Shuddup, ok ;P? Making journals is not my top priority! But cool things have happened, so I guess I will make one. Dur da dur.

I couple of weeks ago, I did something fairly cool. I went to Europe. England and France to be specific. It was AMAZING, srsly! Westminster Abbey in London is most likely the most beautiful place I have ever been, it is far more beautiful than even Norte Dame! My french got a bit better while I was there, lol, which was great. In Paris, our hotel was actually just down a hill from the Sacre Coure (SP?), which is the highest hill in Paris, and right behind it was a sqaure where artists would just sit and paint. It was probably the greatest place in the world, and we, of course, bought several paintings. On that same hill was acutually where people like Dali, Monet, Renoure, and all sorts of other artists lived and worked!

Apart from London and Paris, I also saw Versailles, which was extravagent to a discusting extent, Windsor Castle, which was quite beautiful, the roman baths at Bath, and Stonehendge. Stonehendge was incredible, just to think that this actual structure was ancient history by the time of christ, and it is still around today is stunning.

I went to a million art museums. really. a million. And I saw Mona Lisa. It was really lame, actually, just a little portrait behind three panes of bullet proof glass, guarded by two people, and you couldn't get within 20 feet of it. By the time I got to the Louvre, I was entirely sick of classical styled art. Way to many gods and christs and naked freaking women! There was a great Impressionist museum though, with rooms full of famous Van Goghs and Monets and Degas's and Renoires, I think it was called the Orsailles, but I don't remember.

Coming home is my last interesting story. Our plane took off at 11 from London, flew for 8-9 hours, and landed in Charlotte, NC at 2. Do the math, it doesn't quite work.

I want to live in Paris. America sucks. Oh, funny thing, there is a Toy Store in London called Hamley's, probably the coolest 5 floor toy store ever, we had good fun there, but it is older than our country by about 50 years!

Betrayer... In truth, it was I who was betrayed. Still, I am hunted. Still, I am hated. Now, my blind eyes can see what others cannot. That sometimes the hand of fate must be forced! - Illidan Stormrage
