Feelin' Good like Michael Buble

Yesterday was a pretty good day, which is definitely saying something, because it was a Monday. Now that I think about it, my whole weekend was pretty awesome too, starting with Friday. All the Honors English classes at my school went to Indy to see Julius Caesar at the IRT theater. The play consisted of lots of spit, spit, some hand-washin' in blood and some bromance. Oh yeah, and spit. Seriously though, they were like fountains. It was kind of gross.

After the play, we walked over to the Circle Centre Mall, which was awesome. Who doesn't love going to a mall instead of school? Win? I think yes. We didn't get to stay that long but it was still fun. I got some Japanese Maki chicken. Woop. And a new pair of shoes...but they hurt my feet...but I'll find some way to fix them. Then, we drove home.

I love field trips. 'Nough said.

I went to work after school on Friday and we had a good day! Two of the boys who are usually the trouble-makers were not there so that helped a lot. Plus, it was super pretty and nice outside so I had fun on the swings with the kids.

Then, on Saturday, I went to a Mormon party at my friend's house. I love Mormons so much. They're so awesome. We played Curses for a bit, kind of. That's such an embarrassing game if you have never played it before.. I ended up having to dance, bite my tongue, swat invisible mosquitoes around my head, tell a person how I'm going to crush them (because I'm a professional wrestler), and say a rhyme (because I'm a professional rapper) every time I talked. Man, oh man.
Then, we watched Insidious, which I had already seen. It was so funny because all the guys that were there were NOT, definitely not, afraid to show how afraid they were hahah. I loved it. One boy had a blanket wrapped around his head the whole time; another was yelling at the screen for the duration of the movie. It was so funny.
Next on the agenda, was hide-and-seek. Outside. In the dark. After watching a scary movie. I got a little freaked out at times. First, I hid in a huge pine tree and they almost didn't find me but I kind of gave up because both my legs were asleep from the position I was sitting in. One of the guys just sat on the swing set with his head on his lap and they must have passed him at least ten times. Oh, obliviousness. You get me every time.
That was super fun.

Then, church on Sunday. Always good.

And then yesterday was a pretty good day. School was just school but work was actually fun! Jason, who is usually awful was REALLY good. Like abnormally. I'm still a little weirded out by it. I played football with him for a while and then he played with our down-syndrome girl, Payton, who cracks me up every day. It was really sweet.

So, that's been the past few days, and they have been fantastic. Let's hope the rest of the week will live up to it's predecessors.

My New Best Friend

Pinterest is my new best friend.. I was looking at their DIY crafts basically ALL day. Well, not really, but it felt like it. I'm not really a member yet (I'm waiting on my sister to invite me..) so I just saved all the pictures of stuff I liked onto my computer. I want to do these things:
