Talk about working 24/7!  I've been so busy with drawing those illustrations that I didn't even get to write in my diary!  There's so much to talk about that I can't even write as fast as it's all processing in my head!!  Maybe I'll just list them out.  Yeah, here they are:

1.  Shopping

Okay, so if you know my parents, they're not great fans of going out all the time to go shopping for things like clothes, and because I told my parents about the school festival and Zoey's skirt accident, they let me spend the whole weekend with Zoey and Chloe!! SQUEEEE!!  RCSx2000%!!

Anyways, so the Saturday after last week, we went shopping at the mall.  Zoey's mom dropped us off in front of Forever 21 since the first thing on our list was to find a new skirt for Zoey.  "Look for one with pleats.  Those look good on you," Zoey's mom had said over her shoulder as she drove off.

"Okay, mom," Zoey had already linked arms with us and headed into Forever 21.  We dubbed ourselves as fashion soldiers heading out to the battlefield!!

OBJECTIVE 001:  FIND PLEATED SKIRT - ACCOMPLISHED.

It only took us fifteen minutes to find the perfect navy blue skirt with a simple ivory-covered line wrapping around the hem.  When Zoey twirled around to get Chloe and my opinions, we both immediately gave her a thumbs up.  "Let me Snap it to my mom really quick," Zoey confirmed, pulling us together for a selfie.

With the skirt safely in our grasp, we were now heading to some "cultural" stores to find some awesome costumes for the festival.  "Hey, that store's Japanese, right?" Chloe pointed excitedly.  "Let's go there first!  The stuff in there is suuuuper cute!!"

We walked into the store and gasped out loud.  Everything was so pretty and spring-like!!

"Welcome to Tokyo Japanese Lifesty-  Hey, guys!" the cashier suddenly ran over.

"JADYN?!" the three of us said in unison.  What a coincidence!!

Thanks to Jadyn's help, I bought several cute spring-colored kimonos, matching fans, and shoes for the girls in my group.  For the guys, I got awesome headbands and fuzzy hats that Jadyn claimed were pretty close to Mongolian hats.  "So how did you get a job here?  You're not even old enough, technically, right?" Chloe added, "Oh, and I absolutely HAVE to try that new makeup over there!" she dashed off, distracted.

"Well, actually, I'm just helping a friend fill in her shift since her family runs this store," Jadyn sheepishly grinned.  "But keep it a secret!"

"That's pretty cool!" Zoey nodded.  "Speaking of which, where do you think Chloe and I can find some cool Spanish stuff?"

Jadyn snapped her fingers, grinning.  "I know!  Talk to Raul!  Have you met him yet?" she quickly scrolled through her iPhone and pulled up a photo of a cute-looking Spanish guy.  "Raul Cervantes, he's in grade 9 from Spain."

Chloe had just come back with an armload of makeup, which she almost dropped when she saw the guy on the phone.  "Oh...my...gosh...!!" she gasped.

"What, do you know him?" I turned to ask her.

"A-Ah, well, I mean, I guess I just thought I knew him," Chloe fibbed, rubbing her head laughing.

Zoey and I exchanged glances, but we didn't ask her anything until we were out of the store.

"Sooooo~?  What's your background with that cute Raul guy?" Zoey grinned.

Chloe blushed, looking away.  "Well, I may know him from the past...but I'm not sure."

I couldn't help but squeal.  "That would be just so awesome!  He looks like a good guy!"

OBJECTIVE 002:  FIND CULTURE FESTIVAL COSTUMES - ACCOMPLISHED.

2.        ❤❤❤❤❤Bloggers by Fate!❤❤❤❤❤

Squeee!!  So if you guys didn't know, I have an online blog where I answer questions while talking about my life!  Check out the external link on this page, and it will take you there!

I was talking to Brandon about blogging the other day at school, and he seemed really surprised and thought it was a great idea!  I encouraged him to start his own, and he has!  He even made his own receiving mailing address to accept questions like me!  How's that for fate?  I'm definitely going to ask him a question (Anonymously, of course!!) about advice and stuff!  Maybe I should ask him if he has a crush...??

3.        Eating real French cuisine!~

So remember how Jadyn, Zoey, Chloe, and I had to do that French project?  We decided to meet up at Chloe's house after shopping for almost the whole day.  "So, the handout says we need to prepare a food and present it in class in French," Chloe read.  Jadyn was flipping through a couple of cookbooks, and Zoey was surfing online.

"Let's do something simple that may not be a popular dish but is easy to make," I suggested, pointing to some pictures of macaroni and cheese and lasagna.  "Those may get messy and are hard to serve to our class."

Jadyn rocked on her heels.  "Well, let's make a list!" she pulled out her purple notebook (which I was still dying to see the inside) and opened up to an empty page.

Madeleines
Chocolate Croissants
Crepes
Macarons
Profiteroles (Cream puffs)
Quiches
