Met up with Melodie at my house around 1:15ish and then we walked to the s59 bus stop. We then transferred to the s79 from the mall and continued our journey to Eve’s house. We got there when it was almost 3, but it’s ok because it all generally worked out.

I keep having dreams about my mom leaving for Malaysia - I don’t really like thinking about it so I’ve been waking up pretty early, for myself anyways. I skipped breakfast (obviously the healthy thing to do) because I assumed I’d be eating a lot at Reylyn’s house…as usual (a correct assumption). I was really lazy to leave my house so I just texted Amy that I was rolling around on my floor, when in fact I was not. I was sitting in front of the computer - but that sounds really boring.

After the English regents - which took be longer than expected because the short answers were so silly, we went off on the s79 to Bay Ridge, where Meredith had found this burger place called Hinsch’s.
I was the first one to arrive at Rey’s house and she was typing up her lab so I sat on her really comfy couch until Amy arrived. Reylyn pushed me off the couch to get the door for her, but Amy ended up walking right in anyways - magically. Then when Sharon rang the doorbell or whatnot, we had Amy hide behind the wall to scare her. It was so perfect :D We made, well rather, everyone ‘cept me helped make oreo truffles as I watched. I took a lot of pictures though for what it’s worth :o
For all the pictures (I assure you there is a lot more), Click Here!
First off, I have no idea who took what pictures. As Clifford put it, the pictures were blurry ‘cus he was “testing the waters,” but I’m pretty sure no one ever finished “testing” these “waters” since at least 80% of them were shakey. I only took about, five pictures that night? ;/ Anyways, I tried to salvage what I could by making them smaller.
It was a really enjoyable night and a great way to start Thanksgiving Break. Lots of playing, eating, and laughing.

I was able to sleep for an extra fifteen minutes since I had already planned out what to wear the previous night. I got ready really fast, and as usual, I just slouched around for about twenty minutes until we left the house at around 8:50-ish. Then I realized I forgot my phone so my dad made a turn and I got down to get it. I secretly kept on my shoes as I went upstairs and across the living room and hopefully my mom didn’t notice when she got home. It still feels all wrong to wear shoes inside of a house, especially because of the sound of footsteps on the stairs.
Without an iPod, I don’t have a sense of time in the morning anymore, and my phone dies quickly - so I don’t like keeping it on the entire night. I wake up really early now, thinking it’s really late. After breakfast, I decided to go back to sleep and while I was reading, (yes, reading), I heard Big Bang’s Love Song come on on TV and my mom said she’d knew I’d come down for that. Ohman. Anyways, fast forward a couple of hours and I was on the way to the grocery store to buy $35 worth of food.
[August 5 2011]
I woke up a couple of times during the morning, once at 7:14AM, I’m not really sure why. Then Monica called me at around 10, asking about bowling, and a couple of seconds after I hung up, Melodie texted me. It’s like they KNOW. So I laid in bed texting for a bit, I really had a major braindead moment ‘cus I was sending texts and when they responded I forgot what I sent.
Deciding to finally wake up, I ate a muffin. Then I went back to sleep only to wake back up at around 1PM. I changed, watched some Heartstrings and before I knew it, it was near 2-ish. Melodie told me that Emma wasn’t coming anymore so we didn’t have to leave so early, but I was already on my way. I walked all the way there, then I walked back home since I forgot something.
Finally close to 2:30ish, I walked to Melodie’s house AGAIN. I told her that there was a dead fly corpse that was partially done decomposing stuck on her door. I’ll fast forward from here since nothing all that important happened.
At bowling, (there was Lyanne, Eve, Marta, Meredith, Melodie and I, then Monica came later) we got that $40 for 1.5hrs of bowling, pizza and soda. We generally did okay. /Getting lazy on typing. I got really moody though. LOLIDK. D:
After hour 1.5 hour was up, we exchanged our shoes and decided what we wanted to do next. Lyanne couldn’t go to Eve’s house, so I suggested we play some volleyball somewhere, like the beach so we could all still be together. Majority agreed and the plan was set. Lyanne’s dad picked us up at the Bowling Alley and off we went. :D
We walked around the beach and took photos, then we actually played volleyball.
We camwhoared a bit more on the boardwalk and at last, we made our tragic departure. Eve’s stepdad was here to pick us up to go to her house.
Sitting around, we all decided to bake a pie since Eve, being the witch she is, had most of the ingredients anyways, but we still needed to buy blueberries - not because she didn’t have any, but because she didn’t have enough.
Everyone was being really productive, and all I did was cut the butter and did some pulsing on the mixer. Then I walked around taking pictures and being bothersome to Eve especially. At one point, she was looking at the computer and I walked over and said, “boo.” to get her to turn around and then I blew in her face. :l I guess she was so thrown off that she mixed the words, “SAM” and “DAMMIT” to create “SAMMIT.” Ahahaa, badass.
The lady from the grudge is cooking. LOL. /Meredith’s hat makes everyone look more hipster.
Marta and Melodie made good s’mores. First time having them. :D The night felt really good outside, especially with the firepit. My camera can’t handle taking pictures at night. ]:
Melodie and I left at 10:30ish before we were able to bake the pie, but that’s alright because apparently to Eve, we won a contest and earned ourselves a slice. I went home and ended up staying up until almost 4AM talking on AIM.
[August 4 2011]
The day at work went by pretty easily since I didn’t have to do a lot of tutoring since a lot of kids were absent for some reason. My boss made us do a Dunkin Donuts run which made all the teachers really happy, plus we got to get something for ourselves, too. Then second period we did nothing because we figured we would tutor last period, but it turned out that everyone was absent so…:D What an easy day. One of my bosses came in while I was braiding my hair - pretty awkward moment.
After work, Monica and I decided to go find Eve before heading off to the beach. Two buses had pulled up, an Express x1 and a s78 behind it. I walked to the s78 which was further in the back, and when I turned around looking for Monica she wasn’t there. Apparently, she was waiting on line to get on the x1. LOL, she didn’t notice what kind of bus it was. Ahahahaaa, I don’t even know anymore.
On the bus, I saw Chris Trang and Christian Cichon - but that’s not important. Monica needed to buy metro cards ‘cus she was going to see Maroon 5’s free concert the next day. We surprised Eve by sitting in her backyard area LOL, and we got to walk her dog. Monica went back home and we met up with her again at Miller Field. Oh, while sitting in the grass, we played a round of rock paper scissors where I won on the first turn ‘cus they all did scissors. LOL.
We walked around on the beach a bit more and decided to head back with Maxie, and then we’d go back out to South Beach for Beach VB. While we were leaving Miller Field, Jessie called out my name and I didn’t recognize her since I didn’t have my glasses on, but she ended up following us to Eve’s house, too. We sat around for a bit and then on our way back out, Maxie attacked Jessie. LOL, but nothing really happened.
We took the s51 to South Beach and then we found everyone. I didn’t really want to play with the pros ‘cus I figured I’d suck…a lot…so I peppered around with a bunch of people. For some reason, everyone was so squished together on the other side so I played about half a circle. .___. ERR’ONE’S SCAREDDD, obviously. Ahahaaa
Eventually, we got to play with a bunch of people from Curtis - but that was really bad. No one could pass, bump, or even know what setting was. .___. So I won’t talk about that ‘cus the general situation was pretty ugly.
We took a couple of group pictures and everyone went their separate ways. In the car ride to Reylyn’s house, we reminisced about Fourth Period lunch for a bit, but in general it was a nice car ride, the weather was nice and the sky was pretty. At her house, Melodie, Emma, Reylyn, and her cousin, Carol sat in the living room watching Project Runway until we made a last minute decision to go to grocery store and buy food. I finally got that cinnamon roll I was craving for all week. It was such a relaxing day. :D
