I am excited to see them and talk to them and hear their stories more tomorrow, yeah yeah yeahhhh!!! :) Ok really have to go to bed though, gotta wake up and do the running thing-- pray for cool weather haha (yeah right!)
The Countdown
Jenni and Robin get on a flight to come back to LA in 30 minutes... and in 5 hours they actually land... and in 7 hours I will see Robin on her front lawn where I will be sitting waiting for her... and in 24 dang long hours, I will be on my way to see Jenni... and in 25 dang long hours, I will be hugging Jenni not letting her go :)

2-1 in S-D
Well this was a great weekend... it was my birthday weekend actually. On Saturday the 24th I turned 21 years old... yep, the big 2-1. So to celebrate this occasion, myself and 6 of my friends drove down to San Diego to hang out there for the night and the next day. We went down on Friday and checked into the Mission Valley Resort. It was an okay place, and it fit all 6 of us (not to their knowledge), so that was a good thing. So Ash, Sarah, and I drove down and got checked in. Kim, Sarai, and Alana drove down about 2 hours later than us. However, we hit some traffic, stopped to get food, and then got lost trying to find a grocery store in San Diego, so we ended up at the hotel around the same time, about 1030pm. So we just hung out until midnight. Then at midnight they all aimed those 4th of July confetti popper things at me.
The next morning we woke up early. It's weird because it was still my birthday, but it felt like it was over since I celebrated and then slept, ya know? Anyways... so Sarah and I woke up early to Hooch callin' us for directions (she met us down there). So then Ash woke up. Then Sarah and I spent the next hour trying to get Kim, Sarai, and Alana to wake up. Weird things had to happen for this to be accomplished, and I'm not going to write any of it down haha. So Hooch gets there and we check-out of the hotel, pack a picnic lunch, and head to the beach. Oh wait, actually we went to a 2-story target first, because that's just freakin awesome. Then we went to the beach.
Actually--hold that thought. So on the way to the beach, I recieved the BEST birthday gift EVER!! No really-- my two friends, Jenni and Robin, called me from Turkey. They called me from a freakin foreign country on my birthday! That is blog-worthy. That made my day, my week, and my freakin' life! To hear their voices was amazing! I didn't want to stop talking to them!! But it has to be a short conversation of course, but it was still ahhhhhmazing! I'm glad they get home in 3 days, because I wouldn't have been able to talk to them and then not see them for another few weeks. Man, I miss those fools!! So thanks to you both--- you are the best friends EVER!!! :)
...So we did the beach thing and then once we got a little bored and a little cold--since it was overcast--we drove around and looked and nice houses and asked them if we could shower in their guest homes..... no really, we did. Actually, only one of us asked-- and I'm sure you can figure out who. Then we got ready at Ashley's cousin's house, and went downtown. We got a late start on dinner, but luckily we didn't have to wait at all, we were seated right away. We ate at the Hardrock Cafe. The waitress wanted me to get drunk because it was my 21st birthday lol-- don't worry, I didn't! I had this drink though-- a wabooso or wabasi, i dunno, started with a "w". I thought it was going to be blue, but it wasn't. And it didn't taste very good either. Should have just gotten a strawberry daquiri lol. Oh well. So we ate dinner, walked around for a little, and then drove back home. It was fun.
My friends all pitched in and got me a pass to disneyland. So if you have a pass, let me know.... but mine's blocked out till mid-August lol, so not for a while. So I got home around 1230am and then was exausted and crashed.
Sunday I went to Newport and celebrated the birthday with my parents, my sister and her boyfriend, Ashley and her parents, and Chel! It was good times as well. Ashley even cancelled plans to make it, so that made me happy, what a pal huh? I sure think so!
Well I guess that's it.... I don't really feel like blogging much today, so I'm going to go run some errands now and just stop talking. Buuuuuuut, be excited, because Jenni and Robin get back on Thursday-- that's right: 3 days!!! Yeah yeeah yeeeah yeeeah yeeeeeeeeah!!! Can you tell I'm excited? Cuz I freakin am! lol

Syllable-countin', feet smellin', cheese lovin', music singin' freak
So I saw Julie's blog and she was playing some "game" where she was tagged so now she had to list 4 random facts about herself... well I'm bored @ work so I'm tagging myself and here I go...
1. I count syllables. I count 4 on each side of my head in a 2 syllable rotating pattern. I start on the left side and then continue on to the right after the left side has been maxed out-- and I continue rotating between the 2 sides until the syllables land exactly on the right side on a completed 4-streak pattern. I can't stop until it ends in this exact matter. Odd syllables are almost always bad--unless they complete another odd syllable pattern from a previous sentance, resulting in an even 2 syllable-string combination. I will repeat sentances, thoughts, murmurs, and other various noises until the right sided 4-streak pattern is complete. Then my mind can rest. :)
2. I don't like feet. I'm trying not to use the word "hate" because it is such a strong word--but yeah, I hate feet. I hate that they smell. I hate the way they look. I hate the way they feel on you. They're dirty and gross, and they belong on the ground and out of the way. Men's feet has an added hate for the hair, the nasty yellow jagged toenails, and the roughness. Keep your dang feet away from me.
3. I really like cheese. Not all kinds of it though-- swiss cheese is nasty. But I love some good mozzarella, chedder, munster, or provolone. And if I'm lucky, it's colby jack cheese, mmmm. Cheese can be eaten a variety of ways: wrapped up and melted on a tortilla, cut up into squares and placed on ritz crackers, or simply find that cheese slicer and cut yourself some little cheese rectangles to be eaten plain. It really doesn't get much better than that. Cheese does make you thirsty however--for which i strongly reccomend some diet dr. pepper. You would think milk would go good with cheese, but come on, don't overdose on dairy- stick to pop or water.
4. I love to listen to music and sing along when I'm in the car by myself. I love it. I have the greatest car ride just being by myself. I don't always sing along, sometimes I just listen. But I do always crank the volume up to almost as high as it can go, which if you've ever been in my car, you know I have a system and it can get pretty dang loud. I know right now that you are probably finding this pretty humorous, since I don't do anything like this, and you would all love to witness this phenomenon.... well sorry friends and foes, but I only do it riding solo, this is something that you will never see. I'll just have to leave it up to your imagination :)
Well that's that.... four random fun Christie facts. Not much perspective, just straight up fact. Maybe I'll write something tomorrow with a little perspective. Give you something to look forward to. You can anxiously check my website hourly, waiting on the edge of your seat, dying for some christie perspective, wishing I would already post my thoughts and prevent the agony and the hopelessness that comes with sitting, wishing, and waiting by the computer. Well no can do, you're just gunna' have to wait...

Steppin' Out
Today was a good day. I don't really know why, but it was just a good day. Woke up early and got ready. Then Ash came back to school so I went over to her apartment and hung out and Sarai came over too after practice to visit, that was cool. Then it came time for lunch and work, which wasn't too bad--just a little boring haha. So then after work I came back to the apartment and got some things done that I needed to, then went over to Ashley's again and we went to 7-11, cuz I was totally craving a slurpee. Came back to my apartment and relaxed for a little. Then Kinsley called me and told me everyone was goin' out to dinner, so I said sure. Went out to Riverside Plaza for dinner with Ashley, Carrie, Kinsely, Brandon, and AJ. That was fun; we all kind of shared about our ISP trips. Then we came back to school to sit around and hang out, but we ended up hanging out in the parking lot for almost 2 hours, but it didn't seem that long at all. A lot of people that live on campus were just hanging out and talking, I met some new people lol. Then some of us went back to apartment 219 (Carrie and Kinsley's) and sang some worship music and talked more about our trips. So I don't know what was really special about the night; I think I just enjoyed the fact that I hung out with some people that I don't usually hang out with. I didn't let myself convince me that it was a bad idea, and I just let myself have fun. It felt good. I think there will be a lot of that this summer, and I think that is a good thing too. But I did leave early to come back and get to bed early-- so that's what I'm going to do now after I wash my face and brush my teeth. I hate doin' that stuff but I love the way it feels :) Sooooooo until next time...
