Don't you [let me] forget it. Well so far there has been the expected ups and downs along with the occasional slaps in the face. But I remain optimistic... I believe in retrospect this will be a valuable test of patience and determination. But, you know what: I knew this would be hard... you knew this would be hard. Lets talk about something different.

I went for a swim the other day. You know when you eat too much ice cream, and the front of your brain starts to sting with a sharp cold numbing sensation? Well, diving in the second time was less shocking than the first, but my eyes were closed because I still had my contacts in, and so I was running my hand along the bottom to feel where I was at in the pool. It was starting to slope upwards and I knew I was almost to the opposite wall when my forehead began to feel considerably colder than the rest of my body. Almost there... then came the cold burn. Any second... the ice water rushed across my head harder as I kicked faster to reach the end sooner, it was almost unbearably freezing. I was ready to break any second. Then: Yes! The wall - I jumped out of the pool and clutched my forehead with both hands. Thank God the California sun was beaming down in the backyard, it was my only saving grace. Hmm... I was considering erasing this pointless story, but I'll leave it just because I can.

I have an interview Monday morning in Santa Monica for an internship at Blackbox digital. I'm trying not to get my hopes up, actually - I probably shouldn't even be mentioning it just yet. Chances are: It won't be that easy. I need to be prepared to go through fifty interviews with no sign of luck. But there's always a chance I guess.

Well, I keep writing paragraphs of crap and then erasing them. So, I think I'm feeling a little too groggy to be writing an entry right about now. It must be past my bed time. "Till that day".

Actually before I sign off. I need to post this because I find it extremely funny, especially with all the republicans hard balling Kerry for being too "wish'y washy". I love facts like these... they are so easy to fotget. Enjoy.
