Oh, How I Love Surinam

My flights over here were fine. I was really happy to be home, but I do miss Justin. I went to the barn the next day. I was really excited to see all the horses and Shaun and everyone. I really missed being with everyone. The horses look really good. Zeloma is still a big pain. I don't have any pictures yet of anyone which is really weird for me. We have 3 new horses that need to be broken in and of course I get them. Hahaha. Heaven is REALLY scared of people, Biscuit still thinks he is a stallion and Eclipse is just a big butt.

I was really sad when Acorada's foal died. His heart just stopped in my arms. Shaun and I tried, but he was too weak :( sad day

I am sad that Shaun is gone though. He moved to Holland and I really miss him and all the horses he had to take care of are all my responsobility now. I like it, but sometimes it gets a bit much.

I saw Danny and Renee. That was nice. Kevin, Dunja and I went to his house and then we went to say goodbye to Shaun. I didn't cause I figured I would see him the next day.... I cried when I said goodbye to him on Sunday :(

Biscuit rode really well with me on wednesday and Thursday, but Xenne's stallion broke lose last night and beat him up really badly. He looks terrible. I feel so bad for him and now he is going to have to rest again. Which is a huge setback in his riding, but he'll be fine.

I am happy about being able to sit on Eclipse yesterday. Hopefully we can do it again today :)

Besides horses everything else is good. Becca came down to Surinam too. He had a lot of fun in Italy and I am SO jealous. I wish I had gone to Europe instead of the US :(
Ooh well. I wouldn't have met all my fun friends :)

Cedar Point

IS AWESOME!
I absolutely loved the park. There was only one problem. I am scared to death of coasters! But at first I thought I was scared of the twists and turns. Because of this I decided to ride Maxair. Which is just like a swing...kinda....and all you do is go higher and higher till you're practically upside down. I HATED IT! I wanted to get off so badly. So....after that was over and I was scared shitless....I discovered that I wasn't scared of the twists and turns. I was scared of the drops. Now here's the problem. EVERY coaster has a drop in it. I was a little disappointed. But I just decided to go on and do my best.
So me and Justin went on the Corkscrew(picture). It was really fun. Again, the initial drop was a bit scary. But all the loops and turns were really fun.


After the Corkscew we went to the Iron dragon. Which really wasn't that bad. Again, didn't like the drop, but it was fun.
We went on a kiddy ride called the Mine-something. It was a small funny coaster. Would have been a lot more fun, but it banged you around a whole lot and my head started to hurt. After that we went on these two water rides and got COMPLETELY soaked. The first one was in this big tube with a few other people. We floater down a small 'river' and, at first, it didn't seem like we were going to get wet. And then the waterfalls came.....Justin and I floated right under one! I was SO wet! So, we went on another one because we were already soaked. This one was just a drop. They pulled you to the top in a 'log' and just sent you flying to the bottom. Of course you got a bit....wet. But it was fun. All the water just splashed all over when you hit bottom. Really cool.


RAPTOR
So we moved on to our next Coaster. I was SCARED of this one. I didn't want to ride it and I told Justin I wouldn't. I was getting pretty moody half way through the LONG line of people. And I just wanted to go home. But for some aparent reason I sat down in that DAMN coaster. I was SO scared it was almost rediculous. I guess I just couldn't walk away when I was finally just right there. I could have just walked through and waved Justin off. Maybe I just wanted to prove something to myself. I don't know. But I sat down and strapped myself in. I was so scared and I started to cry even. With tears rolling down my face Justin took my hand and told me it was going to be ok. He told me we could go home after this one. My facial expression was not pleasant. He said I looked scared, confused, and angry all at once. And the coaster started moving. I was SO scared. And when it fianlly took off. I couldn't stop smiling! I had a BLAST! The drop wasn't bad at ALL. I guess couse you are strapped in differently with your feet dangling. So maybe I felt more secure cause you don't move around as much. But that coaster took me on the ride of my life. I had a blast. Justin said he looked over and all he saw was a HUGE smile on my face. That coaster just twisted and turned and turned you upside down. It was SO much fun! I loved it

MAVRIC
The next coaster had SUCH a long wait, but totally worth it. The first drop it 95 degrees. It was SO scary but I decided that it was only 2 seconds out of an awesome ride. The ride is SO fast and blasting through all the twists and turns. Every drop was insane. It felt like I was being thrown out of my seat every time. It was a blast

After the Mavric we went on the long drive home. I was really tired from a long day but it was worth it :)

WARPED TOUR '09

Random sign in the park. Thought it was funny :)

(incase u can't read it)

Consumption of food or beverage within vehicles parked outside the ballpark is unlawful and violators are subject to fines as prescripted by law.....

What the hell? It's illegal to eat in your car?

It was SO amazing. Justin and I went to Warped Tour '09 at Comerica Park in Detroit. I guess

it's Tiger Stadium. It's where the Detroit Tiger's play.

It was REALLY hot and sunny. I got burned so bad. My shoulders really hurt. Justin's neck

looks terrible! lol.

So Warped Tour is pretty much a bunch of bands that tour and throw a huge 20 band show! It was great. There were a bunch of stages and hundreds of people....some of them I really wanted to murder. GOD! The youth today is absolutely CRAZY! WHAT THE HELL! Girls were walkign around in bikinies, boys were wearing purple skinny jeans. And I swear if I had a pair of cissors I would have cut EVERY SINGLE Zac Effron haircut I SAW! OMG! They look SO stupid with their long hair and all the STUPID things thei wear. Jeez I miss the european fashion! The fashion that actually makes sence. And All the girls were just as bad. Seriously! What is wrong with people today. I saw a guy walking around with a sign saying "I hate scene whores" I laughed.

And it's SO right. I guess I really miss home. ahahah. But even Suriname as girles that dress

trashy and boys that dress just plain terrible. LoL

ANYWAYS!! The first band we saw was Big D and the Kids Table. It is SUCH a cool band. I guess they are punk/ska. No idea to tell you the truth, but they sounded awesome. And the crowd was fun. I kinda got sucked into the pit and got pushed around alot, but what better way to relieve all the built up tension and stress and frustration than by pushing around and running into guys that are twice as big as you and enjoying the music. Hahaha. I got pushed to the very front after a bit. The crowd kinda just pushed me there. It was much calmer at the frunt. But everyone's weight kinda got pushed on you when they want to come to the front. So it was a bit tight. But awesome. The lead singer stepped down from the stage and was standing on the fence leaning over the crowd. I wasn't right by justin but he said that the singer was leaning on his hand

singing right in his face. It was AWESOME! Lol. I was just a few people but it was still cool to see the guy so close. hahaha. I sound like a total dork but ok. It was cool.

We saw anti-flag and Less than Jake too and they were cool. I LOVED Westbound Train. They were SO awesome. I am sad that I didn't take a picture of them. lol. Their music is ska/soul/reggea. It was so much fun and the crowd was so cool and dancing and I of course was joining in in the dancing. hahah. It was a blast n I really liked them the most. They were fun with the crowd too. The best part was at the beginning of the show. There are 2 stages with similar names. And he pretty much told all the idiots(I'm pretty sure he used that word) who couldn't read to leave the crowd and let all their fans have more room. And half the crowd left. hahaha. It was so funny. The crowd that left were all the crazy scerrmo highschool kids. hahah. It was awesome.

The only band I didn't really like was Streetlight Manifesto. They weren't my favorite band, but the crowd was terrible. They were just so pushy and totally crushing me and i really couldn't get out. Me and the guy next to me were just like...WHAT THE HELL! WE WANNA GET OUT! But we couldn't. We were both kinda stuck there. It sucked. And it was hot and other people were so sweaty. Augh! It was frustrating! Yet ok at times. I was a bit irritated when it was over and I had lost justin from the beginning. lol

We saw Bad Religon after that. They were too loud and I was tired. So I sat on the crosswalk a bit and waited and we left when Justin was done listening. It was an awesome day

I did end up hurting my right leg though. Everyone was stepping on my right chin and kicking and jumping and it ended up pretty buised. And it already was bruised. I guess lesson learnd is that if your legs hurt, its gonna get worse. Hahaha. My left leg was left untouched.

Well....I think thats about it for now

Love!

We were taking a break after westbound train. It was tiring standing around all day. We were there from 10 AM till 7PM. We were SO tired :)
