Fiesta! All day, Everyday.

Do you want to hear about my day??? Because it was THE BEST.
I went on my last high school field trip to Fiesta Texas in San Antonio with a bus load of amazing people.
And it was EXACTLY what I needed.

The pass few days I had been feeling awfully down and gloomy. Just everywhere I went, everyone I saw, and everything I did depressed me a bit more. BUT today made it all disappeared. It started out with loading on to a charter bus at 5:30 in the not so bright and shiny morning. I slept a good portion of the way to the park, but woke up to watch The Addams Family and play some sort of werewolf game where I kept killing off innocent villagers. We stopped at Buc-ee's for some bfast and got to the park a few minutes before it opened.

I haven't been to an amusement park in a few years and was really craving some roller coasters - because roller coasters are my favorite thing, well one of them, like if a roller coaster came in liquid form I'd be willing to shoot it through my veins... So we kinda formed into a group and set off. We started out with some of the smaller rides, but I was yearning for some roller coasters. At first, the one we were in line for broke down, and then we found out the Superman wasn't running, but we finally got on a ride AND THEN THE FIRST ROLLER COASTER STARTED WORKING AND SUPERMAN STARTED RUNNING SO IT WAS OKAY. Roller coasters make me laugh hysterically because I'm having so much fun on them, I pretty much look like a seal, clapping my arms together and barking, by the end. They were just a great, and very needed, thrill.

Aside from the fun of the coasters, I ended up with an awesome group of people who just kept me laughing and smiling throughout the day - that is long lines, hot sun, dark lunches, and back-and-forth walking. But none of that was even bad, I honestly cannot complain about this trip. I amusement parked until I felt sick at my stomach, which conveniently was around the time we were loading back on the buses. And when I got back to my seat I was dirt tired, woozy, dehydrated, and sweaty. Everyone was. So you would think it would be a calm ride home... It was for the first 45 minutes on the way back to Buc-ee's for dinner (btw they have awesome grilled cheese sandwiches that I am just learning of), but then all of the sudden it was like we were all high; high on exhaustion, high on life, and high on sugar.  And the ride home was crazy. At one point we are watching Avatar, and the next I have friends behind making turbans and weaves out of blankets. AND then they started doing yoga and had there legs all up in the air while my friends beside and in front of me are chanting at the top of their lungs beneath a blanket. And all I knew to do was laugh, and I laughed hard. We went on to share stories and make fun of teachers and have a few random top-of-our-lung ballad sing-a-longs. The bus driver would seriously speed up when we started singing to get us out of his bus faster. And the entire way, no matter how ridiculous EVERYONE was being, I could not stop smiling.

It was a FUN day, everyone. FUN. :)
I'm really glad I ended up going.

Thank you for entertaining me and allowing me to talk about my day with you. Tomorrow is my last regular day of high school. Finals start Friday and I don't think I have to take any, so like... I'm done. We're done.
I cried a lot last night in Glee's graduation/finale because all these friends were leaving each other and having to say goodbye, but I haven't gotten that feeling IRL, yet...? And maybe I should be feeling that because I am not really getting much of a summer with them... My family is moving this summer and I can plan on visiting all I want, but my plans tend to be put on the back burner in this household, so.... Idk.
But I know that I'm bringing a crap load of pictures tomorrow to glue to the dozens of banners of students in the main hall because through all the major events this year they have managed to keep me off the wall, so I'm adding myself. And I have to get a few more people to sign my year book. After today I really don't want to have to go to school tomorrow but... just one more day, that's all I've got, man.

I have to go because my dog missed me all day and can't stand to be ignored for a computer. Sorry this is sort of BLAH, I'm just still all happy and excited from today...


And anyone who went today and reads this is going to think I'm so lame for coming straight home to write this, but.. oh well [:
