30.7

SOOO the Oscars. First of all, thanks to all of you who voted on the earrings and dresses. Even though I like it less, I might have chosen the dress with straps. Because then it wouldn't have fallen down when I was dancing.... But the shirt saved me. And for most of the dance, I was wearing an apron and oven mitts anyways (it was hott, everyone loved it). I think after I took off the apron and oven mitts, my dance moves weren't the same. But because Jeremy and I were on the food committee thing, we got PRIZES.

There were left-over prizes because only four movies were actually submitted. Ours didn't get finished because Zak decided to run off to Calgary, the skank. But it was still good fun. But yeah, the "Oscars" were really just cans of Pringles with gold spray paint. I gave mine to Daniel because he was on the food committee, but decided to take pictures instead of accept an award. But before he went home, he took one of the left-over ones anyways, so I got mine back (salt and vinegar) and then they gave me an extra one (regular). So I have two cans of Pringles. And I was going to take the cookies home but I decided to leave them in Jeremy's car and SAVE MYSELF. I did, however, take home the leftover salad dressing. Gonna have fun tonight!

So yeah. Along with out Pringles, we also got BEADS. I was so excited. Let me give you a bit of back story first. (Not lots, I promise). Jeremy was wearing a purple tie. And I was wearing a red top under my dress. Back story done.

So they gave ME purple beads and they gave Jeremy RED beads. So we accepted out awards, then went back to the kitchen. Then we kind of looked at each other, looked at each other's beads, looked at each other again. We started taking our beads off and he was like "wanna trade?" so we did.

For most of the night, I was in the kitchen. I didn't watch any of the movies but Jeremy said they were really last-minute. Except the last one, but the last one was like 20 minutes long. No thanks. It sounded really awesome (I could hear the laughter) but I was like, I'm putting the OARDERVES in the oven.

(I know it's hors d'oeuvres but I like things to be spelled phonetically. So OARDERVES).

Anyways. It was a fun night. I ate SO MUCH HONEYDEW. Love it. We only bought one but it was HUGE and delicious and Jeremy and I ate a lot of it before people even arrived. Heh... But it was good. We had fun just cutting away until Daniel came (late) with... a girl whose name I keep forgetting. I want to say Danielle but it just seems weird that Daniel and Danielle would be arriving together. BUT she was reading the same book as me! It's called Marked and it's a vampire book. Spencer sent me a copy over msn, and I thought it was weird that she was reading it too.

So after a certain point, Fiona kicked me and Jeremy out of the kitchen and told us to go dance, so dance we did. And it was fun. The VERRRY first song played was Backstreet Boys and while Jeremy was all "I LOVE THIS SONG" (Bonus points, Jeremy. Bonus points) I was all "Aw, this makes me miss Alex and Shoshana." But yeah, the music was not that great. And it seemed to end way too soon. Phil was like "this is the last dance of the evening" and I was all OMG RLY?

So then the guy that likes me (who will not be named on the blog. I doubt he'll ever find out about the blog, but I'd like for his pride to remain intact. I care enough about him as a friend to give him his privacy.) came up and grabbed me and started dancing with me. Then he was like "I guess I should have asked, but I think you're fine with it because you're dancing". I was kind of waiting for him to ask me to dance anyways because I knew he was going to. He did at the last dance. And this time, he came over to me like every single slow song, but then changed his mind at the last second and asked one of my friends. Anyways. It was a good night. I GOT BEADS. But my feet hurt because I wore my prom shoes. And I barely took them off (SURVIVOR).

PS back to you helping me choose the earrings. My favorites were 2-4, and Alex liked 2 best, then 4 second most. I showed all four to my mom and she liked number 2. So I went with number 2 and got tons of compliments on them. So thank you to all of you for helping me choose. I feel like I should do that every time I have a clothing crisis. SO TELL ME WHAT TO PACK FOR ABBOTSFORD? Kidding. I'm going to stop before this gets way too long. Because all I talked about was the Oscars. I didn't tell you about any other part of my day. ALSO, when I got back home, my hair was PERFECT still. Which means I either executed the hairspray perfectly or I wasn't dancing hard enough. I think the hairspray. RIGHT. STOPPING. BAI.

The song is going to be... Um. Waves and the Both of Us by Charlotte Sometimes. This is maybe not the greatest Sunday song but I pressed "next" on shuffle fifteen times, and it came up. So we're sticking with it. Remember next week is going to be THEMED. I am very excited. Also excited for the phone call with Alex and Shoshana tonight. Provided they actually make it. Sometimes I'm not so sure.

Love you all,
xx

Now it's 1am and I am beat. But I think I'll watch a couple more Boy Meets World episodes before bed. I had trouble stopping earlier, so I only left myself twenty minutes to get ready. Still did it. I'm amazing.

Also, my stomach kind of hurts. I'm not sure if it's from dancing (so a good pain) or from eating too much fruit, or some other reason. Anyways. Leaving now. Love you.
