This Story-ific Wrap

Hey there,

As of late I've had no amazing inspiration of any sort. I mean, I'm always thinking, and life is always happening so you'd think there'd be some "Eureka!" by now. But there hasn't been. As Twenty One Pilots said in their song Migraine, "I do not have writer's block, my writer just hates the clock." Actually, I think just about everything about me hates the clock, not just my writer. I am a world class procrastinator. All of those people out there that claim to be the kings and queens of procrastination? Haha, yea, nope. Seriously, if there's anything I'm great at, this is it. There really need to be Procrastination Anonymous meetings for me and my fellow putter-offers.

Enough of my current procrastination though, what I decided to do was make little mini-stories about little events and thoughts that have happened in the past few days. It seems like a good idea. So here goes:

Over the weekend, I finally got to really spend time with my boyfriend. He's been gone a lot due to some RAWR!!! circumstances. It was really fun and relaxing to be with him. I find I get some sort of rejuvenation from being around people I love. I'm a weird kind of extrovert. I don't want small talk, and I don't crave people in general. I crave deep conversations and experiences with deep people that I feel deep connection with. Which is exactly what I get when I'm with my partner.

I went out thrift shopping with my best friend Bri, my aunt Lily, and her boyfriend Chuck. We aquired so many gems. Soft gems, made out of soft fabrics that caressed our skin in such a way that we knew if all else failed, these fabric gems would be there for us. Popping tags really is the best thing, you can get ten to twenty different articles of clothing for the price of one dress from Hot Topic. It's hella rad.

Yesterday, I was with my mom, Bri, and my little brother baybay. For some wild, unknown reason that only a  year old could comprehend, baybay decided that the best course of action was to initiate butt cheer! What's butt cheer, you might ask? It is the spreading of happiness that happens when a person's butt cheeks contact another's skin and begin to sway back and forth in a twerking motion. This is the way to joy. This is the true way spread Christmas cheer. Baybay starts shaking his behind on everyone, and my mom was just absolutely dying of laughter. The best thing to do was, obviously, to capture the moment forever with a video camera. As she presses record she tells baybay to go to butt happiness on Bri. I hear her yell "Oh no!", followed by baybay's enthusiastic "Oh yes!!!" These were fun times.

Today in my AP Lang class I was so excited! We were gonna do this activity called "SOL Smackdown", which sounds terrible but is actually just mini-Lincoln-Douglas style debates. We had to pick a partner, but the only people I knew partnered with each other and then I had no idea who the rest of the class was. So I ended up with the teacher! Bonus points! I mean, when it comes to picking a good debate partner, who better to have but the teacher on your side? I was so pumped for all of the intelligent, well-educated, respectful arguing that was about to go down. I listened to all of these groups that got to go before me, woefully unprepared to be busting out sick rebuttals. And there I was, dying to say all of these THINGS but it wasn't my turn. The bell rang and I forever lost the opportunity. Sad. Face. :( (I got to go first next class though, so it was all good)

So that's it for this. I'm sure there's more events I could add now, since I wrote this as a draft a few days ago and am just not coming back to it, but it's a wrap! A hopefully tasteful wrap with 4 different story-ific ingredients.
