I got up early this morning and cleaned my apt.. then I just chilled and went to the mall. I then went to lab and then to Ashley's place.. and now I am still here hanging out with her and Eugene. <br /><br />So.. I never know what to write in these things.. I miss home sooo much and I can not wait to be there. Umm.. I am in the end of the term for my classes and will be starting the new ones on monday. I don't have much planned for next month.. I might go to Universal Horror Nights and the vegetarian festival. Oh... and to a concert with Ash. <br /><br />That is all for now..

Rick was here for several days, he was supposed to be here for the entire month of August but on the fourth day that he was here we got news that his grandmother passed away, so we both flew back to la to attend the wake and the funeral. :( I miss her so much, she was such an amazing and giving individual. <br /><br />On a lighter note, Rick came back for several days (4) later in the month/ beginning of September.. he made it for his birthday and Eugene's graduation. I wish that he could have never left. <br /><br />Now.. I have been living on my own for several weeks.. and I have to say... I LOVE IT!! I never again want roommates!! Also, I have been a vegetarian now for over four months now YAY! <br /><br />Well..

WOW! I'm getting better! Next thing you know I'll be wrting the exact times that I eat and shower, maybe evern use the bathroom.<br /><br />Anyway.....<br /><br />I went to Cleveland after all, and had a blast. Visited the Cleveland Zoo (Ashley took a "detour") so on the way there I got to see a little of downtown and the Indians stadium (boooo!). The zoo was fun, Onnika had a blast except for her thinking that everything was going go eat or bite her...even the butterflies. We also went to Cedar point.. and (drum cadance) I got on the Dragster! The drive to Cleveland and back was fun, I'm sure Ashley and I are now full of inside jokes! <br /><br />BTW I &lt;3 Desperate Housewives!<br /><br />So earlier this week I started my new classes, Edititng and History of Motion Picture Arts! They're ok..<br /><br />On a lighter note, I go home in 21 days!! When I get back I finally get my own apartment!! YAY! urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:maverica:846 2007-05-21T17:42:38Z 2007-05-21T17:46:06Z UPDATE!!<br /><br />For the sake of pleasing Ashley and giving her something to do as we “prepare” I will update. Lets see…. Last time I wrote was two months ago... since then I have been extremely busy with school. <br /><br />In March I finished sound for film and storytelling, come April I started the directing and digital cinematography courses. April was all pre-production and for the last week I have been filming my first Full Sail film “Big Bad Booty Daddy” which wrapped Saturday night. YAY! I now have two weeks off before I return to school, which is GREAT as I am in much need of a break. Filming mentally and physically drains you. Period. Although fun. <br /><br />This Friday I will be going on a road trip cross country, (again, the last was from LA to Orlando) but this time is Orlando to Cleveland and back on June 2nd. I am soooo exited!! The drive alone will be fun… just me, Ashley, and Penny!! Once there… who knows what we will do! Cedar Point maybe?<br /><br />I haven't ate meat in several days.. five maybe... I wish that I remembered the exact date incase I actually go cold turkey and become veggitarian. haha.. cold turkey.. veggitarian. I'm exited though!<br /><br />Another thing to be exited about?!? August!! I have two things that I am looking forward to in August.. wait make that three. Sorry But I have to keep them secret at this point in time. ;)<br /><br />P.S I learned how to use Devils Sticks last night.<br /><br />P.S.S I suck at it. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:maverica:726 2007-03-17T04:13:25Z 2007-03-17T04:13:25Z My first entry.. yay!<br /><br />Hey the name is Erica, and Im the glass is half full type of gal. My life is full of spontaneity, so you will never be bored around me. I live for passion, I thrive for what others might think is the inconceivable, and I hate to lose. I am very stubborn, but worth the time because I am ever so charming. I am not afraid to admit that I am a self proclaimed vixen because frankly I do not care what others think. I am a maverick, hence the name MavEriCa. I love glamour, and class, and just having fun. In times of despair, I laugh, and think hey, it will get better. I am self conscious, but I believe that is a good trait because it is what pushes me to be better, as it should everyone else.<br /><br />I am currently attending FS in florida, working towards my BS in film and then my masters in entertainment business. The plan is to run or open a major film production company. <br /><br /> My home is in SoCal, as is my family and friends.... oh and some guy named Rick that calls me his girlfriend.<br /><br />Hope that you enjoy my journal!!!
