Hi! It’s me! Lily!!!
And all the girls are over tonight!!!
We’re eating pizza and chocolate and watching anime and doing hair and nails, and, well… doing almost everything you’d expect girls to do! Unless you’re a silly-billy. Then we’re most decidedly NOT.
Crystal showed us her new song lyrics. They’re really good!!! But I’m a little worried they’re a bit too depressing. I mean, “I hate you don’t leave me” is pretty killer, but…. it’s pretty killer. If you know what I mean. I don’t want her to be something she’s not, but.. she also needs to write stuff that people can identify with. I’m sure some people can identify with that, but… enough?
Well… it’s really her band, anyway. I’m going off to college in a few months, and the other girls are mostly in it for her sake, so… if that’s what she wants to do, none of us are going to fight her too hard.
But… on the other hand, we can’t really play stuff we’re not feeling, y’know?
I’m encouraging Beth to write something, too. After all, if she’s going to sing it, she has to have some stuff she really feels too. She’s thinking of a song named “I want you to think I’m dumb”… that’s on the right track, I guess.
If I were to write a song for myself? “Memory Hole”.
Anyway, I don’t have any big plans for the weekend. Jack and I are going out, I’m pretty sure. We’re doing the band and probably church stuff. Oh! Joe and Anathema might go out tonight! I wonder how that will turn out. She has a day off today, though, so she’ll be leaving a little later.
He told me now that we have a pretty good police presence he might get called back from guarding duty. I guess that makes sense. I don’t think he focused on Anathema because he liked her – well, not just because he liked her… but she needed it a lot more than I did. I hope that’s calmed down now, a little, though. People do tend to move on quickly.
Oh… she’s actually a part of our girls’ night, until she leaves, anyway. I mean, she’s about as old as Yuki, give or take, and she’s here, so… why not. I told her not to give the girls lessons in things they shouldn’t have lessons in. She looked like she was going to be offended, then sighed. She could see why I’d think that.
“I’m just going to be one of the girls tonight”, she said.
That’s all we can ask of her.
She does have some really cool beauty tips, though. She gave Diana a makeover while showing all of us her tips and tricks, and you’ve never heard so much ooing and aahing. Maybe she should get back into the influencer game – for beauty! She does know a few things. Okay, a lot. And she dressed her up in a cute way too.
Diana looks like a totally different girl – and she didn’t overdo it either! She looks about five years older, but not in a bad way.
Even Yuki was taking notes. There are several different skin tones but everyone learned something useful.
She offered to show us how to, umm… wax some stuff. We politely declined. Maybe later. Hahah!!!
(I think she just got caught up in the excitement of being able to teach us stuff. She wasn’t being creepy! Promise! Maybe she’s turned over a new leaf but there’s still some cat-girl lurking inside! And maybe that would be good to know… someday!)
Anyway, I hear some giggling coming from behind me so maybe I should go see what’s so funny.
