no, nothing spectacularly cool happened to my yesterday or anything. i just enjoy the simple things, but since i enjoy them so much, they really aren't simple at all to me. does that make sense? i guess what i'm trying to say is without all those simple things, my life would be pretty darn empty.
i was again woken up by katie being her cute self and practically busting an organ as she body slams me. after recovering i accompanied my mom to drop katie off at preschool. from there my day just kept getting better and better, as i hopped in the car and made my way out to Ontario to see august! and let me tell you, it was SO GOOD to see her. i was so glad to meet all her new friends and roommates and see where she is going to school. i got to see the yearbook finally and we enjoyed just being able to talk and hang out for a while. we have decided that as our graduation present from college in four years we want to take a road trip across country to the south, making fun stops along the way and just diving into experience. we better start saving up :)
august was going on a retreat with Providence up to the mountains, so we said our goodbyes and i got back in the car to make my drive home. but, on my way home i knew i was going to pass Whittier and so earlier i had talked to justin about hanging out. he gave me a call before his soccer practice started and told me to come pick him up but that he wouldn't be done until 6:00. so, i had about an hour and a half to kill. as i was driving up the little residential street behind the Whittier college campus, i came across this little park. so, i decided to get out and sit there for a while, just to relax, have some alone time and people watch. it was quite lovely. around 5:30 i got back in the car and drove the rest of the way up the hill to the soccer field and watched his practice for a bit.
when he was done, he had ridden his bike there because he is now living in a house with some people off campus. so, i had to follow him in my car on his bike back to his house. it was interesting...
the rest of the evening was spent by just hanging out at my house. we went in the jacuzzi, where we had a deep conversation that started with looking at the stars and then somehow got into philosophy and then issues that i won't even begin to talk about while typing.
since i have been getting mass amounts of sleep in college (and no i'm not being sarcastic) i fell into bed, exhausted, at around 1:30, only to be woken up at 6:15 by justin who needed help making eggs (he couldn't turn on the stove). why was he up at 6:15, you ask. he had a friend coming to pick him up so they could drive back to Whittier for their 7:30 soccer game.
then i got to have lunch with my grandma today, so it was good to see her.
well, i head back up to Westmont tomorrow, but it's been a great weekend at home. :)
