Yay! Prom was soo much fun!

I got my nails done Friday night it wasn't my first manicure, but it was my first full pedicure and I was sure I was going to hate it! But as ticklish as I am, I actually let her massage my feet and legs and everything and it was fine. After that, I fell asleep and then Martin picked me up and we went to North to suprise Conrad. Nick met us there, but since it was storming bad they cancelled it, so we went to Starbucks then picked up Connors and ended up just sitting on Martin's patio watching the storm for a long time. It was fun, because I like those 4 people a lot. I noticed the 4 of us hanging out a lot lately, and it makes me miss Diana sooo much...

Saturday I woke up early and got my hair done. We left a little early to go to the store first to buy what I wanted in my hair, but Mom and I couldn't agree and ended up arguing, so I left the store with nothing. :( Then we went to the salon, which was in old Carrolton. First we went to this cute little coffee place. And outside the gazebo (how do you spell that) was all decorated with flowers and lights and gorgeous and I really wanted my pictures there. But I held my tounge. Then Mom started to take me into this antique store, and I told her we didn't have any time to go shopping. It turns out, my 80 year old hair stylist was inside the antique store/salon. I wanted to cry. As I was sitting there waiting for my turn, I was absolutely miserable. I just knew she was going to do this terrible job because she's old and she sells antiques and does hair on the side and I was really really upset. But I found about 20 pictures of what I wanted my hair to look like and made her look at all of them before she even started, and it turned out alright. Not what I wanted, but it was ok. I left there hating it, but then it kind of grew on me, until I got to the flower shop and I saw everyone's pretty hair and got sad again.

After the hair thing, I went to Conrad's house. His mom was in charge of my make up. She sells Mary-Kay, so she has unlimited access to samples, which are just the right amount. In fact, since my mom sells Avon, it's the same way with her. But I didn't want her to do my make up, which is another reason why she wasn't very happy with me. But Mrs. Schaars did an amazing job transforming me into something beautiful. No one recognized me, and I got more compliments then than any other day of my life. But as we were sitting at the dining room table I tired to include my mom as much as I could. I would ask her which colors she liked and how she liked it so far and every once and a while she'd offer a suggestion to Mrs. Schaars. Sometime while all of this was happening, Connor came downstairs wearing ugly jeans and a wrinkled shirt, and I told him he had to change. So he went and ironed his nice black clothes from Ireland, and I put on my dress and he came downstairs and was shocked and amazed. I was pretty. We took some pictures together, the last one was him carrying me. It was fun. Then our moms talked for forever and we got bored.

Then about 1:30 I'd say, Mom and I went to get the flowers. They weren't what I ordered at all. Not even the same color. In fact, they didn't even match each other. I didn't even think they were mine. But that's ok too, I ended up liking them also. Then I ate KFC. It tastes good and I was hungry. And then really really bored. So I called Nick and he was bored too and I headed over to his house. He needed to takes some pictures of him to put in the band video. After arguing with his mom about what shirt to wear, he took two, and we climbed over a stone wall into this one really pretty place and took pictures with a waterfall in the background and they turned out really really nice. He's pretty. Then we went back to his house and looked through old picture albums with his mom trying to find a baby picture for the video also. But around 4ish I think I went home, because I was tired again.

Dad wanted to go see Kill Bill with Brent, but my mom said he had to see me first, so I had to go put on my dress and shoes and jewelry and even take my purse downstairs so we could take one picture, then he left. Then I got some stuff ready like food and cleaned up my room and stuff. I was putting CDs in the car (Hanson, Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls, Now 2, Rascal Flatts, and Simple Plan) when Nick and his mom came. Then we all went to the Gaylord Texan (it just sounds lovely, doesn't it?) to take pictures with the whole group. Pictures there took forever and a half. My mom didnt get to take my picture in front of any of the places she wanted to, because some of the parents were really pushy. One time she yelled when this one lady walked in front of her camera. I laughed at her for that. But Nick and I got to take a picture with Kevin and Amy, and I really like that picture.

Then back to my house to drop of the parents (who went to dinner together. it's hard when they're friends because they talk about me and nick) and we went to pick up Larry and Aubrey. Then dinner came with a valet. And Nick was very grown up when he tipped him. And the boys took care of the meal. And it was good. I ate a lot.

Then prom was sooo much fun. We took pictures at first, then walked around talking to everyone and seeing everyone for about the first half. Then Nick and I went dancing for the second half. We slow danced and swing danced and fast danced and macarena danced and it was soo much fun. And then I did some Ashley dancing. I'm good at dancing. Haha. On the dance floor I think we actually mostly talked to Malory, cus Larry and Aubrey wouldn't come and dance much. But I had so much fun at prom. I can't remember the last time I had that much fun!

Then we went to my house. It was terrible. And boring. So after 2 movies, Nick and I went to IHOP. It was good, but neither of us felt like eating much. He paid, it was nice. Then we drove around because we didn't want to go back to my house yet. Nick kinda dozed off, and with no one to talk to I was getting pretty drowzy myself. I had to turn the radio up and sing out loud to stay awake. Then we went to my house and picked up Aubrey and Larry and took them to Aubrey's house, then Nick and I went to church to sing in the first service. Michelle skipped. Nick's breakfast didn't agree with him. Then we talked ouside in the parking lot for a little while about prom. Then home.

I tired to sleep, after i spent half an hour taking out my hair, but my mom had all these ladies come over, and they all rang the doorbell. And talked loudly, because they're old and can't hear well. Then we had a Ruach concert and had to be at church at 1:45. Then lunch, then choir, then youth, then out again with Connor and Martin. I told you we hang out a lot. We picked up chips and salsa and headed to Connor's house and sat on the porch eating and it was fun too. Then we plugged Martin's camera into the tv to watch pics from prom, but Nick's mom called about 12 times, so I had to take him home. And then I went home. It was about 10. And a little later I went to sleep because I was still so tired.

The end and prom was so much fun and I want to have a prom 2. Like homecoming 2, but better.
