Who wouldn't want to spend a week on the beach with nothing else to do?<br /><br />Anywho, enough daydreaming. I've come to the conclusion that I need to be sent back to school immediately. I can't stand wasting the summer away with nothing but work work work and an occasional friend or two. I wish Liz lived closer by, and Ali too. I wish Kel and Drew didn't have to work when I have the day off, and vice versa. I hope this summer ends with a happy ending......&lt;3<br /><br />I miss the following people and I need them back in my life ASAP: Liz, Ali, Mike, Matt, and Libby.....maybe even Danielle too.<br /><br />The other day I actually wished that I could be Kira or Krystle. Granted raising a child is probably the hardest job in the world, but at least they know where they stand in life. I want to know where I belong. Yeah, I know, I'm lucky...I get to go to school (which I am very thankful for everyday) and I get to have my freedom for a few more years without having to care for a child, but sometimes I wonder what it would be like if I had been in either of their positions. Here I am, seeing two of my best friends with lives that I could never imagine, and it hurts me and opens my eyes to not know what they experience everyday. <br /><br />Wow, what a depressing post.<br /><br />Anyway, on to good stuff....Drew and I went swimming yesterday. It was great. I'm totally sunburned...but it was worth it. <br /><br />Kel-Dawg and I are gonna go see two of my favorite actors (Owen & Vince) and favorite actress (Rachel McAdams) EVER in Wedding Crashers tonight...so excited!<br /><br />It's better to have fun with the people you love and who love you back instead of wasting your time with someone who doesn't. ~~&gt; That's how I'm living from now on. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:simplysweet168:187894 2005-07-15T23:43:01Z 2005-07-15T23:43:01Z Forgot to mention that I saw Krystle and her beautiful daughter Emma today.
