Summertime

So, its been awhile since my last post and I actually have people who tell me they read this!!  Yay, i have fans!!!  Or, ya know, really bored friends =).  Anyhoo, I can't believe its July already.  Its been a busy month so far.  I've had Sarah's wedding, NKOTBSB concert, and in about 51 hours I'll be watching the final Harry Potter!  Yes, I'm a nerd, leave me alone.

So, Sarah's wedding was absolutely lovely.  It was totally unique to them and I think my favorite part was the fan/program/puzzle we got before the ceremony started.  Mine had a crossword puzzle on the back of the program, Daniel's had a word search, the person next to me had a maze, and someone said there was a mad lib floating around.  So awesome.  Sarah, of course, looked gorgeous, and Brian didn't look to bad himself =).

Me and Daniel

I had a lot of fun at the wedding.  The Mystery Project (photo booth) was totally amazing and I just wish I had taken more pictures in it, or in general really.  I danced with a sexy British man, and I didn't even get any pictures with him!  Major bummer. (sexy British man knows who he is). 

Anyhoo, kinda sad tho cuz that was the last night of hanging out with Daniel, cuz he moved the next day.  He only moved to Long Beach, but the majority of the time, when we hang out, its last minute after work, and that's kinda hard to do with more distance.  He's my movie buddy, so for the second time in my life, I'm on the lookout for a new movie buddy!  (Sorry Daniel!  I love you!!!)

Wednesday was the NKOTBSB concert, and I have to admit, I was probably more excited than my cousin.  (The tickets were a 16th birthday present for my cousin, who was amazing enough to remember Backstreet Boys were my absolute favorite back in the day.)  They seriously put on an amazing show.  I saw them last summer the the Gibson Amphitheater and it was a good show, but I remember thinking the dancing was a bit lacking, probably due to their slightly older ages.  Well, a lot changed this year, they were FANTASTIC!!!  Great dancing, great singing, great costumes, great lighting....just an amazing show.  And I was proud of myself for knowing most of the NKOTB songs, cuz I honestly don't remember listening to them much when I was younger.  I did have a Jordan Knight Barbie doll (rat tail and everything) but that's different than listening to the music. Funny fact, they had converted the boys bathrooms into girls' bathrooms, presumably because there would be so many more girls, and they ended up with one boys' bathroom on the floor we were on.  How funny is that?  I've never heard of venues doing things like that! 


Thank you again Cousin!!!  I seriously had an amazing time, and I hope you enjoyed it even slightly as much as I did!

This week is the Harry Potter finale.  Its funny, I was never a huge fan before, but from the 4th movie on I can't seem to get enough of the series!  The Goblet of Fire was my first midnight showing ever, and I with with Jen, her then-boyfriend, and his best friend in Santa Barbara and we had a blast!  Since then, I've gone to all of them and there's something about a midnight showing you can't get with any other time.  Maybe its the camaraderie of it all, being around so many other nerds?  (Lol).  Seven weeks ago I decided to try to re-read the whole series (nerd, again, I know) and I honestly didn't think it would be enough time, but I started the Deathly Hallows on Friday and am on page 437 out of 759 so I should be fine.  Kinda proud of myself for that one actually.  =)  Even more excited cuz Jen is gonna go with me to this one!!!!   Yay for Harry Potter!! 

Last picture of the night, this one doesn't have anything at all to do with anything in this post, but I made calendars for a couple friends for Christmas, so I made myself one and this pic is the one for July, so it just seemed appropriate.  Its from October, Tricia, Drea, and I went to Knott's Scary Farm, and as you can see, this was a potty break.... Have a good week everyone!
