Hi everyone!
How are you all? I'm really good because my hair is curly today. I like when my hair is curly. I need to curl it more often. Remember the event i've been talking about for what seems like forever? Well it was yesturday. Winter formal at my school. It was alright, yes just alright. I have a problem of making things seems like the biggest deal and getting super excited about them and then they don't live up to my expectations. I've had this problem forever, but I can't not just be excited about stuff. My nature is just always excited, nervous, or bored. Anyways enough about me and more about formal.
The them was a night in Burbon street. Burbon street is in New Orleans and its the street famous for doing the mardi gras parades, and you know home of the saints our last superbowl champians. It was pretty cool. They had nice christams clear lights and these cool old fashioned street lamps everywhere. There were a decent amount of people there. Everyone dressed up. My dress was strapless, pink on top, black on botton with a black bow on the side. The bottom of the dress bunches up and I liked it. It was formal and fit the occasion. The night before I went to do facials and makeup tips with my girl scout troup. We also did nails there, I got the most amazing color from forever 21. Its pink and sparkly amazingness. I woke up early saturday to get my hair done. It took quite the longest time. I got curls and layered my hair a bit. I also have some side bangs. It was cool. I had a lot of time to kill so I caught up on the two glee episodes I missed due to concerts (orchestra and choir). They were awesoeme AND they did a christmas episode which was extra sepcial.
After wasting time I got ready, took pictures and headed to applebees. With what was suposed to be 6 of my friends but ended up being 7. We had a good time and the food was delicious. After that we all rode together to formal and blood was pumping with excitment. It took about 1 hour for people to actually start dancing which is about out of the norm. The DJ was playing really bad songs, I'm talking old. Like sorry miss jackson from back in 2004. It continued on that way till like the last 20 minutes where she started playing some katy perry, lady gaga, and kesha. At least you could dance to those songs. Then I went without a date, by choice you can say because I didn't try to ask anyone. It just makes the slow songs all depressing and stuff. But the DJ did know a thing or two about slow jamz, of course the oldies kinds cause the guy was so old. But he played Endless Love by Diana Ross and Luther Vandross which was cool. If I had to rate the dance I would give it a 6. I had a decent time, more fun then if i'd chosen to just watch modern family or something but not a spectacular time like I had last time.
After the dance we went to a good friend of mines house because it was her birthday. She totally got sung too by the waiters at applebees which was cool. After the dance we all went over to her house and played some fun games and just chilled. Watched the proposal but I fell asleep. I was too tired. I had to leave early for church today but I had a good time. She knows how to throw a good party. Church was great today but this blog is getting too long so i'll spare you the details. After church I went to a congregation members house and checked out this awesome electric train he had. It took up the whole basment and he was super artistic about the whole thing and it was cool. A nice was to spend a sunday afternoon. well as always, thank you so much for reading!
Song of the day: Whats my name Rihanna ft. Drake, I REALLY wanted that song to be played but the dumb DJ didn't take requests :( Another song I liked which is the blog title today is firework by katy perry. But the real song of the day is the amazing HOLD MY HAND BY AKON AND MICHAEL JACKSON (his new album drops dec. 14)
oh and about music: did anyone check out TI's new album? Haven't gotten to it yet.
quote of the day: "We do not remember days, we remember moments."

I'm here in the UK, and studied here and what not.
ReplyDeleteAre formals like at the end of every year, or just final year?
Sounds like you had a good day. What rating out of 10 would you give it?
