Eye on the prize!

I am back (booo) from my very fun (pictures will be posted soon) weekend escape and getting ready to start the two 2,500 word essays that are due Tuesday. If only I could find the motivation...

Things I am looking forward to: CA edition (in no particular order)

1. Island's Restaurant (I've been dreaming of the cheese fries YUM)

2. having an income! I'll be babysitting part time for one of my favorite families

3. Happy Hour at Pink Taco. I think I'll be eating Mexican food at least once a day!

4. Seeing my friends (Of course I love my Oz friends but I miss my LA friends)

5. My internship! I'll be "volunteering" (aka free labor) on a psych/law project

6. Weekly movies and TV marathons! Movies are expensive here plus I just run out of time so when I'm home I'll need to make up for lost time ;)

7. Celebrity stalking (see number 3),movie premieres, Hollywood Bowl and all that LA jazz :)

8. Hanging with my family! (see numbers 1, 3, and 6)

9. road trips to Las Vegas and Santa Barbara

10. Shopping! J.Crew outlet, TJ Maxx, Marshalls! I am going to go through my closet and sell a lot of clothing I left behind. I mean if I can survive without it for 6 months then these things must not be vital to my wardrobe! Then I can use the money to buy new things ;) I usually sell back to Crossroads.
I can either get cash or store credit (and the store has tons of great labels/designers).

  7. We love the list of things you want to do when you get back. Heck, we'll feel better having you back stateside! You do have our best good thoughts headed your way through cyberspace on the essays. Ugh. Hated that stuff.
    Hang in there -- you are almost home!
