Blahblahblah, another pretty boring day. Went out and applied a few new places today. Ive got to get a damn job!! If I'm ever going to be able to afford going down to Bogota, Ive got to get a job ASAP. My friend Aaron is letting me crash at his house in Champaign so I can try to get a job down there at a bar. Id make hella more cash and just commute every weekend or something. I could have the money to go to South America in no time!! You guys all just think positive thoughts ok? Hung out with Aaron, Johnny, Chad, Gus and Dave C. tonight at the brewhaus for a bit. It was a good time. I love those guys to death. They are always a blast. My friend Chris's wedding shower is tomorrow. CRAZY. It's like my other little brother is getting married I tell you! So, that should be interesting... Let's see, what else is going on in my little world. Lindz and Dave got a house! WOO HOO! They close on it the end of this month. Its very cute... those two are so damn grown up. I talked to Brandon again yesterday. He's still doing extremely well. His classes are going great. We worked out a bit of shit we needed to work out... we're getting really good at this whole honesty thing. Who woulda thought the honesty tactic could ever work for me and Brandon? But low and behold it is! It took like 5 minutes of talk and we were AOK again! I hope this talking things out like adults thing sticks. He went out drinking tonight with Pedro. I wish I was there. It sounds so great down there. Although, Brandon told me that when I come down there I cant wear any of my "hot boob shirts" and shouldnt even really talk to the locals since Im an American girl. Apparently they would jump my bones or something. Crazy, I cant imagine it. When a guy meets a girl for the first time there, he kisses her on the cheek. So I asked him, "so when I come down there Im gonna have all your guy friends kissing all up on me?" and he goes "yup!" Should be an interesting experience. I miss him something fierce. Im glad he's doing so well though. I knew he would. I told him he's so much stronger than me and would do really well in that situation. And he is. I cant think about being away from my friends. I depend on them for every single ounce of my being. They mean the world to me. He's thriving down there though. He's slowly figuring things out and becoming the person he wants to. And the person Brandon wants to be is the most amazing person I think I'll ever meet. Before he left we talked on the phone for hours about how if he became the person he wanted to, and I became the person I wanted to, we would be perfect together. I hope that's what happens. He's holding up his end of the bargain, I hope I can keep up with mine. Huh, a sports broadcaster and a professor. Pretty good combo. He even talked about maybe working as a foreign sports broadcaster. He says that would be a dream job for him. Covering baseball games in Spanish... HA, maybe we'll work together at WGN or ESPN. Weird. So, on more semester at LLCC, then on to UIS probably, OR Columbia up in Chi-town if I can afford it. Then my internship at either WGN or ESPN.. then Im thrust out into the real world. Scary. Im not quite ready to be an adult yet, but adulthood is sucking me in. Me and Brandon's relationship is heading towards the next level, my career is heading towards the next level, I guess I should get my ass up to the next level. Everyone is growing up. I still remember the days when we would all hang out at Perkins till 2 am and then go to carpenters park till the wee hours of the morning just fooling around. I miss those days. No cares, no worries. The good ol' days. There, you know Im getting old when I say things like that. Anyhoo, I guess I'll end this huge long boring thing. Everything is going great! Everyone is doing great! Im doing great, Brandons doing great, the rest of the crew are doing great. Its a good time to be me at this point! (well besides the unemployment!) Love you all, nitey nite!!!
