I haven’t posted in a while cuz I was hoping to have a new layout up before I do. But… as you can see, there is no new layout.
I really have no idea what to do. I’ll just wait till inspiration hits me… which hasn’t happened in a loooong time. I feel like this layout was sort of thrown together. Maybe when I go to Europe next month, I’ll be inspired! Speaking of Europe, Spain won the Euro cup!!! What a victory! I wanted to see Turkey in the finals. That would have been an incredible match! Can’t wait till World Cup 2010!
I’m back at home now. I came back about three weeks ago. I decided not to take the LSAT till October. I’m trying to study more during the summer and hopefully I’ll get a good score when I do take it. I Haven’t been doing much else here except watching movies. WALL-E was pretty cute. A somewhat horrifying view of what the future could be like, but the little robot is too adorable. I rented Paris, je t’aime yesterday. There were some cute segments (the Gurinder Chadha one), some touching ones (the Nigerian man part), and some just… truly bizarre (the hairdresser one). Overall I liked it and I really can’t wait to see Paris again for myself!

I’m in Boston. My sorority installs party was tonight. It was ok. I got a bunch of gifts. I’m officially a sister now… yay. I skipped the after-party. It would not be good if I stumbled back into my aunt’s house drunk.
This whole week was messed up. I had no place to stay for the weekend. That was mostly my fault though. I thought I had a place but I shouldn’t have waited till the last minute to make sure. That’s something I need to work on this year. So I initially changed my flight to next weekend till I could move in to my dorm. But that idea pissed a bunch of people off so I changed the flight back to the original day. My aunt finally agreed to put me up for the weekend. Then I’m staying with one of the sisters till I can move in to my dorm on Wednesday. I hate not having my own place or a car here. I’m so helpless without a car! I have a roommate this year. This is gonna be the first time I have a real roommate. Hope she’ll be cool.
The weather back home was so messed up this week. There was a tornado in my area on Thursday. I just came out of the shower and the sky was all black! I thought all my windows were gonna break. I heard the tornado siren and ran downstairs to the basement. Nothing bad happened. My basement flooded. A bunch of flights in Chicago got delayed. I was stuck in a plane for two hours before we took off. It finally landed in Boston at 11:30 pm. That wasn’t so bad. Another sister got stuck in Chicago for two days because of delayed flights!
I wouldn’t mind spending another week at home. I really don’t feel like doing anything besides watching NewS. Damn J-Pop! It’s so addictive. I’ve turned into a stupid little fangirl. I thought that phase of my life ended with the Backstreet Boys in 6th grade, lol. I always get so sad when I leave home. It’s my comfort zone. I like doing new things but I always like going back to something comfortable. Classes start next week. Can’t wait…

I’ve been neglecting this site for well, years now. I continue to pay yearly and monthly for this domain but I’m not sure if it’s worth it anymore. I’ve grown up so much this past year at college. I admit it’s got something to do with joining a sorority. I spent my early teenage years absorbed in the internet and webdesign. I’ve gotten more connected to the “real world” since then. The internet’s still fun. I facebook about twelve thousand times a day. But I don’t feel the need to seek validation through blogs and whatnot anymore. I still love photoshopping and sharing my artwork with others. Maybe I just need to revamp this site. Turn it into a portolio. Maybe I’ll buy a new domain. We’ll see when it’s time to renew ms.com.
In other news, this summer is going swimmingly. I went to Boston for about a week for my sorority’s national assembly, which was held in NYC. I stayed with my big sis for a weekend then at my pledge sis’ apartment. Most of the time I drank, and slept, partied, and slept. We went to gay night at a club with a straight frat guy. Hilarious! The assembly itself was boring. There was also some drama involving a 21+ club. Some of us are not yet 21, ahem, me. But whenever you get a big group of girls together, there’s bound to be drama. I’m glad everything was sorted out. There was screaming, tears, apologies, more apologies. Like one of my sisters said, sisterhood is so much more than a simple friendship. Despite everything that happens, at the end of the day, we’re still sisters. I’m still fairly new to greek life, but from what I’ve experienced so far, it’s true.
Coming home from college was a bit of a rough transition. No more drinking. No partying every weekend. My parents would kill me if they ever found out I drink! My friends at home don’t drink either. It seems like our lives are all so different now. During high school we all took the same classes, our common goal was to go to college. Now we’re in college, we’re all going in different directions. I’m not even sure which city I’ll end up in. I still have some fun in my old hometown. I saw the fireworks with my friends on July 4th. I went to the Harry Potter midnight show the other night. My sister dressed up as Cho Chang, haha. And I’m going to the zoo this weekend. If only there was a way to combine my life here and my life in Boston!
