Day 196.

A friend who's interning away from home needed something from home. I semi live in his area, so he called me to see if I could pick it up for him since I'm gonna see him over the weekend. I was able to, so sure! :)

HAHA.

Days 194-95.

My brother and I watch a lot of Food Network and one of our favorite shows is Best Thing I Ever Ate. Yesterday, he had plans to go to one of the restaurants featured on the show and he offered to bring some food home for me. It was REALLY good. Turns out a friend actually bought it for me. Thanks thanks!

Today I was really really bummed after failing my road test, but all my friends were really sweet and caring and cheered me up a bit. I've also been really stressed just with a lot of planning and being the people pleaser I am, I get really :( when people aren't happy. By the end of the day I was just shot. I wanted to go hide in a corner. And I kind of tend to turn any not so good emotions into anger so I started getting all pent up, and the fastest way to release that is to punch something, but that obviously isn't the most effective method. So a friend that noticed all of this, didn't say anything but put her hand on my arm to calm me down and when I stood up she just opened her arms for a hug. Hugs. Best! That did the trick. Later on she helped talk me through what I was feeling and gave me words of reassurement & encouragement. THANKS!

HAHA.

Days 180-193.

Ah memory is a bit scratchy..that's what I get for being so behind huh.

Had a picnic with two special friends :) It was really nice because one of them has been super busy so it was great to see her. Thanks for taking time out of your crazy schedule!

Helped babysit a really big cutie with some friends and it's been really awesome to see friends give up some time to spend with the cutie. And the cutie's parents have been really great too to always feed us and just talk with us to see what's up with us and give us some wise advice.

Stayed over some friends' and they were gracious hosts. I was a bit hesitant to go because I've been incredibly unproductive, but wanted to spend time with them especially since one of them was gonna go MIA when her internship started.

Spending the past day or two with my friends, for the most part, we took turns treating each other. It was sweet since we're all unemployed haha

Spent the day with some friends and some of our plans didn't pan out so we were trying to figure out what to do. We ended up loitering around for a long while as usual. Called my brother to see if he was home and ask if it was okay if some friends came over so we ended up going to my place.

A really good friend needed help executing something but had his hands tied because of work. I think he did a terrible job of managing his time, but boys will be boys huh. I had some extra time so I went to his work place and helped him out. A friend drove me home after a really long night. Thanks!

Went to a church picnic and some folk left early so momma needed help cleaning and packing. It was around the time everyone was eating or food coma-ed out, but I had finished eating so I helped.

I was feeling super tired from the weekend, but someone from my family church had his kids visiting from Korea for the summer and they don't have much to do over the week cause their dad works. So with some other kids and my brother, we took them out to the city to visit a museum and go eat.

A friend needed to pay her tuition bill, but there's an additional fee to pay online. So she had to go to school to pay it, but she had work. I had some extra time so I offered to go for her and pay it so she wouldn't have to miss work.

Stayed over a friend's because her parents didn't want her to stay home alone. She had work in the morning, but let me stay and sleep in. She wrote me a sweet note and left it by glasses so I would see. (Waking up to handwritten post it notes are greater than texts!..but I see how that can be hard to execute haha).

Someone wanted to borrow a book of mine I had so sure!

A friend needed some support dealing with some people so I tried to help though it wasn't that successful.

Experienced lots of love! I love sweet talks and had a handful of those..sweet! Thanks thanks thanks :)

Momma needed help running some errands and I was available so sure!

HAHA.

Fourth of July

The nicest thing of living by the water is that you get to see fireworks from your own window rather than camping outside with heat and mosquitos.

Last night we invited friends over to enjoy the fireworks with us. I'm terrible at hosting guests but we cleaned up the house and bought marinated meat for Korean Bbq to welcome them. They also brought a lot of good food! It feels nice with the accompany of friends and good food.
