pre-festival -- Have I drunk enough water today? How much water is enough water? Aren't we in a drought? Wait, but my phone isn't charged. Don't let Dad know your phone isn't charged. AIRPLANE MODE, NOW. Ok, water, check; phone, check. Erm, I don't think I can wear this new Hermes bangle? Mom? IT'S RAINING?! I don't have a raincoat. Ok, ok, I'll wear my Mt. Gay hat .. but what if I lose it? DON'T LOSE IT. Is my mascara going to run? F it. Let's go. Let's party. I want you and you and you in my Snapchat Story. This selfie lasts for 24 hours, MAKE IT GOOD LADIES. Yeeeeessss.
en route to festival -- It stopped raining. Did it really stop raining? My phone's at 89%. That's really good, if I do say so myself. Let's go. We're walking, we're talking. I LOVE YOUR OVERALLS. Ah, do you think she'll be my friend? Maybe fate will bring us back together later. Yes, fate. This day relies on fate. Fate that includes me not dying, or crying, or peeing my pants. I JUST LOVE ALL THESE PEOPLE SO MUCH. Either I'm crying or it's raining again.
at festival -- Lines, I hate lines. Never mind, this line was deceptively short. I'M IN. I'M HERE. I'VE MADE IT. I HAVE ARRIVED. Soooooo where do we go? I'll just follow. I can be a follower today, that's fine. Oh, friends! Hugs!! Selfies!!! Take our picture, pleeease. Do I look ok? Does my hair look ok? Did my mascara run? Why won't my Snapchat post? Jumping, I'm jumping now. Half laughing half crying. Yes, Dad, I'm alive. Ok. Sitting, I'm sitting now. Wow, I'm tired. Music?! More friends!!! Pictures!!! Let's switch sunglasses!!! I love your jean shorts!!! This band is my fave too!!! Oh, now you're on his shoulders. Wow. PICTURES, SO MANY PICTURES. Why won't my Snapchat post? Ugggghhh. Favorite song!! Where are all my friends? Friends!! Pictures!! Jumping?! Cold. I'm cold. Why won't my Snapchat post? Food?! Tacos. Water? Water. Yes, Dad, I'm alive. Friends? Friends!!! Pictures. Hugging. Why won't my Snapchat post? Dancing. Crying. Again, I'm crying again. Pictures of me crying. It's dark. I'm cold. Can you lend me your sweatshirt? I'm gonna sit down. Why won't my Snapchat post? PHONE'S DEAD. Ok, now friends? JK, can't find friends with a dead phone! Let's try anyway! Oh, strangers. You're not my friends. Byeeeee. FRIENDS. Friends!! Time to go. Let's go. Run. We're leaving. Leaving, now. Leave. Just leave. Goodbye.
post-festival -- FINALLY, I can get my Snapchats to post!! Oh, my phone's dead. Home, I want to be home NOW! Wait, but also -- Yes, Dad, I'm alive. Ok. Water, lots of water. Um, I skinned my knee. Disinfectant please!! Should I shower? I'm sooo tireddd. I think facewipes are enough right now. I need more water. CLEAN UNDERWEAR. What a luxury. A REAL TOILET. America, man. MY PHONE'S ALIVE. MY SNAPCHATS POSTED. Pictures. 203 pictures. What should I post? Ok, which filter? Caption?!! Where's the geotag!! THIS PIC IS GETTING SO MANY LIKES. Look at this filter! Should I post tomorrow?
