more flags more fun

And another week+ has passed without an update from me. I was thinking the other day about how this is the longest lasting journal I've ever had. Exciting stuff? Maybe not. xD

*points at icon* SO MUCH AWESOME THERE ARE NO WORDS. I bought the Season 1 Robin Hood box set from ebay yesterday and now I will sit and fidget until it gets here. I need Season 2 as well.. but its too new so it's still pretty much full price everywhere. BUU!! *not obssessed I swear* 0=)

Last Wednesday I went with my brother, his gf, my sister and 3 of her friends to Six Flags to celebrate my sister's bday. Long story short: Only 2 of those friends came back with us. The third one had to call her parents to get her because security was kicking her out. It was not a MORE FLAGS MORE FUN situation at all. In fact, it was a pretty shitty day until the last 4 or so hours.

( Story under here )

On Sunday my grandma left to return to Chile. =( I spent tons of time with her in those last couple days and it was really sad to see her go. I have my room back.. but still sad.

Nick moves into his dorm on Friday. I feel old and wishing that I could be moving into a dorm at UCONN this year. I miss school....

*ponder*

I wish my mom wouldn't be so hypocritical and get mad at me all the time for not going to work early enough and thus "not working enough". And then tell me that I should skip out of work for the afternoon to go to the new students picnic so I could "have some fun." THIS DEFEATS THE PURPOSE OF WORKING ALL MY HOURS. I'm leaving early anyway to go to the mall because I'm bored and boss is gone and I have nothing to do. xD I just didn't want to go be awkward at the picnic.

Baby is releasing some lucky packs at 11pm my time tonight. $92 could get me a jsk in the style of my lavender one, a blouse, socks and some hairpins. SO TEMPTED THAT I MIGHT TRY AND GET ONE ANYWAY. I need socks bad.. and I guess if the blouse dun fit, I could always sell it. I want more loli clothes.. ;_;

update update update

I rather suspect I am going into one of those "post often on LJ" phases. Probably because Justin is away and no one else ever talks to me online or otherwise about what I do on a daily basis, or what I'm thinking about. So I turn to just typing it out.

I ended up leavin work early and going to Westfarms. Halfway through my visit, all could think was that I was disappointed in the mall. They're turning upscale on me! I don't need more upscale shopping, I have blue back square for that! (How'd they come up with that name anyway? it's weird). I mean, they have the crazy weird underwear store. Enough preppy expensive stores for everyone (hollister, abercrombie, gap, ae, j crew, etc). There's even a Tiffanys's now. They added in an H&M (which is so awesome) but even that one is fancier looking and carries less casual things than the one in Manchester (And of course plays appropriately European sounding techno). Also the FYE is gone. Where am I supposed to by the odd cd or DVD now?! Going across the street to Best Buy is such a waste of time if I'm in the mall.

Anyway.. I went to Border's Express. I am saddened. Their sci-fi/fantasy section is a sad mockery of what it used to be. I can almost forgive them since they have an excellent manga section.. almost. The massive Twilight displays ruin that for me. Speaking of manga, omg more .hack world manga. While the anime was meh for me, I enjoyed the Twilight Bracelet manga and am happy with the new additions to the book version of the world. Also.. Kujibiki Unbalance manga wut?

I have pinpointed why it is that I wish so badly that I were going back to UCONN for school and dorming this year. My brother moves in tomorrow and he has basically done little to none of his own packing. I know that he's a guy, so he's not going to be like me and make lists of things to bring.. and sit and make sure everything is there. And yknow... really care that all his things are there. But srsly. My mom and I packed most of his things for him and did all the school shopping. And with all this prep, it just makes me wish a million times more that it was for me instead.
