the mirrored window: June 2005

we're O.C. obsessed

getting ready for our O.C. marathon

fun times with the O.C.- courtesy of my wonderful boyfriend... who i haven't talked to in 2 days. hmm.

Beth's birthday! (she forced me to take these... happy to oblige)

you mean i don't have to clean on my birthday?! yesssss

woah, where's David when you need a gift unwrapper, eh?

let her play you a tune... because it's her birthday, and you have to enjoy it.

scenes from the mall... and beyond

outside the mall... on the big ball. fun times.

i loved this freakin hat... it was a guy hat... that was probably why it fit my head. oh well, it's kick ass.

i don't know why we're posing in Hot Topic, either... but we pretty much took up residence in there.

VOTE FOR PEDRO

she's watching you.

she sings for a living. ...yea, she's poor. (just kidding Elora!)

16 candles!

Happy Birthday to me!!! ...but not only is it my birthday- but my blog's, too! how nifty, haha (oh and Beth's doggie's, too!) I'm writing this in bed and posting tomorrow because I didn't have time today!

oh I had the most wonderful, glamorous 16th brithday ever! it was great. We flew to NYC to go to Tiffany's, where I picked out the most beautiful diamond bracelet you have ever seen... then i met Audrey Hepburn (reincarnated) and she complimented me on my sunglasses!

...okay, so maybe that didn't happen. maybe I just stayed home and cleaned and organized my room all day... but you can believe what you want.

I would be going to get my permit tomorrow but I've barely glanced at the stupid book and dad won't take me until i read the wholeee thing. we're going to Louisville tomorrow by like 8 (pm) because Forrest is flying in and we have to pick him up. hopefully we won't have to take the truck and trailor... that would be GHETTO! haha but yea... hopefully Forrest is nice or I'm kicking his ass Out. (not really) I'll keep ya informed.

Beth and Elora and David and Kaleb and some more of the crew are leaving for camp tomorrow morning! with Hank being in Myrtle Beach I am going to be ALL ALONE! but that's okay- because Saturday night we're throwing down at my house- bonfire time! heck yea. I'm inviting a lot of ppl... (and their moms) so hopefully I'll get a good turnout. Forrest will get to meet everyone.

Hank hasn't called me all day. I mean, I know he's on vacation, but it's my birthday! the only reason I'm still awake right now is cause I'm waiting on him to call (it's 12:30 now). apparently he doesn't care! hmmm... I would be pissed, but I don't have enough energy. (*note- he called... at 1:04- i was going to turn off my phone at 1, but i was reading the permit book and didn't check... lucky him! haha)

For my birthday my brother got me the Sarah McLachlan cd Afterglow, and my 'rents got me a jewelry box from PB and dance stuff! mom ordered me some stuff from Delia's, too- but it hasn't come in yet! Beth got me a Weezer tee and Marilyn Monroe pin on Friday when we went shopping. and Hank gave me the 1st season of the O.C. (yay!) and victora secret perfume stuff- it smells realllyy good. my Aunt sent me $10, too... oh and I got myself 2 cds- the Thrills and Ugly Casanova. ...and how could i forget about my diamond bracelet?! heh

my brother hugged me today. i was shocked ... but happy. maybe he'll start talking to me and being nice to me again (knock on wood). i would be sooo happy. i miss him.

"tell me something i don't know
because these streets aren't paved with gold
but vanity won't release me."
the Thrills.

I'M 16!!! rock out.

(new pics coming soon!)

... then I knew that everything good and bad left an emptiness when it stopped. (A Moveable Feast - Hemingway)

my summer has been completely boring... but lately it's been better! atleast a little bit. :) 4 DAYS UNTIL MY BIRTHDAY! heck yes. i went to beffy's for a couple of days last week (check out the pictures) and we had some fun times. Kayla came over and we dyed her hair blackkk! it was great. i love it! saturday i went to help NeNe out at the ice cream social thing, but i couldn't stay long cause i ended up going with Hank to the KRT thing and Rus wanted to leave like a half hour early! lol their uncle (i can't remember his name, i feel bad cause i can't... but i really can't! lol he's young, tho) flew in from LA that day and he went, too. they were being so retarded on the way home that night! i took them on the sunrise road (since it's a shortcut from Falmouth, where the KRT thing was) and they we were like freaking out. ah it was so funny! the windows were fogging up and they thought we were going to die! Rus was like, 'everyone- quit breathing!' and their uncle was like why do i feel like i'm in a scary movie? and so Rus tried to wash the windows and then the windshield cleaner fluid light came on and it was beeping and they were like, is that a bomb? and then he hit a moth and their uncle was like you just killed that moth! what next?! and Rus was like probably a little girl... it was great. then we were like at my house and Rus was like if you don't hear from us we're probably on the side of the road... dead... not to be found for a long time. luckily Hank knows where he's going and they didn't get lost on the way home! lol but anyways that was more fun than i thought it was going to be. i feel bad for not staying at the ice cream social longer, though.

i got my passport the other day! yes! i was afraid i wasn't going to get it cause the ppl in Cynthiana messed it up, but it's all good! i can't believe i'm actually going to Ireland. i've never ever flown before, so i'm going to be like peeing my pants! lol no, i'm sure dad and rubie will keep me amused! haha ahhhh i'm excited, lol. a little bit scared, tho... what if nobody likes me over there? i'm going to be the outcast! haha

tomorrow i'm spending all day with Hank for my birthday (cause he's leaving saturday and won't be here for my actual birthday) but he won't tell me what we're doing! hmm... i'm excited!

friday i'm supposed to be going with Beffy to Lexington and then helping her clean the house for the ppl coming over on her birthday! (which is saturday) ahh i'm so excited about everything... it finally kind of feels like summer! lol i need to call her...

monday Forrest gets here, we have to pick him up from the airport in Louisville at like 8:30 at night! i hope he's nice and not like some really mean person, that would suck. he's staying with us for um... 12 days i think? next weekend i'm having a bonfire so he can meet some of my friends... i'm excited about that! :)

mom is yelling at me to get off of here! and i still have to send the bridesmaids a lil email... oh our dresses are in! i'm excited! it seems i'm excited about a lot lately, eh?

the last couple of days...

i'm learning to ride a motorcycle! :) i did alright... but i got a piece of crap sunburn. check it out- v

see! ...it's better now, though! :)

wow, i'm dating a dork... :) haha

fun times at Beffy's!

Beth has black hair! (Kayla dyed it the night before this- i was the cleaning lady! haha) oh- and she likes her Flonase. (this is the most attractive picture of her i've ever taken! haha)
