It is 3:59 in the morning, and I am wide awake. I really shouldn't have drank that Monster tonight, but I was really thirsty.

La la la la la...

So I went to a Mae concert today with Bryan, Kharifa, Lisa, and Phil. It wasn't quite as energized as the last concert I went to, but it was still pretty fun. We ate at Denny's before the concert to kill time. Phil saw a guy who might be a part of Mae but wasn't sure if he was really the guy. I was going to go over to him to ask, but Phil didn't want me to because he wasn't sure. And what do you know! It was the guy after all! Oh well, maybe next time.

At the concert tonight a lot of the band members looked like someone on TV. From As Tall As Lions, the lead singer reminded me of Peter Brady from the Brady Bunch. But he looked more like the older one from the Christmas movie they did when they were all grown up. And the base guitarist looked like Bob Saget from Full House. The lead singer from Mae looks like Jake, Elliot's ex boyfriend on Scrubs.

I had an interesting run in with As Tall As Lions' base guitarist. I went to a quiet place where I could make a phone call, which happened to be where the restrooms are. In the middle of my call, the lead guitarist steps out of the restroom in nothing but a towel around his waist. I wondered if he was taking a shower in there or something. Then I wanted to tell him that they did a great job performing tonight, but decided not to because I felt awkward talking to a complete stranger while he was just in a towel.

After the concert I could barely hear. Everything sounded muffled, and there was ringing in my head. Somehow my lack of hearing resulted in my voice sounding like I inhaled helium. All of us were pretty much deaf for the rest of the ride back. I can still hear the ringing!!

Damn it. I want to sleep, but I can't. Maybe I'll see what's on TV. Stupid Monster.

Last week was a fun filled week. It started off with going to San Diego with Megan and Bryan. We watched Superbad, and I was caught off guard by how dirty the movie was. But it was a hilarious movie! Certain quotes from that movie will never be forgotten. After the movie, we went to Extraordinary Desserts. I love that place! Their desserts are delicious.
We took our desserts over to La Jolla Cove. I much prefer the cove over the beach because there are less people, and it's prettier.
I've never seen someone write this before. Haha!
Apparently, San Diego is a big hot air ballooning spot. I've always wanted to go, but I think that once I got up there I would be too scared to enjoy it.

On Tuesday I went to Montclair to get my First Aid Certificate. I'm not really sure what the difference between CPR and First Aid is, but I'm certified for both.
Montclair Plaza was right next door to the First Aid place so I got to do some shopping. =D

I had some holds on my registration so I had to go to LLU on Wednesday. It is so hot there! Walking from my car to a building required so much energy. Other than the heat, it was actually a good trip. I saw a lot of people that I got to catch up with.
When I got back to LA, I went to eat Salvadorian food with Jenelyn. I love pupusas! I'm really going to miss Briggitte's grandmother's cooking. She always had something while at the dorm. On our way back home, Jen and I got a little lost. But good came out of it because we got to explore LA. We went to the Walt Disney Concert Hall and the LA Music Center.
I never knew LA had these beautiful fountains. There were 10 fountains all in a one block range of each other.
The next day we had out last dinner together since Jen was leaving for Texas the next day. We ate at There's No Place Like Home in Silverlake. Jen and I decided to take them to LA after so we could take pictures by the fountains and Downtown LA. A lot of the pictures are blurry because we didn't use flash. The flash made the pictures come out oddly colored.
I like this picture because we are arranged by height, and we didn't even mean to do it.
Khaing was on a rampage trying to attack Kevin. Aah, good times.
The girls...
The boys...
And all of us hanging out by the fountain

On Friday I went to the market, and I went fruit crazy. I bought a bunch of different fruits, from blueberries to nectarines. Yum!
I went to Cingular to upgrade my plan. I'm in desperate need for a new cell phone. My current phone turns off randomly. I'm thinking about getting a Blackberry because it would be convenient for some things at LLU. But I'm trying to get one cheaper than $300. So if anyone knows of somewhere I can get it for a cheaper price, please let me know.

One more month of summer... I hope it's a good one.
