the fifty-first way to leave your lover

Yesterday sucked and today sucked unbelievably more. My roommate's mother just passed away, and that certainly puts things in perspective. But before that, instead of moping I swept my room and made backed mac and cheese. I think it turned out pretty well, except that I forgot the salt! But otherwise not bad.

It's been a while since I updated; things have been hectic, up and down and up and then down. Things are still down, but we'll see.

I went to go visit some old family friends last weekend in Ra'anana, and it was great! One of their daughters is about my age and we've been friends for literally ages. We only get to see each other probably twice a year, but I'm always amazed by how well we get along and how easy it is to fall back into being friends. It helps that she's one of the sweetest, most easy-going people I know. Anyway, I had a great time.

Last night I went to see Avatar (for the third time, mind you) with my...third cousin once removed? I have no idea. My mom says we aren't even related really but it was still fun. It was my first time meeting him! I cried in the movie AGAIN. Honestly, there is something about the movie, and the animation and the music (my god the music) that gets to me every time! I can't help it. This was my second time seeing it in 3D and I have to be honest, I was still underwhelmed! 3D should be awesome and exciting but this was just...blah! They didn't do anything special with it, it was just the same movie but it looked a little weirder and my eyes hurt a little. So disappointing James Cameron. But that movie remains one of my favorites.

I think that's about it for now. I need to go lose myself in Melrose Place. And yes I know it's terrible. And yes, I was really only watching it for Ashlee Simpson's crazy. But now I almost like it! Almost.
