It's several months late, but...

Happy New Year, everyone! It's only 9 minutes until the New Year here, and I'm listening to a bunch of music. Snowy (Hey Oh) by Red Hot Chili Peppers, Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol, so many songs.

Then I came to Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin. Remember that song being played in CTY? Well, at the last dance, when it came up, almost cried. But I couldn't, for some reason. I'm listening to it right now, and I don't know why, but I finally got a tear out, because I started thinking about CTY. One tear, that's all, but I guess I cried, 5, 6 months late.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!!! =)

Just here to wish everyone a smashing 2007!

make me feel tiny if it makes you feel tall oh but there's always someone cooler than you

ahh catchy song. :D anyway i had big news to tell but then i read the recent posts and i still can't comment so i'll do it in my post again:

sarah!! EEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!! your post made me SO so so so happy, even with the end and everything it is still amazing and i am so happy for you :D email a picture of kevin or something, i bet he is a cute nerd. :D

and m.e. i am sorry about your past new years and stuff. =/ next year plan super ahead so it won't be as sucky, like maybe plan to get together with friends or have a party or something. it might work! =)

but anyway, here is the big bad (wolf) news (hahahahahah i wrote wolf because "big bad wolf" hahahaha you get it? i am so funny (not) HAHAHA) : I HAVE HIVES AGAIN!!!!!! SO stupid and annoying, i had just a little bit a few days ago when i was sleeping over at my friends. we were watching mean girls and i had to keep on reaching into my jeans and itching my butt because it was just SO unbelievably itchy and then i looked later and there were disgustingly deformed bumps all over them.

anyway, it just got worse these past few days, and now they are EVERYWHERE, like in my armpits and boobs and my BELLYBUTTON, and my FACE. GROSS!!!!!!!! but the worst part is my face of course, because as of right now my right eye is swollen to the point that it literally hurts trying to open it wider (i tried prying it open with my fingers this morning but it did not work) and my lips are swollen huge, like a bratz doll's lips, and i am just overall red and blotchy and it looks.. ABOMINABLE! (i just looked on thesaurus.com because i didn't want to use "disgusting" or "gross" again. neehee nerd i am :P)

i won't describe myself any more because even i am getting uncomfortable. so now, i don't know. last time we went to the doctor's, the allergist said that i was probably getting them because of a "viral infection" and not a "food / environment allergy" and "if i waited it out for 2 weeks they'll go away on their own."

.......

2 WEEKS!!!! alskdfjaweruzkjlzcvjasfm okay i know i'm not going to take those steroids again since i'm most likely already super immune to them, but 2 weeks!!! meaning school! i have to go to school like this, AGAIN! (last year i had the same problem around october where i looked like this for almost a MONTH, and it was so bad. like, i'd walk through the halls and i could see everyone pointing and being like "EEEK! does she have PINK-EYE or something???" and of course it was a good exercising for my self-esteem but still, i'd rather never go through that again) so i don't really know what to do. =/ i was supposed to go to a sleepover tonight which would've been fun because we would've had chocolate fondue and done fun stuff but i know i will probably just make everything weird and too cautious, like everyone will be like "noo don't touch that you might get allergic and go into anaphylactic shock!!"

guh. this SUCKS. all i can do now is drink tons and tons of water and hope it'll get better by 7:00 tonight and maybe i can go to the sleepover, or otherwise i will stay home and possibly go to bed at 8 again and miss the new years stuff. >:( that is my angry face

>:( >:( >:( >:( see look how angry i am

well i guess i'll talk to you all later. (by that time it will be 2007!!!)
much love,
geena


ps: amita, i am so happy you're back in MA but i think my only free day would be tomorrow (jan. 1) and by then if i am still as repulsively ugly as i am today i think i will look too scary to be allowed to go out.... >:( grr. hope you figure something out anyway though

Course Catalog

Hey, I got my CTY course catalog for distance education, but not the one for the summer program. Did anyone else get their catalogs? Because online it says the first date you can send in your application by is January 25th. And for those of you who took the SAT, did you get your scores back? Because I haven't gotten those in the mail either.

Curse the crappy Staten Island postal service.

14 and Counting...

I don't think I have ever expressed to any of you my complete and utter HATE, LOATHE, and DETESTATION for the holiday known to us as New Years. It is my least favorite holiday EVER!! Even counting the who cares holidays like, Labor Day and stuff like that. I have never had a good New Years Eve in my ENTIRE LIFE. Never. Not one. Either I wind up sitting home with my mom and she makes me watch some movie with her that puts me to sleep at eleven thirty or I get dragged to some awful party with my parents friends and there are absolutely no kids there and I am bored out of my mind.

Last year I came so close to having a good New Years, but then all of my hopes were dashed away and I ended up having the WORST one of my entire life. New Years Eve was the day of the Dickens Festival, so I spent almost the entire day dancing and laughing with my friends and stuff, but then I had to go to my Aunt Diane's wedding (in her 50s, divorced, marrying her high school sweetheart who she got back together with after her divorce in the living room of their new house with an audience of 18 by a female minister named "Beloved"). And I was forced to go with my mom and her BOYFRIEND Philip (who I prefer to call Phippy) who I don't like at all. I am an extremely picky eater and there wasn't ANYTHING that I would remotely consider eating there so I ate nothing the entire night (with the exception of, like, 8 brownies at dessert) even though I had eaten very little the entire day anyway. And it didn't exactly help that Phippy, who LOVES to eat (even though he's diabetic and has, like, bladder cancer or something like that which he does nothing whatsoever to treat) was waving lamb chops in front of my face all night trying to convince me to eat them because he doesn't understand why I am so picky even though when he would wave the lamb chop in from of my face all I could see was the little lamb going "Bah! Bah!" and I just like, shook my head and ran away. In addition to this, like an hour after Dickens ended I developed a horrible sinus cold so I was sick the entire night and I had to spend the evening with my two dumb as post step cousins. Funny story. They're 16 year old twin sons of my Aunt Diane's new husband so she wanted to make them part of wedding service. Mike (one twin) said the Our Father and Vinnnie (the other twin) said the Hail Mary. But when Vinnie went to say the Hail Mary he couldn't remember the words so he said, "Hail Mary. OH SHIT!!!" In the middle of the service. So his older sister, who has, like, a kid, just said the rest of it. Yeah. My family. And then when we got home it wasn't midnight yet so I was watching TV in my room and my mother came in my room and started watching TV with me wearing one of Phippy's flannel shirts (he had already left) that he had given her and I got really mad and set that she either had to take the shirt off or get out and wound up pretty much screaming at her and crying and pretty much shoving her out of the room.

I doubt this year will be much better. My mother (even though she claims that she wants to break up with Phippy) is forcing me to spend YET ANOTHER New Years Eve with him. I have to go out to dinner with him and then we are going to see Dream Girls (my friend invited me to go see it with her, but I couldn't go because I was seeing it with Phippy. Well sort of. He always falls asleep during movies.) and then he's coming back to our apartment for dessert. And since he is a defence lawyer, all he does is cross examine me and grill me about my food choices even though my mom tells him not to. And I can't go to my dad's house because that is HIS girlfriend's birthday so he throws a party for her and all her friends and never even gives me the option to comes. I BEGGED my mom to let me stay home by myself because "if I am at home I can at least be productive while I wallow in my mysery. But if I got out then I will be forced to make pointless small talk while wallowing in my mysery." She said no. And none of my friends are throwing New Years Eve parties that I could potentially go to. And did I mention that I REALLY wanted to see the Broadway show Spamalot and even though my mom knew this she is going today with Phippy without me!?!? Okay I sound like a completely selfish attention hog right now. And I try not to be but it really does suck. Well, 14 bad New Years and counting. Hope everyone has a pleasant New Years anyway.

M.E.

P.S. Oh!! And BTW, email me or comment or something if you haven't gotten your secret santa gift yet. Just to get a feel for how many people we are waiting for to get their gifts before we reveal. I got mine already. It's awesomeness. And I got a bunch of other cool stuff for Christmas (digital camera of my own, iPod docking station, rug for my room, 17 books, etc.) Anyways, I just realized I have written a "Geena-esque" novel. Best of luck in 2007 everyone!!! God knows I need it.

Hugealicious

What do you say that we (hye,king,geena) meet at the hugealicious mall or someplace b4 January 4???????? is that even possible???????? Oh, and i just realized that it sounds like the High King Geena.



WEll, comment if you can or can't come and what time would be good 4 u.

...

I cannot remember my password or my username at all!! It is like seriously driving me insane. I tried all these different usernames and different passwords that i had in the past hoping that one of them would actually work. But all the different combos are like 30 in total nd i wouldnt have time to just sit nd type all these things and go back nd try again...ugh...wait..can someone just send me another invite thingy? cuz i think thatll be easier...-.-

man, these titles are getting worse and worse...

I got my secret santa gift today ^^ I know who it's from :B
It was a threadless T-shirt and I love it!! thanks to the secret santa who gave it to meh <3
I love it much.

I don't have too much literary inspiration these days. School is so boring, and I really hate my english teacher. She is old and exactly like the grinch combined with that mean old lady across the street. All she says is: "write an essay comparing story X to story Y". It's like, how the hellz am I supposed to write a decent essay about stories that I don't even like!?!

Well, I guess I might write something about Track, since I am on the track team now and I pole vault. I can't wait to get more air doing the pole vaulting. It's like the most dangerous event in track and field but it's also really extreme and fun. It's kind of frustrating, and a little scary, when you don't get it though. And since I'm a girl, and you need alot of upperbody strength; I feel like I'm getting man-arms, but it's still totally worth it. The few seconds you are in the air, it's really, well, I don't know how to describe it. Just cool.

Man, I wish I had a digital camera so you guys could see how I look. I look really, really different nowadays. I have bangs and a whole different haircut xD. I want a digital camera~ >.<

See ya ~X~

YES!!!!!!!

IT WORKED !!!!
i am relieved beyond belief!!!!
it almost rhymes :D yayayayayayay i can still post!!!!!!

ahhhh

something is wrong with my account

it's switched to like "the new blogger" or whatever where you have to log in with your gmail account? and now i can't post comments because "i am not a team member of this blog" and i don't even know if it'll work when i post this. but it's weird, is it happening to anyone else? i read some of the help articles but they don't really help. i don't know how to switch back to the "old blogger" so i guess until everyone switches to the new blogger like the articles say they will then i won't be able to comment or anything.

well anyway. if this post works then i still have other news:
I MADE THE 99TH PERCENTILE IN THE SSAT'S!!!!!! YES YES YES YES YES

(not the SAT's) this one is for private schools. i am very happy. :D but now i need to go finish the rest of the application stuff, eww

and, since i can't comment i guess i'll do it here if this works:
rae, that is GREAT with the donating thing you and your friend are going to do and that makes me so happy and i bet it will be super fun for you two too. and do you know why it's "happyness" with a "y"? is it just a theme in the movie or something? i want to see it! :D
cherry, bathrobes are wonderful, and plus i don't think you need to take the sat's again to get into cty. i am pretty sure your scores from 7th grade carry over until 11th. i think. =)

huh. this post was originally going to be around 3 sentences long. leave it to me to blab on until the scrollbar started getting short again. :P if this really doesn't post because "i'm not a team member" i will be pissed and .. i don't know what i'll be able to do. whatever we'll see. love you all lots!!! :D 4 days until 2007. :D or 3 days, i'm not really sure what day it is today whatever

love,
geena!!!!

shhhh

much thanks to everyone for not telling their secret santa and stuff cause even tho i KNOW who my ss is [:)], i didnt get the stuff yet. actually i'm happy cause i get to look forward to another present after xmas! for christmas i got cool stuff. a&f sweatshirt (THOSE ARE LIKE SIXTY FREAKING DOLLARS! I FELT SO SPOILED) + ipod speakers from my parents and lots of lotions, sprays, jewelry, and of course candy from friends. i have to say christmas was pretty fun this year. way excited for new years! happy christmahannukwanzika everyone :)

anyway today i saw the pursuit of happyness (with a y!) with a coupla friends. it was so sad! the ending was good but to be honest, i felt a bit queasy during it bcuz it was so sad. i wont give all of it away but it was about this guy and his son and they're really poor living in san francisco. it made me sort of realize i'm so lucky to have so much in my life and there are so many people who dont even have a home. so me and my friend made it our early new yrs resolutions to donate money to the poor by like singing or playing instruments in front of like random stores, u know like people toss u some change sometimes. i thought it was cool that the movie inspired me to be a better person. YAYYY

thats it ................. HOPE YOU GUYS HAVE A GREAT NEW YEAR :)

heyy

so how was ur christmas y'all?!!
mine was ok...
i went to atlantic city in southern jersey nd did nothing but order room service nd watch like 10 movies while my rents were at the casino winning money lol

my rents weren't in the giving mood nd didnt give much...just bought me a bathrobe..not as fancy nd big as i expected... :T

~cherry~

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ahhh I GOT MY SECRET SANTA GIFT and to the person who gave it to me (you know who you are :D), you are the absolute complete total BEST!!!!!!!!! BEST!!!!! i LOVE your gift so much (even though it was more like 4 gifts :D) the scarf is so soft i think i will end up sleeping in it :D :D :D yay i am so happy!!

hehe i went on a skiing trip for three days and i forgot to post saying i'd be gone. but that's okay it's probably not a big deal. we left on friday and went to this obscure unknown little place called sugarbush in vermont. it was scary driving there because there literally was no one there and the road was pretty much deserted. we went with maybe 5 other families (all asian, surprise) and shared two little condos. it was a lot of fun. me and albert are not very good at skiing so it was really scary at first and we were totally freaked out and i was screaming all the time, but in the end i think we got a little better. =) plus the lifts closed at 4, so when we weren't skiing we had nothing else to do in the condos. so, this guy michael chen brought season 2 of house and we watched that for probably 9 hours straight each day. it is a good show, but it's not great to watch one after another because each of the episodes are so similar. still it was fun. :D

and since we got back today we opened presents today. i must say the secret santa gift was by far the best. and then i got $20, some hair things, a weird chicken toy (from my grandma. LOL she gave albert a cat toy! it's one of those chew toys they put in their mouths and stuff, it's hilarious because i think she thought it was for kids but on the package it said stuff like "cats absolutely love it!!" "great for your furry friend!" etc. haha), 6 chapsticks (crazy!! when am i going to use that many?? although i guess it's good because i lose so many), a bunch of bracelets, a mug, three goodie bags full of chocolate, and earrings and a necklace my friend made and they are absolutely gorgeous. :D i didn't get anything for / from my dad. that wasn't supposed to happen but it seems a little awkward. :P i think i'll just make him a cd or something.

anyway, this year for gifts for other people i got a little bit lazy and i just ended up wrapping everyone a hershey's bar, like such: =)



that was my desk while i was wrapping everything. that was very stressful but it's OVER!! woohoo yet another reason i am happy. :D oh and here are some more pictures of my room, because umm, i have them. ;)





oh and these are my super cool pants. they are super cool.



lol okay that was fun. =) i like pictures. well, albert wants to play. merry late christmas everyone!!!!!!! and happy kwanzaa & boxing day today. :D only 5 more days of 2006!!!! i love you all!

love,
geena

Yippee!!!!!!!!!!!

MERRY CHRISTMAS, HAPPY HANNUKAH ALL!

Can someone make a draft post with the CTYCHERUBS password? I forgot it :(. Thanks!!

Hope

My English teacher, Mrs. Moran, is my favorite teacher. She challenges us, helps us, and even inspires us. Mrs. Moran's aunt was watching Oprah and Oprah gave $1000 to people in the crowd to use towards charity. Her aunt was so inspired that she decided to give each one of her neices and nephews $200 each to do the same. Mrs. Moran got her money and decided to have us make sugestions and we voted. The winner was the Devanna Center for Abused Children, which is center where children go to see their real parents so that they can learn how to control them without abuse. The center is right here in Braintree and everyone felt very strongly about it. Mrs. Moran called the director at the Devanna Center and told her that she would be making a donation of about $500 and the woman began to cry. The next day Mrs. Moran came in and told us that if we wanted to help then we could bring in some money. By the next day more than $700 had been raised. The next day $1580.30. When Mrs. Moran brought the money to the center the woman broke down in tears again. We had tripled what they had expected. When Mrs. Moran told us that she had delieverd the money she started to cry too. She was just so amazed that we were so eager to help and give those kids and their parents hope. Now Mrs. Moran is trying to get us in the Boston Globe and maybe even Oprah. So far we are in the Braintree Forum, the local newspaper.

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

festivities!!

christmas is coming! christmas is coming! christmas is coming! christmas is coming! christmas is coming! christmas is coming! christmas is coming! christmas is coming! christmas is coming! christmas is coming! wow its just mind-blowing. just yesterday seemed like the first day of november!

anyway its mostly the usual chaos. i'm wrapping my presents now and i realized i forgot to get 3 people something! shiz! and i feel so blonde. i was wrapping up my person's present for the secret santa and my mom told me that you cant mail packages unless u know their weight so u can add a certain amount of more stamps ...blahblah. =/

but other than that ive been really tired and quiet these days and teeny things get me so excited like secrets and little funny things and ill start laughing and talking nonstop then i'll like die down 5 mins later. but when it's the holiday season NOTHING can get u down! but of course, i'm dreaming of a white christmas :) it hasnt snowed yet in bridgewater :(

love you guys! <3333333333

My cat is currently sitting on my lap being adorable!!!

Hey everyone!!!

Okay, so does anyone here watch the show Dexter on Showtime?!?! IT'S SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's about this guy named Dexter and he's a forensic blood analysist, so he works with all of these serial killers, but he IS a serial killer and the season finally was this Sunday and it was the best show in the entire universe and I can't wait until next season or until this one comes out on DVD, whichever comes first. Plus, the guy who plays Dexter is HOT. Go to sho.com and click on the Dexter link for more info.

Blabity blah anyways, my teachers are sucky too. My social studies teacher is forever lecturing us about what a disappointment we are, my math teacher hits people over the head with books, in science yesterday my teacher made us dissect a worm and it was the most disgusting thing in my entire life and I came soooooooo close to throwing up, my English teacher treats us like fifth graders and is obsessed with her sixth grade math class (quote: "My sixth graders, they warm my heart.") and she lets them make a mess of the classroom and I'm in her homeroom so she makes us clean it all up, and my religion teacher doesn't really do much of anything. School is sucky.

More fun stuff: CHRISTMAS IS COMING!!!! What's everyone doing for the holidays? My Grandparents and my dad's girlfriend are coming to my house for Christmas Eve and then Christmas day I'm going to my cousin's house which is fun because my cousin is 18 and a dancer so we just go into her room and listen to music all day. I'm SOOOOOO overloaded in the ways of present making (I make pretty much all of my presents). The only one I've completed is the one for my dance teacher because I'm going to see her tomorrow and we're having a Christmas party at dance (dark blue beaded bracelets. came out gorgeous if I do say so myself). So I have loads to do. I'm mailing my secret santa present tonight. I think my person is REALLY gonna like it.

So I had a great birthday. Despite my school Christmas concert being on the same night. The Saturday before I had a sleepover with a few friends from school and we didn't go to sleep until 5 am but then we had to get up at like 8 because one of my friends had a dance class to go to and I had to go to this play my dad's friend was producing out in QUEENS so I spent an hour and a half in the backseat of the car with my grandmother on the Gowanus expressway in bumper to bumper traffic. The show was pretty good though. It's called Tim and Scrooge and it's a sequal to a Christmas Carol. The guy who played Tim was actually kinda hot (google images Bobby Steggart to see a picture. better looking in person.) Okay I sound really shallow becaue this is the second hot guy I have mentioned in this post. Don't worry I'm not obsessed or anything.

Did I mention I don't feel so well? I've got this lousy cold with a sore throat and the runny nose and all that kind of stuff. It's not fun. And I can't hear out of my right ear becaue I've got water or something stuck in it and it's pretty much clogged and I can't figure out how to get it out.

Book news: Can anyone reccomend a good historical fiction book? That's the next genre I have to do for my monthly book report. I just did a bio of Audrey Hepburn, but I didn't exactly finish the book but I was still able to do the project anyway. And before that I read the Catcher in the Rye. BEST BOOK EVER!!!!!! I LOVED IT!!!!!! All of you HAVE to read it.

Anyways. Hope to hear from you soon!!

M.E.

P.S. Happy Hannukah Sarah!!!

P.P.S. Angie- did you ever get the ecard I sent you for your birthday? I sent it December 1st, but I didn't get the confirmation email saying you'd opened it.

Falling Apart?

I think I might be getting what Raymond posted a while back...it's just...out of everyone, how long has it been since we've heard from each one? I don't know how long it's been since I've heard from Kingston, do I? It's just...I don't know, I really do feel like I'm lying to myself. First time I went to CTY, everyone pretty much disappeared after it was over. This year, we've tried to keep everything, but I'm not sure if it's really worked or if I'm lying to myself.

I don't know...I don't want to give up, but I don't think it's the same anymore. Maybe I just didn't try hard enough, but...it just doesn't feel right to me. Meeting someone and then not ever seeing them again but trying to keep in touch. Even seeing someone once a year feels better, but it's not certain, is it?

Maybe I'm being stupid, but I don't know anymore...

ahh i just ate tissue

hello!! what's going on? there hasn't been a post for a few days so i will post. =) so things have been alright. actually they have been pretty sucky ever since september compared to years past but i'm getting used to it. i am really mad right now about my teachers though. they are so unreasonable and immature and it makes me want to cry and tear out my hair and then throw my binders at them one by one. except for ms. eriksen who is our bisexual french teacher. she has actually turned into my favorite teacher this year. but that's because all of my others are poops.

it is so crazy, they are all just like kids! like my social studies teacher, mr. casey, he's like six foot four and as loud as.. well, really super loud, so everyone thinks he's really cool and stuff. but the thing is, he's super sensitive and he's all lke "ohh you guys make me laugh, you think you know EVERYTHING! well, lemme tell ya, i am SMARTER THAN ALL OF YOU!!! YES ALL OF YOU! NONE OF YOU ARE SMARTER THAN ME!!!!! I AM GREAT" seriously. and that is why i do not respect him. anyway, last friday we had a pretty big test and he was in a bad mood (like always). so someone pointed out that he spelled "orthodox" wrong or something like that and he totally blew up, like "WOW, you KIDS! you get SO bent out of shape about MY mistakes but you know, all of you make probably 100x the mistakes i do so SHUT UP!!!!" then a few minutes later someone asked what the exodus was, and he was like "kids. i COVERED this." and he didn't, so i said "actually i don't think we did." and at that point he stood up and bent over his desk and pointed at me screaming in his room-shaking voice for probably 3 minutes, and then he walked out of the room for a while, and then walked back in and kicked his desk and started throwing things away. it was freaky and everyone was like okayy. TOUCHY MUCH? and so today he came back and he literally lectured us the WHOLE period, all like "your attitude's gotta change, and now look i UNDERSTAND this and that..." like he knows everything and he just KNOWS he's right and it bothered me so much. i was ready to talk back and then walk out of the classroom but i didn't. but i think it will happen someday.

well i don't know, i don't know if i'm making any sense. but all the teachers are just like that, like they think they are so all-knowing, and then you can never be honest with them and say what you feel. you have to totally suck up and that's just not something i will ever do, and that is why i'm not having such a good year school-wise. like, whenever i actually like the teacher and stuff and i can be myself, i always have a good time in school. but this year just plain sucks, and i am not kidding when i say i am forgetting how to laugh. maybe that is why i gained weight lol (fun fact i probably already told you: laughing for 15 minutes straight burns approx. 300 calories :D)

eh whatever. i'm sorry for complaining so much and everything. i am just frustrated.

tons of love,
geena

santa babyyy i want a yacht & really thats not a lot...

ATTTENTIONN!!! secret santa update/question. people are asking when to reveal identities (haha i cant put it in any other way) for the present exchange. i'm thinking in the letter/card/envelope because we already kept it a secret for 2 wks right? might as well tell it once you get the present.

Vincents/Homecoming

Yup, it was last Friday and it was very crowded but it was pretty nice, at the Hilton. Everyone in flashy dresses and guys looking awkward on the dance floor. And then there were a couple guys dancing like crazy... if you got in their way their shoes would damage your foot for life.

Those are some of my friends looking fab!! Anyways so I was at Vincents and I was thinking... how much fun it would have been if you guys were there! The music was actually decent. No American Pie at the end, I can't lie, I was waiting for that song. And Kingston and Scott you guys are love but there were not that many hotties at CTY... Vincents on the other hand... *fans herself with her hand* They were delicious. Period. Anyways, so that's not the story I was going to tell you. Wait theres two stories. First I was getting my coat from the coat check and my friends were rushing me because I was carpooling with them to an afterparty and then there's seering pain in my scalp. My hair was stuck to random dude's button. And he stupidly stands there having no idea what to do. So there I was curising at him to untangle us. So we were stuck like that for at least 10 minutes... Ow :( But funnier story was... My friends dress fell off! Her straps broke and it fell down to her hips! (No bra) So she was like frozen stiff so I had to do the honors and cover her boobs with my hands and we walked to the bathroom like that. Omg... High school boys + 2 girls with hands on bare boobs... = Lots of inappropriate comments... OMFG AND GUESS WHAT I SAW PEOPLE FROM CTY! Nikki Sood? Anyone know her? And RAE remember Becca? Yup I saw her too. We were screaming like crazy... CTY MEMORIES ARE EVERYWHERE!! TTYL <3
