“There is an old proverb that says you can’t choose your family. You take what the fates hand you and like them or not, love them or not, understand them or not, you cope. Then there’s the school of thought that says the family you’re born into is simply a starting point. They feed you and clothe you and take care of you until you are ready to go out into the world and find your tribe” — Grey’s Anatomy - 2×12

Somewhere away from all the downtown madness, my friend and her husband have got this little cozy cute apartment where they literally made almost every piece of their furniture, from the library, to the sofa, their bed, everything…just like the way they stood up for their relationship and it finally worked out , and it worked beautifully.

It was a fun night. We cooked, we ate, we gossiped, we talked about him, about that other guy, about this sickening “being famous” fever that has become somewhat epidemic lately among everyone we know,  we went through the wedding pictures, watched “Age of Innocence”, and before I knew, it was 3 a.m and we fell asleep. I got back home in the morning and ever since, thoughts just flash inside my head, one after the other. I’ve been a mess. I could not concentrate on phonology today, I have had this killing headache since I woke up this morning and I’m just…down today and I need to get out of this mood because I have a lot to study for the exams. Did I mention I am so in the mood for listening to “Unbreakable” tonight?

So, the bad news…I finally got a call from the new office. Apparently, they are revamping the new office and transferring our section to a new floor, so I should start there no sooner than another twenty-so days, and damn, I am bored of my mind already and really need some cash. I should find a way to earn some until then.

The good news is, I will have plenty of time to study for my exams and by the time I start the job, I am already done and over with the the summer course. That’s a relief, because I have not studied a page yet due to my obvious unsteady thoughts and a slight depression. Tomorrow, I have to start studying though. I need good grades to raise my overall grades a little bit to finally get an A.

Right now, I am finally getting ready to go to one of my bestest friends house and spend tonight there since her hobby is out of town for a while. A girl night…should be fun. Did I mention that I am so enjoying the Daughtry album I finally downloaded? He rocks! “Home”is certainly one of my favorite songs, and “Over You”…what can I say? It’s the story of my life. So, maybe…just maybe…I’m not over him yet, not as much as I like to think so.

Did you watch the U.S. vs. China basketball game? WOW! That was magical, a completely redeemed team, and it seemed all every time they touched the ball, in blinking of an eye, it was in the. China was pretty good, Yao Ming was pretty intimidating, but well, they did not stand a chance. I was pretty excited about the game I could barely sit down. They were all fine players, but James was completely my hero out there. BTW, what was all those free shots U.S. missed about?

Tomorrow the main Tennis games will start and Federer should face Tursunov, or som EuroSport says…we will see how that one will go. It’s too bad that Ana had to withdraw from the games because of her thumb injury. She is absolutely my favorite player, so I am putting my hopes in Federer now. My off time is coming to an end and I am supposed to go back to work some time this week and strangely enough, I am damn happy about it! I can hardly wait until I get that call from the manager office to tell me when exactly I can start over there. I never thought I would miss it this much. I am practically climbing the walls here. I have a feeling I am on the verge of falling back to depression if I don’t start my job soon. It is almost like I have to be busy,busy,busy all the time, almost all day to keep myself from starting a self-pity party and thinking nonsense, like right now. I am going to rewatch Grey’s Anatomy again tonight. That will surely keep me from waiting. I just wish my brother would download the newer episodes sooner.
