Today our high school experienced our second off sight evacuation within the time frame of two weeks. Both were for the same reason; a bomb threat. (both have also taken place on a Thursday.)
Personally, I hardly ever take them seriously but this time apparently someone called the school saying there was a bomb, and for some reason that made me slightly nervous.
So, as always we walked over to the middle school, except this time I totally wasn’t prepared considering I was wearing a dress and didn’t have my winter coat, it kind of sucked a lot.
They packed our entire student body into the middle school gym where we then sat and waited.
1:45 rolled around and the school still wasn’t completely checked out, so we got on our buses as we normally would. Unfortunately, we weren’t aloud back into the school high school, so my winter coat, backpack, and pink polka-dotted bunny tea mug still reside in my locker. So, not only does that mean that I’m going to freeze tomorrow morning, and miss my morning cup of mango green tea dearly, but that also means I didn’t have to do my homework this evening.
Today wasn’t so bad. Lets just hope the school doesn’t blow up over night.
I say that because I want my fucking winter coat and tea mug, not so much for the purpose or receiving another day of learning, and education… and shit.

I've noticed this about October.
All the color, and the obvious ticking of time; the leaves falling and the cycle continuing… yet it’s almost always at a stand still. October seems dull, nearly every year. And for me, it’s always the month I look back on and think “Why the hell did I dress/act/look like that?” I don’t know why.
Hopefully that won’t happen this year, but who knows… it probably more than likely will considering I’m almost never satisfied with myself, but then again, who really is?
As far as this month goes, it’s been very boring, but I’ve been very busy if that makes any sense.
Anyhow, my schedule this week goes as follows:
Today: Christopher took me to run some errands for Halloween because that’s the kind of nice guy he is. I needed to buy white leggings but for some reason everywhere I checked had pretty much every other color (go figure) I also wanted to buy fake eye lashes, but there’s no way in hell I’m spending $6.99 on one time use eye lashes, I have my own. No thank you. Then, after my failed attempt at finishing my Halloween shopping, him and I had lunch at Panera Bread, it was lovely.
Tomorrow: I’m working after school from 3:00 until 8:00, which I’m actually psyched about considering I’m finally getting more hours, which also means more money, annnnd no regrets toward the fact that I finally got around to purchasing a new bag at Target for a mere $16.99. During my 15 minute break tomorrow I plan on stopping into Old Navy to buy a pair of lime green legging/pajama pants with white polka dots which I recently saw on the clearance rack Sunday. Hopefully they’re still there because if not that’ll be a failed Plan B, and I won’t know where to go from there as far as my Halloween constume goes. Also, a Dave’s Market is opening next door which means on my break I could easily buy pre-made foods, and sadly that makes me excited.
Thursday: I have to catch up on homework, attempt at last minute touches on my fairy costume, and possibly bug my mom into taking me to CVS so I can get more white eye shadow, but that’s completely uninteresting.
Friday: I’m working from 3:00 until 6:00 after school, then I really don’t know what’s going on from there just yet. Probably a whole lot of nothing, but we’ll see.
Saturday: Halloween, obviously. Which means I’ll be sleeping in until probably 10:00 the latest for once. I’ll probably get ready early considering I’m working 5:00 until 9:30 at FYE, buuut I also have to do my sisters costume makeup. I’m gonna end up doing mine first so that I won’t have to rush, but the only down side of that is that I could possibly become a mess before work. Apparently, our manager might give us permission to buy candy at Dave’s to ‘pass out to little children’ at FYE… as if that’s really the place to be on the evening on Halloween. My night at work will probably consist of a whole lot of chilling and G-PG movie watching over the three TVs in the back of the store. After I get out of work at 9:30 I’m hoping Chris and I will think of something to do. I kind of want to go to Thayer Street for bubble tea (still in my fairy costume, of course) or, go to Wickenden Street for coffee, or go out for ice cream… just SOMETHING. Even if it means pop corn and scary movies. I just don’t feel like being that girl having a movie marathon alone.
That’s pretty much it. I’ve been busy and hardly online. I have so many pictures that I need to post, and I’m getting really annoyed by the fact that I just haven’t had time for it.

For our anniversary this month (it’s been a year and a half) Christopher took me out for breakfast at Kountry Kitchen. (I don’t know why they would spell it with two K’s, it’s lame)
Then, we stopped by the grocery store and picked up two huge pumpkins, went back to his house and began our pumpkin carving festivities. Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures of our creations, but I’ll be sure to get on that the next time I get a chance, they’re too adorable.
Afterwards, I showed his mom up in pumpkin seed cooking. Which pretty much makes me the next Martha Stewart… except not really.
Later on that afternoon we decided to go on an adventure, which was really more like a ride throughout the back roads of Rhode Island. I never realized how nice some of the houses were, and how down right creepy some of the roads were. The trees looked wonderful with their bright autumn leaves splashed along the sides of the winding twists and turns.
Once we got back it was about 5:30, and Chris took a shower while I napped and waited for Dino, Chris’s mom’s fiance to make us dinner, which was surprisingly awesome.
Later on in the evening, Chris and I went to go see Paranormal Activity which I’m proud to say I demanded. Throughout the movie I was thinking “This isn’t too scary” but the ending totally made it worth paying nine dollars to see. I’m sure if the theater wasn’t full of laughing teenagers, I would have been more freaked out… but I found myself laughing more than I did screaming.
Yumm.

It sometimes weirds me out when I watch my 11 year old sister applying an excessive amount of lip gloss.

For Halloween, I let my sister borrow my clothes so that she could be an “80’s Rocker”.
The only thing is, those are my actual clothes, I actually wear those, maybe not together, but the fact that my regular, ordinary, every day clothes could be made into a costume, kind of made me reconsider my sense of style all together.
Either way, this photo was taken before her little 6th grade Halloween party.
DAWW.

I miss having the morning to myself.
I miss waking up with the sun shining through my blinds straight onto my eyelids and illuminating the whole room.
I miss the sound of birds chirping loudly to the point where they’re almost annoying and causing me to wake up at a time that I would consider to be early.
I miss feeling rested.
I miss stumbling down the stairs for a cup of coffee and knowing that I don’t have to do anything that day, and if I wanted to I could totally stay in my pajamas and watch Lifetime for hours upon hours.
I miss knowing that I could be schedule-less, and it wouldn’t affect the rest of my week.
I miss actually being able to taste my cereal, and knowing that I definitely had time to fry an egg if I damn well pleased.
I miss listening to my iPod in the shower for enjoyment, rather than a way to keep track of how long I’ve been in there.
I miss feeling like I have all the time in the world.
Moral of the story is, school has become quite a downer and after two months I’m already sick of it.

It turns out that I’m definitely working on Halloween this year.
Surprisingly, I’m not all that disappointed considering I didn’t really have plans to begin with, so at least I’ll be getting paid for dressing up, eating candy, and doing a whole lot of nothing.
I’ve started putting together my costume, and not to ‘toot my own horn’ but it’s coming out awesome.
Rather than spending a ridiculous $30.00 on a tutu that I’ll only wear once, I decided to make one.
I went to Micheal’s Arts and Crafts store, bought three rolls of lavender tulle, teal wired ribbon, and thin white sparkly ribbon as well, and then made my tutu. It looks great and matches perfectly with my gay ass fairy wings. Now, I just need to stop at Deb to buy white leggings, and find a shirt that’ll go well with it. I’m excited.
I’m probably going to get out of work between 7:30 and 9:30, I’m not exactly sure which yet. My manager put me on from 4:00 to 7:30, but I need to be home to do up my sisters makeup for when she goes out trick-or-treating, so going to work at 4:00 would be too early… not to mention, I’m sure she wouldn’t mind someone volunteering to work their evening of Halloween. ALSO, 9:30 isn’t bad at all, it takes away the time I would be sobbing in my own self pity over the fact that I have no life and no one to take me trick-or treating (lol), and it’s not too late to find something to do, or some way to entertain myself if possible…
I mean, if I get out at 9:30, that’ll still leave me plenty of time to like, bake or something? ahaha.
YEAH HALLOWEEN.
I love October, I just wish it felt like Autumn. (ie. I wish it wasn’t so cold)
