    Disney World 2009 pics

    We had one full day (Magic Kingdom/Hollywood studios) and 2 half days (epcot). Despite the fact that’s really not long enough, especially for someone who has never been there (Chase & Scott!) we had a LOT of fun (which is why we kept skipping out on the convention way early to go back to the parks… LOL) Scott, me and…

Yep, I finally got them online.…

    paris day 2

    So after the long ass night, we finally got up and got dressed and headed for the Louvre. Today was a first day trying the Metro. Well, of course we screwed up and got out at the wrong place, and had to walk quite a ways to the Louvre. Luckily it was sunny and wasn’t too cold, so it wasn’t…

    Paris day 1

    So, our flight left at 5:30. We had checked in online, which apparently threw everyone else in our group off. (we had been registered through a travel agency, and apparently if us three hadn’t checked in online the night before, they would have been able to check in the whole group at once there at the airport or something. I…

    when i went to paris and london

    I’m home! Ok so I’ve been home all weekend, but I came home sick and jet lagged so I’ve been sleeping ๐Ÿ˜€ I’ll go through the whole trip later, when I’m on the other computer where it’s easier to type. I’m going to start downloading my pics tonight, too. I took around 600! The quick story, though: Paris was fun.…

    bonjour from paris!

    I’m here in a little internet cafe in Paris! I’ve only got a few minutes so I have to be fast. We’ve been to Notre Dame, the Louvre, the Eiffel Tower, and the Orsay Museum. I woke up feeling woozy this morning so I stayed at the hotel all day asleep, while Kristie and Ash went to Sacred Heart and…

    Leaving…

    I’m leaving for Katsucon! Let’s hope the rain here slacks up so I can take off, and the snow slacks up there on Sunday so I can come home. ๐Ÿ˜€ As usual I have no idea when I’ll be wearing what. I try to plan it out beforehand but it never works that way. Here are the costumes I’m taking……

    when i was in chicago

    Is it Tuesday already? Damn! Saturday – I actually spent the night over at my aunt’s friday night, so we could get up early and head to the airport. It was very stormy here that morning, and takeoff was kind of bumpy. I learned that I can carry my suitcase on as a carry-on, which cut down the stress-level of…

    when I posted alaska pics

    Well today is my birthday. I’m not all that excited, in case you can’t tell! But my entire family went to Molly’s LaCasita (my fav Mexican restaurant) and we took up a whole room. They had the waiters give me a cake and everybody sang happy birthday and it was so embarrassing! Ugh… Well, I got some good presents. Money…
