yesssssssssss!!!!!!

Everything is finally working out for me! Life is wonderful! GAH! This is the best thing ever!

woot!

Today was fabulous! At first I felt really sick and crappy but now I'm doing much better. I got a haircut today, and I love it! I have bangs again!

After my haircut, I went with Arlette to the Hal Marcus art studio to see a performance by the Shimmy Sisters, it was great. After the show, we went around to see the different vendors and saw our belly dance instructor. I also bought a pair of earrings and a tape measurer bracelet, they're both so cute! All the people there were awesome too. A portrait painter there introduced himself to me and told me I had an amazing face, but I didn't get to exchange numbers because it was during the performance and people were passing by like crazy. Then Arlette and I got our pictures taken for the newspaper. And oh my god, I LOVE Laileinia's husband! He's in the band that does the Shimmy Sisters' music and not only is he adorable, he's also freakin' hilarious and awesome! When I was buying my earrings from him I asked how much they were and he's like, "How much do you wanna pay?" So I'm like, "Uhh... five dollars?!" "Sure! They're yours!" It was great and he was just talking to us telling us we all get a

 discount because we belly dance. The whole lot of people there was just so cool, it was like artist heaven! I loved it.

my earrings!

Oh, and today I found the video of my father dancing with the Shimmy Sisters on youtube, it's hilarious, enjoy! My dad is the first guy they bring on stage, the one who looks like a dork haha. My belly dance instructor is also featured in the video as well as all of the girls who participated in the Arabian Nights show at UTEP. Yay, Karisha!

wow.

So, I haven't updated in almost a month! A lot has happened, too. This week is finals week, and I'm so happy I'm exempt from everything! That means I just have to come in for forty-five minutes every morning this week and then I can leave! I consider winter to break to have already started for me.

Today was such a good day! It just got better and better as the day progressed. First, in World Geography we had a "party" which basically consisted of us watching some dumb christmas theme movie whilst eating crappy food that people brought. But, I can't complain too much, since we didn't have to do anything all period. Then, in P.E. we did nothing. I got to listen to my ipod all period, which wasn't too exciting. So, I wrote Arlette a letter on an index card. Haha.

Finally, I got to Biology, where I watched Enchanted for the first time. Yes, I know, I'm way behind. But, none the less, I LOVED it. It was completely adorable and dorky. I love movies like that, my inner dork needs to shine through!

Then, Geometry. It was like, the moment of truth in that class because Mrs. Galvez got her class schedule for next semester. I was so happy when I saw that ALL of my friends are still going to be in the same class next year! The rest of the day I just spent talking with Alan and Arlette, which I always enjoy. Then I went over to Arlette's to hang out and eat dinner. I love her mom's food. Oh my god. But, it was cool, because I didn't think her mom really liked me, but then today Arlette was joking around saying something about me never being to their before and her mom was like "Oh, whatever! She's a part of this house!" It made me feel so good! 

Well, that's about it. I'll update again this weekend, because somehow I think the most exciting thing I'll be doing this week is sleeping. Woooo!

au revoir
