Had so much fun at the beach. 9 hour drive, but still. It was fun and highly needed.
Went to Downtown Charleston and walked around. Ate supper at Sticky Fingers. Kind of a Southern chain. It was good.
Did a little shopping. Got a Charleston T-shirt. It was the word "Trip" and a hippie van on it. It was trippy! LOL! Went to a cool riverside park called The Battery and saw a jellyfish.
Various beach visits.
I SAW DOLPHINS!
Ate at a cool seafood place called Gilligan's. We all sang the theme song to Gilligan's Island. Yes, I know. It's cheesy and lame. LOL!
Went to Fort Sumter. Took an awesome boat ride. Saw more dolphins!
Then we came home. Ta da!

How the beach trip is going...
It's going pretty well!
I'm not as burned as I thought I would be. Only my shoulders a little bit.
Man......as I'm writing this the 3rd firetruck drove past our house with its sirens on. Must be serious then.
We've gone to bed at 3am and have been waking up just before noon......I love it.
We've gone to the beach at low tide....when the waves were better at high tide.
Went to a cool submarine museum in Charleston.
Went to Piggly Wiggly twice!
Now I'm on our screen porch! YAY!

So....
Dead period's over.
First cheer practice in two weeks is this afternoon.
Three more weeks of conditioning left.
School starts in about 30 days. It was a short summer. Went by fast. At least I went places!
SAYMA, Knoxville, going to West Virginia this coming weekend, beach trip the last week of July. And that's my summer. With various cheer activities. FUN!

Eclipse Soundtrack!
I bought the Eclipse soundtrack at Hot Topic today (and got a Gay Pride peace sign button for $2 and a frequent buyer's gift card for free)!
I love all of the songs on it.
Top 3 Favorites:
1. Life on Earth - Band of Horses
2. Eclipse (All Yours) - Metric
3. Neutron Star Collision (Love is Forever) - Muse
Life on Earth is SO PRETTY! Look it up.
The other two are cool. Of course since it's Muse. Haha!
But anywho, I can't wait for Breaking Dawn. It's sad that it's almost over.

Violence in Nashville...
I have a friend who was violently assaulted at a place he used to work at on Monday night. It was a racial/gay bashing attack.
He was thrown on the ground by the neck and was called the N word and faggot.
He's in a neck brace and a foot brace because a table fell on it.
This was encouraged by the owner. The place was established for the purpose of equality.
Fellow Quakers who read this, hold him in the Light.
When will some people learn this is NOT okay?

Rest of July
So I'm actually going to be doing stuff soon.
Tomorrow: Going to see Eclipse again tomorrow. My friend Heather had nobody here willing to go see it, so I'm going with her.
Thursday: Hangin' at the Florence Mall with long-time family friends who are moving to Florida.
Next weekend (the 16th): My brother might have a gig at the Black Feather and after that, we're going to West Virginia for mom's family reunion.
Last week of July: Beach trip with my friend Laura to Isle of Palms, South Carolina. "Twill be awesome!
So yeah, dead period ends on Friday. Sigh. My shoulder isn't completely healed yet, so I'm still doubtful I would want to tumble on it on Thursday after Florence. I'm just taking precautions in case I might injure it. I wouldn't mind being injured. It'd hurt and suck like hell, but my schedule would be free and I'd be able to go to the SAYF retreats I would have to miss (August, October, and March....as far as I know).
Band camp tonight was okay. Semi-productive.
But yeah. That's me for now.

Opinions, opinions!
I have a friend mad at me because I called them out on their opinions....which don't even exist. It's over stupid things, but that's us. We fight over stupid things.
It's about Twilight, which I do like and they don't, and that's fine.
But it's not fine when I've read all the books and have seen all of the movies and they've only unwillingly seen the first two movies. I highly doubt they paid attention, which is also fine, but if you're going to have an opinion about something, make sure you pay attention and not just sit there and mock it.
If you want to prove you have an opinion about a book, try reading it. Same for a movie. Try watching it.
It's okay to not like something and not want to see/read it, but just don't say it sucks unless you actually know what it's about.

Eclipse.
These movies just keep getting better and better! The books got worse and worse (sorta), but the movies are just awesome.
It was seriously epic. Cool battle scenes, sweet love scenes, and it was just overall: so good!
I loved it! Can't wait for the last two.
I also saw the HP7 trailer again and I'm pumped for that. That will definitely be the best film ever.......well two films. Haha! Can't wait.
I'm jealous that a couple of friends get to go/and have gone to Harry Potter Land at Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida. My ultimate vacation! So going there when I graduate if not next summer!
