Hmm.. .

I have the nagging suspicion that I should be doing something right now, I just don’t know what. So instead, I will just spill the contents of my mind on here. Stuff that I have been wanting to say fora while.. .

jamiewine has updated his lj again. I get so excited when he does. He’s in Costa Rica on EAP and is having a wonderful time. I miss that boy.

I also miss hollywoodkiwi. I could even argue that I miss her more than Jamie simply because we lived together. Juan and I miss her a lot. She lived in our apartment during Fall qtr, before she left for New Zealand on EAP. I miss her so much more now that Shalea is gone. Our new housemate(s) just stays in her room when she is here, with her friend. It’s like they’re either both here, or they’re both gone. They only cook and shop for themselves, which is fine, but it seems like sometimes they go out of their way to keep to themselves, and that really bothers me. For example: The trash can in the kitchen can be practically barfing trash out because it is so full. What she’ll do is cook, put her trash in a little plastic bag and go out and throw it away. It’s just little things like that that really bother me. Or sometimes, we’ll be watching the exact same show on TV, me in the living room, all alone, and they will be in her bedroom, and it won’t be until I hear them laughing at the same time as me that I realize that we are watching the same thing. I was very welcoming of them, even though she never told me that it was a two package deal. They seem nice, scratch that, they are nice, but, I dunno, they just seem to not want to have anything to do with us. That makes me sad because Juan is never home (he’s off in the comp. labs and stuff), Ramon was never really here to begin with, so that leaves me, the sad little lonely homebody, home, alone. I miss you Holly and Shalea!

I miss Holly’s “You guys. . . !” and her “What’s up Juanitza?!”, and the times we would just sit on the bed and talk for what seemed like hours about good stuff and bad. We really bonded. She had this radiant energy that she gave off in the house, you just couldn’t help noticing that she was there. Oh yeah, and peaches, her rat, too. 🙂

I miss Shalea. She came back from Chile and came straight for our apartment after Holly left. I was really excited about that. Her dad was a bit reluctant about it because he was afraid that we would end up getting on each other’s nerves. You see, the thing with Shalea and me is that we are so alike. We see eye to eye on so many things. I noticed that by the end of the quarter, I was finishing off her sentences. There is this one time I particularly remember, we took a hike down to the San Lorenzo River (right behind our apts). We sat on the bank watching the water and the ducks. We were quite, enjoying our lunch, the view, nature in general. I watched the male ducks practically harrasing the female ducks. The males would ward off other males, while the female tried to get away from the males. I admired the green male ducks because they just looked so much prettier than the brown female ducks. Then I broke the silence and said “You know, we are so backwards”, and Shalea said, “Oh my God! I was thinking the exact same thing!”. We were thinking about how in the animal kingdom, in most cases, the male has to woo the female by displaying interesting coloration and stuff like that, while the females look more drab. Us humans do it backwards. Females put on all the make-up and colorful clothes and stuff. I dunno, it was just our train of thought. I think that it was amazing that out of all the things we could have been thinking about individually, we were both thinking the same thing, so much so, that my general comment made 100% sense to her (even if at this point you have no clue as to what I am talking about).

I want to rant on, but my shift is almost over, so that means I have to wrap things up a bit.

I have to talk to Heyzen about the hotel and when the come over and stuff. I have to talk to Alex and give her some bittersweet news. I still have to tell you guys about Juan Magallon. I still want to set up our 2nd 4th floor LSKB reunion potluck. Oh, and I want to talk about bio graduation. Oh, so many things to talk about.

One random comment. You know what bothers me? It shouldn’t, but it does. I hope that people comment on my entries, you know, just so that I know someone cares about me enough to read them, especially the long entries. But for some reason (especially the long ones), my entries don’t receive comments. It shouldn’t bother me, and it doesn’t really bother me all that much, just wanted to let it out.
