The Product of Productivity

Tuesday, the first day of my summer, I did a lot—which I might add that I am thankful that I can drive myself around now or else I would not have been able to accomplish anything.

I had a rude awakening from my dad who demanded I bring my younger brother to school that morning which then led me to go to Celine's house consequently. We planned to go out for breakfast at Bagel Bar (to see my review, click here!). I had the "traditional salmon platter" which was basically lox, complete with tomatoes, cucumbers, capers, cream cheese (although, it might have been sour cream for all I care), and thinly sliced red onions (which I completely appreciated!!). Celine shared her blueberry muffin which me which was also very sweet. We sat at the bagel bar and ate our food after we ordered. I ended up only eating on side of my bagel and brought the other side home for Kayla, my younger sister.

After breakfast, we headed back to our old high school to fill out forms to send out our final transcripts to our university of choice. When we finished, we decided to visit some of our high school teachers from the science and English departments. From there, we ended up pranking our AP English Literature teacher by sticking sticky notes on his car and putting unused toilet seat covers in between spaces from his door handles inside his trunk, in between the spokes of his wheels, and even in his grill! Hahaha. It was definitely sweet stuff considering the fact that Celine, An, and I didn't end up pranking him before we graduated.

Later, I dropped Celine off before 10am and ended up visiting her again after I picked up Angelo, my younger brother, from school at 2pm. She hooked me up with a Sprinkles vanilla and Angelo with a Sprinkles dark chocolate—nomz!

That afternoon, Kayla and I began Insanity all over again (which is a whole other post in itself!). Afterwards, we picked up some Pirates Booty and headed to our dear friend, Sidney's, house to watch the season premiere of Pretty Little Liars! Kayla and I had some of her mom's cactus with rice (which happened to be pretty delicious) while Sidney was making homemade lemonade. The episode was disappointing, but I was just glad to spend some time with two of my best girlfriends! :)

Our ode to Pretty Little Liars summer tradition! We've established that we'll go to each other's house (alternating) every week to watch the new episode :)

Wednesday, unfortunately, was not all productive. But, my sister and I did manage to bring Max to the Mt. San Miguel dog park to play for a bit!

Today was definitely better. From picking up Angelo around 2pm, I chilled and committed to my daily workout with Kayla. Later, we visited my elementary school where I ran into my kindergarten teacher and told her about my graduation. I definitely wish I could have invited her, but I held back :P Nonetheless, I was extremely happy to see her. Later, Kayla and I stopped by Hans and Harry's, Baskin Robbins, several Starbucks, and other stores to see if they were hiring. After I gave up, we stopped at Bento & Noodles for dinner (click here to see my review). Let's just say I'd rather eat at Hanaoka any day. Finally, we drove home and watched So You Think You Can Dance with our mom.
