This weekend was eventful. Scott came to town and played on Main with David, Sarah, Kendra, and I. I will say, the hazy night I was searching for definitely happened. I felt so bad, and still do, about leaving my precious
roomie all alone at a bar as i "ran" home with Scott. I do this amazing thing when I'm drunk, where running/skipping is always a better way to get home. This time I chose to run. It was fun otherwise, and we had amazing french toast the next morning at
Sharkee's.
Sunday was spent enjoying the beach. That is one thing I will never get sick of. Since I was so deprived for YEARS among YEARS, all I want to do is be at the beach. Me and Christine were their for 5 hours, and I returned burnt. That is something I could live without, or possibly I will wear the proper SPF next time. Such a lazy Sunday.
Since my rental is up by the end of the week, I am in crazy mode to find a car. I test drove about 6 cars today and feel like I could have bought any of those cars. It's going to have to become more serious by tomorrow or Wednesday or I'll be walking to school every morning. Then I followed up the rest of my day with beach fun again, hoping it would respect me a bit more this time around. Met Sarah and little Hannah for
boogey boarding and lots of laying out. Also enjoyed a PB&J. After going to the gym today and hearing about how bad sodium is for a diet, that will probably be one of my last yummy lunches. RIP PB&J :(

So far my new place (and roommates) are amazing! Last night was Taco Tuesday, and I would never miss an opportunity to get cheap tacos and drinks on a school night. I am usually all about ground beef or chicken and maybe sometimes
carne asada tacos, but I introduced myself to grilled shrimp tacos and was pleasantly surprised! I will definitely be trying those out at home this weekend :)
Now that I actually have my own kitchen, I've been cooking all of my meals and putting my chef specialties up to the test. I'm really liking the Spicy Chicken with veggies that I've now had for 3 days in a row. I'm excited for Ground Turkey/Potato tacos that I will venture to try on Friday.
My roommate, Kendra, and I go to school together and we have a beach day on the 26
th to cut hair for locals and to raise money for a good cause. Since it will still be bathing suit weather (side note: I don't think it will ever NOT be bathing suit weather here by the way...) we want to make sure we are extra fit! I am not a fan of working out, and I've even started the P90X work out with my friend Sarah, but I was proud of us today. We were at the gym for 2 hours, and not just lolly-gagging around, actually working my ass off (possibly literally). Beach day here we come!
Tomorrow is the first preseason game for the NFL and after school I'm meeting Sarah at the beach for more chances to be tan, and then off to the local hangouts for the game.
SOOO excited for football to begin again. Off to shower from the gym, and take notes for our theory exam on Friday (I know, theory in
cosmetology school sounds lame, but it's actually pretty interesting).

I have officially made my mark as a So Cal girl by moving into a beach house :) My friend Kendra from school invited me to stay (for a small price) in her house with her & her two friends until I need to move. A 10 minute walk to Huntington is one of the many great perks, although I've experienced an all over body burn just from the past two days. I guess I'm not as Mexican as I claim...
I also decided since I was making less money than I was spending at my job, that I would put in my two weeks, which in return made my boss mad, so he "fired" me. Typically what I've noticed about Orange County boys/men is that they enjoy having the last laugh. Case and point, and now back to the drawing board, time to find a new job.
Anyways, My house is awesome. We have two
pit bull mixes; Ollie (9 months) and Lucy (8 months), and a cat. Not only am I known for bruising like a peach, it doesn't help that the dogs are in "we jump on anyone that's new" phase. I think people would believe I was mulled by a dog, or at least that's what someone told me at the beach yesterday. Not only is having my own/shared place bomb, I can also come and go as I please, which is different from how my grandparents place was. We had our "last supper" last night, and I could tell they were still upset that I moved. Honestly I feel so much less stressed, and I can actually use my computer because it
OFFICIALLY hooks up to the
Internet here.
THANK GOD. Now we just need to get cable and I'm all set :)
This week is the beginning of our time "on the floor" at school, which all in all means "watch out, I might screw up your hair, but you signed a release form, so not my fault". I will die the first time I have to take a client, but it will only make me better... I hope.
