Victoria and I got stuck in an elevator in the Student Union Building. And not even the BROKEN one. WTF?
My mom came up today because she had to drop off my sister at Girl Scout Camp for some weird weekend thing and I needed to give her extra boxes and suitcases to take home and I needed money for books. She also ended up driving Victoria to the bus station since she had to go home and do a Gymboree party tomorrow. We also ended up going grocery shopping and HOLY SHIT I bought a lot of food. Mostly beverages, actually, and some fruit. I now have four and a half gallons of fruit juice. One gallon of apple juice, one of white grape, half a gallon of cranberry, half of white cranberry, half of regular grape, and half of white cranberry peach juice. I wanted to stock up because juice is heavy and I don't want to carry it home from the store. I just need to control myself so I don't drink it all in a week.
I also opened a checking and savings account at Citizens Bank, so I will soon have a debit card, yay! My mom also took all my work study checks with her (over $300) and she's going to deposit them in my account in Yonkers. Woot. As soon as I have both money and my debit card, I shall be purchasing nice nice yarn online for to make super Hogwarts scarves and things. I got a book called Charming Knits, which has patterns for Harry Potter related items, like the gray school sweaters with the House colored stripes on them, the scarves, Quidditch sweaters, even SOCKS! Like, House Quidditch socks and patterns for Dobby's socks, with little snitches on them! Also a whole bunch of other things. OMG I AM ALL ABOUT KNITTING NOW.
Also, I may be going to Greece next March for spring break. My sister is getting to go to Portugal with my aunt and uncle in April during her spring break this year because they're going with my uncle's brother and his kids, and they needed a babysitter. So they're paying for her to go and she gets to spend a week in a villa in Portugal. They asked me too, but I have school that week and they don't want me to skip. BUT! They said they'd take me on their next vacation, which was GOING to be Peru (which would have been AWESOME), but that's the rainy season in March, so they switched to Greece. Which is awesome, because that's where they keep the history. Plus, they're planning not only a land-trip in Greece but also a MEDITERRANEAN CRUISE as well. OMG SO EXCITED. I really hope the Greece idea pans out. I get to go on a trip regardless, but Greece would be AWESOME. I am also considering going to visit my uncle's brother in Ireland at some point because they have an extra room and I could stay there and see Ireland or something. Dunno when this would happen though... probably the summer after I graduate if I don't have a job (which is unlikely as I don't know what I want to do).
