I think everyone should have a rich great-aunt...

Sooo... my 88 yearold great aunt has been at our house for a week now and she's leaving tomorrow morning. She is very interesting. ANd there are some definite perks to having her around. I've eaten out so much recently that I feel perpetually full. we didn't really eat out last week, but this week... yup. I've eaten my weight in food. Or at least pretty close. And good food too. (look at all the o's in that last sentence.)

Today was my last day of dance. It's over. It is finished. It's kind of sad, a little scary, and definitely hasn't sunk in yet. I've spent about five days a week with those girls for the last 4 years and I may never see them again. I don't love them all and I've been hurt by each one, but I do like them and I'll miss them. I got LOADS of flowers today! I mean like my arm wanted to fall off by the time I got to the car. The prettiest flowers I've ever had in my life. The Ruff boys danced in the perf. Christiaan is purty good. Better than most of those boys. I got tons of flowers, a little candy (but I took 2 actually), and the beginnings of a scrapbook and a card from the teachers. IT was like a mini dance christmas. It was my last performance in Meredith probably for the rest of my days. But, I invited the girls in my class to my graduation pary thing at my house so you should all come and then you can see them. I also gave them money begging letters for my Japan trip. I know at least claire's fam will give me some money. I just made the letters today, but if you read my blog and know who I am you're invited. Yes... you. Anyways, on my letters that I printed out I said Saturday June 5th, but it's really Sat June 4th. Hopefully no one pays attention to anything but the Saturday part.

Why in the world is half of Grace church's population born in May??? I mean really. It's a bit much. Oh well. Happy birthday to you all. Especially Jo b/c I havn't said happy b/day yet and hers was today? possibly? or close.
And Kristen, I tried on Anna's wig today. HA! I looked weird. Although Chris looked way stranger! hehe. he looked like a girl.

Saturday is the last youth group for me.... sniff sniff... so sad. It will never be the same after that. wow. All my buddys and my little buddies and the dancing in my little corner and the various diff leaders who I really got to know and like. It's a sentimental time of year. I don't care about school, I care about the ppl. But hey, I'm going to college and little old me, born and raised in Durham will be moving and going by herself where she knows no one and making all new friends and living without parents. Sounds like an adventure.

oh, and if you ever get the chance, get yourself a rich great-aunt...
