• goodness, i am back again. I've been gone a lot lately during this summer.

  Well, went to North Dakota and Minnesota for family things, ended up being BETTER than expected. (actually, it was GREAT who'd a thought!?)

  My relatives and my family (mother and father) never really got along. We love each other, but i think only because we are family. I barely know my cousins because we always had to drive the 7 Plus hours to their house because they never came down to us. So finally, we said "screw it" and we haven't been up there except for one graduation and my grandmother's funeral 6 years ago. So basically: bad relationship. i tried e-mail, but they never responded back, so i gave up.

  But after this trip, we're significantly closer than before (which is next to nothing) and i actually enjoyed myself. We (my 5 other cousins) all hung out during the duration of the Family reunion here and there. I hope to be in contact more, which means.......................i might have to get facebook....*cries in corner* i vowed that i'd NEVER get facebook because as soon as i show up, people move to other places and i'm stuck by myself...again...But we'll see what happens. I'm proud to say that i was only bitten 5 times by those evil mosquitoes, which is significantly better than previous occasions...*goes to cry in corner about past experiences*

  OKAY, i'm back. Then we (my aunt, mother, cousin, and i) later went to the Mall of America where i bought....................................nothing. Never made it to the CD store...and i couldn't remember anything i needed anyway.

  The next day my mother and I went to St. Cloud State and toured there. Nice place. Later that night my other Aunt and Uncle came over and we all hung out at the house, i played for my aunt and showed her my china pictures. We also went to the famous Sammy's Pizza...which is really good in St. Cloud

  Next day: Went to St. Ben's and St. John's (same college, but one's women's and the other is Men's) jez, can you say almost perfect? They dont have an international Business program, which made me sad. but oh well. great orchestra, free paper and laundry and japanese and chinese. We'll see about it. oh...it took 5 hours...the whole tour... 5 HOURS. they shouldn't make it that long, but what can i say..... Anyway, yup...

  then we left there and drove over to North Dakota where we hung out with family...had grandma's 80th birthday party. Went GREAT! My parents and I decorated the very white room and it looked AWESOME! Many compliments. I met a younger girl and we hung out the whole time, saw my grandparent's neighbors. Their eldest son...nah, i wont mention him anymore. Love is a dangerous thing. had tons of fun there.

  then...we left.....*cries in corner* I wanted to stay longer, but my mom can't always handle long drives, so i drove home with her. we made it in 10 hours, which is better than expected.

  So now we're home and yet again, i woke up at 7:00AM but i got to (and am) still talking to my old friend whom i haven't chatted with in... weeks....................but its nice to say hi to him and such.

  Anyway: i'm back home! and staying! School starts soon..........so pray for me
