A day comprised of dancing, sketching and copious amounts of chocolate are rarely any less than awesome for me. Last friday: No exception. The day just started out feeling good. Granted, I was running a little late due to the coffee machine taking forever to get going, but this only seemed to get the adrenaline going for the day ahead. That, combined with the fact that it was the last school day of 2011 and I was wearing a dress for the occasion, had me pretty pumped.We had regular classes in the morning, but my teachers were more willing than usual to let me do what I wanted, so I spent the morning filling in what little space I had left in my sketchbook. Not wanting to blow my own horn (that’s a lie, I do), but my classmates were pretty impressed by my Totoro sketches!
At lunchtime a group of my friends had organized a Secret Santa gift-exchange; I gave a notebook and received a glow-in-the-dark keychain bear! Thanks to Bérénice, I will never again have to worry about losing my backpack in the dark! (Because naturally, this has been a pressing concern of mine...)
Mid-day there was this school-wide spectacle where various parts of the student body would preform a skit/song/choreographed dance involving pom-poms and vibrant green tights while the rest of us watched from our stadium seats in the rented gymnasium. It was entertaining, but the best was yet to be :)
Because the rest of the day was spent at my friend Marie’s, along with Cassandra and Alessandro. After about two minutes debate about what we should do, we had laptop and speakers set up in the living room and I proceeded to
dance wildly for the following two hours in the small space provided between the couch and the dining room table. There is quite an embarrassing video of this somewhere on Sandro’s phone, but he’s promised to never let it go public, so as to spare us all 2 minutes 47 seconds of humiliation. Nevertheless it was a really great way to kick off the Christmas break!!
