VEGAS!
Yay! We're going to Vegas tomorrow! But before that, we gotta make this huge detour to Cabazon to pick up my brand new pea coat! ...So what happened was today, we went to Camillo. The plan was to go shopping, then visit my Aunt Kathy and drop off presents for my cousins, Evelyn and Brandon. I've been on this quest looking for the perfect coat. The only ones I've really liked was J. Crews Modern Pea Coat, which is $168. I've seen others that I was okay with, like from Banana Republic and Gap, but nothing that really caught my eye. They were significantly cheaper though ($70-$130). Okay, so back to present times... we went to Brooks Brothers, and that is where I found the perfect pea coat! Okay, so it wasn't "perfect"... just sounds better. It's just a classic pea coat, which is what I was looking for. Only so many places make nice ones, and they're expensive. This one was originally $200, and that's the outlet's price, but it was on sale for $99!... and fifty cents. =P The smallest they had was a small, which ended up too big for me. I was bummed, and we left. Couple stores later, I realized what a good deal (and a good coat) that was, so we went back. We asked for an extra-small. She called around, and Cabazon was the only place that had it. She asked them to put it on hold for us, but then told us that prices are changing tomorrow, and the coat might go up in price. So, she told me that I could buy it now to ensure the price, then pick it up whenever. We said Friday, but in the end, decided that we'll just make that extra detour just for the jacket. (Thanks Jonathan!... I love you!)
What a long story... just for a coat, huh? Well, it's a very important coat. =P Whatever. So besides a sweater I got (which is just a whatever sweater to me), that's the only thing I bought today. The outlet malls just didn't have much. BCBG outlet had an awesome sale though, in case you'll be heading out there. Other then that, there wasn't much. Sucky. Well, hopefully there will be better shopping in Vegas!
My mom's not too happy that I'm going to Vegas. I think she's afraid that I'll become an addicted gambler and an alcoholic. I mentioned to her that Uncle Charles gave me wine today, and she wasn't too happy. She starts going off about my dad having liver problems and that I prolly do too and I shouldn't drink. She makes one drink sound like a HUGE deal! So then, I reply (keep in mind that I've never told my parents I drank), "I just drink for fun. I don't drink a lot!". Then she mumbles to me, "Yeah, I knew that you had to have drank" (in that voice like justifying to herself that she knew all along). So maybe I should've kept my mouth shut, cuz she'll just worry more now. Oh well. But I did tell her that she needs to not worry and trust that she raised me well. She said, "Yeah, you're okay cuz I'm around. What will happen when I'm not". I explained to her that she just has to trust herself that she raised me well enough to take care of myself. And that even though she's not around, her words and teaching will always be with me (whether I like it or not). She then gave me money and said that she doesn't like me going, but knows that I need money in order to go... "I'm giving you money cuz you'll need it, and not saying that I support you going to Vegas". She's cute. She also wanted to have breakfast with Jonathan and I tomorrow, so we'll do that before we leave. It'll be an early morning!
