Either way, shuffling files off a wireless network is kind of slow, when you're limited to about 2 megabytes per second. I can't bring a cable, either, since it'd mean relocation of something. I had fun leaving computers running overnight. At least both are laptops. They don't heat up. |

Tomorrow I have a flight to Athens, Greece for the first part of my mini-tour of Europe. I am not sure if I will have Wi-Fi, but I won't be bringing my laptop with me. I'm really excited for it though, I've never been to Europe before. I'm staying up all night so I can get a nice sleep on the plane ride. Anyone have any ideas on what to take pictures of while I'm there? I might post some on instagram or share them here if I get good ideas ;D

Hey guys I'm baaaaaaack~! Did ya miss me? Four whole weeks and boy it wasn't easy staying away (Look at me trying to make people feel special. It was actually very easy.) But no, I could never stop thinking about how much I missed my time here...
But that's besides the point. What's REALLY important is I'M FINALLY GOING TO LAS VEGAS FOR MY LOVE, BABY!! I'M LIVING OUT MY DREEEEAAAAM! |

Hell yes I am! You even spelled all of it right for the first time It's at the Mirage and here's a related picture since I know EVERYTHING about it. (Except for what the show looks like.)
Oh, the glory of being a fan~
I'm staying a week, but that's all I had planned. And I'm doing it the day after I get there XD Last edited by TurtwigX; June 25, 2013 at 02:01:11 PM. |

I saw LOVE when I was in Las Vegas last week staying at the Mirage. Quite a spectacle. My favorite part was Tomorrow Never Knows, it was not only my favorite song from them but they also had some of the coolest visual effects in that one. They had to make an announcement at the beginning saying not to grab onto it.

None of my favorite songs from the four made it in as full songs XD But from the show (Yes, I have the album and I've listened to it 50+ times. So sue me) is Within You Without You/Tomorrow Never Knows and Lady Madonna. I hope that I love the performance as much as I love the mix~
And just a few months ago I was lamenting because I thought I was born too late and didn't get a chance to see it before it ended. But... it didn't. Yay! |

Alright so my vacation in Athens,Greece is going great (besides for damn jetlag). We arrived yesterday morning, and we've just been walking around exploring Plaka. We've seen some views of the ruins like the Akropolis, or The Temple of Zeus! We've recently taken a Culinary Tour which was amazing~! The food here is so awesome, especially the deserts. If I can steal some photos from my aunt, I'll post them here but for now, here's my Instagram picture of The Temple of Zeus!

OH MY GOD, I am SO jealous of yoooou! Not only because you've left the country (which I've still never done...) but you're at the heart of Greece! One of the top spots I have to go to one day. Do me a solid and get an AUTHENTIC Gyro. |

One interesting thing about authentic gyros that I learned on my tour today; They never actually have lamb in them. They use either pork or beef depending on what you like. Also, the Greek yogurt brand "chobani" or however you spell it.. Is not Greek. It's Turkish!

Omg today was a blast! We walked around and saw this "Athens Segway Tour"! We paid like 35€ and it was awesome. We went around Athens on Segways, learned about the history of some monuments, and at the end we were able to do whatever we wanted at this big open area where we could race the segways and whatnot. It was so cool, I'd definitely do it again. However, we leave Greece tomorrow. On a good note though, we're going to PARIS!

Greece, peaceful? Maybe the tourist parts but.. Greece is known for the demonstration acts that go on around. I'm no sure that's peaceful, but the people in the tourist areas are pretty nice for the most part. You just have to watch out for the occasional pick pocket

Now I've got to start planning for my senior summer. I want to have an out-of-country experience. Hopefully I'll be able to go to Italy~! It's 3rd on my list of important things I want to do. I'm really just excited to leave the East Coast for once, I need a change of scenery.
The future's closing in on me real fast that I barely have time to enjoy myself anymore. Isn't it funny how children just want to grow and young adults wish they could stay young forever? |

I've been studying so hard lately I've forgotten to apply for a new job.
Fortunately I applied for a job at 5 Guy Burgers and Fries and I got called for an interview today, I really hope I get this job because its right across the street from my school and I love there food. |

It's been raining here in Connecticut for more then I weeks now I hope it isn't like this on Thursday.
The Fourth of July is really nice where I live because it's on a lake on top of amount so I get some really nice views. Some times it's like the opposite sides of the lake are at war with each other for who can make the better fire works display. How the do Canadians even Celebrate independence they didn't even do anything for it! I'm guessing you guys got independence by asking politely because that's what you guys do.

I don't know if anyone else heard about this, but this kid named Justin Carter is being put to jail for 8 years b/c of sarcastic remarks he said on LoL and FB. I'll post a link below.

Oh man, I'd hate for that to happen to anyone I knew. Though after the Columbine shooting I can imagine any old person being afraid, it's still a bit of an overreaction.
So does this mean I can't blow up ol' Vegas before I leave there? I mean, a city-wide fireworks show would be great for a late 4th of July celebration, don'tcha think? |

I can't wait for next summer. I can just do whatever I feel like since I don't have to worry about school. Or about studying. Or anything. For once I'll be free~!
...And yet terrifying at the same time. That's too much to think about. |

I haven't been to Canada in 8 years, ironically it was during C-Day you guys don't even seem to make a big deal about it compared to us. I'm glad I don't live on the US-Canada Border Four straight nights of fire works can get annoying.

Just like I've been visiting America my entire life! We're like twins separated at birth, maaaaan.
There's this weird thing happening with my gums and I think it's those "wisdom teeth" things a lot of people talk about. I dunno what they are but... can I keep them? They're not annoying me other than the funny sensation of having teeth grow for the first time in 11 years. |

They removed my wisdom teeth when I was nineteen. It didn't really affect me because I was originally in for a different surgery where they pulled some other teeth out. So they went, "Well lets just pull the wisdom teeth out as well!"
|
#11965

I don't remember whether I got my wisdom teeth pulled out or not. Then again, I hardly remember anything from when I was young.
Aaaaand the mystery of my computer having a frame rate nosedive during hard-core gaming sessions, solved! Turns out I have a very bad case of CPU throttling when the going gets too tough for the Ultrabook-grade CPU in my laptop. Disabling Turbo Boost sure made everything stable again. |

Looks like everyone's on vacation right now, and I forgot to tell anyone that I'm in Boston right now, with a group that my sister's in.
I'm liking it so far. Yesterday I spent 7 hours on a bus and got to eat at Quincy Market, and today I saw the Blue Man Group and ate at Cheers. Tomorrow is Shakespeare at the Park, and hopefully it won't rain on us. |

New Leaf has taken over like the infectious Swine Flu took over the entire continent. Which means that soon it will be solved and forgotten.
And I'm just sitting here wondering what to do with my new life in New Leaf. I've never been more confused in a game. Although, it is giving me ideas for new remixes. |

WE WENT TO OLIVE GARDEN TODAY, WOO! FIRST TIME IN YEARS!
Is that all of my post? Sure enough. The breadsticks were just as good as I remember (and as everyone said. Wasn't there a huge breadstick war last year?) Now that I know a lot of Italian I could actually appreciate the atmosphere of the restaurant. For once. |

I think that was about me asking if you would rather find true love or unlimited Olive Garden breadsticks. Chaos ensued.
I will never try that again. also btw would you rather every Star Trek on DVD or original theatrical-release Star Wars trilogy on DVD |

I dunno, I kind of like the heat. During band camp we transferred to the air conditioned cafeteria because there was an "Unhealthy Air Code Orange." Apparently it was so hot it was unsafe to do outside activity. So we go inside and it's FREEZING. EVERYONE loved it except me. I still get cold too easily...
Though I could've just been preparing my body for the bleak Nevada desert. I'm definitely gonna hug a cactus, that'll be fun! |

Reminds me of last year when I was still working, when ever it started down pouring they always needed someone to to put down the umbrellas and I would always be the one stuck doing it. I would always end up getting soaking wet.

I don't understand how you could possibly be awake and not be totally brain-dead. Heck, I only just recently became able to stay up until midnight without totally losing my senses. I guess that's just the way I am, though, since a lot of people I know have been known to pull all-nighters frequently.
Heck, I remember when I went to bed at 10:30 PM, and would be hard-pressed to stay up any later than that. Looking back, that seems a little ridiculous, but I guess I was just young then and I couldn't stay awake nearly as long. |

All this talk about heat... You guys are lucky. I have to deal with it over here every day, rain or shine, no exceptions. I'd rather leave the air conditioning turned on if only because it's so hot down here.
No, fans don't help. There seems to be awful ventilation here. |
