Well… I know I haven’t been about much lately, esp at the BBS. I’ve got a couple of things to go over here, I’ll just do it day-by-day.
Friday-
Went to the movies w/bunch of people. Wasn’t sure what we were going to see, I was just along for the ride. Half to see The Rookie, while my cousin and I went to see the Scorpion King. Fun. Neat fights. At the beginning, when that guy got the throwing star thrown at his head, me and my cousin just busted up laughing… and no one else in the theater was laughing. My allergies kicked in halfway through the movie, so I ended up watching most of the movie through puffy eyes. Our movie got out, like, 30 minutes before The Rookie did, too… so we hung around, but there were a lot of people so the arcade was too full and all the benches were taken. So I just sat on the floor and got a headache from my allergies. Blegh! Then we went and ate at McDonald’s, then my aunt got some eye drops for my eyes. Rode home with Cath who told one of her classic Cath stories. Got home with a headache and went straight to bed.
Saturday-
Woke up with crusty eye thanks to allergies the night before. nice image, eh? took box to ashley. talked about dragoncon. went and got lunch. did some work on sundowner. went and picked up ashley and went to na’s house. Then, me, na, kristie, ash and david all rode in one car down to tunica to eat dinner at the fancy restaurant my grandparents like so much. Ash was the only person who was dressed for the occassion. Everybody else was in jeans… yeah, well, it’s a casino, you get all types. We got there and kristie went to look for mema on the gambling floor, while na went to the bathroom. me, ash and david all went on upstairs to the restaurant. well, this security guard followed us. We sit down there next to the restaurant and he comes strolling up, “see your IDs?” David was like, “uh… I don’t have one.” Ash goes, “I can tell you now I’m 17.” I whipped my license out and gave it to him, all proud you know, like “LOOK I’M OLD ENOUGH TO BE HERE.” I don’t think he even looked at mine… David said, “We’re just waiting on our grandparents so we can go eat.” He just handed my license right back and said, “You guys stay right here, then.” Oh, yeah, I can tell you man, we’re all just dying to go down and get some free beer and gamble what little money we have! So then we ate… it was good as usual. The waitress came around with the desert cart and the first one she picks up, it’s a Pineapple Bunt Cake. I swear to god she said “Pineapple Butt Cake.” David, Ash and I just burst out laughing. I nearly got coke up my nose. The waitress never blinked an eye. Then on the way back… er, I can’t remember what happened on the way back, but I know we all laughed a lot. Ash came back with me and spent the night at my house.
Sunday –
Got up. Showed Ash Sims Vacation. Took her home. Went to eat lunch w/grandparents, I filled up on cheese dip and didn’t actually have a meal… but I did get dessert. then mema went out to the car and brought me……… SIR BEDEVERE! yaaaaaay!!! Now all I’m missing is Lancelot. Unfortunately one of the duck’s feet broke!!! 🙁 I dropped it on the rollmat in the computer room, but that only shouldn’t have been enough to break it… yet somehow it did. dad said he’ll superglue it back on. so anyway. After that, today was SOOO nice. Mom and I worked on my costumes some, and I drew some more sundowner stuff. We listened to the LoTR soundtrack while we worked… it was gorgeous out so we had all the windows open, and it was clouded over so no harsh sunlight. It was really really nice. And we got Xiaoyu mostly done, in one day! Yay!
School… argh!! They’re not offering ANY of the higher level illustration classes next semester for some reason! Which means the next class I was supposed to take isn’t even an option. So I’m going to have to take BS classes AGAIN next semester, classes that I don’t need and otherwise wouldn’t take, classes that I have to pay major money for, so that I can wait another semester and hope that they offer my illustration class the semester after THAT.
>ugh. I’m gonna go to sleep. I’ve got to get up and do my rough illustration for class tomorrow afternoon, and then once class is over go up to RAT and take pictures to do their poster. busy busy
anyhow.
