In exactly one week from today I will be free from the bondage of school, for a month and a half!
Summer school officially ends next Wednesday and I’m uber excited to feel what summer is like, heh. I know that many people give me the whole “you had a strike” speech but really which would you rather have a strike or a normal summer? Anyways I can finally get serious with my commitments (i.e. Softball, labs, and applying for jobs) and catch up on my rest (i.e. to heal the nasty wound on my knee).
I need accountability. I just recently picked up two books, Time Travellers Wife and My Sister’s Keeper, and I want to read them both before I watch the movie. Once I’m done reading and watched the movie I’ll book/movie review here so you know that I’ve done it. If I don’t get at least one of the books done by the end of the month, I’ll give you $5 for remember that I was suppose to finish one book.
That’s it for now. Enjoy your summer, go out and have fun in the sun!
Thanks for reading

1 Comments Links to this postThere are two things on the top of my mind at the moment. I will try my best at these wee hours of the morning to express as much as I could, cause we all know if I wait ‘til the next day this post will most probably not happen.
I was thinking for a couple days now – what ever happened to puppy love? You know, the first crushes of our lives. The childhood sweethearts that just never seem to leave our hearts just because they were the first ones we ever caught our eyes on. Do you remember that feeling? The butterflies in your stomach every time you think about him/her, the cold sweats when they come closer, and the random things we do when they talk to us (it varies between people). And do you remember how “in love” you were, or at least thought you were? I think at some point of our puppy love stage we all thought that person we were dating was the one. But were we ever wrong. My point here is not to be pessimistic, however. My main point is actually a question to everyone: how come puppy love never lasts? It seems that we all love to imagine that we live in a world of fairytales and happy endings that we forget where our love originated from. From whom and from where we learned to care and “love” someone. It boggles me to think that the older we get, the more distracted we are from the central core of love. We occupy ourselves of worries about the other person and for some reason made ourselves believe that love should have responsibilities, as we got older. And because we get older we start to see the flaw in each person and thus begin to lose interest because they don’t fit in our “grand scheme of things”. I would like to return to that pure love one day. The kind of love that is uncomplicated and unobstructed by all these things the media puts in our head to worry about. Let love be love, and let responsibilities be responsibilities. Do not use love as an excuse to push responsibilities onto another person, you are responsible for yourself – just love.
Anyways, that’s that.
Today I finally got to watch the movie UP and I must say, it was stupendously amazing. It was one of the first films to break out the 3D in theatres and I can say with two thumbs up that it’s a MUST-SEE in theatres. It was a great mix of emotion, humour, and inspiration. Like people say that the ingredients of salt, sugar, and oil make some of the tastiest foods we know (i.e. McDonald’s Fries), emotion, humour and inspiration are the ingredients to some of the best movie’s we watch. If you haven’t seen it yet, GO WATCH IT NOW before it’s too late.
Busy week, but productive. Hope everyone’s doing well under the gloomy rainclouds. Until next time.
Thanks for reading!
and for some comic relief:
