Pillow Covers

thatdarngirl by thatdarngirl · Jun 3, 2002 · 238 views · Journal

It starts with pillow covers when your little. You place them on your head and have your little sister hold the end as you take absurdly slow steps down the stairs in your house, yelling at your sister when she forgets to hum the wedding march (which you fail to notice sounds more like a death march..or perhaps the graduation march?). It changes throughout the years. Next, it goes to giggling with a few friends as you sit in your flower and pastel decorated room. Endless discussions are held there on what your dream guy looks like (oddly enough, 9 out of 10 times he resembled Zack Morris from Saved by the Bell). That slowly evolves into middle school where note books are covered in your first name, and your latest crush's last name (written next to a cross out of last week's crush's name). It's all leading up to one of the biggest events in your life. Your wedding day. Now, at 17 I think I'm still a bit too young to be exactly planning that. It's nice to dream though isn't it? The perfect dress..good tasting cake..and of course the perfect guy. I guess what really matters though is that your happy and that everything works out wonderfully. I mean..it can't turn out too bad after practicing walking down the stairs with your little sister holding the pillow case end for you while humming the death march can it?

ha ha i know what you mean, so funny - although i think i was a little less obsessed with marriage than some girls i know. They go into bridal shops and pretend they are getting married so that they can try the dresses on!

thatdarngirl #2.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I want to do that!! That sounds like soooooo much fun! All my friends and I used to do was go into normal stores and try prom dresses/crazy outfits on and take pictures. Who knew that was illegal?

ilikebirds #2.1.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002

how is that illegal.... it's weird! but illegal ? unless it's not legal to be a weirdo then it's illegel..

thatdarngirl #2.1.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

It's illegal because you just may be trying to steal some of Delias (that's where we almost got caught) fashionable prom dresses. Really..if you wanted to you could go online, look at the clothing pictures there, and rip them off. It's pathetic. And..it's not weird.

legs legsFounder

Yeah i went with you and some of your old pals one day and did that. Wes was so mad they wouldnt let 2 of us in the dressing room at a time to take pictures! good times...

magnum #2.2 magnumOG 2001

umm wow, that is very scary. I think thats a diqualification of me dating anyone who went to bridal shops to try on wedding dresses when they are single. SCARY!

ilikebirds #2.2.1 ilikebirdsOG 2002

yea.... i get whatcha mean.. i mean.. i never wear pillow cases on my head or tried on bridal gowns.. but.. yea.. were in the same library, same row....

punkprincess #4 punkprincessOG 2001

AWWWW! every girl does that! you forgot the most important game of Middle Skool!!! MASH!!!! how many times i would play that during lunch time or when we had a substitute teacher... or at slumber parties picking all the "cutest boys" of the moment. how life changes... but in a miniscule way still stays the same. b/c you still imagine what your wedding will be like, where youll have it, what the colors will be, what song youll dance to........ahhh.... and who that special someone will be...

jay79 #4.1 jay79OG 2001

Not only middle school girls play MASH...On the last night in Vermont, Billy, Matt, and Todd played all night.

punkprincess #4.1.1 punkprincessOG 2001

LOL like i said... middle skool girls.... :-D (atleast mentally...)

jay79 #4.1.2.2 jay79OG 2001

iwz #4.1.3 iwz

hahah we used to play that in the back of the kingdom hall during the song. those were my bad days

jay79 #4.1.3.1 jay79OG 2001

and your gay days?? I think its so funny to hear that guys played MASH

magnum magnumOG 2001

what is this mash game!?

jay79 jay79OG 2001

It's a game that you play on paper (I could have sworn somebody explained this already), where you plan out your life...Who you're going to marry, where you're going to live, what kind of car you'll drive, etc etc...

magnum magnumOG 2001

uhhhh weird.....

jay79 jay79OG 2001

well, it was stated that GIRLS play it when they're in MIDDLE SCHOOL (unless you happen to be Billy, Matt, or Todd...in which case, you're just gay)

iwz iwz

magnum magnumOG 2001

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001

hahahahaahhahaahahahha good times...

thatdarngirl #4.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Middle School? Oh no..as high school students we still play MASH constantly. Without it..I don't know, we'd be very very bored. We turned it into Super MASH though..sound exciting enough?

punkprincess #4.2.1 punkprincessOG 2001

in high skool we advanced to "oranges" lol that was an interesting game...

thatdarngirl #4.2.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Ever play lemons? Slightly vile..

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001

actually... i think its the same thing. diff people call it diff things.

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

i want to play . i haven't played in awhile.

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

ever play butts up? and no i dont mean the kind rock supastar plays, but the kind where you peg each other with tennis balls

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

it's called the unorthodox way of playing WALL BALL

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001

wow! wall ball! all the guys in skool used to play that... i would watch.

rocksupastar rocksupastarFounder

no... they call what YOU do.. FAGS up... if you catch my drift... you sicko

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

that game is the bane of my existence. Boys at school still play it, hitting my friend Mark and I (while some how avoiding all others with us) almost every day. I think we have them scared to the point where they quickly mumble apologies, retrieve the ball and run. That's of course after the day I took the ball and wouldn't give it back until they asked for it nicely.

prozacchick prozacchickOG 2002

i was thinkin about lemons when i was reading this! my friend and i got in so much trouble once when we were like 13 cause we were playin that and her mom walked in and took it....ohhhh that was funny....its really a bad game if u play it right!

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

what is lemons anyway? somebody care to explain it?

ilikebirds ilikebirdsOG 2002

Do you like guess what type of house you live in ...and if you're wrong you get back in the face with a lemon ?

punkprincess punkprincessOG 2001
