I left at about 8:40 pm when we were suppose to be there by 8:45 pm, lets just say I sped a little bit lol. Got there and located Lorraine and Kendra, they were in the gym messing around on these two big blow ups. You would race another person and each would have a course to run that was the same. There was another blow up that you could jump around in and climb up then slide down. We left there and went and got a drink in the cafeteria. It was really neat because they decorated it with a tropical theme and had berry smoothies and chips. There was a race going on to where we could win $100 as a group but we just ended up walking around. At 10 or so a Hypnotist arrived and so we went and got second row seats. It was really creepy when he had Lisa pick out of a book he had a long word. She first chose graveyard but then she changed it to a different long word. He had about five people choose words and he tried to guess. He was picking up on what they were thinking, it was crazy! He guessed correctly on all of their words it was so cool. Next he had us do some things which was kind of like meh because it's stuff that I've done before. The whole hold your index fingers out and they go together slowly like they were being tied together. Next he had some people go up on stage which ended up being: Jordan Petterman, Blake Friend, Michael McDonald, Morgan Anthony, James Ball, Katlin Hammond, Joey, and Kim Mosher. Morgan was obviously faking it in the fact that she would keep smiling and laughing almost when he was going through the whole thing. He told everyone up there that when he said a certain color that they would do something. Such as when he said/showed the color blue the person next to them stunk really bad, everything smelled bad. The color purple would be that they stunk really bad and the color red would be that everything smelled nice again. It was hilarious to watch Jordan, Blake, Katlin, and Kim because their facial expressions were just priceless. After that was done he had it be that whenever he said his own name that the guys would stand up and flex and show off, that they were the most muscular men in the world. Jordan ended up taking his shirt off which everyone was just in a up roar of laughter. He assigned the females to whenever he said bellybutton that they thought their bellybuttons were missing and they didn't want anyone to notice. When he said bellybutton Kim and Katlin were hilarious because they both put their arms over their stomach and were looking a round and kinda scared because they thought they were missing them. Then he had a guy come up on stage and said that he stole their bellybuttons. They both death glared him but then he 'gave' them back their bellybuttons and he told him that he was actually their hero and they hugged him then sat down. After that he made them believe that they were 5 yrs old and then asked a few them their nickname and what their favorite food was. Everyone of them had squeaky voices, oh it was so funny to watch!~

After that we went and got some more drinks and had dinner. Our group ended up getting nachos because the line for other food was really long. There was some sort of flip book thing going on so we went and checked that out. Was cool because you dress up and they record a short film and then make it into a book! Lorraine and I ended up doing it and it was so retarded looking but hopefully years to come I can look back and laugh at ourselves. They had some sort of boxer bingo going on and so I wanted to do that but the rest of them didn't so we went walking around more. Lorraine wanted Kendra to do the flip book so we went back but I didn't feel like standing around because by then word got around and so I went and played bingo. Was lame because there was a pair of Guitar Hero boxers that I really wanted but someone got to them before me. After that we walked around a little bit more but then it was time to announce who won the Grand prizes. We went into the cafeteria and waited. They had two tattoo booths, one was spray on and the other one was drawn on with some kind of pasty looking stuff. Was funny because Mere asked if we were allowed to have a tattoo for work. I'm like yeah because its temporary lol, not permanent! Also they had this machine that you get in and it has fake money in it but also real money. I guess the most you could get was $50, but it was hard because it flew around and you had to grab for it. John Fischer won $44 I heard which was the most that anyone had gotten. I would of done it but I felt like a retard so I didn't haha. Lorraine did it and she got $13 which pretty much paid for the party since we had to pay $10 to go. With the food, snacks, drinks, prizes and everything, I think I got my moneys worth.

Earlier I had won a door prize of a beach towel and some sandals. I didn't end up winning any of the big prizes but it was still fun going to the party. They had four plasmas, Digital camera, Mini refrigerator, three microwaves, Printer, Nintendo Wii, Airplane ride, Guy and Girl beauty kit, Rock Band II, and a few other items. I said goodbye to our little group and left for the night. I got home around 3 am and Ryan still isn't home, hmm...

Graduation!

~Congratulations Class of 2009!!!!!!!!~

Today I graduated =D. Had to go at 3 pm to the school so they could check us over and pick out the retards that don't know how to dress for the occasion. They said we had to be there at 3 pm and we were running late. I put hot rollers in and so we had to hurry and pull those out and spray my hair which wouldn't hold very well. I got a golden thing to wear that said honor on it and then I got purple cords for the National Technical Society for getting good grades in computer class I suppose. Once I did get there I realized that I forgot my medallion, I was pissed but there was nothing I could do because I didn't have a phone to call anyone. Waited around until it was time to start which was at 4 pm. We all filed out in our rows and went to stand in the hallway going down to the cafeteria. The closer I got to the doors we were going to enter I started getting more nervous. I got to the door and when it was my time to go I had to remember to walk slowly because all I could think was to hurry and get to my seat. I spotted my family trying to take my picture but then I had to go sit down. I kept looking past Alesha so they could possibly get some good pictures. I looked so corny with my cap on it wasn't even funny. After the speeches, choir singing, and band playing their song, it was time for us to go get our diploma. Once our row heard Jordan Petterman's name called then we were all suppose to stand up. We then waited until a dot was available to stand on and then keep moving up the side until we got to the front. Ugh I was so nervous. Finally I heard my name called and I walked up the stairs to Mr. Everheart and shook his hand. I felt kind of in a trance because I was just focused on shaking hands and getting to the end to accept my flower. Mom wanted a picture of me and so I stopped and smiled. She couldn't really get a picture so I had to move on because Alesha was behind me. Went and waited for all of our row to get back and sat down. We were announced as graduated and switched our tassels over to the right. Some people threw their hats but I didn't because I didn't want to lose it. After the farewell speech given by Darcy Watson we all stood up and proceeded to exit through the other door opposite the one we came in. Was set up this way so that if people's parents sat on the other side than when they came in that they could get pictures of them leaving and vice versa. As I was leaving Mom was trying to get my picture again but she didn't really know how to work my camera as well. I had to give up my golden thing in exchange for golden chords. She followed me out and took a picture of me alone by a wall and then we waited for the rest of the family. We couldn't find Dad and Ryan until about 20 mins later. Took some pictures with Lorraine, Kendra, Britt, Briana, Heather, and Stephanie. I tried to find Meredith but she wasn't anywhere to be found. Took some more pictures with family and then went home. I decided to go to the Senior All-Night party because I had heard that there were some really good Grand Prizes like Guitar Hero, digital camera, plasma screen TV, and more. We had a few hours before I needed to leave so Mom asked what I wanted to do about dinner. I didn't want to eat pizza like they suggested so we ended up driving up to Mt. Pleasant and to Bob Evans. Grandma embarrassed me because I just wondered if I got a free dessert because I graduated. So she asked the waitress and she said I did! I ended up getting some really good stir fry and a piece of Oreo ice cream pie. Went home and got ready to leave for all-night party. Dad was outside playing basketball with the kids which was kinda funny. Ryan ended up leaving with Dad to go to the casino after awhile. I left a little bit after then for the all-night party.

Well dang, hasn't it been forever since I've updated this.. I seem to say that every time but oh well. Valentine's Day is just around the corner and I just sent Dad pictures from the last few trips we went on (Mackinaw, Ludington, Indiana, and some of my car). I felt kind of bad because I talked to him like last week and he wanted to know where the pictures of my car were! It's been like 6 months since I first got my car? Oops. Anyhow.. not much has happened that is interesting since New Years. With the mix of boredom in all that nothingness I've been feeling kind of crappy lately. I feel as though I have all this art stuff yet I haven't used any of it really. With my tablet I haven't drawn anything that is of use and I don't know how to color stuff with it. And with my colored pencils I don't know what to draw so that doesn't help at all. I tried drawing a horse today and I felt pretty good about it until I looked at the completed horse on the next page of the book I was following. Ended up erasing all of it which probably wasn't the right thing to do but ugh I'm just so frustrated. On top of it Jack wouldn't shut up so finally I grabbed him out of his cage and took him downstairs to squawk. Mom wanted to know what was wrong and it's pretty much everything! Practice makes perfect I know but I'm just really frustrated, I hope I don't sound like a whinny emo kid or something. Oh and what I've been doing before today (trying to draw since semester ended) was playing Diablo II and Guild Wars. Why the sudden change? Well I was kind of motivated to draw by who knows what but I really wanted to draw and basically no one plays those games anymore so I'm all by myself. Here we go with the emo-ness again... but I'm serious.. have you ever played a game for a month or more and have no one really to do anything with on it? Tell me you don't get bored. I'm looking very forward to graduation, I hope that going to college and picking my own classes/more variety classes that I can expand my art abilities and I don't put myself down as much.

And as a side note, the weather is warming up which is a pleasent feeling. Although on Sunday the lovely iceicles on the house got all toasty and decided to fall off the ledge, slide down the roof and then onto my car. Now there's a dent about the size of my palm and a smaller one next to it near my right tailight, joy! It seems that Maple just loves getting damaged. Also Manda got the lead role in a play called, "Once upon a Mattress" aka The Princess and the Pea. But yeah, Mom said that we might be able to go and see her perform, which will be nice!

Wooot today was Election Day =D!!! I went to school dressed in red white and blue, it was cool. We had mock elections also at school to where everyone could vote. Turns out that Barack Obama won for president at school and Nancy Gallagher (Meredith's Mom) won for district judge! I went to work and decided to park further out that way people that came to vote wouldn't park next to me and ding my car up. It was hilarious, Kyle lost a bet with one of our patrons, who is a State fan, that Michigan would beat State. So as a result Kyle had to wear a Michigan State shirt all day while he worked. Every time someone that liked state that knew Kyle hated state they would tease him about it and he would turn bright red!! Later Brian came out and asked if I knew what was going on down by the river because there was a policeman walking around down there and there was kind of a group of bystanders watching from the sidewalk. I said I had no clue and just kept working. Well around 6:20p.m. I was working on typing up slips for Brian when a cop came in. I first thought that he just wanted to ask questions and see if we seen anything or whatever. He asked me if I knew so and so, which was my Mom!!! First thought that came to my mind was, what happened to her?! or is it Ryan?!..so I was like yeah that's my Mom. He was like,"OK, so you drive the car?" I'm like yeah its mine. He's like,"Well unfortunately someone backed up into it". I was like...oh..my..gosh! Of course I ask is it bad and he says yeah its bad. Images fly through my head of it being a total wreck and you know being un-drivable which made me all upset and I think I made him feel bad because he obviously picked the wrong answer, lol. Lorrie came out and was listening to what was going on and when I got all upset she was like it'll be OK Meggie!! aww Lorrie ^^! I went and got my license so he could look at it and went outside to go see the damage. As we were walking out to my car I calmed down a little and he goes,"hmm I know your brother, Ryan (from seeing my last name). I've had a few encounters with him". I'm like," Oh gosh yeah, haha. I'm nothing like him!" That made us both laugh. Went out there expecting something way worse that it really was. All that was damaged was there was a dent in my bumper that is really deep and about 3 inches in diameter, eep. Then my trunk lid has a big dent all the way across it and scraps all on my fender with chipped paint and dents. He had just missed my tail lights thank goodness. I'm going to take some pictures of it so I might post them lol. He asked what insurance company I have and I said Progressive I think but wasn't sure. Had to go back in and get my keys so I could open my car (would of been logical to do that in the first place but meh). He checked it all out and said that I'm good and that I can pick up a police report tomorrow. Said thanks (hope I did at least!) and went back inside where I debated on calling Mom. I didn't want to get upset again so I decided not to. The rest of the night was pretty quiet from then on and went by relatively fast. Drove my poor wounded baby home and parked her in the driveway. Went in and walked in their bedroom where I go,"So did they call you yet?" they're like uh...who? "the cops" no? "well...someone backed up into my car and damaged my bumper/trunk..." I got all upset again and it sucked! I mean it could of been way worse, but being this is my most expensive thing I own (bank owns it really but you know what I mean), having it damaged when I've only had it not even 4 months. I told them the story and everything and then Mom wanted to come out and see it. She looked it over and said it'll probably all have to be replaced. The police know who hit my car because from what the cop told me the guy felt really bad and called in. I guess what happened was that he was using his company's vehicle and it had a trailer on it, he was backing up and just saw the empty spots on either side of me and just backed right up hitting me! Hopefully the guys company will pay for it or his insurance. My poor car!!!! =[...

As for who won the presidency, Barack Obama and for who won the district judge, Stewart MacDonald. Not so big on Barack but we'll see what he has to offer. I'm glad that Stewart got it but also I feel really bad because that was Meredith's Mom and her whole family worked hard to campaign and everything.

For the longest time it has been hard not having anyone to hang out with. I use to hang out with Britt but we haven't really done anything together pretty much from the beginning of this year. This weekend my family went camping and I didn't really want to go but then again I'm tired of not having anything fun to do on the weekends. So, I stayed home anyways and brainstormed things I could do now that I have a car. I'm kind of reluctant on that though because of the price of gas and if at all possible I could reduce the use of my gas it would be nice. It doesn't mean I'm not willing to do things, just to drive around by myself I see as kind of a waste of gas. Luckily though Mike got on and we started talking, I was bored and really wanted to do something. He said that he wanted to walk to Ryan's work and so I asked if I could go too! He drove over so we walked to Ryan's work and chit-chatted for awhile before Ryan had to start closing. It was nice to have someone to talk to. Mike's my friend and I'm just glad that we did something together tonight to kind of split up the night. Originally I had thought to go to the home game at the High School but do you know how fun it is to go by yourself. Sure I could hang out with Britt and them but I just feel like I don't know Britt all that well anymore so I'm kind of left out. Heather is cool though to hang out with but then again she's with Britt, so that was out of the options. In the end it worked out perfect and also made my day better =D.

Amanda is coming soon and I'm extatic for her to come. Another reason for my social suckage because I don't hardly hang out, depressing. It's okay though, I hope that she wants to go to school with me on Friday because they're coming Thursday, day before Halloween!!! YAY! haha Hopefully I can get that time off.
