Hi there. How's it going? I hope your day is going great. Ok, on to my day!
So I woke up after having this weird dream about a spider, and forced myself to get up. It was so hard. We got here a few minutes late, but it was ok. After getting all the certificates signed, we went into the auditorium. We waited and saw some videos. It was cool.
After that, we took our group to the CS workshop, and it was interesting to see how competitive they were. I worked quite a bit on my story. It's not on it's seventh chapter, and I'm excited to see where it's going. I know the basic plot line, but it just feels like it's dragging to me. Maybe someday I'll post a link to my story. If enough people ask for it. Anyways.
So lunch came on time, and it was delicious. I ate so much! I was stuffed. And the shirt I'm wearing definitely didn't help. It's tighter than most shirts I wear, and didn't allow for my stomach to expand. After lunch, we went to go get frozen yogurt. Susi and I saw Linday there. I miss her. She has known Ari and I since the sixth grade. My friends Kristen reminds me of her. Anywho
Instead of doing the outside activity, Ari and I stayed in to rearrange the room as well as do dishes. We didn't finish until around 2:15, and there was a TON of food. We didn't know what to do with it, so I asked SP, who asked Becca. Becca said to go around and ask if people wanted to eat the food, and then call my mom if there was a lot left over. I called my brother and we gave him two full plates of food. It was pretty amazing. Mom ended up getting some more rice and stuff when they came to pick it up. She was happy.
We missed most of the first workshop, but were good for the NXT one. Jen had us go get a few more bins for the girls who were doing the alligator. It was cool. I tried working on my story some more, but I have no idea to get it to go where I want it to go. Oh well.
I guess now I should do the prompt. If I could create a holiday, I would definitely create a National Twin Day. I know there is a Twin Festival in Ohio, but this would allow for everyone to celebrate their Twin-ness. Being a twin is very integral to my being. Life would be so much harder for me if I hadn't been born a twin. This day would allow me to fully embrace being a twin. It's still a little uncomfortable for me to be physically affectionate with Ari. If Twin Day had existed in my elementary days, I may have never let that stupid comment get to me. Anyways.
Twins are not that rare anymore, but just enough for them to warrant some special attention. I know everyone want to know about twins, based on the questions I get all the time. I think it would give twins a reason to stay close. Some aren't, and that saddens me. Twins need to stick together. We were born together, for Pete's sake.(Sidenote: Did you know that the saying, "For Pete's sake" came from a letter Michelangelo wrote to whoever was funding the St. Peter's Basilica, asking for more money? He signed it, "For St. Peter's sake." Sorry. Just thought it was interesting.)
I guess that's all for now. So long!!
