Another Excursion


The one thing I always look forward to is spring break.  Not for the parties, or the beach, but for our annual trip to Yosemite National Park.  This year we went with our close family friends, and had an extremely good time.  The one thing I always say when I'm upset, or pretending to be upset is, "Oh my gosh, I am going to cry." One this event Sarah, my friend, happen to hear me say that line more than ten times, in one day.  Here it was: Get up at 7:00.  Roll out of bed, literally.  Yell quietly.  Take a shower.  Do my hair.  Left in cabin alone.  Go to breakfast.  Eat oatmeal.  Get ready for hike.  Take bus to hiking trail.  Get off bus.  Whine because of cold.  Get scolded by Mother.  Take picture of our bear backpacks.  Start hike.  Find Indian caves.  Become bored.  Say "Im going to cry".  Hike to lake.  Get rained on.  Say "I'm going to cry".  Get hailed on.  Say "I'm going to cry".  Walk back to bus.  Get on bus, to eat lunch.  Eat lunch.  Get left behind by parents.  Have to catch a new bus.  Say "I'm going to cry".  Miss bus.  Say "I'm going to cry".  Miss other bus.  Say "I'm going to cry".  Almost actually cry.  Catch bus.  Get back to the cabin.  Yell at mother.  Eat dinner.  Play Rummikub.  Lose.  Say "I'm going to cry".  Go back to sleep.  The end.  Yes, I was cranky, and yes, I actually did have a good day.

San Fran

I happen to highly enjoy the bay area.  I live there so why not enjoy it, right?  Well this trip was highly productive as I realized I hate prisons. Alcatraz scared me, but I happen to get a few good photographs.  This one is one of my favorites, although this made the resolution terrible.  I go there every time my grandparents come up, and I never remember to bring a decent coat.  Along with the cold, a huge school bus full of teenagers from England were here, and I had a headache the whole entire time.  They took too many pictures, and laughed extra loudly.  On the bright side, I got to get away from my home for a while.  I guess my trip as a whole was successful.  I hope, one day, I get to see it when it's not below 40 degrees.

The truth about the internet:

Is that no matter how many online connecting/chatting/video/music/blogging  sites there are  I never seem to be involved in enough.  I mean there's facebook, myspace, twitter, blogs, stickams, youtube, and so many others, and we must be included in all the newest ones.  I seem to be drawn to the "What are you doing now?" sites.  Like this one, or twitter.  Maybe this blog will be different.  I have no idea.
