It's weird how I just keep losing time for doing anything anymore.
But I plan on changing that soon enough.
So I'm back from Spain/Portugal/France/UK territory.
It was crazy. You know, learning new stuff, doing new things, seeing new people, living amongst a new culture.
The sun doesn't set there until like 10PM. How crazy is that?
Makes you wish your area had that much daylight.
Then again, the night-time is always a fun time.
My summer's been relatively swell.
July isn't over yet.
And we've got August.
Tho, my parents have been OD on everything lately.
A good and bad thing.
We'll see what happens.
So let's start this off with a small retelling of R'Fest. <3
That was one hell of a day.
Def somewhere on the top 15 days of my life.
Set the scene to nice weather on July 30th starting around 1 o'clock.
Four Asians poured out of a car -- my sister drove. Lolz, we're all Gaians.
The one of three bands I actually wanted to see wasn't playing for another coupla hours, which I found out after asking its bassist, so we went to the park.
There was this stream and we tried skipping rocks and stuff while the sister took pictures, because she gets artsy like that.
Went to the children's park there too. The would-be wood chips were actually bits of rubber fashioned to look like wood chips. Jigguhwhaaaah~
After sometime, walked over to the nearby shops to get some drinkz and candies.
Saw a certain attractive someone wearing pretty much my favorite color shirt, and wished muh otha friend who said she would be coming late was there to spazz out about it.
When walking back to the building in which the stages were staged, I was like "Heeey let's not walk on this side of the street. Or just yet."
After we got out of the way of an ambulance, I was forced to walk by he-who-isn't-going-to-be-named through a whole crowd of smelly fags. And my friend was like "lolololololololol" at me while we passed him by. No joke.
"So many kids but I only see you. And if you only knew. I was terrified and would you mind if I sat next to you and watched you smile?"
After a moped? accident and just hanging around in front of like, a lawyer's office, went in to see one of the three bands I wanted to see.
So I wuz like "omfg you guys rock" while being a shutterbug.
[Later on, I had to photoshop the pics to make them not so dark. ******** not using flash as to not distract 'em, mang. Irony, his pics came out the best. Of course, it's coz the drums are in the back with the best light from the windows, but still.]
Insane drum skills~ lol@"THEY ALL LOOK LIKE BROTHERS!"
Cover of Be My Escape, and I was like yooooooo. <3
Then went to the park again.
My otha friend and her friend finally came. Late. In the middle of the last song.
But we kinda sat around and threw more rocks and watched them try not to fall into the river thing [dummies, they don't know where that water's from, it was freaking flowing into the HUDSON]
But good times nonetheless.
Sometime a lot later, after dinner, and after buying shirts, we watched the four main bands.
TMNB was rad.
Patent Pending was insanely epic. Hug from the lead vox, yo. Crushed by Benny. Joe is such a chill guy.
Then DGW.
Then JLG! <3 Always always always floored by them. Hug from the supersweet guitarist. JLG = love.
And then we called it a night.
He-who-I'm-not-gonna-name disappeared after sometime, butuh, you know, the eyecandy dealy-o is funshiz.
My ears were ringing for like two days. XD I usually get over it overnight, but dag, yo.
"Ringing in my ears sounds like someone's banging on the door."
That song just came up on iTunes, lawls.
Then vacation was great.
18 days of at least 6 different languages [English, Catalan, Spanish, Portuguese, French, and German to name the most heard.] a bunch of historical buildings, churches, museums, hotels, picture taking, and just my typical family vacation.
I'll just name a bunch of noteworthy things.
Barcelona. La Rambla. Geese. Madrid. Bullfight. Algeciras. Granada. La Alhambra. Gibraltar. Lisbon. Niceass hotel. Fatima. Rosary bracelet. Burgos. Bilbao. Guggenheim. Lourdes. Grotto water. Paris. Eiffle Tower. Arc de Triomphe. Notre Dame. The Lourve. The Metro. Moulin Rouge. Versailles. Fancy McDonalds.
And waaay more.

Every thought just leads to you like winding roads to beaches.
