Last week I helped Amanda move to Jacksonville… It wasn’t something I was very happy about doing, but it had to be done… Her apartment seems really nice, big bedroom, mature roommate… Glad things are working out for her, just wish she didn’t have to be so far away! This week has been really long without her to lean on…
Well… after helping her move, Dmitri and I drove to Gainesville. We dropped Vaska off at Dmitri’s parent’s house, and then headed off to see my second best friend Patti. Yes, my second best friend, it is a long story to explain why she doesn’t quiet top the list (of course, she is a very close second), so I’ll save that for another time… Anyway, when we met up with Patti, she, along with the entire University of Florida dentistry school, were attending a BBQ at a lake right outside Gainesville. They had quite a few events, including a raffle for mp3 players, dvd players, and even a flat screen TV! Well, I was only 10 tickets (out of thousands) away from being the big winner and walking away with that flat screen TV! I was completely bummed about being so close, yet so far from absolute glory… After the BBQ we headed over to her place where we watched some football and just hung out… Once all the good games were over, we went to what I think is the best restaurant in Gainesville, and then we went to see the movie “Open Season” (which I recommend if you like animated films)… My only regret about the whole weekend is that short time I was there… I got there late Saturday afternoon and had to leave first thing on Sunday… It would have been nice to see my other Gainesville friends, it has been forever… Of course, it’d probably be weird since it’s been so long…
On another note, I finally was able to get something better than a B on a Aggarwal test! Very proud of myself, of course it is just one test, and now there is a 14 page paper and an intense program due… but at least I was able to prove to myself that I can do it, it’ll help motivate me for the final…
Lastly, but definitely not least, I was asked to be in my cousin Tara’s wedding this December, which makes me feel real special, even if it is just ushering… I am going to be the best damned usher there ever was! I am also in my sister’s wedding in July… man everyone’s getting married!
