Good-bye Summer :(

Why does summer always have to go by so quick? :/ School starts in two days. I'm excited for it to start, but at the same time, I kinda don't want to go because that means we start doing work again. :p

So, what have I been up to for the past couple months? Just enjoying my vacation before school starts. The week I put up my last blog post, My family and I took a road trip to Las Vegas. We stayed there for a couple days, going sight-seeing and taking a lot of pictures. It was nice to go out of town for a while, but the drive getting there and back took FOREVER. What didn't help was the heat. It was windy there, but it was hot wind. xp I had tons of fun though. :D

A couple days after we came back, my dad drove my older cousin and I to the Staples Center in LA. (UGHH... more driving) We attended one of the Jonas Brothers' concerts there that weekend. :D It was absolutely crazy. There was so many people there... It kind-of had that wow-factor, especially if you didn't know what's going on. :) There were a lot of acts at the concert. Honor Society performed first. They're kind-of a new band with a unique sound. If you haven't heard their new single 'Over You,' go check it out. :) After Honor Society, the Wonder Girls performed one of their songs. They're this famous group from Asia, and the song they performed ('Nobody') was extremely catchy. :D Jordin Sparks came on after them. She was good also. I love most of the songs she played. When the Jonas Brothers came on, it was so loud. It got kind-of worse though because the girls sitting on the row above us were so loud. It practically hurt my ears the whole entire time we were there. But the Jonas Brothers were amazing. :) I had a great time at that concert. :D (Don't I always??)

For the rest of summer, I pretty much stayed at home. Did my usual: use the computer, watch tv, listen to music, sleep in. I met up with some of my friends a couple times. Other than that, that's pretty much it. So, are you ready for school? Cause I am... Well, just a little. It's something I'm looking forward to though. I pretty positive this year will be a good one.

Bring it on, Sophomore Year. :)

Busy, Busy, Busy.

That's pretty much how it's been like for the past 2 weeks and this week also. So, here's the run down on how summer's been since my last blog post.

July 4 wasn't really anything that special. Just got together with my family and some relatives. We weren't able to watch any fireworks though, which was kind-of sad. At the end of the day, I felt like it wasn't really a holiday because there was something missing. With that same set of family and friends, we went to SeaWorld the next week. I was able to see Shamu again :) which I pretty much do every time I go there. The only difference was getting completely soaked and walking around the park like that until you're completely dry, which (I have to admit) took almost forever. That day was pretty fun, but tiring. At the end of the day, I pretty much looked like a vampire. My eyes were red, I was SOO pale, and my hair and clothes were a mess. I got home a little late, so I wasn't able to get enough sleep because I had church the next day. Then, the week after that, I pretty much just stayed at home, doing the usual: on the computer, listening to music, play video games, and a couple more other stuff.

Two weeks ago was the beginning of my summer bridge training. It was fun. We were able to play a lot of fun activities, but there was the work also. I was partnered up with my best friend though, so it was cool. :) During that we week, we pretty much just prepared ourselves for the actual bridge program, which was the week after that. In case some of you didn't know, the summer bridge program is when the incoming freshies (my nickname for the freshman xD) come to our school and gets to see how it's like and how everything works. Almost like a sneak peek of the new year. :) I was able to be a leader/ mentor this year, instead of a student. The week of the actual summer bridge was just crazy. There were a lot of new people everywhere and I can tell they were a little hesitant in trying to meet new people. My partner and I's group was just "dysfunctional," not really, but kind-of. We originally had 5 people, but only 3 showed up the first day. The next day, only 2 showed up, but we had one more person added on to our group. The day after that, we lost the person who was added on the day before, but we were able to get another new person added. And it stayed like that for the rest of the week (thank goodness). It may look kind-of confusing, but not entirely. That week, we played a lot of activities and we had our group work on their mini-project, which was creating a proposal to the ASB. There were times when they were hard at work, but I would be uber bored. :p Then, we ended the week with presentations and a day at the mall. Have you ever stayed at a mall 6 hours straight before? With no shopping money or a reason to be there? That's pretty much what we did. ;) This weekend was pretty busy also. I spent mine with my entire family. It was pretty fun and very happy.

I've been having a lot of weird dreams lately. My last one had robots and aliens in it, which was pretty weird because it also had a storyline. It kind-of made me wonder where this dream came from, and why I dreamt it. It was also really vivid too, which is a highlight because I love vivid dreams. :D Some of my other dreams would just be really awkward or me ending up liking it. Most of the time it would be both. :)

Music during the summer is the best. I love how most of the time, CDs (I'm looking forward to) would come out during the summer. Have you heard All Time Low's "Nothing Personal?" I absolutely love that cd. I've been obsessed with it for the past couple weeks. So, it's playing non-stop. I've also been listening to Demi Lovato's new CD nonstop. Haha, I remember when I posted a blog post about Demi's first CD. That was such a long time ago. :)

Well, that's it for now. I better get going, ttyl. :)
