Summer days...
So summer school finally got out about 2 weeks ago and summer officially began. So far it's been alright. Took a family trip up to Canda. This time it was longer than 1-2 days. We stayed a record of 4 days =O. Well I think we stayed longer that time we went only to Whistler, but this time just felt long. We hung around the Richmond area the first day, ate some good food, and did a little shopping. Next day we left for Whistler and walked around there. We didn't really have much of a purpose for going there so all we really did was look at what there was to do. During the summer they have stuff like ATV-ing, paintball (actually year round i think), 2 huge golf ranges/courses, kayaking, and other stuff. There was a bit of stuff to do, but we only stayed for one night. I don't really know why my parents wanted to go up to Whistler for 1 day... Anyway, we left Whistler the next day and drove back to Richmond where we ate some more good food, shopped some more and other typical canada trip stuff. And yea the next day was the same. I enjoy the food and the shopping, but really 3 days of it can be just a little repetitive. Especially when you're with your family...
Lately I've been into cars, like customizing them. I bought one of those Import Racer magazines and found it kinda cool. I'm not into completely changing a civic into a rice rocket, but I think that some small changes can make a nice car look even better. (note: I believe rice rockets are a waste of metal, gas, and my time since I usually go on ranting about how bad one looks when it drives by) Take for example my cousin, he's got a Lexus IS300 (i'm so jealous >_<) and he doesn't turn it into a rice rocket, but has little things that make it more personalized and distinguished than other ones. A new, simple, good looking front bumper, maybe a some slightly bigger rims, and tinted windows, can make a car look 100x better than the stock version. If I ever got a car, I'd probably want to change a few things to it too. Nothing really extravaggent, but stuff I see useful. Such as, perhaps, tinting my windows so I can drive carpool w/o actually having any passengers =D Or if I really had the cash to burn, buy completely new rims and tires. I'd get slightly larger wheels, b/c they add more surface area to the tires, thus improving speed as well as braking. A nice sound system would be nice too, although that would probably be the priciest of anything I would change. That's if it didn't come with a decent one already. I'm really digging my cousin's in-dash 6 CD Changer thats in many Toyota/Lexus cars now. I wonder if any other company makes those to be installed. I'll have to check up on it later. Alas, my dreams will have to wait as my car is not worth changing. Sorry to dissappoint anyone who wanted to see a suped up 1992 Volvo 740 station wagon, but I'm surely not going to be the first to disgrace myself with that title.
I have a few new HK movies so I'll have to watch em and give some reviews. There are a few new other movies that I want to see, but I dunno when I'll see them. Napoleon Dynamite being one of them. Well, that's it for now.
