I just completed one of my life goals today...

I smoked hookah while driving in a car and let me tell you it was amazing and very fulfilling. A friend of our pulled up next to us and we passed him the hose while we were driving, it was pretty fly. Very synchronized and skilled.

I'm sure all the drivers looking at us were pretty impressed, I know I was =D

So Israel just bombed the Beirut airport and all traffic has stopped. The streets are dead quiet and I'm sure all the people there are just pissed off they have to go through all of this again. Good thing George and I got out when we did, we would've been screwed. I guess God just timed everything perfectly, like usual... =)

Well I'm back in America now, it's been a few days, but I've been too busy/lazy to post anything. Life is getting back to normal, I've been hanging out with everyone I've missed and I started work again.

I plan on working more for the rest of summer to be able to save up and buy a computer, but we'll see if that happens, my friends have been in a let's spend a lot of money mood.

I'll keep you guys posted if anything interesting happens, woo woo

Okay so today started off with George's dad and I getting me a new cell phone. It's pretty nice, and it has Lebanese on it, which is pretty original if you ask me.

We then began to shoot off all of the fireworks we bought. These weren't just typical American fireworks, they were straight up illegal fireworks. These things shot up into the air Disneyland style, blinding us with all sorts of colors. There was also one that spun like crazy and floated into the air shooting out sparks. It would always hover over George and I and try to kill us, it was nuts. Fireworks here are fun, Independence day 2006, woo woo.

Later that night George and I picked up his friend and went to a bar and chilled with his friend and his friend's friends. I had a really good pizza there. We had a few drinks, enjoyed ourselves and then we decided it was time to go home.

When we got back to the car someone had double parked and blocked us in. I tried everything to get into the car, but it just wasn't happening, we were blocked in. So, drastic times called for drastic measures. George and I devised a plan and began to set it into action.

After a lot of convincing on my part, he popped open the trunk, grabbed a crowbar and aimed for the window of the car. He hit it, but nothing happened. He then it again and the thing shattered. He ran to his car and got it started while I jumped into the car blocking us. I dropped the handbrake, put the bastard in neutral and moved the car backward so we could get out. Every time I would shut the door more glass would fall on the ground. I then hopped back into the car and pulled the handbrake back up and put it in park. I ran out, hopped into George's car and we took off like lightning. It was amazing, although I never got to blow anything up, I think this makes up for it and I can finish my vacation with a feeling of completion.

We're now back home and we're safe, no one followed us... Mission Accomplished!

Italy beat Germany with two amazing goals with 5 minutes left of overtime. It was an amazing finish. Now that Germany and England are both out I can rest easy knowing a decent country will win the world cup.

The sketchiest thing happened to me the other day. We went to this guy's house, a friend of george's friend. He had a nice place, but it was only one room of a house. The rest of the house was all trashy and dirty and the windows had no glass, no real doors, etc. The guy only owned that one room in the house.

I had to go to the bathroom, so I asked him where it was. He points me down this hall and says "it's over there, here take the gas mask". I was like what?, then he said yeah man trust me you don't want to go to the bathroom without the gas mask. He hands it to me and it's a full on gas mask, with oxygen filters and everything. I start heading towards the bathroom and it just gets dirtier as I walk down. I get to the bathroom and it's disgusting, I handle my business and go to wash my hands and no water comes out of the sink.

I was like screw it, I go back and they ask if I really needed the gas mask and I just told them I was too scared to take it off...

Portugal beat England today, which was amazing, but France also beat Brazil, which was a bitter-sweet end for me. I wanted Brazil to win the world cup, but I also had to side with France because I was born there. So I was with France during the game and I'm glad my team won, but I'm also sad Brazil lost.

I went to this private beach today, it was pretty funny cuz it was a pool overlooking the beach and that's what we swam in and all the lawn chair circled the pool. No one even bothered with the beach, lol.

I was thinking how crazy it would be to make a game where you're God. Think the sims, but the characters have the A.I. of real humans. They live and worship you if they choose and you can reveal yourself to whatever extent you desire. You can see and think everything they think and maybe even set up filters for juicy information. How nuts would that be.

One week left, then I'm back home, I'm getting a bit homesick now, so I'm glad it's coming, woo woo
