Oh yeah, I completely forgot to post about my vacation when I got back. I will now do that!
(yes I'm aware that I start all paragraphs with "so")
So I've been playing Guild Wars for about 3 years now and in this game you obviously have guilds, which are groups of players. I've been in the same guild since the very beginning and this guild of ours (Black Rose Assassins [BRA]) has had the same group of about 9 core members since the very beginning. Over the years we've developed some good friendships and I now trust them as some of my good friends. About a year and a half ago in December I visited two of them when I was down in Vegas and we all had a really fun time. So we've all decided to put on a big get together this summer. We're meeting up in Niagara Falls since two of the guild members live there already and two others live pretty close to there.
So we're all meeting up there. Two of us are coming from Vegas, one is coming from Denver, and I am coming from here obviously. It's going to be from June 20th to June 24th over that weekend, and we're going to go to Canada's Wonderland which is this huge Six Flags-esque theme park. We'll also go camping, so we can have time to hang out and shoot the shit.
So in order for me to get there, plane tickets are around $600 after tax, and I say fuck that shit! For the longest time I was under the impression that I wasn't going to be able to go, but then I checked bus tickets there and it was around $250 after tax, so I researched more and a train ticket was only about $350 after taxes, so I decided to bite the bullet and buy the train tickets. The trip is about 3 days, but I get to ride on a train, which is something I've never done but always wanted to do. I think it will be a good time for me to relax and sort of reflect on life. I might even try to write on the trip! I think the whole vacation is just going to be really fun and great to cap off the end of my college career.
So while I'm in Canada, I need to indulge in all of the Canadian-exclusive items such as all-dressed chips and Tim Horton's coffee. I'm going to make a extensive list of all the shit I have to try and then make sure I try all of it. That's about it for the vacation though, I think it will be good times!
P.S. Jason I watched the first episode of Twin Peaks season 2 last night and it fucked my mind. I couldn't really follow half of the shit that happened. Will shit get easier to understand or do I need to watch the first episode again? Oh, and wtf happened to season one of twin peaks?!
