Day I Don't Know What

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in Life Mar 12 2013 · 36 views

Trip ends tomorrow, did a waterpark yesterday, etcetera etcetera. We did a mystery dinner show tonight which was pretty cool, and very funny.
 
Anyway, hopefully I can return to normal time in a few days.
 
Sleuths Mystery Dinner was the place - it was a little cramped (I hate hate hate tiny tables), but otherwise fun. I unfortunately nailed the wrong guy, in a way. I said he did it on the orders of the guy that actually did it, so I was sort of half right I suppose? I don't really know how it's supposed to work.
 
I watched some "Bones" and "Castle" today, since my grandparents left us at the hotel for several hours and there was nothing else to do. One of the Bones episodes had the main character getting framed whilst having amnesia and voodoo and stuff, so that one in particular was very interesting to watch.

Islands of Adventure - DYNAMITE POPCORN! [Day 4]

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in Life Mar 09 2013 · 31 views

I bought a wand today! It is made of birch, I am going to guess 10-11 inches? long, and more of a rough cut stick than those fancy doodad wands you can buy. I'll post a picture here if I can get one. The wand shape is actually the shape I always used to pick whenever my friends and I used sticks for wands as we played Harry Potter (why I remember that detail is beyond me since it was like 8 years ago but whatever).
 
I really liked the Spider-Man and Harry Potter Forbidden Journey rides - I love that kind of 3D/4D special effect kinda ride when it's done well. Probably one of my favourite sort of rides.
 
I also enjoyed the Hulk rollercoaster - although due to a mistake by myself I ended up in the very front row, it was still awesome. Front row is always the best.
 
We watched the Mardi Gras parade, and I got seven of those plastic jewel necklaces you can buy at dollarama. Man, people went crazy over those!
 
I waited 45 minutes for a pepporoni pizza and then when other people got theirs whilst ordering after I did I rage quitted the place (after I made sure I had my pizza in hand of course, because late or not it's pizza, goodness).
 
I tried raspberry vanilla coke. I wish I had just raspberry though, because I've never had raspberry coke. I've had lime and cherry and vanilla and orange and all that sort of stuff, but never raspberry. Maybe I can get it tomorrow too? Doubtful.
 
I was soaked early on by the one river rapids ride in the world that makes sure every rider is soaked, and walked around all day in squelching, soaked shoes. Bleeeeeagh. I washed my feet for fifteen minutes when we got back to the hotel and they still feel gross. We missed a few other water rides, because I didn't feel in the mood to get soaked all over again. I'll probably try them out tomorrow or Monday if I bring a change of clothes or something.
 
I failed to mention it yesterday but I got a stick of dynamite that has popcorn inside yesterday in St. Augustine, so I can light it and throw it and then have popcorn. Although I must admit that the first thing that popped into my head when I saw it was "heist film prop".
 
Anyway that is it for today and I'll post again tomorrow.

Living at Orlando [Day 3]

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in Life Mar 08 2013 · 28 views

Day 3 of the trip.
 
We took an extended stop this afternoon in St. Augustine. We took a short tour around, and my brother and I spent an hour or so at this old fort thing taking pictures of stuff. Maybe if I ever get ahold of them I can share some on here.
 
Nothing much of interest, although disappointment - we have 3 days for 2 parks, nothing else planned, three days where we are doing nothing and have no lodgings scheduled, and then another three days of travelling. Color me disappointed - not even a water park.
 
2013, you find a way to make everything suck.
 
On the bright side of life, the place we're staying at is pretty nice and spacious. Just wish it was a little closer to Universal.

I EXPLORE THE UNIVERSE!

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in BZPower, Life, To Disney Mar 06 2013 · 46 views

I'm off to Florida today, and you're very welcome for the extended warning! I will be doing my best to get online each night, so you Mafia folk need not worry, and I will be writing up a series of journals with regards to my experiences at Universal, Legoland (pick a brick at last finally yesh), some chocolate factory, and anything else in Orlando.
 
Now I must teleport away and begin my adventures!

Breaking Windows and Other News

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in Life, My Little Pony Feb 18 2013 · 75 views

So I broke a window two nights ago, but nothing really happened except that we now have a window with some holes and a lot of cracks. It was actually an accident and I didn't get in trouble, so hurrah! Something actually went right for me in real life!
 
Because to be quite honest, 2013 sucks.
 
2012 was probably the greatest year of my life so far (which isn't saying much because I only remember like ten years or something if that), and it's not just that 2013 can't really measure up, but I dunno... something out there just doesn't want this year to turn out well for me. Every single thing I do seems to end up bad in some form, which isn't doing much for my procrastination troubles.
 
Also, I'd like to say that I really enjoyed the My Little Pony Season 3 finale, and I think there should be more musically oriented episodes.
 
That's all, folks.
