So I took this trip to
A&M this past Thursday and Friday. It was fun and exciting. I didn't really know anyone at the program so I was outgoing and extra friendly. I was proud of myself for not being as shy as I usually am around new people. I talked with a rep from the corps and I'm really really interested. As in I'm going to be in it unless I'm accepted into a different school that gives me a full scholarship/grant for all four years.
I got my hair braided in
Mexico this weekend. It feels so cool when a breeze comes by and so weird when I wash my hair. I going to wear a hat at the fireworks stand to cover it up; I'll take it off on breaks and such to cool off cause hats can get hot.
Jacob came over
today.We watched Uncle Buck. I haven't seen him since Coty's party, and we didn't even talk until the ride home. It was nice having him over. My dad asked Mr. Grande about him joining us to Fiesta Tx later this week. He said that he doesn't have a problem with it and that it sounds fine but his body language was so stiff and rigid after my dad asked. He was basically saying "No way Jose! Not ever in a million years. Not now, not when he's 18, not in three years. No!" The irony was slightly funny not considering the fact that Jacob won't be able to come. I don't know anyone that will be able to come and on such short notice. If I don't bring anyone, I'll just take care of Isaac. I don't mind getting on all the kiddie rids with him. To tell you the truth, I would actually enjoy reliving the memories of riding them (shh, don't tell).
Back to
Corps of Cadets: I don't know whether to join the infantry band or the artillery band. What's the difference between the A- Company, B-Company, A-Battery, and B-Battery? Will I be able to participate in any clubs such as the that ballroom dancing one. That sounds like lots of fun, for me at least. I like student clubs. Corps members get free tickets to all A&M games (or maybe just home games). I will have a bed time at 10:30 so I know I will get at least 7.5 hrs of sleep. That's a lot more than what I would get if I weren't going to be in the corps. I'm excited. This girl I met at the A&M camp last week thought I was weird because I was excited about anything like boot camp. I thought she was weird because she didn't like chocolate, peanut butter, mint, or cream cheese.
I'm glad I'm working at the firework stand but I'm sad I miss out on this get together my friends are having on 4th of July. I miss hanging out with them. This is the first summer break that I have missed my friends.
