It seems like a day out isn't complete without blisters the size of Alaska on my heels.
It comes with the territory I guess.
Especially since I wasn't wearing socks.
My bad.
At least I looked nice, even while limping.

My mom had also been talking about getting me a new pair of shoes. Specifically, a pair of chucks.
For those of you that don't know what chucks are, you're losers.
I'm kidding. Most people go, "What the frick are chucks?"

I know they're named after Chuck Taylor. Give me credit for that at least.
Their brand is probably more recognized by ya'll, Converse.
These shoes are not cheap by any means. A pair of high tops will run you $60.
I didn't get high tops though. Instead, I got the ones that normal people wear.

I was so excited to get my new shoes, I did what any sensible teenager would do. I wore them out of the store.
I walked down to Hot Topic, which is where the title of this post comes into play.
I went to Hot Topic with the goal of getting Drew a spontaneous present. Just for the heck of it, ya know?
What, do people not usually do that?
Huh. Guess I'm weird.
Anyway, I was in a hurry, so I ran through all the clearance shirts, and there was nothing. Then I noticed the chain wallets.
I thought I'd look really quick, since I know he likes chain wallets. I knew he already had one, but... this one would be special? I think? That was my logic at least.
I was about to grab a Transformers wallet and pay when I noticed a Zelda wallet. Zelda's this video game that Drew talks about from time to time.
I thought eh, why not? Picked it up, paid (TWENTY BUCKS), and then left the store.
Since it wasn't a surprise present or anything, I let him know what I get.
He got SO EXCITED. Apparently that wallet was the exact one he had been eyeing for himself the last time he was in Hot Topic.
Am I good or what?

Those of you that know Zelda might think that wallet's cool. For those of you that don't, you probably went "Hey a picture, okay moving on."
Which is fine. I'm not that impressed either. If that picture was on your blog, I'd probably skim past it.
Shh, I didn't say that.
After my awesome choice of gift, we went to Walmart to exchange some things before the movie started down the street.
I started to notice my foot sticking to the ground when I walked.
And then, I lifted up my foot.
I STEPPED IN GUM.
My BRAND NEW SHOES, and I STEP in some nasty person's GUM.
I hate people that spit out their gum. How about you put it in it's wrapper, or throw it in a trash can, or CHOKE YOURSELF WITH IT?
Now I have to take a toothpick to the bottom of my expensive shoes because someone can't dispose of their gum properly.
I hate people.
Once at the movie, I got super excited during the previews.
I even took a picture.
Shut up, I know they tell you not to use your phone. This was an emergency.

It was beautiful on the big screen. Stunning, amazing, marvelous, fantastic.
That was my Sunday.
I spent Sunday night looking through Twilight merch. My friend Anne wanted to get me a birthday gift.
I finally settled on a Twilight backpack. With school coming up, a new backpack would be nice.
Plus, it's cuuuuuuute.
Anyway, I should get to bed. I'm writing this in advance, and it's 1:30.

I accidentally posted something meant for tomorrow today. I deleted it, so just comment it tomorrow! But still comment this!

I've actually been thinking about getting a pair of Chucks myself.
I had a mom come into our center last week, because she and her daughter had been fighting over the ones that lace all the way up to the knee. They are contentious!
I don't like chucks. they don't go good with my body shape.
Yeah, I just found this nasty blister on the left inside of the second toe on my right foot. It feels so awkward. =/
I love the Chucks, and I love your hair too. Boo for stepping on gum.
Actually, your hair rocks. I love when I pick something out for the hubster all by myself and he absolutely loves it!
I can't wait to see New Moon! Eeeeek!
AHHH! CUTE CHUCKS!! I really want a pair right now-- I think I'm going to ask for a pair of black hightops for my birthday. We're just gonna have to wait and see, aahah..
And poor you and that stupid carpal tunnel!! :( That sucks.
NEW MOON, NEW MOON, NEW MOOOOON. ahahha. I WANNA SEE IT! Are you going to be going to the premiere? Have you read the books??
Also, I was hunting around for a bloggers book review site but CAN'T FIND ONE. Pweeasee share your wealth with me! :) I would really appreciate it and aHEM to use my stupid newly gotten power I just got an award. heheh.

I just bought H a pair of Chucks. She wanted them so bad so I got them for school.
Stepping in gum SUCKS big time!!
Wow.... can't believe that Converse is back in syle. I guess I'm showing my age. I'm not crazy about the 80s style (I was there- I remember). But enjoy your shoes. Good job on the wallet! Glad that he likes it.
Glad he likes the wallet! I think it is very nice to buy spontaneous presents, I do it too. I guess we're weird... lol
I had a pair of converse back in the 80s I think... lol I like the style but I'm more of a simple Nike person myself when it comes to tennis shoes. It sucks that you stepped in gum while wearing them! I hate hate hate when people don't throw it away in a trash can and then it is on the ground of people to step in. >< Grr!
Good going on the BF gift! Who does not know that Chucks are Converse?!! Okay I admit I don't own any REAL chucks by Converse. The Chucks I have are from Pay Less and Target but are way cool and just as comfy as Converses. Plus I was able to get 3 pairs for the price of 1. I am happy I will show them off once I wear shoes again. It is summer, only flip flops dahling!LOL
I got a pair of the hitops for a show I was in once. I found them too much trouble to be worth (like putting them on and taking them off and stuff). My little bro has had a couple of pairs. I can completely sympathize with the blisters thing though...
You're so pretty!
I can't believe you stepped in gum. The only thing worse is stepping in poo.
