go to Jamaica
Unpleasant 2 years ago

It’s a nice looking place with a nice, tropical feeling to it, but my experience with the people made for a bad time. I’ve been twice, and both times had to put up with a kind of tourist hell. Jamaica is a poor country, and people there border on abusive when it comes to their attempts to get money out of tourists. Everywhere you go there are tons of locals who just won’t give up… they follow you around pestering you and trying to get you to buy things. I know that you see that at most touristy locations, but the people in Jamaica really take it to a new level. On top of pushy sales tactics, almost nobody was friendly on either of my visits. I don’t think I’ll be going back again.



Watch "The Wizard of Oz" at the same time as listening to Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon"
Works rather well 2 years ago

I disagree with people who say that this only “sort of” works. Especially in the beginning of the movie the album totally syncs up with the movie, and it really gives it an entirely different feeling. I totally recommend doing this. It’s like watching an entirely different movie, and it’s quite entertaining.



go to bed and go to sleep, instead of lying in bed for hours staring at the ceiling because my brain won’t stop
Ugh 2 years ago

Last night was about the worst so far. Maybe got a couple hours of sleep, and there wasn’t a single good reason for me to be lying awake in bed. I was tired. It was a reasonable time to sleep. I just stared at the wall/ceiling without sleeping. Then, around 4:30am, my mechanical coin bank decided to randomly start rocking back and forth making chomping noises; scared the hell out of me.
