The randomness

So I thought I'd update a bit.. Everything is in my car, did I say that before? hehe. I need to get the rest of the pictures up. Uhmm, I have the Nintendo DS reserved, woo! And Mario 64 DS, and Half-Life 2, and World of Warcraft, and Metroid Prime 2.. I'm finally starting to play my GBA again, trying to beat Fire Emblem right now. I've been sucked into the World of Warcraft beta. It's a good game, most addicitve MMO I've ever played, Aaah! Still joh hunting for a better one.. Staples is ok for now though. I want out of retail. Put the Halloween decorations up - we have a blowup spider this year! I got my 2005 Great Adventure season pass last week. I hear that Kingda Ka has gone vertical too, so I think I'll head over there just to see and take pictures tomorrow. I can't believe it's the middle of October already! I'm voting for Kerry :) Bush makes me angry. And yes, I watched all 4 debates, and I had a year's class of local/nation US government (as my friend's know), GALRE, so I know what's up. Speaking of GALRE, I should finish the DVD I'm making of the DC trip.. Last Sunday we went over my aunt's for my baby cousin's christening. What fun. It was the first time my whole family was together since, well, since my aunt and uncle got divorced, and my grandmother died back in 1996.. so it's been awhile. It was nice to see everyone again, including my cousins. Did I ever even say I have a new cousin? His name's Scott, he was born June 21st I believe. It's weird because my brother is 17 and was the youngest in my family until now. Gonna be a strange generation gap there. And what names it even worse is my new cousin's other side of the family (my aunt's husband's side) has kids at 8 and under. The families split up at the party and stayed that way. The age difference is weird.

KINGDA KA - Only at Six Flags Great Adventure!

Meet Kingda Ka - Six Flags Great Adventure's newest coaster for the upcoming 2005 season - The Tallest, and Fastest in the World! It towers at 456ft, and rockets you out of the station from 0-128mph in 3.5 seconds. Whee :) I'm glad I only live 15 minutes away! Now, for those of you that have known me a long time.. you are probably amazed that I'm hyped up about this new rollercoaster. Why? Asks everyone else.. because I've been terrified to go on them until about a year ago! TERRIFIED. Big change, huh? I went to Six Flags yesterday.. we decided to try out the qbot fastlane thing, and with it's help we managed to do the following within 5 hours: Nitro: 3 times (front row, 3rd from last, last row) Batman: 2 times (front row and second to back row) The Chiller: Batman: 1 time (2nd row) The Chiller: Robin: 1 time (2nd row) Medusa: 2 times (front row and back row) Superman: 1 time Scream Machine: 1 time Rolling Thunder: 1 time Aah, it was fun :) In other news.. my car is completely done with all its accessories yay! Keep checking the link in the last post for updated pictures. Also, I had a job opportunity but I turned it down :( wasn't worth the driving and hours and stuff.. here's hoping I find something better.
