Awkwardfamilyphotos.com for very random pictures like this. The caption for this was "Truly a party in these people's pants." Bahahaha :)
Oh postsecret. I hope by now that everyone knows what this wonderful website is. I've become so addicted that sometimes I think in secrets. In the past month I've come up with about twenty I'd like to send in. I just can't think of any creative ideas for a background for the postcard itself. My secrets vary from very hurtful, to very stupid. I have to give props to the man who created this.
This weekend was pretty rad. Rob and I headed for Holiday World early on Friday. I was sad to see that both the Legend and Pilgrim's Plunge (the world's TALLEST water ride!!!) were not going to be operating that day, but we headed first to the Voyage. Apparently it's the number one wooden coaster in the world right now, and that would be hold true for me since it's 1. super long, ride time was around 2 minutes, 2. line moved quickly, and 3. actual seat was not uncomfortable. However, it was so jostling it gave us headaches. Come on wooden rollercoaster engineers, please make your ride completely enjoyable!!!
We rode all the little rides and the Raven, and then headed for Splashin' Safari. Definitely the best part of the day. They had a large assortment of slides and they were all very exciting, plus the staff was very friendly at the end asking us how are ride was each time. After we were sufficiently wet, we changed and headed to Elizabeth's.
The next morning we headed for King's Island and went to Diamondback. It was reallllly awesome. Probably second to Millenium Force, but seeing as the people who own Cedar Pointe (Cedar Fair), now own all the Paramount and Knott's parks, it's no wonder why they built something similar to their number one coaster. However, I'm not sure if this buyout had all good things attached to it. Because it's no longer Paramount, all rides with affiliations to movies have been stripped of their titles, which shouldn't mean much, but now the Crypt, formally Tomb Raider, is nothing but a glorified spinning box. It used to be so cool, and now it's lame and sports a naked shy mutant bat. Lame. We spent the rest of the day going from ride to ride and then headed to Boomerang Bay, which had nothing on Splashin' Safari. However, a lot of their rides were hidden so we didn't get to ride everything before it closed.
We headed back to Firehawk, and had made it to the first row until they came over the speakers... "Due to ominous weather, we have to suspend the ride for now." seriously!? we waited all day to go!! we tried to wait it out, but the weather got nothing but worse so we made a break for the car, and came out looking like drowned rats. I don't mind being that wet, but not when I have technology I need to keep dry...
Anywho, that was the excitement for the weekend. We saw UP yesterday. Definitely not the best Pixar movie, but better than A Bug's Life. haha. However, I cried the most in this one. Actually in the first ten minutes. The whole montage of his life shot me right in the heart. But I think Wall-E, The Incredibles, and Finding Nemo are still my top three. They were just more believable... even if none of them are really that believable anyway. Oh well.
I need to finish Arrested Development. And unpack from college. And clean my room. Hmmm sounds like a busy night for me. Good.
Recently read books:
- Alphabet Weekends by Elizabeth Noble- This is a semi-romance novel... but there is a lot of heart in it. Also a lot of creativity. I think the idea of doing something different every weekend starting with the letter A is such a clever idea. You'd definitely get to know a person well.
- Blame It On Paris by Jennifer ... something- This is classic romance novel-esque in a that can never happen way. But it was flirty and romantic and I enjoyed it.
- Queen of Babble Gets Hitched- Meg Cabot- in true Meg Cabot form, very predictable. However, I love her wit and style of writing, so I just keep writing whatever she dishes out there. haha
Next up- Looking for Alaska by John Green. I'm on page 6 and it's very promising.
Currently Listening to A Whole New World- Aladdin
