Mandarins . . . Fruit of the gods

Hello!

My name is Sarah Zora, and I am the other half of "Matt and Sarah's Weekly Wednesday Writings". Matt was right in his earlier post, we are rather freakishly alike and I don't mind having my last name posted. :)

So, Matt and I decided last night that we should write down everything we talk about on Wednesday nights because . . . well, we have some interesting conversations. Also, I personally think it will be cool to look back later on at what we talk about. I didn't think Matt would start the blog that night, but he did, and here I am. Anyway, about last night . . .

We started off the evening by going to Safeway for some food. I personally think that going to Safeway at 9:00 at night is super fun, but then again I have no life. Matt and I go to safeway often on Wednesday nights and I'm sure the clerk who is ALWAYS there thinks we are freaks. I can't say that I blame her. We usually buy really weird stuff like breath mints and mandarins. We also have odd conversations or look for the lowest unit prices of non-perishable goods, which can't help things. As we were passing the ice cream case we decided to buy a new flavor of Ben and Jerry's next week. I'm pysched.

Hmmm . . . So, while we were at Safeway, Matt told me that he had told his voice teacher he was hesitant to spend time with me. At first I was a little unsure of how to take it, but he explained a little more and I wasn't mad. I wasn't really mad to begin with, just curious by what he had meant. I've been trying really hard lately not to get prematurely angry or defensive because while I'm pretty controlled most of the time, sometimes it does happen.

So, while eating some delicious goodies from safeway, we talked about people who are elitist and how uppity this year's freashman are. I felt immensly vindicated afterwards and then the topic of conversation turned to jean buying. After that, we were planning to go to Matt's car to listen to his ipod, but the minute we stepped outside, we were inspired to take a walk.

It was an absolutly magnificant night. The moon was so bright the mountains were clear like they are right before dawn. Soooooooo pretty. It was almost the best thing ever. You just can't fight the moonlight. On our walk, we practiced sliding on the streets because there weren't any cars, though Matt totally schooled me because his shoes were better . *sniff* Then, we practiced skipping really high and silent walking/running like spies. It was very fun, but in the end we had to go home because our parents would worry.

All in all, last night's conversation was not nearly as "deep" as our usual ones, but I had a great time. When I got home, I was in a giddy, almost high mood which I can almost describe as being totally happy, despite the fact I still had to finish a lot of homework. The again, Wednesday nights have been very happy lately.

Oh! I almost forgot. Kudos to Matt for:

-his excellent science fair project idea.It sounds amazing! I'm very interested to see how it turns out.
-Tom Cruise-like sliding skills
-taking a walk with me at night (because night walks are the best thing EVER!!!!)
