One Nicely Packed Weekend

My weekend was nice :D
I got to spend it with my friends. On Saturday I went to the beach with Rin-chan and Luka-chan. Unfortunately, Rin-chan was afraid to go in the water, so she didn't get to be very much involved :( . I think she was a little scared because the waves were very big and high. Luka-chan and I were being slapped and harrassed rather roughly by the waves. It was so troublesome xD. I felt like I was being tackled by a football player. My back got scrapped against the sand several times. I'm surprised I didn't start bleeding ^ ^;;. It was fun though! We all dug a really really big hole, and put our feet in it. The ocean water came into the hole, and it was like a little foot spa xD. Afterwards we went to the dollar store and messed around. We started to put on random things around our heads and necks and hold stuff in our hands. It was fun taking pictures xD. But my stupid camera ran out of batteries D: . I totally forgot to charge it before I left. Sigh~ that really sucked.

Today (Sunday), I went to Carvel the ice cream shop/parlor with Luka-chan and Nyu-san. Rin-chan and P. and Je. couldn't go :( they weren't allowed to. Even though I'm allergic to milk (not lactose intolerant), I still ate ice cream xD. I just made one little exception today.
...oh wait...I don't think I've mentioned that I'm allergic to milk >.> hm..which was is semi-important, huh? Well, I am ^ ^. I'm not lactose intolerant; meaning I can ingest milk without throwing up or anything. I'm allergic to milk; meaning my face gets really red and dry whenever I eat dairy projects.

Anyways, continuing with my story :D . So I went to go eat ice cream, and I had my favorite flavor: cake mix. xD it sounds weird, and no one seemed to know what it was either, but I ordered it for Luka-chan anyways. She was very unsure about it, but she ate it anyways. I think she liked it. Anyways, after not eating ice cream in like months it tasted delightful!!
After eating ice cream, we went to the park afterwards. We walked around the pond for a bit, and then went on the swings. While on the swings, we took turns pushing each other until we all eventually got swings ourselves. ^ ^ it was quite fun.

Sigh~ it's exhausting when you hang out with your friends. You have to make sure there's even flow of conversation, and that everyone is having fun. Plus, you got to check about the price of stuff, and time. Inviting everyone is difficult too when you'r doing spur of the moment type things. xD
But I guess the fun and time spent with friends is worth it ^ ^ . Well, you have to worry about these things when you're the one taking people places, but I guess if you're the person attending the outing then you just got to worry about what you're bringing. ^ ^;;

Well, that's all for today folks.
I hope you had just a great of a weekend as I did :D
(and I think that sentence was grammatically incorrect xD)

Just a Bunch of Miscellaneous Information

Well a few things happened that I guess could be interesting.
Yesterday, the UPS dropped off the tablet my dad ordered a few days ago. :D
Yes, I got a new tablet ^ ^ I was pretty excited.
The brand of my tablet was Adesso. I'm not using it for drawing purposes though; more of note taking purposes for class. I'll use it to write my school notes on it, and then afterwards when I get home I upload it into my computer. The reason why the tablet will be useful for school notes is that, it'll translate my notes into computer text. Then I would be able to search through my notes via the computer instead of having to flip through so much paper. Yesterday, I had fun playing around with it. It's pretty cool. Don't ask how much it costs because...I have no clue xD my dad was the one who bought it. But I think it was around $140. Wait...no I think it did cost that much. I remember my dad telling me. Yups. :) $140 including shipping. It's much cheaper compared to wacom (another tablet selling company or brand or something of the sort. and it's kind of expensive from what I hear xD).
And besides the news of the tablet, I'm going to the beach again ^ ^;;
However, this time I'm going with my friends :D so it'll be a little more interesting.
I'm going tomorrow on Saturday :) with Luka-chan and Rin-chan.
Katrina-chan unfortunately couldn't come because her parents wouldn't let her :(
Nyu-san doesn't want to go to the beach. She says she's too busy with tutor homework. But she finishes that quickly. So I think Nyu-san will be embarrassed to have us see her in her bathing suit. xD thus, I didn't push her to come.
Also, I'm going to get a little Exia figure :)
My dad's buying me one. The reason why I'm getting one though is so I can take pictures of it. .. um what I mean by that is I'm going to carry Exia with me, and take pictures of it wherever I go. Thus, I can post more photos on my blog :D the main purpose for this Exia is to substitute for me in photos, since I don't like taking pictures of myself. ^ ^;;
:D but I'm super excited because as you should know, I'm a total Gundam00 fan. So getting  Exia figure is so awesome ^ ^ !! Which reminds me, maybe I should show you some pictures of my gundam models :D I got some of them, and actually built like ...3(?) of them myself. :)
My dad says that since I'm going to use and refer to my Exia figure quite often, I should give Exia a unique and personal name (nickname-ish?). The only problem is....I can't think of anything to nickname Exia ^ ^;;.
Which is quite odd, since I can usually come up with names on the spot! I do it all the time while writing in my roleplays. (which btw you should go check out my other blog if you haven't already.)
I was wondering if you (the person reading this blog at the moment) had any ideas for what to nickname Exia. I'd love to hear some ideas :D I won't be getting Exia until a few days...so don't expect cute little Exia pictures just yet. ^ ^;;

The Beach Again We Go~

So from the title you could tell that I went to the beach again. Summer time is a time of fun and beaches xD

Anyways, this time I got some nice pictures :D
This beach was a lot better then the last one I went to.
We went with my dad's friend's family again.

I made my first sand castle!! :D

I've always wanted to make a sand castle.

I don't know why though...it's just something I've always wanted to do. ^ ^

Well, at least now I can cross it off my bucket list. :) 

[wow I'm glad to say that I've been crossing off quite a few things on my bucket list :D]

Yes I made stairs on my sand castle xD
It was so plain. I had to do something to it.

Here is my castle at another angle. I also built a moat/protective wall around my castle.
I couldn't let the water come and destroy the castle!
that puddle of water is the "moat". [the hole that we dug and ocean water went into it]
the thing that's all lumpy in front of the castle is the protective wall :)

This is a picture of the ocean wave on the beach. I love this beach because it's pretty clean.

A jell fish that wounded up on land.
Sadly it died.
But the children (my little siblings and my dad's family friend's kids) enjoyed staring at it.
My brother actually poked it with a stick ^ ^;;
Looks like poking random things with a stick runs in the family. (i do it all the time xD)
And doesn't this jelly fish sort of shaped like a foot?

This is a picture of a cloud I saw while on the beach.
Doesn't it look like a mouse? or some kind of animal? :D
The sun behind it makes it glow and has a nice affect.

I thought this cloud looked like a robot or person waving hi.
My sister has no imagination and didn't agree.
Do you think it looks like a robot waving hi?

It's my little brother's hand (Ga.)
and
My foot! :D
Ah ha ha ha~ I'm so weird ^ ^
I was standing on "sand clumps".
I don't know why, but I like stepping on them :)
it feels funny when you do.

So anyways, I had lots of fun. 

The cleaning part after the beach is a total pain the butt :P

I hope you like the pictures. xD

And I love looking at clouds by the way...that's why I took pictures of interesting ones.

I can always find cool shapes in the clouds ^ ^

...but for some reason no body else I can see them >.>

My friends think cloud watching and people watching is lame, and they don't understand it.

I love doing both xD

Another Trip to the Beach

Today we went to the beach again. Except it wasn't just me and my family this time. My dad's best buddy from high school invited us to go. The beach we went to was the same one my family and I went to for July 4th. My dad's buddy, H., said they should have fireworks that day. We decided to go with H. and his family because we didn't get to see fireworks on Independence Day. The fireworks weren't going to happen until 9 o' clock or so. Thus, we had to find something to do for 5 hours xD. The beach is also part amusement park, so we decided to hang out there. But the tickets for the rides are so damn expensive TT.TT we only got to ride a few. Well, the younger ones got to ride a few. I only got to ride the bumper cars since I had to drive for my brother who is too short to do it himself. I was okay with that ^ ^ I love bumper cars! :D
Today was my first one actually driving the bumper car myself. We don't go to amusement parks often and when we did it was when I was little. So my dad drove for me for all my experiences with bumper cars.
Anyways, it was so much driving one! :D I was really good at it too for my first time. ^ ^ I had total control. It was hilarious though. Because Z. (the little brother I had to drive with) was screaming the whole time! It was his first time riding, so he didn't expect it to be fast and bumpy xD. My sister didn't know how to drive (it was her first time too), so she kept spinning rapidly in circles. xD It was hilarious. My dad and H. joined in too. I kept bumping into H. xD It was quite awkward, but still funny.
I wanted to go again, but they were so expensive. A ticket was $6 each. That mean for all of us it costed over $30! It sucks :P I couldn't go again.
Afterwards, we went to the kiddie section. I of course had no fun there. But it was fun watching the little ones laugh and have fun ^ ^
Then we went to the beach. And guess what. After we waited until 8 o' clock, we found out that there was no fireworks!! >:\ that's not right man. Second time this has happened. Turns out they have fireworks every Friday. So we're going next Friday. Sigh~ I really wanted to see fireworks :( even if they're just loud colorful sparks in the sky that get boring after 2 minutes, I still want to see them.
Since, it was late, we all just went to a nearby calorie monster McDonald's xD.
Then we came home and started watching Dexter. Dexter is this super awesome show about a serial killer. xD You should really find a way to watch it ^ ^
We got the whole series, so we watch an episode or two every night.
But each episode is like an hour long >.> so we all end up staying up until 12 or 1 o' clock.
Which causes me to not want to wake up early and study, but I have too TT.TT

Independence Day

I totally forgot to tell you about my July 4th! I'm so sorry >~<
Well, my July 4th was...okay I guess.
There's this beach that has a fireworks show every July 4th. Furthermore, my brother keeps complaining about how he wants to go to the beach and wants to see fireworks. Thus, my dad decided to spend our Independence Day at this beach. Hit two birds with one stone ^ ^ (this saying sounds violent xD and mean towards birds). Anyways, when my family goes out it takes forever. You know how hard it is to get two toddlers ready for the beach? Very hard. Plus, my sister didn't have the slightest clue on how to prepare for the beach either, so I had to tell her what to do. I swear, she's too spoiled and lazy. Everyone basically does the work for her. But my dad has been trying to get her to do simple chores like the dishes or something. She's not very good at them; needs more experience.
I packed my bag with basically everything. A towel, extra clothing, a jacket (just in case it suddenly gets cold. it happens xD), sunscreen, and so on. I like to be very prepared ^ ^. I'm glad I brought the sunscreen because my dad forgot it. I saved the family from sun burn ! xD
Once we finally got to the beach, we had to find stupid parking. Afterwards, we then had to find a spot on the beach. But my dad wanted to sit somewhere near the food area. Which was all the way on the other side. TT.TT there was so much walking. Once we get to the food stands, my dad gets some corn dogs and funnel cake. I was like "We just got done eating lunch!" and he was like "I thought you guys might want a snack." My dad is crazy >.> . . . The funnel cake was good though ^ ^
As we were standing there eating, we noticed signs that said "No fireworks on July 4th." Everyone in my family got so disappointed. I mean fireworks was our main reason for going to the beach.
However, my dad was glad I noticed the sign or else we would've stayed there until 10:00 pm clueless xD.
The beach was fun. I accidently grabbed onto a tiny crab thinking it was a pretty rock. When I saw the legs wiggle around everywhere, and felt it against my skin, I dropped it and screamed. Then I shook my hand (as if all the crab germs would fly off) and started shouting "Ew! Ew! Ewww!" A nearby elderly-ish person saw/heard me and started laughing. >~< Which wasn't nice at all. My sister started laughing, and said that happened to her too. Apparently, she told dad, and he said that we should have ve caught it, so we could eat it. I was like "Firstly, the crab is too small to be satisfying in anyways. And secondly, ewww > <" I'm telling ya, I have a weird father. After two or three hours we left.
