Omg I missed everyone so much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had an amazing time in the sunshine state - Florida. I'm a bit tanned, I think, I can't really tell... oh well.
So, here's a little re-cap of our trip ("our" being Britt and I):
Sunday morning bright and early we left. we stayed overnight in Fredricksburg, Virginia. we took off again the next day at the crack of dawn and drove all the way to the capital of Florida, Jacksonville. We had a day to kill before we were set to go to Disney so we went shopping in Orlando :). Of course I bought stuff, I fell in love with a store called Papaya... amazing stuff in there... anyways, after that we stayed overnight in Orlando, near enough to Disney.
In the morning we checked into our Hotel and went straight to the Magic Kingdom! Britt and I went on Space Mountain 4 times :D it was so fun. We did all the other stuff too like Thunder Mountain, Splash Mountain and... *shudder* It's a Small World *eye twitches* I had that song stuck in my head for 3 days after that... anywho, that night we ate at the Crystal Palace and watched the fireworks at the castle.
The next day we headed to MGM-Studios. The first thing we did was go see a Beauty And The Beast show, it was really cute. we did a whole bunch of other things next, then we went on the Rockin' RollerCoaster twice in a row. I loved it. I... Went on the Tower of Terror... Loved it!!!!!!! lmao, not really. I like, cried the whole time, no not really, not at all actually, but I didn't go on it again. haha.
Next we decided to go to Universal Studios and Adventure Island. They were amazing. Went on all the good rides at Universal but I felt sick by the end of the day so we didn't get to go on the Hulk and the other big Coasters at Adventure Island :( . Oh well, an excuse to go back :D! At Universal there was a Jurassic Park section and there was this ride that was like the Splash but... uh... better? But I really didn't want to go on it because as most of you know, I hate getting wet... So we agreed not to go on it, then we get on this ride that's like an amazon thingy in Jurassic Park and the people behind us are like "I hope you're ready to get wet!" ... It turned out to be that ride I didn't want to go on, but it was too late to get off... oh well. It was pretty scary... and we DID get soaked, but the ride got jammed or something so we sat there waiting to get off long enough to dry off. hah.
Saturday, hm, oh yeah, we went to Epcot. It was pretty cool, we went on all the rides I think. My faves were the Test Track and the Mars thing. I was so nervous to go on the Mars one because there were all these signs warning people about all these things about the ride, and how some people shouldn't go on. There were even friggin barf bags inside the little shuttle!... The ride was nothing, it was pretty much just spinning but it was supposed to simulate being launched in a rocket going to Mars. For supper we ate at a French restaurant in the little world pavillion things. We spoke to out waiter in french and he was all impressed (he was from France) then he started talking really fast in french to us with a really strong accent, he got pretty hard to follow but I got most of it :). I don't think Britt did, did you? :P
Next we went to the Animal Kingdon. OMG I SAW SO MANY TIGERS!!! I'm so extatic, I have like 30 pictures on my camera devoted to just pictures of tigers! they were amazing! We went on some cool rides here too, like Expedition Everest where you were being chased my the Yeti, it scared the crap out of me! lmao. Ugh, then there was this 3D "It's Tough To Be A Bug" movie. it was sooooo scary. You got poked in the back by wasps, shoved in the butt by termites and cockroaches, spiders dropped from the ceiling and you also got sprayed with water. Britt and I both hated it, we jumped sooo many times! It was sad... There was also this ride called Kali River Rapids where you got completely drenched, that we went on twice... I don't know WHY. *grumbles* heh, oh well, it was a fun ride minus the part where get soaked.
Monday was our first day of rest. We sat by the pool at the hotel all day (our hotel by the way was Coronado Springs, it was Mexican) it was a beatiful day with a beautiful view (Right Britt :D?) We tanned... er sorry, I tanned, the others burned. heh.
Our last full day at our Disney Resort we went to Blizzard Beach in the morning. I wasn't feeling well again so I sat out on all the rides. We only stayed half a day because it wasn't that big and there were a lot of people, the rest of the day we spent at the pool again :D. haha. Soaked up some more rays. Enjoyed another nice view :P.
Wednsday we hung around some more, mostly packing and stuff. we left at around noon and headed to Tampa where we met up with some old friends of Britt's dad. They lived on a golf course... so that means... they had a golf cart... :D. Britt and I were driving around in it, flooring it :D. I of course was the better driver :P, mind you, I did almost fling Britt off the side of the cart when I pulled a U-turn :D. Haha, my bad.
That night, I slept in a king sized bed... it was amazing, it was the first night in a week in a half that I didn't have Britt's ass rubbing against me all night. Apparently though, in the morning when I was turning off the alarm, I punched Britt in the face... XD Oops.
Omg, Thursday, we went to Busch Gardens. What a crazy theme park! we went on most of the major RollerCoasters, except for the Sheikra, which had like a 200 foot vertical drop, the one thing my stomach can't handle... and it was really high and Britt is afraid of heights. It wasn't the best ride for either of us. But we did go on the other major rides. Gwazi, a huge wooden roller coaster, was our first ride. We went on Kumba twice, a really awesome roller coaster. We went on the Python and the Scorpion, 2 not so huge roller coasters. Then we went on the Montu twice, its another roller coster when your feet dangle and you do all this crazy stuff, it was my fave. we also saw some shows and we did this ride that's like the Vertigo at LaRonde, it's called the Pheonix. Britt wanted to kill me for dragging her on it :D...
Ah yes, Friday morning, got up at the crack of dawn and left for home. We stopped in the same town but in a different hotel, a bigger fancier one:). Haha. It was really nice.
In the morning we went to Washington, D.C. We saw the Lincoln and Washington memorials. The Korea and Vietnam war plaque things. The Capitol Building and The Whitehouse. We saw some other stuff too like Kennedy's grave site and all his family too. Thousdands of graves... It was really sad...
After all that we took off again and managed to make it home that night! mind you it was like 1:30am. But still, at least I have a day of rest before going back to school.
Glad to be home. A lot of stuff happened while I was gone... Gotta catch up.

Excited!!!!
Yaaaay. Christmas soon!
I was hoping you guys could send me a list of a couple things to choose from for what you want for x-mas. I'm totally out of ideas! Me? I want... well not much other than the digital camera my mom and I might share (if we can decided whether to get the purple one or the red one [I want the purple, she wants the red... if she gets the red, I'm just going to go out and get my own...]) as our big present :). Anywho, I should probably go, I have school in the morning and I still have some homework to do *rolls eyes* fun!
I'll keep writing soon!
G'night

hey all! well, i just wanted to write about my day yesterday (which was positively amazing) first off, Lee came to get me and drive us to the mall. we met Kay there and shopped for what the other two neeed for the Stratford trip :). Yeah, i'm not going to Stratford... I wanted to though... oh well, it was fun 'cause i got to help pick out outfits for the two that WERE going ;) for lunch we went to Subway and HOOOOLY SHIT, i bought a 12' o_O!!! ok, i didn't finish it then... but I did finish it when I got home. Well, before we went home, Lee's mom came and got us and brought us to the movies. Less really didn't feel like going but her mom did... so when we invited her mom instead of her (lmao) she just HAD to come... "Are you kidding???? I can't leave my MOTHER unsupervised with my friends!" lmfao, that was grrreat. Anyways, we saw "Just Like Heaven" it was soooo good, I cried sooooooooooo much :( it was super sad, it's one of those movies i'm going to have to buy and watch by myself to get the fully desired crying effect hahaha. Ha, and it was really funny, 'cause after the movie all we heard was "Kay! Lee!!! Jazz!!!!" lmao, we all turned around and Stef was standing behind us! hehe, turns out she went to see the same movie at the same time!!! whaaaat a coinkidink! Besdies that though, all in all, it was a pretty great day :) thanks guys! -Jazz xo
