Hey look, it's Picnic Day!

Picnic Day has arrived Ladies and Gents!

In case you don't know, Picnic Day is a gigantic festival thing in Davis. Pretty much the whole city shows up, it's awesome.

I'm going up with my friend Chloe and I already have over 450 songs ready to GO because it's a 3 hr drive either way, so I've gotta be prepared for the epic jam seshs that are bound to happen.

On the agenda:
Doxie Derby (people dress up their weiner dogs in little costumes, capes, etc and race them around! It's the most adorable thing ever!)
T-shirt tye-dyeing
liquid nitrogen ice cream tasting
Chemistry Magic Show
And a late night bar crawl! (Not an official Picnic Day event, but surely a tradition in it's own way)

We're staying with my friend Rachel, who is practically the world's sweetest person ever, and I'm taking Toby up there so he can play with her dog Crosby! It's going to be SOOO much fun! Pics to come later =]

Day 30, I did it!

:movies you can watch again and again

Ohhhh man. There are so many!!

1. The Goonies. I love this movie. By the time I was about 8, I had already worn out 2 VHS' of it. I LOVED this movie as a kid, and as an adult I still feel the same.

2. Walk the Line. It's a Johnny Cash movie, and it's really great!!

3. Young Frankenstein. CLASSIC Mel Brooks. Seriously, what is there to dislike about a black and white parody movie about Frankenstein? Haha.

4. Fracture. Anthony Hopkins is (in my opinion) one of the greatest actors of our time. He can adapt SO well to any roll; whether it's creepy or funny. He's a genius in this movie that kills his wife.

5. World's Fastest Indian. Another Anthony Hopkins movie, but in this one he's the Australian guy who broke the land speed record on an Indian motorcycle. If you haven't seen it, you should!

6. Forgetting Sarah Marshall. HILAAAAAAAAARIOUS. That's all I can say about that one.

7. Rain Man. Dustin Hoffman did this roll justice.

8. A Knight's Tale.

9. All of the Lord of the Rings movies.

10. All of the Harry Potter movies! Loveeeee them!!

11. I Love You, Man.

I'm sure there are many others! I just happened to take a glance at my movie collection and saw which ones I watch a lot.

:favorite tv shows and why you like them


Oh man, I love Charmed! It's a show about witches, dark magic, etc etc. Sounds fully corny, but I really like it!

Day 28

:cruise a thesaurus and pick out 10 words that you like the sound of

Well, I don't own a thesaurus. Honestly, who does anymore?? Ridiculous.

So, I'm just going to tell you some words that I DON'T like.

Moist. This word is just gross sounding, despite the actual definition of it! It's just a weird sounding word.

Elbow. It flows awkwardly off the tongue and just seems like no one thought it out very well.

Those are the only two that I can think of at the moment, but it's kind of a weird thing I have against those words.

Day 27

:my day job vs my passion

My day job is working at door and window shop, and I like it. It's a fun job and there's always more to learn, but it's not my passion by any means.

As of right now, my passion is cooking and baking. I'd LOVE to open up a bakery/coffee shop, in the true European style. I also want to work with children with Autism. Sooooo, we'll see where I end up!

Day 26

:list 10 things you are thankful for

1. Family. They are KILLERRRR.
2. Friends. Always there for me, no matter what!!
3. Chris. He can be the world's largest pain in the ass, but he loves me and I love him and we are good for each other.
4. My job. In this economy, I'm happy to have any job, but at least this one is something that I could see myself doing until I finish school (and possibly beyond if I can't find something in my field to do while I go to grad school!)
5. Toby!!! The little guyyy!! He's my favorite, he's always happy to see me and misses me constantly when I'm not there.
6. My home. I love where I live. It's cozy and homey.
7. Happiness. I'm happy with my life, and I don't feel like I need much more than that!
8. School. Many people don't get the opportunity to go to school, and I want to continue mine further.
9. Lazy days. They are the best and fully necessary when your schedule is as crazy as mine!!
10. Books. I love books. They are so useful and entertaining!
