Long Weekend!

I'm so glad that it is finally Lond Weekend, a chance to go home, relax, earn some money, and catch-up on homework!

Wednesday - I got home and my dad and I went to California Pizza Kitchen for a late lunch. I kind of like having him home all the time, although I know that is bad for our financial situation. Then I spent time arranging my pictures onto a CD so that I could go to Sam's Club and have them printed so I could continue with my scrapbook. The CD didn't read at Sam's Club, so we went to Wal-Mart to see if it would read there and that didn't work either! We'll try another CD tomorrow because I would like to have these pictures for Friday. Then we watched Starksy and Hutch, which none of us had seen before, although we did walk past the premiere to it in London when they were over visiting me! It was a good movie.

Thursday - I slept in and then me and my mom went to Hollywood Video to rent my movie and some other fun ones too and we went to Sam's Club again, still not working! Then we burned a different CD from our friend Laurie's computer, but that didn't work either, so we went over to Target and had the pictures printed there. We had dinner and went back to Target to get the pictures. That night I went with my mom and we played Bunco (a dice game) with the neighbor ladies which was fun becasue most of them have not spoken with me in quite a while and wanted to know about school and my time overseas this spring.

Friday - I got up ridiculusly early and went to coffee with my dad and his friend Gordy. I don't know what possessed me to do this, but I went and got caffinated for the day. Then my mom and I headed to her college friend Kathy's house because she is a Creative Memories consultant and lets us come over and use her stuff to scrapbook. I was able to finish up and tie all loose ends on pages that were related to Norway and France. I actually had a lot of France left to do, so that was most of my dad. We had lunch at Ruby Tuesdays because my mom really likes their salad bar. When we got home we had a light dinner and then watch another movie that we had rented call I'll Be There and it's about a Welsh girl and her mother and the girl's quest to find and befriend her Scottish Rock God father that doesn't know about her. I really liked it. After that I watch High Noon again.

Saturday - When I got up I wrote the review for High Noon, we had lunch, and then we went shopping. We went to JC Penny because I needed jeans desperatly because I had destroyed second to last pair in Rockford and my last pair I couldn't breath in if I sat down. We also went to Cub and got me stocked up on food, yeah! I stayed in, wathced TV, and put old pictures into the album.

Sunday - I worked at Canterbury for the first time since school started and had a decent day. After that I went to McDonald's to do an observational assignment for anthropology class. My friend Rachel from school met me there. We went back to my house and watch David on TV for the last time, he didn't get the job and the guy who did was a total ass! I know I talked to Kristen, David's sister and my best friend, on the way to the movies that night! Rachel and I went and saw Raise Your Voice with Hillary Duff and Oliver James, cute movie! Then I visited Rachel's kitten, Treble, and went home. I typed up my paper for the McDonald's assignment and went to bed. I had decided not to go back to school tonight because the conditions were bad and I didn't really need to be there until 1 tomorrow afternoon.
