Tonight was Annette's going away party. It's sad that she's going to be leaving, but she has to go home sometime. I gave her a michigan sand castle, a burnt goodbye-CD, and a 2 page letter. She's one of the few people that I actually remember meeting. She's always been a lot of fun to talk to. It was fun tonight, and I will miss her. Being a senior is going to be weird next year!!

Unrestricted. I can finally (legally) drive past midnight without the threat of having my license taken away. The only problem is, I have no where to go. I'm going to rot away in my house if something doesn't save me. I've already wasted so much of the summer and I don't want to waste any more. I want to go to Warped Tour this year. Anyone want to go with me? Tickets are $30.00 and the show's on Aug. 3rd.

I cannot remember the specifics, but this morning I had a dream, and in that dream were the exchange students from last year, Insa and Susan. The dream itself was weird enough because I haven't thought about either of them practically since graduation last year. Out of the blue I guess. But then I got an e-mail from Insa today telling me that she was coming back to Muskegon in a few weeks. And I know my dream took place in Muskegon...on the beach, I think. I'm not saying my dream is going to come true, or that it even means anything, or that I'm a psychic...I just thought it was a weird coincidence.

I remember the time I was sitting next to that girl on the bus and she asked when my birthday was. "September 30th," I replied. "REALLY? What year?" "1985." "NO WAY! THAT'S MY BIRTHDAY! This is freaky. It's DESTINY" I was a little scared at that point...ah, memories.
Anyways, tonight I had a bon fire in my backyard. Melissa, Debbie, and Andre showed up. It was fun.

I've been sleeping a lot since I got back. Today I helped my dad powerwash the deck and the house and reinstall the sliding door stuff. I completely forgot about cosmic bowling tonight, and I wanted to do that. My Capri shirt got ruined in the wash; I liked that shirt for the whole DAY that I got to wear it. Summer reading doesn't sound too bad. Gotta start that this week. On monday I gotta make a dentist appt. and call back on my perkins application. I need a job.

Yeah, the site-seeing was great and I learned a lot of european history, but the best parts of the trip were going to an Italian dance club and having a real talk with an old friend. Nothing could've topped those. I still can't pronounce (or spell) the Champs d'lazon, that famous parisan street. The cut on my toe reminds me that I was in Italy. ...I want to get my pictures back.
Personal advice: distance might be good at times likes these. the world is bigger than I thought it was. And....
Now I'm a snob.

After more than 14 hours of travel and staying up for 24 hours, I'm finally home from Europe. I think in some ways I have changed. I've realized: that their is a whole world out there; that things like the internet and tv are unimportant; that I'm insignificant right now; that I'm unsure if I want to go to school in a big city; that I didn't miss my family. At times, I got so much into the touring routine that I felt like I could keep on doing it. When I walked in my house, everything seemed estranged from myself. True, the floors were cleaner and my mother put up new curtains - not to mention the four spiders and their respective cobwebs that were inhibiting my room - but I'm sure I will readjust. I think I have learned a lot from going on this trip but my best memories involve the people that I shared it with...like the time the hotel locked me and someone else in the garden unknowingly.

So I open my side door and outside of my house are Jami, Jill, and Andre. Quite a surprise! The water at the beach was FREEZING, and the merry-go-round made me sick, but the pizza at Spanky's was good and now I have a school directory. Now I'm starting to feel a little overwhelmed. I still gotta get some listening music onto minidisc. I gotta sign all my traveller's checks and I gotta make a list of everyone's address. And I gotta wash my bathing suit. See you all in 12 days!

Oh yeah...report cards today! I'm happy. The only exams I didn't get A's in were Gov't (A -) and PDM (B). As for semester grades, all A's except an A - in PDM. Overall, my GPA is 3.967 I think. Not bad. Factor out stupid classes like CAREERS and it might actually be higher than that. yeah, I'm a nerd.

Yeah, Scott..good idea not to get any sleep until the flight. That time difference is gonna mess me up!! I'm finally excited - really EXCITED - about the Europe trip. My only concern is that I'm going to either be under-prepared or over-prepared. Oh well, life's a learning experience. I'll have to take notes for the next time I travel abroad ; )

Okay...it's funny, I'm begining to stress over the Europe trip. I'm really not as prepared (mostly mentally) as I wish I was. Andre let me borrow some luggage...I think it'll fit everything, but I'll figure that out tomorrow. Bruce Almighty is a pretty good movie. I need SLEEP! Oh yeah, I got my service hours done today!

I stare at girls' chest too much and tonight I got caught, lol.
My dad made a calendar for the summer. I need to see what he wrote down!
I'm gonna try to get a job when I get back from Europe. Perkins might be hiring.
Almost done with my service hours!

I like this song, don't know why. Maybe this is the one song that I'll bring to Europe and listen to over and over again until I get sick of it! "Could you find it in your heart to make this go away and let me rest in pieces?"
My back hurts, but at least we won our soccer game 3-1. The team will move onto the finals/semi-finals, but I'll be leaving for Europe (somehow, I don't think the team will be very disappointed).
I still gotta find powder detergent boxes for europe.
Matchbox 20 sounds more commercialized than ever, but I still like it. Jewel looks like a has-been sell-out.
