So its been a crazy weekend. Came back Friday night for Jess's birthday, and sorta ran out of time preparing everything. Craziness came from having too many things to take care of from the household stuff to prepping birthday stuff, among other things.

Ended up making a card, baking a cake topped with frosting, strawberries, little bit of chocolate and some sprinkles, and a picture frame with "HAPPY 20!! all cut out into individual letters and me posing with them. A collage type thing with a polaroid frame for the background. Borrowed my sisters computer for a software she had and wasn't exactly sure how to use it completely, so i spent an hour working before i figured out some shortcuts and then it crashed, thus I ended up having to redo the entire thing all over again, however the second time around it was a bit faster since I knew the shortcuts now to make it the way I wanted it to look. Speaking of which, Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love you!

And because of this, I get to take the bus back to Santa Cruz tomorrow, waking up around 530am to get to the bus station on time, walking 1/2 a mile to get to the bus station near the HP Pavillion, and spending a little over an hour on the HWY 17 Express back to Santa Cruz, then getting on a different bus to get back to my room on campus. Sigh...all that trouble but well worth it ;]

All 4 One - Not Ready 4 Goodbye

Sittin' here starin' at the wall
Another lonely tear falls
I'm tryin' to write you this song
But I can hardly see the page at all‘

Cause it's breaking my heart
When I look in your eyes
And I don't see me anymore
Oh, and you're all I'm living for

Baby, tell me that you still believeT
hat you still love me
The way I love you
If you take your love away from me
You know I would die‘
Cause I'm not ready for goodbye (Oh...oh...oh...

)Baby, please pick up the phone
Tell me I'm crazy, I got it all wrong
I don't know what I'm gonna do
I don't know how to live without you

You are the first songMy heart ever heard
And baby, I-I believed every word
You are my heart, my soul, my world

Baby, tell me that you still believe {Still believe
That you still love me {That you still love me, baby
The way I love you {The way I love you

If you take your love away from me {Away from me
You know I would die {I would die
‘Cause I'm not ready for goodbye {Goodbye

Every breath that I take, every beat of my heart
You know it's all for you
I wanna hold you, I wanna love you
Forever and always

Baby, tell me that you still believe {Tell me
That you still love me {That you still love me, baby
The way I love you {The way I love you
If you take your love away from me {Oh...oh...oh...
You know I would die {Oh...
‘Cause I'm not ready for {Goodbye

Baby, tell me that you still believe (Tell me)
That you still love me (That you still love me)
The way I love you {The way I love you
If you take your love away from me (If you take yourlove away)
I know I would die (I know I would die)
‘Cause I'm not ready for goodbye, goodbye, goodbye,goodbye

i could use a little hope and a miracle right about now...

So this last week or so has been pretty chaotic. Orientation leader training is far more grueling than previously expected, with long and jampacked days filled with meetings and lots of logistical coordination. After moving in monday, we had only four days to get everything done until the big freshman move in on saturday came around, and that when it did, that was a long day. Traffic control is a bitch, parents fucking think they know everything, people being dicks, after having 10 happy people drive by, it only takes one fucker to ruin the happy mood for you. AFter a nice 730am-430pm day moving people in, a short break and at 730pm setup dining hall for skits to show freshman the different stuff around campus.

Sunday was move in for the returning students, I got to take it easy and just tell people how to get to their move in spot closest to their building, and later on i took over for radio central. Much fun with all the great conversations over the radio since it was a significantly slower day than saturday.

Been doing all the projects that OL's (orientation leaders) have had to do, and been really exhausted and tired. A night hike on two consecutive days and a scavenger hunt around the entire campus today. At least all my projects are over now and its smooth sailing as far as being an ol goes.

Boardwalk thing yesterday, lots of fun since Jessica came down to see me. We went to Marianne's too, great ice cream parlor on Ocean St. and had some really really good ice cream there.

heh, she's coming again today =D so im really happy to see her xD because i miss her a lot these days. okok, gotta end this, shes on campus now!!!

So it winds down to the last minute that today is my birthday.  Didn't do anything special really.  I have to admit that it does bum me out to have not a single person IM me or call to say happy birthday to me.  There were a couple UCSC friends that told me a few days ago since they're busy and what not, so I do count those, but aside from those immediatly close to me, not a single person told me that.  I have to say, it is quite disappointing. 
 
Understandably, I know that more would have said so if I had announced it, though I honestly really didn't see the point.  My birthday has always been in the summer, so I've missed out celebratory congradulations that comes from everyone at school, but on the plus side I've never endured a birthday beating which isn't too bad a trade-off considering what happens to some guys...who go home with purple arms and can't move them for several days without excruciating pain. 
 
Anyways, I'm 19 now.  Happy Birthday Jesse =D
