Today was one of the craziest days I have had in a couple weeks (yes they occur quite often compared to the average person). Really this whole weekend has been crazy. I came home Friday after class for the first time since I moved into UCF. I came home and surprised my friends then we went to the PBGS football game (we won- GO GATORS) which was a little awkward because when I went to say hi to Patricia Karrh, Lauren Thorton literally pushed me away cause I was blocking her view and sadi not to come back till half time. So I walked around with Ace, saw Ernkevious, Sam Driggers, Julia Rotandi and Kory Burns. Not many other people said hi, but I’m getting side tracked.
So after the game I brought CFA back for my mom and Suzy and went to help Laurie get ready for her grad party the next day. Ended up staying till 2AM making bee cake balls, didn’t fall asleep till 3:30 due to my moms snoring and woke up at 7:30 when she left. So mind you I’m running on 4 hours of sleep.
I get to the Saunders and start decorating then went to run the errands; balloons, ice, etc. Spring was in charge and that was a little hard to submit to but I think I did well. Everything turned out great-so over the top. It kinda made me feel stupid about my shower I just threw, it was just so over the top I felt like I hardly did anything for the shower compared to that. Visited with friends, took pictures and so forth. The party started winding down near 4, I left by 5.
When I got home to pack my things I realized I didn’t have my phone. So I packed everything up and went to the Saunders to pick it up. Said bye to everyone again, though it didn’t seem like any special occasion, I was just leaving, again. This is where the fun begins!
I pull out onto Military to get gas and a dog comes bolting out right in front of me. Only by an angels power did I miss the dog and manage to shift, make that propel , thrust, make a mass landslide of everything in my car. I’m just glad the doggie was ok.
Finally I get on the road, not too bad of traffic. I love passing people in the ‘Stang it has such power! Then I decided to put on cruise control for 75, the speed limit was 60. It’s a country road I figured it was fine. Not too long after I passed not one, not two, but three state patrols/police. Great! I couldn’t slam on the breaks fast enough to make them not notice so I just hoped they didn’t. But then I saw a light coming behind me and it must’ve been the way the glass was moving in the back but it looked like the lights were flashing. I flipped! First thought no lie, was to pull off the road behind a bush and turn off my lights. I know, so smart. But I didn’t, I stayed on the road hoping and PRAYING it wasn’t a cop. My music was off, car going under the speed limit, my mind thinking of any way I could get out of the ticket I thought I would soon surely face. To my surprise about 20 min later a gold Honda passes, dang, I was safe!!
I am a bit afraid of driving over the skyway, day or night, but I always like attempting to take pictures. So on the ascent up the bridge I was snapping away until I realized I was going to slow and should probably speed up before I started rolling back down the wrong way, Yikes!
I finally got into town after 4 hours of driving; listening to my iPod on shuffle and pouring my Arnold Palmer. I went to meet my mom and sister where our cousins were staying on the beach. They told me to look for a restaurant, Guppy’s, on the right then the condo would be on the left shortly after that. Well I was looking for Guppy’s, just a little to hard. I almost smashed into the cop in front of me TWICE because I was looking on the side of the road and not in front of me and he kept stopping. Thank goodness I didn’t hit him either. So many people were spared tonight! LOL! And now I sit on my grandmas couch typing a blog of my crazy life that should be a tv show while karisa looks over my shoulder. Ha. What a life.
Oh forgot to mention, when I got here I was dripping (literally) with sweat because my air hadn’t been cooling the whole way over. Come to find out, I had it on vent NOT a/c. I am an idiot and my life is quite entertaining, that’s about it. Until next time this is Kaylin Bassett reporting live in St. Pete, FL. Good night and good luck!
