Still waiting...

Well, Dad postponed the road trip to next weekend. Not too upset, maybe disappointed. I still want to see him before school starts and all, so I'm going up north to see him this weekend anyhow. Taking Golden Gate Transit, so I have to figure out, if I go to RTA, what bus I'll need to catch where... and when. It's leaning towards the Transbay Terminal in the late evening, something like 8 o'clock, but I have an old schedule, so I need to doublecheck-- and get cash for tomorrow. Not to mention-- what do I bring?

Dad was teasing me about Joe too. -.-; I think I have to explain a few things to him, which is never a perfectly appetizing idea... you know, explaining those kind of things to PARENTS? But somehow my dad strikes me as more understanding (!) than my mom.

Oh yeah, finished reading Battle Royale. The full review... is...
( here. )

Hey, Walgreens recycles batteries! WHOOHOO! We can finally get rid of this huge box of batteries that probably weighs more than I do! YATTA!

>_> 7 loads of laundry, two of them mega-sized, and Joe's nice enough to let me do them at his house, for free. -.- That's nice of him and all, but I seriously feel like I'm exploiting the poor guy (not to mention his parents). Yeesh, I hate to think of all the heat, electricity, and water I'm going to use... maybe I should put a few loads back in my room? o_O

Hey, I have 2755 HiPoints! But there's nothing good to redeem my portfolio for... yet. @_@ Still, the prospect is exciting! Free stuff! =D

I better drag my boombox in here now and get working on the dishes. Mata~

P.S. I had a really weird dream last night again. If I remember it later on, I'll tell you about it.

From her to him to me to you

Alcatraz - Voices in the former eating area as well as the cell blocks are heard when no one else is around. Footsteps and the sounds of cell doors opening and closing also echo throughout the corridors. People have reported feeling "cold spots" in certain areas and the feeling that they are not alone, even when they are.

Bay Bridge - While driving on the lower deck at night towards Oakland direction, drivers would hear knocking on the windows. Some saying that they saw a headless man running next to their cars at the same speed of the cars. He was believed to be the victim of the 1989 earthquake.

CCS Elementary School - There is an urban legend of an elderly church-going woman who was murdered by being pushed from a steep staircase, and whose body was later disposed of in the nearby dumpster. It is said that when young girls use the bathroom near the staircase, you can hear her praying. Hail Mary...

Golden Gate Park - There's a police officer ghost that roams Golden Gate Park. People will get pulled over and get speeding tickets by this guy, but when they go to file it through the courts they'll find out that the officer listed doesn't exist. He's been dead for 10 years. Anyway, the story goes that if a cop in the park is trailing you, you need to go outside of the park first before you pull over. And once you do, the ghost cop will disappear.

Haskell House - ghost of Senator Broderick pacing back and forth.

Ocean Beach Sutro Bath - The sutro baths have quite a history behind them, as well as the tunnel that lies directly to the right of the old sunken building. It has been said that many people have been sacrificed at the end of this tunnel, and if you go at nightfall and light a candle at the end of the tunnel someone will come and pick it up and throw it into the water that rushes up just beyond the rocks.

Orchard Supply Hardware - There is a story of girl being murdered and raped in the warehouse area of the store 1 yr before it became Orchard. Employees have seen a figure walking and she is heard footsteps that seem to be the sound of high heels (No one wears high heels), screaming and laughing, as well as boxes moving. She likes to blow in men's ears and girls with long hair often feel a slight tug. One report of a worker that had just shrinkwrapped a pallet. The power went out and there is a 5 sec delay for the generator
to kick on in that 5 sec something completely unwrapped the pallet.

Queen Anne Hotel - Located at the corner of Sutter And Octavia, the Queen Anne Hotel is an elegant Victorian style hotel, which dates back to the 1890's. With free access to all of the floors and some of the rooms, it's a great place to perform an investigation. If you want you can spend a night or so in Miss Mary Lakes Room. Before the hotel even was a hotel, it was a school for girls since few girls had access to schools back then. Miss Mary Lake was the teacher. She was dedicated to her work. But when the school was closed down she was heart broken and as she eventually died. Her spirit remained. Room 410 top floor is where you can find her room.

San Francisco Arts Institute - Supposedly built on a cemetery in the early 1900 after an earthquake, it is haunted by a few restless
spirits.

Strawberry Hill - Stowe Lake Golden Gate Park - It has been said that in the 1920's or 30's a woman became pregnant & hide the pregnancy from her family. She disposed of the child and killed her self in the reservoir. At night if you're at Stowe Lake you may see her walking around Strawberry Hill looking for her baby.

The Mansions Hotel- The ghost of the original owner's daughter, Claudia, can be seen and heard by staff and guests. She has also been known to communicate to "yes" and "no" answers.

Trinity Episcopal Church - Reports a gray figure coming out of the men's bathroom and disappear through the wall on the other side of the hall. Also experienced, strange drafts, 3 directional; shadow of a person, and an apparition in a white suit.

USCF Medical Center - Intensive Care Nursery - haunted by women that have died in childbirth. Many children haunt Pediatric. 8th floor was so bad it had to be exorcised.

Washington High School - It has been said that the boy's 3rd floor restroom, is haunted. At night, or at later hours after school (when not as many people are around), people have reported seeing a figure standing by one of the stalls then vanish.
No wonder why I didn't know about this one... you'd have to PAY me to go into the boy's bathroom! I'd need scuba gear...
