It was so hot outside, that I thought it would be nice to break out this new white dress Ive had stashed in my closest. I thought it might be something nice to wear than the usual jeans and sneaks I always have on...wait, Im getting side tracked....
So the show...it was AMAZING. The lil kids were so cute. The performed several dances, sang songs, and they were just the cutest things. A few older kids sang songs and I was very surprised cuz I didnt know they could sing so well. I asked the class if anyone wanted to do anything for the show and a few students said yes, so I assumed they just werent interested. 2 girls from my class sang songs and I was so excited!
The prom was also this past saturday, and that too was AMAZING. I met up with the students and some colleagues and we drove over to the hall we had reserved. I was sooooooo surprised. Now I really have nothing to compare this too cuz I missed my prom, but it just seemed so different in the whole sense of the word prom. First, all types of onlookers and people were standing in the street. They were roped off on the sidewalks and police were directing traffic in the street. There was a red carpet, and after everyone was individually dropped off, their picture was taken. Uptairs was nicely decorated and the students looks gorgeous. Some of the dresses were questionable, but overall everyone looked really nice. The food was amazing. The students are allowed to drink alcohol now, so they were toasting and smoking. It was wonderful. The music was kinda suspect (the makarena, and jailhouse rock among others) but I got up and danced a few times. Overall it reminded me of how young IM NOT! hahahaha
I dropped a couple of leva for this outfit. Deep purple strapless dress, clutch, silver accents, and pumps. I has such a good time.
I left the ball about 1:30 cuz there was a parade sun morning bright and early. It was in celebration of the Bulgarian alphabet and Cyril and Metodi very famous BGs who pioneered in Bulgarian education. The parade was interesting, but mostly very quick. My school had this huge wooden looking banner that read the name of the school and the smaller kids carried colored flags and ballons. The celebration on fri and the parade sun made me realize just how involved the younger kids are. The older kids were pretty much no where to be found (probably somewhere studying hahahaha). Anyway I decided to go light, jeans a tee and some sandals. It was BURNING up that day. My allergies were kicking into overdrive, itchy eyes, stuffy nose, itchy ears......
Monday there was no class and I wasnt complaining. My good friend had a b-day party so I met with some other people at the school and we went by bus to party with her. There was delicious food, awesome music, great singing, dancing and just a good time all around. The b-day cake was banging!!!! I felt so stuffed and full by the time I got home. I woke up about 5:30 AM with stomach pains and was worried for a while. But after I popped some pills, I was as good as new and in the bed again.
What a weekend......
