Continuing from yesterday...
Friday, I woke up early and went to the fair. The band opened the day at 9:30 so we got there around 10 assuming band people could meet us soon afterwards...but no one knew ahead of time that they needed to bring a note if they were staying at the fair instead of riding the bus back to school. So they went back...the rest of us wandered around a lot while we waited for Corey and Liz to go to school, get Corey's car, and drive it back to the fair lol. We ran into the Broughton crowd :-) Then we saw Justin, a guy from school that sat with us at lunch last year-I never really knew him well but I guess some of the others sort of did-and we found out that he's been out of school the last 3 weeks because he just had open heart surgery o_O He's doing well though, and he's back in school now. We got interviewed by a random lady...and she asked us if we were going to see Clay...and then said something about how it would mostly be 42 year old moms so of course Dave and some of the others and I were like "FORTY TWO!!!" hahaha. Dena and I went on the swings but no one else wanted to. Then the others were going to go on a ride while Dena and I waited for Corey, Liz, and Steven, but the generator blew out lol so that didn't work. Then there was a big issue about where we were meeting people because we said "the biggest ferris wheel" but Steven came and said that, depending where you were standing, two of the four looked like they were the biggest. But he found us an eventually so did Corey and Liz. Then we got some lunch...oh my gosh...I dragged Liz (a fellow vegitarian) with me to a place that had hamburgers hoping I could get a bun with cheese on it or something similar...the guy that was working there must have never heard of not eating meat...he kept asking us questions..."How can you survive without eating meat?" "Uhh...we eat a lot of bread" *falls over* I didn't realize until as he handed it to me that my cheese on a bun was like the cheese they use for cheese fries lol, melted, so that was odd, but it worked. We met up with the others...ate...went on two more rides...Lol one was this thing with bees that went around in a circle and up and down...and we started out with me in the middle between Corey and Steven...and the guy that ran the ride came over and made me and Corey switch places...so Steven was on the outside, Corey in the middle, and me on the inside...then the ride started...haha I was glad he made us switch because once it got fast enough, we were all pushed toward the outside...meaning I squished Corey and both of us squished Steven lol, poor Steven! After that we saw some more people we knew-including Brittany! I turned around when we were in line for the ferris wheel and there she was! So I ran over, gave her a quick hug, and then had to run back in line because it was our turn lol. We saw Jo a little later too, which was cool and we all attacked her.
Then I went home and wrote my English paper and did some cleaning and such...and then Corey came over :-) We watched part of Nell, which was good yet creepy.
Ok stopping for the night to do some other things...bye!
