#the 30 minute drive is not ideal but it is basically almost entirely highway driving so there’s that ig

ugh okay so yesterday i had a phone interview with a local alarm system response company and today i had a virtual interview where i did a personality assessment, a logic assessment, and a typing test and miraculously i did well so i have another official legitimate virtual interview on thursday and i’m excited because this is basically a call center/office job and my chronically ill body would absolutely adore such a thing so fingers crossed it all works out because while i basically have a guaranteed job at burger king and while bk is 15 minutes closer it doesn’t pay as much and also bk will be extremely labor-intensive which is a big yikes for me lmao

This is me talking through a decision so if you stumble upon this post, keep scrolling, not worth your time lol.

I kinda wanna join the AMC Stubs A-List but kinda don’t.

100% I see how it is an awesome deal and pays for itself almost immediately.

And the timing works out well. Like I would only want a summer subscription I think. It has a 3 month commitment, then if you stop you have to wait 6 months to join again. Okay so basically. I can just do it every summer when I’m on summer break?? I feel a little late to the party this summer though because this is my 3rd week of summer break and I have 6 weeks left. Like ideally if I were to do this next summer, I would start the subscription in June instead of mid July!!

And I 100% need more things to do by myself during summer! And it’s perfect for like an afternoon activity after summer school. And we have gotten sooo much rain this summer and it’s a good rainy day activity.

But idk. I’m not a big movie person! There are truly not a lot of movies I’m dying to see in theaters. Or ever. Like I would absolutely not be the person to watch 3 movies/ week every week. But I am sure I could find the at least 2 per month needed to break even. Even if they are ones that I wouldn’t normally see.

Even this summer, there’s quite a few I’d want to see, but a lot of them are the Disney re-releases and I’m not sure if I can justify going to the movies every two weeks for movies I can watch for nearly free on Disney plus at home. I think I might go a couple times but I’m not sure. And then another movie I want is a $3-$5 older movie so I might as well pay that price lol.

And going to the movies means spending $$$ on snacks!! I know I could always eat beforehand or sneak in snacks myself, but part of the experience is the buttery popcorn and I would want to treat myself at least occasionally. But looking at the website it legit costs $20 just for a popcorn and drink. More than the ticket! Eek.

And I hate driving too. I don’t take the highway, so it’d take me 25-30 minutes instead of 15 to get there. And that’s not a bad drive at all, but like that would definitely keep adding up.

And I have a lot of trouble leaving the house. Intertia, driving anxiety, social anxiety, idk. But I’m just not sure if I can get myself going that often! I already have an amusement park season pass and I’m definitely going to get my money out of it, but I would be lying if I didn’t say it was really hard to actually get me out the door!!

There are other movies I am interested in throughout the year, like the upcoming new Disney movies. But they are so far apart that again I can’t justify it.

So I think this summer is a no, but I definitely want to keep it in mind for next summer. Assuming release dates don’t move around too much, there’s already a few movies I would be willing to see, like inside out 2 and despicable me 4. And I’m sure there will be other big summer movies. And they might also run summer movie camp thing again. So I’m sure I will have a thrilling movie summer.

I ended up joining the mid tier premiere level. Which is funny because when I first looked at it I was like wow that is pointless. I changed my mind. It’s $15 for the whole year and it waives the online convenience fees (over $2 per movie.) so I’m like okay I just need to go to 7 movies in the entire year to save some money (not to mention saving money with earned points and stuff). I think that’s more doable for me! I’ve already got my Barbie ticket as the first one. And you know what, if I don’t break even, $15 is a relatively small cost to eat

Climbing Hawaii - The Perfect Way in Which to Experience the Islands

At the point when my sweetheart and I were making arrangements for our first excursion to Hawaii we confronted a large number of similar inquiries most explorers do. What number of islands would it be advisable for us to visit? Which islands do we go to? What sights and attractions do we participate in? What about sea shores??

It happened to us that most voyagers, basically those that we were familiar with went to Maui or Oahu, or both. Visiting Honolulu, going to a luau, visiting Pearl Harbor and the Polynesian Cultural Center alongside Diamond Head and Waikiki turned out to be important for our plan as I am sure it has been for some.

All things considered, we have now visited the Islands twice and in spite of the fact that we ultimately saw Diamond Head and invested some energy in Waikiki we presently can't seem to go to a luau and have not seen Pearl Harbor or the Polynesian Cultural Center.

In the blink of an eye prior to finishing our outing, I beginning reasoning what may be the most ideal approach to really encounter the islands and their normal magnificence. I then, at that point, concocted climbing, did a lot of exploration on the web and at last bought The Hikers Guide to the Hawaiian Islands by Stuart M. Ball, which I strongly suggest.

In spite of the fact that my sweetheart and I are in acceptable actual shape; we work out, lift loads and love to walk; we have never really went climbing. I was more than fifty and her quick drawing nearer. One of the numerous things that spoke to me about climbing the islands was the absence of risky untamed life. There are no bears or noxious snakes or something like that. So we felt open to going off all alone and investigating the excellence that Hawaii brought to the table.

We took a 360 degree turn and arranged our excursion to Kauai and Hawaii (We would return the next year and climb Maui and Oahu) got some great climbing shoes, a rucksack, some downpour rain guards, bug repellent, stuffed our cameras and off we went.

A couple of tips I may share from our experience. Contingent upon where you are remaining, you might need to drive a significant distance to the path head. We drove somewhere in the range of 45 minutes to 4 hours to arrive at our objective. We began early every morning, normally by 5:30 so there was next to no traffic and we had the path essentially to ourselves (We would take ten climbs, two of which we never saw another sole) Bring a pullover, it is cool toward the beginning of the day. I viewed a mobile stick as staggeringly supportive because of the lopsided territory and the ceaseless trips and drops. Perhaps it was a result of the time we went out, however messes with were never an issue for us best time of day to hike the narrows.

The ten climbs we winding up taking (three each on Kauai, Maui and Hawaii; one on Oahu) were all somewhere in the range of 4 and 6.8 miles with rise gains somewhere in the range of 500 and 1600 feet and were viewed as amateur to halfway in level of trouble. Coming up next were our five top choices.

5) Pipiwai Trail, Maui - Often alluded to as the Oheo Gulch trail. Anybody setting out on an excursion to Maui should encounter the Road to Hana. It is viewed as one of Hawaii's should see attractions and is appraised #2 on America's rundown of most grand drives. One should venture to every part of the Hana Highway to arrive at the Pipiwai trail, there could be no different means. The actual distance is under 60 miles, however with it's around 600 clasp turns and 60 one way spans it took almost 3 to drive ceaselessly. It was near an extra hour drive past the town of Hana to the path head.

The actual climb is an extremely loosening up one, with an effectively voyaged and very much kept up with trail. The height gains are negligible and the distance (4 miles full circle) is entirely sensible and relying on how long you spend checking out the sights, can be finished in two hours.

You will stroll close by and across two extensions along the Seven Sacred Pools. The main other couple that we saw on this climb was swimming when we moved toward them. There is a bamboo timberland that towers 100 feet or more into the sky nearly shutting out all daylight and the path ultimately finishes at the 400 foot Waimoku Falls where we viewed as the ideal spot to eat. You should cross the stream to arrive at this point. Buy a modest pair of water shoes to make the intersection.

4) Kilauea Iki, Hawaii - Located in Hawaii Volcano National Park, this path is a four mile circle with a most extreme rise gain of 400 feet. It starts and finishes in a delightful tropical jungle which is so serene and quiet you never need to leave. The path is all around kept up with and the assortment of exceptional trees that you won't see elsewhere was a feature of this climb. That is obviously until you complete your decay to the Kilauea Crater.

This climb will take you across the cavity shrouded in magma more than 400 feet thick. You will pass many dynamic steam vents as you cross the harsh territory. You will see a lot of new development as it attempts to arise through the breaks in the magma and you can not help yet consider what it resembled back in 1959 when Kilauea emitted regurgitating lave just about 2,000 feet noticeable all around.

3) Awaawapuhi Trail, Kauai - situated in Kokee State Park, this was the most truly requesting of each of the climbs we took. At 6 miles with a rise gain of 1,600 feet we were completely depleted when we were done. Obviously this was our third day of climbing in succession, so that might have had something to do with it. Like the vast majority of the path we climbed, this one was extremely simple to follow. It gets going intensely lush and en route turns out to be less thick and a lot drier in scene. The feature of this climb is the point at which you arrive at the Nualolo Cliffs. The view from here is completely astounding; sheer bluffs with probably the most intriguing stone arrangements possible and only the excellent blue Pacific behind everything. There is an outdoor table making it the ideal spot to stop for lunch and partake in the view prior to taking off for your bring trip back.

We didn't actually see the 1600 foot rise contrast while arriving at this spot, yet you better accept we saw it on the return. Be ready, albeit extremely progressive (You have more than three miles to cross this height) it ends up being exceptionally overwhelming on occasion. For us it nearly appeared as though we could never observe the path head and when we at long last did, we sat in the vehicle depleted, yet happy we did it.

2) Waipoo Falls (Waimea Canyon), Kauai - There are a few climbs in the Waimea Canyon region, this one takes you to the highest point of the Canyon. It gets going on what gives off an impression of being a help street, at last transforms into a very much kept up with way and incorporates a genuinely simple to explore rough move towards the end. (Here is the place where a mobile stick becomes possibly the most important factor) The distance like so many of the climbs is four miles and in spite of the fact that you will end up at a rise of almost 3500 feet, must of this was concealed during the ride to the path head. You just wind up climbing a little more than 500 feet.

The perspectives on the Canyon from up top are astounding. The various tones of green, red and brown in the Canyon dividers can be seen until the end of time. You need to continue to take a large number of pictures and that is essentially what we did.

As far as I might be concerned, the most charming of the multitude of climbs.

1) Kalalau Trail - The path everybody discusses and films have been made of. The whole Kalalau trail is 22 miles in and out and you really want to gain a setting up camp license to finish. There are two days climbs that can be brought the path also. The eight mile climb to Hanakapiai Falls or the most regularly ventured out 4 mile climb to Hanakapiai Beach which is the climb we took.

Indeed, even the four mile climb can be trying to most. The territory is extremely sloppy and shaking and you should represent your balance consistently. You start to climb quickly through lavish tropical vegetation. Toward your left are the sheer precipices, on your right side, an abrupt drop to the Pacific Ocean. Albeit not to be trifled with, it isn't quite so risky as it would appear. I'm not totally alright with statures, yet felt sure on this climb. When you travel a distance of around one mile and arrive at a height of a few hundred feet the primary perspectives on the Napali Coast become noticeable and this by itself merits the whole excursion.
