Ever have one of those days where everything just seems to go your way?
This morning I got up and got myself ready to go into school. I'm about to walk out the door, hop into my car and go to pick up my friend, when I notice that theres a text on my phone saying that he wants to sleep in an extra hour. So I think to myself "Oh, well, since I'm up, I might as well get myself some breakfast." So I make myself some toast, not much, but hey, considering I usally don't get breakfast at all, its a good thing.
So I get to my friends house around eleven, pick him up, and we're off. My friends got me playing Magic the Gathering, and I was thinking it would be nice to get myself a planes walker(for those who don't know, a planes walker is a very rare card and is basically considered another player with powerful abilities that you control) so I asked my friend sitting next to me(as he knows more about the game than I do) what series of packs contain planes walkers. On a normal trip to school we stop at this little conveant store that has a card shop attached. A few days ago I bought a booster box, a box that contained... hold on let me check... 36 booster packs. That's a hell-of-a-lot of cards. Because I had just gotten all those cards, I figured I'd just spend like, ten bucks and get a few boosters of one of the series that has planes walkers, just in case I get lucky and pull one out of my a**. I walk into the card shop, and see that they have a "Fat Pack" of the series I was planning to get. So I think to myself "hmmmm, that isn't all that expensive, maybe I should pick it up." just as I think that, my friend looks up and says "Hey, they have a booster box for Loriwyn(the name of that particular series)?" the clerk grabs the box and guess what? it's the last one. I look over at him and he says "Ya know what, I think I'll get this."
So the clerk notices me glaring and asks "Want me to check if we have another one in the back?" "Yes please, that would be great." She goes back and what-do-ya-know, they have another one. We finish up at the shop and get to school. neither of us have any classes, we were basically there to hang out, so were else better to hang out than the pub? We plant ourselves in the lounge with the other guys who play magic, and start cracking open the boosters that come with the fat pack. He get's to his second pack, and what does he get? the green planes walker. I freak ans say "if I get something you want, I'm trading you for that card"
The next pack I get, I open it and my jaw drops, I held in my hand the white planes walker, but not only that, it was the holographic version. well, that card paid for the entire fat pack by itself. that made my day and it only got better from there.
Long story short(it was a long one) won 2 games against my friend Steeve, played texas hold'em with a few other friends and won the pot(we were playing with pennies), went home, decided to rollerblade down to the lake(lake Ontario in case you were wondering) got there and was blown away by the view(it was gourgous, shining water, no wind, clear sunny sky) the sand was cold but felt good on my bare feet, read the first chapter in the book that came with the fat pack(looks like a good story so far), got a sub on the way home and it tasted awsome!
All in all, today was the best day I've had in months, if not years.
