Life-the Good and the Bad all in One!

Parties are generally a good place to start right? Well last week, I had the opportunity to go to a fun party at my friend Mackormick's house last Saturday (not last night, but the week before). His friend Whitley was turning 15, so he threw a surprise party for her.

That's most everyone at the party. It was such a fun group of kids, and when is night swimming not fun? I know it's not night in this picture, but we did swim at night-I promise!

Just after the group picture was taken, my friend Mitchell pointed out how beautiful the sun was. Washington has had so many fires in the state the past month or so, so the sun was really pink. The clouds over the sun looked cool too. I told Mitchell that I would take a picture of this and tag him in it on Facebook-that's how much he liked the sun.

The night before that, my sisters went to a party where they played the "Hunger Games" they each had a district that they were from, and everyone was really into it. My sisters had me be their "stylist" more or less, so I did their hair and makeup.

I took some picture of them before they left. It was just too hard to resist! And of course, I had to do a little editing since it always makes things more fun!

I know that the cut-outs that I did were awful, but it was irresistible. And yes, I know it's cheesy, but I just had to!

Last week was Homecoming week. You know, the spirit days, the hall decorating, the football game, the Homecoming trophy, and the dance. The Spirit days? I dressed up for all of them but two. That was only because I didn't have any sports' logo clothing and I forgot about pajama day. The hall decorating? The juniors won this year, which is a bummer since we won the decorating the past two years! I went to go help decorate the hall last Monday night from six until nine. Yes it is a long time, but it is barely enough time if you do a good job. Our hallway was very plain this year compared to the past, which was probably why we lost. I still think that our hallway was better than the Juniors' though because theirs seemed extremely sloppy. Oh well! We won the football game against Lewis and Clark 31-0. I decked myself out with CV spirit for the game, and had a blast hanging out with friends there-mostly just Nathan though.

I took this picture when I got home from the game so that I would have a picture of how crazy I was. Yes, I did paint my hand then put the print on my face. The best part though was that it was outlined with gold glitter. The hardest part about doing that was that I really wanted to lick my lips, but I couldn't because they were covered in blue paint. I guess you can see it a little better in this picture:

It was pretty fun! What you can't see about my crazy get up though, are my crazy red skinny jeans and my royal blue zumba skirt. I figured that if I was going to the have some spirit, I might as well go all out since it is my senior year. Who won the Homecoming trophy? The seniors of course! We have it now for the second year in a row! There was no way that anyone was going to steal it from us! Oh and the dance? I couldn't tell you since I didn't go! I'm sure that everyone who went had a fun time, so you can ask them if you really want to know.
