Tuesday's Are Down Town Days...

...And they always have been, but today was really fun.


We had French, which was kind of fun, but also a bummer cause I'm 'getting' it a lot faster than my brothers and I kind of get bored :D


So we got done with that a we went to McDonalds. I had barely been to McDonalds before I came here...buut things change. So, my mom wanted to spend 15 dollars on lunch instead of 50 at the museum (understandable) So, we got McDonalds. So, there are doing the Monopoly thing right now, and we had like 6 of the little pieces. Soo, there was a group of people next to us were collecting them, and my mom was like, 'hey, we should give these to them.' (In my head I was thinking, "If we keep coming to McDonalds like we have been, we'll probably win the whole game.) Anyway, so she handed the pieces to the a person from the group who then was like, 'ohh, thank you so much!' and the other people in the group were like, 'what, your giving those to her, you should have given them to me...' It was all in good spirit of course. Anyway, so there was a lot of shuffling around and stuff, and my brother turns to me and says, 'Today: French, McDonalds, Slagle-caused Riot. What else is going to be interesting today?' Haha, so, we kind of, almost (not really) caused a riot at McDonalds.



After we left McDonalds, we walked back across the street and went down the stairs to the Red Line where we got our tickets and boarded the subway system. It was all done very fast though, because we were running down the stairs while the tram was waiting for us...which is something that it very rarely does. So, we got aboard it, took it to the Adler Planetarium.



The planetarium was very interesting, it was kind of boring, almost like an art museum...there was a lot to look at, a lot to read, and we had to be kind of quiet. We saw a really cool movie about Black Holes, it was realy cool until I kind of fell asleep cause I didn't all the way understand what it was saying. And then we went to this planets exibit that showed us the sun in real time, and what the planets look like in comparison to eachother...it was more interesting than the movie. Annd, my lifelong dream has been fullfilled, I found out that I weigh 147lbs and I'm 24 years old on Saturn. I can die now. :p



So, then they had an exibit with the Little Einsteins and weather...Christian and I had a lot of fun acting like we were 4 again and chasing eachother around the floor.



Hehe, well, I think that's all for now!

More Later!
