Day 5

A thank you letter to someone who has changed your life.

Dear Meredith Grace,
I hope you know how much I value and appreciate your friendship. You're my best friend and I love you so much! You've shown me what it really means to be a true best friend and that means so much to me. I know I can talk to you about anything that's going on in my life and you'll be understanding while also giving me that blunt, to the point, advice that I love so much. I hope you know you can talk to me about anything too! We've been through so much together and I can't imagine having a stronger bond. We've gotten through high school drama, lying boys, dumb decisions, senior prom, no graduation, disolving friendships, stupid girls, and so much more together. You've seen me at my highest and my lowest and I know I can always count on you no matter what. Without you I wouldn't know what it's like to have someone close around who looks out for you and not just themselves, I'll always be so grateful for that.

Love,
Catherine Christine

Welcome back Monday

This weekend went way too fast and it was quite the interesting one! Friday I hung out with Meredith and got dinner with her parents at Cebolla's. It was delicious. Then I went and met up with boyfriend to hang out with a few friends.

Saturday I had to take my car in to the dealer for an oil change at 9am, aka way too early on a Saturday for me to be out and about.  When I got home I was surprised to see my rommate packing nearly everything in our kitchen up to move. She had previously told me she was moving in with another girl who wanted to start her lease in May rather than wait until our lease is up in July, but she never told me when exactly she was moving or what she was taking. So, after she left I found that I no longer have a toaster, pots/pans, cookie sheets, dishes, or a tv, plus a few other things. I was livid. I wouldn't have been mad had she told me what she was taking with her, especially since before she had said she was leaving some things at our place. So now I have to spend money I don't have on things I didn't think I would have to worry about buying until I move to Muncie. Luckily I already had a tv and some dishes waiting at my mom's so I went ahead and got those. This is one of the exact reasons I don'twant a rommate for next year. My overall experience with my current roommate has been AWFUL and Saturday just put me over the top and ruined a good portion of my day. Boyfriend took me out to lunch because he knew I was having a bad day and we went to a comic book store so he could browse around. When we got back to my place I ended up taking a 2 hour nap and thankfully woke up feeling much better. That night Meredith came over and we did some browsing at a few stores before deciding to pick Joe up and go to Casa's for dinner. Then we went back to my place and  watched tv and after Mere left the boy and I cuddled and watched a movie.

Sunday I layed in bed most of the day catching up on Glee and doing homework. Then Joe came over and we went to my cousins 11th birthday party and then his mom's for dinner. I spent the rest of the night studying for my finals this week.

I'm so excited that this is my last week of school for the year and my last week of school at IPFW. I have finals that I have to go to campus for today, tomorrow, and Wednesday, and my other two finals have to be taken online by Sunday night. It's been a long, crazy, semester so I'm glad to see it end.

Let the countdowns begin!

4 days until Meredith Grace (should be) comes home!

5 days until Chicago!

7 days until Amy Marie comes home!

10 days until Christmas Eve/Christmas!

17 days until New Years Eve/2010!

I wanna make a bunt cake too!

I was really feeling very motivated this morning when I woke up, but then I ended up just sitting around watching American Pie movies all afternoon.
Although I do feel rather accomplished having seen American Pie, American Pie 2, and American Wedding in order back to back so now they all make more sense.

My mom bought a Canon EOS 50D today and I have no idea why.
It's such a nice camera it's ridiculous.
The pictures it takes are amazing, I'm going to snatch it for myself.
Really, what does she need it for?
The last time I checked she wasn't taking steps toward becoming a photographer.
I wish I still really had a desire to go out and shoot, thanks Ellie Bogue and the IPFW photography department, I hate you.

That reminds me that tonight at Asakusa with Alyssa and Meredith we saw Mrs. Croy and it was sufficiently awkward.
She was all like "heyyyyyyyyyy!" and we were all like "hiiiiii!" and then she just stared at us and said "oh you all are very quiet, that's weird, you're never ever quiet, what's wrong huh? why aren't you talkative??" and then we were all like "uhhhhhh" and she was giving us a blank stare and then I laughed, which made the situation even more awkward.
It was great.

I love when me, Mere, and Al decide to bake.
I suck at cooking, but it always makes for a good time.

I haven't heard from Craig at all today.
That makes it two days now.
I hate it, I didn't do anything.
I wish he could figure things out and be able to talk to me at the same time.

I'm watching Now and Then.
It's such a good movie, so I probably won't go to bed until after 4.
Oh well!
