fell off the planet?
I FORGOT TO TELL YOU ABOUT THE BEST THING THAT HAPPENED!!!!
Okay. So.
Marching band did one good thing for my life. (Okay really like MB isn't that awful. I just like to pretend it was.) WE WENT TO CALIFORNIA! It was great! So fun! Yay!!!
The band fund usually gives us a couple free game trips a year. This time we went to USC in October and it was the worst football game ever. But, that's not the point. The point is Scott and I got a free trip to California!
Since we aren't THAT important we had to drive. I think there were six giant buses total. Since Scott's a drumline person we rode bus 4, the drumline bus. It actually wasn't as bad as it sounds. Everyone was either drunk or tired enough to just be quiet and fall asleep. We left about 1am on Friday morning and drove all the way to Southern California. I slept most of the way there (unlike band tour 2010. Sheesh that was terrible.) and it went by super fast! We got to our hotel and threw our crap in our rooms and then went to Six Flags. SIX FLAGS. And since the band gives you tons of money to use for food and stuff, admission was pretty much free cause we got a group discount! I hung out with some peeps while I waited for Scott to get there (cause his dumb instructor made them go on this stupid factory tour thing).
HOLY GIANT ROLLER COASTERS. The lines were pretty long and that was sucky but whatever. It was Six Flags and it was free and I didn't care. We rode some stuff and then I finally met up with Scott. We went on warm up ride and it was great! So fast and so fun! I was shocked that such a cool ride only had a 15 minute wait! We just screamed and enjoyed our time together. We rode this one that straps you in, lifts you up and turns you so you are staring straight at the ground, and then takes off super fast. You feel like you are flying the whole time! There are so many different kinds of roller coasters and rides! You know that when there are three different things strapping you in, it's gonna be a good one! It was so much fun and I loved every second of it.
We had dinner together and it was the most delicious thing I'd ever eaten. Probably because I was starving to death.. But man, it was great. We just sat and talked and laughed and reviewed our day. We discussed our favorite rides and the ones we wanted to squish in before we left. We got assaulted by some creepy people and got super annoyed of the "spooky" areas. But, it was still great.
Eventually we had to leave but I wasn't too upset because I was way tired and so ready to shower. We got back to the hotel and I hung out with Eva, Elise, Ash in our room and then Michael and Scott came over and we played some games. And then we had to sleep so I walked Scott out and we made out in the stairwell for thirty minutes. It was great. There's something so thrilling about knowing you're being "bad". hahahaha.
We woke up and had to get ready for game day. Scott and I had a fancy breakfast at the hotel together and enjoyed some more time alone. It was nice to kinda feel like we were on vacation for a while.
We packed up all the buses, drove to the stadium, got dressed, did a mini version of Ute Walk, had lunch, and got set up for the game. We were tucked away in a little corner and it was super dumb. We were all so tired and our drum major scolded us for not being excited. But it was like a total beatdown. Whatever. Plus it was like ultra hot outside and we all wanted to die because we were in full uniform.
Again I slept most of the way home and when we got there it was freezing. My mom picked us up (bless her soul. It was like 6 am Sunday morning). She tried to make small talk but we were both so tired I didn't care to talk about anything. I hated having to leave Scott after having so much fun together for a whole weekend. It made me want to be married that much more. I knew we probably wouldn't get to do something like that again for a while and I was grateful for the experience. It was a lot of fun :)
Of course, I took like zero pictures. These are the only shots I captured from the whole entire weekend.
This is what our first sleepover looked like ;)
Scott wearing my new sunnys...
In his sexy V neck shirt that he bought to make me happy.

Me and Swoop at the game!
