i'm busy these days... that's my excuse for my absence.

last time i posted was before the 4th . . . wow. so that party was fun, and i think it was the most drunk i've seen a lot of my friends. we had burgers and fireworks and silliness.

last week i was on my family vacation. we took the train to ashland, oregon for the Shakespeare Festival. it was pretty fun. i saw five plays: Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner; Comedy of Errors; Othello; A Midsummer's Night's Dream; and The Clay Cart. the acting was so fantastic, and a lot of the plays were in different settings than the original play, and it was pulled off really well.
we also went on a jet boat down the Rouge River where the driver tries to drench you by spinning around in the water (etc.), which was what we wanted since it was sooo hot!
we also went on a tour of the Harry & David factory and spent way too much money on goodies!
so it was pretty fun besides the issue of being with my family for a week without any of us getting much personal space. so moodiness happened, but it was okay.
the train was okay except for the fact that we had delays going to and from ashland which were excruciatingly long.

i got back and started my internship on tuesday. it's only for 15 hours a week, so i work 3 five-hour days (tues., wed., thurs.). i think it went really well, and i seemed to impress the people there so far which makes me feel more confident.

i'm trying to get a job at a smoothie shop in my small town right now. i need a summer job before i move out. i'm so friggen broke!

last night i went to see The Dark Knight midnight showing (of course!). i was pretty impressed with a lot of things (heath, attention to detail, effects, etc.), but i think that the original joker flick will always be closer to my heart since i grew up with it and jack nicholson did an amazing job back then. plus, tim burton created a better mood for Gotham, hands down.

one of my close friends is turning 21 today, so tonight i'm going...
