Lullabies, look in your eyes, run around the same old town.

Well, it's been a really long time since I've blogged. So much has happened. I got back from New York a week ago, but it seems like it's been months. The Sunday I got back, Kara and Melanie were planning to take me out to dinner but my parents said "no" and it was this whole big thing. It was disappointing because I had missed those girls all week, but I still got to spend Monday after school with them. That was fun. We went to Kroger to grocery shop. It was definitely more exciting then it sounds.
Tuesday was the worst day ever. I got grounded for an e-mail my Chemistry teacher sent to my parents. I guess I got a 42 on the last test. The class average on the test was a 50 though, so I used that as a bargaining chip to go out this weekend. I'm so so glad my parents let me, because yesterday was really fun. I spent the night at Melanie's on Friday because my mom had her entire Girl Scout troop spend the night. There was no way I was staying there with a ton of little 12 year olds screaming through my house.
Anyway, I went to Melanie's and we made spaghetti. It was undercooked but it's all good. We also watched The Clique, which is a terrible movie about a bunch of spoiled 7th graders. I liked it. When we woke up in the morning, my mom wanted me to come home, shower, and "check in" before I went out for the day. It was kinda pointless, but it only took an hour or so before I was out of the house again. From there, Melanie and I picked up Kara and we went to Main Street. My mom wanted me to stop by there because I guess this artist lady was going portraits for $50 at some studio. We waited around there for about an hour for her to get it done. That was the lamest part of the day.
After that we made our way to Bluffton to pick up our friend Aaron. He wanted to try these wings he heard about at this restaurant out in Beaufort. Apparently there so hot, you have to sign a waver just to get them. It took almost an hour to get there and we didn't even get the hot wings. We got to the place, and it took forever to get served, and it seems like they kept giving us excuses on why we couldn't get them. So we didn't. We just got french fries and this lemon thing and left for the island again.
After we dropped off Aaron, we went to Mr. Garrett Burke's house to pick him up. Oh, he is too much fun. We picked up his adorable girlfriend Anna too, and we went to Giuseppe's for dinner. We ate pizza and stuff, but didn't really know what to do afterwards. We decided on going to T-J Max and trying on ridiculous outfits. That was a ton of fun. Kara and Garrett didn't join us though because they're party poopers.
After that, we went to Melanie's house. There, we played hide and seek and Wii, and I got to cuddle with Kara on Melanie's couch. Gage came over after a while, which was cool. I had to leave at 10:30, and by then everyone else had gone home too. When Melanie got back from driving Kara home, she came over and spent the night. We watched Lords of Dogtown and Degrassi, and ate Scooby Doo Mac n'Cheese.
It was a fun time and I'm so glad my parents let me out of the house. Oh, and I got my braces off on Wednesday :) I'm so happy. I'm just happy in general. I don't want to get grounded ever again. I seriously need to buckle down with my schoolwork.

For now though, I just love my friends. I think this next week should be really good.
Knock on wood.
Christmas is in 18 days, but Kara is leaving before that. I'm gonna miss her, but after she get's back,
neither of us should be going anywhere for a while. I hate missing her when one of us leaves for vacation. We'll always be here for each other though, I know that.
I want an I-pod and a trampoline for Christmas.

And my family's having a party on Christmas Eve. Anyone's invited. I'm sure it will be like last year, but I just hope Melanie's dad doesn't have sex on my bathroom counter again.

I'm gonna go eat :) <3
