Prom, senior skip day, etc...

This has been a ridiculously good couple of days.

Currently, it's 8:13 Sunday night. I'll begin my recap Thursday at around 7:50 a.m.

Entering my first hour class, AP lit, my brain is alive with wonder as to what will be accomplished in the class on this day, as the majority of the class will not be present due to the AP lit test that I didn't take.

For the entire 55 minute class period, we played Catch Phrase. I kinda hate that game, but absolutely love it at the same time. I think I won two rounds, but of course neither of them earned me extra credit like the first two rounds would have.

Second hour was average, and having spare time, I took a trip to Conoco to fill my dangerously low gas tank. 35 Dollars gone at this point.

During fourth hour, I went and got my prom tickets. Another 40 dollars gone.

Also during fourth, I bought a ticket to Iron Man 2 (more on that later) costing me 10.50.

Lunch cost 5.

Picking up my tux=81.

Total spent on Thursday: $171.50.

Ouch.

After school I spent time with Siara, and attempted to take a nap, for I would be seeing the midnight premiere of Iron Man 2 that night.

The nap completely failed, and at about 10 Jeremy and Ben showed up to carpool to Pasco for the movie.

We arrived at roughly 10:30, and met up with the group of loud teenagers waiting in line. We where there for about 10 minutes before the doors opened, and we entered Theatre 12 to wait for the movie to start.

Growing up, I ran into several groups of loud, annoying, rude teenagers that I hoped I would never be part of. Sadly, reality has crushed this dream on several occasions lately.

I don't feel too badly for being a group of annoying people that night, as it was just a big empty room with nothing going on for the hour we spent yelling.

We sang Happy Birthday to Sabrina at 11:45....It wasn't anywhere near her birthday, but we got most of the people in the theater to join in.

The movie was pretty good, but I wish Scarlet Johansen would have gotten more screen time. Hell, I would have been okay if she replaced RDJ completely.

After the movie, about 10 of us where still buzzing with energy, and so we decided to meet at Sherri's. I had a malkshake, and we were there until about 4. I was kinda delirious by the time we left, in a good way.

The night ended with Ben's motorcycle failing to start. Using all of our knowledge we gained from auto, we deduced he was out of gas.

Second hour this year was definitely well spent.

3 hours later, I woke up to start Friday. Again, I chilled with Siara for a while, and around 12 we took off to go the the senior skip day bbq.

When we first arrived, I was sort of annoyed at everyone there. The clique-ness was kinda sickening, but as the day progressed people seemed to actually step out of their comfort zones a bit.

It was just a friggin great time overall I thought.



Pictured is everyone at the BBQ except me...Because I took the picture. Oh well, I still think it's pretty cool how over 100 of us showed up.

The rest of the day was dedicated to working. It ranked as one of the more hellish days I've put in at CBRC. Kids where extremely hyper and bratty, one child went into hysterics every time another child touched him, I was functioning on 3 hours of sleep, it was just blah.

I went to bed around 11, and woke up at 11 on saturday. GG yall.

Saturday, or Prom, went by incredibly slowly until 5 o'clock when things started whizzing by faster than I cared for.

I got to drive a 2009 Chevy Silverado LTZ Crew cab, much to mine and Siara's enjoyment.

She had no idea I would be driving the beastly vehicle last night, and so I decided to make it into sort of a cool suprise.

At about 5, Blake and Pete met at my house. 20 minutes later, I drove the truck, and Blake drove my car to Lauren's (where Siara was getting ready). We parked a few houses down, and switched vehicles. I drove my car the rest of the way to Lauren's, while Blake stayed behind with Pete. When we got back to my car, I attempted to open the door for her, but it was locked....As was the trunk and the driver door.

I did this on purpose, and pretended I had locked my keys in the car. After minute of freaking out, I called my "Dad" (Blake) and said I need him to come unlock the car. Blake then drove up in the truck, parked in front of us, and I said to Siara "Eh, let's take this thing instead."

I opened the passenger door, and Pete handed her a rose, while giggling.

She was just kinda confused at first...But when she figured out I had planned the whole thing she thought it was "cute."

We got back to my house at 6, precisely when we told everyone to be at my place for pictures. Ozzie and Vanessa where the only ones there at the time, and I figured everyone else would be there soon.

Our entire group wasn't together until about 6:45, which was 5 minutes after our dinner reservations. Oops.

Group picture:



We didnt get to the dance until about 9, and waited in line for pictures until almost 9:45.

So we only danced for a little more than an hour.

PERFECT.

Three hours is beyond to much, in my opinion. So I thought we hit the sweet spot. After the dance we came back to my house to play poker (sorta) and watch Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs.

The night ended around 3am, and sleep began for me around 4.

Senior prom was a ton of fun, and more than worth the high price tag.

Yup, that's what has been going on in my life.
