I had 6 hours from Albany to Darien Lake, which isn't a big deal, but then I drove back after the show because i had a final the next morning....i was proud of myself

I failed the final.

5 hours from NH to NYC this past summer to Randall Island

actually it included a one hour drive, a one hour subway ride, two 20 minute shuttle rides, a 5 hour bus ride,

then once i got there...

a 15 minute taxi ride, a half hour ferry ride, and a 15 minute walk.

then to actually arrive at the concert...

a 15 minute walk, half hour ferry ride, 20 min subway ride, half hour walk, 15 minute taxi ride

I dunno what it adds up to.....all this concludes is that i have too much time on my hands to type that....and that
