In the Mountains
Well, I'm in Boone now. I slept most of the way here, and then kept sleeping once we arrived. I'm exhausted, but having fun. Tonight I'm not going to the campground (I'm not a fan of humid tent-life in the rain), but I'll be there tomorrow when the weather has cleared up.
And since the house here has DSL, in a room other than my grandparents', I can stay online all night long if I want to. Plus, there's satellite TV. Yippee.
I'm starting to think about what to buy now that I'm in the USA. Only 2 things come to mind:
1) A portable DVD player for those long trips to different universities.
2) DVDs to watch on it.
Hopefully I'll have enough money to buy those - portable DVD players have really lowered in price since a few years ago ($1200 then to as low as $100 now). Plus, there are some great, cheap video games I could always buy if I get bored.
Hm...Mission Impossible 3 is due to be released on June 29, 2005. Now that I know it's definitely being made, I can only hope it will be better than the last one. If they keep making these, eventually Tom Cruise is going to get too old. I can just imagine Mission Impossible 4: Nursing Home Invasion...
That's all I can think to write about.
