Corsage

So this year for prom, instead of going out and buying one, my mom decided we are going to make it. It wasn't too bad, it was actually kind of fun, and it turned out amazing.

There are feathers and beads and fake flowers. And the most amazing part, I got the drosage and the buteneer and and a necklace for half the price of just a corsage. And this one will keep forever, it wont die after a week. So I am so excited about wearing it. It has an elastic band to around the wrist, but also teal and gold ribbons are attached to tie around my wrist.

I actually think it's better than anything I could have gone out and bought at a florist.

YARD SALE!!!!!

Every year we have a yard sale, but this year it is coming a little late.

I love having one because I feel like it's a good way to make money and get rid of junk...

Well in the past I always sold a lot but also kept a lot at home because I figured "one day" I'll use it. So I got to thinking this year and I thought about how college is just right around the corner.

So I went through things and took out everything I don't use, don't like, or won't use between now and college, or won't need in college.

And that quickly added up and this is this first year I am actually excited about working at the yard sale!

Bar B Q Fest.

I CANT WAIT!!!

I love the Bar B Q Fest. I always work the Thurday and Friday after school and then Saturday I hit the streets. I go out with my family and we sample every type of food we can.

And favorites are:

Banana Boats (minus the peanut butter)

Lemonade Shake Ups

Old Hickory Pulled Pork Sandwiches

Moonlight Burgoo


I get this all over an extended dinner. For lunch, I am usually working the parking lot again, so I send my dad for funnel cakes and lemonade shake ups...I just cant wait for all the good food and warm weather to come!!!!

Left Alone

So, at dance, seniors get seniority on everything, even when it comes to the lead parts. They even get to have a solo thier senior year and they pick the song and create the dance. Well, they have always had like 4 or 5 seniors each year...well, there are only two juniors this year, which means only two seniors next year. So I thought that would be ok, that even makes things better, because we can have more room in the program and longer dances. This seemed perfect to me. I would be a senior and there wouldn't be too many others, and there wouldn't be just me...

I was wrong.

Last week, the other senior rolled her ankle over and is now on crutches for 6 weeks. she plans on coming back to dance, but that is a big game of chance. Everyone I know who has messed up an ankle NEVER returns. So this leaves me all alone, and I don't know wether to be grateful or scared. Grateful for the attentio? Or scared because of all the pressure?

Going Good...

I started my job last night, and it was pretty fun. I have to say I really enjoyed it. My boss texts me my schedule each week, and just the fact he texts is pretty amazing. And all I do is work concessions at Fisher Park. And that is a pretty easy job if you ask me.

Also, my boss told me I could eat whatever I want and whenever I want. Like last night I ate a frozen kit kat, some popcorn and drank a couple cokes (fountain cokes, not bottles) and this was a pretty small amount. All the other workers ate like 3 pizza slices a piece and ate tones of nacho chees with beef jerky and popcorn.

So, all in all, I think I am going to like this job...
