At least when it comes to maintaining this website. Now to add onto my plate are all of these legal documents and such that I need to get OUT of the country for college. You would think the U.S. wouldn’t mind losing a couple of people for a couple months but nooo of course not. They put up a fight for every citizen and make it overly complicated to apply for visas, IDs, employment papers and more!
To the present, I am now waiting on my FTP Client to upload all of the scans I want to put up. It’s is a whole lot of them which explains why it is going to take 30 minutes - 2 hours until they are all posted. My life has been going peachy. Like the title says, it has been the main factor in lack of updates here. First there was that wedding dress which I’m delivering Saturday! Then there are side things like friends, random stuff and work that also help in me maintaining this life haha. Below are some pics of typical random things that have occured during my summer with description in the nexttt paragraph.
(1) My 7-year-old godsister Ariana drew me a card with her on the cover with the caption “Please don’t miss me…” and inside wrote “While your in college far far away in London!!” That pic was supposed to be of her face and it looks adorable because her interpretation is kind of good except she made her face huge. AW! :]
(2) I have been going out to eat quite often because it is summer time and my Mom tends to not cook because it is hot or she feels no one will eat it. The second one is true when my brother has work, my Dad is running errands or working, my sister is at her workshop and I am either out or at work on the same day. That pic is from an IHOP/movie date I had with my friend Jennifer.
(3) When I just want to leave my house I tend to go to this nearby park thing owned by Harvard University called the Arnold Arboredum. While there I feel like time stands still as I just walk and notice the beauty of nature like that ladybug by my favorite tree! (Yes I have a favorite tree! It’s a weeping willow.)
(4) Lastly, work! Now some people loathe work, but I actually enjoy coming into work for the random happenings that occur. The pic is of Charles Harrington’s business card which he left with my manager. He is a representative for Columbia Pictures and was in Boston scouting locations for Adam Sandler’s film in production, The Zoo Keeper. In the movie they just so happen to need a fondue place! Haha how random is that? And I happen to work in the one of TWO fondue restaurants throughout all of Boston. They came in while I was opening with about 50 guys as they picked a table for the scene they will be shooting in the restaurant in October. So mad that I will be out of the country for it!
Exciting life ain’t it? By the way that’s sarcasm. x] So to my cyber friends in the words of Wendy Williams “How you doin’?”

that picture your godsister drew is ADORABLE haha. i love it! i can’t wait until my nephew starts to learn how to draw. it’ll be awesome.
i’m the opposite! i haven’t been eating out that much since it’s summer. weird, i know. sometimes i’ll have a weird day where i’ll pig out and others i’ll just eat like 3 crackers, a cup of water, and call it a day lol.
BLAH that sucks about not being able to be there when they film the scene for the movie. that would be so cool to see, especially since adam sandler is love. but it’s good that you’re going to college, RIGHT!?

ug, i guess ill be going through the legal papers soon since im planning on studying abroad
and im ready for the scans
but i agree, it’ll probably take forever. i know i revamped my texture section & it took forever to resize everything, and then load previews and then upload the actual texture. ugg. im glad someone still has the inspiration to that 
hehe
