It's a Derigiberbel!
..Ignore the title.
Well, this weekend was rather interesting. My cousin and his friend came out from Virginia Beach to visit us on spring break.. And, because neither of them remember California from the last time they were here (About nine years ago, I think), so we decided to show them around Los Angeles.
Technically, we were planning to take them to Universal Studios, but we woke up too late to really get our money's worth out of a theme park ticket. We then decided to go to Universal CityWalk, Universal Studio's neighboring outdoor specialty store mall. Most of the shops there don't appeal to me, really. They do have a sushi restaurant, though I haven't been in it, an Electronics Boutique is coming soon (Dude, it's going to be so huge), and they had an arcade.. But most of the games were sort of outdated. They only had DDR 3rd Mix, and MTV's Drum Simulator (It was broken) as far as Bemani went, though. I really didn't even play anything.
Anyway, I finally got some Dippin' Dots for the first time in months. For those of you who don't know, Dippin' Dots is this freeze dried ice cream.. In small dot form. o.O They're sort of hard to come by, but it's delicious stuff. For more information, click here!
Then, the true reason for existence came to clear view- It came in the form of a huge comic book store owned by Dark Horse Comics. Things From Another World, it's called. Honestly, they didn't have that many comics. Their wall of manga was very impressive, yes, but the cool part of the store is all of the T-shirts and Japanese imports. In fact, I bought the perfect shirt (For only $19.95!) for me there.
Yes, I plan on wearing it to Anime Expo. It's the only place in the world where I won't be ridiculed for wearing such a thing.
And then we drove around in Hollywood. I made a little game out of it, actually- It was sort of like "GTA Bingo".
I counted all of the interesting things I saw:
-4 Street Walkers
-3 Strip Clubs
-3 Crazy People with Shopping Carts
-5 Street Performers
-3 Drag Queens
-2 Museums of the Strange (Ripley's and Guinness)
- XXX Bowling
- The Erotic Museum
:D It was fun watching these things.
I made my first Wallpaper yesterday.. It's an Eva one (Sorry, Azure), but I think it turned out well for a first attempt.
Not to mention I did it all in PhotoShop. *thumbs up!* It's available here.
And, I've rewritten this mO post three times for various reasons, so I'm going to wrap this up. Good night, everyone, and may the helium-inflated gerbils be with you.
