My dear Freddie

So let me begin by explaining about my "boyfriend." His name is Freddie Ortega and the history of our relationship began the summer before my 11th grade year. As me and my amazing friend Whitney were walking through the mall, we saw the manikin standing in front of Hollister. Some how or another, I ended up taking a picture with him and therefore the tradition began. So last night as me, whitt, and Ericka walked the mall, we found the opportunity arise once again for me to take a picture with my headless boy, hence the picture to the right :)

Anyways, I believe you get the picture. Do not begin to fret, I do not actually have a boyfriend :)

Now to explain a little about my week. I will begin by retelling the embarrassment we lit-critters were put through this last Tuesday (I do believe that ultimately I was the only one with the slightest embarrassment, however). It all began as any normal lit crit day. We sat in the hall together and began reading our VERY boring book entitled "Erewhon" (Nowhere backwards.. with the w and h separated..) After becoming extremely annoyed with its boringness, whitt suggested we sing our "song" which is really "Going to the Chapel" with a three part harmony. It is really tons and tons of fun to sing and if we hadn't been sitting in the middle of the hallway where I felt highly uncomfortable, I would have consented. In the end I did anyways believing no one would hear. So we sang our hearts out (several times) and only a few minutes before it was time to leave, one of the girls in Mrs. Anderson's classroom walked out and said that they could hear us loud and clear in the classroom. Embarrassing much? But it was all good. and rather enjoyable. Oh the fun times we have together :)

Anyways, next thing you know I am driving with my two best friends to Denton to spend the night with the sister and head to TWU the next morning. When we arrived in Denton, we immediately made our way to the mall, where we tried on prom dress after prom dress. It was very entertaining. :) Oh and we got some pretty amazing pictures:

After our little escapade to the mall, we made our way to the local On the Border for an overdue On the Border date. We had a wonderful time stuffing our faces with Chips and hot sauce and some very delicious chicken fajitas. :) We left our waiter a very generous tip and a sweet little thank you note :)

The next morning, we made our way to TWU for our tour around the campus. Fun stuff. After a wonderful lunch at Quiznos we headed over to Yogurt story and had some incredibly delicious frozen yogurt. And then we made our way back to home sweet home.

Overall, I have had a wonderful week so far and I am not looking forward to going back to school tomorrow, but thank goodness it is only for a few more months. I can not wait to join my lovely sister next year with my best friends. Life is great.
