Ally Pally

I decided to return to tumblr — mostly because I’m searching for a feeble attempt to avoid doing homework.

My historical investigation is a piece of shit and I am prolonging the inevitable shittiness as long as humanly possible.

There is an inexplicable white bar running across the screen. I’m assuming it’s just my computer and not a glitch in tumblr coding. 

Nothing interesting to say.

But did I ever have anything interesting to say to begin with? Eh. You don’t have anything interesting to say either so I guess we’re even. I’ll work on this.

It’s seems weird to me when people say “they’re too white, they need to tan.” Would you go up to a particularly dark-skinned person and say they’re too dark they need to bleach? I don’t think you would. =/

So we deparated the DFW at 8:00 AM. I bought a bottle of water and an issue of SPIN before we left. No one tells you how loud it gets on a plane. I could hardly hear my mom when she talked to me. This was my first time flying since I was six and we went to Washington D.C. and the only thing I remember from that flight is going through a cloud, and finding that very exhilerating. Connecticut is very green. Apparently you can turn left on red, and the highways look very differently. The roads are very winding, the houses are cute, and everyone seems to disregard speed limits. Speaking of which, the high way speed limit is 55. Weird, right?

So Dad went to work this morning. He works for Sikorsky, so he travels up to Connecticut to the main plant to… do engineering things. So while he was at work, me and mom went to mall. Got a pretzel. Bored, I suggested we drive to New Haven to see Yale University. Ok, she says. So we go. Let me tell you, New Haven is a bit of an ugly town. It has it quirky, unique areas, and other parts look quite dingy. We must have driven around New Haven for forty-five minutes looking for Yale. And I think we saw every inch of New Haven except Yale. Haha. So Mom said we’d go back some other time with Dad.

We tried to find our way back to the hotel and ended up lost for another two hours. But we finally found our way back. It has been both a pointless and worthwhile day. Now we’re just waiting for Dad to get off work. The excitement of our vacation should begin Thursday because that’s when we spend time in New York, also on Friday, and part of Saturday. We’re going to take the train into NY, get off at Grand Central Station, and stay at the Marriott nearby. I plan to visit the independant record store Other Music while we’re there. It’s in East Village. We’re going to see the Statue of Liberty and take a tour of Pratt too. Then on Sunday we’re going to Rhode Island to do some shopping and take a tour of those fancy mansions that Dad likes so much. And then we’re coming back on Monday.

I’ll upload the photos when I get back.

Until then, Au’revoir.

Wow I always miss out on those IB junior photos. I always leave before they take them. XD Oh well, I don’t really consider myself an IB person anyway. Although at the same time, I kinda do.

Hunchback of Notre Dame really does teach kids big words.

Licentiousness? Consternation? Calumny? That’s why my vocab is so damn big - she says so eloquently.
