Hello every one!
Long time (kind of) no type. I know I said I’d be blogging every day and I had every intention of fufilling that promise, but that was before I found out I wouldn’t be able to connect to the internet because the router and my lappy were incompatible. I will recap as best I can though.
Let’s see…
Odin’s Day, June 2nd- went to the JFK Space Center. we took the bus tour, went on the launch simulator and watched the Hubble IMAX presentation.
Thor’s Day, June 3rd- went on an air boat ride and saw a bagillion gators.
Frigg’s Day, June 4th- left from Sebastian FL and drove all the way to Grenada. It was an eighteen hour drive. Goose took the first shift. She drove for about five hours and got us to the top of Florida. We were trying to stall because we were going to get to Grenada at two in the morning because we left later in the day than planned, so we stopped at Cocoa Beach and went to Daytona as well. Anywho, we switched off after about five or six hours and I drove! Yay me driving! So, we hop onto I 10, planning to skim across the bottom of Alabama and almost hit Louisanna then shoot up I 55 straight to Grenada. The Nuvi nav system had different ideas. It took us to 45. Yeah, I hear they shot Jeepers Creepers on 45. It didn’t help that it was completely dark and the grass was taller than the car. And no one seemed to know that they’re supposed to dim their high beams when another car is coming. Anyway, long story short, I drove thirteen hours straight because we were too freaked out to stop anywhere.
We went to some kind of party and there were a bagillion people there. They were all red necks. They made us eat crawdads. It was gross.
And now I’m back at home in one piece!
I hope you all had a great kick start to summer!

Hello every one!
I’m blogging from the Holiday Inn at St Augustine! Today, I went to the beach for the first time in over five years. It was wunnerful! The ocean tastes saltier down here than it did in New Jersey where I used to beach. Right now, Goose and I are watching Beerfest. I do like that movie. I know, it seems tasteless and such, but it’s great. Tomorrow, we go back to Goose’s grandfather’s house, pack then head for her grandmother’s house. I think we might stop in Orlando on our way down. I am really distracted right now…I think I’ll stop blogging for now…

Hello everyone!
I am frEking out. Yes, I am very aware of the fact that I misspelled freaking. So, we get to Goose (that is what we will call E now, you may call me Maverick) ‘s grandfather’s house and get settled in and stuff. Then we watched a movie (if you can guess and you’re on Gaiaonline, I’ll send you a prize) and he went to bed. So, we went to our room, unpacked our clothes for the next day and I hopped into the shower. After showering, I had to use the toilet. So, (I’m going to try my best not to go into detail here) I did (just number one, girls don’t go number two). And then, I looked up and saw a sky light. Yes, there was a skylight, also known as a ceiling window, directly above the toilet. Then, I flushed the toilet and washed my hands. I turned the sink off and the toilet made a horrid noise. Cautiously, I lifted the lid (I always close the lid because I’m afraid of germs and such) and (this is going to get slightly gross…actually pretty gross and kind of graphic) there was poop in the toilet. I know that people poop and stuff, but normally after I flush the toilet, poop does not appear. So so, I ran and got Goose and started frEking out and all she could do was laugh. She then asked me if I plunged the toilet and I said that the toilet plunger was made for looking at. She then went into the bathroom and told me that it was a toilet brush…because in my frEked out stage, I couldn’t tell the difference. I know, it sounds pathetic, but honestly, how do you react to poop in the toilet? And then, mother Goose flushed the toilet and it made the horrid noise again. She calmly opened the lid and closed it again. Then said something too low for me to hear so I asked her again and she started laughing…I mean busting up ( I think that’s the proper term) laughing… and she repeated, “now there’s only one piece”

Other than that, my day was pretty great. I’m going to upload a video of us driving a bit and such so you can all get a feel for driving into Florida without leaving home. Oh yes, if you drive like you’re in ‘bama, you’ll end up in the slamma’

PS this was written yesterday, but I didn’t have a good interweb connection…

Hello every one!
I am blogging from Grenada, Mississippi! The ride was pretty fun…we had a slow start waiting around for the bank to open so I could cash a check to get money, but when we got going, we got going! Here are a few choice signs we saw and the thoughts we shared on them:

“No trucks in Tennessee” Huh, that sucks…I’m not sure that if means there are no trucks allowed in Tennessee or if there are no trucks allowed on the bridge..
“Hickahala Creek” I don’t want to go swimming in that thing.
“$250 fine for throwing trash on the highway” …no officer, I wasn’t throwing trash, I was littering”
“one way” on the interstate? is that even necessary? who made it so?

Also, as people do, we got hungry. So, being people, we stopped at McDonalds…with coupons. I mean, c’mon, we’re going on a road trip and we have a limited supply of cash, of course we’re going to use coupons! Anyway, I asked the cashier if they accepted coupons and I showed her them. She said yes and asked to see the expiration date…which was May 31. So, E and I got our ‘buy one large sandwich, get one large sandwich free’. Then, E’s sis got her ‘free medium fries and medium drink with purchase of large sandwich’. At this point, the manager walks up and grabs a coupon, gives us the stink eye and asks for the expiration date on the coupons. Well, the coupons weren’t expired, that’s for sure. We got our food and headed back for the car…food that we purchased with coupons only valid in our home state (which is not Miss)…and not to be immature, but did I mention the ‘Dick Lavy’ truck?

Any who, back to business, or the lack thereof. Tomorrow, we head out for Florida…we have two days to travel ten hours. I’m pretty sure we’ll drive as far as three o’clock then check into a hotel that doesn’t look terribly shady.

I hope you all have a wunnerful, munny saving day!

Hello everyone!
Okay, so maybe I fibbed just a bit when I said tomorrow. It’s more like in a few hours…I will be leaving for Florida! First stop along the way is to get gas, of course. After that, we hope to make it to Mississippi tomorrow. We’ll be staying there until sometime Friday afternoon and then we’ll be headed out to Florida and find somewhere decent to sleep…which translates to a parking lot that’s well lit and has security cameras. Let’s all say it together, “Wal Mart!” Just kidding (kind of…) any who…I think it’s about a ten hour drive from Mississippi to Florida, so we’ll probably either stop somewhere or just be completely exhausted at the end of the day. Well, I guess that’s all for now. I’ll be typing more later tonight most likely.

Hello every one!
As you can all tell by the title of this blog, I am going on a road trip to Florida with my friend E!! (double exclamation point because the proper spelling of E! is E! )
Anywho, we’ll be gone for ten days. I hope to keep a blog (if not vlog) for the trip. I think it’ll be tons of fun.
So, what does one do in Florida, anyhow?

Other than that, yesterday I got my schedule for fall semester! eee!

Hello everyone!
QD here, reporting live from the local airport. Just kidding, I’m not reporting much of anything, except the fact that you can get a brain-freeze from guzzling down a vanilla bean frappe too quickly. 70% frappe, 30% whipped cream = %100 the best non coffee frappe evar!
So, here I am two hours early to pick up my brother. How fun! My crazy parents are on the loose, roaming around in what I’m almost positive is “airport personnel only” territory…hopefully they won’t get into too much trouble.
So, I’m graduating tomorrow at eight! Wish me luck and balance!
I’m a bit dissappointed though, I won’t be able to wear my heels because they’re too thin and I’ll sink into the field (we still don’t have an auditorium)…
I could really go for a meatball sub right now…too bad there’s no Subway! X(

Anyway, this summer, a friend and I are taking a road trip to Florida! I’m so excited! Exclamation point! Any who, we don’t really know what to do…we’ll be there for three days, and on the way back across the world, we’re stopping by Pensacola.

So, where do you suggest we go?

Hello every one!
School is almost out for summer! I’m so excited! I’m going to have my last day of high school ever. It’s great, and I’m so ready to leave. Other than that, I really have nothing else to say…I haven’t picked out my graduation dress yet. Last Wednesday, my senior class took a trip to Silver Dollar City in Branson. Then, we went to the landing; my friends and I ate at Shorty Small’s (get the macho nachos, they’re huge!) and bought shoes. I got a pair of knock of Chuck Taylors: suede with fuzzy insides and some knit boots: brown and purple…two colours I never wear. Anyway, next Saturday, I’m going to Blanchard Springs…I have no idea what that is, but I’m going! Hopefully, my Physics class will be going to Magic Springs as well. All in all, school is for fools.

Hello every one!

I know I said I was going to post a video and such, but that was before my camera followed my desktop comp to the grave and I discovered my web cam has terrible quality.

The vlog I was going to put up is now going to be a regular blog. I’ll post it on here in a day or two!

Have a wunnerful day!

Hello everyone!

Today was my first day back at school after spring break…needless to say, but I’ll say it anyway, I experienced internet withdrawls. During my first class, I was okay. I checked my email and went through class. Third class rolled around and I was tired of the slow internet at my school. Fifth period came and I wanted nothing more than to fake sick to go home and hit the forums. I would have even settled for gold farming. I missed the internet so!

Other than that, I’m filming a vlog today. I pinky promise I will. It’ll be fun, I hope…I hope to see you on my channel!
