Chapter 6 – Dress Shopping
That last week of February, the area she lived in was pummeled with blizzard-like snowstorms.
On Tuesday, her school district had a two-hour delay in the morning, and had an early dismissal, in which the students would go início at one-thirty rather than two-twenty. Tuesday, though, was not the worst of the snowstorms to come. On Wednesday, school was cancelled. The area had received a few good inches over night that needed to be cleaned up in the morning. On Thursday, school was cancelled once again. Snow had not come over-night that time, but there was snow to come during the daytime that was supposed to be heavy. On Friday, school was cancelled yet again. Thus, there was a legendary occurrence of three snow days in a row, and, all in all, an accumulation of two feet of snow was produced. There was mais than two feet of snow in some areas, depending on the drift.
anastasia was glad for the unexpected five-day weekend, but overall, she was not happy. The days off for her were no fun. It involved shoveling the deep snow that the snow blower could not reach, and being yelled at por her mother once again. And it was on Friday when all the stress that she had been building up during the course of the past months came out in one, major flip-out. When her sister and her father thought it would be humorous to eat her lunch that she had left to cool on the table, anastasia over reacted and did a series of stupid, but slightly amusing, tantrums. Because of her freak-out, her mother took away her MP3 player from her.
On Saturday, she and her family finally went dress shopping for her Sweet Sixteen. They first traveled to the Palisades Mall an hora away to look for the perfect gown, but anastasia only tried on one that made her feel like a princess. But, unfortunately, this stunning dark rosa, -de-rosa dress was three hundred dollars, and was completely out of her family’s budget. This upset Anastasia, but they had to mover on.
After they left the Palisades, her family went to one last place—David’s Bridal. David’s Bridal was only about ten minutos away from her início in Middletown, instead of an hora away like the other mall was. There, she tried on mais dresses, and this time, she knew that either one of the two dresses that she liked the best was the one she knew she wanted to wear at her party. One was hot pink, one of the theme-colors of her event, and the other was blue and teal, as cores that contrasted her Sweet Sixteen’s rosa, -de-rosa and silver theme. They were both lovely ballroom dresses, and she could not decide between the two. At first, she liked the rosa, -de-rosa one better, for it was the color she had wanted all along. But at the same time, the blue one was quite flattering, according to the people who helped her choose, and the sparkles at the topo, início fit her well. Her father ended up taking a picture of her in each dress, and decided to go início for the day. The seguinte day, they would go back and she would make her final decision, and that time her grandmother would tag along as well to help make Anastasia’s decision.
So, on that Sunday, the family went back to David’s Bridal in the laranja County Plaza, and had anastasia choose her dress for the party that she was waiting all of her life for. In the end, everybody liked the elegant blue dress the best, and therefore, that was what anastasia chose to get in the end. And, she was very happy with her ultimate decision.

Hello! Here's a little poem I wrote a couple of months ago! Tell me what you think. :)
“Moon To My Night”
You are the moon to my night
A bright shining star
Your brilliance is light
And beautiful you are
You are the sun to my day
Like a bird you fly
I cannot stay away
I wouldn’t even try
You are the warmth to my summer
A flor that blossoms in the spring
My coração pounds like a drummer
When you start to sing
You are the first estrela to my night’s eve
On my coração you leave a shining mark
From now on I will forever believe
That you will always light my dark
“Moon To My Night”
You are the moon to my night
A bright shining star
Your brilliance is light
And beautiful you are
You are the sun to my day
Like a bird you fly
I cannot stay away
I wouldn’t even try
You are the warmth to my summer
A flor that blossoms in the spring
My coração pounds like a drummer
When you start to sing
You are the first estrela to my night’s eve
On my coração you leave a shining mark
From now on I will forever believe
That you will always light my dark
