So right now while uploading my photos, I decided to put on a Van Halen record I picked up a little while back, and it is terribly awesome. Every song so far has at least three “ow”s in it and tons of “ooooh yeah”s. It’s funny but I actually like it.

Now on to the good stuff.

I finally heard from Christina after 3 days of nothing, it made me extremely happy.

I decided I dont want to watch TV this summer, so I went out and bought some books.

The Fate of Liberty: Abraham Lincoln and Civil Liberties

Nothing Like It in the World: The Men Who Built the Transcontinental Railroad

Himmler’s Crusade: The Nazi Expedition to Find the Origins of the Aryan Race

I have a bunch of other books I really need to catch up on. About 8. My goal is to get through them all by the end of this year. Yea I know that a long time but I am a slow reader.

Recently my cousin Mikey came into town for the summer. Its always good hanging out with him.

Especially when swimming and playing a few good games of shark.

“What is Shark?” you ask.

One person is deemed shark.

Decide on the number of times one must be attacked before becoming a shark.

The Shark must take someone under water and hold them for 3 seconds in order to be considered an attack.

Last survivor becomes the shark in the next round.

People (not the shark) are only allowed on land for 3 seconds.

No punching or kicking.

(optional) Have a fun island with a hole in the center.

(optional) Play at night with a bunch of friends.

After the game of shark we all came in a just hung out and played Worms on PSP and Call of Duty 4 multiplayer.

On another note, I couldn’t sleep last night so I went out and tested out the night function on my camera.

My favorite of the whole group.
