Mangg. i need to stop checking yahoo news. the olympic schedule is hella confusing. maybe i missed it or it hadn't aired yet, but i missed the 200m freestyle, even though i was waiting for it? and friggin yahoo tells you that thorpe got gold. so i wasn't sure about that one. but the men's gymnastic finals don't air until tonight, on primetime nbc. i was gonna search something and then there's this huge thing about how Japan won gold. now watching it, if i even do that, is gonna be lame. i will not check it again.
it's hella confusing though. downstairs, we have the high definition broadcast which is uber retarded. it just replays this montage thing with sights in greece, over and over and over. and they only have one commercial that plays continuously. but they'll have the things i wanna watch. upstairs has normal commercials and stuff but they'll have softball or something. it's both nbc. i don't understand.
dood. male gymnasts, that one canadian diver, swimmers. they're all cut cut cut. it's super distracting, i'm watching for the articles man.
it's pretty long overdue, but i decided i want to post pictures from europe. since a) i rarely post pictures and b) i never really posted europe pictures c) i don't have much else to do at work. All of the pictures are from kenny k's camera. Mostly taken by him, some were taken by me and some by carl. He takes the most awesomest pictures, they're like post cards, seriously.
patti and erica are gone, gone, gone. hopefully i can go visit them over break. that would be friggin awesome. it'd be like we were all grown up. i still can't realy grasp they they've moved to london. who the heck does that. jerk-asses. they left me. or i'm a jerkass for not going with them. manng.
Sac in...two more days. well not just sac - san jose and san fran too. and i think linda's gonna take me rafting? it should be fun, fun, fun.
and now! on to the pictures...
at school before we headed off. kenny and carl.
i took this picture! @ LAX
sitting in egg chairs in the munich airport.
we switched glasses. heh.
lol. brian and a statue in madrid.
these were everywhere!
i straightened kenny's hair. hawt/haute/hott
the streets of madrid, yo.
fotografia.
patti was pretending to be a ghost.
this was actually in france. carl's in a sheet too! cept i think he's drying off, there were no towels in that hotel.
aha. nolan. what a character. Kenny said, "Dance!" and he did. not in this picture though.
this is where they keep the bulls in pamploma before the san fermin craziness.
this is the street the bulls run down.
all the bulls had balls. every drawing, stuffed animal, statue.
in barcelona we saw a bull fight. can you say culture shock?
in front of the cathedral in barcelona all these people were dancing in giant circles. it was great.
the holy family church. coolest thing ever. they build it only from donations.
it's about 150 years old so far. completely empty on the inside. and the bell you hear tolling? a recording.
the beachy area had all sorts of modern art. i wish we spent more time there and stayed at some place that wasn't in the middle of nowhere.
we were walking to the beach and i stepped in a thing of mud. it was really deep.
it was really far, so we took a break to eat.
we went to the gaudi part thing. the guide was really cool.
postcard perfection.
we visited a couple chateaux (how do i pluralize that?) on our way to paris.
this one was built in the friggin river. the other one wasn't so great.
in paris we saw the sights. looking up view of the arc de triomphe.
looking up view of the eiffel tower.
nighttime sparkly view.
boat ride view of notre dame.
the mona lisa room!
mona.
don't they look alike?!
versailles was awesome. i was the guide's favorite.
seriously, the clouds over there are different. see it?
kenny is soooo cool for doing that.
now to london! that's the gate at buckingham palace, if i remember correctly.
big ben!
el groupo. from left - erica, kenny, me, carl, bree-An, annie, patti, and HestAH.
haa.
we did tons of other stuff but i took pics with disposable cameras and i'm not about to scan em all. maybe just a few of my favorites, in a few months or something.
