me, in a nutshell.

I'm tired. I've had 2 tests in the past 2 days...both of which I didn't begin to truly study for until the night before. But, they are finished now, and aside from working on a project I am home free until I leave for LA.

Erin got me SUPER-EXCITED today about going to LA. I've been absolutely thrilled at the fact that I'm going out there to see her...but I haven't actually thought extensively about the fact that I'll be in California. I've just been excited to get to spend some time with she and Carla. Well, today she emailed me a list of options of things to do while I'm out there --- and well --- I'm pumped. Just a glimpse of the possibilities to wet your whistle (and mine again):

-wine tasting in Temecula or Santa Barbara

-Clippers game- Sunday at 12pm against Detroit or Lakers game at 6pm against another team

-Santa Barbara-kayaking, biking, shopping, wine, eating, fishing??

-Surfing or playing volleyball at my beach

-Comedy-The Laugh Factory, Jay Leno at my beach on Sunday, or The Comedy Store

-music club or concert

-Hollywood- sign, shopping and all, Chinese Theater, stars, hand prints…homeless and drug dealers…spiderman

-OC - beaches, shopping, food, and people watching

-San Diego - Coronado Island, Gas Lamp district, zoo, downtown, beach, pretty things, shopping

-Santa Monica and Venice Beach-crazies doing shows for money, shopping, Santa Monica pier (this is fun but not fantastic)

-Getty art museum-Katie, this will be a good one for you to do one day while I’m at work. It is beautifully landscaped and great place to just hang out and read and people watch…there are kids’ art classes too

-Hiking in Malibu (haven’t done this but I know there are great trails)

-Shopping in Melrose

-TV show filming of some sort (I’m sure we can find something)

-Just hanging out together and you don’t care what we do

-Game night where you all slaughter us in any game involving a brain



that's right...how AWESOME does that sound? ohhhh man, I'm excited. I'm ready for a break, that's for sure.


I got a haircut tonight.
I ate Zaxby's tonight (a brand new one that just opened) and it was SO GOOD.

Oh, a funny story: Rachel and I went to study on Sunday night...and we were like "let's go to the C of C library, that'd be a good place" -- so we meet, walk across the street and try to open the doors...and they're definitely locked. So we go to the revolving door and push, and it's definitely locked, so we're peering in the windows trying to figure it out, then we realize that they are on spring break. so, here we are, 2 girls with our backpacks on looking like we're trying to get into the library, at the intersection of a busy street downtown - where there are people probably thinking we are the biggest nerds in the whole world for wanting to go to the library on the 1st sunday of spring break. We got a good kick out of it. We end up going to our library, and it also posed some funny things. For instance: it is silent up there on the 4th floor and there are only like 4 of us up there...and some dude keeps burping out loud. kinda gross...but hillarious...because we have no idea if he realized he was even doing it or not. we were like, "seriously...is this happening?!?"

ok, I think that's all the updates for now....I'm really really tired. More to come later. Goodnight.

i'm totally excited that you get to go to california!!!

we all know that you ARE a nerd so going to the library on spring break wouldn't necessarily surprise us. plus, the more studying...the more money we'll win on family feud one day!
