Gepetto... i'm a real girl!
Oh yes, friends... your local neighborhood Simone went shopping yesterday. With 4 other girls. Girls whose company she enjoyed! It's one amazing news story after another here...Anyway, Jen and I went to the Summit with a girl from France that she works with (Sabrina) who is here for a summer work exchange program, and her two friends Julie and Julia (so precious). We went to Old Navy first... Julia started going crazy, and Julie and Sabrina checked out some purses on clearance. I saw how cute they were and had to check them out. As soon as I looked, I HAD to get one for myself. I also got some cute little buttons, and a notebook (with matching pencils! darn girls) which shows my tribute to absolute disdain for standardized/scantron/multiple choice tests. Then the French girls went to American Eagle and The Gap or Express (aren't they the same store anyway), and Jen and I went to Lane Bryant. After trying on this cute outfit that I created myself, I decided not to buy anything (cause I'm not rich!) but one of the chicks that works there convinced me to fill out an application because [1] they're hiring, and [2] employees get a 45-55% discount! SCORE! So it would rock if I worked there. And I've calculated how much free time I'd have during the week if I had 2 jobs, 16 hours of class + homework, and slept like 7 hours/day. All I have to say is... less internet, but more money. It's profitable. No one online will miss me that much. :D
Then we went to Applebees and met up with Sherry... that was the most entertaining Applebees-without-Thumper experience I've ever had! They thought our waiter was cute, and Sabrina even took a picture with him! Then we all took pictures together, it was adorable. Then the girls asked Jen if they could go grocery shopping, so the six of us went to Kroger. Jen called it K-Roger and then they got confused... we explained store nicknames (like Wally World), and it was all good. So we went to Kroger and Sabrina and Julia got a whole bunch of paper bags. Jen, Sherry, and I got all confused and they were like, "we don't have paper bags in France! things are easier to carry in these bags!" it was precious.
We dropped the girls off at Louisville Hall (where they live for the summer) and Sabrina made Jen her official close friend. (French people signify aquaintances by one kiss on the cheek when saying hi/bye, okay friends with 2, and really good friends with 3!) Jen got three kisses on the cheek and was so excited. It's not only a big deal in any instance, but it's a big deal for a French person to consider an American person that good of a friend! Yay Jen. :D We came back and then Bryce and I played lots of Zelda.
All in all, it was a good day. The hot boy came into work... that rocked. Although Josh got an attitude with me because I put the toilet paper on the roll upside down. But when you gotta go, you gotta go! I didn't care how it was on there, I just put it on there. Jen told me later on that he was joking, but he was being mean to me so I get to officially be mean to him until he gets off work tomorrow morning. So, hah. :)
