Just a General Update
Yeah, I know I broke my promise. I haven't made my huge update yet and here's the reason: Still figuring out which pictures I want to upload, I've been working many hours at GameStop since I was on vacation, and I've been spending my free time away from the computer (not far though).

Anyways, instead of posting about my trip, which I will do in a two part series later today or tomorrow, I will inform you all of what I've been up to. Yesterday I got a DS Lite finally. A real sweet one at that. It has a metallic red cover with a flat black bottom and inside. This flat black means it doesn't smudge at all and the metallic red hardly smudges at all. It's pretty. I got it with a Brain Age 2 bundle. It came with Brain Age 2 (of course) and a fancy carrying case.

Also I've signed up for my college classes. I'm taking English, Math, Sociology, and Chinese. Only 4 classes, but I can't take anything for my major yet since I'm only going to a community college. It's all good though. I can get my general classes squared off before I focus on my major. Plus, it's saving me money like room and board, food, and the classes are cheaper as well. I think it's a good plan.

Went to the Kalahari in Wisconsin Dells over the weekend for a relaxing time. Our suite room was so nice. It had like a 10 foot ceiling, 1 King bed, 2 Queen beds, 2 bathrooms, 2 sinks, a fireplace, 2 TVs, and 2 closets. We also had a walkout little area that connected to the outdoor water park. Only problem was that it rained all day Saturday and Sunday so we had to stick to the indoor water park. Cousins absolutely loved the place, but as usual they annoyed us very much. They came over to our room all the time even though they had a suite of their own. We ordered pizza for ourselves Friday night, but they each had to have a piece before they got their own. Whenever they went to the water park they insisted we follow even though we weren't technically hanging out together all the time. I brought my Wii and they fought over who would play it. The list goes on with our dear cousins. It still was a fun weekend, but it sort of ended on a bad note because Jean was bossing over everyone and Ricky was being the timid guy he is. Family troubles for you.

Speaking of ending on bad notes, on our way home we learned that lots of counties in SE Minnesota were getting flash floods, including our county. Luckily nothing happened to our home, just our sump pump was running lots. The creek a couple yards from our backyard flooded so the water was way up to our neighbor's garden, which is like a whole acre flooded. It receded within a day though. I suppose most everyone has heard about the 6 deaths, 2 from Houston and 4 from Winona. It's a shame since Minnesota has had all this dry weather for the summer and then it rains for a weekend and floods happen. But I digress.

I went to a movie last night with some GameStop guys (and two girls). We saw Superbad. It was a pretty dang hilarious movie, but way too many penis drawings at the end there. Wow. I tried my best to overlook the stereotypical high school partying that only points out our shortcomings in society, but luckily the humor helped me ignore that for the most part. Very original. That's how I saw it. You could easily relate to those characters at one point, which was great. Some stuff was too far fetched, but that's Hollywood. Watch it if you've thought about going to it. Just know that it's more of a guy movie, but women can enjoy it too.
