like a vision of love that seems to be true.. *
Hello everyone, I hope you all are having a wonderful spring break. I’m so sad that it’s already over. Last night was the last night of it and then back to school :(. Ugh, I don’t even want to think about that. Well, I guess in a way I’m sort-of anxious to go back and see the people that I haven’t seen during break, but then again it’s so nice to sleep in and lounge around all day and not have to worry about the work and stress of school. Oh well, at least my best friend will be home again, YAY!
Well I haven’t written in here for a while, so I’ll start off by catching up on what’s been going on this past week.
Let’s see here.. Sunday was Easter. It was actually not too exciting for the most part, but whatever. The fam came over around noon and we all just pretty much hung out the whole day. We had some sweet treats and good food :) although I don’t like lamb so I didn’t eat that for dinner. Nikki and the twins were outside playing basketball in their driveway, so Jimmy and I found that quite amusing as we noticed ourselves being so bored that we were watching other people have fun, while gazing out of our window from the window seat in the living room. Haha, pretty pathetic.. I know. But anyways, the good part was that I got a flippin amazing Easter basket from Jordan. It included many neat things such as a pretty purple and green stuffed animal, some awesome socks w. a little bunny head, tons of candy, a mini gumball machine, balloons, silly putty, a ball, a notepad, and much more. Basically the rest of the night we just took it easy and relaxed until the rest of the family left. No one seemed to want to watch any of the movies I picked out, or play a game to liven up the party, so it was pretty lame and I ended up cashing out on the couch.
Monday came bright and early, as I had to wake up at like 8 in the morning. I hopped in the shower and before I knew it Maddie was already in my driveway ready to pick me up. We went over to the high school for the baseball game, it was a double header. Holy long day. I did the palm pilot as usual, and overall it was a pretty fun day. We brought in some sweet cereal (Apple Jacks and Fruit loops) but once the wind hit the boxes fell on me, so I had a ton of cereal crumbs all over my back and butt area, but Mitz was my little duster and he brushed it off for me, so I guess that was nice of him.. haha. The moms brought us food in between games, so that was sweet. I think they brought hot dogs and other treats, but I decided to only eat some chips and the other stuff because I don’t really like hot dogs.
After the game was over, Maddie dropped me off. I was on the phone with Kristin for a while and we decided to hang out later on that night. So at around 7ish Krisface came over and we hung out here for a while. We made my favorite potato skins :) and some awesome garlic bread for dinner. Haha it was a lot of fun. Then, we decided to watch the Season Premiere of the Bachelor. The girls on it are really annoying and bitchy to say the least, but we found it pretty interesting. We were gonna watch Someone Like You because she’s never seen it before and it’s one of my favorite movies, but we didn’t have enough time because Kristin’s mom came to pick her up a little early. The rest of the night I just relaxed and what not, it wasn’t too thrilling.
Tuesday, yet another double header. We got to the high school ready for the game. It was a really nice day out. Haha Donny and Waylock gave me the nickname PINKYYY because I was wearing my sweet hot pink sweat pants, so that was pretty funny. After the boys killed the other team during the first game, me and Mad-dawg headed over to the bleachers and sat w. Kyle and Nicole for a bit. The moms brought Italian Beef, sickkkk.. so Maddie and I just snacked on some of Mrs. Luedtke’s awesome M&M cookies and I snuck a few up for Amy, Kyle, and Nicole :) Delishhhhh.
La de da.. Later on that night, I went out to dinner with the fam to China Palace in Crystal Lake. Haha my dad put his nasty shrimp dinner on my plate, so I flipped on him, but I didn’t even end up liking my dinner because it was really weird, so that sucked because I usually love Chinese Food. Maddie called me while I was in the restaurant and I was put on the spot to help her think of some love songs she could put on her CD that she was making at best buy, that was rough.
After dinner, my parents drove me over to Kristin’s house. I was basically going crazy, like I was getting really aggravated with myself and I didn’t feel like watching a movie or anything, it was really weird. But, we ate some really good chips that her mommy brought home for us :) Maddie invited us over to Drew’s because I guess they were gonna have a bonfire, but turns out they didn’t end up having one and they just hung out there, so we didn’t go. Then, after spending like an hour in the bathroom making ourselves look all pretty by doing our hair and makeup, we decided to go to the park. Well that turned into a little adventure, we both were like falling down this hill with a bunch of branches poking us and it was really windy. Kristin also had me take like 20 million pictures of her, geeze talk about conceited. But anyways, she also took some really nasty pictures of me, I hate her camera. Then we swung on the swings for a bit and realized we should go home because it was kind-of lame.
I took the shortcut to her house and ended up getting there super fast, but Kristin had to take the long way because she thought her neighbors were gonna yell at us for walking through their grass, psh what a scaredy cat. Hmm.. well we didn’t end up doing much else. We loaded the pictures onto her computer and they turned out terrible, but whatever.
Then later on into the night, Maddie picked me up from Kristin’s casa and I went over to her house w. her. I got to have some cheese and crackers :) (Tradition at the Plewacki’s) and considering I always eat all their food, I ate a lot of that yummy goodness :) So, after eating a bunch of food we headed up to her room and just layed down and talked for a while, it was nice to catch up on things with her and what not. Then we eventually fell asleep and woke up the next morning with no desire to go to the baseball games. I tried to stay in bed for as long as I could, until I had to get up. Once Maddie was ready, we went over to my house and I got dressed and all that jazz. Then, my mom was trying to make us eat, but we wanted to go get a box of cereal at Jewel, so that was a hassle trying to get out of the house. Anyway, we got to Jewel and picked up some Froot Loops for us and the boys because we all love them. We got the huge box because Mitz always steals them and eats the whole thing within like one inning. Then, we finally got to the school and started everything up for the game.
The first game wasn’t too fun; Maddie and I were just wishing we weren’t there because we were pretty much all baseballed out. Me and Brian shared the Froot Loops, although he still ate pretty much the whole box as always. Then we were trying to hide them from the little kids. Haha as one of the guys described it; the dugout is like a Daycare for the little tykes. Basically because Suds always has his kids and their friends come into the dugout and stay with all of the baseball players to annoy them during the game. It’s really lame I’d have to say, the little kids run around and try to steal our food, but Mitz and I weren’t about to allow that to happen. Although the kids tried to be sneaky and squeeze in through tight spaces to get to the food, we were definitely under control.
The next game went by pretty quickly and it was fun just talking with all of the guys as usual. Then it had ended and we went home.
Later on that night, Kristin came over. She showed up while I was watching American Idol w. the family. It’s a good show :). We were supposed to hang out with Conor, but I guess he couldn’t hang out anymore. We had a thunderstorm though, and that was pretty sweet. I wanted to dance in the rain, but there were worms everywhere and that kinda creeped me out. We watched How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days ; aw it’s one of my favorite movies as well :). I ended up falling asleep on the couch and when I woke up I was really grumpy for some reason, so I flipped out at Kristin over nothing, but yeah. We went upstairs and had some Mosquito Pie.. well Kristin did at least. Grosssssss, it was a really good Apple Pie, but then a mosquito like flew out of it and that ruined my appetite. I don’t know how Kristin still ate it. But yeah, then we went up to my room and got ready to go to bed. We ended up just laying down talking for a while and watching Boiling Points until we fell asleep.
The next morning, Kristin had to wake up and leave early to go to running, but I just layed around for most of the day. I finished up watching the movie we had on last night, and then I got in the shower. At around 230 I had to be at the high school to load the bus for the game at Barrington. I definitely was not in the mood to go sit outside for another few hours, especially because I wasn’t feeling good. I brought a Kleenex box with me and that came in handy when I had to blow my nose about 100 times. Ugh, it sucks to be sick, but I’m not anymore so that’s good.
Anyway, we got to the school and the game started la de da. But then some freaking lame kid on the Barrington team hit the Umpire in the head with the ball. So that turned into major chaos and we had to have this whole Sports Medical Team come and ice his head while he was laying there in the field with his legs up on a chair. That took forever just trying to get him to feel better before they took him away on a little golf cart. Then we had to wait another 20 minutes for a new Ump to come. Geeze, what a crazy day. Barrington ended up creaming us and all I have to say is that I hate that school now. Although, they did announce my name as the manager over the speaker, so that was pretty high tech and I felt special :).
Game ended, so we headed back home. Once I got back to my house, my dad went and got me some pasta from Portillo’s/Barnelli’s and it was really yummy. So I ended up staying home all night because I was sick and I really wasn’t in the mood to do anything. Basically it wasn’t too much of an exciting night.
Friday I got to sleep in for once because I didn’t have baseball :) so that was exciting. I layed around for most of the day, watched some MTV, and then at night I went out to dinner to Galati’s with the fam. I saw Kyle Munoz there with his parents, aw how cute, so my mom and his mom chatted for a bit and what not. Dinner was really fun; we had a lot of funny discussions. Then when we got back from dinner Jessica picked me up and we headed over to Blockbuster. I was in the mood for Mary Kate and Ashley movies, so we headed over to the little kid section and looked around. I had to use the “Bubble Gum, Bubble Gum” method in order to decide which movie we should get. We ended up getting the movie When in Rome , as well as Little Black Book.
So once we got to her house, we popped in When in Rome first. It was alright, I’ve seen much better movies from the Olsen twins, and this one was more bottom notch I’d have to say. Well, we didn’t really want to watch the other movie, so we put in Season One of Sex and the City. We watched a couple episodes of that and then she drove me home.
I got home and went online for a little bit. Then, as I noticed it was getting pretty late, I went upstairs and layed in bed for a while till I eventually fell asleep for the night.
Yesterday morning, I didn’t wake up on time and showed up like a half hour late to the first baseball game. I thought the game was supposed to start at 11 though, but turns out it started at 10. Oopsies. I brought some Ritz Chips though, so that was a good thing I guess. I got to do the scorebook this time because I didn't want to do the palm, and Starkie had already started the book when I got there. The book is so much easier than the palm pilot, because with the palm it's easy to get behind, but the book is just more straight forward and yeah. We slaughtered them by the bottom of the 5th inning, so we got to go eat lunch before the next game.
Heather called me so I was on the phone with her the whole time and didn’t end up eating anything. Then Cory was trying to be a jokester and mock me while I was on the phone. Haha it was so funny though, he was pretending I was talking to a guy and he was like “Hey baby, I love you; I hope I can see you tonight, kiss kiss.” That made me laugh.
The second game turned out to be a blast. I talked with Mitz and JT for most of the game, and we were amused by the other team member’s names. Haha Shrimp and Fish, oh man I love them. Then Cory was being a bafoon and playing with my phone. But yeah, we ended up slaughtering Belvidere again, and it was amazing.
I went home and relaxed for a while. I watched some more MTV and just layed around. Then I had dinner with everyone during dinner time, and afterwards Jessica picked me up again. We headed over to Target because I am in love with that store. We saw a lot of cute things, as well as some VERY cute things for Heather :). We are basically the best friends anyone could ever have. So we cooked up a little something special for our BFF :) although it’s for her birthday, which is not until December. Haha, what can I say, we’re psychos. But wow, we have the most brilliant plan ever and I’m sure Heather will love it; I can’t wait to give it to her!! We also came across some sweet face masks, it’s like mud that you put on your face and it’s supposed to moisturize and cleanse your pores, so we got 2 packets of that and we’re gonna use it the next time we have a sleepover, which will probably be like next weekend because we couldn’t have one last night. But yeah, we ended up just browsing around the store, I sprayed on a ton of body spray, and we had a little fun of our own looking at all the awesome stuff there was in Target! Anyway, after spending a while looking around and buying some sweet things, we left the store.
We got out into the parking lot, and I was standing at some random car thinking it was Jessica’s and I was holding onto the handle waiting for her to open the door, wondering why she was looking at me like I was crazy. Then I realized it wasn’t her car and I pretty much fell on the ground cracking up. This is definitely not the first time that has happened to me, I always get into the wrong car, or get cars mixed up for some reason. Haha, how lameeeee. But yeah, Jess and I were cracking up and I was about to pee in my pants, lol not that it hasn’t happened before. So we finally got to her car, and drove back to her house. Then we started brainstorming ideas for Heather’s lovely surprise and we decorated a special something and it turned out beautiful.
So yeah, that was pretty much the rest of the night, and then she had to drive me home kinda early. When I got in, the fam had just put on the movie Ray , so I sat with them and watched it. Aw, it was such a sad movie, but it was amazing. Jamie Foxx did awesome as Ray and it was just an incredible movie.
Then I had a tummy ache, so I just went upstairs into my bed and put the heating pad on my stomach so that made it feel much better. I fell asleep pretty fast after watching a few music videos that were on TV, so I dozed off quickly.
I woke up this afternoon around Noon and I haven’t been doing much all day. I was listening to a bunch of old songs that remind me of my childhood :) aw I love them. But yeah, I have no idea what I’m gonna do the rest of the day. It will probably be a very lazy day for me, as all Sundays usually are. I have to get in the shower soon, and even though it’s already almost 4, I haven’t eaten anything all day, so I might make something for myself to eat.
Well I guess that’s all for now. I hope you all enjoy the last day of Spring Break. It was fun, too bad it’s gone. L
