Even people in Michigan know Iowa sucks...
How is everyone? Good I hope! This weekend was awesome! Saturday, we (my cousins, aunt, uncle, and myself) went to the local carnival called The Livonia Spree. It was sooooo much fun! There were so many awesome rides there! My two favorites were the Enterprise and Fireball...cuz you went upside down, and that is always fun. I thought about how awesome it would have been if all of my favorite Jrockers were there and we all just hung out and went on rides an such...oh, that sounds like so much fun! SQUEE!!!! >< They had a ride where you pretty much get hoisted up 150 feet in the air then make a sheer drop that I went on, too. When my uncle and my younger cousin Dylan went on it, there was a guy that ended up having to sit on their row (only 3 people could sit on each of the 4 sides). He had this little wrapped candy in his hand and when they fell, the candy hovered for a bit. If only I would have been able to go when that happened!

Sunday I went to the mall. I spent about an hour running around Hot Topic like a mad woman. I ended up buying Dir en grey's latest album, "Withering to " and a Dir en grey t-shirt. They had two, one with a psycho-skull thing and another one with just their legs and Dir en grey on the front and back. The guy who rung all my stuff up started talking to me about Diru. I'm guessing he was already a fan or something, cuz he said he liked some of their older music a little better. Then some of his co-workers and us got in a discussion about the Family Values Tour and Diru being on it. At one point I had to explain I was only in Michigan for a short time and lived in Iowa. One of the s goes, "Well, arn't they going to be in Iowa?" I shook my head and she asked why, and the guy goes, "Because it's Iowa!" I full out agreed with him. I like that place though...I think I'll buy the other t-shirt next time I go. I also stopped at a small Borders and got a bookmark. You know how they have those small shop-like things they set up in the middle of the floor at the mall and they sell random stuff like glass figurines and what-not? They had an oriental home decor shop set up and they had these really cool figurines of horses and dragons. I decided to buy a small horse one that was painted gold. The people running the stand were very kind too!

Well, Sunday night we went to a fire works display they had to mark the ending of the Spree. It was really odd because you would see the fire-works, but 10 seconds later you would hear the bangs...and feel them, too...the reverberations actually made a car alarm go off! Well...I have to go now...I'll try and get on tomorrow night and comment. Sorry...no piccie again...gomen. TT.TT
