So I've been in New Jersey this week and I'm staying until Sunday or Monday! Can I say it's awesome? I mean I'm sure I'm kinda biased b/c I absolutely love the North...esp the New England States. Idk...the water is better, the air is cleaner and idk it's just more my style. Where I'm at right now really reminds me of Chicago...only a little less city-esque. Everything is so green.
So get this...I haven't been to the beach all summer, being a resident of Florida..and the first time I do is in New Jersey! lol We went to the Jersey Shore all yesterday and I had a blast. There is no humidity up here, which is amazing. This means my hair is extremely happy, and that when I lay out in 90 degree weather, with the breeze it feels amazing. 90 in tampa= 110 degrees... 90 in new jersey= 80-85! So we layed out, swam in the ocean, which had amazing waves. Justin made a very not cool move and threw me into what could possibly be the largest wave I've seen in over 10 years...it was seriously never-ending and left an awesome burn up my nose and down my throat, yet still I had the best time ever. The water really wasn't that cold either. It was the best beach experience I've had in a while. I just wasn't sweating and getting a headache from the heat. Only, it didn't have that beach smell...I guess only Fl has that. That and you had to pay $3 to get on! I was like wha? You have to wear a little wristband too, like ur going into a club! After 5 Justin and I ate, crashed for a couple hours in his jeep, and woke up and hit the boardwalk with Rich, Jim, Jesse, Katyln, and Stacey. We played games and rode all the rides. Justin won me 2 huge stuffed animals. How they are gonna fit in the car on the way home? I have no idea! lol
We were playing only the best arcade game known to man, SkeeBall, of which I am the master, and after dropping a few quarters we decided to turn in our tickets. We had like 80 max...yet the lady wrote down we had 830! lol So we got some nifty handcuffs...hahaha...look there was nothing else to get!
Tomorrow we're going to Six Flags, and later in the week we are going to NYC, and all sorts of other stuff. This is an awesome break before going back to school. It'd be a perfect trip if I didn't have to drive 18 hours in a car being suffocated with cigarette smoke! Cough Cough...i have the black lung. At least Justin promised me he'd quit as soon as we get back. I guess I should've asked him too sooner.
Justin's family is really nice and chill. His dad reminds me of my mom and his mom reminds me more of my dad...only less military lol Too bad he has 2 cats. People...let me tell you i'm fighting allergies like there's no tomorrow...livin off the ben...that's way we call it on the streets...its' short for benadryll...that stuff knocks you on your ass...it's the pink pill yo!
Ok I must go now.
