Ok, so where have I been lately, well, let me tell ya.
I was on a senior trip. From March 14th to the 18th.
So, this is what we all did from day 1
And so big its getting a LJ Cut
So,
Day 1
Went to school like any other day, as we were expected to leave at 4 in the afternoon.
The plan was to get to Boone, NC by 6am, so our class had to be ready by 4pm.
Well not all of us were packed and ready, I was ready as I was forced to get everything together the night before. So I was ready for this for sure.
So, 4pm comes by. We load up on the bus, which we found out, wasn't the actual bus we were gonna take, the other bus, and the one that was better, was up in Vierra Florida. We get there, load up on the other bus, and take off.
All I have to say for day 1 is this, it SUCKED. No sleep at all. Well, how can you expect to sleep on a bus. I mean really. So the total amount of sleep I got, from day 1, going to day 2, was 2 hours.
Day 2
Ok, most of day 2 was on the bus, cause day 2 started at midnight. So, we get to the hotel at 4am, hmmm, 2 hours early. Cause the actual plan was to get to the hotel by 6am, which didn't happen, I guess the bus driver knew how to drive the bus, as we did get there 2 hours early, which was a good thing. The teacher who planned this was shocked to see that we got there that early, so she got 4 rooms, for all of us to crash in for the time being. So I managed to get a bed, and sleep for 2 hours. So around 645am, we all woke up, ate breakfast, unpacked the bus, and got our true rooms. I was roomed with my friends Kevin, Rudy, and Gabe. We had a good time as well.
Now starts the real day 2. At 8 am, we left to Sugar Mountain, a ski resort. This place was cool, though the sad part was, the snow was fake. But it didn't really matter. And so, we made our way there, got our rented stuff, I rented a snowboard, which funny enough, was the first time I've EVER did this kind of thing. I've never ski'd or used a snowboard, so I was a total noob at it. After falling about 100 + times on my first run, I got the hang of it, and pretty much mastered it. I can't say I'm great, but I got the basics of snowboarding now, expect stopping, which to this day, I'll never figure it out completely.
At the end of the day, my bones and muscles just felt like jello, I mean, I WAS SORE. I ended up falling asleep at 1015pm, that night, after talking to my girlfriend. I just dropped on the bed, and fell totally asleep.
Day 3
Got about 12 hours of sleep, which was GREAT.
Did the same things as day 2, went to Sugar mountain, fell alot, and managed to go down a slope without falling.
End of day there, hung out at hotel and played NFS Most Wanted till 2 am. (Yes I brought my Gamecube with me)
Day 4
Same thing, just for a half day though.
We left Boone, NC and went to Gatlinburg, TN. Arrived there at 6pm.
So my friends hung around there. I bought another Yoshi shirt, but this was like a custom one, it was done with an Airbrush, then pressed to make sure it doesn't wash out and stuff. And of course, I played some DDR up there. Found this arcade called Ripley's Super Fun Zone. So they had 2 Extreme's there, and I played for 30 mins.
After hanging in Gatlinburg, we went and stayed the night at my 5th - 8th grade homeroom teachers' mountain range home. Of course, I'm not used to being up at high elevations, so my nose blew up, fun mess there.
Day 5 (Final)
Left my old homeroom teachers' home, btw, her name is Mrs. Carole Olson, and just spent the next 12 or so hours, and made it back to Palm Bay Florida at around 9pm.
I got home, at my house, around 930, my mom was late, but it took us a while to unpack the bus as well, so I wasn't alone for the time being until my mom got there and picked me up.
And I'm done, now too look forward to spring break, and this weekend, cause our arcade will have a new ITG2 cabinet, but I get to finally play PIU Zero.
Spring Break will be nice, cause I'm hoping to spend more time with my girlfriend. (No, not in that way you sicko's, thats what marriage is for)
Ok, I'm done, later my friends.
