hellew..ive been back in b-town for 4 days now and its been snowing non stop..our balcony doors are blocked off and we cant open them. when i got back i thought i would avoid the jet lag by going to bed at the normal time and waking up at a fairly decent hour. but whatever i did made it worse because i havent been able to go to sleep before the sun comes up and then i sleep all day. and even listening to war and peace on audio book doesnt help me fall asleep. last year it took me a whole month to get through it because i always fell asleep during book 1. anyways, tomorrow will suck because i go back to work..theres no way im getting any sleep tonight. and then i have an hour walk through the snow to get to my class (usually 40 min walk but im adding on time because of the snow..which will probably be even deeper because the class is in the middle of no mans land).

my trip was fun, i didnt spend enough time in ny...i spent too much time sitting on my ass at my moms catching up on reality tv: real world marathons and jersey shore... partly because i caught the flu from her and my sister. SWEET!! i started treating it before it got as bad as they were..but i still had little energy to go for long bike rides at the beach like i wanted to. i love that town so much..even in the winter time its nice and smells like burning firewood and sea salt in the air and its not cold at all. perfect riding weather. it would have been even better to be there in the sumer though so i could have actually gone swimming in the gulf. its too bad its such a boring town with a population almost entirely of senior citizens because otherwise i would love to live there. i wonder if i ever will. as for now, as the time gets closer and closer for me to really start thinking about where i want to go to school, i think portland is still at the top of my list. even though i absolutely do not want to be in another cold location, especially one with a lot of rain...all the other things about it are good. the school i want is there, old friends are there, and theres guaranteed to be lots of people i can relate to out there. so yea we will see. thats still a while away..maybe 1.5 -2 years. actually i shouldnt speak to soon because next week i go in to try and get my visa again, and if i get rejected i might be coming back to the states a lot sooner.

i saw most everyone nearest and dearest to my heart in ny (and fl too). and over the past year and a half ive realized that those people are completely irreplaceable. it really was way too short a trip and im a moron for only scheduling 3 full days there. the trip kinda made me want to move back of course. and also ny still has a place in my heart. i just love it there. but there were a lot of things that the city didnt have that i wanted. i thought about going to school there when i come back...living there again, but i think a lot of my friends wont be living there when i come back to the states. i heard a lot of talk about moving out west in the future...san francisco, portland, back to florida, somewhere else. i guess we will see..i wish i could take all of my friends and move them to one place. now that i am back here i definitely know that i want to be here and travel some more. and hopefully ill be able to save enough money to do everything i want to do. i got a lot of good bonding time in with the fam too. i really missed them. i also enjoyed eating shit tons of vegan convenience/junk food, frozen dinners, etc..holy fuck i missed all of that shit.
anyways, i played that new game dj hero at best buy for like 2 hours with my brother and it is the shit. actually im gonna go download the songs from it right now. and poop out the whole box of cookies i ate last night while watching "cougartown" <--- somehow actually funny
