Day Six: My Sister's Friend Annoys My Mom

6/19/14, 9:18 AM PDT

Hey, I'm actually writing my anniversary story now! Wooooooooooooo! Here's my choice of writing music, gonna listen to that on repeat for a few hours.



Same day, 1:54 PM PDT

Picked up my sister from school again. Had to bring her friend, Laura, along because my mom and Laura's mom have a deal going on where they alternate days on who picks up both kids so that they can get more sleep. But I'm pretty sure my mom is 100 percent done with Laura because she DOES NOT STOP TALKING EVER. We had to bring her with us to my job orientation in Carmel Mountain because her mom wasn't gonna be able to pick her up before 3 PM and the entire car ride, she was practically screaming. I mean I didn't care, I thought it was hilarious, but my mom likes quiet car rides, so even though she didn't say anything out of politeness, I could tell she was this close to bursting a blood vessel.

The tipping point? When my mom stopped at McDonalds and asked us (as in my sister and I) what we wanted to eat.

"I want an Oreo McFlurry!" Laura says. No please. No hesitation. No waiting for my mom to ask her directly.

It was around then that mom gave out the most exhausted sigh I've ever heard.



Same day, 9:56 PM PDT

Job orientation at the summer school that I'm working at sucked. Everyone was either from Scripps or Westview, so they all had their own little social groups EXCEPT ME. I arrived 30 minutes early, so awkward, friendless me just sat alone, playing Tetris on my iPhone until the actual orientation started. Then, awkward, friendless me just walked unnoticed in the crowd, following the head of the summer program until training ended.

The campus is really pretty though. It's on a sort of hillside terrace and one building is half on the main terrace, half on a lower story all by itself, so the entire campus sort of looks like a sideways L. It's really hard to explain and I thought it would be rude if I took pictures, so you're just gonna have to take my word that the place was really nice.

After I got home, I napped for a bit, then got on a Google+ call with Angela and Christina. They have this new feature where you can draw things on people's faces and the drawings follow their face as they move around. Basically, think of those really crappy webcam effects where it makes it look like you're wearing a hat or a crown or glitter or whatever. Except it's actually pretty decent. Look at some of the stuff we made.

Angela tracked a drawing of Mario's hat on herself.

Mario

Wants a lick

OF YOUR SOUL.

She also drew a few other things.

Duckface Goldilocks. Thankfully extinct in the wild.

She's either a strawberry or a Cabbage Patch Kid that's high.

Ironically, Drag Queen Angela looks more like a girl than
normal Angela does.

These two are probably my favorite.

Angela doesn't like space camp.

No really, Angela really doesn't like space camp.

We didn't limit our facial vandalism to Angela though.

"It wants to crawl inside my mouth."

Oh, and here's a picture of Angela trying to strangle her dog.

Look at how happy she is to crush that poor dog's trachea.






RFotD: Someone divided Star Wars Episode 4 into 15 second chunks and asked people around the world to select one of those chunks to reshoot in however style they want. Star Wars Uncut is the final product of this project.

SGAT: Wrote a decent chunk of my anniversary story.
