Days Go By

I can't believe how fast this summer is flying by! I have exactly one month left here in NJ! Kel and AC have been here and UJ was down on the weekend. One of my mom's other sisters, Nancy, has also been here this week with her daughter, Rachel, and Rachel's two LAX friends. Monday i had a ton of errands to run. Yesterday we went to the point in Stone Harbor and then Wing Night at the Windrift hotel. The point in Stone Harbor is the farthest south you can get on the island. So there's a large open beach and at low tide there are tons of shells- especially the conch shells (the big spiral ones you can hold up to your ear and "hear the ocean"). I found a shell with the conch (the actual animal) still alive and inside- totally disgusting. haha but i got it out of the water, showed aNancy and the girls and then we put it back in the ocean. Sometimes you can find the big shells without the conch inside- which is ideal cuz if u want to keep the shell and the animal is still inside, you have to boil the shells to kill it = staanky. So anyways, we looked around for a while and then went back to get dressed for Wing Night- basically, the BEST wings ever and beer on a deck overlooking the ocean... it's rough and I don't recommend it ;) and then on the way back we got ice cream- don't even ask how many calories that was- i have no interest :P Ended the night with a game of Scatergories out on the porch... fun fun
Apparently Jon Gosselin (from Jon and Kate Plus 8) was in Avalon last weekend... probably with some rando chick haha he was 'spotted' at the Golden Inn (near the windrift) and at Uncle Bill's Pancake House (a popular local bfast place)... haha something exciting in Avalon! ;)
Just a random thought I had- you know when you're listening to a radio station and they play their radio "theme", if you will, that says the station name and plays little bits of songs they play? I always get so upset because when they play the song snipit on the commercial, it normally means they aren't gonna play that song for a while and sometimes it's a song I really wanna hear! hahaha random but true, no?!
I realized I don't have many pictures from the summer! Which is kinda great because i've been just trying to enjoy things and soak in the moments rather than trying to capture it all on film. Pics are so great to have and I will prob take a few of different places we've gone and such before I leave, but it's been great to not worry about where my camera is and how the picture turned out, etc haha...
Other than hitting the beach when I'm off during the day, i've been hostessing (too much) and going to my internship... so i've been working a TON- but my last day of hostessing is next Friday- i can't wait. It'll be nice to have evening flexibility. Now that my hostessing job is coming to an end, i've been trying to find comfy shoes hahaha... and a beach cover up... hahaha... better late than never?
AC and UJ are going out to CO on Sunday so it'll be just me and Mags hangin here! :) And i think Kel is gonna come back (she's up in Philly at da moment) at some pt... I think it will be good to have a little down time here but I also lovvve having AC/Kels/UJ and everyone here! We do know how to have a good time haha love ittt
