If you ever get a chance to go on a helicopter, DO IT! We took a chopper from Catalina Island back to San Pedro on the mainland and it was in all likelihood the best experience of my life. SO cool, so much fun. Plus we saw a pod of whales over the ocean.

Yesterday I did some laundry and went to the beach. I laid out for a while, talked to my mom, that sort of thing. Then I walked down to Manhattan Beach by way of beach/ocean and it was so nice…then we (JLo, B, A, me) laid out some more and played water frisbee…even though they [...]

This week has been a little crazy. You notice, I am not at work right now, as I am writing this post around noon even though it’s Friday. I also just got up about half an hour ago (sweet!).
We had a launch last night. This is my second and last launch this summer, because the [...]

So, I said I was going to walk to the bank, right? Yeah…my bank doesn’t exist here. Or anywhere in California for that matter. So I am breaking my own rule of not using the CC this summer until the direct depost kicks in, which sucks. So I will owe my parents even more money [...]
Thurs and Fri

Thursday was probably the worst day ever so far. My water bottle somehow opened in my awesome-new-intern bag and got over all my papers, purse, mp3 player, etc… So that was bad. Then I couldn’t log in for seriously 10 minutes before Andrew came to help me, and that just made things worse. Then I [...]
The Week So Far

My apologies for not updating as frequently as I’d like. Also, as a warning, I may be a little out of it in this post, since I’ve been awake since 2.30am, and it is currently about 6pm. Heh.
So the launch today was pretty cool. I had to be there at 3.30 (see previous post) which [...]

So Friday night we had this awesome bonfire on the state beach (Dockweiler) where there are loads of fire pits right by the ocean. We roasted s’mores. It was really fun. Saturday (yesterday) we all spent the whole day together. We went up to this dumpling restaurant in Arcadia, Din Tai Fung, and it was [...]
Last Night

Yesterday was a good day. At work I have almost gotten the program to work how it’s supposed to. I also got to escort some 2nd graders around the campus at this science fair. That was nice because I got to be outside for a while (there are no windows or anything in the room [...]
I’m Actually Doing Something

It’s crazy. I am writing a program, and it’s almost even working, and it’s awesome. And I still don’t know what I’m doing but it’s great anyway. Work is quite stressful at times though, in those moments of panic where it’s like, Oh, God, I don’t have an effing clue as to what I’m supposed [...]
Work and Manhattan Beach!

So work was crazy; I am not sure what I’ll be able to do versus what they want me to actually do. So that will be interesting. But it was a good day nonetheless. After work I went to Manhattan Beach Pier with my new friends! All of the people I hung out with yesterday [...]
