I really forgot that I had a blog. Like Bea did, I’ll just prove that I haven’t died. I’m in a good mood, and I’m counting the days until I’m free of RM for two months. The past fours days at the beach gave me a really good taste of summer and I want it now.
This summer I’m planning to live in Dewey. I’ll work at Beach Break and get free blended coffee all day, and then I’ll come back to the house to play volleyball with the home-made net that I crafted (a rope from the outdoor stairs to an upturned chair) until my forearms ache. By then it’ll be time to eat so we’ll walk to the board walk and buy Louie’s and then Kohr Bros. Then we’ll take the Jolly Trolly home and ignore the obnoxiously drunk forty-somethings who think they’re twenty-somethings. Then it’ll be late and time to go down to the beach where we can sit and relax until the next day when I have to go and be paid to drink icy lattes down the street.
…I wish, but this summer should still be stunner/money (I can’t choose which hip lingo to use). In the mean time, I can comfort myself with the fact that life right now is pretty good, regardless of school attendance. First and foremost, I’ve learned to tolerate RM. Also, I got a new racket, and I’m excited to try it out ASAP. And, my mom is really into paying me to do stuff recently, like… twenty bucks for taking out the trash, and another ten for bringing in the groceries. I’m not complaining, but it’s sort of strange. Like yesterday she gave me thirty dollars for “all my help that day.” I never knew that talking on the deck and ignoring her was helpful, and I wish she had told me a while ago.
On a less prosperous note, I lost my wallet. Oh, and my cell phone and iPod. Anyway…

Damn you and your beach. It’s been raining and windy here. Haha and your lingo! Too cool. In England, we would’ve said ” well cool” or “a rave” or lush.” And I feel really lame but I don’t know any of the songs on your playlist. But I do know the Ting Tings and Kanye West (duh).

Haha, I just downloaded Bittersweet Poetry yesterday after my friend played it for me. And I’ve been playing it/singing it nonstop today. For real.
And jeez, for a bit I thought you were serious about living in Dewey and I was so jealous.
But then you were kidding.
I’ll be in China. Getting laughed at for my American accent. And then volunteering at an art camp, which should be fun.
And, that sucks about your lost items. I remember our mission to look for your wallet, which didn’t really succeed.

and i had just given up on checking your blog regularly, haha.
my mom said she’d pay me to clean my room, but…you haven’t seen my room.
and have i told you i’ve considered getting an honest to god ipod just so i can say “ipod” instead of “mp3 player” which is terribly awkward. and i feel like a poser with a knockoff ipod.
