Hello and good evening, bitches! Man, I don't know where to start, I guess the beginning would be a good place.
Wednesday, January 25, at around 11pm, Daisy, Dayana, and myself set off on an 11 hour journey to McDonough, Georgia to visit our boy MVP (known to most as Bank$). The trip up was CRAZY. We saw a UFO (forreal!!) and it kicked off the weirdest road trip I have ever had. First of all, Daisy and I spot a sign that says "zero tolerance, drug check point ahead" WHAT?!?! So, we get off on the nearest exit as a panicked Dayana calls Bank$ to see if he has any idea what we can do, and we are all real nervous. To make a long story short, we got back on the highway and avoided the drug point! WOOHOO. Then, for like, 70 miles, this freak in a van followed us flashing his lights. UGH! SCARY!Then he gave up.. or so we thought. We exit to go to a gas station and the person in front of us hits their breaks HARD, and guess who it is.. YUP! THE FREAK IN THE VAN!!! So pretty much we hall ass, and he never catches back up (although we had a few scares!) lol. After that (well, what I can remember) it was pretty smooth sailing.. er.. driving alllll the way to McDonough, GA!
We arrive at Hassan's, and we all sit around and chat until he has to head over to the venue for pre-show stuff, we go get food then come back and get ready for the shizzow! While the girls take showers, I sit and watch a bunch of the wrestling DVDs Hassan has (mostly CCW shows) and I entertained myself for a while with that. Before we know it, it is time to head over to the venue (which is SOOO close to the apartment, you can walk there.. of course, WE didn't walk there lol). It was COLD outside. Not cool.
Not knowing what MVP comes out to, we anxiously awaited before each match to see if our boy was going to pop out of those curtains. When he finally did it kind of took us a minute to realize who it was! MAJOR DIFFERENCE! It took every ounce of us not so scream and yell at the top of our lungs. We are just SO proud. We also get the pleasure of seeing Frankie Capone, Gymini/Mike and Todd Shane, Ron Niemi, and our hometown boy Ryan O'Reilly!!! I marked out extremely hard for Ryan cause he's simply one of the coolest people on the planet. He looks CRAZY good, and his wrestling is fucking awesome. I am so excited for him! We also got a chance to see some new faces, like MIKE KNOX (next big thing, mark my words), the Freakin Deacon (yes, Willow??), and Mike Taylor (HOLY SHIT! lol). I was just so impressed by everything and everyone. Great show!!!
We get back to the apartment and eventually decide to say in for the night. Hassan and Daisy run to get some food as Dayana and I entertain ourselves doing real world style confessionals to the video camera (these were then recorded over so they will never be seen! ha!). They get back, we eat and watch some Aqua Teen Hunger Force, and just chill. Good times, of course!
Friday we wake up around 9something. Hassan goes off to do his thang and we take showers and head over to ATL and the Underground mall. We get something to eat there and walk around, Daisy surprises Dayana and myself with these chinese symbol bracelets that mean luck (and I absolutely love it!) and we hit up this quilt museum which was pretty interesting and I came across this scribe that had a quote about persistence that I just had to get for Hassan. After that we hit up the Coke museum which was a blast. Took lots of pictures, met a soda jerk, and tasted drinks from all over the world (I believe it is Italy who has the drink that has GRAPEFRUIT SKIN in it.. NASTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!). After a long day at the mall, we head back to McDonough. We decide to pop in the Chris Benoit DVD while waiting for Hassan to return home. He gets there, we go get something to eat, go say hello to Ryan and met the man who was instantly over with the girls, Mike Knox. He was over with us wrestling wise (especially Dayana) before we met him, but the moment we were all introduced.. I don't think he could be any more over with us. He is just one of those people. We all chat a bit then we all leave (it was a quick hello because it was fucking FREEZING out). Then we all go pick up some smirnoff and head back to the apartment. We all chill and drink and stuff, and it ends up being a long night for Hassan and myself who stayed up until 4 in the morning just talking shit (wrestling, football, etc..)
Woke up at almost 1 in the afternoon the next day. Not a good thing considering we were supposed to be leaving and leaving so late would leave us driving through the night (UGH)
and it didn't take long to decide we weren't ready to go home just yet, so we decided to forget about the Royal Rumble and stay. This gave us the chance to visit Stone Mountain. So after meeting BILL DEMOTT, we head there. I am extremely afraid of heights so I wasn't exactly excited to be going way up on top of a mountain, especially when the way up is this little tram stuffed with people. I WAS SOOOOO SCARED. We make it up and the only thing I thought about was just concurring my fear of heights temporarily and to look over the edge of this bitch. So, we all walked around and WOW what a view! I don't think I have ever seen anything so beautiful, yall! We stop and take a seat, and I get up and decide to walk down to the little fence and look over that edge. I was sooooo nervous, but I did it and was proud of myself. Then I went back and got the video camera so when I looked down, it was on camera. Not long later we decided to aboard the tram from hell and journey back down to earth. Mr. Funny was standing in front of us this time and kept making jokes about the tram and it falling and ha ha, not funny. We survived that whole thing and then went to see if this boat ride thing was open. It wasn't so we just spent some time by the lake. Beautiful. After Stone Mountain we again made our way back to McDonough and got ready to go out to one of three places there is to go in this down, Double D's. We almost couldn't get in because it is only 18 and up on Thursday and Friday.. but thanks to the Freakin Deacon, we got hooked up. We danced the night away, had a fucking amazing time, headed back home, and passed out.
Woke up Sunday afternoon around 12 and had no choice but to leave this time. It was a sad goodbye, and a long trip home, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. What an amazing vacation. Thanks to my girls, and of course our boy Hassan, I truly had the time of my life and am now head over heals in love with McDonough, GA.
Now, by the way I updated, it looks like nothing funny/crazy stuff happened on the trip. PUUUHLEZE! I saved the funny stuff and craziness for last! And I am going to list it randomly as I remember it.

That's all I can think of right now but WOW what a trip.
So what was it like to come of the best 4 days of my life and be instantly thrown back into reality?? HORRIBLE. I started school Monday and since has had quite the bad luck streak. School has been fine, just shit has been hectic. Ehh, it will get better, I know it will. All I have to say at this point is thank god for Derik cause he has been my support system lately. So, I wont go into detail about that crap, but I will talk about the great 'girls night out' I had last night with *LILLY* and Liz.
I always see Liz but haven't seen Lilly in forever so that itself was exciting. As I right this part I am going to pull stuff from Lizzy's update on her myspace so I don't have to retype it cause I have t study for a test I have tomorrow. Yeah. First we went to pick up Lilly and made a wrong turn and saw this cute ass dog that looks like Lizzy's dog Buster, so we are yelling and stuff to the dog and then the owner comes outside and Lizzy's car wouldn't reverse so we were cracking up and felt so dumb haha. So then we get Lilly and we went out to eat at Mineo's where they have a jukebox which was hella awesome! We must have bought like, 12 songs. haha. We played everything from Sheryl Crow, to Elton John, to N'Sync, and some Grease Soundtrack. GREAT TIMES. Then we left Mineo's and went to Hard Rock where we danced our booties off for a few hours before we got asked to leave for being in an area where a bar was 200 feet away. WHATEVER. Here is what Liz had to say about that: "Finally leave for the Hardrock, arrive, get to park in the boondocks, get some exercise. Get to our DJ!!! This lanky weird guy, that does this Follow the Leader dance that makes me crack up a lot. So the three of us are having a blast, dancing, acting crazy for a loooonng tiimme. Cracking up at all the crazy old people around us that are dancing just as weird as us. Just enjoying the atmosphere. ^_ We go to Paradise, and find some cowboy guy singing the blues, so Lilly and I start do-si-doing. hahahahaahaha hahahahahaha. why not? WE GO BACK TO FIND THAT OUR DJ WAS REPLACED BY A BAND!! so this was even cooler, so we shake our booties some more. And nobody will believe this. But this fascist decides to come and ID us. This Fascist that had no neck, and some weirdass mustache-overgrown-hitler thing going on. Trying to tell us that you had to be 21+ because of the bar 200 feet away. The bar we didn't even glance at the whole 3 hours we were dancing. Fucking douche bag. Suck it."
Then I called up little Derik and he met us at the Dania Pier. One again from Lizzy's update: "So then we decide to go to the pier, and on the way there, I think the funniest thing that's ever happened to me happened. So I pretty much live in my car. Get over it. I have towels, a change of clothes, books, a tooth brush, and a bikini. Megan's sitting in the backseat with all of this crap, and she discovers my bottoms, and this bitch is holding them up to this crazy old man next to us at a light. The light turns green, I rush off, the man is in close pursuit..... Meg holds them up once again to "this man..." and it turns into a cop. Great. Good job dumb ass. So she gives them to Lilly who's already playing with my hard-earned spatula and whisk, and Lilly's waving them like a flag out the window, and this fuckin pervert, SWERVES over, grabs hold of the bottoms, yanks, GETS them, and then drives off......" YEAH THAT SHIT WAS HYSTERICAL!!!!! So we meet Derik at the pier and we all talk shit and Liz of course wants to do some prank calling. It was pretty funny.
The night ended with us driving up next to some guys, getting their number, and Liz being WAY obsessed with the kid, Drew. He's actually pretty hott. But yeeeaahh. That's all you, Liz! lol.
Today I didn't wake up until 2:30, and then Chris called me at around 3:30 and wanted to hang out so OF COURSE I did=) That was a greeeeaaattt time, then I came home for them game! Great story for the Steelers. It didn't matter to me who won, I just wanted to see a good game, and I wasn't disappointed!
Well, I have gotta study!!!!!!!!! BUHBYE.
