I went to my first "real" party last night and had my first shot of imported Irish whiskey. Followed by a shot of rum, then a few shots of gin (I HATE GIN UGH). Whiskey is the best tasting and feeling of the three by far, and is the first alcohal I've tried that I actually enjoy.
And along with all of that, I got smoked up for the first time since Mike's birthday. The two combined were crazy cool. Bryan and I left the party and went shopping for sexyclothes and played dressup/picture time (laptop has a built in webcam). AND HE LET ME DO HIS MAKEUP. XD!!!! He said he'd go halves with me on a camera so we can get a nice one for our moneymakinz. XD We really need to get going on that.
I'm back on raw foods pretty hardcore and eating a lot of greens. It does wonders for the skin. And energy levels, holy shit. Bryan and I had some pretty fucking amazing sex today. It had been too long. We were both in a grumpy, lazy slump eating sugary crap for a while. No moar, plzkthx! ^-^
Hanging out with my mom was a blast (<0.o>) Yes. A blast. XD!!! I looooove Twilight, but I don't love Edward because he looks too much like Bob the shminx and that's really fuckin' creepy. We had DiGiorno, and I slept in my old bed. First bed I've slept in since I moved out.
Friday we went for a drive, then went to Denny's for burgers (why I decided I needed a rawfood detoooox UGH XD) and went on a really long walk in the woods (no wonder Jen had a blast XD WALKING) and I've convinced her to start walking with me every Friday now. We've never gotten along this well before. I'm so happy.
Cammy came in yesterday to see me at work! And I was already off the clock, so we got to hug and chat and stuff! I miss her. We're gonna get so much food together. Melissa too. We're gonna go to Little Italy and get cannoli and cassata cake.
I start fall bellydance classes at the dance academy this Wednesday. I'm so excited!
I have a few people wanting to buy kale chips and chocolate coconut balls from me, so Imma get to cookin'. XD
Bryan watched the first NANA movie with me and he liked it. ^-^ I BET I'M SO BEHIND ON THE MANGA! EEEP!
Made me miss my kuzn hardcore.
I LOVE YOU, KUZN! WE SO NEED A NANA PARTY!!!
I've decided to brew up some mead. For those of you unfamiliar with what in the name of pants I'm going on about, please, do let me clarify. Mead is an alcohalic beverage made from honey. (I can see Niki's eyes widening already. XD) I also added apple slices and small amounts of cinnamon, ginger, allspice, nutmeg, cloves, and cardamom. It will be ready in exactly two months - on October thirty-first. Since this is my first go at it, I'm just doing a gallon.
Also, some time this coming month I'm going to make some cider, so that it will be mellowed nicely in time for my twenty-first birthday. Though it'll probably just save a little for that night, because apparently I'm going barhopping. XD It should still taste nice after just a few months of aging, so it'll be nice to have for late fall and early winter.
I'm making an awesome silver chain for the pendant I made last night.
And my sister moved out and is in an apartment with two guys and a girl.
Bryan and I plan to visit in October or November.
I'm spending the night at my mom's Thursday and we're watching Twilight.
Leo's such a good snugglecat.

While it is a day meant to celebrate our "freedom" from a much better country, I must try to remind myself that I should be happy about it, because if my ancestors had not come to this land and "mingled" with the natives, I would not be here to type this. Shame they won the war though, eh? Thanks anyway, guys.
Sorry it's been so long. First I spend like an entire week at Niki's, and was simply having too much fun (AND WALKING TOO MUCH. HOLY SHIT.) to type. Then after I got back home, my mom decided I don't do enough chores to deserve internet access. Fine, mother. I won't use the computer. But don't come complaining to me when you're sad because you pay all this money out every month for absolutely no reason.
Anyway, I managed to get it back two days ago (after spending the entire day pulling weeds and mowing the lawn) but I just couldn't be bothered to type until now.
So, during my week at Niki's (more or less) I experienced many things. There was walking. And some more walking. Lots of penises and drunk girls. (Aunt Sandy's bachelorette party.) Dancing ALL night (ending around 6am when I went for a walk). Getting invited to an Autumnal Equinox bonfire at my aunt's. A metric shit-ton of Pokemon. Pizza. Crisis. Parents sucking at being parents. Rain. Sun. Waiting four hours for Wendy's to open and then deciding not to take Devin's money. Sitting awkwardly while Devin and Chris ate. Walking. Getting invited to the bridal shower at 10pm. Tv shows about fat people. Being Aunt Sandy's "amateur nutritionist" until the wedding. About six more shit-tons of pokemon. Spending ten years trying to get a ride to the store. Flat tire. Walking in the rain. At night. Imagining being pulled over for weaving on the sidewalk. Hiding my cards for fear of them being stolen. Along with everything else I brought over. The Espeon-Charmeleon incident. Niki, the fairest bitch of them all. XD Amazing water from Iceland. Strawberries. Blueberries. Making the best blueberry pancakes ever with Niki. Poo that looked like charcoal from eating so many blueberries... and that's probably a good place to stop.
I felt a bit slow for not realizing it earlier, but I've figured out what I want to do with my life... as far as a first career goes. I'm going to be a nutritionist. I've been interested in how food affects the body since like sixth grade when my mom took interest in Somersizing (Suzanne Somers' weight loss eating plan), and over the last year or so I've become completely obsessed with natural health. And people are always asking me, you know, "Is this healthy? What about this?" And I'm always trying to push my views about food on other people, so what better job would the be for me than telling people what to eat?! XD!!! I just can't believe it took me so long to figure out. It wasn't until I started planning stuff with Aunt Sandy that it really clicked.
The problem was, though, that my college didn't have a program for that. So, I started researching and in just a few hours I found my dream school. It's an online school, so I wont have a schedule to work around when I try to get a job (SOON). It's almost the same price as Land O'Lakes. EVERY class is directly related to the career. There are no pointless unrelated requirements. You can work at your own pace, so as long as I can afford it, I can finish up faster. Anyway, it's called Clayton College of Natural Health. It's accredited by a credible-looking source, though the accreditor is not on the U.S. Department of Education's list. That doesn't mean that the material and degrees are not legitimate, though. It ony means that graduates of the college won't be able to participate in certain federally sponsored events that require the title (Ph.D., etc.) they earned there. I looked through the list and there isn't even an accreditor there that's for nutrition in any way shape or form. Fuck you, Department of Education. You and your love o'drugs. I may become an herbalist too.
I also met a lovely dragonfly when I was weeding the front flowerbed. I really wish I'd never sat on my camera. I still can't afford to get a new one yet. I don't even know if I'll be able to afford my books for school. My mom offered to help me with my books a few weeks back if I couldn't afford it. I may have to use the $150 that Cameron gave me for graduation to use for an emergency. The tuition is quite literally all of my savings. I'll have thirty-five dollars left. So now I can't even get a laptop yet. Gimme dat jarb.
I've started doing yoga again. I've finally managed to get myself on a... not quite NORMAL, but rather, an EARLIER sleeping schedule. I've been waking up in time to do this yoga program that's on at 6am on the Oxygen network, called Inhale. I discovered it after staying up all night watching infomercials one new years eve (or rather, day) a few years back. I would stop for different reasons. Either I'd have to go to school half way through, or they would replace it for a while with Xena, or I just couldn't bother to get up that early, etc., etc. For the last year though, my main reason was that my wrist has grown this big crazy bump, and it would hurt when I did poses that require you to put your hands on the floor put weight on them. But, I'm managing to do it without much discomfort, and I'm convinced that it's going to go away. I thought so for a long time, just because it would fluctuate in size, sometimes shrinking. But when Niki's mom mentioned yoga when we were talking about stress last week, I showed her and she said she had the exact same thing and it went away (after some years, but still).
Also, I walked to the library last week (which took about an hour) and picked up a couple books.
