It's The End of The World as We Know It.... And I Feel Fine

Well, this may be my last post ever. Which would be sad. (To be honest, I really do not believe that the world is ending. I'm just giving the Mayans the benefit of the doubt.)

So, spend your last few minutes listening to these songs about the end of the world. And don't do anything stupid. Because YOLO. (Am I the only one that doesn't understand YOLO? Like, yeah, you only live once, so you shouldn't do something stupid that could kill you. But people use it like "Oh I'm going to jump off this cliff! YOLO!" or "I'm going to take illegal drugs! YOLO" or "I'm going to climb in this great white shark's mouth when my leg is bleeding! YOLO!" Seriously? Why not, "I am going to spend this beautiful day I have been graciously given to help everyone I love! YOLO!" or "I'm going to post some videos about the end of the world on my blog so that everyone can enjoy their last few moments on earth (possibly) listening to some music! YOLO!")

Well, I really hope the world doesn't end. Peace out Suckahs!

Partying All Night Long!

Well, I did it! I pulled my first all nighter! And, no not because of homework, or anything reasonable like that, but because I was already out until 4, so we decided to just go all the way!

Last night, there was a dance for my dorms. It was a formal ball, and I never turn down an opportunity to dress up! I was hoping I would get asked to the dance, but I knew if I didn't, I would just go and party it up with my friends, so it would be ok. One of my friends kept saying that he didn't know who to ask, when most of the girls in our group of friends did not have dates yet. So about an hour before the dance started, some of my friends who weren't going were saying that he wasn't even going to go now. Well, I wanted him to go, and since he wouldn't ask anyone, I decided to ask him. (Which is pretty typical of me, seeing as probably 80% of the dates I have been on in my life, I have asked the guy.) I must say, I was kinda shocked/excited when he said yes with such short notice. (And when I say kinda, I mean I was really excited. Like so excited, I started jumping around squealing with excitement when I hung up the phone. So I really hope the phone actually hung up and he didn't hear me. Because that would have been super embarrassing. But I guess I don't really care about embarrassment at this point, since I'm writing about it on my blog.)
Getting ready for the dance was really fun. A bunch of us girls went into one of our rooms and blasted music and did each other's hair and did our make-up and just had a blast! I found it really funny that everyone was curling their hair to be all "fancy", and I straightened mine. Oh the irony! Haha! The dresses we wore ranged from nice church dresses to full on prom dresses! I wore a dress I had gotten for my junior year Winter Formal, that has been worn on many other occasions. It was a salmon-y pink color and floor-length. Us girls took pictures in the lobby, and then walked over to the Cannon Center so that the few of us with dates could meet them.
The Cannon Center had been decorated to look like a castle. There was a bridge and fake moat outside, and inside, the walls were covered to look like stones and there was gold and purple fabric hung every where. They had caricature artists, and a photo station with props, and carriage rides. (My date and I only took pictures because the lines for everything else were forever long.) Then there was the actual dance. It was so fun! Our group was soooo crazy! (Because honestly, dancing is no fun unless you are just letting loose and going crazy!) During the slow songs, my date and I would prance around and spin and make fun of other serious couples dancing. Our goal for the night was to have one normal slow dance, and we failed. :P But that's ok, because we had fun being weird! 
After the dance, we went with a couple of our friends to WalMart. In our dresses and everything. We walked around WalMart for a bit, then went to Denny's. After Denny's we drove around for a bit and then came back to the dorms. It was about 4 in the morning, and when we got back to the dorms, I mentioned I had never pulled an all-nighter before. So we decided we had to do it, for my sake. So, back to WalMart we went. We played hide-and-seek, which was not very fun because we were too tired. After a while, we went and got Hot Chocolate, and then my date and I wimped out at 7. The other couple went and watched the sunrise, but I decided that 7 was late enough in the morning to be considered an all-nighter. Which was probably a good thing, because I discovered that I have no filter when I am SUPER tired. I seriously just say every little thing that is on my mind. And I cannot stop it. I try, but it doesn't work. I'm thinking that is how it feels to be drunk. Except I at least remember being insane. :P
I set my alarms to wake me up so I would have time to get ready and be at work at 1:15. My alarms didn't go off, and I ended up waking up at about 1:00. I jumped out of bed, freaking out, and I checked my phone. I had a voice mail telling me that I did not have to come into work. I was so relieved! I ended up going to get some food and then went back to sleep at about 3:30. I woke up at 6:00 for dinner, and then went with some friends to this thing called waffelpalooza. (Which wasn't as exciting as it sounds.) Maybe it would have been more fun if I wasn't so tired. Well, we left that and just came back to the dorms. So, my super exciting all night party was followed up with a not-so-exciting day.  
In conclusion, if you have never pulled an all-nighter, do it. Just be prepared to not enjoy the following day very much. :)
Conclusion 2, do not pull an all nighter every night. That probably is not very healthy. Plus you will be tired and crazy. Which is not a good combination. Trust me.

This is not a normal picture. Unfortunately we did not take a normal picture. Because we are not normal people.
