Last day of work!!! and my hair...

Have you ever gotten a REALLY bad haircut? I mean a disgustingly frayed and choppy pile of string on your scalp? Well, I did...on Saturday! I mean, this hairdresser literally said, "Just so you know, I will kind of do my own thing, but I'll work with you." Can you believe it!! Well, I cried, oh my gosh did I cry (ok, sounds a little like that 4 Non-Blondes song there...) and I had an especially bad break down right before church because I was determined everyone would think I looked like a boy...but lo and behold, the hair dresser angels were smiling down on me, becuase after I fixed myself up, I actually liked it so much better!! So, if you happen to see me around campus you'll just have to judge for yourself whether I'm approaching that gender-switching hair barrier or not...but if you do recognize me, you probably spend way too much time on facebook anyways, so who are you to judge?!? haha...well, yes it's true, this is also my last day of work...it's been good, but I'm excited to go back to school, and get back into the rigamaroll of things again. And today is my last, sniff, time downtown! With buildings over 10 stories!!! ahhh!!! and the ocean, and everything that I love dearly about this city!!! Oh well, I'll just have to see what Provo has in store for me this year...

Friday, Friday...

Yay! The weekend has arrived, the sun is shining and we got pizza at work today...well, I realize that I haven't written in awhile, so here is a little update: I leave the beautiful city of Seattle next Thursday for Provo--ickily hot, mountainous Provo, but I'm excited none the less! I do love being at home with the oceanic views, the liberals, the Starbucks on every corner, and buildings over 5 stories (the SWKT does NOT count!)...School should be good though. It's gonna be a hard adjustment living with people I don't know, working everyday and having to start being serious about my classes becuase, yes, I will need to actually know this stuff in the future!!! But I'm excited for the new wardies, the parties, and of course my late-night dates with "Harry Lee." I also haven't seen my amigos in awhile too, so that will be fun, even though we'll be, sniff, about 5 blocks away from eachother! Brynn and I are thinking about starting a band. Me on drums, her on the keyboard, Alyssa on the groovy tambourine, and Jaimo, or maybe Brandon on guitar. I wanted to call it THE CHARLOTTE PROJECT, or maybe the less austentacious, THE CHARLOTTE EXPERIENCE. However, I was shot down both times. sheesh. Well, I guess I have more important things to think about now, like packing, saying goodbye to high school friends, and my brow waxing appointment with a woman named Paulette on Tuesday...

Sick day...

Last night was just terrible...you know that dry, irritated, scratchy feeling you get on the roof of your mouth when you've been breathing out of your mouth for a while because your nose is too clogged up to inhale/exhale out of? Well, that was my night...pure torture!!! I don't know how I mustered up the strength to make it into work today--my ears are so stuffed up that I can hardly hear a thing, my eyes are runny, my nose, well, it's practically running away from me, and my mouth, well let's not even talk about how dry it is! Luckily though, the pounding headache that I had yesterday is gone.

So, I got some more stuff to do at work today--surprising how quickly the time flies by when you're occupied. Not that data entry is intellectually stimulating, but atleast it's something to do...

When I was cleaning my room last night, I got a really good idea for a story (short story) to write, so I can't wait to get home, get into my sweats with a brownie sundae, curl up on my back porch with my cat and my notebook, and just write away...

Yep, well, that's about it for today--Adios!!!

The life of a Data Entry Slave...

Staring out the window of the 40th floor of my place of employment I can see the Space Needle and a sweeping view of Puget Sound. I can make myself virtually ANY mocktail under the sun, use a pretty nifty set of binoculars to stare at my worker-bee counterparts accross the street, oh, and have time to create this blogspot because I am the last one here, and was left with zilch, sip, nunca, nada to do!!! Some might say that this is a pretty plush set up, but I really cannot stand idle time at the workplace. At home, that's another thing, because I'm constantly surrounded by things to do, such as my ever-growing pile of scrapbooks to make, songs to learn, or books to read. But here, I just try and make myself look busy by typing away on the computadora, fantasizing that I am penning some sleek little column for the New Yorker or something of that ilk....not to worry, dear reader, my summer of "looking busy" will come to an end soon as I am heading back to the "Y" in 2 1/2 weeks to start my junior year!! I don't know why, but I get this whinnied, heart-pounding excitement whenever I think about this next school year--who knows what it will bring? A killer internship at a fabulous ad agency or magazine? True love? The discovering of my life's destiny? A new book penned by yours truly? Or maybe just a great set of roommates who will do thier dishes! haha... well, whatever it is, I'll keep you posted! Cheers!!
