Just wanted to mention that while I immediately thought you were a pretty young lady, my son is absolutely enchanted with you, and thinks you are a *right pretty filly*

Thats a HUGE compliment from a cowboy..

Really, you are a very beautiful young lady.. not all overly made up..like a Texan..LOL


Zin and Blake..

Thank you! Both for the compliment and for giving me some insight to what Texans might be like should I decide to go to Texas A&M next year.

My Cornell interview went well. I was 25 minutes late, because there was horrible traffic... it took us 1.5 hours to drive about 10 miles into downtown.
My interviewer was really nice. He graduated from Cornell's hotel school in 2005. He grew up near Santa Barbara so he could give me an idea of what it was like to move from SoCal to Ithaca and back.
Then he walked me to my mom's car, explaining, "The building is kind of a nice, corporate area, but when you leave this area, there are a lot of sketchy people."
Inside I was going, OMG!!!!! My interviewer just said sketchy, lol.
:biggrin2:

Just wanted to let you know, I enjoyed looking through your blog! I loved your Halloween pictures of the buns, so adorable. Your Senior pics are really nice too, you look very pretty! I hope the School search is much improved. Big decision!

I'm not sure if I mentioned it on here, but, over spring break, I went to Spain on a school trip (just like my Italy and Belgium, France & Switzerland trips). While there, I picked up two tiny sombreros, a green one for Timmy and a straw colored one for Fiona.
Here's some new pictures.

Great photos!

I'm not ignoring you guys, I've just been really busy with AP's and such at school. This is my last real week of school. Next week is finals week, but, unless I did poorly on my physics quiz today, I won't have to take any finals because all my classes are either AP's or I have an A in them.
Then we have graduation practice week, then graduation itself.

I really am a bad member...
I have some new pictures or you guys though!

I graduated from high school on May 24th. I went to an all-girls school with an 84 year tradition of white dresses and roses. The dress was designed by one of my classmates.
It was really nice, except for the rain which meant we had to take our class picture inside.
I "made out like a bandit" at senior celebration and graduation. I ended up with CSF (California Scholarship Federation), NHS (Nathional Honor Society), Tri-M music society, AP Scholar with honor, the Archdiocean community service award, departmental distinction in Social Studies, Science & English at senior celebration. I graduated Summa Cum Laude and got the gold medals in Science and Social studies at graduation.
My mom has now created a shrine for me at our house.
For dinner we went to Lawry's the prime rib.
Yum.

More pictures.
This time birthday pictures.
I turned 18 (yay legality, not that there's anything I really want to do, but still) on Thursday.
I went to Ruth's Chris with my mom & her boyfriend and my grandma on my birthday. Then on Saturday-Sunday I had 9 girls over for a small party.

Here's some of me & my golden retriever, Missy in my 1/2 off birthday dress.

I'll try to get some bunny pictures soon for you guys.

 

[missyscove]

Okay, some pictures from today...

I found this in the cheerios box...

Groom me!

Uh... no

 

[AngelnSnuffy]

You look so beautiful in your gown! And so beautiful with the bunners!

I really like the first ones with the green sweater! Love those.

 

[Michaela]

I hope you had a great 18th! Belated Birthday wishes! :balloons:

Great pictures!

Oh my gosh- somehow I missed all your recent updates!

Congrats on your graduation (and all your awards) and on turning 18! Do you know where you will go to college yet?

I love all the pics of the two with their hats. Did you love Spain??

So are the two still bonded or are they separate? What will you do if/when you go away to school?

I love the Timmy Cheerios pics- and the one of Fiona tranced on your lap!

I'm going to Cornell to study Animal Science. Orientation starts August 22nd.
My mom will take care of the buns (and the dogs and the fish). That was the understanding when we first got them, that they were really for her.

I really liked Spain, but I liked Belgium, France and Switzerland and Italy better, though I finally got a chance to use my Spanish.

They're still separate, but right now fiona is loose in the kitchen and Timmy's in the pen but they're sitting next to eachother. Fiona keeps putting her head down to be groomed and Timmy's not getting the message.
Yesterday I let them out together for a few minutes. Fiona humped Timmy's head and I stopped them when they started chasing eachother.

 

[Haley]

Cornell is a long way from home! Do you have to live on campus the first year? You will have so much fun!

Thats too bad about Fiona and Timmy. Are you going to try to bond them again before you go away to school?

Tell you mom if she ever has questions when youre gone shes welcome to come on here

 

[Elf Mommy]

Timmy has got to have some palomino in him....those markings! He's soooo cute!

Congratulations on being accepted into Cornell!!!!

 

[missyscove]

I don't think we have to live on campus the first year, but I am. I'm in a double.

I'll certainly *try* to bond them again, but then again we've been trying for like a year already... so...

 

[missyscove]

Ahem...

We have snuggling!


We started with an ex-pen session. Fiona humped Timmy's head, a lot.
Then we moved to the hallway for a photo session which turned into a snugglefest... kind of.

Here's a start to the pictures.

The rest are uploading!

"This is a nice hallway"

"You stay there, I'll stay here, okay"

"Hmm, my feet smell funny. I know, I'll lick them!"

More grooming

 

[missyscove]

He's really handsome.

really handsome

Fiona cleans up for her date.

"Groom me"
"No, you groom me!"

Okay

Woah, too much cuddling

I'd rather lick my foot than your head

Bunny butt

Okay, snuggletime

"Psst, Fiona, I think the human is watching us."

 

[missyscove]

We had another successful session today. I let the two of them play in the hallway for several hours while I sat in my room and worked on my scrapbook. They took turns walking into my room, then I'd catch them and they'd scamper out.

Sorry, no pictures today.
