Hey
I wish I could have written last night but I ended up sleeping at like 2 because I was playing Taboo with my cousin for a long time =). Super really fun. It was more of a vacation than the dinner =P. It was the first formal dinner of the cruise. I haven't really dressed up in a really long time so I guess it was nice. Kelvin gelled my hair into a fohawk. Apparently I don't look too bad in it. Excpet I wouldn't go through the hassle of claying my hair everyday . It would just take too much time.
So anyways, yesterday was fun. Newport itself was more of a historical attraction and the weather was semi-gloomy and it started raining after a while. But t'is fun talking to my cousins about cameras because they all have Canon (canon's awesome =P ) So we were super-marco-ing and color accenting everything. It's good spending more time with my cousins.
Today was our third day. 3 out of 7. Almost half over. Woke up and went to continental breakfast to find that it was amazingly sunny today =)
Oh right, backtracking for a moment, Last night I went out for a night time stroll with my parents to the back of the boat where not too many people were. It was dark and absolutely beautiful. As I looked out towards the moon, the ocean just spanner so far and the moon left a beautiful reflection on the water's surface. I guess I haven't really been to nature in a while this summer. I've wanted to but it seemed like I never got the time. Anyways it was amazing. =) I've never seen water like that before. It was so...majestic because it was just so VAST! And so praise the Lord for making such an awesome earth =P because it is. And yesterday I was able to see a glimpse of God's creative, awesomeness.
So today we stopped in Boston and it was nothing like Newport. Major city full of people and sadly smoke and buildings and just in general, it was sooo much bigger and different from Newport. Me and my sister didn't know very much about Boston. I acutally only know about the Boston Red Sox. But anyways, we went to Harvard =)
I've never been on a university campus in the States before. And it was like Harvard. It's like the place for all the smart/rich people and everything . I was walking around in it and actually there were tours going on but anyways, all the parents were wearing suits and everything looked so expensive. It was interesting. But I think the most awesome thing was the subway adventure we had. To get to Harvard from a separate piece of land, we took the subway and that was pretty fun. I've realized that public transportation is always super fun with friends =)
So that was Boston. Came back. Watched Ghosts of Girlfriends Past. It was alright. I guess as far as movies went. The comments made about women and dating were really...well worldly and crude but it had it's cute moments. Afterward we went to Club Fusion for Family Karaoke. I sang the BSB song Shape of my Heart. Haven't really sung karoake in a while in front of people before but it was alright i guess. And then it was family Disco for like 5 songs after that. Kind of embarassing but it was with my family and random miscellaneous people so...it's alright to do crazy dumb things =P But i seriously don't understand the purpose of going to a club. The songs just have beats. They don't really make any sense lyrically. And it's the same body movement for 30 movements. hmph
Anyways it's getting late and I should sleep. I"ll write more tomorrow i guess =P
