Yuuji --

Haha, Spongebob is pretty childish, my brother adores it, but I still find it amusing when there's nothing on TV.

My driving test went fine, I bumped a cone on manueverability, but I didn't knock it over so it was only a few points off. The road part was ridiculously easy, I just had to drive through some back roads, no more than 25 mph, nothing more difficult than stop signs. It was only about 10 minutes long too. I was so happy and unbelieving when I passed, I was shaking, haha! I went out to lunch with my parents afterwards.

Yeah, the Twilight movie comes out on December 12th. The 4th book is coming out on the second, so I'm WAY excited about that!

I'm glad that your dad is doing better, and your family might be able to be together again! That will be good =)
I can't imagine going through /all/ of my stuff, that would be hard! I can't sympathize with the house as much, we moved so much I don't really have a childhood home that I've grown up in, but I'm sure it will be nostalgic to go back.

Well, so far I've got $1,400 in the bank, and because of my vacation, probably will hope to have about $2,000 by the end of August. The bad thing is, none of my friends who said they would try to save have lasted, so it looks like if I'm allowed to go, I'll be on my own... well not literally, but I won't have the comfort of familiar people. But I'm good at making friends, and everyone who goes will have similar interests, so I think I will be fine, it might even be good for me. But my parents are naturally more reluctant to let me go now. Oh well, I guess we'll talk about it when the time/money is closer.

The other bad thing, is that unless things change, two of my friends I was going to take the language class with haven't been able to submit things to the program in time, and might not be able to take the course. I really hope our counselors can sort it out, I really would not like to take a course with college students by myself, that would be intimidating. But I can't back out now, plus I really want to learn. I hope they can still get in...

Rum -- I have no idea..
