This past week was so crazy busy. The fashion show came and went fast, but it was absolutely amazing. We had almost like a porcelain goth look and I think I was the only model that had all of my clothes on. Me and a few of the girls from my school who were also in the show, stayed after and had a blast! I think it was a pretty successful night minus the fact that I lost a pair of my favorite ballet flats :(

I went to visit Kayla again and I will say nothing more of how we aren't "bad influences" on each other. We're so lucky Todd came and picked us up, because I vaguely remember starting a tab because the bartender looked like Justin Timberlake. Who wouldn't in their right mind spend tons of money to bring "Sexy Back"? And when beer pong changes to vodka pong at 4am, I can only imagine why we woke up and reeked of a hangover. Sunday we went night swimming after another regular visit to a Mexican Restaurant. I rarely go to eat anywhere other than Mexican Restaurants, regardless if the best Mexican food can be found at my humble abode. Nathan and I purposely try to go to every place we can find, I'll bring updates on the best places in central California.

Monday should have been a day of rest or possibly to look for another job, but it was spent right by the beach in Carlsbad to visit my other grandparents on their timeshare. I can never pass up an opportunity at the beach, plus I went sailing for the first time and actually got to "drive" the boat. I'm no expert but I could wear polo's and nautical stripes if I wanted.

I also got to be styled and on TV for BeautyTV by Ryan Secrest stylist in LA Wednesday. I feel like how the hell am I getting modelling opportunities while I'm in beauty school trying to be a stylist? But the perks are awesome, including being on TV. I'm sure many more opportunities will be coming my way just over the next year, i cant even imagine!

Off to school and then to watch the US Open for the first time :) I'm not necessarily a surfer girl, but I'll watch hot surfers do their thing any day of the week!

I have found out how bad my sense of direction really is. It has made a normal 1 hour trip to San Bernardino into between 1 1/2 to 2 hours, possibly more. Especially on my way home this morning... I ended up on a dirt road in a small town going towards San Diego (don't ask me how). Luckily my new phone has Google Maps on it, so it somehow brought be back to the OC.

This weekend I went and visited my friend Nathan, which was totally bomb. We went to one of his friends, I met in Vegas, house for a BBQ and to watch UFC. Now I am not a fan of UFC, not really even a little, but I do know that I can deal with it in order to hang with the guys. It was actually cool because we were betting on matches, and I happen to be quite lucky when it comes to gambling, so all of my guys won :) I gave myself a whole new cool level to the guys (2 points for me!) After we just crashed at his house because being completely drunk for 2 hours and then sobering up for 4 really takes a lot out of you.

We went off roading in the Jeep Sunday afternoon in hopes to go shoot my first real hand gun, but no firearms during fire season :( I don't know if I can handle all of that power of having a gun, but I'm definitely considering it when I move into my own place. Next time I'm there, we'll find a way around "fire season" or just go to an indoor shooting range. But it was awesome just being outside and holding on for dear life around the sharp corners over the cliffs, plus we found an awesome place to camp for one of the next times I'm around there.

This week I'm getting ready for the hair show, we did the run through and fitting today. My dress is pretty cool, its white strapless dress made of sparkly tool fabric. Kind of like a princess dress but hits like right above my calves (can't wait to get pictures after the show). Anyways it's totally cool and I've never been a model in a show before. I get my hair colored tomorrow and then the shows on Thursday. Since I wont be wearing heels (Thank God!) I wont have any problem with falling, wish me luck otherwise though!

School is going so quickly, we're only 3 full weeks away from being "on the floor". Without knowing what that means; its just starting to cut/color/style REAL peoples hair. No more mannequin heads for me!

I went to All-You-Can-Eat Sushi tonight.... AGAIN. Is it possible to love something so much that it is actually worth the AYCE price? Me and my friend Sarah always go, and make poor decisions by eating and drinking our socks off. It was great though, definitely time to catch up (which is ALWAYS necessary) and just have fun. I barely work either, so it's semi lame when I have to pay the bill! I think when I asked for 3-4 shifts per week, they thought I meant 1 REAL shift, 1 on call shift, and 2 imaginary shifts. Which would be cool if I actually didn't need a job...

I think I'll be looking for jobs at the start of next week!

Monday is the dress rehearsal of the Hair Show I'm walking in, which I'm too excited for. I really hope I get to keep the vintage black & white dress to add to the collection of dresses I wish I owned. I just hope I don't trip and fall, and I really didn't start any sort of work out for this kind of thing. NO BUENO.

Also, on a side note, I was always wondering when the day would come. I suppose today, July 10th 2009, was the day. My ex "un-friended" me on Facebook. I guess that means we are now not friends anymore, because of course Facebook rules the world. I'm sure I will never understand Facebook's importance... ever.

I am such a procrastinator, I keep telling myself to update my life on my blog. I never get around to getting on the computer because I am honestly having the best time of my life! No time for any computers! I even update my facebook on my Palm before I go to bed.. or any other time I have.

Ok so can't remember the last time I wrote on here, but what I do remember (vaguely) is the absurd amount of things I did over the past 2 weeks. I snuck to Vegas a few weekends ago, which doesn't sound ridiculous other than the fact that I played hookie from school and work (whoops, cat's out of the bag). Thank God I went though, because I had the time of my life! I got invited the day before by one of the people I met at my cousin's wedding, so I had to jump on the opportunity to let loose, especially in Vegas! Thank goodness that my cuz Kayla was there because I soon came to find out what a "Lame" (because I can't publish worse words) this person was. All I have to say is what happens there was definitely suppose to stay there, but it followed me home like a lost dog, and I didn't mind it. (if I could be less vague I would be, all of these metaphors for what I really happened are too funny to stop)

Anyways, I've gone out on a couple dates just to not be self depriving, and the first guy was a "trekie" which would be cool if I was into that (by the way, I'M NOT) so luckily I've had better luck the second time around. I think it's so awkward the first time you go on a date in forever, because I honestly don't remember what dating is suppose to be like because I'm always in relationships. But it's fun and I'm learning just to not take it so seriously.

The fourth of July was less memorable only for the small reason that I was overly drunk. What I do remember is: a Luau at Seau's Restaurant in SD, Drunk McDonald's and In-&-Out runs, Staying in a hotel I didn't pay for, BBQ at THE Junior Seau's beach house, Playing football with the SD Chargers and dislocating my finger in the process, Jumping in the ocean on numerous occasions, Kayla getting a black eye... somehow, Cases of Patron & Belvedere, Pacific Beach with my friend Scott, Hawkeye bar in PB, Fireworks & Fire Throwing circus freaks, Dodgers vs Padres game, $1000 tab after the game (thank you Uncle Sal!), beach day to get back to reality! I honestly can't believe that all of this occurred during one weekend and that we actually have pictures to document it.

Anyways, School is so bomb and everything is just falling into place. The dream board I made is actually on the way to coming true from what I can see. I can't wait for the weekend to go visit Kayla & Nathan to just relax all over again :)
