it's been a while...it's summer time!

I know-- it's been a while since i've written. Here's a recap:

-Memorial Day weekend, 2 weekends before Hell Week (finals week), i decided to take a much needed, long over due, spontaneous solo trip down to San Diego to visit my big bro Steven. My initial plan was to take the bus early in the morning to catch the only metrolink going out to Orange County (in order to transfer and take Amtrak down to San Diego); Buttttttt, i missed my stop. xP. So i freaked out, tried calling my friend to see if she or anyone else could take me back, but that didn't work out. So i waited until i saw a stop i recognized, the stop at the mall. Called Steven frantically so he could find me another way to get to Orange County....So i took the bus to Orange County, then once in OC, i got lost again, so i called the bus whatever hotline thing, and found my way. Bought my tickets (round trip tickets) and i was on my way. The trip should have taken me about 3 hours, but since i messed up, it took me about 7 hours hahahaha xP. But it was definitely a learning experience. Once i got there, it was great to see Steven. He picked me up, took me back to his apartment, I met his friend Andrea, he took me to Costco and then made me a nice home cooked meal (i had been craving one for what felt like forever!). That night, went to a house party. Half of the people there were old dance team mates of my brother's, so it was fun to see drunk people ball room dancing. The downside, some drunk guy tried to dance with me and touched my neck. But he quickly backed off. This other creeper danced with me (i kept my distance) and he was so incredibly cheesy. First he threw this line at me : "you're gorgeous....in a platonic way"...wtf? lol. Then he kissed my hand. Andrea was standing off to the side, protective, and waiting to cut in if anything crazy happened. I laughed the kiss off. Then he kissed my hand again. Over it, i thanked him, and left him there, confused. He was such a creeper hahaha. Second day was chill. I went to the mall with Andrea, bought a bikini(Steven wanted to take me to the beach but he forgot to tell me to buy a swim suit!), went out for tea, and came back. At night Steven and i saw Sex and the City 2. I was so offended by a lot of the messages the movie was sending out about the Middle East and how they treat women by their manner of dress. I felt it was ignorant (I feel this way because my best friend is Middle Eastern and i respect her culture and hold it up to such a high esteem). It was better than expected, the clothes were great, the plot was slightly better than the first movie, but for the most part, i didn't like it. I normally don't like sequels (the first movie counts as a sequel too xP. I'm a big fan of the show!). The final day, woke up and went to brunch with my bro, his roomies, and his good friend Allison (absolutely love her!). Brunch was great :]. That night, Allison came over and helped me with my application and resume for an undergrad research assistant job i want to be a part of ...it's this professor's lab on campus. The job doesn't pay, but it definitely pays off. It counts as 2 units and is a great thing to have on my record! Anyways, overall, San Diego Trip alone = success!
-Weekend before finals week, Kevin came over and we spent the whole day sleeping and watching movies lol.
-Finals week. 3 finals, all written. And i think i did well. Let's hope for straight A's!
-Today (or technically, yesterday, Sunday) was my big bro's graduation from UCSD! :]. I'll post up pictures from both the San Diego trip and the graduation pics soon!
-I'm excited for summer. SO SO SO excited. Tons of plans....i'll update later. Now: desperate housewives!
