September 03, 2007: Trip to Wal-Mart. Deaf Club. The Beach Trip.

I went to Wal-Mart last Friday morning and had a breakfast there. I bought 2 different sizes of plastic storage box. One for the size of my high school yearbooks and another is for baby's stuff. And then I went home.
When I got home from Wal-Mart that Friday, I tried to fix the size of my high school yearbooks into a file cabinet storage box but it doesn't. Unsuccessfully. But I had another idea. I put my art stuff in it. I threw out some of art items. Some of them were very old and too dried up. I used them to make things when I was in a college. It was fun to make. Anyways, about another plastic storage box, a medium, I packed baby's stuff in it and put that box under my bed. The baby's stuff was given to me by my mother years ago. I went back to the deaf club at Easter Seals last Sat nite. It was the first time since May. I brought a paper bag of McDonald's meal and a medium drink of Spirite there. That was my supper. We had about 30 guests included me. We were playing a Bingo. Finally, I won the last game of Bingo. Yay! Yay! I got 25 dollars in cash and a set of 6 turquoise (dark) beautiful tropical plastic glasses. I needed glasses cuz I broke hard glasses few times and I don't have enough at home. I've heard the schedule of deaf club is changing for 2007-2008. The deaf club is going to have every first Saturday in each month, not twice a month anymore. I was surprised when I found out about it recently. Anyways, I had a fun that Sat night. And then I went home.
This morning, my mother picked me up for taking me to the beach park. We had to go there early before the crowd of vehicles in the parking lot. Many beachgoers would be heading there for celebrating Labor's Day. That's why. I noticed there's a part of cloudy and sometimes the sun would come out. Mom read a book herself while I read mine. We talked little bit. Then Mom decided to take a walk on the beach. She came back several minutes later. About 20 minutes later or so, we left the beach park. I had a fun.
After the beach trip, I rented a DVD movie at Blockbuster. It is called "The Painted Veil". It starred in by Naomi Watts and Edward Norton. I will tell u about it when I finished watching it. Soon. And then I went home.

August 06, 2007: The Library. The Beach.

I had a good weekend. I went to the library and then to a beach last Saturday.
First stop at the library that I had to take DVD movies back expect the other one and needed to renew a book. I talked to a library about DVD movie set 1 that I requested. I made a mistake by taking a set 3 instead of 1. I didn't read that number but I have no idea. I thought that is only one set of the movie title. She recommended I should be renewing other set 2 and 3 that will be due tomorrow while I waited for set 1. I am hoping a set 1 will be returned tomorrow. And searched for another DVD movie that would interesting me. I picked out a DVD movie from the shelf, "Because I Said So". This movie is so funny. Starred in by Diane Keaton and Mandy Moore. It's about a mother-daugther relationship. Have u watched it yet?
Afterwards, I went to the beach. The weather was so hot and sunny all day. Near 96 degrees. Whoa! Parking spaces are so crowded and full when Dad and I arrived at Tom Renick Park in Ormond-by-the-Sea. I didn't know that. I guess we were late to catch the handicapped parking lot. 3 vehicles were already reserved. Dad was upset. He said we should come in there early. I noticed there are 2 different birthday parties for kids and their family only. I brought my beach bag that carried a mat, beach towel, 2 books, a sunscreen lotion, and 2 different kinds of hats. And 2 cold bottled waters, too. Many people flocked to the beach. I stayed there for about 2 1/2 hours. And then I went home. I had a fun. Thank goodness, I got out of my apt for good cuz staying home on the weekend would make me so boring.
The weather today is getting hot. Sunny all day. About 96 degrees. Feel like this is summer.
I know August is already arrived. This will be the last summer month. I can't believe time goes flying. I still haven't taking a summer vacation yet. The last time I took a vacation was in Orlando 2 years ago but it was short.

Slideshow of Tom Renick Park on Memorial Day 2007

See Ya!

Tom Renick Park on the beachfront on Memorial Day, May 28, 2007

See a photo above. This picture was taken at the same place last year.
I had a fun at the beach park yesterday mid-morning. I went back to Tom Renick Park again, remember that I blogged about last year? See my blog here from last year. When I arrived there, I noticed beachgoers flocking there. So crowded! I know it's due to Memorial Day. Luckily, Dad and I found an empty spot of handicapped parking lot. Thank God, my prayer had been answered. I already asked God for it before I came there. I think my Dad is relieving when he saw it. I know so many drivers are having a hard time to find an empty parking lot. I discovered the playground at a beach park is disappeared no more! I was surprised. The playground was there last year. I swear! Remember I told u that where kids were having a fun? I was disappointed. I took some digital photos there. I enjoyed reading a book and relaxed as Dad was enjoyed looking at the beach. I stayed there until noon time. Do u know about the rip current? See click here for a definition. The rip current is dangerous. It has been staying on for about 2 weeks or so. I heard there are 200 rescues for 3 hours in Cocoa Beach on the TV news yesterday. Goodness. See the TV news here about it.
Here is an info about this beach park: Tom Renick Park
See a slideshow about this in the next blog, please.
