My Day

I have never really told anyone how I felt about my day, and I had a very eventful day today, so you are in luck :).

I woke up today at 6:00 am and left the house by 6:30 am in order to volunteer for Habitat for Humanity, and no, I did not do a build today, I just volunteered a sort of church bazaar.

The first couple of hours tested my physical strength, which I have none, but nonetheless, once the event started to happen, I was moved a bunch of times. First, my friend and I had to put up balloons onto tents, and I had to hold the balloons, which was the scarious job because I thought I might go up with a boys scout kid and an old man (comment reference, ;)) or I might lose them all. I had to hold them for my much taller friend to put them up (I am short). Next, I was moved to the registration area and had to give out fake hard hats to children and separate them and got a cut, which I could not get a bandage for, but I was fine. Finally, I was moved for the third time (and this only happened to me) to the bean bag toss which most of my friends were there and we had a great time just having fun and fooling around when no one else was there. It is good to be young sometimes.

By noon, and yes this all happened in the course of 5 hours, I had to go home because my shift was over. I loved this volunteering experience because it was fun and enjoyable. I did not have to deal with bratty kids if I did not want to, and my job was changing throughout the day, so I had fun.

I had some time to kill, so I went with my mom and my sister to go get some Arnold Palmer and chicken tenders from our favorite place. If you never tried Raising Canes or an Arnold Palmer or even together, please do because I do not want you to miss out. And if you did try it, please tell me your thoughts on it.

Next, after an eventful meal that consisted of a conversation about Rosie, the Beatles and why Paul McCartney is barefoot and not John Lennon on their album (comment reference ;)), and pointilism art, I had to get a haircut in order to get my layers redone. My layers have grown out, so my friend Ivy decided to recut them for me and they look amazing. Thanks Ivy.

All in all, that was my day, now I have to do some World History homework, which I procrastinated on, do not judge me because we all do it.

With love,

P.S. What is your way of finding something that you lost?
