ONION.

I'm turning 20 in 11 days! It's amazing how time flies. Yesterday was one the craziest but funnest days of my life. This week is my last week of Fall semester by the way.
Anyways.. After class, I drove my dad to Carson so we could visit my grandma. After, I drove home to practice for a guitar final with my venture brother, Raniel, which always fails terribly. It turns out that every time we hang out, we always end up talking for hours, sitting in his car, and singing music from his ipod at the top of our lungs.
When he picked me up at 7 p.m., we drove to this secret spot I used to hang out at when I was younger and, of course, we ended up talking for a couple hours. We have the most lamest, nerdiest conversations. I love it! At one point we were trying to imitate zombies hahaha.. Then we told each other.. Okay, we seriously need to practice and study this time.. so we decided to practice outside of Jack in the Box, but once we got there, we slowly pulled into the drive-thru, ordered food, parked in their parking lot and ate. After having a nice dinner in his car, guess what we did.. We talked and sang more music from his iPod!
Productive, aren't we?
It's amazing how well we procrastinate. It's like we're officially each other's best worst influence.
But continuing on..
Indulging in food, conversation, and music fortunately but unfortunately lead us to GREATER trouble. Raniel took me to Del Cerro Park in P.V. sometime around 9 p.m. and their clear view that exact night was, hands down, one of the most amazing things I've seen in my life. Del Cerro Park is located in high elevation so we were looking down at cities covered in clouds. Imagine looking down on clouds and seeing city lights and the headlights of driving cars through the thick fog. It's almost like seeing people living and driving underwater.
That wasn't the only awesome thing that happened at the park. There was a clear meteor shower, which I've never been able to witness 'til last night. It was truly breath-taking.
Police officers arrived to ticket people who were parking at the park during curfew, so we decided to sweep right pass them like ninjas and leave. Before leaving, we saw 3 other cars driving into the parking lot oblivious to the cop handing out tickets. Being the kids we are, we were so amused that we stopped at a stop sign to watch these other people get caught.
Raniel had to leave at 11 p.m. before his parents arrived home from a Michael Buble concert so he dropped me off. We ended up Skyping 'til around 12:30 a.m. Then, he drove to my house at 1 a.m. so we could go out for more adventures (rather than practice for our guitar final). I waited for him in my car and when I saw his headlights through my rearview mirror, I gathered my stuff. As I turned around to walk toward him, a strange black truck was parked next to him. Raniel was parallel parked by my sidewalk while the guy in the black truck, who was wearing a black hooded sweater, stopped next to him in the middle of the road. This stranger just stared at Raniel for a little while, inched forward, stopped and then stared at me for a very long time. I stood there a little confused and scared, so I called Raniel from my driveway to ask who he was. When he answered the phone, the guy left. Raniel had no idea who he was or what to do.
I hopped into his car as quick as I could to follow him down the street. The guy made a right turn and as we made that same right turn, he disappeared. We drove around my neighborhood twice and he was nowhere to be found, so drove to CVS to pick up two blank posters for our "Christi and Raniel's List of Things To Do" list. While waiting in line to pay, the cashier was on the phone. Raniel and I overheard him say, "Her name is Christi." I'm not exactly which Christi (or Christy, Kristy, etc.) but after what happened on my street earlier, Raniel and I freaked out. Finally, the cashier scanned a poster and said, "That will be $1.09." Luckily, the posters were stacked together to look like one, so I grabbed the "one poster" and left CVS w/ Raniel. It was the funniest moment ever! ..along with our many funniest moments.
At the end of our night, we parked by my house to make sure things were safe and talked 'til 4 or 5 a.m. I just woke up not too long ago and I'm still lying in my bed. What a great adventure with my venture brother, Raniel.

I'm too lazy to write more and I seriously need to get out of bed and go to the gym. I'll try to post more when I can. Toodles!
