#AreWeReallyDoingThis

School's Out!

That equals California party.

Yes, after finals I celebrated my freedom by heading down to Swindle's house in Irvine.

Let me tell you, it freaking ROCKED. I spent my days going to fun theme parks, hanging out at the beach, watching a RIDICULOUS amount of NBA finals, and overall just showing my home state some mega love.

I basically documented NONE of it. I am the worst at taking pictures. Mostly because I never seem to have my camera. The following images have been stolen from  Eric's insta. He weirdly GETS it on the old gram.  Oh how I love insta...

Monopoly. Eric killed. Ugh. I hate him.

But I got second place #almostwinning.

Eric's mom is a CRAZY good singer.

We all got to head down to a performance. It was amazing. Also, she is a crazy good rock band singer, which is probably my dream in life. PS: after this trip I am officially a MEDIUM on Rock Band. Seriously? Killin' it.

Slice of heaven.

This pizza was so good I wanted to squirrel it, and just stuff it in my cheeks and save it for later, even after I was TOTALLY full. Also, they had good mozzarella sticks. I freaking LOVE those. That's really how you get me to like something; throw some fried cheese in with it.

BONUS: and NOT from Eric's insta:

Doesn't he look SOOOO happy.

Sometimes I make Eric model "future missionary" shirts for Leslee, so I can send her texts about NEEDING a targ shirt. Also, target is underrated. That is all.

As you can see, I ATE my way through California. No joke, from a period of Wednesday to today (Monday) I ate at: Stripburger (in Vegas with Cate!!), Panda Express, Gina's Pizza, a place that was EXACTLY like Panera Bread (I ain't complaining... I LOVE Panera), and Chipotle. That's just the places we ate out at. No joke, I've eaten like fifty cookies at Eric's house. Seriously so good, and so bad, all at once.

Anyway, what does this title mean? The entire trip Rich, James, Eric (yes, I DO realize I went road tripping with all males, and yes I DO realize what kind of girl that makes me...) and I have spent it going, "Wait, guys, are we REALLY doing this?" It's even become our go-to insta hashtag. It basically is asking (jokingly) if we are really going to go through with this road trip. We even do it while already in CA for dayz. Funny and weird. So us.

In closing, check out this mid-ride pic Eric snapped of us. Thank you insta for capturing this gem from Knotts.

PS: ridiculously good looking photobomber? Check.

I love California. I miss California. 

Listen to this, it melts your heart. 

If it didn't, I am sorry to tell you that you are soulless. Hey, ginger.
