Continued...DQ, Tailgate, AND A Sprinkle of Doc Martens


hey all!
these are the last of my pictures i wish to share...
...for now, haha.


so these are pictures from the tailgate!
usually the school-ran tailgates SUCK.
like, "hey I'm the priciapal-wanna hot dog?"
then you dance
and sit
and call it a night if you're not going to the game...
*yawn*
but THIS year,
they had
caramel apples,
chips and pretzels,
lemonade shakeups,
hot dogs,
hamburgers,
DJing from our radio station,
competions like hoola hooping and dance marathon,
charity money-rasing,
face painting,
and dressing up in a super hero theme for the game later on that night...
ALL of that AND the game for a measley $5!!!
i was blown-a-way.
it was SO much more fun than past tailgates though.
ESPECIALLY with Tracy T. there! She MADE the tailgate!
along with awesome Lindsay G.
they're both awesome!
loved it,
and the game.
never again will i stand with the juniors section though.
sooo irritating!
it was all fun though!
now about DQ :
i'm working two days next week!
my first job-i'm pretty optimistic,
but i guess that'll pass.
i don't know though,
it IS moolah!
i was told not to be discouraged
if the work becomes monotonous.
cleaning bathrooms, dipping dilly bars, putting ice cream sandwitches together...
but i'm pumped!
whoo-hoo!
Doc Martens:
now i KNOW i could get them cheaper if they were used...
but I wanna breathe life into them.
a new pair just screaming to be broken in.
and have a story to tell,
just like a diary...
...but w/shoes.
that's what i think will count in their long lives with me.
once i get my hands ont them!
okay, i'm done w/personals for now
haha.

sooo,
i made these sets on polyvore...
i would SO wear this stuff!
...just a few outfits i'm thinking up
for when i can FINALLY get my hands on a pair of
dr. martens!
since i have a job now,
(don't worry Mike, i'll turn in my papers ASAP!)
sooner or later be able to pay for them.
and once i can, i'll start with a black pair
and build up from there
with a white pair and a red pair...
yes, these ACTUALLY came with pictures (the sets) from lookbook.nu,
but they didn't show up right.
ugh.
yes, YES muwahahahaha!!!
*ehem*
can't wait!
they were made to be broken in by me!

WHY Did I Do It??

....
why in the WORLD did i try on those Dr. Martens??
we went to the mall saturday
and the ankle ones only came in black.
BUT, they had a 25% discount
and they fit like Cinderella's glass slipper...
...cept a lot more edgier, haha!
i reeeeally liked them though.
a-lot.
and the guy talking to me about them was really nice.
like talking to an old friend, haha!
told us how after the first akward day of wearing them, they felt wonderful
(says a co-worker of his due to he himself not wanting a pair).
or how his mom wants him to get a pair
and thinks it's because she wants him to live her hair metal days through him!
and trying to sell them to me saying that no one will mess with me with those boots on!
i did feel bad giving them back to him.
if i do ever get to buy them,
i'd really like to buy them from him.
i don't know why...
but i'd just feel better if i did.
i'm usually shy,
but like i said, talking to him was like talking to an old friend.
very comforting.
and knowing i bought them from someone that got so personal with the customer,
will make them that much more special during their extra durable years of life on my feet.
...but hey,
i might be wrong, could've been a marketing trick, haha!
either way, i still really want those Martens.
i want them now more than ever.
shoot, i'm even willing to get the black pair for now,
and save up for other colors later!
i also saw those AMAZING
cloud converse!
they were SO cute in person!
made me into a wild child inside my heart.
they're $40.
and usually i think that's waaay too much for a pair of chucks.
but those are special
AND needed.
ugh, now my heart aches for them!

SOO Much to Do...

i'm really diggin' these white Dr. Martens! i want a pair. i know they come in oodles of colors, but i'm just really attached to the white pair (then maybe i'll move in on yellow or lavender, haha).

it's a long process for me though-the only store that sells them is Journeys, and they just come in black and a taaaaall hot pink pair. so i'd have to try them on, then find SOMEONE willing to buy them on the dr. martens website (since barely anyone in my family trusts buying products through the internet).

*whew*
so i'll figure something out i guess someday...meanwhile, i need to find a way to get my ankle cowboy boots out of layaway (i found them @ TJ Maxx!). they're really cute...but the countdown starts now! they'll be let go and i'll have a fine by the 7th of september, ugh. i'll find a way with that too somehow...
let's see...STILL need to add WAY more songs to my mp3 player...gotta study the new japanese vocab, organize my photos on my flickr account...oh my brain is rushing!
i should go then, despite my love of blogging! i will return soon hopefully! since tomorrow's friday and all. BUT, i do have some catching up to do with some art classes-long term projects. AND my tryout assignment for artistically talented...i have to find 5 pieces of mine too!
oh my! soooo much...i've gotta cram it all in and remember!
*sobs*
wish me luck!
