"Break" is always a teasing title...

I don't know why I always come home for a break from school expecting to really slow down. That never happens because there are so many people to see, and everyone lives all over the place. Since I moved in with my dad, that adds to the chaos even more because I have to coordinate my drives up there for errands/seeing family to fit in as many visits with friends as I can since I am not, in fact, made of gas money. It'd be nice, though. I've gotten a lot of time in with the family though, and I've gotten some serious time with my nephew, too, so it's been a good time.

The next thing on the agenda is leaving for Vegas at 7ish tomorrow morning with my aunt. I'm pretty excited to go and see a lot of the stuff that I see all the time in movies and such. I'm not big on gambling because 1) I don't have much money and 2) I'd rather spend money on something that's not possibly throwing away money, but I do plan on playing some poker and some slots. I plan on taking a ton of pictures, too. We're only there for 3 days, and I think that's the perfect amount of time for such an expensive city. This will be another city on my list of places to see that I will be able to cross off in a few days. Still a lot of traveling to do before my list is complete, though. :)

I have this thing for airports. I really like exploring them. I've only been to three that I really remember, but one doesn't count because tomorrow will be my first time being there to actually travel rather than just to drop someone off. I like sitting amidst all of the action, though, and the excitement of going somewhere different.

Before any trip begins, the packing must get done. I've been focusing on music and miscellaneous things while slowly packing, but it's time to buckle down and get it done now.
