"Confusion is a word we have invented for an order which is not understood." - Henry Miller Hellooooo. I FINALLY got back from Colorado today! The trip actually turned out to be really fun even thought it was like 3 consecutive fam reunions… I’d never been one of the “older” cousins until this trip, so for the first time, I hung out with people more my age. SOO much more fun than bbsitting kids all day long. Basically, we are all such fucking old geezers! I can’t wrap my mind around the fact that we’re seniors in high school! Seriously! Everytime that some aunt or uncle asked me what grade I’m going into, I cringed. Time has FLOWN by like crazy. The weirdest thing for me is that I remember the 1st day of middle school! It’s been like 5 years since that day… and in 5 more years, we’ll be finishing college and we’ll be ADULTS! How is that even possible? aka, speaking of college, somebody needs to tell me where I’m going bc I can’t deal with all this crazy decision makin’!
It’s pretty much majorly unfortunate, but I only now realize that I have been SOO limited in terms of experiencing my own freaking country!! I’ve just traveled the east coast and the midwest, so it was really toight slash different to see Colorado. Everything is so gorgeous there! It sounds crazy, but I never knew that the sky was so BIG! I must’ve taken a billion pics of clouds and mountains bc things are just so open and stunning.I know that I’ve been privileged to travel outside of the US but I really want to go for a roadtrip or something here! There are so many different cultures here but I’ve only seen a couple… like in Colorado, people were just very chill and relaxed. It’s not like people were lazy, it’s just that people took the time to appreciate things and not be psycho robots and race through life… The point is, I’m not doing v-ball this year. I know I either won’t make the team period or I won’t get playing time ever so I guess I’ll try out for field hockey. I’ll miss v-ball though. It was always fun/a good team sport but this year’s varsity team will be full of crazy bitches aka people that are sooo intense about winning and all that jazz. I’m not even making sense at all. I don’t know what I’ve written! It’s 2 AM but only midnight on my boday so I’m not tired. Summer is over though… I want to try and start college apps/just get junk out of the way, but I know I’ll spend hours telling myself to do stuff and in the end, not accomplish shit!. I haven’t even opened Tess yet! All you bitches and hos are like “how far are you? I’ve only done 399 pages!!! What am I gonna doooo!?” sike.. but for real, I haven’t started. Gah! Does anyone know when schedules come out? In conclusion to this excellently structured entry, I would like to leave you with a cool celeb sighting! Ahaha, aka it was Anna Sophia Robb! The girl in Bridge to Terabithia (fav childhood book, beeteedub!) and Willy Wonka. Pete and I saw her after in Dulles after we got off our Denver flight. I didn’t know her name at the time, (I had to imdb it when I got home) but I recognized her massive eyes and super-light hair! Nobody else seemed to know who she was but Pete and I creeped for like 5 minutes trying to find her again… it was an unsuccessful mission but whatevs. It was still cool to see her even though I hadn’t known that she existed until I watched Willy Wonka on my cousin’s portable DVD player in CO. Rediculous. GOODNIGHT TERDS!! I am crazy delirious/not tired but actually exhausted.

okayyyyyy. it's 2:05 i finished up my homework at 11:00 and then found dead hammy :[ i saw him drinking around 9ish so he must've been okay earlier, i think he's just old. i'm not surprised bc i've been saying he was gonna die for like 6 months now. he was just curled up in his hut and i had a weird feeling so i tapped on the cage and he didn't move... his eyes are open and he looks so peaceful but it's still horrible. he smelled and was a bitch most of the time and i had to wear gloves when i picked him up but i still lovedddd him. i'm glad he made it to 2007... kinda bizarre i guess.
i got in bed like 4 hours ago but i've just been tossing and turning and i feel so hot/shiverery and i keep spitting up bile. i don't think i'm sick though... i'm just so exhausted. i probably get like 5 or 6 hours of sleep a night and i guess it's taking its toll on my boday. i need to stop procrastinating buttt, i'm not gonna lie, i'm kinda proud of myself for finishing everything tonight aka my timeline, annotations, and even some of my oral presentation.
i reallyyyy want this to be a good year and i wanna try and "document" it more so i'll update later w/ resolutions and stuff.
R.I.P. hammy moran III -- august 14, 2004-january 1, 2007

MERRYYYYYYY XMAS EVERYONE! today turned out to be a lotttt better than i expected bc i didn't tell anyone what i wanted bc i didn't really want anything in particular this year!
it was a smaller xmas than usual bc of tom at college and loki's chemo but it was still cute and cozy. as usual, i got about 5 little dollar store type diaries from various aunts that think i'm still 8 years old.
other than those, i got the new josh groban CD, seal's greatest hits (loveee him), the "thank you for smoking" dvd, a tiffany's necklace, 50 dollah, A MASSAGE AT SOME SPA! (woah budday, totally pschyed for that), a suduko electronic game that i played for like 2 hours today, 30 dollah giftcard for the movies, ugly earrings that i'm returning, a dog calender, new blowdrier, a black turtleneck from gap that is kinda fug and cost like 75 dollah, so i'm returning and getting some storeeee credit, 50 dollah for best buy, some clinique skin care stuff, makeup bag, cosmo magazine subscription (ahhah! FROM MY GRANDMA! sexxxx), 2 scarves, an inspirational quote book, anddd some stuff that i can't remember.
every year my dad's fam does this "grab bag gift exchange" bc there are like 50 ppl aka wayyyy too many for us to get gifts for for everyone so ppl end up getting like 5 per person. but it's still a lot of gifts. and usually i get crappy stuff like stupid books or wallets but this year i got stuff that i like/needed!
rock it! i hope everyone else is having a greatttttttt xmas!
peace son! and loveeeee to all

"A ruffled mind makes a restless pillow." Charlotte Brontë
oh lyfe. the quote is appropriate yet again! i haven't been able to sleep well for the past week. i'm really stressed about school this year. i didn't care at all last year, but i now i'm always freakin'. i sleep forever in latin today and it was really restful. and then i had an amazing epiphany in math w/ lauren and everything now makes sense about sin/cos/tan inverse! i'm honestly excited bout it.
i know i always say that hammy is going to die, but this time i think it's really fo' sho. i found vomit in his cage, unless it's diarrhea, but i really doubt that he would poop on his food ledge. one of our hermit crabs died a few weeks ago. he was all shriveled up. he didn't even have a name, so it's like he never existed (sike, i'm just thinking bout the handmaid's tale).
and my dad just left for a week in iraq.. wtf? yeah, i didn't even hear about it until like sunday. it's so random. but he used to travel alllllll the time and this is his first trip in like 6 months, so that's good i guess. he wanted something to read so i gave him "a million little peices" but now i wish i hadn't. ahah, it's so graphic. whatevssss.
this is rando but i've been listening nonstop to regina spektor and ray lamontagne for the past 3 days. i'm obsessed with both of them... a lot!
now i'm off to ledo's. it'll be my first time working a weekday during the school year.
peace

"Life isn't fair. It's just fairer than death, that's all." William Goldman, THE PRINCESS BRIDE
why are these quotes always so appropriate!?
FUCKKKKKKKK LEDO'S! i fucking hate rob. fuckity, fuck, fuck, fuck! i just got a call saying i was supposed to be there at 5. first of all, why would they wait an hour to call me and second of all I WAS NEVER TOLD THE SCHEDULE WAS CHANGED! omg. i didn't work sunday because i was sick and i'm STILL coughing all the time (that would be disgusting if i was like coughing on ppl's food and stuff!). but fucking rob was like "julia, this is not okay with me. recently you've been slipping on your obligations) aka the only time would be sunday but i canceled saturday morning so even though it's short notice it IS NOTICE! and then today doesn't fucking count. i've told him NUMEROUS times that i can't work weekdays but he still schedules me? and then gets mad when i don't know! i swear.. he need to send out a fucking weekly schedule or something.
basically i'm just mad that he said that to me.
i don't know why i'm updating with this... i'll prob end up reading it later and think "i'm a terd". cool fucking beans.

i just found this supah cute pic of mark moses (aka the desperate housewives) and my dear dad. it's so cool! and old. i love their hair and the vintage-ness of it. it's mark on the left and my fasha on the riz-ight. 
this is a pitiful excuse for an update, but whateverrrrrr. in other news: i'm driving to school tomorrow, it's really easy to get off campus for lunch, i can't find my phone OR my camera, i have a disgusting cold, i think my hammy is gonna die really soon, and the quarter is already over.
peace and lurvvvvvv

"Faith is, at one and the same time, absolutely necessary and altogether impossible." Stanislaw Lem
summer, my dear, where did you go?!?! i can't believe school starts in two days :[ this is UNACCEPTABLE! i still have to finish the gatsby and HOA assignments! i only have two more chapter analysis things for gatsby but i can't physically do anyy more! i'm so sick of thinking. i should have paced myself throughout the summer, but i obviously didn't and now my freakin' hands can't type anymore (which is why i'm doing that right niz-ow)
i got a new camera last weekend and it's cute and touchscreen! it's pretty much amazing! maya the great got a memory card for moi today at costco because she's a monstah!
on friday i had volleyball practice and then rushed to work. i was one of four waiters and it was pretty disgusting outside. i was there for an hour and i only had one table so they kicked me out aka told me to go home! i only made 5 dollahs of cash money! ridic.
sooo i went home and then me and maya went to "sunflower" (a vegetarian restaurant, it was so good) then went to lisa's house. naomi was there too! we took about 100 group pictures and they're all horrible. then naomi left and me, maya, and lisa watched "when a stranger calls". what a cute movie. i noticed a lot of stuff that i hadn't before. me and maya were supposed to sleep ovah at naomi's but then we couldn't so we were stranded at lisle's. she couldn't drive us home because it was after 12 so we crashed on her sofa bed. the next morning her mom came in and was suprised that we were there! it was cute.
since saturday i've pretty much been doing summer work. oh life. i worked again tonight and i made 44 dollah and 69 (AWESOME NUMBAH!) cents! that's purdy good for a sunday night. i had the cutest old couple! they were just so sweet and nice. when i clearing off their table, i saw that they had written a cute note. i forget exactly what it said but it was something like "sharing a smile is like sharing love. in love there are no impossibilities". awwwwww, i'm not sure why they left that/what it really means, but i think it's cool.
before i peace out, imma leave err'body a loki photoshoot!

"Work is a necessity for man. Man invented the alarm clock." Pablo Picasso
welll, i just got back from ledo's. it was pretty ridic because i only made 25 dollahh. but then a mentally challenged person came in and asked for support for his "walkathon", so i gave him $10. so now i only have 15 BILLS OF CASH MONEY! good karma perhaps?
NOOOOO! i was driving home avec my dad and when i parked, it was a little off, so i backed up so i could straighten out, but i freaking HIT MY NEIGHBOUR'S carrrr! i didn't see any damage, but then again it's dark out and maybe there is something...? that's basic the first semi-accident i've gotten into besides one time when i broke my side-view mirror on a tree. ahhha. but i start behind the wheel tomorrow! this better not be foreshadowing =[
i'm doing it with kaz but i can't find my "green card"! i heard he's chill though, so hopefully he'll let me do it without it. gawdddddddddddd. my schedule for tomorrow: volleyball from 9-11, mentor training from 12-4:30, and then behind the wheel from 4:30 to 6:30. oh lyfe, y b u so ka-ute.
make good choices and stuff.

"Suspect each moment, for it is a thief, tiptoeing away with more than it brings." John Updike
loki has cancer.
i found this growth on the side of his leg about 6 months ago but the vet said it was just a fatty tumor aka nothing to worry about. but they decided to remove it anyway. so he got it cut off last week and when they biopsied it they found out he has stage II mast cell cancer. that def isn't good but they were pretty optimistic because he's only 3!
he had an appointment at the vet today and they did other types of scans and found out he has another tumor on his foot. not goooooood! now he has to go through chemo. when it was only one, they could've done radiation (it has a better success rate), but with 2 tumors, it's not so simple. chemo only has a 50% success rate for this kind of cancer. and the fact that he has more than one means it's probably a "syndrom" and not a one time thing.
i'm just really upset and confused because i never expected ANYTHING like this to happen. i don't really know many of the details so i don't know what's next. i prob sound like a loo-terd for freakin' about a dog, but he's like my favorite thing in the world. he doesn't know what's going on so it's horrible to have to see him like this.
to make it all better, i have the last day of v-ball tryouts in less than an hour. i feel soooo crappy and this is basically the day that determines whether i make varsity or JV.
everyone had better be praying, voodooing, wishing at 11:11, or whatever for loki. au revoir

i'm tired of the frizz-eeking television and the computerrrr. i've only been stuck in the house for two days but it feels like a LOT longer. blahhhhhhhhhh.

" Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless." Thomas Alva Edison
I got all four of my wisdom teeth out at 9 AM today. I thought I would be in a hospital, but it was actually just like a dentist's office. I was in a flimsy chair and all that jazz. I had flip-flops on because I thought I would get awesome little hospital booties. The doc stuck a needle in me and that's the last thing I remember. Supposedly all my teet were "embeded". My mom was glad because that means insurance pays for more of it, but it hurts me more because I have to get dug around in. The procedure only took about 20-30 minutes. I woke up like an hour after the surgery in a tiny room on a bed. I guess that I was still kinda loopy from the anesthesia because my mom said I was asking for her to bring Loki to me and I was talking about SOLs. Cute!
We came home at 11 and I listened to my iPod for awhile and then fell asleep until 6:30. I'm STARVING! I haven't eaten anything since yesterday at 9 PM because I wasn't allowed to eat for 12 hours before anesthesia. When I got my tonsils out I couldn't eat for 6 hours before. Weird. Any-whoo, I can't eat food today. I can only drink cool or warm things. The only problem is that everything except for water makes my "wounds" sting. So I've only had water in like 24 hours. It's great. I love it. Tomorrow I can eat soft foods like egg and mashed potato. I have the feeling I'm going to recover pretty quickly =] My cheeks aren't SUPER swollen or sore, and I hope they aren't tomorrow either.
Maybe I'll get my summer assignments done this week. That would be gooddddddd, I haven't finished "Gatsby" or started "Radicalism".
I hope err'body has a supah-dupah, pain-free week! Yay rahh!

well... on sunday i went to the doctor because my ear hurt a lot. pretty cute. i have an ear infection aka the first one in forever or maybe even ever! idk. and tomorrow/today i get my wisdom teeth out. i'm kinda psyched slash REALLY not at all. i'm scared that i'll wake up and not be able to breathe. then i'll die. i don't actually think i'll die, but i'm nervous that it will hurt a ton and my life as i know it will be ovah fo' evah. i kid, i kid.
