Okay, so today on Facebook a girl (not naming) asked me why guys frown when they ask a girl out and the girl says "I'll think about it" This sort of struck me for some reason because just a few weeks ago, I asked someone out and she said "I'll think about it". She said no about 1 week later. Then I asked another girl today (not naming) and she said "I'll think about it". I just said "ok" instead of pushing my luck any farther like I did last time. I'll be lucky if I even get a response later. But back on topic, why does a guy frown when you say "I'll think about it". Well, well, well, my friend... why don't you think about that? Obviously the guy either thinks it's going to be a "no" or he thinks you're un-sure about him, which is probably what you are. But to a guy, that's like saying he's not as special as he ought to be. I don't care whether you wanted to go back to your friends and see if you should date that guy, or whether you have to ask your parents and see if it's okay with them. If you say "I'll think about it", you're giving the guy some really, really low expectations on you. Possibly leading him to not wanting to hang around you anymore or something similar. It can also really depress that guy, unless he had like a back-up girl just in case you said no or something. If a guy asks you out, it's a simple answer. Yes or no. It shouldn't matter what your parents think, what your friends think, or what anybody thinks. If you like that guy then you should end up saying one of those two words whether you're unsure or not.
For the guys, it's not a complete no. If she says "I'll think about it" then just say "ok" and maybe try hanging out with her some more and see if she's any different. Or just wait as long as you can for her to make up her mind. I asked a girl out at music camp (she broke up with me on the last day) and she said "I'll think about it". I thought that was an absolute "no". But the next day she said "The answer to your question is yes". This gave me the mistake of thinking...someone else...was interested and she would say yes but she ended up saying no. Then that leaves this girl currently with me confused whether she's going to say yes, no, or not even reply to that question.
My point here, it's a really bad idea for a girl to say "I'll think about it".

Against Bullying
You know what ticks me off? Bullies. Yeah, yeah I'm sure everyone's heard this story sooo many times. And most of you will probably say "Me too!" Well, unless you're an adult or you are the bullied, I won't refer to you. But the teens in.. public schools.. -evil dramatic music-, some of my friend's parents say they come home from school crying because they've been bullied. Even if you don't think you're a bully, when was the last time you saw someone crying in a corner or standing all alone with no friends to hang with and you decided to comfort/help that person? So what if it's the major school nerd or it takes forever for them to finish one sentence. Sometimes those guys are your best friends. For some reason, everyone thinks I hang with popular people and cool guys. Well, you're wrong. Partly because I'm homeschooled I guess.. but I've been places and I'm not going to brag or anything because I'm just like ya'll, I'll see someone standing over in a corner all by themselves because that guy is really weird and annoying and I'll just try my best to avoid that person. But I will sometimes go over to someone feeling depressed. On Facebook, my friends come to me for quote on quote "advice" on their relationships and problems. This is funny because, as you all should know, I'm not on the top line of relationships and I've never even experienced "school drama". So I can't even use the advice I give people but they'll usually come back to me with two different answers.. "I didn't take your advice" or "It worked! :D". They say they come to me because I'm the only person who will listen to their problems and try to help. (Even tho they don't care about mine. haha) As I said before, some of the best friends you can ever have are the lowest-rated kids in your class. Because they're the bullied and they know what it's like to have a real friend and they know what it's like to be nice and kind to others. One person, who I will not name or even give a hint about, I've heard has been bullied alot at school. I've taken the time to get to know him and the only thing wrong with him is that he has a speech problem. But in all respect, he's actually a smart guy and if people would give him a chance he's pretty fun to be around. And I'm going to refer this to those teens... Have you ever had anyone come up to you and say "You're my only friend"? I swear to you.. that will be the greatest feeling you ever get in the month of that year.
I posted this as I am against bullying, and one of those quote on quote, "awesome guys". I hang out with the most popular people, and I hang out with the most... awesome.. people (:

First Band Practice
Okay, before I get into the main topic of this post.. I want to first say that I'm no longer posting.. ANY more love posts. Y'know, all of my readers like them, but they certainly haven't helped me out in the past month or so. Considering Ginger read the "best cruise ever" post. And what's new to my love-ship? Abigail said "I don't want to be in a relationship right now". Abigail, I would've much preffered you to come up to me in person and say "No." instead of saying "I'll think about it" then, "Not yet" then that. No need to get hopes up, yah know? I also would've taken it better, because I can understand an answer "No" better than "I don't want to be in a relationship". Because that doesn't tell me that you didnt like me either because I'm not your type, I was too fast, nobody likes me or whatever. So... just to give you that pointer next time. In fact, I'm not even going to try getting into this relationship stuff anymore. It just sucks. I'll just wait for a girl to ask ME out instead.. even tho it's not supposed to work that way o-o
ANYways.. that was my last love post so soak it in guys! d: We started touring the snow queen in schools recently. It's pretty interesting, but that's not entertaining to read about. Let's talk about our band, "Adrenaline Rush". We had our first band practice today. Let's summarize the members I had in my band..
Gabe - Drummer
Mary Kate - Singer
Gloria - Singer
Cheryl - Guitar/Singer
Christopher - Guitar
Blane - Bass
Milner - Keys
Here's who showed up today..
Gabe - Drummer
Mary Kate - Singer
Gloria - Singer
Cheryl - Guitar/Singer
Milner - Keys
Soo.. I'm still in need of a bass, and a tech guy. BUT, we sounded SOOOO much better than we all expected. We started out with "Blessed be your Name". We dominated that one the first time we played it. It was easy, but we sounded so good. I'm really proud of my current band at the moment.. These are all the guys I need so far! We also tryed "How he Loves Us", we couldn't quite get the beat to it at first on the drums and guitar, but we sort of got it a little later. I would've started with some Christmas rock, but I decided to start with contemporary christian because it's plain and simple. But Adrenaline Rush is a win! Find us on Facebook, our profile picture looks like this--

Don't Come 2 Me!
OKAY. Can I first start off by saying to a couple of blog readers and FB friends.. I can help ya'll with ANY problems through chat.. except relationship/asking out/love problems!! I swear, I am not an expert on this topic. Yet ya'll come to me ALL. THE. TIME. about these love advice things. I can try my best to help ya'll out but I have enough troubles trying to talk to girls at the moment. All of my relationships I've done, I've asked out the Facebook. I've dated through Facebook. I've only talked to all of them through Facebook. I'm not a love expert! Guys think I'm pretty awesome. No really, I've had about 2 guys come up to me and just say "You're pretty awesome" hahaha. Tho it might seem to differ for the girls? I'm pretty sure my current crush doesn't even like me back at the moment. (Or at least anymore, at this rate) You want some advice, guys? Don't rush asking a girl out until you get to know her a little more. If you, for example, buy her a special necklace from Florida and haven't even talked to her except for about 2 days.. in 2 weeks, only at church, lets say? Then thats being too fast right there. Then after that, you ask her out. Then say you didn't send that message and you blame it on a friend who you claim to "hack" your Facebook. Then you say your sister wants to know the answer. This is exactly.. EXACTLY what I did in one week..
She'll probably think you're a creep. She'll say "No". Or, she'll say "Maby, I have to get to know you a little more". Then the only thing that leads you to is awkward eye contacts and walking up and saying "Hey" with nothing else that can come out of your mouth. I'm really going to be honest and say this is all from my experience I've had in this past two weeks. I think I rushed things too fast.
My point, whether you're at a public school, church or whatever.. WAIT before you GO.

Adrenaline Rush
Well! I decided to start a band this week. We'll be starting off playing contemporary christian music like.. Brandon Heath, Jars of Clay or whatever. We're doing those kinds of music first because it's the easiest and we'll need to start practicing the easy stuff first before we get more advanced into like oldies, country or whatever. The name of the band is Adrenaline Rush. Our original name was The Fiber Dwogs, but the whole band didn't agree with it. Then, we tryed "The Electric Croxx" which the "Croxx" was supposed to be a cool way of spelling "Cross" but everyone thought we meant the shoes.. so our final one is called Adrenaline Rush.
Let's introduce the band players.. I'm the manager of the band and I'll be playing the keys. My sister, Gloria, is a singer.
-Me (Keys) and Gloria (Singer)
Our drummer, is Gabe Barnette. He's also my assistant manager for the band.
-Gabe Barnette, Drummer
We have two guitarists. One is Cheryl Blaxton, which is my sister's best friend. The other is Christopher Murphy, who is my cousin. Cheryl's also our singer. I'm actually not sure if Christopher is officially in the band yet, but he said if we ever did a band he wanted to be in it.
-Cheryl and Christopher, Guitarists
We're not completely sure if we've found a bass yet, but I have a friend that might be bass in our band. His name is Blane. He goes to my church, and he's a nice/fun guy!
-Blane, Bass
We have one more singer, Mary Kate Conley. She lives behind us, so she's our neighbor. She's fun to hang out with.
--Mary Kate Conley, Singer
Well, at least we have enough people to get started with! We might even have more later on.. I still have two spots open.. The Tech Guy, and a Percussionist. We need a percussionist who's pretty humourus, that can play a cow bell funny during a song! (people from The Cleft only get that insider)

Top 10 Week: Food
Well, this is my 30th post. I've decided every 10 posts I do for my blog, I'll do some sort of top 10 of my favorite things. I'll start off with food. Food is amazing! And whoever hates food is my enemy -.- Be warned tho, I dont like healthy food >.>
#10 on my list would be Taco Bell's soft tacos. They're amazing! And I don't care what you say, they're delicious!! Taco Bell's food is not the yucky regular mexican (Dont get me wrong, I love mexican (; ) It's AMERICAN mexican! :D
MMmmmm.. Cookies and Cream Ice Cream. You probably wouldn't expect this on a top 10 food list. But out of my favorite ice cream, this would have to be #1.
Mexican nachos... are AMAZING! Yes, I know I'm addicted to the worst junk food on the planet. But c'mon, who doesn't like nachos?
Subway's meatball sub.. I haven't seen many people get this. But I don't like anything else at Subway except this.
Sbarro's double crust stuffed pizzas are just.... food for the soul! I could eat a whole one... that is if I new I wouldn't get fat.
Sesame Chicken, I'll usually get with some lo mein.. it's amaaazing
MUAHAHAHHA!! Chili cheese stuff!!! XD I love em all! Even when Taco Bell did their chili cheese quesidillas!
I couldn't squeeze all my favorite pastas.. Macoroni, Lo Mein, Spaghetti, Alfredo... sooo this'll just have to do.
Now let me say this first.. I don't like ANY other kind of chicken quesidillas EXCEPT the ones from Taco Bell! It's that delicious sauce they put in that makes it amazing.
#1 would, by all means, HAVE to be cheesecake. MY all time favorite food, dessert, snack... it's just.. food from heaven.

Mall Buddies
Well, yesterday Colin, Jacob, Gloria and I went to the Westgate Mall in Spartanburg. It was pretty fun. We got lots of pictures in random stores with hats and stuff. Although we did pass several adults that said "These kids should be in school!" When we would shout back "We're homeschooled!" or "You should be at work!" Some people just need to keep their mouths shut. Mainly talking to those adults. They see a group of teens and judge us before they get to know us. We're not like most groups of teens. We're polite, smart and... well.... homeschooled?
I'd post some pictures but that'll have to be later because Gloria hasn't posted them on Facebook yet. Anyways, after that we dropped Gloria off at the house and stayed the night at Colin & Jacob's. We watched Family Guy and played Mario Sports (worst mario game ever). It wasn't until I had to leave that I remembered that I had brought the Gamecube Super Mario Bros with me... oh well. In the morning Colin and I rode down over grown trails on the golf cart. Then tonight me, Gloria and Mom ate supper at a neighbor's house. Considering we have no neighborhood friends, there's a K, two 4th graders and a 14 year old girl. (yeeeaaa 8) jkjk I'm taken...tho I am having 2nd thoughts) They're really nice. I don't really have much to blog about sooo... --This is Milner!

'07 Louisiana Letters
Okay, for these couple of days I want to share with you some letters I got back in 2007 (When I was 9). We were working at one of the schools, I think it was Leo Seaton? I'm not sure. But I found my shoe box and was reading through my old letters when at the bottom I found all the letters that class sent me. I never replyed to any of them, so I believe I'll reply to them through my blog (even tho ya'll will probably never read this)
"Dear Milner,
Hi, My name is Clifton Escort. You sound like a good kid. It is very interesting that you are homeschooled. I am 9 years old. I like to draw. Do you? When is your birthday? My birthday is Feb. 13. I like to play my Nintendo... Well please send me a letter back.
Your penpal, Clifton Escort.
Well Clifton, sorry I never sent you a reply. But I would have been nine as well (I think). So that would make you 13 now? Well that'd be interesting to see what you look like now, considering I'm 13 too. I appreciate that you think I'm a.. "good" kid:3 I used to draw alot, but I sort of gave that up after a while. My birthday is Feb. 23rd. So you would be a few days older than me. Hope you see this soon! --Milner
Dear Milner,
Hi! My name is Colby Glatter. I am eight years old and in the third grade. I think I draw pretty good. But I don't know what other people think of my drawings. I would like to be pen pals with you because I dont have any and I really want one. I hope you will be my pen pal. I have my own website. If you want to go to it go to colby.xbuild.com
Your pen pal,
Colby Glatter
Colby, sadly your website must not exist anymore. Which is a shame. The picture you drew looked like you draw manga, and it was pretty good. I wish we could've been pen pals but I was 9 and stupid and never replyed to any of the people in your class so don't feel bad.
--Milner
Dear Milner,
My name is Kaitlyn. I'm 8 years old. Ihave a 11 year old broth(er?) named Cody. I am a very nice person if you've got to know me. Some people think I'm weird but I'm not! I am very interesting and fun. I love sports and animals! I sit by one boy named Joe. He's really weird and stupid. What about you? Do you like animals and sports? Do you have a brother or sit by a boy? Are your friends weird? Do you like plays? How many teeth have you lost? What school are you in? Please answer questions and write back!
Once again, Kaitlyn, I'm sorry for never writing back. You (sort of?) sound like a nice person. Thank you for that good description of some dude named Joe. I have a fat, lazy, pathetic chinese pug and 7 stray cats. So yea, I guess I like animals. I live in a gym and play basketball about 1 to 2 hours a day. I have an older sister and I'm afraid I don't sit by a boy. (???) All of my baby teeth :D I am homeschooled.
--Milner
Dear Milner,
Hi! My name is Kenneth. I really hope we can be best friends and I will tell you what I llike to do for fun. I like to play basketball and maby I can teach you a couple of moves one day and I practice so I can do the slam dunk. I like to collect little car hot wheels and make them crash.
Kenneth, I'm sorry we couldn't become best friends. 1 point for basketball fan man!! Yeaa!! And I could've used some lessons on that too.But if I did a slamdunk, my basketball goal would tip over so that wouldn't be the best trick for me to learn. I collected those tiny hot wheel cars too when I was 9 and 10. In fact, I could go to our storage building and find a box of about 95 little hot wheel cars right now that I used to play with (: (and a collection of dinosaurs... :D )

Dear, Milner
Hi! My name is Cayce Keton and I have a couple of questions to ask. First, do you like being homeschooled? Second, do you have any friends? And finally, do you know alot? We have Mardi Gras and many other celebrations. I have blonde hair brown eyes. I go to a school. I am 8. I have a good learning. I have a really nice teacher.
Cayce, I enjoy being homeschooled. Homeschooled friends are usually a bit more pleasant to be around than most public school friends. (I'm referring to the stupid ignorant public school kids who live in Spartanburg County btw) I know enough. Nice to know I'm talking to a blonde... picture please?? 8) (jk)

Dear Milner,

I want to know where you live in what city. What is your favorite pet? Is it puppies, rabbits, cats, snakes? What do you want to be when you grow up?
Your pen pal,
Karina
Karina, my birthday is Feb. 23rd. Yea, you come to love South Carolina after a while, those interesting southern accents... I don't like WRITING, but I'll type on the computer. Or blog, of course. My favorite sports would be basketball and bowling. I live in Inman, South Carolina. I'm going to have to say that no pet can get better than an old fat lazy chinese pug named Boogie. I believe I'm going to stay in the acting business.

Dear Milner,
Hi, my name is Wesley Giroir. Do you like home school? Do you celebrate holidays? You should celebrate, it's alot of fun. They give you roses, stickers and lots of stuff. Do you celebrate Christmas? You get money, candy, toys and a lot of other stuff. Can you please write me back?
Your pen pal,
Wesley
Wesley, yes, I enjoy being homeschooled. Yes we celebrate holidays and Christmas. What made you think that Louisiana is the only state that celebrates holidays? Sorry I never wrote back.

Teens Trick or Treating!!
Well, I've been home for about a week now. The first day we were home, Colin & Jacob spent the night at our house. It was soo incredibly awesome! Honestly, most people dont live in a big gym with an apartment built into half of it located in the middle of a shopping center. We rode our bikes to Mabry Middle School and just sat there and waited for the kids to walk home like the creepy stalkers we are. It's funny to wave at the passing kids.. "Hey.. Love you.. My place, 3:00"... If you're homeschooled and live near a school you should try it some time. It'll be awkward and weird, yet you'll be bursting out laughing inside your head at the same time... The next day we also went ice skating. Ice skating wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. It's alot like roller skating.. but without breaks, and hard ice, and painful. My friend, Cheryl, had blisters when she was done ice skating. I absolutely love to roller blade, but ice skating is not my top thing. The day after that, I took my cousin to Scarowinds.

--Me and Lexi at SCarowinds, 2011
It was pretty awesome itself. They had monsters and stuff jumping out at you and scaring the crap out of you. I was supposed to meet Ginger there, but she was staying for some haunted house thing she made.. I already knew that she would be missing out on alot. But I also wouldn't want to put up with the "This is lame, I could be at my own haunted house right now" thing. She said nobody showed up. (shoooocker..) The day after that I was supposed to meet my gf, Kassidy, at Boiling Springs First Baptist. But instead she was going to go trunk or treating at River Hills, and we didn't want to go to that. But I was REALLY tired that day anyways.. so that wouldn't have been the best time to meet Kass after a whole year anyways. THEN the day after THAT (Which would be today, AKA: Halloween) me, my sister, colin and jacob went trick or treating. It was beast. I dressed up as a vampire. Jacob dressed up as a little kid with a pin wheel, beanie cap and suspenders. Colin dressed up as a banana. Their mom dressed up as a baby. Gloria dressed up as a mad hatter. My mom dressed up as Captain Jack Sparrow. Soo.. yeah, pretty fun week. Had every day booked.--this is milner!

Heading back home
Well, I'm currently in Raleigh N.C. This is the 3rd time I've been here this year. The first time was for I.D. Tech Camp this last summer. The 2nd time I was working for a week up here, which I had two friends come and see a show which was pretty beast. This 3rd time I'm not sure what I'm performing for. It's a public event for the people in the city to see. So we haven't performed here before. Should be interesting. Yesterday's show was pretty good. We had the best audience there so far. Lots of laughs, the people at that retirement center have seen us for the past 10 years and say that we're their best entertainment.
--Our performance space yesterday
Then we went to Golden Corral. We go there alot. It's a pretty nice buffet.. in most places. Sometimes you'll go to a few and there's flies all over the place. Or if you go to one in S.C. you'll usually notice that over half of the people that go to use the bathroom don't wash their hands when they leave. But other than that, it's fine. Probably just as good as eating Mc Donald's.
--Golden Corral, yesterday.
When I get home today, starting tomorrow I have the whole week booked. Gotta sleep over at my house with Colin & Jacob. Then all three of us go ice skating the next day. Then the day after that I'm going to Carowinds again with my cousin, Lexi. Then the day after that I might be going to a halloween event at Boiling Springs Baptist Church with my gf, Kassidy. Then to top it all off, I'm going trick or treating as Dracula with Colin and Jacob. Colin's dressing up as a banana so it should be a pretty good night.
But tomorrow, sleepover. I'm going to have the lights down in my gym (Yes, I live in a gym with an apartment built into the front half of it in a shopping center accross the street from a fire station behind a library, yea, pretty beast.). Gonna get our amplifier out and pump the music up and have a HUGE tiny dance party with 3 guys. Might stalk the middle schoolers or something.
well, gotta go, --this is milner!

Back from New York (and) Don't mean to be hating!
Okay okay okay, just gotta get this through. I've been reading over my previous posts and just notice that at some points it sounds like I'm really hating on a couple of people. Haha, the major one would be Ginger. Soorrry Ginger. Tho you could probably care less considering you wouldn't know my friends that read this blog anyways. :P Just let me pick this back up here, never meant to be talking bad about some people. Just really didn't ever mention the good about 'em so don't be judging them or anything. Like Ginger, I've barely said anything nice about her from what I've been re-reading. Sooo here goes.. she's actually pretty awesome. Like I said before, she's also really pretty and her current bf is lucky to have her. Really lucky. She's really funny and outgoing and she'd probably be the most popular girl in my town.
Okay. Now that that's been straightened out.. I just left the train from New York City to Virginia. We saw three shows. Memphis, Priscilla and Rock of Ages. Memphis was a very entertaining show, I highly recommend seeing it. Rock of Ages was great too, but when you walk into the theater you will immediately regret taking your kids if you do. It should be rated "R". And let me just end the talk of NY by saying.. NO ONE'S LIFE IS PERFECT UNTIL YOU SEE PRISCILLA! It's the best show on broadway, from what i've seen, right now!! I swear I've never seen so many guys in dresses in my life. Well I don't really have much else to post so.. --this is cap!

Nachos are beast
Well, still in the Washington D.C. area. Tho not in the tourist area anymore, just sort of relaxing until we leave for New York City on the train tomorrow. We'll probably see a movie today. Not sure what movie we'll see tho. Currently at Mc Donalds.. bored, so why not update my blog for the day? :p Yesterday we had mexican. Mexican is not my favorite, but I like it. Especially if I haven't eaten breakfast, or lunch because our two shows were very close together.
--My beast 3-cheese nachos, with chicken, black beans and sower cream
The picture above, that's what I had for supper. Yes. I say supper. Supper sounds sooo much cooler than what belongs in the 1950's.. Dinner. -shiver- I don't feel like sounding like my grandpa. Also I'm from S.C. so you kinda get used to the country accents and bad grammar anyways. But from the picture above, I ate all of that and my mother's taco salad. Yep. Very hungry. That plate looks like heaven, doesn't it?
We had two shows yesterday, but I only got one picture. It was a picture of the 3:00 PM show. The people who came to see the show, most of them have lost their mobility. All with either walkers or in wheel chairs. They still have their minds tho. The thing with the people I hang out with, they think going to retirement centers and performing is.. quote on quote "stupid" because they won't remember it or not understand anything. But they will. We have 95 year olds who come to see our shows because they remember us from previous years. I don't think teens should be as harsh on seniors, considering they'll be their age sometime too. If not, die before they REACH their age.
Well, out of things to blog about.. soo.. --This is Milner!

Washington D.C.
--A business card-sized ad I made for Denny's
After those 3 days were up, we made our way down to Washington D.C. Me, being a big Disney freak was excited to find a few things in the Smithsonian at the Museum of American History...
--Broadway Lion King mask
--Michael Jackson's hat
--Original Wizard of Oz ruby slippars (:
--Old records o.o
The smithsonian has some pretty cool stuff. Including the hat that Abraham Lincoln wore when he was shot. Which, sadly, I did not get a picture of. But we've been up in D.C. for about 3 days now. It's been pretty nice. We went to the Smithsonian once, then been doing Romeo & Juliet shows. But after you've been to Washington D.C., New York City, Orlando and all these other places about 50 times, it gets kind of old. And you also feel like pulling your hair out because of the freaking traffic. On the other hand, we did get a nice hotel in downtown washington. The Residence Inn by Marriott. The room is alot nicer than what we're used to.
--Our room
...and there's something to be said when the public restrooms use towels for you to dry your hands! :)
--BEAST restrooms!
Our performance space was really... narrow. But, I preferred it that way, because usually they'd have us against the wall to the left and then it would be very wide and we wouldn't have much space to play off of. The show was good. I believe we have two shows today.. BLAH :/
Well, other than that, I guess all I can say is that I had a cheesecake with chocolate syrup and strawberry sauce yesterday! :) Tho, I would've preferred it without the chocolate syrup..
--This is Cap! ..then again, I'm just gonna start saying.. --This is Milner!

My awesome cousins! 8D
The first thing I want to post tonight.. I'm tired of reading the crap that some people will say on Facebook chat. I'm not going to point anyone out. (Ginger) But if you wouldn't tell someone something in reality, why say it on Facebook? EVEN if you aren't going to see that person again. I'm not refurring to just one person (for the most part), I'm speaking for a few of my other "friends." (Not really) Luckily for me, I'm really not offended. (Yea kinda)
But all the stupid drama aside. Back from Florida. Went to the fair with my cuz. Alexis, we'll call Lexi, gotta be the best cousin anyone can have! Tho actually not related really, she lives with my uncle and aunt. She's beast. My other cousin, Christopher, my actual cousin, he's pretty beast too. He's a video gamer, and I'm more of an internet/keyboard/party guy. We have differences but over all we get along and have a good time.

Me and Christopher usually hang out at each other's houses sometimes. Dad usually takes me and Lexi to Carowinds on the weekends. I'm currently at a sleep over with my two new buds, Colin & Jacob. They're really beast xD hahaha. Yep, I got beast friends. But there is some people I wish I never met. Y'know, they mostly appear on the cruises. It doesn't matter how well you know them, once you're on a cruise, some of the kids will tend to get mean sometime on the cruise. Some will become real big b#*%$es AFTER the cruise. Like online. (Ginger) Others are just really awesome people the whole time (Umberto, Tyler, Christina, and a few more awesome ppl)

Last day in Florida
Okay, so I'm now at my last day in Florida. It's about 7:00 PM now. Tomorrow we check out, and we do one more show. Then we drive half way back to S.C., then get in on Thursday at about around the afternoon. Yesterday's show was pretty good. We performed at one of my favorite places. Here's how I sum up my favorite performance places: The bigger the stage & theater, the better I like it. The smaller the space & stage, the less I like it. So.. that means tomorrow I'm performing at my least favorite retirement center. Because the stage is tiny, and the performance spice is really small. A narrow room. But I'll talk about that later. Yesterday, we performed in a huge church. With a big stage (half of it was covered with chairs and a piano tho) and the seating area looks like it goes on for miles. But because it's such a huge space, only about half of the space was filled up tho. But I still love it. They also fed is a huge lunch as well.

--Seating area

That was where we did the 1:00 PM show. We also did another show in the evening at the retirement center we've been staying at for the past 9 days. It used to have a stage but it's been walled off and removed for about 2 years now. But the performance space was nice. About 15 people came to see the show. That was okay with me too.
--Gulf Coast Village Perfomance Space
I also had a cheesecake. Now, let me just say this. Nobody's life is perfect until they've had a bite of cheesecake. Cheesecake is desert for the sould, man. Cheesecake is the best creation that's ever existed! And let me just say this, The Cheesecake Factory's "Reece's Peanut Butter Cheesecake", is BEAST!! But I tend to go to books-a-million or Barnes and Nobles alot and get the plain NY cheesecake.
--My cheesecake.
Today, we had a day off. And I did my algebra last night at like, 10:00 PM so I wouldn't have to do it today. (Yes, I made a 100%. Thank you very much. Algebra is easy!!) So, today I got done with HW at about around 12:30 this morning. If I did math today it would have been about 1:45. So we went thrift-store shopping today. I got some new blue sunglasses and another leather jacket. It's the 2nd leather jacket I've bought on this trip, and add my huge fluffy one at home, I now have 3 leather jackets. These sunglasses are a bit nicer than the Pollo Tropical sunglasses. But they feel crooked, but don't look it. They look nicer than my $2.00 "Chicken on the Grill" sunglasses. I got these for 3 bucks.
--My new beast sunglasses. (imma dork ;)
