Best. Half. Day. Ever.

So since homecoming's tomorrow- which we're going to lose because we WON our last game- we have spirit week at our school. Today we had something called senior for hire where anyone can buy a senior for $10 and all the money goes to the senior's prom. Once you buy your senior you can dress them up however you want! Seriously. I legit saw a guy in leather leggings, a black haired wig, a hot pink bra, and cropped black jacket. People were dressed as Lady Gaga, Nikki Minaj, Tinker Bell, Fairies, LMFAO, 3 little pigs and the big bad, Santa and his elves, Sundroplets, and even a "Mean Girls" quote! I was in a stairwell with the LMFAO Beat Bot, a girl dressed as "Black Swan", and a guy dressed as Tinker Bell... with "Party Rock Anthem" playing.
I was in the band room taking pictures with band kids dressed up and just everyone. Here are some of the pictures we took:

(Bianca, my color guard captain as a unicorn, me, and Sydney)

(Me, Dominick as Peach, and Amy as Mario)

(Me with some people dressed as "Blue's Clues")

(It's blurry, but it's me and Sydney with a girl dressed as Avatar)

(Me with a girl dressed as Ash Ketchum.)

(Sydney with THE DANCING LOBSTERS!!!!)

(Mexican "men", LMFAO, and Beat Bot.)

(My color guard captain, my drum major, and my drum major's boyfriend.)

That's all for now! Till then,

Bless ya! Love ya!

If it was a perfect day...?

Today I remembered an old writing prompt they told us to do in second grade. I didn't think much of it until watching an hour and a half of the MTV show "Awkward." The prompt was a simple: If you were to have a perfect day, how would it go? Since nothing else has really happened with my day today, why not rewrite it?
-----------------

My bed suddenly bounces making the head board smack against my light purple wall. Although the sun was hardly up I could make- out the 2 figures of my best friends Emily and Sydney. Emily's brunette curls looked thicker and bouncier than usual and Sydney's hair was really long again and flat ironed. "Wake up sleeping beauty!" Emily yells to wake me up.
Sydney turns on my light and I rub my eyes. As I blink back into focus I realize I'm not baby- of- the- school- 13- year- old-Kailyn Wolffe. I'm 16- year- old- America's- Next- Top- Model Kailyn standing 5'10" and having super light blond hair reaching my waist. I look up at Emily and Sydney. Both of them were taller and older looking. Emily had on a white lace top and army green short shorts and Sydney had on a black tank top that had stripes of different colored sequins going across it with a pair of white short shorts. I look at my clock. I glower at the 2 of them.
"Guys, it's 5 AM. Please give me a good reason why you're here." I sigh walking over to my mirror. My skin was a lot tanner and my nose was thinner and more ski slope- like.
"Well," Sydney drags out. "Tonight is the Lily Brook Ball and you don't have a dress yet and we know you don't want to look like the idiot that wore jeans and a t- shirt in front of him, so Em and I figured what better place for you to get a dress than New York City?"
I smile widely. My mind clears up. The Lily Brook Ball was a dance that only the best of the best got to go to and he was the cutest boy I had ever seen that understood me and was funny and was just perfect. Emily rests her arm on my shoulder. "Plus, I happen to have tickets to the best show on Broadway."
I jump up and down. New York City, Wicked, Lily Brook Ball, and seeing the guy of the dreams all in one day? How much better could it get? I quickly get changed into a royal blue V- neck top and cuffed short shorts. I leave my hair down and we're out the door by 5:30 AM.
After a car ride filled with giggles and singing show tunes we reach New York City by 7:00 AM. We go into a little breakfast place in Manhattan where we get the world's best bagels for breakfast. Just as we're about to pay the bill the waiter stops us.
"No, no," He explains shaking his head. "Those nice boys over there paid for you. They said, 'Let us pay for those pretty ladies' meals.'"
Just as we turn our heads we realize the "boys" that paid for our meals were Cory Monteith and Kevin McHale. We jump up and down excitedly as we get their autographs and take pictures. By 8:30 we were going down Broadway to go inside to see "Wicked". Sadly, when we reach the door we find out our tickets were double sold. As we turn around and start to leave the theater depressed, a spark of luck occurs.
"Wait! Wait!" The ticket man call chasing after us. "Although your seats are taken, we do have some extra seats in the front row. If you don't mind it's in front of the orchestra and you'll be sitting next to Emma Watson, Rupert Grint, and Daniel Radcliff so there will security guards around you."
Sydney links arms with Emily and I. "That will be perfectly fine."
We take our seats in wide smiles. "Wicked" was glamorous because- due to a stomach flu and strep throat that went around- the original cast of "Wicked" had to fill in for them. After we left the show we went to a fancy French restaurant. I look around the restaurant then laugh. "I think is the first time so far today we haven't run into a celebrity."
I was a little disappointed when we were paying for our bill I felt a tap on my shoulder. I look up to see a bleached blond, fair woman wearing a dress that could probably fit 8 people under it and heels taller than a guinea pig on it's hind legs. I stare at her blankly for a few seconds before I realize I'm standing face to face with the Lady Gaga. Sydney and Emily start silently cheering with each other. I was so star struck I couldn't even stutter words.
"Hey little monster, I'm lovin' the shoes," She comments adjusting her outlandish head piece. I look down then realize I'm wearing my black sneakers that I had written "Property of Gaga" in.
"I- I- I like your music." I stutter out. Everyone breaks out in hysterics. Gaga giggled.
"Stay beautiful, sweetie," She says patting me on the shoulder.
I smile and turn back to the group. We all cheer silently. Then it was time for dress shopping. After 4 hours and countless boutiques, stores, and even a mini mart we finally found the perfect dress. We got home at around 5 and I quickly got my hair done then did my make- up myself. Everything was perfect and seemed so right...

* * *

I walked down the long staircase of the Lily Brook Ballroom. Time seemed to stop for a second as I walked down the stairs in my royal blue gown that was tight fitting until it reached mid- shin where it flared out. The thick shoulder straps were slid off my shoulders. My hair was simple pulled back at the crown and everything that was tied back was curled. My eyes had wings painted on with a metallic light blue eye shadow.

Josh Groban music sung in my ears. He waited at the bottom of the stairs smiling and waiting for me. Sydney and Emily stood behind him giddy for me. He smiled even wider when I stood next to him. Even in my 2 inch Cinderella styled heels he was still taller than me. I bat my eyelashes at him and slyly smile back at him.

"Hey, beautiful," He finally blurts out.

"Hey," I peep with a giggle.

"May I have this dance?" He asks sticking his hand out.

I blush. "I gladly will."

As I went out there, in the center of the dance floor nothing felt important any more. The fact that I saw all the celebrities I love so much didn't mean a thing. The fact that I had Dylan and all his friends drooling over me on the sidelines was just as important as the last time I bought tomatoes. The fact that I had Maria envious of me seemed like it had been done so many times before. That moment of me feeling like a princess with him just made everything feel perfect.

Bless you. Love you.

Fashion Show Time!

No, this isn't another fashion post, but my friends and I decided to take model pictures today by going all out. We did full on MAC make- up, pretty dresses, and hair styling. These are the first pictures of me I'm posting from the front. These were taken of me, *Bianca, and Sydney. For Sydney and Bianca: If you want me to post more pictures of us or you guys message me via Facebook! My face looks kind of orange, because it's Bianca's make- up and she's obviously a lot tanner than me. So here are the pictures:

(Me doing an over the shoulder. Photo creds to Sydney and Bianca for the pose.)

(Me doing some-what Audrey Hepburn pose. Photo creds to Sydney)

 

(Me just being a sweetie! Photo creds to Sydney.)

(Bianca and I. My eyes are closed intentionally. Photo creds to Sydney.)

(Sydney and me being sympathetic. Photo creds to Bianca.)

There are many more pictures, but I will need to get permission from Sydney and Bianca to show them. Post your opinions in the comments my lovelies! Till then,

Bless ya! Love ya!

*All the names marked with a "*" are NOT real. I made them up myself.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away...

* Welcome to the third person perspective of the end of my day. *

Kailyn laughs finishing up her conversation about Victoria's Secret's perfumes/body sprays with Katy and practically runs into the locker room. She sighs with relief that the bell still hasn't rung yet. Unfortunately as soon as she gets her top on, the bell rings which means she has about a minute to finish changing. After a super quick change and making it outside with 30 seconds to spare. For whatever reason Kailyn's gym class went outside and walked around the school.
Kailyn and Sydney came up with their Halloween costumes and what they were going to do for Halloween. Kailyn quickly realized that today was going to be a very hot considering she was gently sweating in short shorts and a t- shirt. After the really random walk around the school, Kailyn and her class went inside to the 3rd gym. Yes, the school has 3 gyms, a work out room, 2 football fields, a beach volleyball field, 2 baseball fields, a soccer field, a field hockey... field, and a track. When they got into the un- air conditioned gym, everyone started sweating like crazy to, as Mrs. Gym-Teacher quotes, "insane workouts".
By the end of the gym class, Kailyn smelled, her clothes smelled, everything/everyone smelled. Everyone was also drenched in sweat. As Kailyn walked through the double doors back into the main gym dosed off in space, she turned to see *Dylan pulling off his shirt. Even though he was wearing a guy tank top (Guessing they're called that...) it was a sheer white one, so she could see his toned soccer player abs. She made a face similar to this one when she saw those delicious Italian washboards:

Luckily no one was watching when she did that. Unfortunately when she got back to Spanish class, that she has with Dylan and Maria, looking really awful. So when Kailyn ran into her sauna- like Spanish room, Dylan looked perfect by the only fan in the classroom with his luscious brunette hair blowing in the gentle breeze and Maria- who Kailyn thinks has a thing for Dylan- was sitting there perfectly like:

(Her looks almost saying, "Come in darling! Dylan's watching!")

And Kailyn ran in sweating like a pig, pretty sure her bra was sticking out, hair destroyed, make- up smeared, and faking a smile. In short it looked like this.

(Thinking: "Haha! Haha! I'm crying inside...")

Everyone just kind- of awkwardly stared as Kailyn awkwardly took her seat. Kailyn tried not to make much eye contact with people in her class. Luckily, during Kailyn's FCCLA meeting she made more friends. After her dance class one girl even complimented her, so Kailyn's day went pretty well after Spanish class. In fact, in her FCCLA meeting they were playing an ice breaker game where you had to ask questions in a circle and if you answered the question, repeated the question, or hesitated you were out. So, Kailyn had a guy and 2 girls who she was some- what friendly with. One of them as a joke asked the guy, "Did you have your period?" and he laughed so hard he got out. Then later this one girl as a joke was going to ask "Do you have a tampon?", but the girl before her asked if she liked pizza. So when she was about to ask her question it came out as, "Do you like tampons?" Hysterical. Well that's all for now. Till then,

Bless ya! Love ya!

P.S. RIP Jamey Rodemeyer. Those people should have never bullied you to the point to make that awful decision. You were born that way little monster. Mama Monster is praising you now and helping your cause. Hopefully it will go far.

Day 9- Every dayum shufflin.

Sorry I couldn't post about day 9 yesterday. I went from home, to school, to the orthodontist, to the football game, to my bed. Now my legs and mouth hurt from walking around and making out with all the football players at the game too much... lol jk I only wish. I walked around and talked a lot at the football game, but my mouth only hurts from getting my braces tightened. Agenda for this post will be: Quick summary of school, talking about the football game, and what I've done so far today... Let's get started!
School was okay. We had a class election first period, so I didn't get to go to fashion design. :( At least my extremely hug-a-ble friend *Mike won the election! I was talking to my friend *Destiny in gym class yesterday when *Dylan and one of his friends run over. Of course right as I'm about to open my mouth to talk to him, what do the gym teachers do? They blow the whistle and yell, "Everyone get into your squads!" *Heart plummets* There's always Monday? I have to "read" chapters 2 and 3 of To Kill a Mockingbird this weekend. By that I mean I'll just skim through it and once I remember what happened in those chapters I'll hang out with someone.
The football game was pretty good, actually. We still lost- 32 to 22 or something like that- but I talked to this senior named James who told me last year out of our first five games our point average per game was 3 points. As usual, I didn't actually pay attention to the game. I met and talked to a ton of people who I'll- most likely- never meet again. Here's the #1 conversation starter: Jenna Marbles. Not Justin Bieber, not Lady Gaga's newest outfit, Jenna Marbles. Don't know who she is? She's a Youtube star on the rise. Guys watch her because she's hot. Girls watch her because she's hysterical. Jenna's most famous for her video where she makes "the face" that you can use to get people to stop talking to you with. It goes something like this:

Sexy right? If you start talking about her- or even quoting her for that matter- people will laugh and probably join in! I met a ton of people that way. Why am I bringing this up also? So Jenna has one video where she makes fun of Sarah Palin and takes her top off. I was doing a "Sexy Sarah" impression where I stuck my chest forward and squished my boobs together when who walks by, but 3 of the freshman football players I've know since 4th grade. One of the guys went bug- eyed when they saw me since 1) I'm sexy. 2) He had never seen me acting like that. The guys of course walked down to the end of the stands then walked back, so I jokingly did my impression again for them to make them smile. The band had a good performance, but *Bianca, Sydney, and I had to leave early since I had a killer head ache.

Sydney and I had a sleepover last night and went to the mall this morning. Once she left I changed into sweatpants and an oversized T- shirt. I'm hopefully seeing Emily and Sydney tomorrow. Well, I need to go make dinner. Till then,

Bless ya! Love ya!

World's Greatest Football Team!

Yesterday I said I would post something about the game, but I didn't get home till like 10:30 and I was wiped out from waking up early all week. The football game started out well with us getting a touchdown (6 points) in the first quarter, but after we missed the field goal (1 point) it went down hill from there. After the team missed the field goal, Sydney, *Bianca, and I went on an "adventure"- which was just really us walking around the field.
I saw *Katy and *Brynn at the game. Katy waved to me, but Camille didn't seem to notice me. Sydney introduced me to these 2 guys *Matt and *Tom. They were a year younger than us, but they were funny and nice. I discovered that Matt knows my step- brother *Landon- my step- brother and I don't have the same last name. I don't if he was surprised in a good or a bad way that he was my step- brother. I'm also not sure how Matt knew Landon considering they go to different schools and other minor details. I don't really care though.
The marching band performed a half time show of If I Were a Rich Man, Match Maker, Match Maker, Sunrise Sunset, and The Bottle Dance all from Fiddler on the Roof. If you haven't seen Fiddler on the Roof and you like Broadway classics, I highly recommend seeing the movie. You have to see the one from the 80's that's 3 hours long though. I know it's long, but it's totally worth it! Here's my favorite scene:

Can you even imagine how much leg strength and practice that must take? I just started doing jazz dancing again and I can hardly get my turn perfected! The performance was really good, but they couldn't do their actual march because with all the rain they haven't gotten time to practice. I tried to get my friend to laugh the whole time. I got her to smirk by doing some messed up Jenna Marbles face- look up "How to Avoid People You Don't Want to Talk to" on Youtube if you don't know what I'm talking about.
It was all really fun. I got to talk to some of my- hopefully- co- actors in the school play. My friend *George who is 2 years older than me talked about Nathan Lane with me. We're both big fans of Mr. Lane. In the end my school lost 6 to 31. We're probably the worst team in the state. A few years ago our varsity team had to verse freshman to win homecoming! True story. Well, that's all for today. I have to go to a party soon, so that's all for now!

Bless ya! Love ya!

Day 2 in a Very Hot Room

It was my second day of high school today and I've just realized a big problem. None of my classrooms have air conditioning! You may be saying "What's so bad about that?" Well where I live we've been having bipolar weather; in the morning it's been 52 degrees outside and by the afternoon it reaches 80 degrees in some classrooms. It's not fun to be in 80 degree weather in skinny jeans.
Enough with my complaining, let's move on with stories of the day. For starters I made it to my bus on time- *silent cheers*- and since my mom wasn't home to take a "first day of high school" picture of me, I got one today. What I find very funny is my history teacher (who for your sake as the reader I'm just going to call all the teachers Ms. Class they teach [i.e. Ms. Spanish I]) accidentally curses in class which is kind of funny considering she gasps and covers her mouth.
In my gym class I have 7 of my closest friends in it. Even though we see each other a lot, we usually greet each other like this:


And I'm not exaggerating. I don't know about you, but when I walk into a room talking and laughing with a big group of people I always feel a lot cooler for whatever reason. When I walked into the other gym- the teachers were going to tell the freshman and sophomore girls about lockers- I felt like I was walking in with my friends Sydney, *Dana, and *Lexi looking like this:


When we probably looked like this:



That's what friends are for I guess. Gym class was pretty boring all and all, but I got to giggle with my friends! I have to finally start my homework. (I know! Second day and homework?!?! *sigh...*)
