i just signed up for my classes yesterday!
so starting august, i'll be taking :

  1. AP english III (but i think im dropping the AP)
  2. pre-AP chemistry (isn't tht weird? they have pre-AP here)
  3. pre-cal
  4. french III
  5. advertising and marketing
  6. dance
  7. & then im dropping 2 periods so i can go home early (:
so instead of 8 classes, im only taking 6. but i registered for ACC though! so i'll be taking a 2 hour us history college class on mondays & wednesdays for 1 semster, & i'll be taking a distance learning geography 1301 class. im soo not excited about the distance learning class. im not a motivated person at alllllll. so idk how im gonna be able to sit at a computer, doing assignments & emailing my professor & stuff. can u even see me doing that?
because i definitely cant!





anyways, someone asked whats been going on in the guy department?


nothing exciting or interesting.
just random hookups & stuff like that.
but NO RELATIONSHIPS (:


ohh, did i ever tell you guys what i decided?






i decided that i won't date anyone till im 18!










yesyesyes.
i've decided that relationships are just wayy too difficult, & too much of a hassle.

hookups work fine for me.


& above all that,
IM TOO YOUNG TO DATE!



hahaha.
so yes. thats my decision,
& i won't bend the rule, except for a seth cohen.

or a ryan, but thats totally impossible.


arn't you guys proud of me?

luke told me that im crazy,
& devra said that i'll break it in 2 weeks.


have some faith!


sean even made a bet with me about it.
hah. i'll prove him wrong.

(:



all my love,
Rachael

sebas got a screen shot of the first picture when i was showing off my watermelon, that i cut into hearts (:
(dad made me cut the watermelon, so i cut 'em into hearts & diamonds & circles)

i was waving it around & everything. haha
it was gorgeous!
but then i ate it ..



& jasmine took the second one when she told me to pose & take a screenshot,
& i gave her that face.

haha.

(notice my nails are painted on one hand, & not on the other.
ahaha. i still havnt got to tthe other hand yet ..)



anyways, im about to head to ikea to get new furniture,
but i'll blog about my train trip when i get back!


& im in like a super dilemma,
of how i should wear my hair on the first day of school.

straight, or wavy.

i'll post pics when i get back so you guys can help me decide (:

This is for Sean.
Since hes anxious for the pictures.

But this was from my going away party!
The pictures are really sucky because everyone left & got kicked out & its only me & devra in most of it.

But the pictures show the best part of the night!

When Gill got kicked out!
Someone even took a picture of her face after Devra yelled at her.
It was awesome.



So we convinced Alex to let us throw a party at his apartment & invite a bunch of Sophomores (which he wasn't too happy about ..) it wasn't a big thing though, he only let us invite 15 people.


It was still fun though (:




Alex took a busch ice box & tore a hole in it & put it on my head.
& they called me ice queen for the night.
& i wore it alllllllll night!
this was like wayyyyyyyy after everyone left & i still had it on.
hahaha.





Anyways, so the whole Gill thing started when she walked in at like 10,
& we were playing trapped (so most of us were already drunk & you don't want to get drunks pissed).
So she walked in like she owned the place, & didn't buy cups.
(ps: she didnt even know anyone there besides me kat & rachel)

So when Andreas asked her why she didn't buy cups, she said: "Oh, if i bought cups then i wouldnt have to pay for beer."


yeah, no.
a thing of cups are like $3?


so then, she said: "Oh well, i only drink coors light. Its sooo good. All the other beers taste like shit."


again, nooooooo.
coors light tastes like ass!
& its my party! if u don't want to drink my beer then don't drink at all.







omg. im getting pissed just typing this.






so we went out to do a beer run FOR HER to get her stupid coors light.
& i asked her if she wanted anything else, but she said no.

so we went & got her shit,
& came back, & we started a new round of trapped with gill rach & kat.


so we were like everyone knows how to play?
& everyone was like yeah.

so everyone went & got their beer or whatever they were going to drink for the game,
& she went into the fridge & got my smirnoff!

like who fucking drinks smirnoff when you're playing a drinking game?!



smirnoff is for when you feel like you're about to throw up, or after you throw up.
but she drank the fucking smirnoff when we were playing trapped.
(plus she didnt even know how to play. she was like "oh! its just like craps!" yeah, not really. craps is like an old grandpa game.)


so after trapped, we played fuck the dealer.
& she went into the fridge & took 2 of my smirnoffs!


that just pissed me off.


we only got a 6-pack of smirnoff, & me & stacey were gonna split 3 each after everyone left.
but she took 3!

so i told her to put them back, & she was like "no. i want to drink this."
but i just went & grabbed it out of her hands,
so she drank her coors light when we played fuck the dealer.


& she kept complaining that she cant drink beer while playing drinking games ..
like thats the whole fucking point.

she just annoyed the hell out of everyone.


fuck the dealer!
im really good at guessing the cards (:
but obviously A was the dealer, & he got fucked.



....
so then a bunch of us went outside to smoke, & she went outside & told us that we cant smoke while shes there because shes gonna breathe in the secondhand smoke.

but we were outside ..
thts the whole point.



ughhh. its making me sooo mad.
i should've slapped her across the face that night!



anyways, u guys porbably arn't interested in hearing the whole story,
but long story short, she just kept annoying everyone.


ok. so towards the end, alex said that none of our friends could sleepover, but rachel drank so she couldnt drive them home & they were going to spend the night.

but thennnnn, devra went to smoke, & gill yelled at her & said that shes there so she cant smoke.

so devra got pissed & went inside & yelled:
"this isn't your fucking house, so get the fuck out!"


& her face was like this -

& she didnt even say anythingg!
she just like looked away & stared into space.
& then they got up & left (:

haha. yayyy
yup. so thats the end of the story.

its weird though, Gill was always cool when we used to go to parties together.
idk why she was such a bitch that night ..





random ones.
most of them after gill left.







i still had my ice queen hat on!
lol.
i look like shit.


its really bad.
i always turn bright red & my eyes get all bloodshot whenever i drink.

it only happens to me though!
i think it must be an asian thing.


Andreas.




& i look like shit in the rest of them:


when we were about to sleeppppp





alex & stacey switched clothes!
Alex was wearing stacey's shorts & they were like superly short.



yeah, thats it.
wasn't that great of a party looking back at it now.

actually, it wasnt good at all!
i think i deserve another one.


10:05 AM


so, i just vanished for like a month ..

without anyone knowing what i was doing, where i was going.
so i decided, i'll have like a super picture post,
to update u guys a little.

pictures do speak louder than words anyways.
waitttttttt. no. that phrase is actions speak louder than words.
then whats that phrase about the pictures & words?

hmm. nvm, my brain's not working today,
its too damn early.

when i rememeber the phrase, i'll edit this post so it makes more sense.




in no particular order:

sitting in lowes parking lot at like 1 in the morning.

why?
because we have no life.


but then the store manager came out & kicked us out for 'soliciting'
so we went to dj's







alright. this is really random,
but i think its really funny.

so dad has a peach tree & a pear tree in our backyard (well, our backyard in greensboro)
& hes like obsessed over them.


but all his trees are messed up -
the branches wont stay straight & it like leans over.


& the same thing happened to his peach tree!
the branches like touch the ground!

its hilarious.






4th of july:

we drove to raleigh to say bye to my cousins before leaving for texas,
(we're not really cousins. we're like 4th cousins or something. like my mom & sarah's dad are cousins, so .. idk, we're related somehow, but pretty far off on the family tree.)
& we did the usual -
play monopoly & gin (:

im super awesome at both!
but i sucked at monopoly that day though, just wasn't my day ..
Avery had to keep giving me money.









roadddtrip!

it wasn't really a roadtrip, because we didnt go anywhere specific.
we just kinda drove ..
what a waste of gas huh?








this is like my favorite thing to do everrrrr!
just driving around, singing in the car,
taking pictures.

i love it (:



yeah, stacey drive's reallyyyyy safe (:
she doesnt even look at the road!



yeah, my shitty camera sucks!
buy me a new one & you'll have better pictures (:


euro cup!

so this was obviously during ec,
when i was soo totally head over heels & obsessed with ballack,
& i wore my jersey everytime germany played ..


i love him!


& germany, of course.

Im in Texas right now!

Yesyes, i left Greensboro on the 16th, & it took us about 21 hours to drive down here. We drove for like 9 hours, & stopped at Nashville, Tennessee (is that how you spell it?) for a night, & continued driving till we got to Austin late Friday night.

& since i left, I've been glued to my cell, & like attached by the hip to my laptop, talking to all my friends like i haven't talked to them in years.
I HATE GOODBYES. It really sucks.

Looking back,
Greensboro isn't so shitty afterall ..

Its back to the old saying - "You never know what you have 'til you lose it"?
Its been proven to me time & again.

Just like how i used to hate Singapore, & how i absolutely hated Greensboro when i lived there?
Its sad, really.
Its time i started appreciating things & not whining & complaining about every little minute thing.

Well, im still like super depressed over leaving.
Not depressed enough to guilt my parents into letting me fly back to spend the rest of the summer in Greensboro though.

Afterall, i've only been here for 4 days?

I miss Greensboro already!
(notice i'm starting to call it GREENSboro instead of SHITSboro?)
The last week before i left was absolutely perfecttt!
My going away party, me & stacey's train trip, & the party that ryan threw for meeee!

Ahhh. I miss my friends!

Thats probably the hardest part of moving. If i had no friends, it'll probably be really easy to move. But the fact that i left my friends, & that i have to start all over again, & knowing that i have no friends & no life now, just makes it that much harder.

I cried for like 2 hours in the car, as soon as we passed the - "You are now leaving the City of Greensboro." sign.

Ugh.


Well, i'll get over it eventually.
I always do.

& the good news is ..
I've decided to start blogging again!

Not immediately, bc im in the midst of unpacking, & its pratically box city here with boxes everywhere.

But after i have a couple of them cleared away, i'll post pictures of the last couple of weeks, & fill you guys in about my awesomeeeee party!

& my Seth Cohen!
(you'll get it whenever i blog about it.)

But until then, just hope that i make awesome friends & get my life back as soon as possible! Because i feel like a total loserrrrrr now.



SUMMER SUNSHINE?
RACHAEL - dont forget that name, its gonna be famous someday.
its the perfection that i envy,
& the image that im chasing,
thats holding me back.

what if everything i told you were all lies?

basically, im anything but ordinary.
