Bubbles and Things.

So today, Kim and I decided to venture off and start our day to OCC to pick up a camera since I've got an assignment to do that's due Monday. Hehe I know, I am a total slacker. Afterwards, we came up with a brilliant idea. One we haven't done in a very long time. SHOPPING! On our way over, we were discussing about which shopping place to go to and how we didn't want to spend a numerous amount of money on one piece of clothing that you can buy for the price of two things. Well all that changed when we arrived to a certain shopping destination. Right when we walked into the doors of Foreign Exchange, I knew we were in trouble. We admired practically everything in there, but nothing stood out more to me than these two absolutely adorable skirts! They screamed SUMMER, and I really could not resist. In my mind, I was drooling with pleasure and was already trying to figure out what shirts I should wear with them and when I should wear them. I am still gaga over the skirts to this minute. : > As for Kim, she's such a hooch. She bought a skirt that's absolutely cute and short. One I picked for her. ;) (You're welcome, Kim.) She also bought I believe a dress. It was either a dress or a uni but with shorts. Still very nice. We are certainly ready for summer. I will tell you that much. Anyhow, after our shopping excitement, we were back in the car. Heading to who knows where. It's how we roll. We drive around figuring out what to do next until we think of what we need or of a place we just want to go and look around. We decided to go to WalMart. Why? Just because we could and we did, too. Hehe Plus, I wanted to buy another car scent for my car because I thought I was going to run out, but then I ended up not buying it because I was too tired to wait in line. Instead, we walked around WalMart for a bit and Kim noticed these bubble wands. At this point, my excitement level, and I am pretty sure hers too, went up like no other. I've been desperately trying to tell her that we should have a bubble party AND a water party, but it ended up never happening. Maybe in the summer, though. Right Kim? ;) Ehehe But yeah, we didn't end up getting the wands right away. Instead we put it aside and decided to look around some more. Until... dun dun dun!!! We reached an aisle full of bubble shindigs! Of course we couldn't resist the low low price of bubbles, so we decided to buy some! I was extremely filled with joy. You have no idea. I was shrieking quietly to myself, and really wanted to blow bubbles right then and there. Kim bought this party pack for four bucks and two wands for a dollar each. Not bad for bubbles, aye? Once we've checked out, we were trying to figure out where to go to enjoy our bubble- blowing fest. First we picked the beach, but it was too far and we really wanted to blow the bubbles or we seriously were going to burst. We ended up going to a park. I swear we looked like creepers with our bubble wand and mini bubble bottles. We were really trying to attract the little kiddies. ;) Once we took our first blows, it was pure magic. I really had this sort of happiness coming over me. I was at last one with those enormous bubbles. I seriously felt like I was at peace, and nothing in the world mattered at that point. I felt like a kid again. After some huffs and puffs and twirls, I was starting to get very light- headed, so unfortunately I had to stop. It was amazing for the time being. Since we were at the park and I no longer could blow the adorable little floating circles I decided to go on the swings. My second favorite thing in the world. When we got enough of fun blowing bubbles and swinging on swings, we were starving and went to a BBQ place we wanted to try. It was pretty interesting since it was ran by two Korean people, or so I think it's their place. It wasn't too bad. I got the pulled BBQ pork sandwich and Kim got the ribs. It was just funny because the lady had a very thick accent and she was telling us about the menu and the pictures that goes with the menu. It was absolutely hard to understand what she was saying. In the end, my stomach was satisfied, my mood was satisfied, and I could say I honestly had one of the best times of my life today. Thank you, Kim, for sharing it with me. :)

P.S. Now I wish I had brought some film to take pictures of this very special day. :/ next time, though. :)
