So This might be the only chance i get to update while im on this excellent family reunion (just typing that makes me cry laughing), but ill try not to be too long. First of all i got to macon in about 3 hours, not too bad. I got there around one, so i had quite a bit of time to sightsee. I went to St Josephs Catholic church. It was absolutely amazing! I would compare it too St Patricks, unless im not remembering that one right. I also went to two houses. The first was called the cannonball house, which was cool. But the most awesome thing i went to was this house called the hay house. It was an Italian revival style of a house, and it was built in the 1850s. The had moldings on the ceilings in every room that had angel head statutes. It was so breathtaking. The couple who built it also had an italian painter come over and paint their walls to make it look like marble. My eyes hurt thats how beautiful it was. After that i walked back to my car and was hit up by a drug injecting hobo. His excuse for the marks on his arms was that he gave blood, lol. I went to eat at La Margharitas, no i didnt get any, stupid age. After that i went back and relaxed at the hotel. And boy did i have time to relax, my parents didnt get in till 1 am, haha so pathetic.
The next day we made the lovely drive up here to hiawassee. My father's plan was to have me follow him up here, haha that was a joke. He sped up then slowed way down, he wouldnt follow me into any other lanes, and was being a real pain in the ass. OMG he was soooo mad, but by the time we got here he had calmed down cause it took an hour to get through a town two miles long, ahhh lovely traffic. We finally got in and grabbed our beds, i got a nice bed the first night, but then was forced to forfeit it to my 16 year old cousin cause everyone thought it would be a great idea for me and my female cousin to share, ohh boy!!!
Pretty much since we've gotten here we havent done anything, literally nothing. We have sat around, talked, and played pool. I have gotten much better since Ive been here, Watch out Laura PAW! Were planning on going tubing tommorow so that should be fun, and were gonna go see fireworks tonight. So not completely boring. Just upset that we wont be able to go on a boat. My grandparents turned their noses to that idea, after they asked me what there was to do around here. Anyway we also played a game called apples to apples. It was soo much fun. My mom said she would get it for me for my b-day so we'll all have to play. Of course the topic of religion and whatnot has come up several times. But for extremely religous people, my cousins sure do like mainstream things, like music and movies. Interesting i think. My grandfather said that in this book he is reading, the author states that cancer is caused by our sins. Keep in mind he had two types of terrible cancers, and so has my mother. My mother went right back at him and said well its just a theory, and he was like oh no this is the only truth. I cant beleive how naive he is, what about kids that get diagnosed and died of cancer, were they all evil?? this is the type of shit that we deal with every time we see them. They dont care about how we are doing, they are on a mission, and at the end when they dont succeed they get nasty with us. Oh boy cant wait! Anyway thats about it, dont have my organic test yet, he didnt hand them back yesterday, like he said he would, bad boy Hilinski! i should come home on thursday, but i really dont want to cause it is relaxing up here, and watch them go out on a boat after i leave, that would suck. Ok gotta go, TATA, and go ITALIA, 0-0 at the half, oh boy!
