Went to Europe, saw a few of my favorite bands perform, and bought a new car. It was a great summer.

I didn’t have one because I had summer classes. I’m not complaining, I’ve learned a lot, met some really cool profs, watched some movies and attended a RSC performance. If I could do it again, I would.

Most of my vacation is me being a nerd, and of course, watching movies and eating cold ravioli.

But some vacations are a little more er, classy. This Summer, I went, twice, on trips down to Montréal with friends. We rented a hotel room, went shopping, although not too much, visited a buncha place, saw the science museum and checked out their Indiana Jones exhibit, ate at a buncha places, and drank like pirates. We also went to Québec City for one weekend, and it was boring, but gorgeous. XD

Campfires, drinking, sex, sailing, art galleries, sleeping under the stars, concerts, drunken euchre, hanging out with tinyfaery, and kayaking.

Went to Hilton Head Island twice. I’m fortunate that my best friend owns a condo there and it was pretty much all paid for except food. I got to go up in a hot air balloon and ride in and actually fly a cessna courtesy of another friend.

Took a vacation to England and France, a brief trip to Florida, saw a few live performances of some pretty cool bands, watched a lot of movies, played a lot of video games, hung out with some good people, and made a lot of reckless decisions. It was, in all honesty, probably one of the best summers I’ve had yet.
@chyna Hilton Head Island is the bomb.

@Joker94 How was France? And what’s England like?

@Symbeline I was only in Paris for about two days or so, but it was absolutely beautiful. Two days wasn’t really enough to encapsulate it all, I think, but we managed to cover a lot. I’ve already decided that I have to go back for a longer period of time some day, haha. As for England, it was equally as awesome. I got to see all the Beatles’ homes in Liverpool, which just about made me die, and saw a bunch of famous sights in London. It was crazy-mega-super cool, dude..

Berserker's avatar

Ha, sweet. I’d love to visit London some day. If you ever go back to Paris, make sure to check out the Père Lachaise cemetery. It’s some epic business.

Joker94's avatar

@Symbeline Dude, definitely. That already sounds freakin’ awesome.

Berserker's avatar

@Joker94 They give you a map before you go in there.

Stupid link ain’t workin lol

chyna's avatar

@Symbeline I absolutely love cemeteries.

Berserker's avatar

@chyna Me too. Even normal every day graveyards are awesome to me. :)

Joker94's avatar

@Symbeline I absolutely have to see this. Also, there’s supposed to be a pretty slick torture museum in London, which I didn’t get to check out.. :(

chyna's avatar

@Symbeline I like the really old ones the most.

Berserker's avatar

@Joker94 Dude I’d totally check that shit out man. I always wanted to go to a torture museum.

@chyna Those are definitely special. I’ve only seen two really old graveyards in my life, with headstones you simply will not see today. But they were epic as hell.

chyna's avatar

@Symbeline I really hate to make you jealous, but I live across the street from a cemetary. So cool!

Berserker's avatar

@chyna Damn you. You hear me? I’m damning you.

Nah I wouldn’t do that lol. That’s awesome. It’s actually one of my fantasies to live right by a graveyard. Lucky you. :)
