WTF HAPPENED?
Alright alright I’m just going to say it. I fucking miss life before this corona virus shit. I miss my friends, I miss shopping, I miss going out to eat at restaurants, I miss traveling, I miss partying, I could go on forever with everything I miss at this point, but I’ll leave it at that. It’s been like 4 months since shit got real out here in America, 4 MONTHS!! How crazy is that? I’m always thinking about how much longer this will go on for, and I genuinely think that this is going to carry on into 2021.
Every big event will probably get canceled this year, but I am craving a festival. Coachella and EDC both got moved to October and it probably won’t happen still - an entire year without one concert or music festival now that is FUCKED. Also don’t even get me started about Disneyland… I think about Disneyland almost everyday. That is the first pace I’m going when all this shit is over. I want to eat a giant turkey leg, 10 churros, and I miss the smell of the water on the pirates of the Caribbean ride (if you know you know). I also have yet to go there since the new star wars stuff opened and I’m going to find me a nice storm trooper after I indulge about 10 drinks since they sell alcohol there now. So if you see me at Disneyland blacked out, mind your business (just kidding - not really).
It was kind of nice at first how everything was closed, we were able to find new hobbies and just relax. We had a little break from life, but at this point I think I can speak for everyone and say that we all want life to go back to normal. You wanna know what sucks the most about this in my opinion? That its summer time while this is going on. Why could’t it have started last year during right before winter like in August, but no it started during the best time of the year. When it’s warm and sunny out and we have the most free time. Gosh darn you corona. Worst timing ever. You guys know that I love to travel and I had to cancel all my summer plans this year. No Europe, no Asia, literally nothing. I’m hoping by July Mexico will be open so I can spend my birthday out there, but is that sketch? At this point who cares. I’m not scared at all at getting the virus anymore, if it happens it happens.
The only good thing about living in Arizona is that life is completely back to normal here. Restaurants are open, bars, clubs, literally everything. I went to go have dinner a few nights ago and let me tell you, IT FELT GOOD. It was nice to leave the house and get out and just do something that we were’t able to do for months. Not going to lie, its nice living somewhere you’re able to be normal again. For as many people who live in Arizona, the percentage of people with corona virus out here is practically nothing. Also living in fear is not the way that I want to live, so might as well just do what makes you happy. I flew through China late February coming back from Bali when the virus was at its peak, now that was super sketch! You’re going to tell me with all my travels and things I have done, I didn’t get the virus? I strongly believe that at one point I had to have had it, just no symptoms. You can’t get the virus if you don’t get tested for it (that’s sarcasm btw so don’t take it seriously ppl). It’s fine, I’m fine, everything is fine. 2020 is cancelled, we’ll try again next year. PEACE.
