sbiff

nancy and i were downtown yesterday
to kind of get a scope of this year's
santa barbara international film festival,
hoping to score some free tickets from
some elderly couple who were sick of watching
movies or something..

anyway, we went to get some crepes
and got to talking with these elderly sisters
who were in sb for the film festival
along with a huge group of other seniors.

after conversing with them
i told nancy that when we're sixty,
we have to meet up again in santa barbara
and go to the film festival.

then i got to thinking about my aunt
and how if she was still with us
i could thoroughly imagine her doing something like that..
travelling and doing cool things like attending film festivals
even at an old age...

it's still really strange
knowing that i'm not going to see her anymore
i feel like i still owe her so much for everything she did for me.

knocking at my door

At around 2:30,
Amanda texts me telling me that she's studying in Caje
and that there is a cute man sitting next to her
reading the bible and that i should marry him.
I was already thinking about studying there,
so i head over and sit with her.
I read 'Meeting Jesus again for the First Time'
for my religious studies class.
Next to Amanda is this guy immersed in his study bible,
and next to me is a couple talking about the book of Deuteronomy.
Across from us sits two guys talking about their spiritual lives.
Four separate parties
all connected by one God,
whether it be for personal or academic purposes,
I still felt His presence there.

boy crazy

i wish it wasn't like that.
I wish i didn't have so many high hopes
just to have them shot down.

Weights

I got into stats!
A huge burden has been lifted from me.
I don't have to take summer school
(unless i fail this)
but i kind of want to stay here..
We got a place to live for next year,
it's right across the street
and at least 100$ cheaper a month.
God really does provide.
Maybe this means I'll be getting the job at caje??
We will see.

Cops

"don't sit on the curb, you'll get arrested..
"don't worry, they can't see me behind this car.
Oh kristen,
i should listen to what you say.
Thank God there was a girl stupider than me
with a red cup in her hand.

Part Time

Psychology 5:
Introductory Statistics.
You're making my life miserable.
Not because your content is too difficult,
no,
because I'm currently attending these classes
without being enrolled in it.
I'm doing the reading, doing the homework.
I need this class.
Without it,
I'm not a full time student,
I won't be able to take Psych7 next quarter,
I'll have to take summer school,
meaning I won't be able to go home at all.
Please. This is killing me.
I'm stressed out and it's so ridiculous
the only thing i can do is wait.
I feel so helpless.
