Yup. Summer arrived long ago. And yup, summer has set in legitamately. I'm lucky enough to be working almost every day while enjoying what I do at both of my jobs. I 'work' with some great, inspiring, admirable people, who not only keep me going each day but make every day fun and enjoyable. And during the summer that's enough. But that's not all. I get to schedule fun times with my friends, like going to free campus shows in the evening with my friend Sara, while watching a fellow Wichita-er Chris strut his stuff as an imaginary superhero on stage. I get to chat with people like April Bryan during the orientation Involvement Zone, while she shares her passion and knowledge about the majestic place not far from hear--East Campus. I get treated by a bestie who not only ensures that I get my much-loved dosage of fruits and veggies, but also my ever-important dosage of chocolate (Thanks, Rory!) I get lovely photo tags from my girl Kristina, who travels to far-off places and thinks of me while she's there. And I get to look forward to the hospitality of Jill White, who will be housing me Thursday night AND driving me to Grand Rapids for a day of shopping fun, followed by an airport venture to the land of NoDak (aka North Dakota, for those of you who have never heard of the most obscure of the fifty states).
All of this makes these past few days some of the best--not because they have been so memorable but actually for the opposite--because I am allowed to let such memories fade away into this span of time I'd like to call 'Summer 2010.' The Summer of the Traveling Ali. It's nice to take these reflective moments (at work, nonetheless...) to appreciate everything in my life, right at this moment in time. I'm about to appreciate everything that much more starting Friday. I'm so looking forward to the hugs awaiting me when I land in Bismarck air port at 8:30 pm. My fingers are crossed for three waiting faces peering through the glass as I walk through the long tunnel to the terminal, dragging my suitcase all the way. And then, after the long drive back home, regardless of the hour, I expect a complete ruckus back at home--two spoiled-rotten dogs, bounding and leaping, tongues lapping, tails/nubs wagging, and paws clawing my legs as my pups welcome me home. But wait--I didn't mention the chatter. Allll the way home (or maybe just part of the way home; it's a 1.5 hour drive...) I will probably be chatting away to Mom, Dad, and Jonah, with hopefully quite a bit of chatter coming back at me. If Zach were there, he would be the exception, but his quiet persona will be away at Interlochen, where he is right now, playing his clarinet and making music while perfect his already-superior technique. (I'll see you soon, Zach!)
Oh summer, how I love you! I capture summertime to last throughout the rest of the year...

Too Busy Living Life to Blog Lately
It's pretty funny when I realize that it's been awhile since I've last blogged, but I didn't realize that it had been FOUR DAYS! Haha, not really a big deal, just worth a little chuckle.
I'm gonna try doing a backwords re-count of my past four days...haha I'm gonna need some luck with this one, considering my memory skills...
This should be easy to start out with...I'm blogging right now in the Siedschlag lounge, sitting at a table with Rory across from me (he's working on coding homework for his summer class). There is a lovely breeze coming through the open window next to me (which is annoying Rory, but I'm absolutely loving this breeze right now! I'm considering a nice walk in a bit because the sunshine is out, too!) Awhile ago we had a legitamate Sunday dinner--a pasta bake (from a box of course!) with green beans. Pretty yummy, if I do say so myself! Rory had been working all afternoon and I had been doing laundry. I had been waiting awhile to get enough dirty clothes for two loads of laundry, but today was the last day I could wait since I have to wear my Bronco Bash t-shirts for the last mandatory shirt selling days this week.
There was some excitement earlier today because of a tornado warning. No real action other than some crazy lightning, wind, and rain. I was helping Adam take his stuff to his car earlier and that was during the worst of the downpour, so I was pretty much soaked through. No worries, I'm all dry now and it was pretty hilarious running in the rain, crossing the river (aka the street). Good times...
But yeah, Adam visited this weekend. We watched some soccer this morning. Not too much else but last night was fun because Rory, Adam, Josh Kohnert, and I hung out. My favorite was when midnight hit, and we were all being ridiculous while playing cards! Gotta love summer!
Saturday afternoon I had gone to Cyndee's graduation party--she graduated from grad school at Western! Woo hoo, congrats Cyndee! I went with April and her Mom Dolly and her Mom's boyfriend Bob. They are such wonderful people, and I ate some delicious food in great company! I even learned a new game called washer toss, which I ended up winning with my partner at the party! (I'm definitely considering setting up a version of this game for Jonah! I think he would love it!)
Saturday morning I did a lot of chillin out because it was another late night the night before--that was when we had a semi-Gorgon reunion! Katie Ragan, Adam, Rory, Kristina, and Allie all went put-putt golfing with me! It was soooo much fun, especially when we followed putt-putt with arcade time, and I beat both Rory and Katie at air hockey (Adam was too good though....) We had some break-up cake for Adam which was delicious, and watched the movie Up and other random TV until really late. Earlier on Friday we had eaten out at a Pizza Hut/Wing Street, and Drew had joined us, which was really fun! (Luckily he came to eat up all of my onion rings and to hook me up with the salad that I wanted SOOO bad!) I was a little jealous because he was heading to hang out with my Wichi-whats! from ASB, but I will hopefully see them all some time soon so that we can all hang out!
And that brings me to Friday during the day...What did I do? Hmmm...not a whole lot. I got my mattress finally! SOOOO comfortable and so good to know that I have a sleeping-place secured!
I chatted with my mom on the phone yesterday, which was pretty awesome! Lots of talk about when I come home which is only a few days away! Hopefully everyone can come to the airport in Bismarck to get me--that would be AWESOME! Zach of course will be at Interlochen, so I wouldn't be expecting him, but he just got there yesterday, so hopefully he is already having a blast!
Ok, well that just about wraps it all up. I guess I can add in the fact that I got to see both Beth and Rory on Thursday, and we all had a grand time at the Orientation Involvement Zone. Those two totally spoiled me by buying me Ben & Jerry's ice cream, which I ate while watching Year One with them. Rory even bought me CHOCOLATE yesterday at the store! I can't wait to bust it open!
Only a couple more blogs until I'm home! YAY! <3

Wet Socks
Yes, my socks are wet. Thanks to the torrential downpour that started when I stepped out the door this morning, on my way to the Writing Center. Yup, rain, thunder, lightning, the whole deal. Thunderstorm. And the thunder part was so loud, my heart was beating fast and I felt...fear? Haha, it sounds silly, but ya had to be there. It's a short walk from Elmwood to Moore Hall, but it sure seemed pretty far this morning! The wind was pretty bad, too, considering my umbrella was blowing all around. It was ridiculous.
But yeah, I left pretty early to go to work this morning. I mean, I was all ready, so why not just chill at the WC, right? Come to find out no one was there yet, so I chilled outside the WC (in a chair in the building, no worries). John came later and opened up the WC--I guess the key was just upstairs--oops. It's ok, I played around with my iTouch. Yesterday while selling t-shirts, Kristen reminded me that my awesome iTouch has INTERNET ACCESS with APPS! Haha, I've been downloading crazy free apps since I had this realization! There are some pretty funny ones....like Air Horn, Dating 101 and Toy Story 3 (hasn't finished loading, I'll let y'all know how it is!) It's a good time. We work hard, us Bronco Bash staffers.
Other than the excitements of today, yesterday was fairly average. It was kinda just like my Monday because I picked up some hours at the Writing Center covering for Shannon. Good times. After work, Sara made us PANCAKES! I've been wanting pancakes for awhile now and it was a completely wonderful surprise!
Yesterday I tried to make it a mission to take lots of random pictures because this summer has been pretty void of pictures taken from me...I did an ok job, I should prob put those on FB today... Maybe I'll be better at taking pics in the future. Today I'm going over to visit Ben, Amber, and baby Adrian, so that should be tons of fun! Right after work, I'm heading on over!
Oh and quick recap of Monday evening--Sara and I went to the Cab show! It was SO great, I don't even remember the show being that great at my orientation! After the show, Sara and I watched Toy Story because she's going to see the third movie on Saturday (kinda jealous--hopefully I'll get to see it with Jonah when I go home!) TV time last night consisted of Hell's Kitchen--yeeee-uh--but I totally missed part of it because apparently it started at 8 and not 9. Oops. Oh well, it was two hours long.
And now...guess where I'm at??? The Writing Center!!! Haha, story of my life lately. Loooove it!

Technology Society
I will say this but probably not live by it: Us humans are way too dependent on technology. This has been brought to my attention thanks to a book I'm reading, a friend's situation, and my own recent observations of myself and others. Think about this (the following conclustions sparked from the book Rebuilt by Michael Chorost): Years ago, air conditioning and television did not exist. What did people do with their spare time? They sat on their porches or in their driveways, chatting with neighbors, telling stories, and just hanging out and enjoying the weather. No A/C to lock you indoors to 'conserve' the cold air blowing around. No TV to sit in front of, giving you another excuse to stay inside and to NOT socialize. It really makes sense.
Then there's my good friend April, who works at the Writing Center with me. She left her cell phone at home today and is LOVING it! I couldn't wrap my mind around it for a second--wait--left your cell at home?! But then I thought, "Who would REALLY need to call or contact me anyway?" I mean, for one day it wouldn't hurt. I might have to try it soon. No promises, but it would probably be good for me (although I would probably need a watch to make up for not having the time on me).
And then there's my observations. Nothin to do at this exact moment? Turn on the TV and see what's on. Nothin good? Oh well, just settle for this show, and something will come on eventually. I like the idea of going outside and soaking up the sun (with SPF 50 sunblock!) and reading a book much better. Or taking a lovely walk. Or making plans. It's just appealing. And less technology-dependent.
But that's just my two-cents.
On Saturday I DID see Katie Ragan AND I got a mattress for my lovely bunk bed that I'll be sharing with Tara in the fall. It was a great adventure, which even included a free rolly chair for me, yummy pizza, and a viewing of the original Toy Story. Good fun. (Now Katie is in San Diego--JEALOUS!!!)
Sunday was pretty fantastic, too. I got up, saw the sunshine and decided to enjoy it. I meandered my way to the track mid-morning (I slept in a little). I did a bit stress-free running/walking and then meandered my way back to Sara's apartment. I spent some time reading and lounging outside, called the fam (Happy Father's Day to my Daddy!), and nibbled here and there. Sara and I watched The Next Food Network Star (LOOOOVE it!). And that was my Sunday!
Today was interesting because I got to go to the Western Herald to look for old Bronco Bash logos in past issues. The 'morgue' is an interesting place...a room of old...newspapers! Imagine that!
Tshirt selling was simply wonderful (haha), and our weekly Monday meeting was pretty extensive (deadlines and to-dos are creeping closer for Bash!) OH! Guess who showed up today?! KRISTINA REESE! It was great! I saw her and gave her a GIANT HUG! I'm so glad because I'll get to see her again on Saturday (with Matt K, Adam, Rory, and Allie, too!)
Now I'm finishing up my Writing Center shift. I may or may not be motivated to do something this evening after work. It's supposed to storm, so that may be entertainment in itself.

Summin up my summer-y weekend
Memory issues...I dunno if it's from all the sugar I've had or what...
Wednesday was a Writing Center work day and then a fun movie day with Sara and her friend Amanda. Sara cooked us a feast of Shake n Bake and corn and baked potatoes. VERY yummy!
Thursday was t-shirt sales, Writing Center, and then chill time with Sara.
And then yesterday was Bronco Bash special meeting day--bands were on the mind for sure! No final decisions yet though...
I went shopping with Allie and Sara at Meijer and then hung out with Allie, Rory, and TARA BELL at Tara's house! It was fantastic! We helped with Tara's sister's grad party stuff, making delicious dirt cake and stuff! Then we had burgers, which were delicious! And then Tara drove Rory and I back to campus in a STORM! Complete with 75 mph winds, torrential rain, thunder, lightning, and HAIL! Very scary, but we survived with Tara's skilled driving!
The girl's lock-in night began shortly after I arrived back at Sara's, and Ali B. and Michelle had already arrived. We chatted, and ate lots of cookies, cupcakes and chocolate cheesecake all night. It was great. Scattegories, cards, and a movie were also on the agenda. AND a late-night walk, in which we saw lightning bugs, a tree that had gotten struck by lightning, AND we deduced that 'pudding can get you STD's.' (Haha, ask Michelle about that one...)
Good times with great friends. We woke up this morning and got donuts at Sweetwater's (very good, but now my stomach is sooooo full!) Now Sara and I are chillin at the library, gettin our internet on.
I GET TO SEE KATIE RAGAN LATERRRRR!!!

Happy Day!
Yayyyyy! I'm back on track with thesis attempt #1,000,000! Haha, just kidding, but really, I'm excited with this new direction my thesis will (hopefully) be taking! I had a meeting this morning before work, and it boosted my mood for sure!
It's really weird outside because it's supposed to rain, and there are clouds AND sunshine AND occasional rain drops AND a breeze. Very indecisive, if you ask me! I'm wearing a sun dress and it will STAY that way, thank you very much! (Haven't quite decided whether or not I'm sticking with my sunglasses, but I can adapt with that.)
This morning I got up pretty early (my alarm actually woke me up for once!), and I headed to the SOC for breakfast because I left my mug and my cereal there yesterday! I figured it doesn't matter too much because I'll need it there tomorrow morning for breakfast; I'll just need to remember to bring it to the apartment tomorrow so that I can have breakfast this weekend! (I can't go without my morning cup of tea!)
Yesterday was pretty average. Office hours and t-shirt sales. I got info on residency for tuition purposes. I have questions about it, though, so that's definitely not a done deal. I watched Hell's Kitchen (TWO EPISODES!) with my wonderful temporary roomie Sara. We also watched Obama address the nation about the oil spill. I thought the majority of his speech was good stuff and informative, but the end got kind of cliche and religious. I'm glad we tuned in for it.
I feel like Monday evening wasn't too eventful...watched TV...read more of The Time Traveler's Wife...I should be done with that soon, maybe today! I keep reading huge chunks of it in the evenings, so soon enough I'll be done and will need a new book--maybe from Allie--and I'll also need to watch the movie.
Oh and update: I have not yet stumbled upon a solution to my box spring/mattress/bed topper solution. Kohl's has some nice stuff to cushion the box spring that I saw online...might need to make a trip there. I keep checking Craigs List, too.
OH! And I checked my email a bit ago, and I got a free pizza coupon because my name is Brandy, and it's my birthday! Awesome, right?! And it's from Eribelli's! Delicious!

That was fast...
So. Today is blogging day. Who knew?! Haha, I thought I blogged yesterday... Nope. Guess not.
On Saturday, the adventure at Jill's was pretty great! We ate spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread! We watched good ol made-for-tv Disney movies (SOO cheesey but SOO good!). And we ate peach cobbler! I ate WAY too much! Haha, it was great fun, and we chit chatted a whole lot.
Sunday I tried to sleep in (fail...), did laundry and packed, and then...sat on my butt for awhile. Exciting, I know. Allie and Jon got back from camping and after they washed up (ewww, camping B.O.! Haha, just kiddin!), we packed up and headed to Allie's family's reunion. That was WAY fun because of course her family is spectacular and super-nice. I ate more great food, too!
Next stop was campus to dump my stuff at Sara's, pick her up, and shop at Meijer. Grocery shop, of course. I watched Next Food Network Star that evening and then called it a night.
Then today...woke up WAY early again. Bronco Bash office hours were spent logging band submissions (yay!). I ate cereal in the SOC, thanks to Aunt Cheri giving me a box of cereal! T-shirt sales were extra-fun, jamming out to Iryna's awesome cd's. I ate Pez, too. It was great.
Now I'm at the Writing Center. WOOO HOOOO! I'm kind of interested in looking for a legit mattress. Cuz the one that came with my bunk bed is a box spring. NOT a mattress! Hmmmm...
Peace.
