(ok, I hope I can articulate this message well. .. ) So after graduation and I guess during the first year of working, relationships in my life changed . . .a lot. Many people that were such a big part of my life in college were all of a sudden nowhere to be found, and not by the fault of anybody in particular, but in the least, you could say that the relationships/friendships in my life changed, whether it be to certain events, distance, etc. It kind of took me a long time to get used to these changes, getting used to the idea that some people weren't going to be as big a part of my life as they were before. Anyways, I could go on about this subject forever, I've only just grazed the top .. . but the reason I guess I started thinking about this was the departure of my friend JASE (does anyone remember why I started calling him that?! i think it's because he called me some weird nickname . . .but i can't remember)
So it's kind of funny because even though Jason will now be like 3000 miles away instead of 50, I will probably still see him just as often. . . and thanks to the internet, I will probably communicate with him no less than before. So of course, thinking about Jason leaving brought back good old memories from UCLA. Here are just a few:
1. I dedicate 1/3 of my sophomore year weight gain to Jason (the other 2/3 goes to Isaac and Steve). I do not think I have ever eaten more Jack in the Box/McDonalds/fast food than in that year when I had my car at school. We never ate in the dorms, but I could always rely on a trusty phone call from the three boys about what fatty foods we would be consuming that night . . ..
2. which brings us to our second memory, remember that worker at Jack in the Box that mocked the way I said "thank you" and "please"?!?!?!? and remember how it happened on two seperate occassions?! hahahaha
3. Going along with the valley girl theme from #2, I still cannot believe that Jason (and come to mention it, Steve as well), had never heard GAG ME WITH A SPOON until I said it!!!!! I mean come on! How would even my crazy mind come up with that one on my own. haha
4. I remember when I got mad at Jason in the halls of Bunche for copying my econ homework. haha. I don't even remember what made me so pissed that one time, but til this day Steve will bring up that incident whenever someone says something about copying homework or cheating in college, or just about me being pissy in general. It's always "yea, this one time Annie totally bitched at Jason for copying her econ homework!" haha. I know he must have been thinking three letters that all females hate . . P-M-S. 
5. I cannot believe that despite the fact that we had all of the essay questions for Econ 107, I still got a C+. To make things worse, I cannot believe that Jason I think got a B!!!! We were supposed to be in it together! All I have to say is you are lucky I made those last minute note cards with the answers on them! You could not imagine my shock when I look over during the final and see them hidden in your bluebook! *sigh* those were the days . . .
Ok, that's enough memories for now. My brain is tired. You'd think after 4 days off I'd be rested and ready to go back to work, but nope. I may be rested, but I am definitely not ready to go back to work!!!!
