Spirit Week!



This week at school has been Spirit Week. I absolutely love Spirit Week because you can dress all crazy without looking like a dork. The week before Spirit Week, the student announcers read the days over the PA system. They said:

Monday is country club day. Wear your plaid and preppy clothes.
Tuesday is tye-dye day.
Wednesday is wild west day. Wear your cowboy boots and flannel.
Thursday is senior citizen day. Wear your grandparents clothes.
Friday is super spunky spartan spirit day. Wear your double blue and white.

These days sounded really cool. On Sunday, I went to the thrift store and got some grandma clothes. I was so excited to dress up for spirit week! Monday morning I was in a frazzle. I had a hard time deciding what to wear, but finally I decided. I wore a pink and green argyle polo with white capris. For the final touch, I put a sweater around and tied it for a preppy look. When I got to school, I was shocked to see that almost no one had dressed up. Well at least a few of my friends dressed up so I wasn't alone. The next day, Tuesday, I knew exactly what I was going to wear! I wore a tye-dye shirt, a tye-dye bandanna with some tye-dye knee high socks. I must say, a lot more people dressed up and I was pleasantly surprised! I think our school should have tye-dye day more often because it looks so cool. Wednesday was more of a challenge. I decided to wear a long sleeve plaid shirt with the sleeves rolled up. I found an old white bandanna which I tied around my neck for a “country-ish” look. Unfortunately, I don't have cowboy boots because that would've looked super! Thursday was senior citizen day! I thought it was a riot to see kids dressed up as grandmas and grandpas! I wore a sweatshirt with a teddy bear on it, just like something my grandma would wear! I also wore a pair of “velvet” sweats to make the outfits even more granny like.

Friday is double blue and white day! I cannot wait to wear all my blue and white clothing! It will be nice seeing all the students in their spartan spirit gear. Spirit Week has been a blast, I'm sad its almost over but I'm already planning next years outfit!

  1. I like your blog Bridget! I would have to agree, spirt week was a lot of fun! I was also surprised a lot of people didn't dress up either.
