Car Troubles

current mood: drained

I had a bit of an adventure tonight. Went to a drive-in movie with my friend, her boyfriend, and my brother. Me and my brother were in one car, my friend and her boyfriend in another. We watched Hellboy II and Wall-E back-to-back, starting at 8:55pm. I don't know if all drive-in movies work this way, but for this place, you listen to the audio by tuning into a specified radio station. Which, of course, means leaving your car on. See where I'm going here?

Anyway, the second movie finishes up, it's about 1:00am and I try to start my car back up to leave. "Try" being the operative word here. My battery is apparently dead. I call my Dad who says he'll head down with a jumper cable. Luckily, my friend has not left, yet, so me and my brother don't have to wait in an empty, dark parking lot waiting for my Dad. My Dad gets there, jumps my car and I finally get home at 2:00am. .___.

Tomorrow I'll be getting a new battery. I'm usually my brother's ride to football practice on Monday's, so he's going to have to skip it tomorrow. He's so happy disappointed. :P

Canada Post 1: Coumbia Icefield

current mood: accomplished

So, I'll start off my picture posts with an entry about the Columbia Ice Field. We stopped here on the way to Jasper from Lake Loise. It's about an hour and thirty minutes away from either place. You take a special vehicle to the icefield and they let you walk around for about 20 minutes. There are little streams cutting through the ice that you can drink from. The water is, of course, VERY COLD. I had to use my hand to drink from it, after which my hand spent the rest of its time in my pocket. Too. Cold. D:

Anyway, on to the pictures! )

Well, I actually got in last night, but I was kind of worn out. Canada was gorgeous and I had a lot of fun along the way, but there was way too much traveling involved. D: Getting home was the worst part. We took a bus, then a ferry, then a bus again and then a plane, then BART and, finally, a car. Got back at 8:30pm after starting the trip home at 8:00am. x___x

I'll be making some picture posts of the trip later, since I still have to sort through the pictures, figure out where they were taken, delete blurry ones, etc.

CANADA *moose*

So, I'm going on vacation to Canada tomorrow. I'm really not sure what to expect since my parents handled all the details, but it should be fun. :D We're going to go on this train tour of Canada, stopping at different cities to site-see and spend the night.

I will have limited internet access(;~;), which is extremely annoying because 1)I'm going to miss so many interesting entries, I just know it and 2) my registration date for DVC is during the trip. This means I'm going to have to bring all my school information with me and figure out my schedule there. Hopefully, I'll be around a computer at the time and not on a train. Anyway, I'm getting home on July 8th, so I'll see you all then! 8]

I'm not going to Fanime anymore. My parents apparently did not realize that it would be my friend who would drive us back and forth between the convention and her cabin. They said that she's too new of a driver and that I can't go...

I'm actually not that angry. =/ Maybe because now the money I had for Fanime can go towards a Lusis? Who knows. *shrug* Oh, well. Three day weekend! :DD
