P-A-R-T-A-Y!!!!

I've been sleeping all day! Seriously! I went to a sleepover party yesterday and stayed up till.....4 or 5 am. So, been doin' some serious catchin' up!

Erica and her mom picked me up for the party since my dad was at my grandpa's house doing something and my mom doesn't get off of work until 5:30 and I had to be at A's house by/around 5:30. See, that's why I can't wait to get my license--you get so much freedom!! Yes, I need more practice (make that A LOT more) but I can't wait (who teenage girl can?)

The party was fun! It was great to see all my friends again, all together (Michelle couldn't come since she was at her cabin :(  Haven't seen her all summer! That's too long!)

We went to see Avatar in 3D! I have to admit that this was my first time seeing Avatar (I know, what's wrong with me?) I didn't think I'd really like it at first but I was wrong! This movie is frickin' AMAZING!! I don't know why I didn't see it sooner! It's soooooooo goooooooood! I love it!

After the movie, we all hung around the mall (the movie theater was in the mall, just to let you know). All the good stores were closed (well, it was 10:30 or so) except for Borders and A bought this collection of scary stories we read later that night. Oh, and one of our gal pals went up to the register when it was closed and A said that if she did that (our gal pal) then A would buy a belly dancing kit. Haha, this kit had these tiny little cymbals and I think (actually I hope) you put them on your fingers or something. I don't have any experience with belly dancing so I have no idea whatsoever. It looks.....interesting though.

We also went to CUB and got 10 goldfish bags for $10! Giggles has a secret love affair with goldfish (especially the rainbow kind) so we had no choice but to get them. They were nummy!!

So, we went back to A's house, (A got a super cute haircut! AND she dyed her hair a pretty red color--you all know how I love red! It looks so good on her!) hung out and talked, ate a record of 3 (yes, 3) bags of goldfish, read scary stories (I absolutely suck at reading scary stories. I can't keep a serious face. I probably could but....nah). Oh! There was this one story about a person turning into a horse and other people turning into horses and they described this guy 'riding her across the field' or something like that. Yeah, I intended it to sound bad. Haha, we were laughing so hard! And then it said, 'you want to do it' or something and we all lost it. Half of us were crying and the other half couldn't catch there breath! All of our abs hurt from the laughter!

We went to bed at around 4 or 5 am and didn't get up until 10-ish. I woke up at 8:40 to see what time it was since it was pretty light out. I was surprised by how early it was (for a sleepover). I went back to bed. My eyes felt like sandpaper.

I woke up again at 10 and decided to get ready (my mom was going to pick me up at 11 and she tends to come earlier than the time she states, which sucks. There's never a good time to leave a sleepover).

When I was in the bathroom putting my brush away and was lifting my bag up (it's a brown felty material) I noticed it was sticking to something. After it was off the counter, I noticed some wax or something was stuck to it. Ugh. I tried getting it off (it's only a tiny spot on the bottom, the size of a thumbnail) but it's a pain in the butt! I'm thinking maybe it'll harden/dry and I could peel it off. But till then, it's not a big deal. I was wondering when a thing like this was going to happen (trust me, things like this seem to happen to me all the time. I just got a new shirt and already there's a chocolate stain on it! And it's light colored fabric!) But yeah, I'll find a way to get it off. No biggie.

OMG!! In A's yard there was a dying squirrel :(  A's dad had put some peanut butter with some poison in it out earlier and it ate some. It was sooooo sad. A's little brother and his friends found it and were poking at it with some sticks and a life saber thing (or whatever you call those Star Wars stick thingies that light up). A ran out there and started touching it (don't worry, she had garden gloves on). I ran out too. It was so sad. I wanted to help it but knew I couldn't--it was too far gone.

I hate poison. Obviously the squirrel was in pain and was dying slowly. Imagine how the poor thing felt? Imagine what it was thinking? UGH!!!! Call me weird or whatever you want, but I hate seeing things in pain/dying. I know it's natural sometimes but in some cases it can be prevented.

On a more positive note, I gave my friends a humungo group hug before I left (I tapped A's foot since she was still sleeping. Didn't want to wake her since I find it annoying when people do that to me) and went home. A's dad was just making pancakes and I felt bad that I didn't eat any (I had to leave, duh) but I was still stuffed from all the Skittles and goldfish from the night before. So, it's all good.

I took a shower and went to sleep. I love naps. They feel soooooo good!! Especially after a long day of school (those are the best).

Oh, and mom and dad went to Fleet Farm last night and bought me a HUGE Hershey's candy bar with almonds!! YUM!! I don't know why they did that. I'm trying to eat healthier and I just inhaled a lot of junk food the night before. BUT, I love chocolate and chocolate is good for you (that is if you don't eat it ALL the time) so I said thank you and ate it......all. Yes, I ate the whole thing. Today. And I'm paying for it. I'm super full and my tummy sounds like somethin' fierce is goin' on inside it. But it was so goooooood.

Lots o Love,
