Four, Tres, Two, Uno.

Fergalicious definition...

Okay, we won't get into that. It's my fourth week of catching up, sorry I haven't done it in a while. But I just turned my paper in last week, so I finally got rest and feel like posting again. So this week will be June 20 - June 26. Are you ready? Yeah, me too. [Editor's note: By the way, I'm trying the "Add Caption" option on some of the pictures to see if I like that better. We'll see how it goes.]

Here are three of the ten+
emergency vehicles
outside the mall.
Sunday, June 20: Wow, this was like, over a month ago. I'm ashamed. Well this was Father's Day. Happy Father's Day again Dad, I guess. Well on this day, Chris and I had made plans to go to the mall and go to the movies there to see Toy Story 3 and eat at San Marcos with this Fandango deal that we got. Well, were we in for a treat! The movie was supposed to be at like eleven something, so when we arrived at the mall, we were walking past the skating rink to get to the pod where Carmike Cinemas 8 was, and then a mall cop dude came and said everyone needed to evacuate the building. We thought it was no big deal, but after sitting in the parking lot for fifteen minutes and seeing over ten different emergency vehicles coming in, we figured we should leave. [Editor's note: We later found out that there were two incidences at the mall, coincidental or related, they didn't know yet. They found someone dead in the bathroom, and there was a freon leak from the skating rink, which is dangerous to breath. The mall was closed for several days afterwards.] We were headed home because I had a test anyway and figured I should study. Then, I realized we were on the road the zoo was on! So, we turned around and made a spontaneous trip to the zoo! It was fun- and very, very hot! We had been meaning to do this since June 6, which was a year from the time we went with Bek and Matt. We had a great time, and I bought some little dinky, cheap things in the gift store. We decided to take Dad to Mexico Tipico. Yummy. Then, my allergies or something started acting up that day. I figured it was just from being outside practically all day. Then we headed to my house and both got some studying done, fun. Here are some pictures from the zoo.

How lame is that? Geeze. It reads: Elephants will be accessed to building due to heat.

I had to make this one bigger so you can see my hair. This is what we looked like every time we walked under the amazing misty things. Great invention!

That's a pretty huge snake all wrapped up in the water bowl. I guess he was hot, too.

Pretty jaguar. I'm sad though because they used to have a black one, and I liked him a lot. This one would not pose for a picture at all like the black one would!

Since I couldn't post an elephant picture, here is a giraffe one.

And here's one of my two babies probably watching dumb awesome baseball.

I took this to remember
my hair before my
haircut, in case I didn't like
the new do.
Monday, June 21: I cleaned in the morning, according to my notes. Don't remember that, but I guess that's what I did. Then I had an ortho appointment at like one or something like that. I picked up Melanee and we left for the hour drive to the orthodontist, since it's at school, not here. I had to get impressions done again for more trays, said it'd take four to six weeks to get in the rest of my Invisalign, and I'll be done! Then we went to the ball up there. I bought the jewelry organizer from Claire's that I honestly needed and had been eyeing like the past five times I've been there, at least. I still want another one of them though for my necklaces. I guess I'll do that next time. We got some plain white Ked-like shoes to decorate just for kicks, hehe. No pun intended.  I got some stuff from Wet Seal, we did a picture booth thing, and I know I bought more than I can't remember. It was a successful day of shopping, for sure. I was still sick from my sinuses too, boo. Also, we didn't go bowling this night like usual. I'm not sure why not, but we didn't apparently.

Here's a cute picture of Jessie using my slipper as a pillow since her blanket was up on my bed. How cute is she?! I swear, I can't take enough pictures of her.

Here's me after my haircut.
Tuesday, June 22: I had class, of course. Boring as usual. I was terrified to go though. I just knew the girl that sat next to me (who was in the room during my meltdown) was going to think I was a total loser. I didn't even sit next to her. Then the jerk, being my teacher, even called on me in class! Ugh. Oh well I guess. I survived. Dad and I ate at Texas Roadhouse. I was not impressed, to say the least. I think Dad enjoyed his though, so that's good. After that, I met Mom at my haircut place that I totally drove right past even though Dad told me like three times how to get there. I was nervous, but I think it turned out great! I told her I wanted side-swept bangs though, and she gave me the choppy kind. But I can make them do what I want, so it's okay. I kind of like them the way they are. I pretty much slept the rest of the day away because I wasn't feeling well. Mom and I started to think I had a cold instead of allergies.

Wednesday, June 23: Mom, Chris, and I had lunch together at Ryan's. It was delicious, of course. I was lazy and studied pretty much the whole day. I definitely wasn't feeling better.

Here is Chris's weird fore arm worky outy thing. I couldn't do it worth a crap, even after I loosened it.

Thursday, June 24: My second test in the class. Only two class days after my first one. I knew how to study this time though, plus he basically read the test to us on Tuesday, so that's what I studied. I ignored the rest of the study guide. I felt much more confident about this one. I still kind of BS-ed some of it, but hey, who doesn't do that? Afterwards, I went to work, like usual. After being there for an hour and a half, I found out that my dad had prostate cancer. I was very upset, so I asked Mom if I could leave work early, which I did. I went home and relaxed and talked with Chris until bowling. I was sad, but I had to have my dad's faith and know that God is in control. [Everyone, whoever you are reading this, please pray for my dad. I know the miracles God can do, and I trust Him. Prayer is a powerful thing, and each and every prayer makes a difference. So please, say a prayer.] I can't find my sheet from bowling that week! I am so mad. I have no idea where it is. So I don't know what happened that night. I do know that I was upset and not feeling well, so I probably didn't do that well anyway.

Friday, June 25: I was completely lazy the entire day. The night before I hadn't gotten very much sleep due to having to blow my nose every five minutes and getting cramps in my feet throughout the night. I asked Mom if I could stay home, and I did. I started feeling better later in the afternoon. That night, Melanee, Ben, Zach, Andy, and I went Christian Extreme bowling. It was lots of fun. Also, Mel spent the night afterwards. We made a couple of videos, and talked to her boyfriend, Ben, on iChat (which I found out is WAY better than Skype). We had lots of fun.

Here we all are. This picture is awful. I have no idea what kind of smile I got going on, and since the lights were off, it's dark. This is the best I could do. But it's all I got, so I'll share.

Here's Melanee falling off of my bed from embarrassment since we let Ben watch the videos we had just made. She's so funny. [This is technically from Saturday, since it was like one A.M., a record for Mel!]


My painting, which I
don't really like anymore.
It's alright, I guess.
Saturday, June 26: I got up bright and early to get ready for a family reunion. Woo hoo. It was, of course, incredibly boring. I knew a whopping like seven people out of like a hundred or so. Luckily, the only cousins I'm close to came. I'm really glad they did! I had someone close to my eye to talk to. I also found out that I'm related to Patrick Swayze, that's pretty cool. After that, I saw Chris for a bit before he had work. Then I headed to Mel's for a little while to paint. After that, I went to church with Bek and Zach. I still wasn't feeling well, so I didn't hang afterwards. Dad and I just hung out and watched a movie. I think it was The Proposal. That is a hilarious movie; you gotta check it out! Then I finished my painting for our apartment, finally! I liked it so much though, that I planned to paint Taylor a picture for her birthday, which is June 28. I ended up finishing hers in three hours, finishing a little after midnight. I made her card match it, too, so that's why I included a picture of them both.

Here's Tay's. I just love hers! T's are cuter than C's.

There you have it! Hope you enjoyed. There were lots of pictures this time, so that was nice. I've been trying to take them a lot on my phone. I lost my camera charger. I think it's somewhere in storage. I guess we'll find out August 15th, when I get to move in!

-peace.
