We go home today.
6:15. On the bus. All the way back to Oregon. I'm not sure what a twenty hour bus ride is going to be like. I'm feeling bittersweet right now. I love it here so much, but i'm dying to see my family and sleep in my OWN bed. It's been a good two weeks. Two weeks that i will always remember.
And even though havasupai didn't come, i can still say i have some rad everlasting memories. Definitely.
Yesterday was a good last day. 2 words: WATER PARK. (note: watching the boys take coke cans out of the trashcans just so they could get a discount on their tickets was rather adorable.) Really, you had to be there. Baha.
I'm leaving california with a smile.(and a lot of new friends.)
Have a jolly day.
Love,
mandy.

"name one time i didn't like being here..."
I don't think i want to go home.
THE END.
It's been so much more than i hoped two weeks in california would be like. REALLY.
The trip got twisted up, but everyone went with it. And must i say it was beautiful. Every single bit. Pictures coming soon. I promise.
Endless hours of driving this week. But i didn't mind it at all. Because when you're with uh-mazing people, it's like you don't even notice.(but one thing you do notice is the country music. Sorry. I don't think i'll ever LOVE you.) I've officially been to nine states now. O yeah baby(o; Seeing the grand canyon was like nothing words can describe. Go see it for yourself. It will be worth it. And cliff jumping is my new best friend. I liiike that. It was a rather perfect trip.
Dear Roses,
THANK YOU.(x100)
Leaving saturday is looking so very turdy right now. Seriously. 20 hours on a bus. Trying not to think about it that much. I'm coming back. One day.
Today is the beach maybe. I don't know, but i'm looking forward to it.
Have a jolly day lovelies.(cause i know i will.)
Yours,
mandy.

coming from the kitchen
I can already tell today is going to be uh-mazing.
I get to wake up early everyday this week. But the funny thing is, i don't mind it at all. It's rather lovely.
I'm sitting here, at my kitchen table, drinking tea, and blogging my heart out.
Yes. What else do i need?(smile)
Yesterday:
Little Tyke's Sports Camp.(+today+tomorrow+and the next day...)
I danced.(i hereby make it a rule in life: YOU MUST DANCE AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK.)
And i excercised way to much. Five hours to be precise. (martial arts, hike, treadmill, dance, eliptical, and walk.) I was pretty dead at the end of the night. O boy. My life is a gym.
SKYPE TOMORROW NIGHT.
Camp in (3) days.
I need to go buy cocoa powder.
kirsten,
i will make that pudding if it's going to kill me.
love, mandy.
Have a smashing day dears.
Seriously.
Love. Mandy.

I was happy today.
So entirely happy.
Convo while sitting on the store floor.
Lady at the store-"Is your hair permed?"
Mandy(me)- "Why no...it's natural."
Lady at the store- *looks impressed* walks away.
Mandy(me)- *smiles with contentment.*

my name is mandy today
My today.(see below.)
We went on a picnic. Yes, a picnic. And i loved it. Packed a little red crate with yummo and hopped in the car down to the park to meet ria. It was rather smashing.
Afterward, bell and i walked around town. We didn't even know where we were going. Pointlessly roaming i guess.*smile*
(Note: my skirt blew up walking across the street.)
(Note: boy in car blushed.) Oops.
Bell and i laughed all the way to the antique shop. Haha.
Hope you had a very terrific day.
Love me.♥

my head is the sun
Puppet shows. Done. And boy am i glad. My arm feel like it's been through a tsunami. Seriously. Two whole hours of holding my arm straight up.
Note: the last performance was the best. it always is.
And...
Bell blew out her candles this week. Finally. She is now officially nineteen. Good for her. I stuck them in a klondike. (After searching through the whole entire house for something to put them in.) We are practically cakeless.
I Gardened today. And i didn't enjoy it. Not in the least. Though every minute of it i was telling myself "i like this." Lying to myself didn't work. Darn.
Skype. is. love.
(most definitely.)
Tomorrow will be good.
Just cause i don't know what i'm going to do. I like days like that.
Happy week loves.
-me.
xoxo
