So if you know me, you know I call any outing an adventure. When I am bored and you ask me what we should do, I say lets go on an adventure. Adventure is a very vague term that I use to mean anything fun and exciting. This weekend I went on an adventure. But let me back up and go over this week.
It rained every single day and the sun did not shine. It actually felt like fall because it finally felt colder. It was nice and I enjoyed wearing jackets to class every day. I did not have a ton due in my classes this week, but I was assigned a lot of work that is due in the next month. I hate waiting until the last minute, so I have already started some of my projects. By Thursday, I wanted the weekend to be here already!!! I tried to accomplish a lot that night so I would have less to do over the weekend. When Friday came around I was ready....sort of. I felt very tired from the long week, so Emma and I decided to just have a movie night at her house. We made delicious hamburgers and baked french fries for dinner, went on a walk around Laie, and then over to her house to watch some girlie movies. I had never seen Never Been Kissed, so we watched that one first. After a quick intermission of some left over Halloween candy, we put on She's the Man. In my Shakespeare class, we have been studying Twelfth Night all week so I really wanted to watch this movie. Emma completed the night by giving Katie (her roomie) and I manicures. Friday was just the kind of night I needed.
Saturday was my adventure day. Emma, Mary, Sydney (one of my roomies), Sharee (another roomie) and I all went into town for an adventure. We stopped by Target because Mary needed to by a new suitcase. This honestly was one of the largest Targets I had ever seen. They had a two story parking garage that included a huge elevator so you and your cart could get up to the second level. I think we spent a good two hours here. My purchases at Target included this:
I bought the wreath, lights, and the ornaments all for $10!! I was a very happy girl. When I got home, I put it all together with the help of Mary and I love it!!! I feel very festive and holiday-ish now. (48 days till Christmas). Mary and I had also been looking for these cookies for a while now and finally found them at Target. We were so happy to find out that they were also on sale because Halloween had past and they wanted to get rid of them.
When we got home last night, we made a batch (we bought two boxes) and watched Baby Mama. After everyone had finished shopping at Target, we went out to eat. There are very few fast food places to eat over by us, so we definitely wanted to get something good while in town. We decided on Wendy's because it was less than a mile away and a frosty sounded delicious!!! After food, we went to Pearl Ridge Mall. This mall is literally right next to Aloha Stadium (University of Hawaii's stadium) and since there was a game yesterday, traffic was a mess. This mall is really cool because it has two different parts. It is like two malls very close by and you take a little shuttle from one side to the other. It was nice to feel like I was in a city again and not just out in the country. I am definitely a city girl at heart.
Our crazy adventure was complete with singing, laughing, and being our funny selves. I am so glad I have Rapunzel (my car) to get us around and take us on many adventures!!! It really is the best car ever!!!
