summer spontaneity.

i was feeling spontaneous. which never really happens for me. i like to plan. i am a "j" after all. but this time i put my j tendencies aside, called up some friends and we headed down to malibu for the day. what a blast. larissa, jordan, debby and i piled in the jetta and headed south to meet up with shannon and spend the day beachin' it up malibu style that that we did. i was a hoot. shan and rissa are bffs now and it it hilarious. i love it when my friends from home and my friends from westmont like each other. i must make friends with cool people or somethin'. hehe. :) here a some fun pics from the trip. check it!

my one week summer vacation.

so my summer has been a bit awkward. i have been doing that summa skweel thang. it has been rough. mayterm ended and then a week later summer school at city college started. lame. meanwhile i was working every day. knarly. so in that week of summer, i took off a week from work and headed home to the sierras for some crowley fun. as my crew from crowley knows, there is nothing like summa time in crowley. skating ojah. playing on the lake. hiking. bbqs. quading. fishing. ah, so much fun. so i had to sneak home for my fix of crowley air and my family and buds. ah it was great. here are a few shots from that weekend.

the end and the beginning.

summa time. well, much to my dismay the vernal months are coming to an end. what happened to them? work is about to go into overdrive and is what some may say, "off the hook" or as a surfer might say "it is goin' off, bra". yup, that is the nature of Westmont Orientation. but i knew that when i accepted the job as Orientation Assisstant. its been good. challenging, education. and fun. i love my boss, michele, and the office i get to work in, the Campus Life Office. it is a hoot.

the apartment life has come to a abrupt and sad end and i am currently hunkered in a make-shift room in Deborah Clark Halls, D102. (i lived in this dorm freshman year and all the rooms are the same...which leads to bizzare dejavu experiences). i get to move into my permanant residence on thursday. van kampen k1. woot. i am excited.

I have had such a wonderful summer. and have cherished the moments i have gotten to spend with my buds down in santa barbara. larissa. janelle. dannah. nick. jordan. debby. michelle. brett. josh. katie. katy. peter. kimmy. and meg. thanks ya'll for such a FUN and exciting summer. love you all.

so here it comes...my senior year at westmont. whoa! i will have to talk about that on another post. too much to process there.
