The Not So Google

Saturday was my first full day that I wasn't partially in California. Being home is bittersweet.

I woke up Saturday and got to go over to my grandma's place. We sat down and just talked about a lot of things. I finally told my parents about the scholarship from Google. They liked that. =D Other than that I told them a few stories about what we did, and the awesome people we did it with.

After we left my grandma's we picked up some McDonald's and headed home. I showed my family our app we made at Google, with all the bugs. After that I worked on getting my Skype set up, and talked to Lynn and a few other people from Google.

Emily Smirl asked me about going to Cadillac Ranch, so I texted a lot of people and invited them. We planned to meet at the park at 5, then be at Cadillac Ranch at 7. At first, only Cong showed up, so we just talked. At about 5:30, Emily and her friend showed up. We went to Walmart and Sonic, before heading back to Olsen to meet up with Blaine.

Cong didn't stay to go to Cadillac Ranch, opting to get some sleep (He's a smart man). We met Kelcey, and Brian at Cadillac Ranch, and later Stickley showed up. It was a lot of fun getting to just hang out with everyone. Blaine had to leave to go help Chelsea, and after a lot of spray painting we decided to go to Barnes & Noble to get Bananagrams (Shoutout to Lynn, Kasra, and Emily). I've gotten good at those elevator pitches (Shoutout to Damien). =P

We headed over, and actually spent a good amount of time looking through books before heading over to Emily's house to actually play said game. It was a lot of fun, and I also got to teach them Anagrabble. It was a lot of fun getting to spread the love of Bananagrams. After we played a few rounds we went to go bowling at Western Bowl. We played a game, which i didn't do too hot at, then went home for the night.

I blogged and talked on the wave. I miss the days of exciting lounge parties. =D

Love and miss all you people from Google!
Love all you guys from Amarillo!
