Went to an aquarium yesterday! LOTS OF PICS AND VIDS IN THIS POST.
Hello! Hi, my dears. *hugs* Thanks so much for the comments! You guys are great. :) Arigatou! Welcome back Raisha, Oli-chan (missed you!!), and snow girl!! It's been quite a while for you guys. O__O Same to you, wolfe-chan, and it was great hearing from you again Rache [though I think your commentS got cut off, lol! <33 Um, but yeah, I appreciate everything that was said~ I love you!! ALL OF YOU. ♥
Shorter thanking, but whatever. You guys know how much I appreciate you. I just got to get to the bulk of the matter here cause dinner will probably be ready soon. Jeez, I keep getting less and less computer time! ~__~ At least when my brother doesn't work. It's so stupid. ARGH. Anyhoo, I got my hair cut today!! ^^ Much shorter than it was before~~ And my stylist straightened it; it really looked a lot like Perfume's Nocchi's hairstyle in that pic. I have a bowl cut...I think that's what they call it. My hair is normally very wavy/curly, you know, but as I said the stylist straightened it like she did before. So it's different looking...for now. Soon enough it will be back to its wavy ways, lol. I tried taking a good pic of myself to show you guys, but it ended up way too atrocious, so I'll refrain. You get the gist of how short it is now though. It was down to my shoulders, a little past, when I decided I NEED IT SHORTER AGAIN. And to think, my hair used to be down past my butt...lol...just 4 months ago or something! Now I like it shorter. XD I wanted the inverted style (that's what they call it), like I mentioned in my last post...but, she said it wouldn't work well for me cause of my curly hair. :/ And how my layers were before, so whatever. I like it now. >_< For now. I'm sure I'll be dissatisfied soon enough! *fickle*
Thanks to whoever commented on my post on my world yesterday! Yes, I posted there for once. Just a short one...about my fun day yesterday~ But now you'll get the elongated version! Hope you don't mind. ^^;; 'Course you don't. Rather, you're used to it by now. Anyhoo, yesterday we went to the Camden Aquarium!! AKA an aquarium in New Jersey. :) Our next-door state neighbor, lol. Just a bridge away! What bridge? This one [yes, I took a photo of it, once we got to the NJ side]:
Sorry, dA uploaded thumb. XD But yeah! We left a bit earlier than normal, so I was tired, lol. We made it in record time though...it only took a half hour or so to get from our house to NJ. Usually it would take at least an hour, but there was zero traffic~ I had no clue that Camden was sooo freaking close to Philly. It's really wow. Here's the Philly skyline from the NJ side! Lol.
Yes, in case you can't tell, this post will be full of photos and things!! ^_^ Um, when we arrived...we went straight to the aquarium. It was a lot of fun. Lots of different fish (of course) and animals...like hippos and penguins. >D We walked around a lot, and unfortunately I chose my flip-flops. So my feet were tired. XD Oh, and we had to do some extra walking from the parking lot dad chose to park in...cause it was the wrong one. We went to what we thought was the entrance, and it turned out it wasn't. ^^;; We had to walk a ways down until we found the REAL aquarium, lol. Once there...the first area you hit is the food court! These establishments sure know the customers well. Or well, they know how to squeeze the most money from us!! Food, food, food, then you get to see the attractions, and THEN at the end of different sections (A-D), you come across the SOUVENIR SHOP. Hahaha. Love it! Spend money when you get there and right as you're trying to leave.
I ended up getting an adorable stuffed animal hippo. ♥ I named him Herman. X3 Here are videos I took of the hippos and some awesome fish. So please take a look!!
And here is the best penguin shot I got. It's quite hard to photograph them swimming all around, but this guy decided to pose for a bit!
Ok! So that's basically the aquarium trip. After that, we got some delicious lunch at this deli...we got yummyful cheese steaks. <333 Great and authentic Philly cheese steaks. Gawd, they were so good. D: And after that, we went to this asian market! It was sooooo cool! Lots of fun~~ So many cool asian foods...Chinese, Japanese, Thai, etc. We were practically the only white people there, yay. Lol. It was so amusing to look at all the Japanese foods especially. *__* We ended up buying lots of snacks. I LOVE kikori no kirikabu!! So good!! Chocolate and cookie little tree stumps. >3 Man, I only got one box though...and I could eat a billion. Uh, we also got some strawberry mocchi (daifuku)...but I don't care for them. ^^; I'm really not a strawberry person it turns out! Lol. But otherwise, I might've liked them. Mocchi's texture is so freaking awesome.
So yeah! After that buying spree, we went home! :) It was a fun trip out. Tomorrow my dad and brother are going to the NJ shore to do some fishing, so yay, I'll be free from them. DX Finally. Corey has 3 days off in a row this week; I'm through with 2 of them almost, so one more left. XD Yuppers. Ok...I think that's all I have to say now!! I love you guys. I'll try to comment when I can! Oh, and Meg's grandma's surgery for the rest of the cancer was today. Let's hope and pray it all went well! Take care!! ♥
