God, catching up with what I missed last week has been hard! Yeah, but I didn't miss much so I'm good now. We switched classes for the new term and I have a lot of new people I just recently met. I think I might like this term. The bad thing is that I don't have Lui in any classes of in my lunch. I'll get over that one, whoops I already did! Yeah, I'm done with that.
Chicago. Chicago was great! I got to so many people again and had the best time. As soon as I got there, my dad was waiting at the airport with a big hug. God I missed him! It's been so long and he actually is seeming to have cleaned himself up a lot. We drove home and just talked but I was mostly just observing the environment. Its getting colder up there but this weekend was beautiful. I made him drive by my old junior high just cuz I wanted to see how it looked.
(This is gonna be a boring entry)
We went back to the apartment (yes, I lived in an apartment. No big deal) It's so clean and...empty now. All the stuff I always used and was used to being there either was moved to Cali with me or put in storage. My dad has no use for it. I went to put all my stuff in my room and all that remains in there is a bed and two dressers. I didn't mind really because how much time was I gonna be spending in my room this week? All that sunday night me and dad just talked until I was tired. Talked about how I was doing in california mostly. I told him about all my new friends there and he said I sounded happy. I said "yea I am" not thinking and immediatly regreted that. I saw that look of hurt in his eyes hearing me say that, almost like I didn't NEED him or this town anymore. I do.
Monday dad works so I stayed around the apartment while everyone was in school and just was going through stuff. Pictures mostly. Does anyone else love loking through pictures as much as I do? Seeing those happy faces from happy times just almost makes me feel that way again. When I knew school would be out, I called Lauren and we decidedto go to the mall. Her mom picked me up and we left. I thought the two of us would just be there, getting to catch up in person and me get to be back in a place that used to be so familiar to me. NO! Everyone was there! Oh, I made that look wrong, this made me happy! I don't think I have ever gotten this many hugs in such a short time in my life. Everyone is so different now but they are all still the greatest. It was great but a whole bunch of my closer old friends weren't there.
Tuesday was more of the saem during the morning, in the afternoon Lauren, Kendall, Val, and Bianka came over and we just did all the studip crap that we used to. I have so much fun with them doing the simplest things. I went out for the night with my dad and had tons of fun. We ended up at some restaurant watching game 9 of the playoffs. My cubbies lost! That sucky team, they let us down. But thats ok, I just felt bad for that guy who bumped the ball away at that one game. A lot of people blamed shit on him.
I went down to the fairgrounds to the haunted house. I thought it was a lot better last year but it's still fun. Always. I love everything that has anything to do with halloween and scary things. Yeah, it's on a friday this year!.
Thursday night I finally got to see Angel! I was gonna go crazy if I went the whole wek and didn't even get to see him. Man he's the prettiest boy you'll ever see. We were all over at Kendall's and the two of us were just goofing off all night. That's the best.
Fridday, FOOTBALL GAME! Yeah baby! Here is where I got to actually see everyone. I met a lot of new people too. I may never see them again but it was fun. Maureen ran up and gave me the biggest hug when she saw me. Yeah, that's it, I just love being jumped on at football games. I slept over at Lauren's and stayed up all night and had the greatest time. We woke up late, took showers, and went to great america for the afternoon/night (fright fest!). Yeah, I-I wasn't scared at all. not even when those clowns and demons and everything else was coming after me. Ha it was fun, I was acting all paranoid and freaking people out. Nothing is more fun than that, freaking people out.
Me and a couple others walked to DQ in the night and I was treated to ice cream. Special! It was fun, I haven't done that in the longest time.
And sunday was sad. Before I left a whole bunch of people stopped by just to say bue because I don't know when the next time I'll get to see them again, hopefully winter break.
When I got back here the firstthing I did was call Marlie because she made me promise to call as soon as I got back. She did all her happy shit and I'm glad to be back. I miss chi though but thats obvious.
