Eh... 3 and a bit months to the formal... ...what are the chances of me having a boyfriend by then?? nil, I know. Apparently Chryssa's gonna set up me and Eils with her cousins, no offence to Chryssa, but if her cousins think her friends are as skanky as she is, I dont want anything to do with them... ...maybe ill stick with Barbara's idea and go with one of my single friends and we can pretend to be lesbians for the night. Jacqui has a date for it alreay, JACQUI, argh... this is Jacqui who still blushes and giggles during sex ed. Alright, its nto her boyfriend, but her best friend Jason is going with her... maybe I could convince ehr to set me up with one of her Japanese school friends... although it would be weird because I wouldnt know them and theres always the racial boundaries... (aka, theyre probably very smart) Still... maybe Eileen and I can be the oddballs of the night, yet again, we always seem to be the odd ones out, we dress differently, we act differently, well, not differently, apparently were immature... and Danielle dosent want to be seen with Eils at the formal, why? Because she's wearign a black and purple princess dress with big blue, yellow and pink polka dots on it... I still have to buy the material for my dress... I dont want to have to go through the material section of spotlight... its filled with little old ladies who are knitting beanies for their grandchildren, then they come up to me and comment on how im soo lucky to have such lovely hair and I feel like telling them "no, its fake, my real hair is horrible" but it would sound odd, so I just stand there and nod quietly. Even better at that I havent discided on the colour, so it wont be a quick visit either... and I wont get to linger around the art section as usual and end up buying paint or glass or a piece of wood... no... material... at least ive limited it down to 3 colour combinations (stupid 2 coloured pattern) Lime green with army print pleats Yellow with hot pink pleats Orange with yellow pleats Stuff the pastel blue with black mesh pleats... mesh is a pain in the arse to sew with... http://www.denverfabrics.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/PPR/13198.300.jpg heh... i found a picture of my pattern online... (yes, i have no life) its the top of the pink one with the bottom of the blue one... ...i could never hold up a strapless dress...
