I have to admit that I'm really disappointed in myself for not getting back into the blogging habit. It's not like I don't have things to write about (for I have many), it just seems that I've been spending less and less time on the computer, and when I do get the chance to hop on, I have more important things to do (as in my Grown Up Personal Advancement Project). I guess I'm mostly here to dump a bit of thought on here, and hopefully give something my 6 readers to ignore since I never update, causing my "regulars" to never visit again.
But for those of you who are still out there, why, hello there!
Before I forget, if you ever want to gain any kind of appreciation for LA (or deepen your undying love(/hate) for it, you must go to the Huntington exhibit, This Side of Paradise (if I was just a little more ambitious, I'd also provide an image, but just go - I'll go with you if you want, I'm for sure going there at least a few times before it goes next month, so you don't have an excuse!).
Being obsessive compulsive enough, August came with many hopes of a better month from the last. As we're creeping onto the 5th day, I can't say it hasn't been too bad. I am spending more time at home, which is a very bittersweet sort of deal (mostly because I actually still am living here), but it isn't bad. Thanks in part of kitties, I do feel at ease when I'm here alone at night, and I'm not as freaked out during that minute from leaving my car to my front door and into the house. Unfortunately, I'm not completely over it, as I had to refill on gasoline tonight, but was very, very apprehensive about stopping at any nearby station to fill up. Sure, those places are well-lit, but some shady people tend to hang around those areas. As fate had it, my on ramp to the freeway was closed, causing me to drive by one of the stations anyway, and I braved it and got Danny's fill of petrol. At the very least, I'm progressing with that...
Even though it's been pretty chill, August has been rather busy as well. I spent the entire weekend not at home, hanging around the San Gabriel Valley going here and there, sleeping at the parents'. Though I didn't really plan on doing it, I was fortunate once again to my mom's shopaholic tendencies and her recent purchases outfitted me for the entire time (which is good, since I was actually hanging out with people outside my family, so wearing the one outfit I had would have been not cool for my friends). If I do keep the momentum going, this will be sure to be a fun and busy (hopefully not tiring) month.
It's been rather materialistic lately, as well. Aside from the clothes from my mom, I've also got a brand new phone that's pretty fun, and now I'm in need to get myself a headset in order to not be on speakerphone all the time when driving. I bought a book that commemorates the wonderful 8 years our President has put us through, and after a whirlwind hour and a half of squatting in an American Apparel dressing room with a friend who is now happily moved back here from her two year stint in Hawaii, I managed to buy a sassy dress to wear, though it isn't the dress I originally thought of getting.
I forgot the point of this entry. I'll just post it.
Wow...I never imagined what these guys looked like, and after watching this original footage, I don't think that I'll ever hear this song the same way again. Teen Wolf was extra creepy on this one.
