Task One: Make Sushi. Thanks for the dare :) It was actually a rather enjoyable task but I have to start out with a quick summary of how my day went. I currently work at a church roughly 30 minutes away from my house. In order to get there on time I should leave my house around 8 am. When I started the care this morning it was 8:10....
To make matters worse, the gas was stubbornly remaining on empty, regardless of the fact that I kept hitting the dashboard repeatedly...then again by the third or fourth time I realized I was already defeated and quickly made my way to Chevron. When I got there I tried to use my gift card but couldn't understand how to work the machine...causing quite the display of my Oregon nature...marking me one of the worst fuel pumpers ever.
Then, I was headed to work when I realized I needed cardboard boxes for the art activity we were going to do so I pulled into the nearest Stater Bros and rushed in only to find myself face to face with one of the youngest looking store bag boys I've ever seen. He was sweet and tried to help but sadly I ended up leaving with only paper bags to use instead....the clock read 8:45.
Just then, I got back in my car, ran over to the church to miss the morning welcome time but still catch the group prayer and get settled down before church began. You know, when you have to sacrifice Starbucks to be on time...things get a little bit more interesting (due to the lack of alertness).
Church ended around 12:30, but the youth leaders loved the art project so much that we continued making our own t-shirts (the art project had to do with spray painting our leadership meetings' name on them). We didn't end until about 2:30 when I was then asked to go to Disneyland...which I would usually have loved to have gone but my pass has been expired for about a year.
I decided to buy a new one on the whim (which by the way doesn't mean I have the budget to do so, equaling the next two weeks of my meals consisting of top ramen and tuna) and we headed out. I also had chosen to wear flip flops which at Disneyland (slick pavement) and in the rain (even worse slick pavement) made me walk as though I had just pooped my pants the majority of the time, clenching on to my friend each step of the way. When we returned at 9:00 pm (which our ETD at Disneyland was supposed to be 7:45) we found our cars locked away in the horrible security bars of yorba linda friends. Therefore, my friend and I had to track across the campus in the pouring rain, wearing nothing but a tank top (that was my own fault...I'm just dumb) and hike up the hill to our car.
Once getting in our car we realized we'd have to off road to get out of the church parking lot (which wasn't that bad but idk what else to call it) and out onto the road where I made my way home.
Now at this time I had already planned on having sushi for dinner so I reached Albertson's at about 9:45, got to campus with the materials at 10:00 pm and thanks to Annie something or other, had the easiest time rolling my own sushi rolls from a helper pack created for girls like me who sometimes need that bit of help on days like today :) So I finished my first take in some form or another and I am pleased to tell you my stomach is satisfied, my car is luckily back at school, and last but not least I've enjoyed the day with my friends thoroughly! Catch you on the next "dare". Keep your posts coming!
