schoolMy Da took me to Woodfield mall in Schaumburg (3rd largest mall in the USA, I think) today. The only store I went to was Torrid and I've deemed it my favorite now. They have cool clothes for big girls and I love that. I mean, I'm not massive or anything cause I can still shop at places like Rue21 and all but it's nice to go to a store devoted entirely to plus-sized young women (Layne Bryant doesn't count because they make clothes for kangaroos, if you get my drift). Anyway, I got two pairs of jeans, a pretty blue sweater, a cool top, a silver studded holder for my iPod and a black wallet with stars on it for going out.
I'm glad I bought 'going out' clothes before I went to Memphis last month so I didn't have to buy them now 'cause I spent nearly $200 on just those things. Plus I still need boots, a coat and maybe one more sweater. If possible.
Oh! And I went to Bed, Bath & Beyond and Target yesterday. At BBB, I got a nice blanket, little towels, a bathrobe, shower sandals, and some other stuff I can't remember. At Target I got a bunch of girl stuff 'cause it costs money to look as pretty as I do (haha).
Tomorrow I have my hair appointment where I'll be going from blonde to brunette and cutting about two inches off my already short hair. Luckily, I got an appointment with Lori, who is my favorite stylist.
Thursday is cleaning and packing day so that I'm ready to go on Friday (but I have a nighttime flight anyway so I'm not going to pack till Friday, hehehe). I haven't cleaned my bedroom since I left for school last year. So, you can imagine the mess it's in. Plus my bathroom hasn't been cleaned since my sister left for school because I got lazy and all my crap is all over our two sinks. One sink is now for morning and bed-time preparation and the other is for going out. They both serve a purpose and I'm going to feel empty when I have only one sink again.
What else... hm... I think that's all for today. I may make one last update before England (probably the day I leave).
