HUGE Updates, and... Winter Break!

First of all, yes it's been a long time. There are plenty of things to write about that I could be writing about that has happened in the past... what... 1 month that I've sadly ignored my blog, including fencing updates, school rants, grammar rants, rants on my newest hero/idol, who happens to be almost 200 years dead (VIVE L'EMPEREUR)...the possible topics are endless. Hopefully I'll have some time to write about all those promising  subjects at a later time. But for now, I'll stick to current events and gradually catch up, one topic at a time.

So, first thing's first. Happy (belated) Christmas, Chanukah, Kwanzaa, whatever seasonal holiday you celebrate. I hope everyone (or what little amount of people still bother to read this) is enjoying their nice winter break... And for those of you who are all freezing your butts off up in the Tri-State area, I'll be enjoying all the nice an sunny weather down here in FLORIDA!

That's right... I'm in Miami, b-insert censor here-tch. (no cookie for very obvious reference) :)

Actually I'll be traveling all around Florida to tour a few nice places, and it started this morning after waking up from a (not very) long 3-hour plane ride. Some areas of interest include: Everglade National Park (airboat tours), Miami Beach, Key West, Key Largos (which will include snorkeling and other water-related activities), and possibly even a visit to the legendary Ernest Hemmingway's house.

After finally finding a way to "borrow" internet connection from the hotel I am currently in (I mean seriously, charging 10 bucks for 1 hour of internet time?! Absurd.), I hope I can maintain this nightly internet connection for this period of 5 or so days so I can keep a journal of my adventures around Florida. Maybe I'll be able to post a few pictures later on, just to make you people who are standing in the freezing snow jealous.

...oh wait, that would be mean. :P

Winter Break

See, I warned you not to expect frequent posts... Seeing how this is the first post after the first post (does that even make sense? Of course it does) after a while, it seems as if I have a bunch of things to catch up on, yes?

...Nope. Too lazy. You're probably thinking, "What? 12 days of winter break and she doesn't have time to type a blog entry?"

No, as I said before, I really don't feel like typing what's happened in the past month. This is a random blog, have you forgotten? I can write about whatever I please, and in this case, it is not about what has happened since the last time I've posted. Perhaps I should talk about how my family stayed at the lamest resort you could possibly imagine for 2 nights, at a ridiculously low price (probably the reason all the frugal asian parents flocked there, seeing a "good deal..."). Or perhaps I should talk about how wonderful my Christmas presents were, because I love receiving socks and pencils as presents. My parents are oh-so-thoughtful; I always need more socks so I can rearrange my sock drawer... So all in all, my presents were even bettar than Chuck Norris. (-gasp- Yeah, I went there...)

But onto some other winter break-related stuff. To my dismay, there hasn't been any decent snowfall lately (guess sledding is off my activities list), but certainly a lot of dense fog (zomg fog is a colloid) which is a nightmare to drive through, according to my mom. And uh, there's nothing much else to talk about so far, is there. I've gotten about 1/100 through my projects which will continue to be procrastinated (yes, even after I've realized that I am procrastinating... -.-), I seem to be getting an average of 1 extra hour of sleep because of the break, and my boredom level has risen to about OVER 9000!... Uh, anyway...

Well, that just about wraps it up (pun completely intended). Maybe I'll find something to rant about later.
