer (for my dad and his endless collection of newspaper piles around the house). then my family and i went to the elephant bar for dinner. cheaply priced, but i guess it coincides with the quality. it looks nice, but ends up being only ok. but we had a 20% coupon and i got a free bday sundae so it was alright. i guess the "highlight" of my day was watching the red sox/yankees game where the red sox won. which leads me to my current fixation these days... baseball! man, if you're not watching the red sox/yankees series...you're missing out. the houston/st louis one ain't bad either, but nobody cares about them. haha. but you just want the yankees to lose, ya know? my dad's rooting for the yankees and me, of course, the underdogs, boston. and boston came back from 3 games DOWN to tie it up. that's amazing. and really fun to watch. who thought baseball would or could be this interesting? i think what started it for me was when the rangers were kinda in playoff contention. they were doing really well for the last 2 weeks, but the rangers just aren't good enough. maybe next year. but yeah, baseball's intriguing these days. well, the Church situation SEEMED to be over, but it ain't. and that sux. it was all coming to a close when someone decided to step in again. when all is said and done i'll write about it, but then it probably won't be of much interest to any of ya'll anyway. i think the worst thing that has happened to me since i got back was realizing that most of my pics from korea/japan are probably lost. i made a data cd of my pics and found it to be cracked yesterday. both my and my sister's computers would not read it and i called around only to find out it was hopeless. i could feel tears welling up in my eyes. for someone who loves pictures as much as i do, it's a big deal. maybe not for some of ya'll, but for me, it was huge. i was relieved to find that i had saved a few of my favorites on my extra memory card, but it's not all. and the stupid webshots, NEVER USE THEM, has deleted most of my pics. those that i'll never get back. so my only hope is to have my cousin send her cpu back with my mom so i can get some of the saved photos i had on her computer (she had no burner...long story) so i can get maybe about 50% of my pics back. but yeah, i probably don't have 60% of my photos. sux. 2 of my cousins are getting married in november. one cousin in korea and one cousin in america. i'm going to the 'american' wedding (in florida) b/c my cousin, the groom, needed more family members to attend. and i hardly know him. sad, huh? my aunt's even paying for our hotel and plane tickets. so i'll be heading to florida the first weekend of nov for a beach wedding. no kidding. should be cool, i guess. my family is set on me NOT wearing black to the wedding (or to any of the wedding festivities), but we'll see about that. my family seems to be fixated on PINK which i absolutely HATE. they all claim that i SHOULD like it and that's the 'popular' color now. wtfreak? pink makes me sick. and the funny thing was, my mom and my sister kept PICKING PINK outfits when we went shopping last saturday. and my mom gives me PINK ROSES (i don't like roses either...i like calla lilies & gerber daisies), a PINK envelope with a PINK card with PINK roses inside it for my bday today. i think my family thinks i like pink deep down inside or something b/c they could not be this stupid. could they??? alright, enough blabbing. other than that, things are alright i guess. i feel like i'm kinda at a lull right now. things are just THERE. but hopefully that lull will go away soon. thanks for all the birthday wishes ya'll! ;D have a great week!
