Spirit week and Homecoming

Finally back on track here! Garry just fixed the network, hehe and you know me; I ran straight to the computer - addicted as I am. Well, there's been so much fun going on so I'm just gonna start of and show pictures and write a long with it.

LANCERS PARADE:

Students from my school who wants to be in the army, 50-50 boys and girls.

Shawnee Mission East was celebrating our 50 anniversary! So we had a big parade close by our school. Every grade had made their own float and they dressed up as decades from the 50s, 60s, 70s etc. There was a float party at thursday, but a girl I know surely had to study for a big spanish test, heh - geek as I am. This was a nice ending of our spirit week, we dressed up differently every day (sports theme, colors day, the 80s, color clash, Lancers clothing). It was music all over school in between classes from decades in the past, so fun!

LABSTER SELLING FOR VOLUNTERS:

YES IT'S ALIVE!! hahah, I was so freakin' proud! Every year the exchange students help Shawnee Mission East to sell labsters for people so we can raise money for our school. So saturday morning I woke up 7.30 am. to sell those jukky creatures! I carried at least 5 of them (there was about 50 labsters there, and we sold all of them, I know it sounds weird, haha) It was a hilarious moment, I mean - I've only seen living labster at Ica or Meny in Norway in a fish tank! haha

Dale holding the labster way too close, it's discusting haha

HOMECOMING:

- Before the dance

Shelbi and I had so much fun dressing up, I can't remember the last time I was so excited about a event.

My hair after being styled at the hair saloon. I've always done my hair self, so it was fun to not do it this time!

-The dance

Me and Drew at the dance! He was such a fun date to have. I've never met a guy who puls my chair out when I want to sit or opens the car door for me. I definitely was treated like a princess for a day.

Homecoming was more fun than I thought it would be! Next time it's mine turn to ask a guy for a school dance here, that's gonna be interesting haha. Let me know if you have a cute way for me to ask!

okidokismoki, I'm going to take a shower and then go to bed!
Miss you all, hugs and kisses,
