laurelin_kit | Gah! Long overdue update. (Reply)

This is ridiculous! Perfect weather all morning and then when I have to go to my statistics class, it starts pouring at like a forty-five degree angle. I got halfway down the Towers walk before my umbrella nearly blew out and I realized I wouldn't make it. Sooooo frustrating. I have my notes printed out and everything. I don't wanna not go today.

Anyway, I'm alive, lol. I realize it's been since...May...that I've updated. Once you get into not updating it snowballs, I guess. Biggest news: I got a new car!

It's a Turbo! That means it's extra awesome.

I've been looking for cars to replace the truck from hell, and I test drove this one just for fun. We went on to the Honda place afterwards and got our hearts broken over a 2006 blue Civic (Mom wanted that and I'd get the Vibe) when it was about four thousand more than expected. So we went home, dejected, and I came back the next weekend to continue car shopping and THE BUG WAS TOTALLY IN THE GARAGE WHEEEE! And my parents said all these wonderful things about how I'm a great kid and I deserve an awesome car since my grades are good and I've driven the truck for over two years now and was so compliant about getting the Vibe and I haven't been arrested or anything. Thus, I get a car! I plan to put black pinstripes on the side and call it the Lil Pussy Wagon.

Real-time LJ update! It is now four! I did go to class! The shuttle came by and I ran out the door mid-LJing and caught it. So I just spent two hours in statistical hell.

Continuation: I went camping this weekend at Wekiwa Springs with Ethan, Richard, Grant, Rebecca, Stephen, Steven, Aaron, Catie, Jeremy, Nick and Bryan. It was awesome, although sleeping on the ground was not awesome, and neither was getting about fifty bug bites. But it was all worth it for the canoeing and the freeeezing springs. And the bears! Did I mention the bears? Because there were bears. They walked through our campsite while Rebecca and I were asleep. Bears! They were also wandering around while we were awake, but I never saw them. Everyone would go "Look! Bears!" and I'd look and they would have moved already. Furry bastards.

So that's my life since May. Now I'm going to go shower and clean my room.
