Life has been exciting I suppose. Friday night Becca and I went to the Frist center, but didn't stay that long because we really wanted to go to Urban Outfitters, which we did. Saturday I had my senior pictures. I thought they were at one o'clock, but mom found out a little after nine that they were actually at ten, so it was a mad dash to get ready. I showered, tried to pick out my outfits, made mom blow dry my hair while I put on make-up, frantically straightened my hair and got ready. But in the end I'm glad I had an earlier time, because then I got it over with. Not a fan of getting senior pictures. NOT FUN. After it was finally over though, I went to Kelsey's and we began preparing everything we needed for Quidditch. We were able to find enough hula hoops, so we taped them all to pvc pipes, and they looked decent. We also found some bludgers and took care of other little things like that. That night, I went to my friend Sarah's house, and we just sat around her fire outside for a long time, it was fun.
So, Sunday was the infamous Quidditch match. It was so much fun! It was fairly frantic getting everything ready, especially since we had someone cancel half an hour before, and one of our subs never showed. Plus, we had trouble securing the goals in the ground, we're going to have to think of something else for our next game. But eventually, we played! It was hilarious, it took less then a minute before people were falling over and tripping and all of that. We definitely had to revise a lot of the rules, but we got it so at least we could somewhat play. Unfortunately, the snitch thing didn't really work out. But thats just because our sub for the snitch was awful, she just stood where we all could see her so it took about three seconds for the seekers to get her. Eventually, we gave up on it because the seekers were getting annoyed with running, so they just joined in as chasers. But Gryffindor definitely won, so that was really exciting! Plus, I think everyone agreed that we should definitely play again, so in my head that means it was a success.
I love all of you so much, wish I could be in four places at once and visit all of you!
that second picher is epic.
