greetings, i am in much better spirits. mostly due to food and shopping, which in my world, are the equivalents of heroin. unfortunately eventually the combination of these two may not entirely coincide, seeing as one day i will probably eat enough to make me far too large for the clothes i buy. currently, though, it is my morphine.
lets see. on tuesday after going to sleep at 5:30 i woke up at 8. alyssa came by once more, because we like to make ourselves as miserable as possible, then left. my mom said it was the saddes thing she's ever seen. she should be thankful she didn't witness us at 3am. anyway. so, i spent the day eating as much as possible. i probably ate more than the entire country of ethiopia consumes each year. then i seriously considered going to anthropologie and just staying there until they closed and had to kick me out because that place is sanctuary. nothing bad can happen in anthropologie. anthropologie is to me as tiffany's is to holly golightly. but then i had to go babysit, and ended up being in charge of four boys under the age of ten with severe inclinations towards swordfighting. i was not in the mood for such shenanigans. who gives their children a wooden samurai sword? so anyway, i used my extreme height to create an arsenal of their variety of swordlike objects on the very top of the tallest cabinet and probably deemed the no-fun babysitter, which was really distressing for about .2 seconds then i got over it. then i went home and moped some more. none of this is helped by the fact that whitney left wednesday morning so i knew i had to go repeat this process all over.
so then i went bowling with nicole lauren mark sunny daniel and whitney. i didn't bowl, because Bowl America gives free games for A's on a report card, but all i can find is my 3rd quarter report card and they won't accept that, bastards. also, i'm pretty sure, had i tried to operate a bowling ball at 11pm after 2 hours of sleep the previous night, the results would not have been overly fortunate or safe. so i watched. and operated the little computer-scorecard thing and intercommed the alley people for help, because it was really ghetto and required service every 3 frames. then i started to fall asleep and they were still going strong (this is liek the 5th game) so even though i don't want to leave early on whitney's last night i really am not entirely sure i would have made it home alive if i had stayed any longer. so i left, and it was sad, but no tears, mostly because (1)i had no tears left (2)whitney isnt much of a crier (3)whitneys school is an hour away from my school.
so yesterday was not so bad, i had a day off from goodbyes and so took a day off from socializing in general. i babysat kyle all day blahblahblah, went and got a tv and a printer with my dad, watching veronica mars and sex and the city with my mom, made smoothies, and stopped being a glutton. today is meggies last day so i have to go say goodbye to her a bit later. i'm getting used to this. i guess it's good that the hardest one was first? i got my menangitis shot, which of course doesnt protect against the most deadly form of menangitis, so i feel pretty safe.
so! today my mom and i went shopping, with the intention of getting more dorm stuff, but since i'm pretty much covered dormwise we went elsewhere in the mall. it was the old mall so we only went to victorias secret and gap and old navy. but i got 3 pairs of flat shoes from old navy and a pair of jeans (!!!!) and cords from gap. which are both long enough. and really, if i am ever in a terrible mood and find long jeans, it's enough to keep me high for awhile. i'm really not kidding. yes i'm that materialistic. but you really just have no idea. anyway. i'm going to go to dinner with andrew and nicole now. this entry was unnecessarily long, i apologize.
