The Last Week

Before I went to college, I had one week to hang out with as many friends as possible! I was very upset that I missed the TCNJ and Lehigh kids :( But here's a quick story of my adventures with everyone else.

On Tuesday, the twenty-fifth, I picked up Jesson and we visited Band Camp. I brought everyone popsicles and they were all very happy :] Except my sister, who acted like a little brat to me once again, because nothing is ever good enough. It was really great to catch up with everyone, since a lot of the band kids [that didn't graduate with me] are kids I don't get to see as often outside of school.




I had a dance lesson and had to leave band camp for that. It was a good lesson, as I recall.

That afternoon, I rode my bike, and Jesson ran around after me. Then he went home to pack for his trip to Maryland.

That night, Ying and Will came over, and we went to Pane Vino for dinner. We made Ying eat a lot of food, lol. Well, she ordered a calimari appetizer, but Will and I never planned on sharing it, so she had to eat both that and a meal all by herself. After that, we got ice cream at Calaco's and we jumped napped on my trampoline. HINT! Will is very ticklish. Just letting you know. After that, it was goodbye to two of my very good friends :'(



Wednesday, the twenty-sixth, was Sharon day ♥ . We watched The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert because all our other options were too depressing. [Hmm, the Holocaust movie or the story of a kid from a ghetto?] She even came to watch my dance lesson, but had to leave halfway through. I think she survived the drive home, though I'm not sure, since I haven't heard from her since ;D

On Thursday, I went to Verona Park with Maria! We had a lot of fun having a picnic of bagels and cookies. We even saw Sara there! we traipsed around through the stream, which something tells me we're not supposed to do, and got really close to some ducks and minnows. Lol.




That evening, I went to see Jersey Boys on Broadway with the Marching Band! It was SO AMAZING. I would highly recommend it O: As in, go see it. Now.



Friday was my last day here. I had my last dance lesson *cry* and I gave Victor my college address and a Pikachu doll. After that, I got my last bubble tea from Kam Man. I still haven't been into New London and haven't found out if there's a place that sells it here. But I could make it... Then, I had to call my grandparents, and they generally wished me luck, and my uncle came over and gave me some money [hehe] when Mum wasn't looking.

THEN IT WAS TIME TO GO! After a long drive, we got into NYC and I got to see SWITCHFOOT IN CONCERT. Everyone should know how much I love them ♥ ♥ ♥ . During "This Is Your Life," I almost started crying. I love seeing them live. They also played my favourite song, "Gone," mixed with "Crazy in Love" and "Umbrella," but I accidentally deleted the video!!!!! AAAAUGH! That, too, almost made me cry ;___;

I was fortunate enough to see the aftershow. Jon played a lot of songs from the new album, Hello Hurricaine. ♥



We left the city at 12 and got in around 1am, at which point we went to Viggi's house and kidnapped the poor guy. I made him sign my yearbook, lol. When 2:30 - the curfew his parents gave him that night - rolled around, we left for his house, but instead of saying goodbye, we chatted for about half an hour just sitting in the car in his driveway lol. I was very sad because this was the last goodbye, and he's such a good friend. Of course, it's more of a see you later, but things are never going to be the same.
