pre-school plans

Tonight is, again, a late night. My plan of going to bed early this week did not go through, so now I will just be a little tired for the first week or so of school. Oh well, I think I can deal with it. Tonight I'm going to try something a little different. I'm actually going to write about my day.

I woke up this morning around 11:00 AM, which is a little too late if you ask me. Anyway, my mother told me that my dear friend Rachel had just called me a few minutes before. I called her back and she wanted to know if I wanted to go with them to the store. Of course, I said yes. But they were coming in about an hour, so I had to rush around a little to get ready, as usual, lol. They picked me up around 12:30 and we headed to Ames in ********* (a town, but I'm not saying where because there are some psycho people out there) but it was out of business. A lot of the Ames in my are are going out of business, but we hadn't realized that the Ames people had already taken action. Oh well. Across the street was a Marshall's so we went in there and Rachel tried on some cool dressy black pants, a pinkish roxy shirt, and some funky but cool blackish gold pants. Her, her mom, and I all went into the little dressing area and she showed us each article or clothing and we told her yes or no...just like in the movies! Wow, maybe my life isn't that boring.

She wound up getting just one shirt, but I think she's already gone school shopping. Next we went to the dollar store which was actually pretty cool because it had a lot of stuff. I got some stuff that my mom and I needed and Rachel got some school stuff, etc. Rachel jokingly asked her Mom to go to Chi-Chis for lunch, but her mom actually took us there. Of course I had no idea what to order because, first of all, I didn't know what half the stuff was, and second of all, everything was like $10.00+ so I wasn't going to order some foriegn thing and then have her mom pay like 15 bucks for something I didn't even like. Rachel suggested the taco salad, which I assumed had the meat and the spicy cheese and chips and stuff but actually turned out to be like a regular salad except it had taco toppings on it. Enough about my lunch. Next we drove a lot and went to a grocery store because Rachel's mom needed some stuff because she was making something for our little dance party, but more about that later. I also picked up something on my list that the dollar store didn't have, Noxema. Hey, I need healthy skin too.

We went back to Rachel's house and made Puppy Chow which isn't what you're probably thinking. I guess you could call it a dessert, but it's really good. Anyway, we made that and we made some yikky shrimp salad stuff for Rachel's mom...we actually had to touch the shrimp, yuk, I am NOT a seafood person. Then we just goofed around for awhile and then we left for church.

We are working on a float for Rachel's church's youth group that will be in some local fall parades. Rachel, Courtney, and Tonya are in charge of the "dance" or "routine" or whatever, so all the girls were going to come tonight and work on this "routine" or whatever. We ate some snacks and then we got to work. We actually came up with a lot of cool ideas, but personally I'm not really the kind of person who just does a dance in front of a lot of people, ESPECIALLY people I know that, like, live near me and go to my school and stuff. Oh well, maybe someone can take my spot and I can do something else on the float, like hand out props or something. Dancing isn't really my thing. The "dancing party" was tons of fun. We goofed off and talked about peoples feet and how weird everybody's feet are and then we drank soda and ate more snacks and then we just goofed around with the dance.

I am now totally exhausted but very bored, so that's why I am writing all this. Also I am waiting for my *new* school clothes to get done in the washing machine. Actually I think they done now. Oh, I need to make a list of stuff I need to do tomorrow, aka: the day before school...

1. Get clothes ready for Monday
2. Think about outfit possibilities for Tues., Wed., and Thurs.
3. Get earrings ready
4. Re-pierce top hole, ouch
5. Make sure Dad signs papers.
6. Look for social security # that is lost, ahhhhh
7. Take shower, lol
8. Shave legs with *new* Melon Burst shaving lotion
9. Pluck eyebrows, lol
10. Go to bed by 9:00/9:30 PM

Smooches, *Me*

Congrats

If you're made it this far, then you're worthy of being my friend. The end.
