New Hair!

I got my hair done Wednesday night! I really like it!! It's really dark, but that's what I wanted so yay! Now, I just need to get a little color back in my face. I've been really sick for the past couple of days, and I'm finally starting to feel a little bit better. I've pretty much been horizontal for 48 hours. Yuck. In other news, I found out today I got rejected by Boston University. I knew it was coming, so whatever. So far I've been rejected from 3/4 schools I've applied to. I feel like I wasted a lot of time and money on those stupid schools. ROAR! I'm an idiot. The last one I'm waiting for is Kent State for an MS in Chemistry, so even if I get in (odds are I won't) I don't know if i want to go and do chemistry. So, I dunno really what's going to happen. I guess I should start looking for jobs, or maybe going to get my teaching credential. Anyway, I'm off to eat for the first time today...I've probably lost 5 pounds from being sick..NOT GOOD! Good luck to everyone else waiting to hear back from grad schools.

Something Worse...

Believe it or not, there is actually something worse than stanky coffee breath. As most of you probably already know, I did not get into NYU. =( Their letter even said, "We cannot believe you applied here, what were you thinking? Idiot." Just kidding, they didn't say that, but I am really disapointed that I didn't get in. Luckily, I was on my way to San Diego when I found out so I had a nice weekend to get my mind elsewhere. Poo on NYU. Rejection sucks. But hey, my mom and my aunt are going to take me on vacation to New York this summer. WOOT! I'm still waiting to hear back from Boston University and Kent State. I doubt I'll get into Boston, but Kent is possible...but I'm not even sure if I want to go there. Ugg I wish I was a trust fund baby and I could just go shoe shopping all day.

On a lighter note, I had a blast in San Diego with Tim this weekend. We left SLO at 11 on Friday morning and didn't get to San Diego until 830!!! Damn rain and lame lame lame LA. We stayed at the Grand Hyatt by the harbor downtown, and it was probably the nicest hotel I've been to. When we arrived, there was a bottle of wine on ice and cheese, crackers and fruit...we couldn't figure out why we were so special, but I finally realized it was probably my mom! So I called her and sure enough, she had made arrangements with the hotel to surprise us with treats!!! What a sweet mom!

We dressed in green and went to Mooses to meet up with some of Tim's friends. We drank for a bit, and chair danced until it was time to walk back to the hotel. We went to the very top of the Hyatt to the bar that looks over the bay and the city. It was beautiful!!!

Saturday, we slept in and checked out of the hotel. I didn't want to leave!! Tim showed me places he used to live and his old highschool and all his favorite places to eat. We hung out with his dad for a bit and got ready for Tim's friend's 21st birthday party. It was a black and pink party at the Barona Casino. This party was incredible! It was decorated like a wedding with pink and black balloons, pink roses, pretty table settings with name placards and a wine glass filled with goodies for everyone to take home. There was a dj, and an open bar, and a three course dinner and coffee. Tim and I swing danced, and attempted salsa but my feet kept getting tangled in the balloon strings, my bra was falling, and I was a bit tipsy so we probably looked silly, but it was a blast. After the party, Tim, Dan, Ali, and I went to the casino and the guys gambled while us girls gave them good luck with our magic pink rings. It worked because they both won!! Later that night we went to Tim's mom's house and hung out for a bit before bed. Tim's family is so sweet!! I had a really nice time meeting them, and seeing where Tim grew up!

To do:

• Go to Disneyland
• Dye my hair chocolate
• House sit in April for 10 days
• Get rich

Nothing Worse

There's nothing worse than coffee breath. EWW! I drank two hazelnut mocha's this morning and now my mouth tastes like shit. I am afraid for those who have to talk to me (stay away!). I can't wait to go home and brush my teeth. SHIT! My toothbrush is still in Atascadero! Okay, new rule: There's nothing worse than having bad coffee breath and no toothbrush. :(

There's nothing better than a big, juicy In and Out cheeseburger (purchased from a DRIVE THRU!!!!). I had the luxury of enjoying one last night while I was up in Atascadero housesitting. I devoured that sucker. I plan on having another one sometime this weekend.

BTW, T-5 days until I hear from NYU. (I'm not getting in.)

Failure to Launch tomorrow! Can't wait. So excited. MM and SJP rock my world. (Especially combined with a bit of Helya and Rachel)

P.S. Don't use this new (worthless) blog as an excuse not to respond to my last one--it is more important. Do it!

Peace out Nucca.

Change your hair, change your life?

I'm thinking of dying my hair dark brown (via Carlos). I just feel like I need a change. My hair is so boring and I always have it the same way. It's really annoying that I've looked exactly the same in every picture for the past 5 years. On one hand, I do think it looks good light and blonde, but on the other hand, I always have it light, so maybe a change will be refreshing and exciting (and hot)? Some people say they liked when my hair was dark (when I dyed it myself a couple years ago), and I liked it too, but then others tell me they only like it blonde. ROAR! I need some more opinions. I am not afraid to change it, in fact, I love taking risks, but I just want to make sure I'll still have friends. :)

Some pictures of me with darker hair--for your voting pleasure.

The Space Between

I LOVE TIM.
I also love Dave Matthews. I wish I wrote this song.
Does anyone know if it's possible to link to a song from
this blog so that people can hear it as they read this?
If not, go to MYSPACE and listen...

You cannot quit me so quickly
There's no hope in you for me 
No corner you could squeeze me 
But I got all the time for you, love

The Space Between 
The tears we cry 
Is the laughter keeps us coming back for more
The Space Between 
The wicked lies we tell 
And hope to keep safe from the pain

But will I hold you again?
These fickle, fuddled words confuse me
Like 'Will it rain today?'
Waste the hours with talking, talking 
These twisted games we're playing

We're strange allies
With warring hearts 
What wild-eyed beast you be
The Space Between
The wicked lies we tell
And hope to keep safe from the pain

Will I hold you again?
Will I hold...

Look at us spinning out in
The madness of a roller coaster 
You know you went off like a devil 
In a church in the middle of a crowded room 
All we can do, my love
Is hope we don't take this ship down

The Space Between 
Where you're smiling high
Is where you'll find me if I get to go
The Space Between
The bullets in our firefight
Is where I'll be hiding, waiting for you 
The rain that falls 
Splash in your heart
 Ran like sadness down the window into...

The Space Between 
Our wicked lies 
Is where we hope to keep safe from pain
Take my hand 
'Cause we're walking out of here
Oh, right out of here 
Love is all we need here

The Space Between 
What's wrong and right 
Is where you'll find me hiding, waiting for you 
The Space Between
 Your heart and mine 
Is the space we'll fill with time 
The Space Between...




I get goosebumps...
