Everything sounds better when written like a novel!
So basically, I missed school today. I woke up, looked at my cell phone and saw that it was 9:27AM. At first I thought I saw it was wrong and rubbed my eyes a few times to clear them up. Checked the phone again. Nope. I was screwed. Tell uncle to give me a ride to school, forget about pencils, changing clothes, money, purse?! Or just forget about it and stay at home. I chose the latter. I finally calmed down enough (after pacing and thinking and more pacing) to ponder why my alarm did not go off. I go to turn on the lights, and they don't work. BLACKOUT! Great day for a blackout, PG&E! Jeez. And to make matters worse, my mother was on the line, screaming at me about my irresponsiblity. I already feel bad enough, & I definately don't need her making me feel worse, so yes, I hung up on her. Twice.
Anyways, after calming down a little bit, I decide to fix myself a snack. I conveniently find ramen all ready on the table. But the soup was missing! So there began my search for my ramen soup. It didn't last very long seeing as how there was only one pot on the stovetop. I heated up the soup, poured it in my bowl, and quieted the grumbling in my stomach. I got a few phone calls throughout the day, from friends wondering where I was & telling me that prom pictures had arrived. FIRST OF ALL, I wake up late, miss school, get yelled at, and THEN I miss seeing my own prom pictures?!? That is ridiculous! I couldn't have picked a worse day for me to miss school! Everyone saw my pictures before I did! Fortunately, I have a great friend (namely Doreen) who offered to drop off the pictures at my house before heading home.
So I spent the whole day sprawled across my bed watching television and bootleg DVDS. I watched Babel (which I don't think was very good) yesterday, and today I finally got around to watching the DVDs that Peter had burned for me. They were Smokin' Aces (which was quite good) and Children of Men (which was quite depressing). After finishing both the movies, I was at loss about what I should do next. Luckily, the joys of the world wide web welcomed me with open arms. A little while later, Doreen came over and the pictures were finally unveiled. I love them! The OCD in me of course noticed that that whole group picture was crooked and should've been shifted to the right, but other than that, they were beautiful. Now comes the search for where copies of my pictures will be made...
...TO BE CONTINUED.
