I've been a member for almost 5 years. Pretty crazy. Since I really haven't done much with this, but alas, I still love this place. Even if I only check it every 3 months.

It is summer. And actually for me it's only summer for another...10 days. Then I'm headed to Pittsburgh for college. Last choice school, last choice city :] but at least I can afford it. But if orientation represented the best my class has to offer, I may suck up the loans and transfer to Drexel. So far (via messages) my roommate seems quite nice though, so I'm excited about that. And I'm finished bitching about college, chances are if you're reading this you've heard me give a longer version of this speech every time you've seen me since May.

Speaking of summer, mine's been crazy busy. Summary/list version: I went to Paris, da Bahamas, Otakon, and Pittsburgh for orientation. I finally stopped working at Pizza Hut at the end of July. I got my nose pierced! I went to a Gogol Bordello concert by myself and had an awesome time. I saw Incubus with my mom and her fiance last week. I've seen lots of movies, or maybe just a couple movies lots of times, ie The Hangover, 500 Days of Summer. I've been to Hershey Park and Kings Dominion and a midnight showing of Repo! The Genetic Opera. I have not seen my family or been to the beach. I have not gone to the 9:30 Club or any part of Washington DC. I climbed up a real ladder for the first time to clean my house. I've made a mess of my room. I miss sketchbook assignments from Art 3, or maybe just making art. I've been really bitchy, but less bitchy than during the school year. I bought a Nintendo DSi. I've actually had a bunch of lazy days. I went to the aquarium and saw the jellies. I've sneezed over 1000 times in 2009.
So that's most of it, and there's definitely more left to squeeze out of summer in the next few days.

Also, in spite of all my bitching, most of me is really excited about college. From [god-damnable] College Board AP tests I actually got 18 credits already :] pretty sweet. Including a 3 on AP art! Not really something to brag about...but I was expecting a 2 so I was really happy about that! And the roommate thing is good. And there are parts of Pittsburgh that seem like they're going to be wicked fun, like the Altar bar, which is a church, turned into a bar. And of course there's more, but now I'm getting lazy

Wearing my retainers for the first time in months, waking up early, hormones, anxiousness/excitement, and life at this moment have put me in a strange mood.
