I love the fourth of July! I love fireworks. We go see the ones in Riverside cuz they are by Teres's house though they are not the best ones I don't think. So far they have no been canceled due to rain and now it seems to have stopped so I hope they are ok. I used to like the ones by my grandma's house more but they don't have them anymore. My real favorites are the Kenmore Days ones at Mang Park. THey are like super long and super good and super tacky. They have strange ones like you have never seen before. I think it was lats year that some accidentally went off like 3 hours early and everyone thought kenmore was blowing up, i think someone got injured. Oh there aslo is usually some really crazy cover band/karaoke before hand that always entertains.

Oh The Class and the SassLast night I went to Sample with some people from work because I was told they have an amazing honey lavendar martini that is like aromatherapy for your mouth! It clearly was not the amazingness I had heard it claimed to be. I guess it was a different bartender and not that it was bad but it was not the amazingness I had heard it was supposed to be. Later we went to Mother's and sat on the patio. It was really nice out there. Their patio is really nice and when one of us dropped a glass and broke it and it was a full drink they gave her a new one for free. That was nice! At Mother's we got in a little fightishness with a guy who like owns/maanges/works at or just feels passionately about Sample and we told him the martinis were not th same and not as recommendable and he was trying to syaing all if you want the same thing all the time then go to a chain restaurant bar. Um , like we get that it is gonna be kinda different depending on who makes it and not always be the same but honestly I guess it didn't have like any of even the same sort of lflavor. It tasted like grapefruti martini with no hint of honeyh or lavendar or really, that seems like a problem. Anywho , I think Sample needs a new layout. I don't love the set up there. I think it is way busier than they expected it would be or something and the bar area is not large neough. the waiters and stuff seem to have a hard time getting around all the people just at the bar and stuff.
I'm sure I left people some interesting voice mails and text messages last night..eh a night in the life of my Eckerd friends.

I hate the smell of lavender. It reminds me of those horrible feminine-seashell style -pastel, wallpapered bathrooms with carpet and glass potpourri dishes.

Dagoba makes a Lavander chocolate bar to go with your honey lavender martini. It is like the most delicious potpourri you ever ate.

Finals, Finals, FinalsSo I had my lab practical today which I tihnk is the way harder part of the final. Basically they can ask us any little thing from any little part of the semester they could have asked and then had you compare that to any of the millions of other species we looked at for 1 minute. Anywho that part is over and I tihnk the lowest I oculd have got was a 50 (out of 100) but hopeeuflly i did at least a little better. I can lose 52 points between the lab practical and final. If i raelly lost 50 points that only gives me 2 points free to lose tomorow out of 200 on the final. LUckily the tests are easier than the lab part really. But 2 poitns isn't very much. Or they oculd always curve but he said prolly not but i'm hoping peoploe did real bad. Eh i should be studying an dnot typing so so long peeps

holy shit, i remember when they went off early! oh kenmore, you are so far away...kinda glad, because i think i started hating on kenmore a long time ago. do you remember when there was an earthquake in kenmore? my desk fell on top of me, and i thought the world was ending... happy 4th peach!
I have never seen those one but I heard they are pretty good from someone else also. The Crazzest ones I saw I think where in Cleveland I was with my family and we where on some hill or slanted patch of grass and all that I can remember is that as the fire works where going off people who shoting of there own from the grass, I have no idea how old I was then. I still think the best ones where at LaSalle Park. Hey granted one year and sometimes they went off kinda close to the ground and pieces would hit the ground. But it was allways super packed but that was the old days.
