Back to School

        Don't you just love the back to school season? Well, I don't love it (Student is typing this). There are so many things I dislike about it; waking up early, shopping in the crowded back-to-school areas (I don't particularly like shopping), Having to spend seven hours in school, and the dreaded homework.... I do like a few things though. I get to see my friends and there are a lot of really cool sales around school time (Especially on Post-Its!) (BTW, I love Post-Its). If you cannot tell, school is not my favorite place to go. I have a major love/hate relationship with it. I will love it until I get there, and then hate it by the middle of the day. As an example of this, right now I am actually excited for school to start (as excited as I can get over school), but by next week I will probably start wishing for summer break. I guess there are several people who are like that, but I wish I just hated or liked it year around. It would be a lot easier to tell people... :)
        Since this post is all about school, I want to talk to about my school supplies shopping experience. So, the salvation army gives out these backpacks filled with school supplies for those who can't afford them or just need help with it. We went to go get ours, but there was a huge line. So, naturally, I decided to stay out in the car (Luckily I brought my drawing supplies). I was quietly sitting there drawing, and then I would get bored. Then I would go back to drawing and get bored. So then I starting drawing my own characters (I normally copy off of references for practice). My mom and sister were in line for an hour, which means I was sitting in the car for an hour with no other source of entertainment! It is hard for me to entertain myself. (I was actually a little bit proud of myself for lasting so long with just paper, references, and drawing supplies... Since we are talking about me, this is a great accomplishment.) Then after that we went to Wal-Mart, which I dislike because it is so busy. (I hate the store from November until February, due to holidays.) The school supplies area wasn't as busy as I thought it would be, so I tolerated it. My favorite part was when I found the cute puzzle erasers. They had a pastry one and then the sushi ones. My sister loves sushi (and we had to split the package of erasers), so she wanted the sushi pack. I said that I would be okay with getting the sushi pack, but only if I get the fancy tuna and the rice ball. (If you don't what I mean by "fancy tuna', it is a anime reference. The real name for it is Ootoro. Oh, and the reason why I wanted the rice ball is also because of an anime reference.) Then, we bought the stuff and went home... I know, it wasn't very eventful, but it was a experience from last year. Last year I was really smiley, I loved school, I loved shopping (even if the store is extremely crowded), and I was so excited that I couldn't stay still. This year, I can wait until school starts, days are going by WAY too quick, and I really dislike shopping (especially when it is so crowded). I am almost the complete opposite of last year. (You will soon find out that I change a lot...) Well, I hope you enjoyed this post... (If you are still reading, then congratulations  you didn't die of boredom or something :) )
