Music: Forces of Evil - Hey! Woo! Yeah!

Aw yeah, break.
Okay so not much has happened just yet, but I was expecting that. I didn't get on the road until about quarter to four on Friday so I barely got home in time for dinner. But I'm glad I did! We had the yummy cubed pork with cumin and other spicey stuff on it, which is one of my favorite things my dad makes. Hooray!
Saturday I woke up late, but had a few things I wanted to do. First of all, I wanted to finally get the improved GBA. The one I have hurts my hands. PLUS, if I have two GBAs with me when I go to Canada, if V gets a link cable, we can play Crystal Chronicals! Hooray!
Before I went to the Gamestop, I made a trip in to Scotti's to visit Giffen. I hung around there for about an hour, not buying anything, before finally going to the Game store.
I only have a few really good GameBoy games, so before getting the new hardware, I decided to look for a new game to celebrate. As I looked through the racks of bad ports and TV show tie-ins lo and behold what do I see? SIM CITY 2000! One of my fondest childhood memories now on an awkward port to the GBA! Hooray!
So I pick up the game and a happy blue SP (it's so cool) and I head back home to play a little Sim City before mom gets home and we need to go clothes shopping. I had to get more shirts. I think I have around 7 at any given time, and that just doesn't work with warm weather coming up. Before mom got home I got a good ways in to one city...but it wasn't doing so well. I've lost my magic! But I'll get it back. If I can kick ass at, like, 13, I think I'll pull it off once I get the kinks out :P. My newest city seems to be working out well. Hooray!
After awhile, Mom got home and we went to get some new clothes. Wow. There are some very cool looking clothes that look absolutely rediculous on me. But in the end, I got a few new nice shirts and a cute skirt. But my favorite new thing is a hat that when I wear it looks rather like a fedora! Now I can wear my trenchcoat with a fedora! Hooray!
And I still need clothes, though, which I can get at the awesome stores in Toronto! Hooray!
....So now I'm bored. I was going to go to the mall, but that's fallen through. I wanted to pick up Golden Sun today, but I'm just going to go to the mall all alone. I'll probably just head down to Chester again. I feel kinda bad bugging Giffen two days in a row, but I actually have a CD I want to get (I was there yesterday looking for "Turn the Radio Off," but it wasn't there. Today I'd like to find "Oceans Ave" or "Beautiful Garbage"). But, at the end of the day, I will have to pack what few outfits I have preperation to go to Toronto! Hooray!
