I had a bit on my plate yesterday, and I can't wait to tell you all about it! But first, some other less exciting news. Finals are in two weeks, so of course I'm in complete shut down mode and all I can think about is summer. Speaking of summer I might be getting an internship at a library to pass the time.
So the reason this is Sunday and not Saturday is because of time and things. The reason I'm posting on a Sunday is because I got home at 11:40 last night which was the last bus home. I went to the city for two reasons. 1) I went to see Dark Shadows at the mall and 2) I went to go see Waterfire.
Dark shadow was good, but in the sense that I don't regret seeing it. Three stars at most. I like Johnny Depp and Tim Burton, but this movie was eh. I laughed when cued and felt sad when needed. Basically not the best series-to-film-adaption. And the mall part. I'm not exactly a people person, no joke. A mall is like one big high school hallway. Everyone's rude, pushy, loud, and like to stop in the middle of walking to stand in the way. AND OH MY GOD DO THEY STARE! It's so annoying. I hate the mall. The one good thing is this:
I don't know if you know what Waterfire is, because I'm pretty sure its just in Rhode Island. Basically there is this event in the middle of Providence where they set up stands in the water, light the wood on fire, and pass out roses. Something that's more fun to do when your in a relationship. Unless you're me. They had people painted and dressed as statues.
Here is a really awful picture of this girl. My sisters phone doesn't have flash an neither did mine. So she had to take the photo while someone with flash did. I got a better picture of a different person, but it has my sister in it and I don't think she'd appreciate me putting her picture up. I donated a dollar to this pirate statue guy and he gave me this little orange note that I seem to have misplaced. Whoopsie!
We, being my sister, mother and I, sat on a park bench not to far away from a stand that was letting people hang dedication stars and luminaries. I decided to do a star, which came with two luminaries for ten dollars.
On either side are the two luminary notes which are pretty cheesy I must say. The star was what I really wanted to do though. When I saw them I about fell over and knew what I had to do. So I wrote Ester a 'This Star Won't Go Out' and hung it on a tree.
It's a picture filled post, I must say. this is the highlight of my week and most likely the weeks to come. Questions. Yes he did actually get a cookie with a rock. I know! And I'm not sure where I would go if I could live anywhere. I probably wouldn't leave New England. And if I did I probably wouldn't leave the U.S. I just don't see myself outside of my own little bubble. Whenever I think about the day I move away, if ever the song 'We Gotta Get Out Of This Place' by The Animals comes to mind.
JUST finished making this video clip my sister took of this guy on a gondola swinging fire all professional-like. Anyway, got things to do on this not Saturday day.
