Part 2: Southpark

This has nothing to do with the California adventure. I thought I'd write a follow-up to the previous entry, but now I don't feel like it. Instead, I'll just say that they lost my luggage when I finally got back to Seattle, but later they found it and delivered it to my door at 1 AM. I guess it had been chaotic since earlier in the week... bloody terrorists.

So I finally found one of those Southpark character creating thingies, and I'd been having fun with it. Later my sister and I went crazy with it. And now I will share my/our creations:

I actually first found a website that did the same thing, but the options were more limited. So this is what I came up with at the time:

After I found the better website, I found things more fitting, and this looks much more like me:

So then I started having fun. This guy is angry and rocking, so I named him Angry Punk Rocker:

And this is Slut HoBag:

EmoBoy, listening to wheaming (whining and screaming) music as usual:

EmoGirl, hurting alot, just like Hope:

The Dude from The Big Lebowski. I'm proud of this one:

Good little Christian Girl. Have a cookie.

Rich Kid, probably the next Donald Trump, judging by that hair:

the Lesbian, that shirt was made just for her:

the Gay Guy, saying as they all do in Southpark, "I'm thuper!"

the PunkAss. Now that I look, he might be British:

JapaneseGirl; OHAIIIYOOOOO!!!!!

GothGirl, I wish I could add combat KickAss boots:
And there you have it. I had my friends and family do the same, it's been fun times.

California, rest in peace: Part 1

Well, the two weeks are up. I expected them to fly fast when they were done, but it still surprises me to this day how fast these things can go. I'm in the San Diego airport right now, awaiting my flight back up to the northwest. I dont' know about my sentiments last time I was down here, but right now I'm rather sad to go. Partially because the fun was just getting started here, and partially cause I don't know what to look forward to when I come back down. Graham's gonna be gone for school come Monday--I dont' know what we're gonna do about food after then.

11:00. My flight doens't leave for another hour and 40 minutes. I've got a while to go.

California, overall, was a good investment. There was plenty of warm weather, lots of surfboards and floral garb, palm trees, beaches, tropical flowers, and spanish.

My first few days were a little tiring and boring. It was hard being the youngest--by far--for a while. I did get to walk around Del Mar a bit, see the Balboa Rose Garden (a total of twice), see movies, and make cookies. I also got to see my cousin Kate for a bit, but the poor girl was as shy as ever and we didn't get to interact much. I didn't get to see my youngest cousin at all. A few days later I got to see my favorite cousin, and from then on we were always hanging out together.

We had a multitude of adventures, incuding:

*Party on the bed with the animals
*unusual chocolates
*a second dose of Piratety Hot-goodness
*rocking out on a train like dorks
*being train-retards for missing our stop
*my first viewing of the british Pride and Prejudice
*chocolate over-marshmallowy rice crispi treats
*LOTS of home-made ice cream
*Card nerds at the cafe
*Food inspector (thief) Gillie
*Showing Kirsten the the weird side of Dog Breeding
*WAY too much sun and paying for it hours later by being on fire
*Vegetarian Zombies (Sooooyyyy... Soooyyyyyy...)
*Singing all kinds of wrong lyrics
*Being shocked into giggles by the aaaaassssscrrraaaack
*Mucho shopping-o
*I learned how to Smash!!!
*Learning what "Brownies From Da Hood" really means
*Ripping on each other's Moms (but not our real moms)
*The bathroom in which we frame old undergarments, trap men, have velveeta butts, and "Don't talk about toilets!"
*Learning that Pirates of the Pacific have cameras (my kind of camera, actually)
*Seeing Nautical Child Labor in action
*Watching Gregory Peck be CRAAAAZY!
*Our long talks of life, love, (nice) politics, and silliness

I'll miss the state, I'll miss the weather, I'll miss my other relatives, but most of all I think I'll miss my closest cousin. It's a shame we live so far away...

I think I'm gonna close this thing up and get myself a magazine or something before this laptop runs out of power. I'd like some time to listen to music on the plane. Maybe I should invest in an MP3 player...

Oh, and yeah, on the flight down here, there were some stuffed animal snakes. on the motherfuckin' plane.

Well, with luck, I'll be glad to go back home.
