Happy 6 month anniversary

It was mine and Jeff's 6 month anniversary earlier this week. It was a very fun. The itself day had it's ups and downs, not because of Jeff. Mainly because of a parking ticket, ruining two rolls of film, and staying up very late as a result of my mistake.

But on a happier note, Jeff is a darling. He is the most perfect boyfriend, he is sweeter, more thoughtful, kinder, more gentle, more affectionate, considerate, tender, and loving than I ever thought any boy could be. He is better than the guy of my dreams.

I got two beautiful necklaces, the most breathtaking bouquet of roses in the world, and a breakfast date!

We make some good dinners...

Erica and I are quite the little chefs! We make a really great team. Our chinease chicken salad was delicious, and we have had many great dinners since that have been just as great. Tonight I made the best shepherds pie I have ever tasted!

Ballerina!

I love my ballet class! I love dressing up! The day I got my leotards I wore them out to the store. =)

The perfect cure...

No matter how bad my day has been, how cranky I have been, how tired I am from lack of sleep due to Toby barking at the storm, or how cold and wet I have been as a result of getting caught in downpours all day snuggling with Jeff really makes everything better.

Hopefully I get the chance to do that today.

Erica

Getting to know my roommate Erica over these past few weeks has been so great. I really think they need to create a tv show about her life and have her play herself. I laugh so histerically when I am with her. Just the things she says and does are so beyond brilliant. She is also very thoughtful and sweet, and always willing to listen to anyone. Erica is also a very adorable and cute person...especially when she is angry. haha

Bottom line is I love her! I am not missing Geneva being with her. =)

Cleanliness...

I am so extremely proud of myself. Once I had finally gotten my room straightened up (which took a bit after I moved in) I was motivated to keep my room clean. To my surprise I have done just that. I clean up after myself, I put things away, I don't leave clothes on the floor -i hang them or fold them and put them away, I vacuum often, I constantly dust and tidy up.

I love it. I have never been an extremely clean person (as my roommate freshman year would whole-heartedly agree). Normally I slowly make a huge mess and clean up once a week. I like my new method better.

Cousins, Cousins, and More Cousins...

Our family NEVER comes to see us. Why? Because we are the only ones (well I guess except my swiss aunt and uncle) who live out of the New Jersey-PA area.

My parents bought all my cousins (which totals to 14) plane tickets to come visit them in either CA, Ocean city, or Texas.

The first batch who were here were Oscar, Eve, and Dierdra. They were cute, and Oscar was a tad annoying- most little boys are. The girls were just pure delight. I really only spent the day with them, but Dierdra is very Fun! (i usually only hang with the cousins on my mom's side).

The second batch was Maria J and Christina (a swiss cousin). It was so great to have Christina here for as long as she was. We are all pushing for them to move to the US in the next few years. So it was good to have Chris see college life in America.

clumsiness seems to be raining down on me

I went through a very VERY clumsy stage around junior high...as most normal human beings do.

It seems that in the past week, I have reverted to my old clumsy junior high ways again.

Last week I opened the car door hard, and slammed it into my face. My face hurt just up until yesterday. Not sure how I missed my face being in the way of the car door...
Just a few minutes ago, I attempted to walk into my bathroom, but instead successfully slammed the corner of my foot into the open bathroom door. Not sure how this is possible, but I am mildly concerned I broke my small toe.
And of coarse what would clumsiness be without the random trip on nothing while walking scenario. (this has happened almost everyday, and conveniently in front of a whole bunch of people)

...maybe ballet will help me be more graceful.
