Two weeks ago, I was at the Kind of Prussia Mall in Philadelphia with my mother. We went straight after leaving Lydia's house (the sleepover from hell. see last post.) to find a dress for the spring formal dance at my school. Half way into the 'excursion', it finally hit me; I didn't want to go. I looked at my mother, her hand wrapped slightly around a clothing rack at Urban Outfitters and said with attempted pride, "I'm not going to the dance next week."
We spent the rest of the time having fun, shopping (for once), and just hanging out together. Fervent as the choice was, I proudly smiled when I told Lydia and Anastasia my choice. Long story short, I got dumped again. Exactly like Mollie dumped me.
On Thursday, I found that my friend Nathan wasn't going either. Our families have been friend since we were babies (literally!), and so the idea of a trip to New York ensued.
We saw Mary Poppins on Broadway, which was excellent. I was taken back to the very moment of my age of 4 during the show. I was so very mesmerized by the effects, the staging, the acting, and most of all the dancing and singing. The building was built one hundred and five years ago; The New Amsterdam Theatre. The experience was truly unforgettable. Anybody who's looking for a Broadway show to see in New York, please, see it!

I'm so sorry, love. I hate how that kind of thing happens to you, but at least you stood up for yourself by saying you didn't want to go to the dance in the first place. There's no use in doing things you don't want to do. The most important thing is to be happy. You'll find some real friends that will stick by you soon enough. I just know it :)
If you ever need to talk, you know where to find me!!

Wow. The church is beautiful and so BIG! I bet it makes you feel really small. It must have taken months & even years to build. :)
I've never seen Mary Poppins. :S
