nor cal!

this past weekend a bunch of us got to go up to san jose for our friend justin's graduation! it was so fun to meet his friends & family, and to hang out in a HOUSE. i love meeting new people. the Spencer's (who hosted the party) are from south africa. so amazing to talk with them.

and on sunday i got to see sam sam!!! who i hadn't seen since camp last year. so great. we went to san francisco for the day and had an awesome time. we saw seals, crazy people dressed in silver, drunk people on a boat, bakers baking bread at Boudins (and we ended up having lunch with a girl who worked there bc she wanted us to be able to use her 50% off discount!). it was a great day.

i would love to post pictures from this weekend, but alas, i forgot my camera.

Friends!

last night ryan, kathryn, kathleen, ben and I all hung out. yay. 

just an old picture of kathryn and i celebrating 6 months in California with patron on ice!! 

i keep thinking about swine flu.

so i started listening to npr, which is great because i feel like i know more about what's going on in the world. but since i've started listening to it, everyone is talking about swine flu. i think about it all the time. ha. also, i'm reading the book 'the plague' by albert camus. probably not the best choice in books at the moment.

happy birthday little brother.

it's april 23 and my brother spencer turns 22 today!! :)

LA is hot!

it was 100 degrees in Los Angeles on monday. ahhh. so hot. it has since cooled down, but oh man, this summer is gonna be crazy. good thing i live near the ocean.

what?

while i was jogging this morning, i saw two slugs.

6 months!!!
