marenziGood weekend, you guys! I'm really looking forward to the Wincon reports, because it looked amazing - I'm sure everyone has some really good stories to tell. :)
Baltimore was tempting, since it's so close, but it was homecoming here & I'm glad I didn't miss it. Spirit week went fairly smoothly - a few wardrobe malfunctions as usual, but nothing serious - and color day on Friday sort of EXPLODED. We were white, and painted all the senior cars and crepe'd our hallways white and were generally obnoxious to underclassmen. The pep rally was... well, the lower school's there for part of it, so it starts off G-rated. And then, of course, when they were gone the senior boys who were cheerleading for powderpuff ran out, stripped, & danced to 'Womanizer' until the music got cut off. Because it's not senior year if you don't take everything way too far. :)
We kicked ass in powderpuff - our class is really athletic and REALLY competitive, so of course we were tackling and sliding and breaking all the rules. So much fun, really, I have a three-inch gash down my side from the turf field. AND THEN (I am such a huge pyro) there was a three-story-high bonfire!! My skin roasted off. Amazing. Saturday was the actual football game - we won, something like 54-0, so it wasn't exactly exciting - but our volleyball team is now 23-0, and of all of that, they've only lost one set. Seriously. Watching them sort of makes me think that they could spike my head off.
I think I took over 500 pictures this week - three albums on Facebook, once I edited out the ones of the floor and blurry sports photos and knocking out a few of the 100+ fire pictures.
Mmm, high school. Spreading the crazy. ♥
