   My Weekend
I just got back from my weekend at Vegas, and it was great! I stayed in a hotel called the Atrium with my Mom, Dad, and elder brother just outside the Strip, and it was a hotel without a casino. It was right next to the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. There was a billboard right in front of it that said: KoRn playing August 12 & 13 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, with special guest: Dir En Grey! I was staying in a otel right next to Dir en Grey! We were there for the 11th, 12th, and half of today, the 13th. I can't believe it! And we got to get up right next to the tour buses! My dad and I will go see Dir en Grey in concert this Saturday, so even though I didn't get to catch a glimpse at them this weekend, I can always see them this coming one!

It was a great weekend, the first day we just relaxed after our long drive. Well, not really a long drive, 4 hours, not so bad. But, we hung out at the pool, and it was so small! It only went up to 4 feet deep!

The next day, we went to go eat at the Hard Rock Cafe, me and my brother hoping to catch a glance at Dir en Grey eating tere, but then again, who could refuse all the gambling and the allowance to smoke in a nice big air conditioned hotel to a little restaraunt that only shows music videos of American or British rock bands? So, the only Japanese people we saw were people all piling into the cafe to see Dir en Grey that day. Oh well.

We went to Gameworks later that afternoon, and guess who I saw? None other than my old classmate and friend, Will! He was there on vacation as well with his family. It was cool seeing im tere, I missed bickering with him. Teehee. ^^

That night, we took a taxi down to the Venetian, about 2-3 miles away from our hotel, and remember that distance for the rest of this post. We went to the Venetian to go see the Blue Man Group, and it was awesome! One of them kept walking through the crowd via the chairs the audience was sitting in, and he was right in front of me at one time! Standing on the chairs in the row in front of me! It was really cool. we sat in the Orcestra pit though, not the Poncho. Though my dad said that if we did, my mom would not let him see the end of it. Haha. Well, when the show was over, we went to the store, bought a disposible camera (We didn't bring our digital one along) and my brother and I got to take pictures with one of the Blue Man Group (erm, one of the guys from them) and the guys who were playing the drums and guitars. They were cool guys. Then, when we had to elave, there were mile long lines just to get a taxi! At each hotel! And it was past 12 in the morning! So, what else to do?

We walked. All th way back to our hotel. And made it there past 1 AM.

And I collapsed onto the couch. THEN my dad wanted me to get up so I went into the bedroom and collapsed again, only on my bed.

And I have ridded myself of the Walking Pneumonia! Hell yes!!!! XD

Well, that was all for my weekend. Hope you all had a great weekend as well!
