Friday, August 28th, my friends and I decided to go do normal teenage things and go see a movie. We went and saw Ant-Man that was, luckily, still playing. Sounds normal, right? And it was...until Carol started giving directions. Miranda wasn't in the right lane at one point, Sophie made eye contact with a van full of boys, and we drove in a giant circle to get back to where we needed to be. Then, instead of making the wise decision and listening to me, Miranda continued straight instead of turning left and we once again got a lovely view of Purdue's campus. Carol and Miranda argued a lot. Miranda even said something about asking for directions to which Carol said that we don't need to, that she could do it. Sophie and I decided that they sounded like an old married couple on a road trip. Finally, we made it to the Taco Bell we were planning on eating at and got out of the car, as one does. Then, Sophie shouted "Are you kidding me?" as one does not do. Turns out she was reading a sticker on the back of a car.
Anyway, we went inside the Taco Bell and ordered. Sophie first, Carol next, then Hannah, then me, and finally Miranda. I ordered the three soft tacos supreme because that was cheaper than ordering two tacos and a drink. I got my order, filled my cup with Dr. Pepper, and went to sit down with my friends. I opened up my tacos to find that they only had cheese and lettuce, instead of cheese, lettuce, tomato, and sour cream, as one would expect when ordering a taco supreme. As can be expected, I was very upset. I believe I said something along the lines of "I'm gonna cry"... not my proudest moment, but the truth. Miranda, being the true friend she is, traded me two tacos with sour cream for my stupid tacos, saying "If I don't have sour cream, I'm not going to cry, so here." (Unfortunately, I still had to eat one un-sour creamed/un-tomato-ed taco. It's a crime.) I realize that this is all very eventful. I haven't even gotten to after the movie yet! So, we got to the movie theater (and paid $8 for a student ticket! What has the world come to?) and went into the theater. There weren't enough seats for us all to sit together, so Carol, Hannah, and I sat a row behind Sophie and Miranda. I put my foot on Miranda's head because I could. The movie began. It was a great movie; I'd recommend it to everyone. I laughed so hard I cried, and I almost cried at a very emotional part. (I'm afraid I shouldn't say for fear of spoilers, but it was heart-breaking.) We all enjoyed it, and our favorite character was Luis. This, after the movie, is where the fun started. Carol once again got on Google Maps. (And please, be forgiving in these next few parts because as funny as they were, they are very hard to describe.) Miranda got in the wrong lane. Carol gave bad directions. Hannah jumped in there at one point with her phone. We passed Carol's ex-sister-in-laws house and debated egging it. Eventually, we winded up in some off shoot neighborhood of West Lafayette. I had complained earlier to the lack of music in Miranda's car. She waited a few minutes and then proceeded to turn on the creepiest freaking music ever! It was classical music, but it was slow and in a minor key. It was made creepier by the fact that none of us realized she had turned it on and we were completely lost at nine o'clock at night. Sophie, Hannah, and I all thought we were about to be murdered by an ice cream truck man. Anyway, soon we were able to find our way back to the highway or the interstate or whatever (I don't drive) and be on our merry little way. (After much yelling, stopping, and wrong turns.) We drove back to Delphi, Sophie refusing to let me look at clouds because I didn't think they were cool. We got on the road to take me to my house, when all of a sudden a furry white thing appeared in the middle of the road. I thought it was a cat. Apparently, it was an opossum. The driver (Who shall remain nameless at this point) ran over it, and killed it. We all screamed and are still unsure as to who started the screaming (*cough* Sophie *cough*). And that my friends, was the end of my Friday night. Do you understand the title now? Leave a Reply. |
