1/2 way retrospective, 2007.

Hello solstice.  Hello half empty glass.  It's been a really great last 6 months.

January:
- I abandoned the Internets for a week in an attempt to focus on school and some competitions, which didn’t happen but worked out for the best anyhow.
- Jennifer "the hotness" Chapton appeared on American idol and made a fool of herself.  This unknowingly brings a community of people together to laugh at her stupid ass.  I reconnected with so many people that month!
- I find the perfect sketchbook, Cachet 8x11, 212 pages, made in England, widescreen format and perfect for two rows of my 2" tall ladies for maximum fashion!

February:
- I don't get the gap internship. Not surprised.
- Milo, our family pet of 15 years passes away.
- Rather unexpectedly my godfather Larry Powers dies.
- I realize we have 6 jars of peanut butter; all but one has been opened.
- I make the mistake of buying the burning crusade expansion for Word of Warcraft.

March:
- I become obsessed with day of the dead and fail to complete yet another competition.
- I also become obsessed with matzo ball soup and almond flavored macaroons.
- My first interview for my first internship.
- Beefy comes to visit! And I join the Mediocre Tour for the California leg of the tour.
- Jones and x-tine fiasco.
- I plant my first seeds, poppies that is and a hollyhock.

April:
- I join the IMBC and begin bloggin everyday.
- The first annual junior review for CCA's fashion department.  Not helpful, but I was highly praised so how was it bad?
- I saw super bum.
- I began reading for fun again.
- I get conceptual with it and make garbage bag eveningwear.
- My e-bay and other online spend gets out of control.
- Matt gets accepted to UC Berkeley with full ride scholarship.
- RATM gets back together.

May:
- Class is over for the summer, and I finish all finals on time!
- X-tine and I are officially not friends, and she still didn’t return my copy of the Delta Venus. Grrr.
- Hired by zafu.com for part time help, currently the most I have ever been paid at $14/hr.
- Finally read a wrinkle in time, and it’s sequel a wind in the door.
- I get a new digital camera.
- I fall in love with battlestar galactica.
- I go to the Tri-Cities for a visit.
- I get a car.

June:
- Matt and I make the long 20-hour drive down the scenic 101 back to Oakland.
- My poppies start blooming!
- Introduce my family to Skype and video chat with them for the first time.

    That is it I think.  If I left anything out it’s not because I didn’t consider it important, I probably just forgot, or didn’t consider it important enough to note.  Lol!  This is a rad link, I rofled.
