it was a week of events...not to mention it was spring break
so i just got up...
spring break is at an end
and i must say, i'm rather satisfied
instead of initionally leaving tuesday...i slept in til two in the afternoon monday, so there was no way i could go to bed early (ten-ish) and get up early (five-ish) to begin the 16 hour treck to myrtle beach, south carolina...so we decided to leave at midnight that night..got to krystal's place around one and drove straight through 12:00am to 4:30pm
....all me yo, the entire shot!
i have to say it was rather rough, especially the four to fivein the morning gap..there was no one on the roads except the occasional semi..even they were sprawled out all along the road: exit raps, emergency parking, rest areas..totally and utterly packed with rigs, so after trying to distract myself from sleep with observations, i had krystal put in coheed so i could belt out all the lyrics to stay awake while she kept dozing in the passenger seat. that worked wonders and before i knew it, the sun was coming up just as we were hitting the mountains...and it was gorgeous! it had me awestruck and feeling more energized then ever
so we drove and drove and...drove
it wasn't bad agian til we reached south carolina cause we couldn't find the condo and i was getting frustrated and pissy really fast. but alas, we found it...and totally crashed
the next few days...were as warm as it was here
so i was fuckin pissed!
ha, i swear, EVERY time I go down there..the weather suddenly turns shitty
but it did warm up, and by thursday, we were laying on the beach smoking hookah
the blinding sun was richocheting off my sunglasses, the waves were rollings, our hair was blowing in the wind, my knees were bent at the cap, bouncing in time with my drumming bent arms while i jived on my beach towel to the sporting life blaring through obnoxiously sized headphones
yeah, you're jealous...
after that we walked up and down the strip, constantly getting hollered at...which of course, is nothing new to us ;-)..bought a few things and headed back to the condo to get ready for the club: Club Kryptonite
(you're suppose to read that with exagerrated emphasis to make an attempt to make it sound exotic and oh so intriguing...) turns out, it definitely was intriguing...
Raab and Don Vito from viva la bam were there...and we got to meet them
it was pretty cool haha
krystal was going bizerk when she found out they were there, and the vj said that people would be let in to hang out with them and what not...so she dragged me to the vip section to wait
but, being my natural nature...i could have given a flying fuck...the music was awesome and i just wanted to dance...
so we were smashed in around the vip section and i'm the only idiot in the mob dancing, but hell, i was there for a good time and so goddammit, i was having myself a good time! so there i was,loser me jamming in a cluster of eager fans, when in one swift movement, krystal grabs my arm, spins me around, pulls me up some stairs as i turn my head over my shoulder just in time to see the burgundy velvet rope latch down behind me and the thick white hand of the bouncer resume its place on his opposing biscep.
sweet!
so ms. giddy is all googly eyed because Raab Himself is just to her right...within, gasp! touching distance omgomgomgomgomg....and all i can do is resume my dancing of which was so rudely interrupted...haha
raab, all his friends and don vito (who was already smashed and practically pashed out) were literally surrounding me...and i'm just dancing
...it was fantastic
krystal's dream came true and i got my good time
but, even as time wore on, after hours of photos and autographs
...krystal was the typical fan...just GUSHING
raab was standing right next to her, so they chit-chatted for a moment(more like droning: i'm such a huge fan! you're the hottest of them all! (haha, that one was my favorite)) and when they stopped...i leaned in for a question "so...let me get this straight. you're in a dance club...but you're not dancing?" hahahaha, of all the things i could have asked him...ah well
i just continued with that i bet he does it all the time...goes to dance clubs, and never dances...and he explained how he wasn't a good dancer. i said nonsense, everyone can bust a move...so lets see it. he then stated (surprise surprise) that he didn't have anyone to dance with..so krystal and i (surprise surprise) started dancing and he joined in....hahaha
i have to admit, that was pretty fun
so after explaining meeting a minut celebrity...where am i suppose to go from there? nothing could possibly be any more exciting then that.
and you're right...
we went to a show, le grande cirque which was again, awesome...i saw it when i went with alex over the summer...but there was new stuff so it was sweet
it's just like cirque de soleil on tv...
it's amazing...acrobats, contortionists, elaborate costumes donned by drop dead gorgeous asians
i took advantage of a classic spring break cliche, which is fine by me, because i love cliches...i got my navel pierced
we ate, slept, laughed and farted
oh, how could i forget...we concluded our last night with a trip to thee gentlemen's club
hell yes, we went to a strip joint...just because
it just so happen to be early and on the way back to the condo hahaha
but it wasn't bad...they couldn't get naked. they weren't allowed to take off their bottoms and they had to wear pasties...i just wanted to go to learn a few moves, which i did...
we actually learned of a few interesting legalities while we were there: hookah is illegal in the state of south carolina (according to some shop owners who tried to sell them and got them repoed)..i was looking for tobacco since it's so cheap down there...it is also illegal to give permenant tattoos for money, so that explains all the fucking henna...there was something else, but i can't remember...it was just tidbits of interesting information
the next morning we cleaned up the condo and headed out....i ended up driving the whole 16 hours, straight through 3:30pm to 7:14am again..which was fine..i just hate ohio even more then i initially did
fucking long ass state
...so is west virgina
but we made it back, which is oh so fortunate for you...because had i not, the production of this monstrosity would not have been made possible
