Maryland
Every time I go back to Maryland, everything keeps getting better and better. I first met up with my friend Emily at her grandma and grandpa’s house to head off on the ten hour drive back to her house from Michigan. On the way, we stopped for dinner at her Aunt’s house (which was lovely, I must add. They have a big back yard with a beautiful garden.) Her little cousins were running outside and one of them peed behind the swing set which was nasty because we found out she had also peed in the pool that Emily and I were playing in earlier that evening. Besides that, I loved meeting her family from Michigan! After we left their house, we drove straight to Ohio and took a break at this rest stop that sold du-rags and fake mustaches (and knowing me, I had to get some haha.) Then after another food stop in Pennsylvania, we were home! Over the week, Emily and I watched movies like the original Exorcist, went shopping at the Montgomery Mall, hung out with friends, were the first in line for the Harry Potter Premiere and waited for 15 hours to get in at midnight, had a sleepover with all of the guys afterwards, went to build-a-bear, went to a birthday party, went to a bbq, played bop-it, made fun of people with blue and green hair, found this excellent boy that we both loved, etc! At the end of the week, my mom and Emily surprised me when my mom called me and told me I was going back the week after next to go to Warped Tour in MD! AND on top of that, Emily said he talked to Kevin Lyman (the creator of Warped Tour) and I get on the guest list with her to shadow him all day! I started balling my eyes out I was so so so thankful she would do that for me! I love spending every second with her and we never get tired of each other! I already miss her! <3 Thanks you for everything Emily, for being my best friend.
