Sunday
Today was an amazing day but i'm too tired to type enough to do it justice. So here's the condensed version. Was at Dave's by 9:00, headed out in the porsche for our Malibu Lava Rock Pool hike/swim. Got there, wasn't much of a hike, more of an easy 15 minute stroll, but it was sooooo cool once we got there! (After going the wrong way and ending up at the wrong body of water). I have an incredible sense of direction. Never doubt it! So we get there and Dave doesn't wanna go in cause it's stagnant water (although it wasn't actually stagnant cause there was a dam on the other side of the rocks and it led to a small stream), dorian doesn't wanna go in because he doesn't wanna hike back to the car soaking wet. Wimps! Leigh and I manned up and jumped in! It was wonderful! The water was perfectly refreshing and just being able to swim in fresh water here is wonderful! We're totally gonna come back when it's not a weekend and kids are in school.
Walked back to the car and headed north to Neptunes for lunch. Had wonderful deep fried fishy goodness and cherry coke. Definitely the first time i'd had cherry coke since the year it came to canada (but it will always remind me of florida trips when it didnt exist in canada).
After lunch we went to our next destination, El Matador Beach. Cool rock formations, cool cliffs ,but way too crowded. Again, need to come back on a weekday!
Next up: Blockbuster to rent The Bounty Hunter, Whole Foods for dinner and back to Venice for movie/cuddlefest round two.
Monday
Hiked. Green drink. Picked up Raph and surfed Venice. The waves were viscious and I got tossed around a lot, however, I rode some good waves. Dropped Raph off at his place, went to the sepulveda gym, tanned for an hour and read in a cabana for half an hour. Went home, did homework, went to Culver City M Cafe for dinner cause I had to draw a reflected ceiling plan/furniture plan for my lighting class, met Leigh and Pinkberry after and heard the most devastating news: Jordan Steele my Pinkberry boyfriend no longer works there! I feel so bad! The last time i was there he told me to add him to facebook but when i tried i couldn't find him, and then i went home for a month so he probably thought i just didnt care about him! Mr. Steele, wherever you are, I hope you've found a job that is much more enjoyable than good old Pinkberry. Then Leigh and I went back to her house to watch The Bachelorette. Got home at 10:30 and did homework, cause that's what happens when Dorian's in town and he doesn't let you do your homework.
Tuesday
Woke up. Did homework (that was due today - this is SO not my style). But got it done and got it done WELL - thanks to Daddykins and his help with controlled natural lighting and fritted glass! Went to my trainer, it was sadly my last sesh for a while cause I can't afford it anymore, I'll miss you Jad. Came home, finished homework. Had lunch. Went to school for my 2:00 career services appt.
Get there at 1:45 and Ray tells me to come on in. Several mins later the secretary comes in saying his 2:00 appt was here, i was like "that's me!" and she checks her list and it turns out that i'd signed up for LAST week. How embarrassing. How unprofessional. BUT he said that the architect called him about me and is interested and that if I get this internship I should take it even if it is in Long Beach. Wish me luck for my interview on Thursday!
Went to class, we had a canadian oreo party - everyone agreed they were better except Caitlin. But she loves Oreos so i can understand not liking something thats so similar but so different.
Presentation Techniques rocks. I love it. I love Harper. I love markers. I love rendering! It's just three hours of pure toxic smelly fun! It makes me love school so much... and then i go to Lighting Design and want to light my hair on fire. Our midterm is as much work as our CDC FINAL. She doesn't explain ANYTHING. She doesn't seem to like us very much. BUT she's from Montreal so at least we've got that Canada connection and maybe hopefully she'll like me. I also did a kickass presentation today - Daddykins: she didn't even know about fritted glass! And she loved the airport.
Got home at 9:30. I hate this schedule. I have to get up at 6:30 for class again in the morning and then i somehow have to get all my shit put together and printed for my interview ... I might be up REALLY late tomorrow night. I"m scared.
Goodnight!
