*With Honor/The Distance split
*Good Riddance/Kill your Idols split

and got some stuff from ED Walters the KTMQ/ Del Cielo split, Del Cielo/Sin Des Marie split, and The Great Clearing Off. and scored on a heart attack zine, and a shorter faster louder zine.
AWESOME.
+ got into Captown ate at a shitload of good Veggie restaurants
+met up with Lauren who I havent seen in like 2 years! it was really awesome hanging out with her.
+got my half -sleeve tattoo done!!!! its awesome pics soon.
+good looking boys w/ dreadlocks all over the place, black boys with dreads, colored boys, white boys! it was overwhelming
+mountains and beaches, and penguins lots of penguins.
+lots of bikes
+Long street
-NO KNIFE FIGHT FEST. one of the reasons i chose that week to go to Capetown was to check out the this metal fest. oh well.
Saturday finally came... cassi and i decided to pull an all nighter and spend the whole night on Longstreet and check out the clubs
-checked out one of the most terrible punk rock shows EVER. it made me want to kill everyone there. the kids sucked, the bands sucked, the room was full of smoke. kids sucked.
+got to the Zula club met some awesome people
+mad shawtys
-music sucked
-almost got my shit stolen, but i showed the nigga whats up.
+got into the marvel club, it was hott. the club was so packed with goodlooking dudes and ladies, it was so packed there was like 4 people at toilets at once. totally insane.
+AMAZING TUNES, the the DJ was on point with the hip-hop selections, he even through some oldies like the tempatations, jackson 5. SOOO GOOD.
+every boy telling me how fly i am, how good i look, how they want my number, and how they want me to stay longer. it was great. hahaha.
+ met this awesome cat Tulanni we rambled on and on about the revolution,politics, and good shit like that.
3:30 in the morning came, we drove to the airport, by then i was completely exhuasted and sleep deprived but i just knew i wanted to go back to long street. the followind day finally made to Kampala, Uganda. it was kinda depressing, and what also is kinda depressing is the fact the i'm not travelling anywhere till summer vacation when i hit up Indonesia, possibly NYC. which is totally sweet. 4 months left to go!
I got a week left of vacation. I plan on reading lots, working at the Wildlife center, writing letters to friends, and getting bahas indonesian lessons!
