I am a proud parent...

...of a bubble-eyed goldfish. His name is Tigre el Pescado [Tiger the Fish in Spanish]. This is what he looks like...


I drew on his fish bowl with dry erase markers to provide a habitat for him. We can't put pointy objects or plants in his bowl because his bubble eyes will pop. He's got a castle, some coral, and some plants around his bowl. I think it looks pretty tight.

I got my haircut too. But I want to let my friends at home see my hair before I post pics [Em and Kate, you'll have to be surprised  hahahaha].

Nic, Chels, Charlie, and I set up a tent the other night and "camped out" in the back of the Commons. HAHAHAHAHAHA. Good times. Got in... slight trouble? No worries, it was worth it. 

Nic and I [and a little bit of Chelsea] made this amazing pasta dish which we have named Christic Ch-icken. [Chelsea cut the chicken, so part of her name is there]. It's chicken with a chunky tomato/lemon/basil sauce over pipette pasta. Excellent!

Seriously, the theme of my latest posts has been "randomness", and honestly, that is all the past few weeks have been; random fun adventures and activities.

We started P90X yesterday, by the way. Round two tonight.

Alright, I'm peacin' it. Laterrrr.

Matthew 16:24-25/Things in my life.

I hope that text was readable :] Anyways. Update on my life:
-Quite content. God's really come through for me.
-God is also definitely laughing at me. I won't go into details, but He is probably cracking up right now. I am also cracking up right now.
-I thought that with classes being over I would have time to edit and work out and stuff. Lies.
-I have 15 days to get packed and out of my apartment.
-27,454,500 pennies can fit inside of my office.
That's all I can think of. K bye.

If only I could remember all the hilarious quotes from this weekend.

So seriously. New Jersey is amazing. I don't care what anyone says. Jersey is OFF. THE. HOOK. So much happened this weekend so I will categorize things into quotes, happenings, and stories.

Everyone at home rocks, here are some mostly paraphrased quotes:
-"You hold me NOW. And later. And tomorrow."
-"Fourth of July is about America and God." "America before God? That's it, you're out of the band."

-"Get off the road, old man!"
-"You've got some schmutz on your face."
-"Three worst ways to die: 1- Being frozen by the sun, 2- falling in the sky and landing on a fire hydrant. 3- Christen, what's another bad way to die?"
-"Electric Ice" "Obama"
-"I'm going to name my child Deuteronomy, Deut for short."

Basically my weekend consisted of the following:
Beach, band practice, family bike rides, barbeques [no stupid pulled pork stuff], swimming, front flips, friendship, laughter, water chugging contests, homework, Bennys [gah], eleven, worship, longboarding, weird sounds, eating, coffee, church, fireworks, hot tub, more laughter, poop [see below] and praying on the "dock".

Moments worth noting:
-I was pulling on to route 18 with Em today and we passed this car pulled over to the side, this guy is holding his 2-year-old child near the curve and the kid has a shirt on, but is butt naked. The kid was definitely pooping on the side of the road.
-I saw Alli S. today, that was really exciting considering I haven't seen her in forever. There was a lot of laughter during our time together.
-The beach was nice today but it took about 20 minutes to find parking, and the beach was SO PACKED. So. Many. Bennys.
-The youth praise band, aka the Bloody Whiskers/Mary and the Crew/The Wig Theives/ FBCRBYGPB played so well today. God is good.
-Charlie and I noticed that our relationship is often based on sounds, like "Boop" or "Blpblpblp" or "A-poke"

Ahh, such good times. Virginia is not appealing right now, lol.
