today i learned how aluminum foil is made

that was on oprah…it was actually pretty interesting.  they melt a big block of metal, so it turns into liquid..it reminds me of metal mario on n64.  gahh, i miss that game!  especially in the beginning when you can play with his face…it amuses me.  on friday of last week (the 25th) sara, david, rj, and i had DDR night, it’s sort of a tradition now.  we also played this card game called phase 10 which is a blast.  then on sunday (the 28th) i went bowling @ park tavern with my dad, bro, and andrew.  omg for once i didn’t suck!  yay!  it was so awesome, everyone was having a great time and it was cool doing something w/my dad besides going out to eat.  yesterday afternoon sara’s mom and sara picked me up and we went to hennepin tech so i could talk to a counselor while she was in class.  it was…umm…meh.  i’m bummed that i can’t take more generals there, but i’ll figure it out & make it work.  the financial aid system is stupid and frustrating though…grrr.  after her class we hopped on a bus to go over to the E.P. mall…i loved that bus.  it was so pretty and comfy and it reminded me of being in an airplane, except much better.  thennnn we got to the mall and went to subway and i bought lunch bc she forgot her card and thennnn we went to a few stores looking at clothes and i found the cutest stuff @ this store, Vanity.  AND i got a shirt for $3 at victoria’s secret, woooo for sales!  but now i’m broke ;[[  haha, i was totally going to save my money but i’ve had a pretty rough couple of weeks…and well, sometimes clothes help to heal the pain, lol.  i remember my dad bringing me to the mall for christmas about 4 or 5 years ago and he let me get whatever i wanted, and i found this vanilla lotion that i fell in love with.  i used it all the time and it lasted forever, but i think i may have lost it when my apartment had the fire.  anyway, i picked up some more and when we left the store i was going to put some on and i smelled it and sadly, it doesn’t smell the same!  i think they must’ve changed the ingredients ;[[  boo at them.  then we left the mall and drove by sara’s ex-boy’s house, just to look i guess.  idk why, lol.  then we literally ran to mikeal’s house to show david what i got at the mall…..then me and sara ran back to her house, but not before i made a snow angel outside of mike’s house.  and i pretended to be a fishy too.  yes.  p.s.: it was snowing.  and cold.  probably because of the snow.  hmm…makes sense.  then we played a little DDR and david drove me home, b/c he’s cool like that.  today i did absolutely nothing.  i layed around and acted like a bum.  mainly b/c of no energy and a slight lack of motivation.  i watched dr. phil….and oprah….and i also talked on the phone a lot.  OH but then andrew got home and we went to borders bookstore and he got me a book on origami, so that i won’t be bored when sitting at home.  we already made a ladybug together!  ;]]  sooo cute.  tomorrow is DDR day and i must say i’m pretty darn excited.  my brother’s birthday is in a few days….idk what i’m going to do yet.  and sara’s is on the 8th.  yeppers.  i was thinking about when i was 11 and i went on aol for HOURS with my friends and went into chatrooms, i haven’t done that for soooooo long!  i remember typing 11/f/mn….now i’m like holy sh*t if i went back into one of those chatrooms it would be all 20/f……that is one of many things making me feel old lately.  lol.  time goes by so fast.  i remember seeing people in those chatrooms that were 20 and i was like hahaha they’re old.  lol.  dammit.
