It's about time...

So, for my personal profile, I state the following:
"A traveler's responsibility is to share their tales. These are mine..."

Well, what a bunch of bologna that has been!! -->Oscar Mayer bologna that is



I haven't posted absolutely anything about my travels!!
Looks like I've got some work to do. A lot of work! The problem is this: Where do I begin?!!?

Hmm, let's start with today, and then I'll work back...

Right now, I'm in lovely Greece! I've only been in Greece for 2 days so far, and I haven't done too much as of yet. I mean, I've slept in every day until about 1PM, made food, started a new book Knitting Under the Influence (It's a really good, light, summer beach read) , and watched the TV. Oh, yeah, I did go out once so far for a Greek dinner with these two Aussie girls I met on the boat ride over here. So, these 2 days have mostly been R&R for me.

Tomorrow I plan on getting out and exploring actual Greek things.
I'll continue my other blogposts about studying in the South of Italy, interning at an Italian BMW shop, Venice, Cinque Terre, Greek islands, taking a 20+ hour boat ride on only the deck of a boat to get to Greece....just be patient. I'll keep you posted..pun intended ;0

Lost


Alright, so I'm finally on the bandwagon, and I love it.  That's right, I am just now watching Lost!  Sure it's a little late, considering how it's currently on Season 5 and I am only halfway through Season 1, but I totally dig it!

I went online to do Sawyer's nickname game, and I came out at Gizmo...thanks Sawyer!

V-chatting

Oh man! Video chatting, or as I like to call it v-chatting, it such a great invention! I mean, you can talk to anyone from anywhere in the world as long as they have an internet connection and a web-cam.

Well, V-chatting is even better when you are chatting with your next-door neighbors. Yes, those of us at the Girls' House chatted with our next door neighbors, the T-Home, about nonsense over Gmail's V-chatting capabilities. It was definitely the most fun ever!


The highlights:
  • Scaring Jess twice and catching it on the web-cam.
  • Capturing Jess' face via PrintScreen and playing with it on Photoshop.
  • Non-stop laughing among Lo, Matt, Jess, Don, a little bit Chipper, and me!
  • Talking to our next door neighbors while running back and forth from each house to chat to different people using V-chat!
  • Too much fun!

Wowzer!

A 772-pound stingray was captured in Thailand!

It was caught with a fishing pole making it the largest freshwater fish caught by a rod and reel. 

After catching it, the British scientist tagged and released the female stingray for a program protecting the endangered animal.  Thailand is known for killing and eating stingrays.

Imagine getting stung by this fella!  Wowzer!

Hammerhead Lovin'

So, I really love changin' things up. As you may have noticed, I have been repeatedly changing my blog title and descripti0n since the beginning. I think it's fun; it adds some spice!

Well, lately, I've been thinking that I should stick to a theme, you know, to add some familiarity in my blog. I think I'm starting to narrow it down. You see, since my URL is hammerheadroberts@blogspot.com, I've been thinking that I may stick with the hammerhead theme. Why not? They are wicked cool!

I can tell already that I won't want to stick strictly only hammerheads. What I'll probably end up doing is vary it slightly. Maybe I'll stick with an ocean/water theme. I mean even my (well actually Robert Plant's) quote "an though the course may change sometimes, rivers always lead to the see" is regarding H2O. We shall see, friends. We shall see...

Anywho, enjoy these badass picz.

Boogie Fever

I really love how Beyoncé, or Miss Sasha Fierce's, video was directed (by Jake Nava) and, especially, choreographed (by JaQuel Knight).  

 


Since it lacks a set, the dance moves really shine!
