Hey guys, I got back from my vacation just last night and I was too tried to go onto the computer to go on Gaia. I'm trying to remember what exactly I did when I was there, and I'll try to organize it into days, so please bare with me. sweatdrop Oh, and if there's something that I missed, I'll update it to let you guys know on the details and such.

Day 1: (Sunday, July 13th, 200 cool
Well, we reached Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas at about 11:00 AM. My parents, mostly my dad, was happy to see his one of his older brothers at the airport because he hasn't seen him for over 30 years. eek Yeah, I was shocked myself lol. sweatdrop Anyways, when we left the airport, it was very humid and hot, about roughly 35-40 degrees celcius. Whew! sweatdrop It took us about 45 minutes to get to their home, and my dad's brother has two boys, Nick and Alex. Nick is 17, and Alex is 16. They're bother pretty cool, they like playing video games and reading anime and stuff...But the thing is that that's all they do lol. sweatdrop Play Xbox 360, and read anime. I'm surprised that they aren't fat lol. They don't have jobs either, but they're still cousins. razz Anywho, about an hour later, our other uncle comes in too! (My dad's other old brother from Wisconsin) He has two boys as well, Soleil and Sawyer. Soleil is...About 13? I think lol, and his brother is 12. Anyways, they're cool, but they're also annoying lol. sweatdrop Especially Sawyer, because he's one of those special needs people... sweatdrop But Soleil is like, weird annoying. He always says like, "like your face" or "your mom". sweatdrop scream Oh well, we make fun of him, just because he looks like a Mexican. xd *sigh*

Day 2: (Monday, July 14th, 200 cool :
Hmm...I think Day 2 was when we went to the Mall, I can't remember which one because there's a few malls that we went to...Like the Galleria Mall, the North East Mall, and some others... sweatdrop Oh well, all we did was walk around, eat, and buy some clothes. Oh! I got a stormtrooper t-shirt saying "Support Our Troops". xd And the other one is a Venom t-shirt. 3nodding I'm pretty sure that's what we did.

I'm trying really, really hard on thinking about what we did. sweatdrop Hmm...Oh! We drove to Galveston! Yeah lol, Galveston, Texas. The South side of Texas, very close to the Gulf of Mexico. The drive was about a few hours... sweatdrop It was very boring lol, oh well...We stayed at a hotel, it looked very fancy on the outside but average on the inside lol. It was just off the docks, so it was cool. After we got organized, we all went out swimming, and saw a bunch of hot girls. *gurgles* Ahem! sweatdrop It was all very fun, and after we got back, we ordered pizza from Domino's Pizza. We walked there, since it wasn't very far. Oh, and our other cousin, Larry (About 26 years old) tagged along with us, and we were joking about going to eat at Hooters lol. razz

Okay, this is the day that we go to the Space Center, in Houston, Texas. It definitely wasn't what I expected...At all, it was all for kids and stuff, but we went on one of those tour train thingys that pulls passengers. We saw the stuff that they used to put in space and all, but it still wasn't as satisfying... sweatdrop Oh, the only hightlight of that day was when we saw the Spacecrafts that were went into space. 3nodding THAT was cool lol. When we got back, we went back to the hotel, where my younger brother Micheal, a year younger than me, saw his two "friends" that he met on the elevator. The two girls were from Montgomery, Texas. A small, small town lol. And they were very younger... sweatdrop Like 13-14 years old...Oh well, whatever suits my brothers satisfaction lol. xd Anyways, they were wearing their bikinis, as girls usually do, playing on the elevator, going on every floor, and yelling out loud on every floor, like "f***ing spicy chicken wings!" and stuff like that lol. sweatdrop Anyways, that was fun, and he was thinking about getting their e-mails and stuff, but he bailed out. Lol.
