Awkward and Awesome Thursdays

So, about a year ago, my friend Layne told me to start doing Awkward and Awesome Thursdays. And I did them. For a week. And then I did a few sporadically throughout the past year. And now, I am going to do another.

For anyone that hasn't read any of my previous 'Thursday' posts, I basically post all the awkward and awesome things that have happened today/this week. OR you could go here. And yes, after looking through my old posts, I guess I only did one...awks. I thought I'd done multiple. Oh well. Maybe there are more, hidden like ninjas on my page. I bet that's what happened. Please wear a helmet to prevent a head slicing. I am not liable to any deaths because of this blog. Speaking of helmets, I'll get started on my 'Awkward's...

Awkward:
On the way home from Seminary, me and my sister and the freshman boy I drive, we all wear helmets. In the car. Cuz YOLO. ;) Just kidding, it's cuz we're cool. And we get so many funny looks, it's hilarious. And awkward.

There're these two kids who are walking to school as we drive home. And I think they like each other. And we've gotten into a habit of staring at them as we pass. They haven't been walking to school for the past 3 ish days...I don't know how to feel about this...we think some of this has to do with the helmet wearing as well....awkward...

I was at dinner with my sister at Pei Wei, and I was shoving a bunch of chopsticks into my purse(hey. It's free merchandise), and one of the workers glances over at me, and then does a double take.

Another time, as I was stuffing chopsticks in my bag, a guy I knew walked past and called my name and came over for a hug. I haven't seen him since this spring. It was weird. Mostly cuz I was shoving chopsticks in my purse.

I gave someone a ride home from mutual and they climbed into my car, and flipped POO cuz I have a bunch of heads in my back seat. Mannequin heads. Still, heads.

I had one such head pressed up against the rear window, that just so happens to look like Michael Jackson, in my opinion. And I was taking the trash out and I saw it as I was running back to my house. I screamed. I thought it was Michael Jackson, coming to rape me.

Someone asked me if I was expecting. MAJORLY AWKWARD. It was a fat day. Plus I was wearing my question mark shirt. It looks like I'm pregnant, but don't know what I'm having. As in gender, not species. I'm not having a parrot-human crossbreed. I'm not having anything, for that matter. I wonder if you can have a parrot-human....

I was taking pictures of my sister on the sidewalk yesterday. It is common for photographers to have awkward poses while taking pictures, just to get the right angle. I had my butt sticking out as I was taking pictures. Aaand a car full of guys drove past. Three times. I didn't realize til my sister got freaked out cuz they kept passing. We relocated. I don't like guys staring at mah butt.

I was talking to the lovely Anela in class today. Or, I said "hello" (in a much more creative way) and immediately got a message from one of the class mods "keep the chat on topic".  We then had a text conversation. It has been decided that this was his first class and he was power hungry.

My mom came in the house after using my car and asked, "Why are there heads in your car?"

I found out that SWAG stands for "Secretly We Are Gay". Yuppp...

I was babysitting last night, and I fell asleep. Which WOULD be fine. BUT she forgot her keys. So, she was ringing the doorbell, trying to wake me up. She had to call me.

I slept through my alarm, and Nicholas(The freshman I drive to seminary) was ringing my doorbell and knocking for forever til I woke up. His face when I answered the door was priceless. I looked great. Bedhead and all.


Awesome:

I went out to dinner tonight. I like food. Therefore, this is awesome.

Someone told me they wanted my bangs. Furthermore, they wanted to pull them off my head. It made me feel special. ;) (I give you permission to do one of those awkward cough laughs with a weird face. It's one of those moments. I understand.)

I had a hilariously funny conversation with my friend, who happens to be a boy, about what kissing someone with a beard feels like. His opinion about mustaches was insightful. And he is straight, yes.

I passed an assessment in Science with 21 out of 28! Woot....

I wore tie dyed pants today. That's just awesome.

I was told that I'm a cute bum.

I made cupcakes. And they taste....pretty okay. Sorta. I think I'll make other people eat them! Yay for sharing...

I shot a bunch of people. In a non-lazer lazer tag thing. It was thebomb.com. <<That's a link. I think. Don't click it...mink. (THAT ALL RHYMED :D)

My sister came home for the weekend. Stoked.

The teachers(like 14-15 year old boys) in my ward are no longer afraid of me. It's pretty cool.

When telling people at my church about wearing helmets in our car, one of the girls asked, "Oh, so do you wear them cuz your seatbelts are broken?" Made. My. Day. Cuz if my seatbelts were broken, I'd just wear a helmet. Same thing. ;)



Maybe I'll stay on top of things and post an awkward/awesome post next Thursday. Don't count on it tho. :) Good night, random citizens.
