Alright, so I started off the day thinking that it would be boring and I ended it bored... yet so much stuff happened in between.
For those of you who don't know I work as a camp counselor. I am also a goody goody... yes I admit it I'm a good girl all the way. In an effort to expand my boundaries and get over my fear of meeting people IRL I hung out with some of my fellow counselors after work. We went to get something to eat, which was fine. I actually had fun... it was all going great and I was pretty proud of myself. Then my friend and I got invited to a party. I thought well, I'm already expanding my boundaries so I might as well...
Then the lies started... I had to tell my mom that I was staying at my friend's house, she said that we were staying at another friend's house l, and actually we were staying at another (boy) counselor's house. Ugh. I thought, you know I can handle this, it will be fine!
The party... well as our friend put it "You go to this party if you want to drink, smoke, or get laid" well I didn't want to do any if those soo...
We got to the party and it was exactly the kind of party he described. I had absolutely NO fun. And to make it worse I saw someone I know. Someone who knows I'm a "good girl" and who's immediate response to seeing me was, "OMG!? Ali Mathews, at a party?" I'm sure everyone will know about it by tomorrow, and they will interrogate me.
I didn't drink, smoke, or do anything with boys... so yeah it sucked. But I was surrounded by it, so I'm proud of myself. We left early.
I decided that I like being good. Because really if you need to do that stuff to have fun... well it's just not for me.
Sorry. This is long, rambling, and my point got lost somewhere in between my people skills and the sucky party. Give me a break I'm finishing this 3 minutes from 12... and you do want me to post today right? I need to stop talking...
I love you all!
Ali
Stow chat quote of the day: "I AM RAVENCLAW HEAR ME... chirp?"
Ali, I know exacly what you're talking about! But being a goodie goodie is much more freeing then being one of those people who were drinking at those parties, But good for you that you went out and had these experences and stayed true to who you are all the way!
ReplyDeleteYou are also lucky that you posted this today or I would have sooo bugged you about it!
<3
I am the same exact way. I went to a frat party last year and saw someone I knew from high school and it was pretty interesting. I called my friend Kassie to tell her about it and she said "MY INNOCENT LITTLE NIKKI WENT TO A FRAT PARTY??"
ReplyDeleteThat was pretty much everyone's reaction.
And I didn't really have fun either. And there was nothing to drink because all they had was alcohol. I don't drink and couldn't ask for soda because they only used soda as a chaser.
BOO.
There is always tomorrow! <3 Can't wait to read more! :)
