Hawaii is soooo cool. The Saphirre blue Ocean, great volcano fields, exotic plants and animals, and friendly people. I want to go back.

I live in two places, more if you count extended family, but I won't get into that. Near college gas is over 3 dollars a gallon, and it's practically #$&^*%$&$% flooded because of the %$#@^%#$@ rain that got dumped over there. At home, it's nice, about 68-73 average temperature, we're going to get a lot of mosquitos though. Gas is still under 3 dollars out here though :D

We used to get alot of mosqiutoes when we first moved here, but after the drought there really haven't been any. Lucky us I suppose, I always hated them.

life is boring. I dunno what gas costs becuase I almost never drive. It's still over $3/gal. Public transportation still costs the same. Being Unemployed was cool at first. Now it sucks. So it's time to seriously look for a job instead of just applying to jobs i know ill never get just to keep the check coming.

Man I miss $2.75 gas. Around here it's $2.83 to $3 depending on what part of town your in. As far as school goes it only gets worse. until you have your Masters or you become a doctor.

Right now, here in Wichita, it's only about $2.55. For some reason, we've dropped and other parts of the country have stayed up. Years ago we used to have really cheap gas, but the past 2-3, when I've gone to Colorado, even the mountains gas prices (which ALWAYS used to be high) were practically the same. But the past few weeks we've managed to drop a few cents each couple of days until we're down to around $2.54-2.59.

Yeah, suddenly gas dropped to about $2.77/$2.75 and has stayed that way for about 2 weeks. Kind of waiting for it to shoot up to over $3.00 in one day though :P

Yeah same here it is actually back to $2.75. WOOT! It's more than likely gonna spike again in a week or so when the mass summer vaction madness hits the nation. Our local record was $3.10 for regular, so I guess it will at least hit $3.25.

Things are okay I suppose. Since I'm in Michigan, the weather's always crazy and changing from really hot, to really cold. Hmm, the Feast of St. Clair festival is happening in Pine Grove Park right now. It's a kind of French and Indian War renaissance festival. It's fun to go to and see everyone in costume. Anyway, that's only a couple of minutes from the Blue Water Bridge.

School's boring. The seniors graduated Friday, so I'm without a lot of my friends now. The Anime North convention is going on in Toronto, which I really wanted to go to. It's only a couple of hours away from me, I wanted to go and see Quinton Flynn and Jeff Nimoy again, so I'm upset that I couldn't make it. But other than that, things have been pretty slow for me.

Lets see... life in Florida? Well... Gas is 2.63-2.68 a gallon the weather is HOT and nasty with NO rain (we've been so dry... we really need it, the pollen is taking over... still.). I finished my semeseter last month-ish so my finals are long gone, and I've already signed up for fall semester.

I've been working a lot lately, but I'll chalk that up to it being Memorial Day Weekend and go back to work... x.X

I don't really pay attention to gas prices all that much since I won't have my license until the end of July (yep I'm a young'n) but life's been pretty good lately. I've been getting real close with this girl that I like and my lacrosse team just qualified for states. :)

Life is okay where I live, which is in Redding, California (up north). The weather usually gets very hot around this time, but it's actually been kinda nice the last couple of weeks. Finals are over, but I have summer school in a couple weeks. Next year I'll get my associate's degree in culinary arts. I live in a city, which has just about all the typical stores you can find. There isn't a whole lot to do as far as a night life goes, but I'm not the clubbing sort, so that's okay. I wish there was more of a gaming community, though, as I know there are a lot of gamers here but they're kinda scattered around...or all playing Magic.

Heh... Wichita Kansas still sucks, I'm still stuck here. Just glad I have a wonderful job babysitting adults in a "climate" controlled facility called the County Jail. Woohoo! I love my job!

I'm out of college, waiting anxiously for the Fall semester. I get into the real meat and potatoes of Object-oriented programming. That excites me; possibly more than it should any human.

One of my best friends also had a wake up call and realized working in a factory his entire life wasn't the way to go. So he enrolled to my University too. :lol:

Gas prices don't bother me as much as they do everyone else; I fill up at least once a week while smiling because the USA still pay less at the pump for petroleum products than many other countries.


The first week of July I'm headed up to Canaan Valley, WV.

Image

I've gone there every year for the past 17 years; very nice place indeed. Mountain biking, walking down the grassy ski slopes and getting some awesome views in the process. There's also a wildlife refuge and two state parks; both within 10 minutes of our place.


More than likely the younger family members and I will roadtrip up to Deep Creek, MD for a day of Jet Skis and the like.
