In which I get my hair cut...

This actually happened quite some time ago but I thought I would still post about it because I haven't had my hair so short since I was a little girl. 

 

Outings with Friends

 

I have had a few opportunities to go out with some of the girls I've met here in St. Louis. One day Emily, Selia, and I went to the London Tea Room. We had a tea party with a matching glass tea set and yummy pastries. I think we sat there talking for almost three hours. Selia is a really fun person and I look forward to getting to know her better. 

Sephora and I went to Six Flags with another girl (I forgot her name). It is a very large amusement park. We rode lots of roller coasters and walked around seeing the sites. We ate at a very expensive restaurant inside the park. 

St. Louis offers quite a few free museums within a few miles of where I live. Obed took me to the art museum in Forest park. It was really fun walking through the museum and looking at the different styles of art. We also went outside and walked around the park and took photos of each other. 

Obed is a really sweet friend. We have also been exercising together sometimes.

One of my first Sundays in St. Louis, Sephora and I went to Subway to get sandwiches and then we went to a park near her home. We talked a lot and walked around. It is a beautiful area.
