Night at Mort's and Youth Group and the Abyss that is my Brain.

First off, I spent 15 hours and 40 minutes with Morgan from Saturday to today. It was amazing. I went over to her house at like 1:30 pm to pick her and Kourt to come with me to get my second set of ear piercings done at Claire's in the mall. After that we went to Target so I could buy her birthday present, the new Jonas Brothers cd, and make her eternally happy. Oh, when we were at Claire's I bought friendship necklaces for Morgan and I and they are the cutest things ever. We swore to never take them off, not even in the shower. She's my best friend and I love her like a sister. She's the kind of friend I could live with for a long time, like years. We went back to their house after Chico and hung out with Timmy and Chris for like ever. I went home to get clothes and other things for sleeping over and we all stayed up watching movies til 4 am. After that Timmy decided that he'd go home and Chris decided to spend the night with us girls. I fell asleep next to him and he stole my pillow so I stole a little corner of it back. He totally elbowed me like twice in the neck so I decided that I'd go sleep on the couch. At like 7 in the morning Kourt decided that she was freezing and that I must be cold too so she got me a blanket. It was really quite sweet. Then we made breakfast at noon and sat around watching Rush Hour 1 and 2. It was awesome. :D We went swimming like twice too. 

Youth group was good tonight. We kick butt at the relational aspect of a youth group. We have community down to a science. Seriously, its amazing. We had a grill out in Joshua's backyard, which was nice because the weather was great and not too hot and not too anything, it was perfect. There was a new girl there tonight. Her name was Yahna. She was nice, really quiet but she seemed pretty neat. 

So I'm pretty stressed out about starting college and buying my books and figuring out the bus schedule to get me down there on time and figuring out whether I want to be the new youth person instead of Joshua and when I want to move out of my parent's house and into the church and who will hire me and how I'll pay for my car insurance and how I'll pay for groceries and when the right time to move out is and this guy that I like and this other one, but I don't know if I really like him or just think he's super cute cuz I totally do think he's super cute and whether I feel like I need job security this early in my life and if I'm willing to be "homeless" to pursue the revolution brewing at our church in and the faith community. I'm just way confused and sleep deprived and nervous and stressed. 

But on the bright side, I'm super excited about my second set of ear piercings!

Fort Bragg - Silver's At The Wharf

Omg. My mom and I went to Silver's At The Wharf for dinner tonight and it was horrible...well, my order was. My mother ordered Seafood Platter en Brochette and I ordered simple Shrimp Scampi with lemon risotto. First off, the risotto wasn't the risotto of my dreams. It was molded and slightly congealed and a little bland. Then I took a bite of the shrimp and the taste that enveloped my tongue was atrocious. Something about the sauce they were basted and bathed in was off. The separate ingredients did not meld together to make a symphony for my taste buds to enjoy. I couldn't even identify the separate ingredients that were in the sauce. To say the least I was disappointed and thought that my dish was overpriced.

Our hotel is like right on the beach and its super pretty. I actually think Fort Bragg is like so much better when you camp. I don't like hotels at all, nothing is yours and its this weird alien environment, but thats where I am right now, so I'll deal with it. I'm tired right now, so I'll write more later.

Friday Dance Session and the Day That Occurred Beforehand

Ok, so I didn't really do all that much today. I watched a movie and planted some vinca for my mom before the sprinklers went off and went to the bank. Then I went to dance. I was feeling pretty good when I left my house and felt good when I got to the dance hall and I felt good when Mike got there. I didn't start feeling not so good til afterwards. He's just like super confusing to me. I don't know. I don't make much sense when I talk about him. It sucks. I kind of avoided him, well I avoided talking to him more that I absolutely had to and apparently he noticed. He said that he wanted to dance with me because I'm a good dancer. Maybe I should just forget that I like him and do the friendship thing like he wants. He has a freaking girlfriend! What am I doing?!? I need to be content with my life. I need to go think.

Oh, but on a lighter note, I ordered my MacBook and I got a new printer to go with it. The printer arrived today and hopefully the MacBook will be here when I get back from Fort Bragg.
