All our practice the last four Saturdays, starting even before term began, was leading up to our first match of the season.And my team was not ready. ...hy did I volunteer to lead my high school’s debate club? It was more work on top of teaching History, and with no extra pay.My phone buzzed inside my purse. I opened it up and pulled out my iPhone. My sister had sent me a text. I guess she woke up and crawled out of my bed. She drank so much wine last night, so I wasn’t shocked she was just. I'd call her on her birthday. That Friday went by quickly. By early morning Saturday, I was shopping at the mall. I went to Victoria's Secret first for the bras. I bought 3 satin ones which were royal blue, white, and red. After that, I went to Macy's and bought the skirts, dresses, and shoes. I made sure the skirts weren't too short--just above knee length so they wouldn't violate the school dress code. The dresses weren't fancy but casual. The first one was a green sundress with a huge. Our choir directortold us a few days ago that we had invitations to sing that would take usalmost to the end of the year, which is six months away! When he lookedat me, I knew I would be dressing this way for a long time, which is whatmade up my mind for me.I was in the bath, ready to shave myself when mom walked in on me. Therewas no hiding the area I was getting ready to shave, since it was allsoapy. Without a word she held up a bag of ice, and I knew that she hadeither figured it out, or had. Ibegan to love the excitement and each new addition to me. The changescame so slowly and were subtle that I almost didn't notice. The peopleon the streets did, especially the young and old men, and even somewomen. At first I didn't think anything about since I was so confidentand secure spending so much time in the office environment with myfriends and coworkers but this was different, out in the worldobservations by interested people. I had to assess where I am, whereI've been and where do I.
