Puerto Vallarta doesn't have the flu






It was my parent's 20th anniversary recently and they decided to celebrate by going on a trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Surprisingly they invited me along for a week! I had the best time ever and totally want to live there. It's warm, there's beaches, i can speak the language, and it's cheap.

The zip-line was super fun and a total adrenaline rush for me. It was hosted at the Predator film set. It's definitely worth the cost for such a great experience. Later Rachael and I did parasailing from the beach. That was scarier to me since there was no safety instruction and you're just floating more than 100ft above the water. All I could think was if I fall I will break alot of bones and was trying to figure out the best way to land. It was cool but probably wouldn't do it again, just because it was expensive and I didn't get any instruction.

The food is also amazing there. Everything was made fresh and tasted amazing. I got a couple margaritas over the week, which were pretty strong but typical of what I get in the US. Coronas tasted the same to me as well (heard they tasted different there).

I can't wait to go back! I'm hoping to go before the end of the year and get a group together. I love being out in the sun and having fun. Love the tan I got too, hope it lasts!

Pepper & Pennywise






On Monday me, Keegan, and Novak went to the Pepper & Pennywise concert. It was aaaamazing. We got there mid-Pennywise so the energy was crazy. We decided to make our way to the center of the mosh pit take part in getting bruised up. It was so hot being squashed in like sardines, could barely breath. After they were done we decided it was time for a break.

We wanted to get back to where the action was before Pepper started. On our way back to the center we came upon this cat fight which we all suddenly became involved in when a guy punched a girl in the face. I was like hellllll naw and jumped in there and was pulling people off each other. Novak stopped the guy from further hitting the chick. Then the chick ends up swinging her arm past my head and apparently had her arm around my neck, when Keegan was like no way bitch! He pushed the chick off me and almost got punched by her. My adrenaline was pumping so much that I almost punched the chick but decided to just push her instead since we were supposed to be stopping the fight not starting or continuing one.

So the fight finally broke up which allowed us to get up close since people were all glad that we stopped it. Then suddenly while we were waiting for Pepper to get on we see this guy with a HUGE pimple growth thing on his back. Mind you he's wearing a tank top and this thing is right at my face level. I was like F this I'm out of here I'm not going to get my face slammed into that. After taking a pic of it and almost throwing up, we make our way to the other side. Finally, Pepper came on and they were HOT!

After a while we couldnt breath, stand, or enjoy the show so we decided to head to the back. Keegan had taken an elbow to the temple and figured he'd had a enough. My whole body felt like it had been tackled by several football players but I stuck it out and enjoyed Pepper. The best part was they didn't have shirts on so you could see their super muscles glistening! YAY! Haha thank you god for making such wonderful men. They seemed so dirty and funny, definitely guys I'd hang with. I can't wait til they come again, I will def be there.

James Bond Cocktail Party






We had our first house warming party on Easter. The theme was James Bond Cocktail Party, so everyone had to dress up. The turnout was amazing! There had to be about 30 or more people throughout the night. Dancing, Guitar hero, beer pong, survivor, and having tons of fun. there was so much drama it was great. Luckily, I wasn't involved in any of it so I got to be an entertained bystander.

Stars Wars Monopoly & ComiCon








Saturday a couple of the paintball guys came over for Star Wars monopoly. We caught some video and picture footage of the wreckage. I think I was the only one drunk by the end of the game. Unfortunately the game couldn't go on for long since the boys had practice the next day. But we still had a great time.

On Sunday I went to the ComiCon in Seattle with Casey. It was awesome, totally worth $15. There were sooo many comic books to choose from I didn't know where to begin. We got some great deals though. They were selling 4 for $1 so I ended up leaving with more than 10 comic books. We also listened to panels of the Battle Star Galatica actors, Marvel Comics writers, and webcomic business strategies. Learned so much about that whole comic world. Got painted up like a zombie and took pics at one of the booths. (Pics of Casey and I as zombies will be posted later). The art work that I saw was amazing, made me really appreciate the hard work these people put into making the comics.
