haaaaaaaaaaa...(that is not a laugh, but a sigh.)
This past weekend was just perfect!
On Friday, I filled up my car with gas and drove back home. I was supposed to hang out with Ben King, but he ended up having to work, so I hung out at home and relaxed, then drove downtown and picked up Emily Nicely, then we went and had dinner with Tohru. We talked for hooouuuuurrrrrss about lots of crazy stuff and all the things that have happened over the past few months. They told me their anniversary stories (Emmy celebrated 2 years with Andrew, and Tohru celebrated 1 year with Sav) and I told them my dumb little stories about encounters with the boy I like, which don't even compare. Hahah.
After that, I finally went home around 1 or 1:30 and my mom and I sat and talked until 3.
The next morning, we all woke up early and cleaned up the house, then my sister went out for lunch with my dad, Laurie, and the girls. Mom and I got cleaned up and we went to Perfect Pinkie for pedicures! It was my sister's idea, and a GRAND idea it was :) Except the guy who did my feet sort of looked like Mr. Burns, so it kind of freaked me out. After that, Sara and I waddled next door to the new sandwich/bubble tea place, but they were out of bubbles, so we had tea with jellies and it was too weird to drink. I probably only finished half of mine :|
Once we got back, Sara went "shopping" with Paul and Mom and I began preparing everything for the festivities. It was a luau theme, so we had a bright tablecloth with hibiscus, some tiki garland thing, a fishnet that we threw over the TV (although I said we should throw it over Sara when she walked in, but we didn't -_- ), and we had leis to pass out to everyone. I took control of that, so that I could ask everyone if they wanted to get lei'd :D
After Sara arrived, it was just a bunch of mingling and reminiscing with people, but it was a great time! I ate too much food, but it was so hard NOT to eat because we had ribs from Texas Roadhouse (which came with delicious rolls and cinnamon butter), chicken wings, chips with cheesy meat dip, pasta salad, pumpkin bread, fruit, veggies, butterscotch rice krispie treats, and then birthday cake later. I thought I was going to throw up T_T
Most people left around 10 or 11, but Paul and one of Sara's best friends Kayla stayed and hung out. It was really fun, but I was also the youngest one there and felt sort of out of place, so around or after 12, I decided to call someone and we talked for over an hour and a half and it made my heart very happy :3
Yesterday was pretty relaxing, but I also studied a bit for the accounting exam I have tonight. I think I'll do decently, but sometimes it takes me a while to figure out the problems, then when I do, I realize I was just missing some stupid mathematical step or something.
But I just got back from College Mall a little while ago, and I applied to American Eagle and Victoria's Secret (they were the only 2 places I saw with Now Hiring! signs that weren't just for management). I already landed an interview at AE for tomorrow at 4:30, and I think I have a much better chance of getting hired on there than at VS because I'm just not glamorous enough for VS. Oh well, I think I'd like working there better anyway :)
