But also one of the most tiring. Oh yes, I'm talking about Disneyland. Or, Jizzneyland as some of us call it (we're teenagers, we think of these things). I'm definitely not about to write every little thing that happened, because there was so much. I will say this though, I went home on 1 hour of sleep in two days, My feet and legs hurt so bad I couldn't even walk. I looked at myself in the mirror and my eyes were almost completely red save for my pupils. I fell asleep on the bus sitting straight up. It was quite the weekend.
We got back at around 6:45 AM. I went to my Grandmother's apartment and fell on the bed. No, literally, fell on the bed, and passed out. After the bus ride I had just had, it was the only thing I knew how to do. My seat partner, mate, buddy, whatever you want to call it, he took up almost a seat and a half, and he's about five foot, three inches. Whenever I even touched him, he said, "Get off me dude!" So basically, I had to sleep in a ball trying to not further the contusions in my already damaged spine. If you read this, you know who you are, and I forgive you.
I got back, and I was a little bored, so I started messing around on Twitter. I was there to witness the hacking of Lil Wayne's account, and the guy who did it was posting a bunch of stupid little things, but among all that was a link to download an album. It was one of those underground hip-hop albums with the free downloads. Weary of all the terrible rapping on the Internet, I pressed it. I listened to a couple tracks of it, and realized how good it actually was. The album is called Welcome To The Robot Army by, not sure how to pronounce this, [^_-]. The name of the artist made me even more scared to listen to it, but it ended up being a very good rap album. If you want to hear it for yourself, google it. Type in "Welcome To The Robot Army" and click the first link. Voila!
For all you rap fans out there, in my opinion, the best place for underground hip-hop is www.datpiff.com. Seriously, it has all the mixtapes that I wanted. Many people don't know this, but artists, in addition to putting out albums, put out mixtapes as well. Mixtapes are basically self-produced albums from the artist, almost always free (except Wiz Khalifa, he put his on iTunes). They usually just get the word out about an artist, and many of the songs are only about 2 or 3 minutes long. Some of the best rappers of the 21st century have out more mixtapes than albums. Some don't even have an album out yet, but have almost 200 songs on mixtapes (Cory Gunz, Drake, etc.). Mixtapes are a really cool way to discover new hip-hop. Don't forget that a lot of rock bands put out mixtapes too, so be on the lookout for those as well.
This morning, at around 11 AM, I was woken up by the sound of people (my stepdad and his friend specifically) moving out my Grandmother. She's moving from the building she's in now, to a place called the Westward Ho. Rude awakening of the year award goes to me. My mom arrived later with bread and a potato pie breakfast thing that I thought was cheescake. The fatigue was truly setting in. I ate up, and about 20 or so minutes later, got the hell out of there.
I arrived at my Dad's house a little later, and went straight upstairs, but sleeping was a total fail. I then proceeded to pick weeds in my backyard for three hours. It's times like these that I feel like a real Mexican.
My new obsession is the Angry Birds app on the iTouch. It's only 99 cents, but I'll be damned if it isn't the most addicting game I've ever owned! You should definitely get it, it's worth the dollar.
