hey thanks, thanks for that summer

so long sweet summer,
i stumbled upon you and gratefully basked in your rays
so long sweet slumber,
i fell into you, now you're gracefully falling away
-chris carrabba


dear summer 2009,
i think we should break up. we've had a lot of fun, but school is starting and i'm actually pretty excited for it. school brings a form of organization to my life that you, unfortunately, lack. if it makes you feel any better, you kicked summer 2008's butt. i would even go so far as to say you beat out summer 2007, and that's saying something. really, you're going down in the books as an absolute success.
yours forever,
me


can i just say that WHOA i start school in a week? as excited as i am, i'm sad summer is ending.

highlights:
countless girls nights
the proposal (i've only seen it 4 times)
the vegas
all american rejects concert
changing majors
trying to clock my running speed
x-men origins: wolverine
discovering MOJO!
california
harry potter 6
response from adam lambert
friends getting calls/leaving on missions
(500) days of summer
american idol concert
karaoke party!
getting through all 4 seasons of the oc (almost done)
transformers 2
institute/bowling nights
farkle!
spending enough time in the sun that i don't blend in with the walls anymore
family feud tryouts
mill ave trips
weddings
& other random adventures i can't think of right now


AND, just to not jinx the rest of my summers...


bummer deals:
first car accident
planning 2 cali trips and not going either time
friends getting calls/leaving on missions
getting sick for the 3rd time this year
running out of gas IN the parking lot of the gas station
...i think that's all.



yes, i've had a rockin' summer. but i still have a week and i fully intend to make the most of it :)

as i said, i'm sad. but i'm ready for school and for what little fall arizona gets. plus, i only have school mon-wed. and i don't work fridays. and i fly for free... meaning i can spend many a weekends in utah with bethanie. this might just be my favorite YEAR ever.
