The beach trip is almost over. :( Wow am I sun burnt. Monday it rained...I mean it rained cats and dogs. And since our beach house is out in the middle of NOWHERE everyone went to the bar and started drinking. We turned cranked the music loud had the drinks flowing it was fun. Then my absolute favorite drunk song came on.

 Everyone has that one song they love when they are drunk, they scream/ babble loudly for it to be played...that your drunk song. Anyways my (and I probably am not alone) drunk song is Free Bird by Lynard Skynard. I proceeded to grab a pool stick jump on the pool table and belt out an air guitar Allen Collins solo. Everyone went nuts and unfornantly there more than one family member took a video of my "performance". I could never run for political office now haha, and my family has a permeant blackmail on me.  

Anyways today I tried something new, I learned how to hang glide. My mother once gave me a great piece of advise, she said "Never pass up an opportunity". I try to live my life by that motto so when my uncle asked if anybody wanted to spend the day in Hang Gliding school I thought nothing of it. It was AWESOME. I think I am addicted. Its so peaceful just chilling out up in the air. Just the idea that you got yourself up in the air, without any help from a motor or machine is pretty cool. Anyways I'll have to post pics of me but you get the general idea.

I am writing this entry  on the back deck facing the beach watch a thunderstorm off in the distance. Its so pretty and amazing at the same time. Minus the whole light from the laptop its pretty dark and then all of a sudden the sky will light up as lighting strikes way out in the ocean.  Pretty shades of red and pink. Even though we have 30 people in this  one house ( its a very big house actually 11 bedrooms) I escape to the highest deck at night and just listen to the waves. It gets so dark out at night thats about all you can do.  I love the sound of the ocean something about it is so relaxing. I have been doing lots of writing at the beach, got a new idea for a song I am working on. Its somewhat frustrating I have all of these ideas for songs/lyrics/ chord progressions but as soon as I start trying to develop that idea something else pops into my head and then I get sidetracked with that idea. I know not that bad of a problem to have, I just wished I had more time to in the day. Maybe I will give up sleeping and eating then I will have more time haha only joking. 

Cheers

Can't sleep so excited about the beach tomorrow. My sister and I are going to drive down around 4/5ish this morning. Its only a 5 hour drive so we should get there around 10am. Too bad we can't get the keys to the house until 2pm so we are just gonna chill at the beach, not a bad way to pass time. 

Today was my last day of my internship, bittersweet. I defiantly learned a lot though. Real Estate is very interesting, and there is a lot of money to be made [and lost] it in if you are no careful.  I have already started to save for a house after graduation. I figure I am a step ahead of most college students at-least by thinking about owning my own house. 

After work I treated myself bought a new camera for the trip. Hopefully this one will last longer than my average camera lifespan of three months. Car is packed got all I need; cooler full of beer, bathing suit, acoustic guitar, golf clubs,  surf board and some good books. Life is Good.
