Baby Shower

Katie, one of my best friends from elementary school was recently married and now she is pregnant!  She is due April 20th. Anyways, I hadn't seen  her or some of my other friends that were there in a couple of years so it was really exciting to go back and see them.  Thank you boyfriend, again, for taking driving me forever away for this. You're the best <3

Waiting for a Ride

I don't have my license yet, so I usually have to wait for rides home.  it gets kind of boring, but I don't mind. Today, I was sitting next to this tree, like I usually do  and I was messing with my camera, eventually took this picture. It was kind of amusing because there was a lady who stopped off to the side to wait for me to finish. I don't really mind people walking through my pictures. I can always retake them.

Protest Banners

 Today, at school people were asking others to write something about how they feel about the price of tuition going up. "Fees have increased from $26/unit in 2010, to $36/unit now, to $46/unit starting in Summer 2012." There is also going to be a protest march in Sacramento for this reason. I went over to the banners with Theo, because he decided to write something, so I took pictures of them. It amused me that someone I know wrote  "I like turtles" on theirs. Just goes to show you how serious things are taken by certain people, I guess.

FOOD PORN!

The title of this picture was coined by my dear friend, Michael. I was showing him the picture of the dinner I had made, while at the bench, of course, and he was like "THAT LOOKS LIKE FOOD PORN!" Meaning, it looks delicious, which it does and was. The boyfriend helped me make it and it was gone in about five minutes. So proud of my pizza makin skilz. I may not know how to cook well, but I sure do know how to make scrumptious pizza out of random breads. Thank you, maja!

Niles Canyon Railway

CHUGGA CHUGGA CHOO CHOO! 

First, we went to a park, but it wasn't that great of a park. Then we went driving through the Canyon, but you can't do that forever. While driving back, the boyfriend pulled over to where he saw some trains because "it seemed like a good idea at the time." Most likely his exact words. ;]  So, we go up to where the trains were and there was a no trespassing sign on the fence, so we weren't sure if we should go in or not and there were a couple of men working on a car.  The boyfriend asked if we could look around and the guy was hesitant at first, but then after a few forms and a bit of chit chat, we were able to spend the rest of the afternoon looking at the different trains and stuff. It was really cool. All of the workers are volunteer and you could tell that they really cared about what they were doing. It was an awesome day, but we would have never have done this if it wasn't for a spur of the moment stop.

Coyote Hills

Today, the boyfriend and I went to a place called Coyote hills. It was absolutely gorgeous. The sky was bright blue (I'm a sucker for a bright blue sky). There was water (also a sucker for water). I just had an awesome time climbing to the top of the hill with Daniel. We were laughing the entire time and taking pictures of each other. The view from the top was amazing as well.  Then, when we walked back down the hill, which took a lot less time than walking UP the hill, we went to the butterfly gardens, where there were no butterflies this time of year. Took pictures while drinking from a water fountain and of a water fountain and then we walked down this pathway through the water with reeds everywhere, but pictures of that will have to wait for later because I want to improve on them and I'm already given you two today.

Simba!

This is my boyfriend's super cute, smelly dog.  He's pretty old and looks so sad. I feel really bad for him. I took a bunch of pictures of him today, but I wasn't too happy with them. This one was all right, but still not that great. I will just have to try again later.
