Rose - I had an awesome time with my sister and brother in San Francisco for my sis's birthday. My sister LOVED her present - a necklace from tiffany's. We took her to the store, had her try it on because "I thought it was cute", and then said happy birthday!
Bud - I'm really looking forward to getting back to school.
Thorns - My boyfriend didn't get to come up this weekend (he goes to USC and they started back in August) because gas was so expensive and his professors piled work on him. I don't get to see him till October now because I'll be so busy with rush prep/rush itself.
Rose and Thorn - I'm taking care of my brother and sister while my parents are in Europe and man is it hard! Getting healthy dinner on the table, making sure the house is clean, waking up at 5 am to take my brother to water polo practice, rides to and from school, etc. All this while still working my full time job. I don't know how my parents do it!
