:: Mood: listless
WTF does listless mean? I like to pick very strange moods for myself...
Today my dad's old college roomate and his 4 kids met me and my dad at the track. It was fun. They are so nice. They have a 5 year old girl. 12 year old twin boys (who have major hotty potential lol) and a 16 (i think) year old boy. I've always thought he was really hot. He still is really hot...and he's nice...and not a womanizer/pothead. He doesn't look like a junior though. He looks our age. But thats okay beacuse I look younger than I am too. UGH I wish they lived closer or we saw them more. Why dont we have more guys like him in our grade/school??? Why? Why? I know all you girls feel my pain.
Me and my dad just went to the harness track. Hahaha its hilarious. Its really nice at night and stuff...but its not as exhilirating/big/popular/normal as the regular track...There are really seedy people there. Its so scary. The race purses are like only $700 haha. It's still beautiful though. (Harness is like the jockeys who sit in the little carts and the horses are way smaller)
It really pisses me off that my summer is going so well. My summers usually suck. Now I just so CAN wait to go back to school. Im totally dreading it. Soccer is gonna suck. But im glad im playing b.c. a lot of my gal pals are playing...Id miss out on a lot. But that still doesnt take away from the fact that it sucks.
And it gets closer each day......
I just have to live for the moment...focus on each day.
Watching Selena
Waiting for the Yankee game
Hope everyone is having a great vacation!
*g*a*b*i* (dont mind me im working on new siggys)

So I got to Saratoga Friday. It's been an awesome weekend with my cuzzies. On Friday we just hung out, had dinner. Then we went to town. My cousins are usually such party animals but they came home fairly early. I dont understand how people can hold their alcohol like my they do. Its unbelieavable to me. Obviously they are older, but theyre also 1/2 Irish, im not. So I think that has something to do with it lol. I will never be like that. I have one teeny glass of champagne and Im like seeing things.
Anyway, Sat. we went to the track. I love the track. Then we went JET SKIING...It was awesome, I didn't get to drive but I might be able to tomorrow. Yesterday we went to the track casually. Dammmmn, if anyone is ever broke, trust me, go bet on a horse it pays well!
Sometimes we go to the track fancy, like in a box and all dressed up. But we can also just go casual and wear what we want and eat regular stuff. I like both. It depends on my mood. Today we also went to the barn, and fed my dads horses. It was wonderful. lol.
Yesterday one of my cousins left, one more is left. Tonite were going to the drive in ...yeah baby.
My summer is going really well...surprisingly. I dont have the best luck with summers. I just still really miss everyone. But the summer is more than half way there so ill be seeing them soon soon soon! Im just totally dreading school and soccer. UGH UGH UGH...
Im sorry this was another long post...I hate long posts...They suck. But I had a lot to say. It makes me happy when im having fun somewhere.
ahhhh I just found some live savers gummies in my bag yes yes yes these babys are the best...i gg enjoy them

There's nothing much to say. I babysat this morning, I'm babysitting this afternoon. I am getting paid tomorrow. YES!
I really really am missing my friends BADLY. Yesterday I wrote 3 of them a joint letter and wrote out every single thing I missed about being with them lol.
In the past years I've always found best friends that I thought would last, but of course nature takes its course, people change, ive been hurt, theyve been hurt. It sucks but its natural. Theres only a couple girls who from day 1 ive been close to and still am. But this year I think I really found my nitch. Theres a few girls who I dont think I could live without (and im having to do that this summer, but theres a couple i dont habe to do that with phew) Thats never happened to me before. I usually like being away from my friends for a couple months, but nope, not this time.
I think the following seperates friends and best friends from true sisters:
1) It's hard to live without them
2) You can 100% be yourself around them, and you can have the weirdest or nastiest habits or questions and not be embarassed to share it.**very important**
3) You never have to lie to them, even the smallest whitest lie. You can be honest, cos you know they'll understand and vice versa (see 6)
4) When you're with them you dont wanna leave
5) They're nice and thoughtful
6) They never lie to you or betray you and never have before
7) You dont need to keep reminding them that they are your bff, they already know. Vice Versa. And they don't pressure you to answer things you dont want to. They respect privacy.
8) They know when something is wrong. V V
9) You've never laughed harder than when you're with them
10)*I really like this one: Even when there is silence its never awkward ever. Its never like "Uh wat do u wanna do" "uh i dont know" you know what i mean? Everything is always 100% comfortable
This is my criteria and i have a few that totally fit the description and i think that the girls im thinking off will be my friends forever. Dont get me wrong i love to make new friends but i also like to have a group i can always count on for the 10 criteria.
Well ony a month or so left! I cannot wait!
More later*Gabrielle

Money and Bags
So today I babysat for 5 hours. She wouldn't fuckin let me leave. ahhhh, it was miserable. But at least this means i get paid a lot. I made a lot of cash last week babysitting and working at my dads office.
Hopefully this week will be just as successful. There's this awesome coach bag im dying for. I have enough money saved up from since the day i was born, I could probably have bought 100 of them by now, but I really like to save my money especially since i do absolutely nothing to get it usually. Most of it is from things like Confirmation, rich family members, etc... but there's something about earning your money by hard work that makes you want to spend it. (i especially feel that way since ive never worked before in my life) So im using all my "work" money for the bag, ahh i cant wait. im such a freakin bag junkie. i have like an illness. my ********* are "coach, burb, and louis" lol eg,jb,kp,sz
Going to get a pedi.
Still miss my friends terribly.
Summer is awesome though.
Cant wait for Friday.
Everyone needs to go see Seabiscuit this weekend.
peace&love*gabrielle

AHHH just got a letter from Joanna. Her visiting day is TOMORROW!!! She's gonna call me, I am soooo excited...I pray to God that I do not miss her call. I miss her and my other gal pals so much it is insane. I can't wait til we meet again.
I saw Charlies Angels 2 the other nite with Brig. It was really good. Some people hated it. I thought it was hot.
And only another week til i see my cousins and go to SARATOGA. And only another DAY til I get to speak to one of my bestest friends ever who I havent seen in--it seems like forever.
Very anxious and excited

Road Rules--Great season..Donell u suck!
Surf Girls--Groovy show

My Summer (mostly reading)
Well let me just start off by saying, besides the fact that it has been fabulous, it has also been extremely productive.
Ever since my fight with the parentals I have been productive to the point where I think I'm gonna be sick. lol, not that bad but bad. I do A CRAP LOAD of chores.
I finished both, read em' BOTH summer reading books (okay, so I picked the two shortest ones but hey...I'm done. Are you? My point exactly :) They were two of the most incredible life-changing books I have ever read. I honestly never thought a book could move me that much. Usually when I pick up a book I have to read, I ache when I have to read. But this time I seriously ached when I wasn't reading them. Tuesdays with Morrie was so sweet. I'm a sucker for cute little "viejitos" (as my family calls them) so you can imagine how I was with this book. It was so sad, but happy. I cried "lightly" at the end. I was at the beach it was so embarassing. I finished it in about 3 days (please no comments about how you read it in 10 minutes... I don't give a shit)
I didn't think I could be more touched until I started reading my second book, A Chid Called It. This one I could hardly put down, but I fell alseep and finished it in 2 nights (again, no comments please) Oh my God, I was bawling (not a light bawl but like hyperventilating lol) by the end of the first chapter. It really gives you a priority and reality check. It made me sick to my stomach that someone would treat their own son like that. I was so disturbed and emotionally "active" by it. It was so amazing. Both were true stories which makes it 100 X worse. If you haven't read them DO IT! Don't waste your time reading 1000 page books. Though they were easy, I can honestly say they changed the way I look at the world. And for ME to say that...The anti-book person, the reading is devil believer, is obviously a big deal. Along with these awesome books contributing to my summer I've been doing some other things
...lol you never would have imagined I left my room with all the ushing and gushing I made about reading. lol anyway....
I went to Miami last week for 5 days. fun fun fun!!! This week and next week I am babysitting (UGH...Just think about the cash Gabi just think about the cash) And taking tennis lessons (just 4 days, one hour)
Then I am off to Saratoga. After Miami this is my favorite place to go (excluding somewhere like Fiji or Hawaii or Paris...but you know what I mean) We mainly go for my pop's horses (racing ones...Everyone better go see Seabiscuit! lol) So that is a blast. Going to the track all dressed up makes me feel like I'm from the 1900's lol. It's so awesome, esp. when we win hehehe. It's also a great town. The town itself is really cool. There's really good food and places to go. And dadadada...There's a drive-in movie theatre. Those of you lucky enough to have gone to Saratoga with me know how awesome that is lol. I also go jet-skiing which is soooooo great. Plus our town-house complex has a pool so that is always fun :) But we're looking to buy a house. And the first weekend that we go my 2 cousins are coming from Miami to stay with us!! I am sooo excited. They totally rock. I look up to my cousins so much. Too bad the third can't come :( SO that is something to look forward to.
After Saratoga I go to bball camp (only for 3 days cos then I am going to MIAMI!) lol again for 10 days...My cousin I havent seen forever will be there so we have to go! Then home then SOCCER!!! YAY not.
OKAY holy crap I have written a lot I must be so bored lol.

PHEWOWOWOW! I dont know what exanimate means but it means whatever mood im in right now...Im so happy...Im in my favorite place Miami, Florida...Its just so beautiful here at my aunts house and family is the best ever...My summer has been going great...good vacation and ive even been productive. I finished one summer reading book already :) something i never thought id do.
i miss everyone but its kinda nice! i better get some letters when i get home...(BTW...I lost Erica and Laurens camp address if anyone knows it email me please...thanks a bunch)
I get back this friday...then we come back in august :) just cant get enough!!! I have tennis lessons/babysitting for the next 2 weeks...then Saratoga!!! then bball camp then Miami** then SOCCER whoopeee!!!
UGH I cant believe i got talked into playing...My parents and i had this HUGE ENORMOUS MOMBO JOMBO FIGHT, not just about being like out too late or wanting something materialistic... it was really bad...it was very disturbing so this (soccer) is one of the many outcomes of the fight. The outcome turned out to be much better than i thought during the actually fiasco...as much as i cant stand my parents a lot of the time i know they know whats good for me and what happened will really be good for me for one thing its helped me as a person... ...
I feel like this summer has helped me to see who i am, since im not constantly under the influence of my friends, im just myself which is nice because I know what I have to improve and i feel like this summer will really help me grow on the inside to be a better person...theres so many things that need to be changed...well not SO many but a few...and i have also seen my good qualities and i will try to enforce those...i know this is all cheesy but its true...im having an inside makeover! It feels really good to metaphorically be "cleaning out my closet" of all this crap ive kept inside and used it negatively to hurt people.
not to mention that ive grown like an inch and a half already, ( plus a major tan...its sweltering down here :) Anyway:
im taller than my aunt, a tiny bit taller than my (23 year old) cousin, and just as tall as my grandparents hehe! Movin on up!!! :)
Well to those reading this have an AWESOME rest of summer...dont worry about report cards!!! (Mine stayed exactly the same as last quarter :) ENJOY THE SUN!!! BE HAPPY DONT WORRY...

okay, so today is my final day in ny, and tomorrow, bright and early we're leaving for las vegas. im sooooo excited! lets just hope that when we come home at the end of this vacation, we havent scratched eachother's eyes out. i knew from the second i heard about this vacation that it wasnt going to be a good idea. 4 WHOLE weeks with my parents 24 hours a day 7 days a week, is just not going to be smooth sailing....and thats for sure. oooooo god, this should be an interesting vacation.....
on the flip side of things, on friday night my aunt slept over, and on saturday morning i went to bid my steffi a farewell at the bus. some people asked me if i was going to cry and i said no, thats stupid, ill see her in 2 months anyway, and ill speak to her once in a while along with getting multiple letters...i hope. lol. i actually found myself fighting back tears, which was weird. im really gunna miss her a lot. shes my other half, so ya know, it was a sad thing. she seemed happy to get out of this god foresaken place with her godforesaken parents in it, which was great for her, but for me, i have no escape. im stuck with mine for the rest of july....oooooo boy. my aunt, her bf and my mom and dad went out to dinner at pastinas afterwards, it was really yummy. anyway, lunch is ready so im gunna go. write to me at my home address, and post me a comment if u want my cell phone number so we can keep in touch.

"...and now we're talkin 'bout a HeAtWaVe..."
The weather is total madness. one day its 60 degrees and buckets upon buckets of water r falling from the sky, and the next day, mr. sunshine in shining bright and happy and every minute the temperature raises a degree. there is nothing like waking up to 85 degree weather. SUMMER IS HERE!!
on sunday night my family and the glickmans went out for dinner at city limits, where i was practically falling asleep in my food. lol. then after that, i went back to their house. we hung out and talked and did girl stuff, including writing insults about eachother on her writeboard in spanish/latin. Estefana no comas nada, ella comes pollo y cuadernos. lmao! the nect morning, steffi jill and i went up to vermont to go to jills parents condo. it was so pretty and it was so weird seeing the trails cut out in the mountain without any snow on it. totally weird. so we went swimming in their pool, it was sooooo hot! 92 degrees on monday! then that night we went out for dinner at this seafood place, i ate chicken fingers and french fries, but it wasnt exactly sitting too well. I had a tummy ache :(. they gave me some tea (eww) and i felt better. (yay!) the next morning we slept till noon as usual, got up, ate some breakfast, and went swimming again. it reached 98 yesterday! we came home took showers and left for NY again. we hit rush hour traffic, which was soooo bad, and so it took us 4.5 hours to get home (uggh). I ate burger king for dinner. i watched some stuff on TV, nothing great. then i went to bed, woke up, and here i am right now! at 3 im goin swimming at steffis club, we're gunna get nice and tan! yay!! lol, about time i started working on my tan...
ill write later>>>>>>

So I played murderor with my 5 minus 1...SK is in Disney World...
Yesterday I hung out and had a BBQ w/ neighbors..It was yummy, my dad is such a good cook! :)
Then I watched the Yankee Game...HAHA suck that Met's fans...It's truly a hopeless cause...The Mets will never beat the Yanks...They are the ultimate best...So you might as well stop hoping and switch over to the light side...hehe I think im going Sunday for the mets/yanks at Yankee stadium...I am soooo excited!
My mom is okay for now, I think everything with us is a little less tense. I really like it this way!
Today I went to Scotts pool party...Me, Hilary, Elise, Stacey, and Kate were the only girls there...It was really fun though actually..I had a really good time...It really started to feel like summer...Pools, warm weather FINALLY...Then I came home, showered, put in this John Freida Highlight stuff and sat out.
Tonight I'm gonna do something with my gurls I think..I need to spend as much time as possible with them...I'm gonna miss them so incredibly much...
But I am so freakin excited about summer....Nothing on this planet makes me happier at the moment than the fact that i DONT have to go to school tomorrow, next day, next etc...I just can't stand summer reading ugh
BTW...Thursday night my parents were giving me a " surprise " we went to Cirque Du Soleil...It was sooooo cool and soooo fun..I can't believe I forgot to include that in my last post!
Well I gotta go play text twist, or watch TV, or lay outside or do WHATEVER THE HELL I WANT COS ITS SUMMER!!! YAYAYAYAYAY!!
Please write me...u know the address!!! I will miss you all madly !

'Welcome To The Adios Aaron Casino'
how is it even remotely possible that our grade was more social when we were 12 than we are now?? last night was aarons good bye party and i cannot even begin to explain what frustration it created. just to paint a picture... 1 large gym, 2 dj's, LOUD music, 60 kids (approximately 30 girls and 30 guys), a bunch of chairs and benches, 5 tables of food. to make this picture even more descriptive, imagine that gym being divided in half, the guys on one side in a circle of chairs/benches surrounding a table playing a HUGE game of cards, and the girls on the other. THEY OPENED THEIR OWN FRICKEN CASINO FOR CRYING OUT LOUD. not only is that rude to aaron (even though he was playing...uggh) no one danced at all, people were outside smoking, and the guys were playing "lets throw food across the room and see if greg can catch it in his mouth like a dog in a game of frisbee". they got such a kick out of that damn game, i wish i could understand what goes on in their little heads ::shakes head and sighs::. as usual, aaron was being really mean to me, which i seriously took to offense this time. that was the last time i was gunna see him until some time late next year. im always nice to him and all he can do is make faces at me and make fun of me. I was one of the only people who got him a present because i thought that we were good friends (i was obviously HORRIBLY mistaken) and he made fun of it by coming up to me and telling me that "it was a stupid present"...what the fuck?? i know he was kidding but still, its mean and im just soooo extreemely frustrated with our whole grade and aaron especially. i dont think ill ever understand guys. oh well. i could swear the only good part of the night was being dubbed a "sex kitten" by gabi and joanna...lol luv u guys...
so my doctors appointment was just fine, turns out that i dont need a tetnus for another 2 years, but i still came home with a bandaid on. It was charlie brown lol. tonight we're all going out with my moms side of the family for my aunts birthday. we're going to scaramella's...YUM! i think everyones coming over here tonight after we eat. should be a good time. i havent seen so many of my cousins in a long time! i miss everyone so much, ('cept for stacie....we'll see how it turns out with her there....hahaha should make for an interesting next entry. im gunna stop venting for now, ill write later.
lots and lots of rckstr luvvin
