Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

I had no idea I was going until 1 day before the trip. Thanks for planning ahead family... My dad can't come cuz he hates mom, well great so I'm stuck with her. Well I hate her too but I had to deal with it.

She tried to give me hell during the whole thing, but she can't give me hell if she can't find me or if I'm surrounded by relatives.

So on my birthday I was on a plane for 2 hours, missed a Project Runway promotion at the mall, and did nothing for a majority. I missed my dad and so far hated the day.

Then out of the blue one of my cousin's neighbor had tickets to the White Sox game at the US Cellular One Field, she got them from work but couldn't go. Cool my first ball game!!! My seats were high up but not nosebleed, thank goodness. They seats cost $11.40, OMG the "cheap seats" at Yankee Stadium and Citi Field will cost you at LEAST $100. Kiss my a** both of you stadiums, you alienate your own fans with your high prices. Ps. A-Rod sucks a**. Get rid him. You pay him over 75 million to do nothing. Give that back to the fans!

Anywho the game was awesome, they White Sox won, the hot dogs were good, the fireworks kicked a**. Ps. Fireworks every White Sox home run! And after the game a fireworks show sometimes!

So the next day I went to my Uncle's home that is far out. I was certain relatives I haven't seen in years! So I was coming up the basement from playing with the kids and i hit my toe on the last step. I do that alot at home so I figured no big deal. I hurts but not that much.

So we all go to the kitchen to eat and on of my little cousin said "What's THAT!". Blood on the floor, I was it, who is that from?

Nope remember my toe, well I didn't feel that I split the bottom's skin off a bit. So I was slowing but surly bleeding, that equals apparently MASS CHAOS! Lucky after everyone stops panicking *I wasn't, cuz I didn't feel anything*, my relatives were mostly nurses so I was bandaged up, for all of my vacation. So much for relaxing.

But playing Rock Band and Rock Band 2 all week was super fun. I suck at drums tho.

The last day I went to Navy Pier in Chicago, I only drove thru/ boated thru the city alas. Maybe next time. Well anyway the Pier was awesome, and awesomely hot that day. Lake Michigan is SO big, looks like the ocean! Well the Air Force was there practicing for the Air and Sea Show. I was Bi-Planes having "dogfights" and the Blue Angels doing crazy stuff! The passed us SO close my ear drums I thought would break! TOTALLY AWESOME!

So to say I had a fun time, but I wanted to see the city more. But I did see where they filmed Batman Begins and Batman Dark Knight places. All in Chicago. I wished they filming in the REAL Gotham City, my city New York City, but New Yorkers can't get over explosions and 9/11. Well I say move on and show NO FEAR. I saw it all too, but we must not let them win. God get over it! Just take precautions. Jeez. Cuz of all that hysteria we can't film anything about Batman here. WTF!

As a huge Batman fan, I am very sorry and sore to know NYC is such a pain in the a** for filming Batman.
