Venice Beach

WahH~~ Hello everybody~!
I went to Venice Beach today fer my Animation Field Trip.
We woke up, ate breakfast as usual (eggs and hashbrown con ketchup) and waited fer the bus to show up.
Ou a charter bus! How nice XD

Yah, like an hour, we arrived at the beach. I guess its near Santa Monica or something. Its like Santa Cruz Boardwalk in away....without the rides and attraction. There was a skate park and boardwalk with tons of shops. It was like watching those film or something. And those tall pine trees. Heheh. We walked on the beach and drew pictures of the site of people and scenery. We had assignments to do. So we walked around and drew more pictures. (Quick sketches) My group has Helder and T.Dog as our leader. Heheh. it was cool since both of their birthday were on July 19, and we called them the "twins".

We had to also draw street performers. I think we got ripped off. There was this dude who set the limbo stick really low. So that attracted our eyes. And we gathered up to see if he can pull it off. But instead he did some weird chants and entertaining the audience by making them wear this straw hat and make them look like idiots. He did do a limbo thingy, but he set the bar higher than before and he carried a plate of cups of water. And went onto jumping on broken glass. But it was apparent that he landed on the crushed ones and not the pointed ones. Good thing he didn't bleed XO But crazy old man....

So about the end of the day, I ate some strawberry sherbert (which were delicious)! ANd then another weird dude, named Harry Perry wearing a turban and robe and carrying an electric guitar, and started playing and sinigng weird music. Obviously he's performing fer the money. Kinda sad how these people are like poor and do these weird things fer a living.

Okie, my roomate has a tan ^^;;; Luckily I didn't caught any sunburn. Fufufu.

Yah, thats about it.
Ja ne! I miss y'all.
*need to call my parents*
