| I know i know, i'm doing a shitty job keeping up with this site. MY BAD! I guess i forgot about it lol.
I got Grand Theft Auto IV the day it came out last week...very intense game. The city in the game is based off of New York City...and since i LIVE in NYC it's pretty amazing how accurate the game city is to the real thing.
I'm typing up an English paper now...i'll try to update this thing at least once this week lol later!

| I cant believe this shit...
Next door to me there's an apartment that's been under construction for got knows how many years now. Yesterday morning they were drilling like mad and we could hear it all through our house and it sounded as if they were drilling our own walls. Then at one point, while i'm eating breakfast in bed, the drilling gets really loud and a hole starts to form through my bedroom wall! And i go "WOAH WOAH HOLD IT!!!!!" and they stopped and acted like it was nothing (fuckin dumbasses). And i'm like "MOM COME LOOK AT THIS!!!" and she sees it and starts yelling at the construction workers through the wall. The hole is about the size of two fists...pretty big.
Anywayz, that pissed us all off. So what they did was put tape to cover the other side. Real fuckin handy! They better fix this soon...

| I almost forgot to get back on here cuz....well...i just bought Call of Duty 4 the other day LOL. Speaking of which, i got a Playstation3 this past Christmas which i REALLY wanted so i could get DMC4...which i DID get. It was a good game but i enjoyed DMC3 so much better when i first played it. And Dante fought better in that game too but whatever.
So first i got Assassin's Creed which i beat in 3 or 4 days. Then i got Unreal Tournament 3. Then DMC4 and now CoD4. Up next is Grand Theft Auto 4 (so many 4s).
Anywayz...never play CoD4 cuz that shit is addicting.

| My first official post in a whileso i guess i'll write about my trip to Costa Rica over the summer. The reason i'm writing about it is cuz it turned out to be a life changing experience for me. I learned a lot.
It was a teen tour trip that i joined but it was also to do community service. So from New York i had to get on a plane to Florida where i was to meet the group i'd be going with. After that, we'd all head to Costa Rica from there. So i got to Florida and saw the rest of my group in the airport...not what i expected them to be. It was 12 girls and 2 other guys. One of the guys, Joe, was tall, very hefty, wore glasses...everyone expected him to be some sort of brain wizz or nerd...for lack of a kinder word. But then again i cant think of any nice stereotypes. The other guy was Miles who seemed okay i guess. Not that tall, not that short, but very athletic looking like myself (he turned out to be an asshole by the end of the trip though lol).
The girls seemed okay at first i guess. A couple of them seemed like spoiled rich girls that i'd NEVER EVER WANNA TALK TO!!! A couple of them i got along with right away though.
Let me mention now that most of this trip was in the wild...or the middle of practically nowhere. We helped build a village that was still pretty early in development, he helped teach kids english and played with them, and we helped at schools. Aside from that we did some fun stuff though like zip lining, kayaking (what an experience), rafting, and so on.
I can tell this is gonna be a long post so i'm gonna try to cut it down a bit lol.
So yea...i learned a lot by being with the natives there. I know some Spanish so we were able to talk about a lot of stuff and the people were great (and omg so was the food!!!). I also bonded with people i never expected to, including the spoiled rich girls i mentioned earlier lol. Joe wasnt who everyone expected him to be and turned out to be THEE funniest guy on the trip haha! So that taught me not to be so quick to judge people. I also learned a lot from being with people who dont have it as easy as i do in New York. These people had to do hard labor everyday, and work in the rain everyday (we were there during the rainy season and it did rain at least a little bit every single day we were there). I appreciated my life a lot more.
I have to admit though, i loved being in the wild lol. At one point during the kayaking part of the trip we set up camp at an island we stopped at (no people lived there) and we only had enough food for the 3 main meals of the day (and i always eat in between those meals haha). So me, Joe, and Miles would go out looking for coconut trees and try to find ways to get them down from the trees. Throw rocks, shake the trees, even climb them haha. Then we had to find sharp rocks to break them open with. Never in my life did i picture myself hunting for coconuts in the wild haha.
Maybe i'll write more about the kayaking part of the trip later...cuz there's a lot to say about that part lol. Later!
