It’s A Coup D'état, Which is French for Coup D'état

Happy Easter y’all! Actually, in all honesty it hasn’t really been the greatest of Easters. It’s the first Easter me, Carlin, and Kyle have spent away from our families, so it’s been kind of a bummer of a holiday. It actually hasn’t even felt like Easter. It’s pretty empty up here since most kids went home for the weekend.

I did wake up with a nice surprise though. Carlin secretly bought me an Easter basket. Well, actually it was a plastic beach pail, so more like an Easter bucket. She had bought kites, glow sticks, plastic dinosaurs and fish, and a stuffed sheep at the dollar store. She also got us jellybeans, chocolate bunnies, marshmallow eggs, and Peeps. How she managed to buy so much without me knowing, I do not know.

We went to the store yesterday to buy ink and candy to make us feel better. I bought myself a marshmallow bunny and some caramel eggs. I also got a huge bag of gummy worms to eat during finals. While at the store, some creepy old guy tried to buy me candy. Me and Carlin tried to avoid him for the rest of the time, but he would not leave the candy aisle. It was so awkward.

We spent the day doing homework. I have an essay I’m working on and my sewing project. Carlin had to watch Thelma and Louise for her film class, so I got to see it too. It was actually pretty good. Right now we’re taking a break and watching Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Last night we watched Prince Caspian. It’s funny because the actor playing Caspian loses his Spanish accent in the third movie.

I sort of had a Easter dinner with Kyle since Carlin had to work on her graphic novel for class. They had turkey and potatoes, which were alright I guess. There was also deviled eggs, which were nowhere near as good as the ones we make at home. There was no oregano and they dyed the white parts, which made them taste funny. I’m so ready to have decent food for once.
