Do you know how much shit you can get away with in New York? I was in bars every night, the bartenders knew I was 18, and they still offered me alcohol.
Wow.
Aside from that, I had an amazing trip! We saw three shows on Broadway, ate at Sardi's and Balthazar, and got to go backstage for one of the shows. Most of the time, I was hanging out with the musicians from Jersey Boys (which is how we got backstage), but I did meet two very interesting people in a bar called 'Chealsea's Grill'. Michael Lanning and his wife Maureen. They were amazing. Michael is one of the singers in the Trans-Siberian Orchestra and Maureen is an actress on Broadway and on TV. Maureen and I shared a lot of common interests, such as the amazingness of Avenue Q (which I coerced Markie into taking me to) and the love of Law & Order: SVU. She was actually called in to be a dead body on SVU, but she wasn't pale enough. LOL.
New York was fun, but I wish Lucy and Teresa had been with me. It would've been even MORE amazing if they'd been there. I would have done all the shopping stuff and all the fangirling stuff. :(
Someday. Maybe.
RENO!
My team won our division! The LOWEST division! YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
XDXD
We played 4 days out of 5 and the first 3 days we were 1 and 2 consistently. On the last day, we won all three matches! 3 and 0!
If that made no sense, this is basically what I just said:
Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday we played three matches each day. Out of those three matches, we only won one of them.
So, yeah, my high school volleyball career is officially over. I nearly cried when I said it out loud. These past five years have been so amazing. I've met some amazing people and made some very good friends.
This year was the best, though. It started out a little rocky, but by the time we got back to San Diego, we were all hugging and laughing and making plans to get together during the last 6 weeks of summer.
I don't know if I mentioned it or not, but I'm writing a story based on my blog ramblings/real-life experiences. The fourth chapter happened to be open when I booted up my laptop in Reno's airport and Laura asked what it was. I told her it was a story I was writing and the next thing I knew, it was like pre-school all over again. Laura had my laptop in her lap and she was sitting on the floor with the team surrounding her and listening to her read. It was better than getting reviews on fictionpress. I could actually SEE their reactions and HEAR their laughter and 'aww's. It was amazing. Lindsay even said that her favorite part was the 'in my pants' part. MY favorite part happened just after that, but...you know. :P
I think that's all I have to say about NY and Reno. Both trips were amazing and fun and unforgettable.
Now onto college! Yayyyyy!
When I got home, I had a huge packet of info from Etown, including all my email and ECWeb log-in stuff. I finally got my roommate survey done AND my email account set up AND my facebook network page updated. Not to mention, I almost have my ID number memorized. Haha.
I had to email one of my professors and he sent me back a survey to complete. But I got distracted by facebook about an hour ago and now I'm writing this instead of the survey.
Whoops.
I'll finish it before I go to bed tonight. Haha.
So, I counted how many days there are until I move. Not counting today, I have 35 days left. Which means I REALLY need to start packing. lol. I procrastinate way too much. Teresa's already done with packing. Mostly.
Ugh.
That's it for today. I'm a little scattered 'cause I'm tired (still recovering from a week of volleyball). Sorry.
I'm off to pack/finish the survey/goof off on facebook/memorize my ID number! Love ya!
