Have any of you done anything exciting? Well tell the world here!
One of the more interesting things was just this week - spending Tuesday-Thursday at the MN State Fair with 4-H.
The boring part (the actual reason I was there): I had a model rocket on display there, earned a blue ribbon.
Slightly more entertaining: one night there was a dance going on, and since we can't act like normal people, three of my friends and I wore matching shirts and sunglasses and acted as greeters/security, which earned some wonderful comments, mainly from the girls.
"Just... don't look at me."
"What makes you think we're looking at you? We're wearing sunglasses."
---
"*snort*"
---
"You guys don't really look buff enough to be security..."
"CONCEALED WEAPONS!"
Then we actually went into the dance, where the people working in the building were trying to find everyone somebody to dance with. Still wearing sunglasses, I'm being pushed toward a girl, and the guy pushing me asks her "Hey, would you dance with this guy?", at which she rolls her eyes and walks away. The guy pushing me commented on how rude that was, and I just laughed at how people failed to realize that we were TRYING to look ridiculous.
Anyway, this the kind of dumb crap we usually pull... and as far as I'm concerned, if a girl doesn't realize that somebody would only wear sunglasses at night in a dark room as a joke, she's way too boring to even be worth dancing with. We did get a few compliments after the dance, anyway, haha.
Finally, On the last day I was there, people really started panicking about the H1N1 "Swine Flu", which pretty much lead to a sore throat in most people (oh the horror! Apparently it can have more serious effects in some people though
)
Alright then, pardon my huge post, that was just a good way to end my summer and it was practically 3 days of constant laughing to anyone who was actually there.
Let's hear everyone else's stories.
