Awkward Greetings and Parenting (#10)

     I know what it is like to meet new people; quiet greetings and awkward staring...but who knew four of the best people in my life can do it WORSE!?! My mom and dad have been wanting to meet the friends that I have been hanging out with often after school lately. They suggest laser tag games at Laser Quest. I got Alex, my cousin, Reagan, Andrew, and Arben to come along. Nothing what I expected happened. Just silence, no interaction whatsoever! They are all social, but they were just so awkward, I feel like I should be arrested.
     During the actual game, I found out that going to Laser Quest was Andrew, Reagan, and Arben's first visit, nor have they ever heard of that place! However, Reagan and Arben understood the game, but Andrew...if this was a real battle, he would die at the start. Anytime Andrew died, he would just stand there while recharging. He barely shot his gun or ran away, and he thought this would be like paintball. We had to drag him around to move. He ended up getting 31st place with -31 points. In the end, I got FIRST PLACE, and despite the awkwardness, they all had fun.
     I now know the troubles of what it is like to be a parent, except this happens at school. Who is the cause of that? REAGAN! He begs me too much to do a favor for him that I can't even try to eat during brunch or lunch! I can't help it, I just have a strong soft side that always makes me say yes! Andrew, if you are reading this, your advice is not a quarter way helping.
     Also, try a DEEP FRIED SNICKERS OR DEEP FRIED TWINKIES if any of you ever get the chance!

Food Fight, Sunday Night, Wigs, Gone Missing, and Police (#9)

     Thanksgiving: a time when family gets to fight over who gets to have the bigger piece of the turkey...well my family wasn't fighting over the turkey. My sister and her husband had made a casserole and pie from scratch, which is like their own recipe, and they brought it to my uncle's house for the potluck. Since it was from scratch and its a personal recipe, a lot of people wanted to try it. When the night ended, there were leftovers, and people were debating who gets the leftovers. Apparently, my uncle got the leftovers, but the next morning somebody had already ate it. They kept asking who took the leftovers and asking my sister and her husband the recipe.
     Sunday Night: THE WALKING DEAD NIGHT!!! As usual, at 9 PM, I tune into my favorite show, The Walking Dead. I am always hoping for the episode to be epic and intense. However, there was worse. After that one scene, I broke down on the couch...UGH! I was crying a river. I have not cried so hard from an episode of The Walking Dead in a while.
     Then comes my dear friend, Andrew. In case you forgot who Andrew is...he was the one that nearly got ran over by a car while he fell asleep on the road (totally smart). I made Andrew wear an afro wig and fake eyeglasses for a day and a half, and made him into a person named, Joseph Finnes. I wore the wig earlier in the day, and people thought I was a different person. Really? I am wearing a cape and a poncho, but the wig says I look like a different person? The wig brought up some pretty positive comments, even though some of them might be sarcastic. Now, why did I make Andrew wear a wig? Well, he owes me for nearly calling the police on me; Andrew, Reagan, Ben, Arben, Thomas, and I were playing hide-and-seek, and I was stuck with Ben during one round. My dad suddenly comes to pick me up, and I had to leave because I was in a rush for a swim class. I tried looking for everyone else, but I couldn't find them, so I asked Ben to notify the others. An hour passed and everyone is still looking for me. Obviously, Ben didn't tell anybody! Everybody is spamming me with calls and text messages asking me where I am. I couldn't reply back because I was in swim class. ANDREW NEARLY CALLED THE POLICE UNTIL ANY OF THEM REALIZED MY BACKPACK WAS NOT AT REAGAN'S DOOR! COME ON! I USUALLY LEAVE MY BACKPACK AT THE DOOR AND IT TOOK YOU AN HOUR TO NOTICE! Andrew asks Liam where I would be at the time, and thank goodness Liam knows my schedule, which is kind of creepy and regretful...I didn't call any of them back until the next day because NOBODY WOULD ANSWER THEIR PHONES!!!
