in an endless summer...let me go waste my time

i wish this could be endless, because i don't know how long this will last and whether or not i will regret it.

its the summer between high school and college...and it scares me because i only have 3 more months to grow up.

The other night i stayed up looking through all the old boxes i have, full of papers, pictures, diaries, and mementos of my life over the past eight years. through middle school and highschool.

it was bizzarre and yet all i kept thinking was, "am i missing something?"

like some clue as to what to do with my life would suddenly pop out

June hasn't even really started, but I've been out for almost three weeks. no finals so to every underclasssman who reads this, "haha suckas!"

that was probably inappropriate.

Madonna Day. At my catholic high school, the day before graduation is called madonna day and its basically an awards ceremony. For the first time ever, I actually got two awards in digital photography and English 4. that was actually quite bizzare for me, because i almost never get awarded for anything involving academics.

The virgin mary ice sculpture was hands down the greatest part of madonna day...and thats including sister janes speech that included the theme song from friends and vitamin c's graduation. Here is a picture of danielle and i holding the frozen madonna's hands. i don't know where this ends up on the spectrum of sacreligiousness. I also don't understand how this ended up on the decoration committee's agenda...i can only imagine the administration being like, "And right next to the sandwiches, we should have a giant ice sculpture of the virgin mary! And about that cake..."

dont judge. the grad cap doesn't flatter anybody. and i added this only so i could prove i actually graduated.

Grad party! So, this is the giant $600+ pan of seafood paella that i ate. well, not all of it, but a good portion over the next 4 days it was in my fridge.

Souvlaki.... hot and roasting on the grill. this is what greek uncles from queens with lamb expertise are for.

when im not stuffing my face or graduating, i'm hanging with friends or working. my job at the museum ended (see end of the year picnic party pic above) so i figured i might as well make some money by finding another job. my friends were already working at the binkini store in one of our malls so i figured "why not?" to be honest, i'm not sure what i was thinking by getting into retail. i hate shopping and i hate hanging anything. But the job isnt half bad and even though i have to listen to rihanna and "make love in the club" and lil' wayne almost 10 times a day, i kind of like it.

NYU here i come....and yes, that is carrie bradshaw in the front seat of my race car...i mean, who else to better represent new york? and NYU violet? i think not...

I did see the movie actually, but only after sipping down martini's with my two aunts and getting someone's number from the bar. so thats one samatha jones point down. get me preggers and move me to brooklyn and then i'll be pulling a miranda.
