Yesterday after the visit with the Egg Donor, I found out that my mom ordered my laptop. It's my birthday and graduation present. She was told by my sister that I have been complaining about not having it yet, which is a lie. I only mentioned that it would be nice to have it like three times, and I wasn't lying. It's easier to do some things on a computer rather than a phone.
My computer came in today. I don't know exactly what it is, but it's a tablet that connects to a keyboard. It's about the same size as the school laptops but it works way better!
The topic this evening is nails. Lilly went to the visit yesterday, which was awesome because I don't get to see her very often. We celebrated my birthday because we didn't have a visit last month. Her gifts are getting better, not that they could get much worse. when Kayla, Lilly, and me were leaving, I asked her when I was going to paint her nails. Whenever she comes home from college, she asks me to paint her nails. She likes my nail art skills. I went to her house right after.
We hung out for a few hours. I painted her toenails first, a soft pink with black zebra stripes, and then her fingernails, rainbow French tips. We talked about a lot including her and Zak. They are so cute! I hope to have a relationship like theirs some day. I only met Zak once, at my birthday/graduation party, and he knew it was me from a picture Lilly took of me painting her nails. I was very impressed and pleased that he knew it was me and not Kayla. I guess that he worked hard on remembering everyone's names. He seems really nice and he makes Lilly so happy. They spoil each other too.
After we were done with nails, we went to go pick up a cake Lilly had ordered for Zak's birthday. It was yellow with a batman symbol and said happy birthday. I thought it was super cute! When we got back to her house, I had to go home because she had to go pick Zak up from work.
While we were in the car on the way to get the cake, she talked to me about college and stuff that big sisters tell their little sisters. No one has sat down with me and told me what to expect from college. I kinda feel like I'm going in blind because no one has talked to me about it. All I really have to go off of is TV, and everyone knows that isn't 100% accurate. At this point I feel like she's the only one that's trying to prepare me.
On the upside, I'm financially covered for my first year. Today I received a check in the mail for $500, it was a grant. My parents were very proud of me. My mom said that she was proud of me for getting it. I simply replied, "Why? You're the one that filled out all the scholarship stuff. All I did was the hard work to be eligible for all of the scholarships." She agreed with me and thought it was kind of funny. She's starting to think more of my jokes are actually funny. I've always been funny, she's just too busy to actually listen to me sometimes. Maybe she''ll miss me afterall. Just saying. :)
