So many field trips in the last few days! I must have eaten oysters or something. Last night's field trips was one of the best ones ever! Ashlee was leaving for vacation the next day (today), so we had to do something more kickass than usual!! At the last minute, we went to go see the fireworks.

It was 8 pm, so we had 2 hours to get down there! We drive down to the Scott Road station, and I pay for parking. Then we go to buy the tickets... but I don't have any change on me! Only a $20 dollar bill! And the machine eonly accepts $5 or $10 bills! We go around asking random people for change for a 20, and all of them said they didn't. I bet some of them were lying. Then I get the BRILLIANT idea to go back to the parking lot ticket machines, pay for another parking, stick the $20 in, and get $19 back in loonies! IT WORKED!!! So we buy tickets and RUN up the Skytrain stairs to catch the Skytrain, and got in just in time.

The Skytrain ride was pretty fun, some cops came in and busted this guy who seemed to have alcohol in his Sprite bottle. HA HA!!

When we got to downtown Vancouver, there was such a crowd there that it was crazy. We made an elaborate plan to get ahead of the crowd by..... walking faster. When that didn't work, taking a few back alleys to avoid the crowd was considered! That got us places (lost a bit). But it was all good. I saw some kids from my old high school too, I'm sure a lot of you out there know Jacob Hoggard! What a chimp!! Haha.

Ashlee knew a special spot where we could see the fireworks really well! But to get to it, we had to climb over a fence. Now this was not a climb-able fence, it was one of those gay waist-high orange plastic meshes. We tried looking for an easier way to the other side that wouldn't involve loss of my nutsack, but alas there was no other way. It takes balls to "step over" one of those stupid half-assed fences.... because when you have one laeg over and try to get the other one over, your nuts aren't exactly in the most comfortable situation.

I climbed over the fence, doubtful I'll ever have any kids again. Then when Ashlee was about to do it, some old lady points to the corner of it and says "you can go under it you know!". I saw there was a hole there that I could have gone through, and I was like "shit bitch fuck twat tittly lick!!!!!". Anyways we go there and watch the fireworks. I didn't like them much, firworks don't really turn me on. I just like to go to them cause it's a fun trip! So yeah, all around me people were like "oooh aah" at all the flashes of light going along with the slightly gay 70's music.

Finally, they were over, and we make a mad dash to get the fuck out of there! It was harder to go faster than the crowd though, since everyone was fucking crammed together, and if you tried to go in any other direction from the flow of the crowd, you'd get trampled upon. If the crowd was going off the cliff and into the water like lemmings, everyon ein Vancouver would drown. Seriously we were packed like sardines in the streets, I unintentionally touched many hot chick's asses, but I wasn't complaining.

I noticed a strange smell, and people around me were coughing and rubbing their eyes. I heard someone say "Pepper Spray!", and a few seconds later I realized.... it was pepper spray! I guess the cops were really bored or something and decided to unleash some of that shit into the air and entertain themselves. Fucking cops!

Shlee drags me on a detour and we start running through a small street to get away from the crowd. Another elaborate plan surfaced to beat the crowd to the Skytrain station. Instead of walking faster then them, we'd RUN to the Skytrain station. So we ran, ran some more, ran even more, got tired and stopped, and ran again.

Then we got lost!!

So for like the neext half hour we were walking around trying to get un-lost. It was some funny shit I tell ya! We ask a whole bunch of people for directions, and then we didn't follow their directions properly and got more lost, and I was taking pictures of buildings the whole time, but eventually we came to some Skytrain Station. WOOHOO!!!!! I started to feel non-retarded again!

We get on the Skytrain, and surprisingly it wasn't that crowded, we got some good seats! Unfortunately, the next station was TOTALLY crowded, and while we were going past them Shlee was laughing at them... until the train stopped and the doors opened! The Skytrains filled up like a Surrey whore after getting paid $2. There was this old guy who was sitting in the chair really close to us. Shlee decided to try and make all the people around us laugh! So everytime we got to a station, and the female voice said "The next station is...", Ashlee would repeat that over and over again in a funny voice. And yeep, the chinese people all around us were laughing. The old guy across from us was looking at us like we were drug addicts or something, I'm sure we looked like we were on some crazy shit.

Then me and Shlee had an intense game of rock, paper, scissors. After a few thousand turns, Ashlee tried to get the other people around us involved too. It was fucking hilarious, we had a big giant game of rock paper scissors, and the old guy now had a really funny expression on his face.

On the way to Boston Pizza my cell phone fell out for the second time during the night and smashed into a million pieces. Well, it only smashed into 3, but putting it back together with a simple mind like mine, seemed like a million pieces. It still worked! Sweetass.

At BP I got a chocolate explosion and Shlee got a pizza. We talked about stuff there, and left after an hour or so and went to my place. We listened to some music and stuff, and then I drove her to her house at like 3:30 am! The gas needle on the van was on empty, so I was hoping that I'd make it to her house and back, and luckily, I did!
