finally an update
here is my first update of the second semester of my second year at college. woooo. so bryan's off to washington d.c. for this huge bush protest. i know i shouldn't be mad, but i guess i would have wanted to go too. bah, nevermind it's not worth getting into on the silly little internet and i will have fun things to do this weekend too. today's just gonna suck with my, you know, 6 freaking hours of class in the same room. but aside from that i get to go to see of montreal on saturday and hopefully find something fun to do on friday night. blah. let me just say being awake at 10 am when you don't have class til 1:30 is not fun.
hmmm. anyway. bryan and i went to disneyland last weekend! well we were planning on going to CA Adventure, but i had bought the tickets from katie (thank you katie :)!!) and i guess you can only go to each park once per ticket, SOOOO we turned around and went to disneyland instead. it turned out very well. we went on whinnie the pooh first, which made me really happy cause i had never gotten to go on before. then onto splash mountain. the picture was really funny cause bryan looked absolutely terrified like OH GOD. OH GOD. OH GOD. and im just like eeeeeeeee smiling. if that makes sense....haha. moving on! tried to go on space mountain, but after waiting an hour they told us that it had broken and it was closed indefinitely, which really sucked. plus i had finally gotten okay with the idea of going on it (*don't like rollercoasters*) and it was a pretty anti-climactic (sp?) moment. went on buzz lightyear. i love that ride so much!! it's like laser tag on a disney ride. and i realize that doesn't really sound that cool. i liked it. we later went on peter pan, pinnochio, saw the tiki tiki tiki tiki tiki room show, went on roger rabbit's spinny car thing, the matterhorn, and FINALLY got to go on space mountain. it was terrifying, but i really did like it. i would do it again. it's true. ummmmm what else. OH! the fireworks are really really cool! i had heard they were and i was like ehh i don;t want to wait an hour (which we ended up doing) to get a good spot. but yeah, they definitely had some cool ideas for that. worth waiting for.
we ate dinnner at the blue bayou :) the restuarant inside pirates of the caribbean. it was really nice, it felt like you were eating outside by a lake in someones backyard in new orleans (pre-katrina) with really good food. we were REALLY lucky to get a reservation there too. we went up at like 1pm and i heard this guy telling his gf/wife/friend "they're only taking reservations for tomorrow" and i went to go tell bryan, who had just gotten up to the front of the line, and i guess that had one cancellation at 5:10 which was perfect cause we were wanting to eat dinner early! and the other neat thing that happened... we found out that if you are in line for a ride by 11:55 (the park closes at 12am) then you can go on. around 11 we realized we never got to go on pirates of the caribbean but we were going on the little kids small rides then. we went on peter pan at 11:30 thinking it would be the last one. so we get off peter pan at 11:50 and look at each other and bryan's like, do you know how to get to pirates? and we just start running there, which i might add is like, completely across the park from peter pan! we ran straight up to the front (no line) and walked over to one of the boats. the lady starts putting the other few little groups of people all on the boat ahead of us and we had seen some people going in their own boats, so we asked if we could too. soooo, we go to go on pirates of the caribbean in our own boat :) it felt like we were just out on a lake. it was very peaceful, well, until the guns shooting and stuff. but that was nice too :) ANYYYYWAY good. times. ill put some pictures up later.
this semesters starting off okay otherwise, in terms of school. geology's easy, but the labs (so far, which is 1) are boring. music of africa and the middle east i enjoy though it's really easy to fall asleep. and my 2 anthro classes are kinda stressful since theyre both 1 day a week, 3 hours each, on the same day, in the same room.
hopefully this weekend will be fun. im REALLY looking forward to Of Montreal. maybe ill get to see brokeback mountain finally if anyone still wants to see it? that would be exciting. and mb i should do some hw too.
