Last Friday, after work I went to Stephanie's place and pick her and Sam up. We were all so excited for the upcoming weekend! We got a little bit of a late start, which I was a little anxious about that at first, but it got better. Springfield is like 3 hours away, and we were trying to get there in time for a dance that was going on. Our first stop was in Harrisonville. We were all hungry for dinner (we had only been on the road for like 40 minutes.. haha we are lightweights). Sam and I thought it would be super fun to talk in British accents, just to see what other people's reactions would be like. It started off well, and it was hard not to laugh, people actually believed us. Then, our moment was ruined by these toothless, jerks who called us "bi***es"! Wanna know why they called us that?? because we let them go ahead of us in line. What gentleman they were. Sam, started talking normal again and said that "hes probably having a bad day because he has no teeth" haha he heard us.. but didnt do anything. So, after our first mini adventure, we got back on the road...
My amazing radio decided to stop working a few months back, so I being resourceful, used an adapter to plug an IHOME into my car.. haha very classy. But, at least we had tunes for the road! So 9:30pm rolls around and we finally make it to Springfield! We got to the building the dance was at. Let me tell ya, we met every single person there! All 20 of them.. thats barely enough to make a mosh pit... let alone crowd surfing. We were greeted by my lovely cousin Angela (the reason why we went to Springfield in the first place) and began mingling..(you couldn't really dance without look awkward). That all changed... "The Cotton -eyed Joe" came on! (Best song ever) ,, everyone started doing the line dance version of it (none of us KC girls knew that one) So thankfully Sam had enough guts as I did, to dance around in the giant circle formation you have to make when doing the dance properly. We definitely made an impression on the other people, with all the blank stares and weird looks. I believe someone shouted out "You girls are DUMB".. .hopefully it was a joking way.
It got better though! Poor Sam kept getting called "Miley Cyrus". We eventually however did make new friends! After the dance was over. We all went to IHOP, I thought we were hanging out with Angela's friends, but it turns out she hardly knew any of them.. but they were all pretty cool! Once we finished at IHOP, we drove back to Angela's dorms, she parked like 2 blocks away ( or at least it felt that way). It was cold and rainy, and we had to walk... we did make the most out of it. We all 3 couldn't stop laughing hysterically because our stuff kept falling out of our hands and in the street! Very funny!
Day 2,.... the next day we woke up and went shopping at the mall! We also went to Braum's and got delicious ice cream! That night Angela fed us pizza, and we had a mini spa night. Just like in Middle School, only better! Sam and I walked through the hallways of the dorm in our PJS, and my leopard print snuggie! So much fun.
Day 3.. our last day in the lovely college town.. we went to church and then after leaving Springfield, I got us lost.. haha I had to call my dad (whom is the best GPS ever) and we finally made it back. Overall Springfield was a blast! And I can't wait to go back!!
Next roadtrip..... UTAH!! or St Louis
