Camping is fun stuff

I only went camping once before and that was when i was little, so that doesn't count.

This time around, i went camping and i thought it wasn't that bad at all.

Although the style of camping that i want still stands; have everything you need to survive for as long as you're camping on your back and head on into the wilderness with some trust worthy buddies that will spot you some help when you need it xD

So i was supposed to camp for 2 nights and 3 days over the Memorial Day weekend but it got cut in half because of the possible thunder storm weather.

Which was actually kind of BS because from what i've learned about weather.com, they're never dependable. I am actually more dependable than weather.com, to be a little honest.

Well camping, i wasn't fully prepared for the trip, or was my family... which conveniently packed the wrong things... *sigh* but no problemo there! my good neighbors covered us there and we had a great time. :D
So we went to Assateague State Park in Maryland for our camping trip, it was pretty awesome camping at a beach, smelling the salty ocean air, watching the big egg yolk sun set and gazing at the stars upon a clear and pitch black night.

It was what i imagined real camping to be. Where you get away from the lolwtf stuff of officework and *cough cough cry cry* HK Dramas and just sit back and enjoy wilderness like it was intended for man kind.
If i had the choice (key sentence formation), i would do it over and over again. I guess i can't explain the feeling, like everything else that i often want to explain but can't. these are the things you just have to experience yourself. i don't think my words are dependable for anyone other than myself, that's why i TRY not to force my philosophy on to others, because it just won't work.
But this is foshizzle right here, i mean. camping is good stuff if you like things done the old fashioned, yet depenadble and high tech way. I mean, my neighbor had flashlights that are so out of the world that they have a mile+ visibility and can even mess planes up. that's effing hardcore, yo! LOL.
mixing 21st century technology (but not too much) and just kickin it back old school. i think that's the way life is supposed to be. live in the days of your technology and your office work and then relax one in awhile.

Although, i do like to add that i'm not going to leave at 9am anymore. IT'S TOO LATE! all the good tent spots get taken... i mean... i think i slept on some rocks -_-
i had some trouble sleeping because of that and I FORGOT TO BRING MY FUCKING PILLOW. omg... my neck... my back... and the morning dew was too powerful for my aunt's semi-broken tent so the droplets of water went on my face... my neck my back and my face... hutcha...but it's all good.
for the second day, we went to Ocean City, which was about a 20 minute drive.
and the boardwalk is something amazing. i mean, if ripleys open a "Ripleys Believe it or not" on your boardwalk, you're good enough for the whole nation to enjoy. and the food there was amazing, yo. well... the french fries and the popcorn, i can't say too much about the New York style pizza though, i still think new york does new york style the best, LOL.

beach volleyball, classic asian style BBQ and some spark creating action from my new survival tool from think geek, the SL3 Survival Fire Knife. :D

So all was good actually, only the lack of proper equipment during the sleep deducted points from my experience. so if next time i go fully prepared, i'll rank it an A+

Here are some pics, i'll probably only post up like a few, the rest will be on facebook, if you friended me of course.
