| Sunday. 9.2.07 12:00 pm All right, so I've been neglecting this blog for a little while, but it just seemed like it was one thing after the other and then by the time I actually got to a computer, I was too tired to even think about posting. But, I am here again and ready to update and catch up on everything that's happened since I last posted. Here we go...
Friday, after the whole Bob Incident, I wake up to my friend Becky saying my name and then crawling into my bed. Lovely. I had a doctor's appointment that morning, so me and Becky and my mom all crowded into the little room and waited for my doctor to come and tell me the results of my MRI. Oh, by the way, MRIs suck. Anyway, turns out that my head and everything was okay. There are these two little things in my neck that are out of line, though, and they said it wasn't anything serious, that it might just cause some discomfort. The one doctor said that it looked like I had been in a car crash, which I haven't, so I'm going to guess that it was caused by one of the times I've fallen off of my horse.
After we were done at the hospital, we headed over to Best Buy. Becky and I bought some CDs, and then we ran into our friend, Cody. After talking to him for a while, we all decided to meet up at the mall. haha. Once we were there, we walked until we found the KayBee Toys and then we went in and played with all the toys. Some people would call that immature, but we had a blast. Cody left us then, so me and Beck headed over to Bath and Body Works and smelled all the "try me" things, chose which one we liked, then sprayed ourselves with the body spray and rubbed on the moisturizer.
The pretzel place was our next stop, and that is when my mom met back up with us and I did some school shopping. Great. After buying some jeans, we decided to conclude our day out with dinner at Back Bay, a local seafood restaurant. That's where the real fun was. You see, my birthday was August 8, and we me, my mom and dad, and my friend Caity all went to Back Bay then too. They got the bright idea to have the waitors sing happy birthday to me, and it was more than just embarrassing. Mom kept telling Becky how great it was while we were there on that Friday, so when she had to go to the restroom, Beck and I decided to have some fun. I flagged down a waitress, told her it was my mom's birthday, and the plan was set into motion. Later on, we hear this clapping, and Mom looks at me and asked where they were going, and all I said was, "Happy Birthday, Mom."
I got the scariest glare ever the whole time they were singing, but I hardly noticed because I was laughing so hard. Becky and I have pulled pranks on my mom before, but that was by far the greatest. Mom swears that she'll pay us back one day, but that's okay. Beck an I have heard it all before.
We went home that night and watchined Wild Hogs, then me and Beck stayed up until around 4 just talking and laughing and all that. The next morning, we started watching some of Scary Movie 4, but then she left and I don't really remember what I did the rest of the day. Sunday, I went to my grandparents house for a late Christmas with a family friend. Those are always nice.
Monday, I went out on a trail ride with my friend Caity. We took her horses, and it was really fun. We didn't do a whole lot of running because I didn't really think I could handle it, but we had fun just talking and riding. There was this tree though that really got me. I don't know how to describe it, but the branches were all hanging down and Precious, the horse I was one, just ran right through them. I put my head down so that the braches would hit my helmet, and to try and push those branches out of the way, I put my arm up. Bad idea. Precious and I got through the branches, but I had, and still have, cuts all the way down my arm. Battle scars, baby! haha. The rest of the trail ride went smoothly, with the exception of this one dog running at us. Fortunately, it was on a chain and the horses didn't even seem to notice.
Tuesday was the first day of school, that last first day of high school for me! Senior year!! My schedule isn't bad at all. First period, I'm an office assistant for one of the principals. All I've done so far is take phone messages and file papers. Second period is political science. The teacher is really awesome, though I did almost fall asleep during lecture yesterday. Third period, I have science. I don't really know a lot of people in there, but I've made new friends by the names of Natalie and Bridget. They're juniors, and I haven't gotten a lot of opportunities to talk to them before, but they're pretty cool people. After third period, I go to C lunch which I have with Caity and Becky and some other people that I know. When the bell rings to tell us that our lunch is over, I head off to fourth period, where I am a student aide for another teacher, which isn't hard at all. I get to help withe computer stuff and write junk on the board. That's my day in a nutshell.
During the last week, my mom and I tried to paint my room. I think we worked on it one night, and then we just stopped. Misty and my mom finished it on Friday, and then Mom and I spent a good part of yesterday putting it back together.
So, that's what I've been up to, and I hope to be able to get back on here as often as I was now that things are settling down and my room is back in order. [= Sorry, you do not have permission to comment. If you are a member, try logging in again or accessing this page here. |
