So on Friday, I wake up at around 8ish, so I go down and help my mom. My father is at work, just like my sister, so it's just me and my mom. I help her with everything, and we head to an appointment which I missed due to heavy traffic, but it created good bonding time with my mom. We talked about my college plans, my current friends, and she even stood to listen to some of my music (which, miraculously she sang and knew *some* of the words!) so that was good. We head home and take care of my grandmother, and right after that, we hit the road for Borders. Note that my mother and I are reading-holics. We can stand to pick up a book, sit in the store, and just read for hours. So she bought me xxxHOLiC vol.1 (which, by the way, I'm loving!) and helped me pre-order Kaikan (Sensual) Phrase vol. 17 since I have 18 waiting to be read. So come Friday, we'll head down to Borders once more to pick up my order, along with HOLiC vol. 2 (and hopefully 3!)
That also leads into my current wanting to read Tsubasa. If I love xxxHOLiC already, I'm quite sure I'll love Tsubasa since it is a cross-over of HOLiC.
So while Friday was a great bonding day with my mother, today being Amy's birthday celebration, was an excellent friend bonding day. I think I've found myself a clique where we're actually ALL on the same page. I love Rosie and the twins, but we're all on two different levels, you know? ^__^ Rosie, The twins and I have two different kinds of humors.
So I met up with Amy, Ashleigh (Davis), Ua, Kyle, Codi, and Lily at TMC Karaoke. My voice was out of whack because I'm sort of sick, but who gives a rat's ass? We're all friends, and we're not afraid. Or at least, I'm not. Friends should just let go of silly self consciousness when we're out partying like that. :) And that's just what we did. So the first few songs were slow, then we jumped into Flyleaf (which they made me scream! D:) It was terrible at first, since my voice was warming up I suppose. After many Beatles and Journey songs, I was ready for what Amy's parents love most about me: my screamo voice. ;D
That's right bishes, Lina does SCREAMO! And I'm actually good at it, all the way through. No soar throats, just hoarseness. ;)
It was cute, actually. Amy's dad just started searching for screamo songs for me to do, and put them in for me. Before I knew, it they had me doing Flyleaf (again) and Ohio Is For Lovers. Oh, it was great. I screamed my heart out. Not to brag, but I sounded very close to the (dead) vocalist from Hawthorne Heights. And Kyle, who completely took me by surprise, assumed that I could do Drowning Pool songs and got me to scream Let The Bodies Hit The Floor with him (which he was right. I did quite well, even with the gutteral screaming. I didn't know I could do that! ^__^y :dances Chibi dance:
But that wasn't the best part of my day, really. The best part of my day was AFTER the karaoke, when Amy went to Toys n Joys and Ua&Codi went off elsewhere. The four of us left (Kyle, Ash, Lily, and myself) for PearlRidge, and we all followed Ash to Sanrio. I ended up buying a pink Hello Kitty keychain to match my phone and Ashie bought a big Hello Kitty doll in a panda suit (named Bunnita lol). After browsing hot Topic and pwning Kyle in DDR (harr, he kept pushing me off the dance platform when he'd mess up XD) we went down to the other side of the mall to Borders, then just went to Jamba Juice across from the mall. After Ash & Kyle got their Jamba, we just went to Starbucks, bought some cold drinks and snacks, sat down, and chatted for two hours. And that's what REALLY made my day. I've found that we're all on the same level of conversation and humor, and we all know what we're talking about. And what makes it better was that the person who I thought I was drifting away from because of the lack of... erm... hanging out... hehe... we realized that we're still close, and nothing has really changed. I got much closer to Ash, but what meant more to me was me discovering a side of Lily that I never knew, and that made me appreciate her more and more. She's not the annoying freshman I met in the beginning of the year, she's a sophomore at heart, like us. So yeah, I believe I've found a new great friendship with her. With a little more hang time, we could all become best friends foreverrrrr~! XD Then my mom came and dropped all of us at home, which is good. My mom can trust all of them now, and wow... they're just as respectful as I hoped they'd be. I'm so glad... I really am. <3
Kyle called about 20 minutes ago, and actually thanked me again and again for today. He said the exact same thing, and so did Lily. We're all down for more bonding. We're the perfect clique. :) I'm glad to see I have friends like them. I wish I saw it earlier.
In other news, I found an instrument repair guy who I will bring my flute to sometime during the week. Yay, finally. Then the group wants to get together right before summer school for me, when Ash leaves, and Kyle leaves. He gets his paycheck on Wednesday, so we're trying for then. Good fun, eh? :)
Goodnight everyone. <3

EDIT:
Note that in this blog, there are two "Lily's." The first one mentioned is Lilly with two Ls, Ruth-Lee and Angel's daughter. She's in the background of the picture, hovering over my name.
Lily with one L is my friend from school. Mmkay, just remember that. :3 Hope I didn't confuse you.
