Sunday, Blood Sunday

I'm back home. I love being home - but then again, I can't take it. I guess it goes along with not having a car and right now, that's my biggest priority.

But for now, I have some errands to complete today.

I miss Washington. I miss the intense freedom of just walking out, taking a bus, and going wherever the hell I wanted. It was nice. I think that's why I love cities so much and that's why I'm so independent. After seven years of being raised in New York City (and still pretty much going every weekend anyways as a kid), I became so used to it all. When I was 14 or younger (Forgot) I would walk to free Carnegie Hall concerts by myself. It didn't faze me that I was just a young kid. I just had fun and loved it.

The reason why I didn't hang out with much friends in Washington was because I loved doing my own thing and just thinking to myself. I had a lot of fun kayaking on the Potomac by myself because I was just able to think while the waters were under me, literally. It was one of the best feelings - seriously. The sights, the sounds, the Kennedy Center right there. Taking pictures was also a ton of fun too! Not to mention, I wasn't even sore afterwards. My roommates said they were going to be sore.. but I'm not sure. Who knows, right?

I just love traveling. When I get married, I want to be with a husband who is okay with me traveling - and might travel with me. If I do end up becoming a journalist, I want to do a lot of traveling and exploring. So, I need a man who is okay with that and want to maybe explore with me. Heck, with my hectic schedule I don't even think I can manage a relationship. It was deathly during high school... and weird during college.

Speaking of college, I just found out that I didn't send all of my financial aid stuff...Ugh. I should start working on that. I hate how college is so expensive. It's a sad fact that many people will not attend college due to the price. How mind boggling is that?

On another note, I am already looking for internships in the Washington DC/New York area. I might consider somewhere in my hometown, but really? Maybe it'll be easier to obtain a job here and do an internship as well... We'll see I guess. Like wannabe employees, I am just going to apply everywhere and see what happens. I favor New York because I already have a home there with my grandparents. In Washington... I don't have a home there, but I love it a lot. Haha


OH, I still have to do the 30 day challenge. Day 3 is: Your favorite television program
Again, another one of those questions..

  • Jeopardy
  • Anderson Cooper 360
  • The Apprentice
  • Project Runway
  • 20/20
  • the Simpsons

I don't know what's in store for me this summer. I have about 19 days until I go back to college... JeeZUS! Really? That's so quick. With my summer in DC, I suppose that did take a chunk out of my well-needed summer. That's okay. Hopefully I can squeeze a driver's test in the mix and finish Eclipse.


Things I must do during the remaining days of my summer
  1. Get my license (after a year and a half having my permit...I swear, my mom doesn't want to teach me and I never had time to learn sadly. But screw it, I am going to make people teach me.)
  2. Finish Eclipse. (I hated the New Moon movie. I have never been this angry at a movie before. But whatever. I want to finish it anyways.)
  3. Laundry - well duh
  4. Finish Financial Aid forms
  5. Ride on a roller-coaster
  6. Visit my friends at their BAND CAMP
  7. Not kill myself
I think that's it. My stomach hurts. Time for food! Maybe I should make that pizza from California Pizza Kitchen.. Sounds like a plan!
