I foresee me writing here more to delay doing homework...
Well I'm all moved in, for the most part. Somewhat unpacked, do not have any furniture in my room so need to go to Ikea. Every morning I wake up with new bug bites, which has led me to believe I got some new roomies, bed bugs!- which is odd since I brought my mattress from home. Got 2 HUGE bites on my tucas, right cheek to be precise. School is too overwhelming to comprehend right now. I've changed my schedule countless times. Been writing this 1.5 page assignment for my american gov class for 2 days- I know 4 months ago when I was deep into school mode it would have taken me 45minutes. I'm almost tempted to post a picture of my butt cheeck on here, haha. Can;t wait to get the apartment together and have visitors, house warming party in October! Going home this weekend for a bit to get some stuff and see my lil man, and go to Schare BBQ. Feel so out of it right now. Battles tomorrow night, so pumped!! No idea when Cleo cat is going to be moving in, err acupuncture has bizarro hours, should find one out here. Alright back to my Constitution assignment.

Well I guess you could say summer has ended for me since my first day of class was yesterday. I'm all moved in! Yesterday the family headed out with all of my stuff to the apt. Pretty much when we got there I had to hop on the subway and go to school. The commute wasn't so bad, felt like 20min. Awesome view of the Brooklyn Bridge. School was stressful... Time to go home, transfered to the wrong train due to sleepiness. Figured out my mistake in time. Got home to my empty apartment, with no TV and no internet besides my BB. Cleaned a lot, unpacked a little. Natasha came around midnight with her man. I passed out when they came. Called Pete he was vrry drunk :/:/. Felt sad I couldn't go to the reunion show. Woke up at 9:40!= this is late for me. Was very bored. Waited for Jim Carey to come over an install cable and internetz. Woke Natasha and bf, which was hella awkward, needed to shower and needed someone to pick up the phone if the cable man called. Showered. Cable finally installed. Got zah. Went to Target!!! that had an escalator for the shopping cart, so awesome. Got some necessities. Had to deal with 2 crank ppl eerrr. Came home. Natasha's parents are here, dropping ALL her stuff off haha. Now I'm alone- Watching Mad Men. and Natasha is with her bf in the living room. Grizzly Bear tomorrow, ahhhhh!

Will post end of the summer entry soooon
and
photos of the apartment when we get everything together.

Thursday- Officially no longer a teen! Woke up very early and upset because of the rainy weather. Beach plans not happening. Got Strath with Peter, Tony, and Anna. On the way discovered two stop signs just waiting to be taken, so now I have some art for the apartment, haha. Tony wrote on the dry erase board for me! Saw a person from my past that gave me bunches of laughs. Went back to my house, Pete napped, Anna watched a movie and Tony and I coloured. Tony, Pete and I went to Avalon to feed the ducks and geese. Afterwards we went to Port Jeff and got some food, ohhh delicious fries! After lunch we went to Leah's for a swim and hot tubbin. Then went back home get ready for dinner. Met up at Hooters with Keri, Natasha, Steph, Leah. Our waitress had no boobs, we hoot'd and hollered at the Yankee game, was seriously embarrassed with the Hooters birthday song, Keri got me a hooters shirt. Jon dropped by. Then went to Keri's to see the lil kittens, oh so0o0o0o cute! Thennnn went to Anna's for fire pit. Then went home and passed out.

Friday- Woke up, opened a new bank account, picked up leah, went to the mall. Came home left leah at my house, went to do loan stuff with ma mom. Came home, got leah, went to Costco! Took Leah home. Went to see Wedding Singer musical with Tony to support my man (plays in the pit orchestra). It was torturous, but of course Tony and I entrained ourselves and survived. After show went to supermarkets and Wendy's. Went home passed out.

Saturday- Woke up. Went to my first acupuncture appt. Found out I'm allergic to a bunch of stuff that prob causes a lot of my health issues. Got poked. Felt extremely relaxed when I left. Got some party supplies. Pete came over to help me get ready for the bbq. Running all over the place. People started arriving. I got some awesome gifts, mostly related to cats or cupcakes, haha. A lot of great people came. I used a BBQ for the first time ever. Steph and Leah made me cupcakes of my face which were awesome. Was really great to see a lot of wonderful people. Thanks everyone for an amazing birthday ^__^

( BBQ )

This week was filled with stress! I was really lucky to have a funky work schedule this week, I had Monday-Wednesday off. I do not know what I did on Monday and Tuesday hmmmm. Wednesday woke up very early. Natasha and her parents came and followed my dad and I to Brooklyn to look at an apartment (which turned out to be the one!). Hit some nasty traffic. Everyone liked the apartment (read more to hear details). Natasha's parents went back home. The rest of us went to another reality place ot fill out paperwork for an apartment we decided against later on. Then we picked up my dad's writer friend Gabriel, who lives a few blocks away from us now! We went to lunch at Picked Fence and waited forever for our food. Went home to try to miss traffic, which was lightly successful. That night had a complete meltdown and sobbed like a baby (pretty much due to Lady week). Peter told me to shut up haha. Went to a party at Adam Martin's. Had fun, even though I was exhausted and sad. Peter got a little drunk and was babbling and being silly, Alex got a big kick out of it. Went home early because had work early the next morning boooo. So worked all day Thurs and Fri like a big girl. TODAY my whole fam, Natasha and her dad and bro went to the apartment to sign the lease! All very exciting. Our lease starts Aug 15, we will both still be working, so we will be moving in slowly. We can paint our walls and are planning on having a painting party for all our friends to help. Natasha and her clan went back home. My dad gave us a driving tour of his old neighborhood and the "Moe Prager" tour of Brooklyn. Then headed home and hit traffic. I'm getting very sick of the drive. I just bought Little King's Story for Wii and want to play it so bye!

Thursday- Went to the dentist. Very complicated- I go to my mom's dentist in Sea Cliff. I have two cavities :( but found out my wisdom teeth are going to grow happily in my jaw!!!
Friday-Tony came over for a little. I was out of it and headachey, so nothing too exciting. Before he came over I baked awesome banana bread.
Saturday- Peter and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary of our first date. We went to Maureen's Kitchen for pancakes (where we went in our first date). Then came home, melted in my hot room, went on a walk. Played at Wenonah. Then James came over, then Keri. We went to the puppy store out in Riverhead. OMGGG so cute!!! Then we went to Roadhouse and ate some excellent zah. In back of the pizza place there is a dinosaur? Took some silly photos.
Today, Sunday- Woke up, got bagels. My dad wanted to go to brooklyn and look at areas for me to live in! Met up with his writer friend, Gabriel. He lives in Ditmas Park, and plays very low rent due to the fact that the previous woman who lived their shot her husband in the bathroom, hahha! Got lunch. Visited some affordable neighborhoods, really enjoyed South Park Slope. Came home. I am tooootally exhausted right now, prob b/c heat and my ovaries. Game night tonight ^__^
