i'm going going back back to cali cali

howdy howdy howdy
i arrived to california last night around 6 pm EST. lauren was a sweety and picked me up. the drive home was rough but we eventually found our way to amanda's empty house! so i just watched snl videos on repeat until her friend mike came over to entertain me! we went and got gas, parked at a meter, put in coins, walked a little bit, went back and put more coins in, walked a little bit then decided that we wouldnt have enough time so we walked back and moved the car, walked 8 miles to the end of the pier to find ruby's closed, walked 8 miles back plus 2 miles to dairy queen to find it closed to walked to BJ's to eat, sat down, got a menu and decided we didnt feel like this pizza. so we walked 1/2 a mile back to the car and went to 'albertson's' and got frozen pizza and came home and made it with nephi and amanda! so fetch but too much walking, it was literally two hours of walking.

we gave each other tattoos. mature.

amanda and i fell fast asleep, woke up at 10 and jogged to the gym, worked out, walked to get breakfast/lunch and walked home.

Me: I hope so.
Man: This is where the money is.
Me: haha...
Man: Alright come on back now. Bye.

He was so sweet. It's so weird to be home, I miss New York so much and no one understands. It's like when a missionary comes home and want to talk about his mission 24/7 and no one cares and no one wants to hear about it. I now kind of know what it is like being on the other end. However, one of my friends just got back from his mission in New York! Soooo that works out really nicely. We can reminisce with each other.

This is a difficult blog to write because I have so many different things on my mind. I could have taken in it so many different directions.

I'll just jump to the new addition to my family.

So I've had a few pets in the past..........thousands of fish, multiple hamsters, and a kitten. All of which I really, REALLY tried to treat well and keep alive.

But they didn't stay on this earth long.
I found them floating in the bowl, frozen solid in their cage, or, the most painful of them all, was awoken by two of my sisters one morning. When they found sweet (???????????????????) Keeska, laying very stiff, but very peaceful, on the top step in the garage.

How I loved her.

I'm hoping that won't happen with my newest, best smelling, fullest, and best dressed...

Christmas tree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My dad helped me decorate this beautiful thing after Lizzie and her roommates and I picked it out! So far it hasn't drank any water, but I'm sure it will soon...............
