Hi! I am
really sorry for my super long absence! As I think I mentioned, I was at my grandparents house. While we were there, we worked. :) I dusted, spread mulch, and was the official "what are we going to have for dinner" idea comer-upper {yeah....not a very technical name..} :)
It was da bomb. {hey, I entertain easily..}
Also, we went to the mall. I don't know how to communicate to you how going to a mall just fills me with
dread.
~It's loud.
~There are
waaay to many people than my comfort zone allows.
~There's always the possibility of meeting up with people I used to know...from 2nd grade :P I know, for some of you that would be a cause for celebration. But for me...I just find it slightly awkward. :P
Keeping all these things in mind, {okay maybe not the last one...it doesn't really have anything to do with what I'm about to tell you}read my...ahh... experience. :)
Okay, so we were looking for board shorts for me. {
quick back story info! I'm really modest when it comes to bathing suits. So I always wear board shorts over my bating suit [sometimes even a t-shirt, much to my mother's chagrin.] The only board shorts I will wear, though, are the ones that come to my knees. I even tried out guy's swimsuits, but they come mid-calf on my leg and are
really baggy. And not to mention ugly. Wait, why did I say "not to mention"? That phrase confuses me. If it's not to mention, why mention it?!?! Ehh, whatever ;)} We checked all over the place {well, not
all over...we skipped the lingerie stores, I'm sure it would have made my brother a bit uncomfortable} ;) We finally came to an
un-named store with a really cool entrance. I didn't want to go in...it was different from my usual Macy's and Old Navy. But my mom practically dragged me in.
The moment we ducked through the door {I really am serious, the entry must've been made with 6 year olds in mind} I knew it was Hollister. If all the seagull like silhouettes didn't tip me off, it was the twilight-like darkness and blaring music. As we weaved in between randomly placed tables and what seemed like 100s {probably only 30...} of teens, I inwardly cringed at the two biggest things I dislike about going to the mall crammed in just one store. That's when I backed up into a girl about my age. She probably apologised about five times. O_O {all the while I was thinking "No, I'm sorry! It was my fault, you're okay!" but, struck by my annnoyingly inconvenient shyness, I just stood there. I gave her a kinda half-hearted smile and my mom apologized for me...thanks mom :) And to the girl I mowed over: Sorry for my clumsiness...and thanks for apologizing even though it wasn't your fault, that was nice of you. :)}
When we got back to my brothers and grandma sitting outside, I was almost hyper-ventilating. I declared to anybody would listen, "I'm
never going back in there.
Ever." to which my mom replied, "Oh, my dear, sheltered daughter..."
Bahahaha! Now you all know how sheltered I really am :) But I like it that way.
So, this month I probably won't be blogging too much more, but I'll get back to regular blogging in May...I'm kinda liking this break! :)
Sorry for not commenting on you
guy's people's blogs, but I'll try to get updated! :)
