I need

-to learn how to drive.
-some serious cash.
-to occupy myself.
-to hang out with my friends more.
-to save up my money.
-to rekindle my songwriting abilities.
-to start on my summer homework.
-to cough at this very moment.
-A LIFE.

Last summer was a bit fun for me. I did a little scientific experiment, where I watch movies containing British accents, NON-STOP, and soon, I developed a slight one. It wore away quickly, however. Not only did the movies help, but I had to read some Jane Austen books, and one of my all time favorite books, The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger, in a false British accent. When I did that, sooner or later, my accent started to stick, and so my I had a slight accent over the summer in 2008. I wish I could do it again.

Things are a tad more exciting than last year because I have things to look forward to. First of all, Jolleen is planning a CGA day with Mabuhay. I'm really excited for that, but hopefully, my parents would let me go because they see that I DON'T have summer school and they see that I sulk around in the house all day, anyway. Then, in late July, I might be going to San Diego, just for the hell of it. I'm totally up for it. Why? Because I need some excitement. If I knew how to drive, I wouldn't be in this pickle. (Short story: At the birthday party on Saturday, my mom gave me the keys to the car because she knew she would be catching up with family for quite a while, so she expected me to be bored and thought that waiting in the car would help me with cease with the boredom. I sat in the driver's seat, and I touched the wheel, and I started the car. Boy, it felt AMAZING.) Finally, in August, I'm going to my older sister, Michelle's, wedding. I'm going to be a bridesmaid; black dress with a teal sash. The wedding's going to be in Washington and Seattle will be the first place my feet touch, where it's NOT California. Yes, I've never been out of California, and yes, Seattle will be my first. Congrats, Washington.

I hope my mom will let me learn to drive soon.
Because I want to learn. And go Fast & Furious.
Just kidding.

By the way, I coughed. It felt good.

Have a lovely morning.
Cheers xoxo.
