I can't wait for two days. TWO DAYS! I've been cleaning my room and doing my laundry and getting things planned. Although I am working, I will make this trip worth it. I have two more days of school and he's here.

Tonight, Kendra, Christine & I went to In-&-Out for our roomie dinner. It's really nice to get along with them so well and I just always get lucky with roommates. My first roommate at Iowa, Jessica, was the first time I had a random one. She was amazing and we got along so well regardless of the fact we came from entirely different backgrounds and areas. Even when I lived in a house full of girls (sorority) I still enjoyed my roommate, Cindy, and always had a great time with her. Once I dropped out of the sorority, I moved in quickly with 3 girls I had never met. They were also the most amazing girls I'd ever met, and even helped throw me a party when I turned 20. I think I'm just lucky, because I'm positive I haven't had a bad roommate left.

Also, I've found I have an extremely dangerous amount of love for the show "Glee". I find myself singing along with their stupid but awesome renditions of popular songs. Maybe because I secretly wished my school had a group like that... I would have definitely been the loser girl with the killer voice.. haha.

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 26th 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).
