oh how i love looking at fireworks. hehe even though we didn't go to a show or light our own this year, just the drive back to lou's house was fun enough for me. i swear my gaze must've shifted so many times from concentrating on the freeway to looking at the glow of all the fireworks popping in the air..so pretty..too bad we were moving to fast to see them..but still..always nice to look at. i think i like the ones that pop once in the air, and then pop one more time.. even bigger..like how a dandelion looks..ooh and if they sparkle too, even better!..lou was laughing at me cuz i kept stairing out the window while i was driving and even when we got to the house i wanted to watch some more on tv...maybe it just brings back the kid in me..who knows..hypnotizing they are.

you know what i don't get sometimes? what's the point in asking someone how to do something, if you're just going to ask a zillion other people the same thing..and you keep getting the same answer...i don't get it sometimes..haha, maybe it's b/c i'm a girl and they don't think i can answer on my own? oh well..don't believe me then=P...hehe that last sentence reminded me of beetlejuice for some reason. you know the jamaican/caribbean song at the very end of the movie.."okay i believe you." hahah high-larious!

ahhh so the weekend has come and gone..4 days just seemed so short. i was so freaking tired this morning..which is funny to me seeing as how the whole weekend i thought i was waking up early as it is..usually around 8-830..but today i had to be dragged out of bed..so sleepy..i'm pretty awake now i guess..still want to take a nap when i get home..but i want to look up some chicken recipes too..ahhh decisions decisions.

i missed the beach so much..we were able to go again this weekend..woohoo twice this time..first time at newport..bypassed all the crowds looking for parking..and i was able to cool off in the water..ahhh felt nice..hahah..not to mention the fact that after catching a wave on my board, the freaking white water crashed on my back and all of the sudden that "uh-oh" feeling came..i stood up and totally felt my top unfastening!!! luckily i was able to turn away from the shore towards the waves just as the whole thing unfastened and i grabbed it..ahhh..can i tell you, it's soooo hard to try to fasten your bikini top when you have the waves crashing against your tummy..not to mention a board strapped to your wrist so that your hand keeps getting pulled away b/c of the current...by the time boyfriend saw me, he was all excited about the waves and calling me over that i had to give him that mean look of mine just to get him to understand that i need HELP!! hahah...too funny man.

we tried newport again on monday, but maaaaaaaaaaan it was a madhouse just driving down balboa..so we opted for huntington, and this time i made sure that i had on a stringy top that i could double knot to prevent the fallen top from happening=P. i heard that the weather's suppose to cool down this weekend..hopefully it'll still be good beach weather though...ahhh..this shall be a golden summer...or bronzed?..hahah or maybe even chocolate!!! oooh and it's time for the oc fair...grilled corn..blooming onions...cotton candy...yuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum!!!
