When I woke up this morning the sun was shining so brightly on my bed. It’s really summer. I love summer! So excited to go to the beach, and to have parties and to go camping and do all the things I love to do in summer.

I had to hurry to get to my doctor’s appt, since mom was in the shower before me. I got there quickly and only riding the elevator incorrectly once. I hopped in there, some poor man nearly severing his arm in attempting to hold it open for me. Thinking back on it, that man may have been a woman. In fact I think it was. I stood in front the directory on the second floor for a moment, pretending to gather my bearings, but really I was just waiting for the doors to close on the lady who stayed in the elevator so she wouldn’t realize I needed to get back in and go back down to the first floor.

I’m ok with my doctor, I didn’t agree with her on a few things but all in all she seemed to know her stuff. Here’s for stepping into adulthood. For once I was able to tell my doctor that I’m excercising regularly, that’s awesome! Thanks sister.

After all that I stopped by Victoria’s secret for their annual (or is it semi annual) sale and treated myself to some “happy birthday” (new chonies) yay! Then I rushed home to go have lunch. We took grandma and grandpa out with us to Todai’s to celebrate the day of my birth. I wanted to go there because first of all, duh, it’s amazing food! All you can eat Japanese, yes please! And secondly, when you go on your birthday you get a coupon for a free lunch. It was all that I was expecting. Love food.

I was debating rushing off to try and get some shoes at the Westside Pavilion today and of course visiting my love behind the BB counter, but I figured I’d be too rushed with trying to get back in time for sam’s graduation. Walking beside my 80+ year old grandpa today reminded me that life is not to be rushed. John is always trying to slow me down, I have this hurry mentality within every fiber of my being. Some people were calmly waiting for us to pass, while others became so irritated. Why the hurry, I thought? I know too the well the being rushed, but I also understand the value of pause, especially through holding the hand of one of my grandparents.

Tonight is going to be awesome, hurrahing for Sam the Valedictorian and bowling for 24. Woot.
