This Is My Life

Well, Today Was Exciting

Hi y'all! Today was a fairly interesting day, so here's, like, six different topics of the day, because why not.

•~•~•~•~•

It begins with this morning, during lunch at band practice. I was teaching some of our music to a younger marimba player, when I reached a part where I didn't know the sticking for our run. Because of that, I asked a more experienced marimba player (let's call him K) on which hand he started playing it. He began with his left hand, but then I remembered that our fourth marimba started on her right hand. Because of that, we didn't know what sticking to use, and decided to flip a coin. Unfortunately, we had no coins. K, however, had a mini flipbook of notecards, which he flipped. If it landed on the cover, we began on the left hand. If it landed on the back, we began on the right hand.

Well, as luck would have it, the book opened and landed in the middle! (That was pretty hilarious, to tell you the truth.) Although it reminded me that I had a notecard in my binder. I tossed it, and it floated, spinning peacefully, to the ground. When it landed, the chosen side was to begin on our left hand.

The second the card landed, our pit instructor (C) walked in, and we told him what happened, and how the card chose the left hand. C then went to a keyboard and played the run, eventually choosing the left hand, the same thing the card chose.

This was amazing!

C showed up the second the card landed, and he chose the same answer. Coincidence? I think not! I believe that (Aang can save the world) the card summoned C. The end. It wanted to prove to us that it was right, so it summoned C, who had the same result. It was all a part of its original plan, to get us to listen to it. So, in the end, there you have it: a summoning card!

Later in the day, my family went to the doctor's to get our physicals done. At one point, my sister and I had to use the bathroom, so the doctor told us to go to where the bathroom sign was. Apparently, however, my sister didn't see the sign. Instead, she saw the fire extinguisher sign, and you know what she asked? She asked if we were supposed to follow the sign for the fire extinguisher! Like, what? I was laughing at her, 'cause that was pretty dumb, and she finally saw the bathroom sign. Still, that was priceless!

After the doctor's, we went to Costco for...

*drum roll please*

🥁 •~• 🥁 •~• 🥁 •~• 🥁 •~• 🥁 •~• 🥁

...groceries! At Costco, my sister noticed two guys grocery shopping together. Her, being the fujoshi she is, instantly shipped them, talking about how if they're shopping together, they have to be dating. No ifs, ands, or buts about it. Then she noticed that one of them had a ring, realizing that if only one had a ring, then her dreams were crushed, and these two men were not, in fact, dating.

Some time later, we were in line at the cash register, behind the same two guys. And you know what? They both had matching gold rings. My sister was ecstatic, because this meant that they had to be together. (Unless they're pulling a Viktor and Yuuri stunt. But you know. Lol.) And that was pretty cool.

Another funny thing:

On the way out of Costco, my sister ran up to me, about to pull on my ponytail, before stopping mid-attack, telling me, "I was gonna pull your hair before I remembered your hair loss and decided not to. Lol." 😐 I feel like this was what my face actually looked like. Before I started laughing.

•~•~•~•~•

We also went to Panda Express today, and I got a fortune that says: Your imagination brings great joy to those around you.

Does it? I hope so.

But it reminded me of one time during school last year when my friend and I were talking in class. He put his water bottle down on the desk, but since he did it a little too forcefully, one lone droplet of water escaped from within the bottle, landing silently on his desk. We were both watching, staring at it intently, since it had somehow managed to capture our attention, and in about half a second, I said, "Yaaaaaay, I'm freeeee!" in a small high pitched voice, saying what seemed to be the water's thoughts. My friend gave me an odd look and began laughing because apparently that's an odd thing to think when a drop of water jumps out of its bottle.

You know what his thoughts were? He said he just thought, Oh, my water spilled. Like, what? Darn. That confused me, because no offense, but that's kind of boring compared to an escapee from the jail of an ocean. But, I mean, apparently, the way I saw that was interesting, although odd, to him.

For me, I hope that thinking that way makes some people happy. I mean, my friends say I'm a funny person. Do you think that's what that meant?

Like, I have a friend who sees things in odd ways, and every time he says or does something that no one else even expecting from that situation, it's the greatest thing! Like, wow! His mind actually goes to these places that my mind can't seem reach, and it's amazing! Could the fortune mean something kinda like that? My sister said it means that I should keep writing. And that works too.

Also, I probably shouldn't be focusing too much on such a minor thing as a fortune, which probably isn't important in any sort of way.

Still, I was just curious.

•~•~•~•~•

Also, I wanna update my Wizardess Heart book soon. I mean, I have like 4 wh story drafts. I just don't feel like writing them. Like, I wanna edit what I don't have, and I wanna write what I don't wanna edit, and I wanna read what I don't wanna write. You get it? It's an endless cycle.

Welp.

Just know, I should get something done soon.

Depending on what you consider 'soon'.

No guarantees.

•~•~•~•~•

I think that's all for today. A whole 1088 words on how my day went. That's at least a story chapter, wow.

Anywho, how are y'all doing?
