Intrinsically Interesting

I just read for hours about people I love, and others that I don't even know! I could read blogs for hours!! It was a book that I couldn't put down, "Life". I've decided my favorite genre is colloquial, written as if it were a conversation or a story telling. It is so enlightening for me to read about women who are having life happen to them. Of course, life is happening to me too! :D (As you can see I barely write about it though)

I went on a blind date this past weekend. I had resolved to have a great time, and help my date have a great time too. My roommate had told me that once she went on a blind date and when she opened the door she could see sinking disappointment on her date's face. That made me so mad that I made sure I gave my date a glowing smile when I opened the door. No one! and I repeat no one deserves that to ever happen to them. We had a great time! I recommend this to anyone stretching for an idea: he is a aspiring photographer so we went up into the mountains and he showed me how to take pictures of nature. We found some great spots up the canyon. Despite not being able to feel our toes after a while it was so fun to hike around and be outside.

The countdown on my blog here is officially over! Cameron came home December 29th. He brought so many presents from Brazil that it doubled what was under our Christmas tree. We definately saved the Christmas tradition of presents until he was home. I love having my brother 4 blocks away! I love that he calls me up just to talk, or to take me out to frozen yogurt. It is so great to have my best friend back home again. Although it will take some time to learn to communicate well again. I am learning to know a whole new person, and I hope he too sees change in who I am becoming.

I think I'll list some of the things that I have learned in the last couple years that he has been gone:

-how to put on red lipstick
-that I can stay up all night long
-visiting teaching brings miracles into my life
-there is nothing good on television except the Cosby show at 3AM
-I can't put down personal finance books
-singing, dancing, being with people, and excercise make me truly happy
-learned how to feed 150 people at a time [with lots of help :D]
-dying your hairs blond doesn't change anything.
-I CAN live without cooking with onions and garlic in my apartment![roommate with allergies]
-Eyelash extensions aren't very comfortable.
-I'm not as independant as I thought.

More next time folks! xo Anna
