I don’t know why, but my internet has been sluggish lately
Last night, Will and I watched The Chronicles of Riddick. I thought it was a great movie; however, Will thought it was just okay. Then again, I love movies like that. If that’s your type of movie, I recommend you see it. The special effects are the best I’ve seen in a while. (Well, since Lord of the Rings, that is.)
After the movie, Will and I went to a small carnival behind the mall. I didn’t want to go because those rides scare me - I’m afraid that they will fall apart and we will plummet helplessly to the earth
Anyways, after riding a couple of rides to rid myself of my fright, Will got me on the Zipper, which, in my opinion, was the scariest ride at the carnival. Soon afterwards, Will got queezy and refused to ride any other rides which really made me mad since he dragged me there in the first place!! Of course, I teased him the remainder of the night, so I got my revenge
Will’s little brother is staying with us this week. I’m so embarassed because my apartment is a dump and this is the first time for him to see it. I would have cleaned up for him if I’d known he was coming ahead of time. Oh well, I doubt it bothers him
Will and he have been playing Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2003 all night long. I finally dragged them away for few minutes to grab a late dinner.
I need to go to bed, since I’ve had the hardest time waking up for class the last couple of mornings
Thanks for all the wonderful comments! kitsune, tuan, manda, Jem, Christine, Arwen, Joni, Laura, Dee, Rach, Sam, Kitty, ubaid, ava, Chette, Janey, Michelle, Miracle, Trinnah, and Daynah. Have a great night!

My internet has been acting sluggish, too. AT least I know it’s not just me.
You are a brave soul for going on any carnival ride. There are wayyyyyyy to many accidents from thaose things for me to be climbing on one.

Not in my life would you get me on that thing!
I don’t mind rollercoaters, but anything that goes round and round just makes me go
Speaking of tidying up, I’d better go and clear my sister’s room. She’s coming home from University in a couple of hours and seing as it’ll be quite late, she might go straight to bed… which is currently covered in all my junk. Hmm.

I hate the Zipper. We have it at our county fair each year. The first year it was there, I was around 10 years old. I didn’t want to go on it but my cousin and her friend made me. The guy said it would only go upside-down twice. Ours never stopped spinning. I laid in our camper the rest of the day (We camp there, even though it’s only 20 minutes away.)

Kamara and Bubs - the third and fourth people I’ve noticed whose connections are slow at the moment. And myself too. Maybe there’s a virus going around or something.

I want to see that movie. I love Vin Diesel. I don’t like getting on rides at carnivals either. They always look like 100 years old.

“my internet has been sluggish lately “
Not an expert, but here’s a couple suggestions if you haven’t tried them already:
1) Do you remember doing anything in particular just before it got sluggish?
2) How many applications do you have installed on the computer?
Disk defragmentation is good advice in any case.

Actually, I think it’s about time for disk defragmentation. Thanks for the advice!

I like carnavals, we have a fair now (it’s the same as a carnaval right?) Anyway I love those rides! Though I like rollercaosters more, we have a small rollercoaster at the fair but it’s not great, doesn’t do a looping;) I would love to see that film. Take care.

Oh, the Zipper! Last October when the fair was here we went on the Zipper and one of my friends was with me, and it was so great…he was so scared, he was screaming, “Jesus! Jesus save me! Oh, Jesus, I’m coming home!” Really, I couldn’t be scared because of him. A carnie also verbally attacked him and made him sit in the cage bowlegged since he’s so tall…flipping upside down with your legs probably didn’t help him.
I thought Chronicles was just okay, Zach loved it. I think they’re planning on a trilogy, because of how the last one ends…not sure how I feel about that, sort of how I’m not sure how I feel about Shrek 3 and 4…
