Oregon Coast & Montana

Hey folks! I'm not gonna be on for very much longer...But I wanted to dash off a quick entry since I'm at an internet cafe in Yachats, Oregon... (for those unawares, that's a cute lil' town on the Oregon Coast)... Its so much fun :-D I'm here with my family.. my uncle, aunt and cousin from Belgium, my aunt who lives near us, my grandparents (also live near us) and we will be meeting up with my uncle and his new girlfriend from Florence (a nearby town).... and its a family reunion slash birthday celebration cuz my grandma turned 80 five days ago, and my cousin turned 8 yesterday... and my mom turns 54 in two weeks... plus several cousins have birthdays in late July early August as well.. its crazy, the amount of birhtdays on the Coffindaffer side of the family in late summer!!

I'm drinking a raspberry iced tea.. and I am going next door to buy "Into Thin Air" at Greg snow_demon and Kyle kilo_foxtrot's behest! Its at a nifty used bookstore two stores down... the amazing thing is that the bookstore is on SALE for 29,000! Its not a bad price actually... But wouldn't that be so awesomely cool!? To buy a used bookstore!? I would love, love, LOVE to do that!!! But I've still got two years left of college... But to live in a small coast town and sell books!! hehehe!! :-D

What else.. I've been doing a ton of reading lately.. I'm reading "Servants of the Map"... (last year's "If All of RIT Read the Same Book") and there's actually a story about a deaf girl/school in it! Its pretty cool... I've got two more stories to go then that book'll be done.. Next up is probably "Into Thin Air" as I've wanted to see what the hub-bub is all about! hehe..

Ohhhh and I DID finish Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.. Wow.. like Nate said... "Wow.. totally wasn't expecting that ending" ... I suspected ______'s death though cuz of one of the chapter titles.. But I didn't pay any mind to it.. Anyways.

I'm headin' out to buy that book.. Take care all, and enjoy the rest of your week... oh and even tho I know he won't read this... Happy Birthday to Brendon!! He turns 19 today..

RIT is coming up fast... i think I'm the only person who isn't living in either an apartment or RIT Inn... I'm in Ellingson again-- anybody actually sharing my fate? I'm on the 8th floor .......again. This time on the opposite side though.. 8081.. One number different than last year's (8031)..

hmm what else?? nothing? yeah I figured.. okay i'm gonna go check my email one last time, leave Julie kittenfire one more message *grin* then I'm gonna skedaddle.

Enjoy what you're surrounded by. Life is truly good.
