Hang Out and Post

[Spritzie]

We have a candy store in one of the malls here, that does snow cones.

 

Hawaii??? I'm jealous. I'd love to go there someday. My cousin went there for a volleyball tournament. She almost got a scholarship there.

[Tyler.]

shaved ice and snow cones both own, we can leave it at that :P

[Spritzie]

I agree with that, Tyler. What is it with you two? You're both making me crave stuff I can't have. :sad02:

[Divya Bean]

You guys think Hawaiin snowcones are the best?! That is not true!!!! The best ones are in Spain! OMG! The ones on the beach are ah-mazing! Plus they come in weird flavors like guava and carrot :laughingsmiley: .

[Spritzie]

Oh come on! Not you too! I want one now. But by the time I get off work, the mall is closed. <_<

[Divya Bean]

Heehee!! But Spain's are the best! I love Spain so much more than I do crummy old Philadelphia (no offense to the Philadelphians!). Have you ever been there? To Spain, not Philadelphia.

[Tyler.]

never been to Spain, never had their snow cones.

[Spritzie]

No. Not yet. I'm plotting though. One day, we'll make it to Europe. And beyond. I have a nice little list of places I want to go to. Germany, (I'm German), Ireland (My husband is Irish), Italy, Paris... Cairo, Egypt. I know he'll want to go to Japan. Someday... :yes:

[Captain Awesome Pants]

I want to go to England, Ireland, Poland, and Germany. :yes:

 

And France. But only because I'm pretty sure that it's legal there to marry anything (some lady married the Eiffel Tower) so I'm want to move there and become a citizen, then marry Porygon. :D

[livvy]

Carrot snowcones? That sounds so... not good.

 

I would love to travel. I've never been out of the country. Period. I think the farthest I've been from home is Texas. But I'd really love to go to France and England, just for all the historical stuff. (Odd, considering I hate history classes.)

 

Hehe, Laura, you should. :P But only if I can be your bridesmaid!

[Spritzie]

There's just something awesome about Europe. There's so many amazing things to see... castles, cool cities... it's exciting. Plus, then there's the Asian countries. I can't wait until I get the chance to travel.

[Captain Awesome Pants]

Of course, Livvy. Of course.

 

It's because mass amounts of history took place in Europe, and most of us have ancestors from there.

[livvy]

I'm pretty sure the same amount of past has taken place everywhere, Laura. :P

[Spritzie]

That's true. That's why I want to go to Germany so badly. I'm mostly German. (And a little bit Swiss) My grandma used to love telling about how her parents (or grandparents) came over the US. They came from Russia, directly (As she also liked to tell, they got caught up in that whole, come to Russia, we'll give you land, thing) But they were German. It just makes me curious to see more about my heritage. Same with my husband, and Ireland.

[Captain Awesome Pants]

I'm pretty sure the same amount of past has taken place everywhere, Laura. :P

 

Oh hush up. <_< You know what I meant. The most EXCITING history mainly came from Europe.

 

Well, Asia had some pretty interesting history as well. But places like Africa and America... well, history there was unknown for quite some time.

[livvy]

If you consider a bunch of old royal people dying and starting wars and then dying some more while your history professor drones on and on thinking he's interesting when he's really *continues mumbling*

 

Asia did have interesting history. :yes:

[Spritzie]

I think visiting parts of Asia would be awesome. There would be a lot of cool things to see in China and Japan. And I'd love to go see Russia. The buildings... I had a pen pal from there, years ago.

[livvy]

Really? That's cool! I had a pen pal from Minnesota. Far less exciting. :P I'd love to visit Japan. I have a friend from there, and she tells me all kinds of interesting stories.

[Spritzie]

Some people we knew, went over seas, and my parents asked them to get my sister and I pen pals. Mine was in Russia (With the same name as my sister) and my sister's was in Japan.

[Captain Awesome Pants]

I had a pen pal in Florida. She had horrible grammar, but she was an amazing graffiti artist, and she wrote my name in her style and sent the paper to me. I think I still have it somewhere....

[Spritzie]

I used to write to a girl in New Mexico. An elderly couple knew both of us, and put us in touch. We wrote for a few years, then she came into CO to visit family, and I got to meet her. Next thing I knew, her great-uncle got very sick, they ended up moving here. Her and I were joined at the hip for probably, 3 years. I spent probably, 5 nights a week at her house.

 

Then I saw the light and got out of there as quick as I could. lol

[livvy]

Then I saw the light and got out of there as quick as I could.

 

Huh? What light? Am I missing something? o_O

[Spritzie]

She was.... not a good person to be around. My parents saw it, but seeing as I was 15-18, they couldn't tell me anything. I had to see it for myself.

[livvy]

Oh... It's quite sad when stuff like that happens. I had a friend who I thought was a good friend. She turned out to be... less than good for me.

[Spritzie]

Ever since then... I haven't had any super close friends that I could hang out with... except the friend I grew up with. (My sister's best friend) I've known her my whole life (she's roughly 6-7 yrs older than me) But we fell out of touch in the last year or so. So my closest friends were online. My best friend, is actually in Kentucky.
