And now for more Florida- read the other one first!
ok, I'm back! The other one hasn't posted yet, which makes me nervous, as I chose to do this instead of my other homework. But this does count as homework, so its allowed. But yes, orchestra struggled a bit, but oh, well, orchestra's hard. The choir sounded AMAZING, though, and I'm really a tough judge! All the solos were the best I've ever heard them, and everyone decided to be in tune that day. Dave and Laura and Jen and Sam came to watch- and Sam said I looked embarrassed- probably cuz I was sunburnt- lol. After performing, we went to "Illuminations" at Epcot, which wasn't as good as the first two light shows, but was still worthwhile. Beforehand, we snuck unto Spaceship Earth, even though we were told not to. It was actually pretty interesting, but as it was required for the last day, it was nice to get it over with sooner. We went back to the hotel, and I left for my Uncle Dave's at 11:30 that night.
I missed everything at Universal, but I figure thats good, cuz, since I've never been there, I don't know what I missed.:D The memorial service was actually really cool- you laughed as much as you cried, and they gave out a really funny picture of my uncle on his motorcycle,( if you know the story behind it), and CDs of the songs they played at the service, which I've been listening to a lot lately. Afterwards, they had a biker processional- which was really amazing, and so... him. They went out to a bar he liked to go to ( which I think the school board might have a problem with if they found out I was in a bar with 30 or so crying bikers), and had a few drinks (diet dr. pepper, in my case) in his honor, took a few pics, featuring "Al's Gals", and went back to Dave and Laura's for the reception and some of the best banana/pudding/pie I've ever tasted. While at the reception, I decided I'm going to save up to buy a Harley Davidson someday, cuz all of the people there were just amazing, and looked out for me, and were just cool, in general.
My dad and I made it back for the "surprise" supper at Medieval Times, which was definitely a pick me up at the end of the day, even though the really cute blue knight should have won. But I got one of the carnations he threw out to the audience. :) Yay for me. ;) The food was really yummy, and surprisingly, not that difficult to eat. And did I mention the blue knight was really cute?
Typhoon Lagoon wasn't my favorite place, but I never really take to water like a fish at sea. It felt nice to use my muscles for something other than walking, but yea, it was just alright. The rest of the last day was at Epcot, and much more fun than Typhoon Lagoon- we went to the U.K., and An and I wanted to buy rugby shirts, but didn't as they cost $55, but I got my mom real tea from London, and Amando Italian chocolate. Then we went on Mission Space, which is totally the best ride ever, but I don't want to explain it, cuz I've already had to, twice, for physics class. The moments before the ride were the best though, when they told you at least 6 times not to go on the ride if you're not good with spinning, or dark enclosed spaces, and then you get in the ride, and there's 8 barf bags for 4 people.
The plane ride home was enjoyably turbulance-y, but I slept most of the way- I was really crabby when I got back, cuz, well, mainly, I've lost that feeling of when coming home felt nice. Now, everytime I come back to Crookston, I get really crabby and want to leave again. But yes, I get to, soon! As soon as I figure out what the heck it this enrollment confirmation I was supposed to have sent in, but don't think I ever got. But yea- I really really need to go do other homework, now- Please God, let this work! Love you all! Muah!
