Bring On The Rain

Lately, all I've wanted is sunshine.
Spring Break of '08!! (still not rhyming..)

But still... SPRING BREAK. A time for all us kids to go off and see who can come back with the best tan. A time for us to come back and debate over who had the most fun. A week off of school, to do what, be stuck in the house the same way I would be stuck in the school house all day? I should have sun!

But all I've gotten is rain or clouds. But I guess beggars can't be choosers.
And realizing this...
I went out and bought me the cutest rain gear!

So Bring on the rain.



Dad's prepared too. Just not as cute.

Spring Break of '08

First let me tell you, Spring Break of '08 does NOT rhyme. Just wanted to let you know. If I can't get away with rhyming "sence" & "parents" in Mrs. Lambert's English class, no one is getting away with rhyming "break" & "eight."

I'm a stickler for fairness.


Anywhos..
This Spring Break, I only really get 2 days off, because we have a softball game Friday, resulting in Wednesday & Thursday practices.
...Which completely stinks.
But today I went to the beach with some of my friends, & it was really fun! So I guess that can make up for the three days of nothingness I'll have to endure.

But what had happened was...
My friend wrote down all the directions to Edisto Beach, and she took a test drive with her mom. We had 3 vehicles loaded with people following us (ofcourse 1 set of adults. Heaven knows we need adults..) Then we got there & it was freezing cold, so we all just walked down the beach taking pictures & having a shark-tooth-finding competition. Then we all walked to the Pig across the street for no apparent reason. The Pig is just the place to hang out. In Wagener, we hang out at the Pig. In Edisto, we hang out at the Pig.
It's happenin'.
So then we all went shopping in the gift shops and stuff.. I don't think anybody even bought anything. Then we rode in Corey's low-rider for a lil bit, just to feel all the bumps on the rode. Then we went back to the cars and ate, & played frisbie/volleyball. Then went back to the beach & played volleyball & layed on a blanket. Then all the girls went out & swam because we dared each other to. It was actually very fun. & tiring. & freezing.

There was no sun out, but I managed to get burnt.

And so goes the exciting life of Marj.
