Ups And Downs... Mostly Ups

Today was a day of ups and downs. First thing in the morning, my mom and I head down to Barstow to go to the DMV to hopefully get me an ID card and a permit. Up #1: The line was super short! We were standing in it far probably about 15 minuets! Up #2: I passed my permit test!!! I can now legally drive so long as my parent is in the car! Down side to that up: I can use it for a week then I'm leaving and cant use it anymore...

So after that we went to US Bank to open up a bank account so that I can actually have money while I'm in college. Kind of an important thing... That's when down #1 reared its ugly head: my permit doesn't count as a legal ID, which I need to open an account... So no bank account until after the DMV mails me my ID, which isn't likely to be till after I'm in Utah... Great.

Then it was off to the dentists office because my mom and I both had appointments. Up #3: The holes in my jaw that my wisdom teeth left are healing up terrifically! Down #2: I had to sit in the waiting room for an hour and a half before my moms appointment was finally over!

And that leads me straight into down #3: I was an hour late for the screening of the Drum Corps International Preliminary Championships! Though I guess that makes up #4 the fact that I got to see the last three hours of said DCI competition... Which was amazing! I really don't know why more people don't watch these things, because there intense, entertaining, and just plain incredible! They do some of the coolest things! And it makes me upset when people say that marching band isn't a sport. Id like to see you try it!

Any who, the last and most trivial down of the day was that one of my favorite reality TV shows took a turn for the wort tonight and now promises to be highly annoying. So I guess that over all, today was a pretty awesome day, despite all the little bumps. The scariest part though, is that I only have ONE WEEK before I'm off to BYU!!! =O
