Another goal accomplished

My friend, Paige has a grandfather who owns a lakehouse and every summer her grandparents go out of down and leave Paige in charge of the house. Since yesterday was Paige's last day of staying at a lakehouse, Bevyn and I went to visit. Nice adventure.

I have always wanted to swim across Lake Travis(which is where the lakehouse is). After Paige and I discussed it, Bevyn went ahead and swam across the lake. I finished my drink and then followed. However, since I was never in swim team, took me a bit longer... like 30-45 minutes? It was a nice swim except for the huge waves I had to swim against;I kept choking on water. What was even more fun were the boats that would speed by, creating more waves. So eventually I made it to the other side. I searched for Bevyn but failed, so I just chilled along the rocks for a while and played in the sand. I saw Danny's sailboat go by the lake a few times but never towards me. "I guess they're not picking me up." I headed back to the otherside of the lake, another long swim. A few boats pass, only one asking if I was okay. I continue swimming, chokin' from the waves. The last boat turned around and commanded me to get onto their boat, since they almost ran me over thinking I was a fish. I get on. In the distance they saw 2 people on a sailboat waving them down. The boat went to pick them up and it happens to be Bevyn and Danny, the sail boat rutter broke in half.

The three of us return from a rescue mission of the boat to the dock with Paige, her mother, and Joseph cheering.

Long Update

I've been playing FF7 recently. I have a list of games to complete in order to reach awesomeness level. Anyway, one of my characters has a weapon called "nail bat." I didn't realize it was literally a baseball bat with nails on it. Currently I'm in a battle where all of my ppl are frogs, spinning in confusion while asleep and can't do much about it.

I have a kitty below me, known by many names but mainly Tilapi. My roommate brought home a kitten recently so poor Tilapi has been forced to deal with a noisy kitten. The wall is cracking slowly so all is well.

BTW, my roommate and I are on better terms now. We haven't discussed bills or anything yet but when the time comes, I'll get to it.



I've been having a lot of fun, social time recently. These past 3 wks have been awesome, well, to an extent.
Babysitting drunks has been fun, though I'm somewhat sad and dissapointed at some of the drunks. A couple wkends ago was a dramatic party, but no one remembers anything. That's just sad.
Did you know that McDonalds opens at 5/6am?67
My friend Jiyeon(korean born and raised and only been in Austin for 3 yrs)and I had a romantic date to which she took me to Austin places that I'd never been before. Isn't that my job? I finally went to Mt Benell, kinda lame but something I've always heard was in Austin and now I know the shortcut there!
4th of July was wet. I dressed up because originally I was gonna go with my friends that... dress up often but plans changed last minute. For that day, I was the fashion designer for dog head cones. First went to my family friend's BBQ which meant StarCraft noises. Then I went to Richard's last minute party which was interesting. I got red.

GRRRR!

I'm PO. Porque?

I can't complain about this on my actual journal because it's about my current roommate who is, from what I understand, sensitive about everything.

So here is my problem. Well, there are several.

***I've been in this apartment for at least 3 wks. I just NOW got internet, even though we'd had it all this time. My problem is that my roommate has had it all this time, I let him take over the router since he needed it for school. Either way, I hadn't had my cords to turn on my computer til today but he made it his responsibility to have the cords to give me internet. He didn't have them til I supplied them myself today. He probably wouldn't of had them anytime soon. I paid for all the internet this month... Why should I? I didn't even had internet. His excuse was that I could have used his own computer. How can I use a computer that is often occupied because all he does is play computer games? Shall I use his computer when he's asleep at 3am? I'm mainly mad because, why couldn't he at least suggest to pay for it? Is that really an odd request?

***Another "odd" request I have... My roommate recently brought a kitten into the household. He hasn't even suggested to pay for part of the pet deposit. I'm expected to pay $400 for having 1/2 the pets???

I've grown tired of complaining much more, even though there is plenty more. Just sucks that I dunno how to confront this matter without being extremely direct since he's too sensitive to deal with it.

Haters

I see the unfortunate-ness of not using my parent's internet/money has caused name calling. Excuse me for moving between apartments and not having internet as well as a phone for the past month? The only reason I'm posting now is because I'm at my friend's place. My love doesn't go out to all the haters out there.

So yes, I have just moved into my new apartment, but not completely since I still have to move the big furniture but since I don't have any way of contacting ppl with trucks, it's a bit more difficult to handle. Either way, it's quite comfy even though the AC doesn't work properly (the kitchen is 10 degrees cooler than the bedrooms)

I'm gonna go salsa dancing tomorrow. I went last Wednesday and it was quite fun, however kinda like a dating service (change dance partners every 2 mins and reintroduce urselves) Hopefully some of my dance partners don't repeat...

My bf likes Superman. Therefore I have snuck into his room and put on new Superman bedsheets for him to be welcomed to when he returns home. Exactly why I have internet right now.

StarCraft

Who just owned Blake and Charles in Starcraft?
Yes... Leah.
Though I didn't really kill Charles, he was killed in the beginning... and I was scared the whole time... but I defeated the undefeated Blake with my first attempt might I add. Yahahha!

Want a Depressing movie?

I watched part of March of the Penguins yesterday. WHAT A HORRIBLE MOVIE! I couldn't finish it. Example:...and the penguin had no hope of escaping the darkness engulfing him. I'm studying for finals, I don't need to get depressed about all the thousands of ways penguins are screwed as a species!
So I watched Alien and Aliens instead. I felt much better afterwards.

Toads

Kai suggested me to join the "cousin" blog line so sure... here I am.

I still prefer livejournal.
