  • My grandparents have left the building! Finally! I mean, they're great and everything, but I was getting tired of Roz intruding into everything and tidying up and putting stuff where we can't find it, and just generally …
  • So I felt extremely tired around noon, took a nap and a shower, and I'm feeling much better now. However, I still need to call the library. See, I realized I can't come in on July 10th, at least not at 10:00 AM like Cind…
  • Two surprises! Yay!#1, which I found out about an hour ago: I got the job! I'll be going to the library to fill out paperwork and do orientation-type stuff on July 10th. Yay.#2, which is the surprise I was actually inten…
  • Sooo tired. I've been cleaning my room for the past two hours. I'm still not done. And there's stuff strewn all over the bed, waiting to be organized. I don't know where to put any of it. Sigh.That's all for now, but I p…
  • Man, I had the WEIRDEST dream last night. Making blue ice cream; smuggling SweetTarts away from these tiny creatures by putting a long tube of them in the leg of my pajama pants (I was wearing pajamas, which is weird bec…
  • I think I did okay with the interview. Cindy was the one interviewing me. First she gave me some tests involving organizing cards alphabetically and by the Dewey decimal system. I did alright with that, and then she aske…
  • I have a job interview today. Nervous as hell, no clue what to wear, etc. It's at the library. If I do get a job there, it'd be pretty ideal, because the hours are flexible, the pay is good, and I can just walk there.…
  • Things on the cruise I wish I'd photographed: ~ the little signs on the floors of the elevators that told you what day it was (Monday, Tuesday, etc--the staff changed them at midnight each night) ~ the pools, the sol…
  • These are two tosses I did onboard the Freedom. The first is of these huge traffic lights hanging from the ceiling at one end of the promenade; the second is of the chandelier in the dining hall.If you want more, visit m…
  • Jamaica! Irie mon (which I found out means, "I'm good, dude!" or something to that effect)! This is the view off our balcony (which was almost in the middle of the stern, or back, of the ship). Nice, yeah?So we (my entir…
  • Grand Cayman! We came when it was cloudy and rainy, but it was still a nice place.Tysen, Dad and I went on a semi-submarine tour of the bay, followed by a short tour of that particular region of the island, including Hel…
  • Okay! First port-of-call: Cozumel, Mexico. Lovely place. (Okay, so it got beaten up by Hurricane Wilma, but it's still pretty nice.)Note the color of the water. That's not the camera--it really is that color. Beautiful.W…
  • Okay, so, back to the inside of the ship.THIS is the Royal Promenade, where there are a bunch of shops and stuff, including a cosmetics place, a couple of very expensive boutiques, a souvenir shop, a coffee place, and Be…
  • Okay, so! Finally, a chance to begin writing about the cruise.Now, this cruise was not just any cruise. This was the maiden voyage of the largest cruise ship ever built, the Freedom of the Seas. Whoa. Big deal, right? Ye…
  • I'm baaack!Pictures and stories later today, hopefully.-
  • It feels so weird having graduated and not doing anything. I've been so bored and lonely for the past two days I can't even read a book. I went to the mall with Greg today, though, and got two sundresses and two skirts f…
