Lena is back

In California. It has been over a year I think since our meet-up for her farewell gathering. 

I guess I will write a quick blog since I'm on this page anyways. In late June one of my favorite Jacqueline Carey came by on book tour and a local publication had an interview scheduled with her for before the signing and they asked me to conduct it. Amazing. I only had about five minutes to prepare, but I think I asked pretty decent questions. 

Right now I am in an art history class at West Valley as well as an archaeological field school over in Santa Cruz. The art history class is really good, except I didn't go today because I missed the bus and decided that since I was going to be late anyways I would just copy the notes from someone tomorrow. The field school is really fun, too, and next weekend will be much better because I will have sunscreen and the other people on site will know what is going on so we don't have to sit around listening to explanations as much. 

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince comes out in theaters Wednesday, but I am waiting until my stupid best friend gets back from stupid Washington D.C. in early August. I expect Bruno to be somewhere between decent and hilarious based on reviews, but knowing Harry Potter is showing in the next theater over will be difficult. Bleeeh nerd. 

Oh and I burned myself with the nozzle of a hot glue gun, but it is okay because I have a Little Mermaid band-aid. Anyone have anything interesting going on? I know it is difficult to top Disney band-aids, but I haven't heard from a lot of you in a long time. 

i do evil things and evil things return

i can die happy right now.


because i finally saw IAMX.



I touched my fucking musical GOD aka Chris Corner.



eye contact with CC almost made me die and fangirl like a maniac.



<3


thats all
im just posting everywhere.

Finally, another post

Oh my goodness, I haven't posted in here in so long... I'm sorry! I've been lurking instead!

So um... you guys probably have much better weather than I do... it's been drizzly and rainy for most of the week and doesn't look like it'll stop. =(

There's this tradition here that on the first day of May, a lot of teenage guys put crepe-paper decorated birch trees in front of their girlfriend's house. They look somewhat like this (obviously, there are variations in color and how the crepe-paper is attached):



That one's in the village where my grandparents live.

And most villages have a village Maibaum too. You can read about it on Wikipedia:

I know I'm not in Bavaria, but it's pretty much the same here.

And... I don't know. I'm coming back July 6. When will I see you guys?!

I'm almost finished with my end-of-the-year exams. I only have one left.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Lena

i have a season pass to six flags

so if anyone wants to go....im down




=]
i wanna use the hell out of that thing.

hi. nee-sa here. sabrina inspired me to post.

school still sucks. still doing radio show.

but the reason i felt obligated to post is because in aprox 4 months i will no longer be a part of the northern california despair faction. well, i'll always be one at heart, at least.

BUT. i'm going to college. either in boston or santa barbara. don't know yet.

and since obviously i have no idea what i'll be doing four years from now after college, i might come back here or i might never be a true norcaldfer AGAIN. AH :(

so basically we need to meet up.

do you guys realize that our last meet-up was lena's going away party?! WHAT ARE WE DOING. i bet our next one will be her welcome home party...when is that silly girl supposed to be coming home anyway?

OC in 3 days!

So I haven't posted on here in a while, I'm listening to Tanya leave an irritating message on a girl's answering machine. I feel kinda bad but I don't like the girl so whatever.
But yeah, as it says in the title, I will be in Southern California in three days. I'm excited, it's going to be like a DF meet up of some sorts. Which speaking of... WHY HAVEN'T WE HAD A MEET UP IN OVER A YEAR? Whatt the hell guys, seriously. I still want to roller skate as our next meetup, or bowling again at a real bowling alley, that was so much fun. We should have one for the summer. Since everyone should be here. The middle of June, maybe?
Also, who's going to Warped in SF? I got presale tickets so I get early entry into the venue and I'm probably going to be hanging around the SKSK tent all day, except for when bands I like are playing. So we should all meet up at some point, that would be awesome as well.

Um, yeah. My life is pretty uneventful, so I don't really have anything else to say. I just thought I needed to update on here because I haven't in 4624590765 years, true fact.


I MISS YOU GUYS!
